The year before last, there was a 20-year-old college student who came here to take pictures and collect style, and was arrested by the owner of a ranch to be a worker, and it took more than half a year before he was stabbed out, and after the rescue of the police, the college student finally went back with his family, but he also stayed in the ranch for more than half a year, tortured and intimidated, he went insane, and could only spend the second half of his life in a mental hospital.

I was amazed, "But such cases often happen, and even by the locals by default as a kind of ranch and farm shady, don't the police have any measures to curb it?" ”

The boss shook his head and sighed, "Opening a farm and ranch is not like opening the door to do business, there are many people in contact so it is easy to be discovered, how big do you think a farm is, every day is dealing with livestock, who will find out the secret?" The police, the inspector is so busy every day, how can he run to the farm and ranch to arrest people for no reason without receiving clues, isn't that nonsense? ”

I frowned, "Aren't there any examples of successful escapes among these people?" Since they are not crippled, they should have the ability to escape. ”

The boss didn't understand, and I explained it seriously, and he immediately laughed, "How do you run?" If you have been to the farm or ranch, you will know that the area is too large, if you want to run out, you have to go over the mountains, there is no food, and a foreigner is not familiar with the route, and if you don't starve to death, you will die by accident. ”

When I thought about the mountains in Yuelonggang that were several kilometers above sea level, I felt a burst of despair, and I just asked a brainless question.

The boss added, "And the farms and ranches will have very obedient and loyal sheepdogs, in addition to herding sheep and cattle, they also take care of the duty of keeping an eye on the workers, and they can't slip away." ”

At this moment, my heart is extremely heavy and complicated, and I guess that it is very likely that Xue Xiaxia is trapped in a certain farm and pasture, and the so-called farmer should not be an ordinary person.

I have speculated before that there are few people in the 2/3 of the plateau, so I don't think Xue Xiaxia will be controlled there, the northern part has a large population and a wide range of human activities, and it is likely that evil deeds will happen here.

I chatted with my boss a few more times and got on my motorcycle back to the police station.

Xiao Yuan is busy behind a pile of documents, and there are so many trivial things that a police officer of his level has to deal with every day, which is indeed not easy.

"Why did you come back and didn't find a clue?" He glanced at me, then kept his head down and went back to work.

"I'd like to ask you something." I sat down in the chair next to him.

His brow furrowed, "What's the matter?" ”

"There are a lot of farms and ranches in the north, can you show me the way, and give me another introduction, I'm going to go over and have a look."

Xiao Yuan was shocked when he heard this, and put down the ballpoint pen in his hand heavily, "What are you going to do over there, it's a place to raise livestock and grow food crops, it doesn't make sense for you to go there, you still go to the downtown area." ”

"I'll go, but I want to go over there now, there is no clear mark on the map, please draw me the route." I unfolded the map I had with me and looked at him with gratitude.

He didn't make a move, and said solemnly, "I advise you not to go over, the farms and ranches are all run by the local Rong people, their temperament is very bad, and they even say that they are a little barbaric and unreasonable, this is an autonomous region, you should understand a lot of unwritten rules." ”

I raised my eyebrows, deliberately making a blank look.

Xiao Yuan sighed deeply, "Let me tell you this, the Rong people are particularly xenophobic, if you go to hang out of someone else's farm and ranch as an outsider, they will definitely be very angry and expel you, and even say that they will do it, you still don't want to cause such trouble." ”

"It's okay, I'm not going to be so rude, and they're not going to beat me in the face." I cheekily asked him to help mark the route for me, but Xiao Yuan had no choice but to mark me a few directions on the map.

He was really simple, and although he didn't agree with me in the past, he still pointed me out the direction in detail.

I stepped on my motorcycle and set off towards the northern farms, and with the route that Xiao Yuan marked for me, it was naturally much easier to find.

Half an hour later, I entered the valley floor in the north, and there were endless fields and pastures as far as the eye could see, but this season did not have a green and vibrant feeling, there were more dry yellow colors, and it was a little worse to do mobile phone screensavers, but the feeling of spaciousness and comfort did make people can't help but relax comfortably.

I slowed down on my motorbike and walked along the edge of the farm pasture, where the sheep, cows, horses, and many other domestic animals and poultry were very lively.

Occasionally, I could see a few people at work from a distance, and I wasn't sure if it was the so-called controlled workers, or the workers and employers in the normal employment relationship.

But what I have seen so far has nothing to do with sin at all, and what puzzles me even more is that in this place with special geographical and climatic conditions, its breath is actually very natural, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Even now, I don't notice the special situation, I set up the formation in a place where I can't see people as I walk around, so that if something special approaches, I can receive the sense.

The area of the farm and pasture in the north is so large, and the breadth of the span is far beyond my imagination, and I barely ran around the places marked by Xiao Yuan, it was almost 10 o'clock in the evening, and I ate a few tea eggs brought from the fly house to satisfy my hunger, and at this moment on the way back to the police station, I was already hungry.

When I was about to arrive at the police station, Xiao Yuan called me, and as soon as I answered him, he asked anxiously, "Where have you been, so that you have to return the motorcycle before 10 o'clock, and now it has been 5 minutes, where are you?" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm on my way right now, I'll be there soon, 5 minutes at most." I cheekily laughed.

"Then hurry up." He was very unhappy and hung up the phone.

I rushed to the door of the police station, Xiao Yuan was already standing there waiting for me, his face was full of anger, but he was restrained and suppressed.

I stopped the motorcycle and handed him the car keys, he took it and said coldly, "How can I explain to the leader and the director if you do this, if something happens to you, it will involve two police stations and your family, have you considered these consequences?" ”

"Yes yes, I'm sorry, I didn't go anywhere else to fool around, I just went to the farm and ranch to take a look, it's too far, so it takes a lot of time, go, I invite you to eat meat skewers and apologize to you."

Xiao Yuan didn't want to go, I dragged him away, he was really too honest, he didn't even dare to use the motorcycle for work to and from work, saying that he would ride it when he had to commit a crime.

Yuelonggang's meat skewers are extremely delicious, although the cut is relatively rough, and each piece of meat is very thick, but, with special seasonings, coupled with their special barbecue method, I feel out of my soul after every bite.

Eating meat skewers, Xiao Yuan's mood gradually calmed down, but after only sitting for 20 minutes, he said that he had to go back and would have to go to work tomorrow morning.

"Don't worry, let's talk for a few more minutes, you haven't finished your drink yet!" I pointed to Sprite in front of him.

He glared at me a little unnaturally, "What else are you going to say?" ”

I coughed, swallowed the meat in my mouth, and asked with a full burp, "In the last year or two, have you handled any cases of missing people from other places?" And it has something to do with the ranch side of the farm. ”

Xiao Yuan's face was full of surprise, he frowned slightly, "How can the disappearance case have anything to do with the farm and ranch?" ”

I also knew before that he had been studying in a university in another place, and he was not from the Rong family, he usually lived a life of greenhouse flowers, and he probably didn't know much about the situation here, and he didn't know that these disappearances were also true, and he didn't lie to me.

I sniffed, "That's right, I was running outside today, and I heard that the rancher here will catch people from other places to work on the farm, and there was a college student who was caught in it and was rescued after half a year, and he has gone insane." ”

"How can there be such a thing? How I didn't know! Xiao Yuan was shocked, as if I was just a policeman.

"It's normal that you don't know, such cases are sealed in the file, if you can look it up, you can learn a lot." I looked at him meaningfully.

He was stunned for a few seconds, then shook his head very resolutely, and said angrily, "Let me go and check the file, what do you think?" Do you want me to take off my police uniform and stop doing it, it's a violation of discipline. ”

I waved my hand and signaled him not to be so excited, "I didn't ask you to steal the file, I just said that if you want to go deeper and understand it, you should check it, which will help you solve the case in the future, this is a good teaching material, and you can't buy the experience of solving the case with money." ”

"Shut up!" Xiao Yuan was very angry, "If you say this kind of thing again, then I won't assist you in your investigation anymore." ”

I hurriedly pretended to be scared and apologized to him and begged for mercy, in fact, letting him check the file is not the only way, I can investigate it myself first, this Leng Touqing is quite principled, and I don't want to involve him.

When I left, Xiao Yuan was not relieved, and I felt a little guilty when I saw him go away.

I went back to the hotel alone, it was almost 12 o'clock at this time, I walked in and saw that the front desk lady was secretly surfing the Internet, I walked over, and she was so scared that she stood up immediately.

Seeing that it was me, she was suddenly a little embarrassed, "Sir, do you need anything?" ”

I leaned against the front desk and said with a smile, "It's nothing, just came back from outside, are you on duty alone tonight?" ”

She looked at me a little puzzled for a few seconds, and realized that I didn't mean to find fault, so she nodded, "Yes, I'm alone, the hotel is not big, and there are a total of three people at the front desk who take turns to work." ”
