Zhu Chen had been frowning slightly to listen to me, and after I finished speaking, he immediately turned his face to look at me, "Then you mean that this case was committed by the devil?" ”

I smiled and patted him on the back, "Captain Zhu hasn't known me for long, and he was completely infected by my thinking, I hope it won't affect your judgment!" ”

Zhu Chen smiled embarrassedly, "How can there be, in fact, I heard you say that there has been no news of this case for so many years, and there is no trace of their movements, so I expected that this case is definitely not normal." ”

"What if it's normal?" I looked ahead with my arms crossed.

"If this case is normal, there is only one possibility, that is, they were killed as soon as they left the factory, and the bodies were covered up or disposed of, so the range of activities and movement trajectory they left behind will not be long."

I nodded, "I've also had an analysis like yours, and I'm not sure about it, so I'll come over and investigate." ”

"It just so happens that I have time, or I'll go with you to visit and investigate, it will be more convenient to use my identity."

"Just because you are using your identity as a police officer to investigate, other people's answers to you will be different from the answers I get from chatting with ordinary people, and the reason why I chose to come alone this time is because I want such an effect."

Zhu Chen immediately understood what I meant, "Okay, then I'll put you down when I get there, I'll go back first, and you can call me if there's a situation." ”

"Okay, thank you Captain Zhu."

When I arrived in Mangzhen, it was almost 7 o'clock in the evening, this town is indeed quite small, just one street, and you can almost see the head at a glance.

There are very few shops and stalls in the town, and judging by the clothes of passers-by, it gives me a feeling of the 90s, and it is indeed a very backward economy, probably because they are a little complacent.

After asking a few passers-by, I spent three yuan to take three rounds of electricity to Wang Haitang's village.

As soon as I entered the village, I was enveloped by a strange feeling, and at this time the villagers had finished their meals and were sitting at the door to rest, and when I walked by, they looked at me as an outsider with strange eyes.

I saw that the family was kinder, so I walked over and told them that I was Wang Haitang's cousin, and I came to show her the house, and by the way, I asked about the situation at home.

The male host is a man in his 40s, and when he heard that I was Wang Haitang's cousin, he immediately frowned, "Do you know where his parents went?" I haven't come back for so many years, but it's hard for the child. ”

"I really don't know their whereabouts, and I came back this time to help her ask about the situation at the police station, and then ask the people around her to see if there are any clues."

The man said "oh", and then shook his head, "This person, I'd rather be bitter at home than go out to work, anything can happen, you see Wang Haitang's parents haven't earned money for a few years, but their lives are gone." ”

"Big brother, do you mean there's a good chance they're dead?" I asked, suspiciously.

The man was stunned for a moment, and the daughter-in-law next to him glared at him fiercely, "Don't talk nonsense, maybe people will come back!" ”

The man smiled unnaturally, "Yes, I can't think so arbitrarily that they are dead, it's just that they have been lost for so many years, everyone in the village says so, and there is no news from the police station." ”

I nodded, and then chatted with them about the situation of Wang Haitang's family.

They said that Wang Haitang's parents are honest farmers, all rely on farming, raising livestock to live, a few years ago with a young man in the village to work in other provinces, it is said that at the beginning was not bad, often send money to the family, during that time Wang Haitang also used the money to buy some furniture, life is also very good.

But unexpectedly, she lost contact later, and the people in the village helped her go to the police station to report the case, and she never saw anyone alive or dead, which is quite embarrassing.

I asked the man to take me to the home of the young man who went to work in other provinces with Wang Haitang's parents, and the young man was still working in other provinces, and his family received me very warmly, and then helped me call him.

Because he was still working there and couldn't answer the phone, I waited at their house for more than half an hour.

In the past half an hour, his family also told me a lot about Wang Haitang's family, which was the same as what the previous man said, and there was nothing special.

At that time, Wang Haitang's parents felt that it was not a matter to farm at home all the time, so they wanted to go out to work to earn some money, and when Wang Haitang reached the age of marriage, he could get the money, so he bought her a decent dowry, so he went.

They also said that Wang Haitang is a very well-behaved little girl, although she can't study, and she has been working at home since graduating from junior high school, but she doesn't have any bad hobbies, and she works diligently at home, which is very likeable.

At this time, the young man finished work, called me back, and talked to me in detail about the situation of Wang Haitang's parents in the past few years.

They work in a plastic products factory in another province, starting at 8 a.m. and ending at 9 p.m. every day.

Occasionally, they would call the young man out for dinner, but that was rare, because everyone was busy.

In this way, without warning, they heard that they were quitting their jobs, and the young people asked them if they had found a better place, and they all smiled and shook their heads and said that they didn't have it yet, but they didn't want to do it.

There is no reason to ask the reason, and it is not because it is too hard, too tired and too monotonous, or the salary is too small, in short, I don't want to do it.

At that time, the young man was still a little angry in his heart, thinking that they had quietly found a better place, but he didn't want to tell him, for fear that he would get rich with the past, but he didn't expect them to embark on a road of no return.

According to the young man, both of them were very friendly to others, and they had not had any conflicts with anyone during the years of working in the factory, so they suddenly disappeared, which made everyone feel special and incredible.

After hanging up the phone, I chatted with them for a while, and I was ready to leave when it was not too early, but the enthusiastic family insisted on staying with me, and I politely declined.

They asked the man to send me to Wang Haitang's door.

Wang Haitang's house is the same as other villagers', it is an inconspicuous building in the whole village, it is a small building with 2 floors, and there are pigsties, warehouses, utility rooms and so on next to it, which is quite clean at first glance.

The man sighed deeply, "You see that this good family is falling apart like this, leaving only Wang Haitang alone, it's good, she can go to you." ”

I nodded, "Yes, I will take care of her, and thank you for taking care of her all these years." ”

"These are all as they should be, I just hope to get the news of his parents as soon as possible, otherwise this good person will be gone in this world, and no one will be sure."

"I'm sure it will come soon."

We had a brief chat, the villagers left, and I took out the keys and tried a few times before opening the gate.

A slightly damp smell came to my nose, which is also normal, and there will be some damp smell when the house is not occupied for a while.

I walked in and opened the door to the main house, fumbling for the switch to turn on the light.

In the house you see, there are indeed a few pieces of furniture that look relatively new, and the home is also very clean and organized.

I went to the pigsty next to it, the house with miscellaneous items, and the warehouse, where there were some dry corn and other things, which especially smelled of rural life.

As I walked, I seriously felt the breath of the whole yard, everything was normal, there was nothing complicated.

I went back to the second floor of the main house, the door was locked, and I opened it with the key and walked in.

On one side is Wang Haitang's parents' room, on the other side is Wang Haitang's room, although her parents' room has not been back for many years, but the bedding cabinet is very neat, it can be seen that Wang Haitang often wipes, is indeed a very careful girl.

I sat down in my chair and pulled out the old desk, which contained some old photographs, needles and threads and things like that.

From the photos, I saw what Wang Haitang's parents looked like when they were young, which is quite similar to what I remember.

Now the memory is fixed on that time.

I put the picture back in the drawer, closed my eyes and silently felt the breath of this house.

After ten minutes, I opened my eyes and left the room, it was very clean, and it didn't look like it had been polluted by evil things, which meant that his parents were out there, and it wasn't because they were entangled by demons here, so the accident happened.

Wang Haitang's room has a little more girlish atmosphere, and it is also very tidy, I went in and came out after a circle, I locked all the room doors, and returned to the living room on the first floor, planning to sleep on the sofa for the night.

Tomorrow I will look around, visit more villagers, and then go to the town police station to ask about the situation, if there is no progress, I will be ready to go home.

I turned off the lights and lay on the sofa with my coat covered, and the night in the countryside was very quiet, a beauty and tranquility that the city did not have.

I began to sketch out what the villagers had told me about Wang Haitang's family, and I tried to piece them together to find a reasonable clue, but it didn't.

I suddenly remembered that this probably had something to do with feng shui, so I quickly got up and went to the yard, went out and walked around the house, and looked carefully for ten minutes, but the final result disappointed me.

Although their family's feng shui is not good, it is very ordinary, and there is no dangerous factor, so this makes it more certain that their accident happened after they went to other provinces.

I went back to the couch and lay down again, and soon after that I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up, it was already dawn, and I looked at my phone at 6:50 in the morning.
