Chapter 211: The Explanation of the Strange Disease
A cigarette can get the truth out of his mouth, and it's a pretty good deal.
"Deal!" I pulled a cigarette out of my pocket, lit it, and slowly shoved it into the guy's mouth.
The dwarf bit the cigarette butt and took a hard puff, an expression of enjoyment gradually appearing on his face.
When he was about to take a second puff, I deliberately took the cigarette butt a little away: "Sir, are you and that camel using corpses to engage in illegal activities of transporting drugs in this big mountain?" β
"Exactly, I have been in this business for almost thirty miles, and during this time, I have also accepted a lot of apprentices, relying on the corpse and this mountain as a cover, and I have never missed it for more than thirty years, but I didn't expect that this time it was planted in the hands of you, a descendant?" The dwarf couldn't wait to speak, and hurriedly opened his mouth to bite the cigarette butt directly in front of him.
In this way, the dragon did not deceive me.
Judging from the current situation, perhaps he will become one of the few people I can trust in this small mountain village.
I secretly jotted down what the dwarf said, and then continued to ask, "Very well, I want to ask you one more thing, what is the cycle of your corpses?" And how did you plan the route for each walk? β
"There is no fixed cycle, when the wind is tight, I don't go once for a few months, and when the wind is loose, I may go every three or five times. As for the route, it is chosen by me before each departure, there is no fixed route, and the villages where we settle are not the same, so that the police can not catch our movements. β
This old fox is really cunning, no wonder the provincial special task force sent more than a dozen groups of people to different villages to squat.
If it weren't for the fact that he happened to be met by Long Zaitian this time, I don't know what year and month he would have been able to catch.
After thinking about it for a while, the next question I want will probably be much more than the dwarf expected.
"Sir, in the recent past, have you ever lost the corpses you transported on the way to catch up with the poison?"
As soon as the words fell, the dwarf's suddenly froze, and then, his face became extremely ugly: "Hou Shengzi, you... How did you find out about this? β
I don't know? I guessed it through a close logical analysis, of course.
I vaguely remember the night he and the camel stayed at the hotel, and the camel seemed to mention a similar situation. At that time, I couldn't grasp the true meaning of the camel's words, and it wasn't until now that I understood the identity of the two drug dealers, and I was able to truly understand it somewhat.
"Regardless of how I know, tell me, what kind of drugs you lost at that time, and how did you lose them?"
If the names of the drugs he later mentioned were consistent with the list that Long Zaitian had written to me at that time, then what was happening in this village should have been as I had predicted, and the strange illness that had happened to those young people could be explained.
"Hey, why are you so curious? The batch of drugs shipped at that time was not simple, it was a chemical synthetic drug that had just been synthesized in the United States, if it was the full name, it was called subunit methylammonia, and there was an English name, it seems... β
"Don't talk about these things that you don't have, and just say what do you call that drug when you trade privately?"
After a while, the dwarf looked into my eyes and said word by word: "Bath salts, the lost batch is called bath salts, and buyers call it that!" That thing is newly developed, the cost is low, the effect is strong, that is, if the dose is not well controlled, it will kill people, so we don't dare to go more.
Unfortunately, the batch that was lost had not had time to be diluted, all of them were high-purity bath salts refined from the United Statesγγγγγ β
Bath salts!
Understood, everything is understood!
It is no wonder that that night, Li Zihang lost his mind, and then hallucinated, claiming that he saw the dead youth. No wonder he suddenly became crazy and suddenly wanted to attack me and Xiaoxue, no wonder he suddenly had a seizure, but the symptoms were similar to those of taking stimulants.
If I guessed correctly, the reason why Li Zihang became like this is because he accidentally ate the batch of "bath salts" that the dwarf lost at the beginning!
The so-called bath salts, or MDPV, are psychedelic drugs that have recently emerged in Europe and the United States.
As far as I know, bath salts are stimulant psychotropic drugs that inhibit norepinephrine, and when they were developed in 1969, they were an inconspicuous stimulant, but later it was proven that they can cause serious psychological and physical harm.
After taking bath salts, they make a zombie bite behavior, because it will increase the secretion of dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain, which is exciting, and at the same time hallucinations, delusions, and become powerful, the most terrifying thing is that people have violent tendencies, produce teeth grinding reactions, and even have the urge to "want to bite food".
What's even more terrifying is that bath salts are an extremely dangerous drug, with a potency of up to eight hours; Long-term use can cause failure of organs such as kidneys, liver and respiratory tract, and eventually lead to death. In this way, the strange behavior of the young people in the village before their deaths, as well as the bizarre state of death, also have a reasonable explanation.
However, whether the truth is as I guessed depends on the conclusion of a professional autopsy. But the problem is that the bodies of the twelve dead young men mysteriously disappeared from the cemetery, and their whereabouts are still unknown.
To this day, I still can't figure out how the other party stole their corpses, and where they hid them.
The dwarf took another puff of his cigarette and continued to mumble to himself: "To be honest, I didn't want to buy this dangerous goods at the beginning, after all, those who do our business are all pointing to those buyers to live, and if they want to die, they will all die, and no matter how much they are, they can't sell them." Du Te blamed the apprentices at that time for a while, saying that this kind of drug was highly profitable and widely sold, but it didn't come to fruitionγγγγγ β
"Alright, don't talk nonsense." I almost roared out this sentence, to be honest, looking at the guy in front of me who was tied to death by ropes and less than 1.2 meters tall, for a moment, I really wanted to pull out a pistol, and it ended his life.
In this small mountain village alone, there are twelve fresh lives, because he died of greed for a while. However, beyond the mountains, I don't know how many families have been torn apart because of the drugs he shipped out.
He didn't kill, but he committed crimes that were more horrific and more sinful than any serial killer I've ever seen in my life.
However, after all I had been through, I finally resisted my impulse, after all, even if I killed the dwarf, it would not help now. More than that, finding out the truth as soon as possible is the top priority, and as time goes by, I have a strong feeling that those guys who are hiding in the village are about to act.
"Regardless of how I found out, tell me honestly how I lost my things and what the situation was like?"
As soon as the words came out, the dwarf seemed to remember something extremely terrifying, and his face became very ugly. A guy like him, who has been licking blood at the knife for many years and has long abandoned life and death, would actually show such an expression, it seems that the situation at that time must not be simple.
After taking two more puffs of cigarette and forcibly suppressing the fluctuations in his heart, the dwarf spoke again: "That was a month ago, and it happened so strangely that I still don't understand what it was all about. β
That night, the dwarf and I took three apprentices and carried three corpses on my back, and sneaked into the mountain, intending to take advantage of the recent lack of wind to send out the batch of drugs that had just arrived.
The weather was similar to last night, with a light rain and a thick layer of fog in the mountains, which greatly hindered progress.
It was about four o'clock in the morning when one of the mutes suddenly had a stomach upset, so he temporarily put the body aside and hurried to a small forest on the side to relieve himself.
The dwarf watched the dumb man walk into the woods, although through the fog, his eyes could always see where the corpse was, and the location was in a barren mountain, and it was impossible for people to pass by, so he didn't take this matter to heart.
However, half an hour passed, and the mute never came out of the bushes, and at this moment, the dwarf felt that something was wrong.
