Chapter 2: Departure to Huangjia Village
Huang Dafeng and the four villagers were very nervous when they mentioned the case, Huang Dafeng's face was a little ugly, frowned, and said, "That's the case...... In the mountains north of our village, there is a small village called Huangjia Village. These days, something strange suddenly happened in Huangjia Village, and there are always villagers who disappear inexplicably. ”
Xia Yong asked, "What do you mean by disappearing inexplicably?" ”
Huang Dafeng said: "These villagers used to live here, farming and hunting during the day, and returning home at night, even if someone went into the mountains for a few days, they would come back, but now some villagers suddenly disappeared in the mountains, and after going into the mountains to hunt, they are gone, and they can't be found." ”
Xia Yong said: "How many people are missing? ”
Huang Dafeng said: "More than a dozen, if it is said that there is an accident, it is inevitable that people in the mountains will have accidents, some have fallen down the ravine, some have encountered poisonous snakes and beasts, these things have happened before, but it is impossible for so many people to happen to have accidents." ”
Liu said coldly: "Why didn't you report the case earlier." ”
Huang Dafeng heard Comrade Liu's tone was very stern, as if he was holding himself accountable for his work, he was a little scared, and hurriedly explained: "Comrade Liu, that's the case, their village only came to me half a month ago to report the case, saying that a few people were missing in the mountains, and when I received the report, I immediately took more than 20 experienced people to search the mountains to find people, and I searched the mountains for three days and three nights, but found nothing. ”
Xia Yong said: "Didn't you find any clues? Such as items carried by the missing person, shoe prints, or any other traces. ”
Huang Dafeng scratched his head and sighed, "We have found a few toe toes in different places!" There were a few things they had brought, but none of them had been found! We searched everywhere they had been, and we brought several dogs, but we couldn't find anything. I've lived here for more than 20 years, and it's the first time I've encountered something like this. ”
Comrade Liu glared and asked Huang Dafeng: "Why didn't you report the case to the city at that time?" ”
Huang Dafeng whispered: "At that time, I didn't see any clues, and it was common for villagers to go into the mountains for a few days, and I couldn't be sure what was going on, so I didn't dare to trouble the comrades in the city, and I wanted to wait for a while to take a look." He continued: "Inspector, you don't know, the countryside is like this, the poor mountains and bad rivers are out of the people, and the small village in Huangjia Village is always in chaos, either there is something here or that, often nothing happens, and in the end there is nothing to do, and in the end there is nothing to do, and I can't report all these undetermined cases to the city." I thought at the time, the missing villagers in Huangjia Village might come back in a few days, so I asked them to look for it again, but I didn't expect that half a month later, that is, three days ago, their village hurriedly came to report the case again, it turned out that the missing people not only did not come back, but more villagers disappeared! The villagers who first disappeared had been missing for a month, and as soon as I saw that something had happened, I immediately called the city to report the situation. The inspectors came so fast, they arrived here in three days, and I didn't expect that even the famous summer team would come here to solve this case in person! ”
Comrade Liu's face was still ugly, and he asked, "Have any outsiders been here recently?" ”
Huang Dafeng said: "No, the villagers of these ten miles and eight villages go into the mountains every day, and I have never heard of anyone who has seen a suspicious person coming. We are remote and poor, except for the barren mountains and there are no valuable products, except for those who visit relatives, few outsiders come, and I have not seen outsiders come in the past six months. ”
Comrade Liu raised his hand to the north and said, "Is Huangjiacun in that direction?" ”
Huang Dafeng was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Yes!" The inspector is so good, even know this?! ”
When Comrade Liu saw that his guessed position was correct, his expression suddenly became even more gloomy.
Xia Yong looked at Comrade Liu, and suddenly felt surprised and suspicious in his heart, Comrade Liu was here for the first time, obviously he already knew something about the case, and he was wearing a strange black backpack, this case didn't seem to be simple, what was the truth?
Xia Yong was originally investigating other cases in the city, but he suddenly received a notice from the Municipal Public Security Bureau two days ago and was temporarily transferred here, and his task was to assist two experts from the Municipal Public Security Bureau to solve the case. Therefore, he did not know anything about what was happening here, and he was only friends with Comrade Liu and Qiu Tian.
Xia Yong felt that these two "experts" were strange, but he still had to assist them.
Comrade Liu had a gloomy face and said to Huang Dafeng: "Has anything strange happened here?" ”
This question stopped Huang Dafeng, even Xia Yong and Qiu Tian were stunned, and Huang Dafeng said puzzledly: "Comrade Liu, what do you mean...... What's weird? ”
Comrade Liu said coldly: "For example, it is haunted. ”
Liu Laosan, who was standing in the corner, was interested when he heard this, and said excitedly and nervously: "...... I heard that the mountains on the other side of Huangjia Village are haunted by wild ghosts, and those missing villagers have all encountered ghosts in the mountains......"
Comrade Liu walked up to Xu Laosi, glared at him, and said, "You saw it with your own eyes? ”
Liu Laosan hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, I heard from others." ”
Comrade Liu was very angry and said: "Don't talk nonsense if you haven't seen it!" ”
Police Officer Liu scolded on the side: "Liu Laosan, don't talk nonsense!" What the hell?! The city inspectors are here to handle the case, how can you talk nonsense about those feudal superstitions! ”
Huang Dafeng also said: "Liu Laosan, don't talk nonsense in front of the inspectors!" You usually like to talk about these nonsense things, no one cares about you, and now you dare to talk nonsense?! We searched the mountains around Huangjia Village for three days and three nights, and you didn't go, where did you see the ghosts? How can there be ghosts and gods in this world? It is a crime to preach feudal superstition in front of inspectors! It's going to be in a prison cell! ”
Liu Laosan's frightened face turned pale and he was speechless, thinking that he had committed a big crime and was going to squat in prison, standing in place and trembling.
Comrade Liu had a gloomy face, a solemn expression, took up his black backpack, and said to Huang Dafeng: "Find me someone to lead the way, be familiar with the terrain here, and go to Huangjia Village now!" Let's go! ”
Huang Dafeng was surprised: "Ah, leave now?" He said, "Comrades don't need to be in such a hurry, do they?" I haven't eaten lunch yet. Inspector, you don't know, it's better to go to Huangjia Village or leave tomorrow morning. ”
Xia Yong said curiously, "Why tomorrow morning?" ”
Huang Dafeng explained: "Xia team, that's the case, this Huangjia Village is in the deep mountains in the north, there is only one small road, it is very rugged and difficult to walk, the road is very long, you can only rely on horseback riding and walking, even if we are the most familiar with the road here, it will take at least a day to go there." If the comrades leave now, they will definitely have to walk in the middle of the night, and it is very dangerous to walk at night in this big mountain. It's better to set off tomorrow morning and arrive at Huangjia Village before dark. ”
Police Officer Liu said with a smile on his face: "Yes, since the comrades are all here, take a good rest first, recharge your energy, and then you can solve the case when you go." ”
Comrade Liu made a straight face and said, "Let's leave now, we can't delay!" ”
Xia Yong said: "Yes, we will leave now, we can't wait." ”
When Huang Dafeng and Police Officer Liu saw that Comrade Liu and Xia Yong insisted on leaving, they secretly complained bitterly and did not dare to stop them, Comrade Liu looked serious and said, "You two stay behind and take care of the work here, you don't need to go." We will deal with the affairs of Huangjia Village, and now quickly find someone who is familiar with the situation here to guide us. ”
Huang Dafeng nodded and said, "Ah, okay." He pointed to the second pillar and said: "Inspector, this kid is fine, he has been playing in the mountains since he was a child, he often goes to Huangjia Village, he is very familiar with the environment, he is young and strong, and he is very clever." ”
Huang Dafeng asked Liu Laosan and Bald Head to prepare horses, and after a while, they brought four horses back, although they were all old, weak, sick and disabled, they were already the best in the township.
