Chapter 34: Six Years Ago
"This is the fibrous tissue on the clothes of the deceased, and the blood stains are also of the deceased." The medical examiner shook his head in disappointment.
"Let's get here today, and we'll sort out the case tomorrow morning."
Li Zhe subconsciously rubbed his hands, and then slowly opened his eyes, and the strong sunlight shone in through the gaps in the curtains, since that incident, I often dream of the past. After a simple wash and meal, I drove the broken locomotive.
This archive room is in the corner of the Public Security Bureau, and when I came in through the side door, the old man in his forties was dozing off, and when he saw me come in, he didn't blink his eyelids. Li Zhe dropped a cigarette and threw it in, and the old man smiled and said, "Xiao Li, here?" ”
Looking at the old man's smoky yellow teeth, Li Zhe said: "You still smoke five yuan of Honghe, your old boy's salary is not less than mine, and I don't know how to smoke some good ones!" With that, Li Zhe ignored the old man and walked straight towards the archives. There was also a faint muttering voice from the old man: "I am a person with children and grandchildren, I can save ...... if I can"
It's a quiet place, hardly anyone comes, and the huge archive room is quietly located here, and basically it's just me and the old man in this place at the end of the day.
Coupled with a college student who just came for an internship not long ago, to be honest, what kind of era is the 21st century, the Internet age. The files are all in the network and storage, there is a computer, there is a network cable, as long as you have permission, you can't find what you want to check, why bother to come here?
But paper information should also be preserved, after all, sometimes the network is not so reliable, the so-called double insurance. Then there are the case manuscripts that have survived in the past when there was no Internet, some of them are older than me, and they are quietly placed like that, and some have not been turned over for more than ten years or even decades.
Pushing open the door of the archive room, the little intern girl who had just arrived had arrived. Li Zhe said hello, but saw that the little girl was lying on the table seriously, flipping through a file casually, and was looking at it attentively.
Li Zhe thought to himself about the huge archive room, you little girl is not afraid to say it alone, thinking of this, Li Zhe tiptoed behind her. At a casual glance, I saw the contents of the file, and it turned out that the little girl was looking at a strange case that happened around Dongyang six years ago.
At that time, he had just arrived in Dongyang, and it was the first murder he personally encountered.
In the town around Dongyang, there are four or five hundred people, but among these four or five hundred people, almost half of the young and middle-aged people have gone out to work, leaving only some old people and women, and some older children. I don't go to school, I chase me in the village all day long, and it's so lively. The summer day is still bright, and a few big boys will ask me and me to play at the entrance of the village.
The adults didn't bother to care, but who would have thought that on this day, a few older children had a whim, and one of the seven or eight-year-old children, who was already relatively old, said to these little children with an average age of four or five years old: "Do you know what is in the dry well behind our village!" ”
As soon as the words of the child king came out, everyone had different opinions, and a little kid with snot said: "My grandmother said that there are monsters living in it, and she never let me get close, saying that she specializes in eating children, and my grandmother saw it with her own eyes last time!" ”
Another little girl with a dirty head also said: "That's right, my grandma also told me so, and I heard that there are monsters too!" "Miscellaneous voices came out, saying that there were monsters, some said that it was not a monster, it was a big insect, and some said that it was impossible to get out if it entered.
In short, adults don't let children get near the dry well. This is not surprising, the dry well has been a lot of years, how to say that it has been hundreds of years, and it has long been dry. In addition, it is now all running water, and gradually the area around the well is also deserted.
The adults said this, it is nothing more than that they are afraid that these children will be playful, and they will fall into the well for a while, and they will fall out of a good way, but no one will fill the well or anything, after all, it will be okay for a long time, and no one will care.
The boy king said, "You are cowardly, whoever is bold, come with me to the dry well behind to see, I just want to see what this monster looks like!" "This child Wang is young, it is the age when a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and the more dangerous the place, the more I want to see it.
Someone is leading, this group of children is like herding sheep, one by one you chase me and I drive yours to the dry well, but after all, I have heard too many stories of monsters, and the children are also frightened, no one dares to go forward, just look inside from a distance. This kid king is also a little timid, but he has to show his ability at the critical moment.
Thinking of this, the seven or eight-year-old child said with a little fear: "You cowards, look at me! ”
As he spoke, the child king walked to the dry well, and some of the bold ones also followed the child king to the dry well, and when he reached the dry well, he could faintly see a path beside the dry well. It's just that it's overgrown with weeds, but it seems that something has passed by, and the weeds on this path have traces of lodging towards the side of the dry well. But the children's attention is on the dry well, where these details are noticed.
Walking slowly and slowly, they also came to the side of the dry well, and everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to look into the well. The child king was angry at this time, and he gritted his teeth and stomped his head over, but at the moment his eyes were closed, and he didn't seem to feel anything, so the child king opened his eyes.
It didn't matter if he opened his eyes, but he scared the children around him enough, and he saw that the child Wang vaguely seemed to see something, and said "ah" loudly, and just wanted to run back, but he made a mistake in his busyness, and he fell directly into it. Although the mouth of the well is not very big, how old can a seven or eight-year-old child be, it is directly submerged in the well, but the shouting persists for a long time.
The children were completely fried, and they scattered and fled one by one, and many children were crying and shouting: "The two donkeys let the monster eat, and the two donkeys let the monster eat." "The nicknames of children in the countryside are cheap, but the names of the two donkeys are very literary and artistic, so I won't reveal them.
At this time, the villagers have all gotten up, and they should go to the ground, feed the pigs, and cook the pigs. No one could have imagined that not long after they got up, they heard a group of children crying and shouting and running towards their home. No one knew what was going on, so they hurriedly asked these little boys, only to know that the relationship was that the two donkeys fell into a dry well.
But this is not a trivial matter, the villagers who learned about the situation hurriedly ran to the dry well, especially the grandfather of the two donkeys, his son and eldest grandson are in the field.
The wife went early again, but he lived with this little grandson, which can be said to be a knot in the grandfather's heart, no matter how much he pampered, now he heard that he fell into the well, and he was anxious to jump up and down.
