Chapter Twenty-Three: The Strange Toilet

The village party secretary counted the missing people in Dongshigu Village with great speed, and when it was time for dinner, the village party secretary claimed to the special case team that no one in the village was missing. They set up a dinner party and just wanted to send the special case team away as soon as possible.

The task force was outraged by their sloppiness, but there was nothing they could do.

Gao Ride, the head of the township, said: After eating, we ordered wine and food.

The village party secretary brazenly sneered and said: Anyway, it's public money.

Professor Liang asked everyone to scrape together some money and handed it to the village party secretary, he said: These are the food money, and by the way, the rent has also been paid, please ask your village committee to clean up two rooms, our special case team plans to live in this village, and will never leave without investigating clearly.

Hualong quietly gave a thumbs up to Bao Chu and Su Mei, and said: I just like this old man's stubbornness.

Gao Ride and the village party secretary did not feel embarrassed, but felt incredible, this was the first time since the two of them served as grassroots cadres that they had encountered people who refused to eat and drink at public funds and were willing to pay out of their own pockets.

After dinner, the four members of the special case team moved into the duty room of the village committee.

Professor Liang called to inquire, and the local police, the provincial department and the relevant departments had made no progress in the investigation in the other three villages, but the forensic team's further inquest report revealed that the eight deceased's clothing fibers contained mineral powder, which was an element of carbon after testing. Eight bodies were buried in the wilderness, and the excavated soil contained no coal, suggesting that the deceased may have been engaged in excavating, transporting, selling, loading and unloading coal.

The special case team discussed the case, and the common views of everyone on this case are as follows:

1. There is more than one murderer, eight corpses, and the time span of the murder is large, it is unlikely that one person will complete the entire criminal process of killing, transporting, burying, and removing the body.

2. The identity of the murderer is a farmer, or a person who has lived in the countryside for a long time, which can be analyzed from the way the body is stacked.

3. The murderer is very familiar with the geographical environment of the burial place, and should also be familiar with the surrounding villages.

4. Coal dust was found on the clothes of the eight deceased, and most of the villagers in Dongshigu Village went out to work and engaged in manual labor of digging coal, and the special case team was even more determined to investigate the direction: the murderer is very likely to be in this village!

Because the eight deceased were buried in the wasteland, and the bodies were all Fǔ Bài and their faces were difficult to identify, Professor Liang planned to have the villagers identify the deceased's clothes the next day

, hoping to confirm the identity of the deceased.

That night, Su Mei encountered something that made her creepy.

There is a public toilet outside the courtyard wall of the village committee, which is extremely dirty, the thatched pit is made of stones, and it is not easy to distinguish between the men's and women's toilets.

In the middle of the night, Su Mei had diarrhea, although she was scared to go to the toilet outdoors, but she was too embarrassed to wake up Hualong and Bao Qi, so she had to go to the toilet alone.

The signs on the wall were chaotic, and it was impossible to distinguish between the men's and women's toilets at night, and Su Mei shouted softly, Is there anyone inside?

No one answered in the black and slimy toilet, Su Mei couldn't hold it back, she couldn't care so much, so she just found a toilet and walked in.

Su Mei was wearing a pair of tight pencil pants, her legs were even more sexy and slender, she took off her pants, squatted down, frowned slightly, and after a splashing sound, Su Mei was relieved, and at the same time felt shy, the voice was too loud in the night. Su Mei moved her steps, and her high heels stepped on the stones of the pit, and she would slide down if she was not careful.

There were a lot of cigarette butts on the floor, and cigarette packets that had been wiped on the buttocks.

Su Mei muttered in her heart: Damn, I went to the wrong toilet.

There are several gaps in the toilet partition wall, and the mud between the brick joints is easy to poke open, and some of the bricks have been loosened and can even be pulled out. Most of the toilets in rural areas have holes in the walls, thanks to the entertainment mentality of the villagers. Voyeurism gets a blatant release here. If you are in the men's restroom and look through a small hole in the wall to the women's restroom, you are likely to see an eye peeping into the men's restroom. What's even more amazing is that the two neighbors who have just greeted each other on the dirt road in the country are peeping at each other.

Su Mei felt that this toilet was a little strange, and she was afraid of being peeped at, so she didn't dare to lean close to the crack in the wall to see if there was anyone in the toilet next to her, and in the dark, she felt something touch her buttocks. Su Mei was so frightened that her soul was scattered, there are often such scenes in horror movies, when it is convenient for a woman, a hand suddenly stretches out in the urinal. She looked down and was no longer afraid, and there was a branch at her feet, perhaps by which she had accidentally touched it.

When Su Mei was about to stand up, there was an eerie laugh from the other side of the wall, and a hand suddenly reached out from the other side of the wall, and that hand grabbed the branch and stuck it in her head.

Su Mei screamed in fright and immediately ran out of the toilet and ran back to the village committee.

Painting Dragon and Bao Chop were awakened, Su Mei had palpitations, and told Painted Dragon and Bao Chop about what had just happened.

Su Mei said: Brother Hualong, my ass has been seen, there are hooligans in this village.

The painting dragon said: Damn, this is worth it, what about people?

Su Mei said: Now I may have run away while it was dark, and I didn't dare to look back.

Bao Chop said: You said that the man stuck a branch on your head?

Su Mei said: Yes, I also heard the man laughing, the smile was so terrifying, it scared me to death.

Bao Chu remembered that the corpse found in the soil hole in the river embankment had a reed stuck in its head. This person who peeps at the toilet also has an action of sticking a branch in someone's head, could this person be the murderer?

There was no one in the toilet anymore, and the two bricks on the wall were dragged out, and the man reached out from the hole in the wall and frightened Su Mei. There is a "human" intersection next to the toilet, and the person must not be able to run far, so Hualong and Bao Shu decided to chase separately.

Su Mei stood at the intersection, frightened, there was a small forest near the intersection, and there were several piles of corn and cotton stalks in the woods.

In the night, Su Mei vaguely saw a strange scene, something standing upright in the woods, judging from the figure, it looked like a skeleton or a dried corpse. The posture of this dry corpse walking around is very strange, the upper body does not move, the hands are lowered, and it walks forward little by little.

Su Mei shouted, the painting dragon was nearby, and when they heard the sound, the two of them walked into the woods to check.

There was no one in the woods, there was silence, and the moonlight was like water.

Hualong questioned: Are you dazzled and scared stupid?

Su Mei explained: I obviously saw something in the woods.

Drawing the dragon said: Hell yes.

Su Mei was a little scared, and grabbed the hand of the dragon tightly, she said: That thing is definitely not a person, and it is not like an animal.

The dragon took Su Mei's hand and continued to walk deeper into the woods, they bypassed a few firewood stacks, found nothing unusual, and after checking the last firewood stack, they looked around, and there was no figure in the moonlit woods.

Su Mei said: Will it hide in the corn stalks?

The dragon kicked the stacked corn stalks and threatened: Come out.

There was no one in the corn stalks, and Su Mei became nervous, holding the arm of the dragon with both hands.

Painting Dragon and Su Mei felt weird, and at this moment, there was an eerie sneer above their heads.
