Before, I just glanced at it casually and didn't look closely, but now after Li Hai's reminder, I stepped forward to take a closer look, and my head exploded in an instant.

The murderer in the picture turned out to be the driver just now!

Although the age difference between the two is twenty or thirty years, they are almost exactly the same in terms of facial features and face shape.

Seeing this, I understood why Li Hai was so shocked, it turned out that the driver who sent us here just now was the initiator of the murder at that time, that is, the murderer who was under the age of fourteen!

Li Hai saw that my face was solemn, and he saw that I had found the clue, so he said in a deep voice: "The driver just now told a story at all, but something he had personally experienced, he just changed his identity to the victim, I really didn't expect us to talk to the murderer all the way." ”

Judging from Li Hai's pale face, he still has some lingering palpitations now, after all, this is not an ordinary criminal, there must be a psychological problem with being able to kill people and cut off the victim's head when he is a teenager.

But so many years have passed, maybe he has changed his ways, thinking of this, I looked at Li Hai and said with relief: "Don't think about it so much, we didn't come this time to investigate the homicide case of the year, and besides, this matter has nothing to do with us, it's better to hurry up and find Qin Wenhua." ”

"What about the human head, didn't the report also say that the human head was not found in the end, could it be that this human head ran away with long legs?" Li Hai asked as he followed behind me.

Hearing this, I smiled bitterly, looked back at Li Hai and said: "How can a human head have long legs, in my opinion, it is estimated that the wild cats and wild dogs nearby smelled the smell of blood in the ground, and after digging it out, they took the human head away and ate it." ”

According to news reports, the driver hid the child's body about a meter underground, and although the dog's nose was sensitive enough to smell the blood underground, he certainly couldn't have dug out such a deep pit.

Besides, even if the pit is dug and the head is taken away, then the next day the nearby residents will definitely have an abnormality, and they will not wait until they find out that the person is missing before calling the police.

So this thing is definitely not the work of animals, and the reason why I say this is nothing more than to make Li Hai feel relieved.

Li Hai is usually very shrewd, and he is probably scared enough by this incident that he really believes it.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I said that there are no ghosts and gods in this world, damn, it made Lao Tzu break out in a cold sweat, but seriously, the next time we see that driver, we have to stay away, this is the master who has killed people, we can't afford to provoke it." ”

Li Hai's face change speed is a fight with a woman, and he said that he would teach him a lesson next time he saw the driver, but now he said that he couldn't be provoked, this is really a typical bullying of the soft and afraid of the hard, I ignored him, smiled bitterly and continued to walk forward.

We searched all the way along the house number, and soon we came to the courtyard number 350.

Although there are still a few families in front, they have almost reached the end of the alley, and it seems that Qin Wenhua's home should live in the innermost part of the alley.

“363、364、36……”

Just as I was checking the house number along the road, I was suddenly stunned, this alley turned out to be only 354 households, and there was no courtyard No. 365 at all!

Courtyard No. 364 is further ahead of a wall, behind which is the road, and there is no other courtyard at all.

This is a bit strange, the note left by Qin Wenhua clearly says No. 365, how can there be no such courtyard now, could it be that I was tricked by him?

Seeing that I was stunned, Li Hai patted me on the shoulder, looked at me and asked, "What are you doing stupidly, didn't you come here to find that person surnamed Qin, why didn't you enter the hospital?" ”

I didn't respond, and directly handed the note with the address to Li Hai, Li Hai took the note and glanced at it, then looked at the house numbers on both sides of the alley, looked at him for a moment, and said in surprise: "No. 365?" There are only 364 courtyards in this hat brim alley, where did No. 365 come from, did you let people deceive you? ”

While speaking, Li Hai took out his mobile phone from his pocket to check how many hat-brim alleys there are in the local area, but after querying three or four software in a row, it still shows that there is only one hat-brim alley, which is where we are now.

"The place must be right, there is only this hat brim alley in the local area, could it be that the person surnamed Qin wrote the wrong house number, do you have his contact information, hurry up and call him and ask again." Li Hai proposed.

Hearing this, I shook my head helplessly, I have only met Qin Wenhua twice, and there is no contact information about him at all.

It's five o'clock in the afternoon, and there are only seven hours left before the deadline.

I thought that if I found Qin Wenhua, I might be able to save my life, but I didn't expect to encounter this tricky thing now, if I can't find Qin Wenhua before twelve o'clock, then wouldn't my life be completely over?

Just when I was anxious, I suddenly heard a creaking sound in my ears, and I followed the sound to see an old lady carrying a vegetable basket walking out of the courtyard next to me.

The old lady was dressed in a gray gown, and was about seventy or eighty years old, and although she had a rickety figure and no flesh on her face, she looked very kind from her countenance.

According to the driver, the old lady should be very clear about the situation in the hat brim alley, and maybe she can know where the courtyard No. 365 is.

Thinking of this, I walked quickly in front of the old lady, perhaps not noticing the two of us before, and was visibly startled when the old lady saw me.

After a while, she came back to her senses, and said in a slightly unhappy tone: "Baby, I said how elusive you are, what if you scare my old lady out of the way?" ”

Seeing that the old lady was taken aback by me, I quickly apologized to her, and then took the opportunity to ask her if she knew where Courtyard No. 365 was.

Hearing the question, the old lady's expression was obviously stunned, she glanced at the courtyards on both sides of the alley, and said in surprise: "My old lady has lived in this alley for half her life, and she has never heard of No. 365, when this alley was built, there were only 364 households, where did No. 365 come from, are you looking for the wrong place?" ”

The old lady's words made my heart fall to the bottom instantly, since she has lived here since the beginning of the construction of the alley, she must know this alley very well.

Now she said that there would definitely be no mistake if there was no courtyard, but in that case, where is this courtyard, could it be that Qin Wenhua is really lying to me?

I was unwilling, so I continued to ask: "Grandma, is there really no courtyard No. 365 in the hat brim alley, if you think about it carefully, could it be a mistake?" ”

The old lady glanced at me when she heard this, and said with a bulging cheek: "I said no, no, I have lived for half my life, can I not know better than you, since the two of you have walked to the end of the alley, it means that you have already seen the house number in front, facts speak louder than words, is it possible that your eyes are not as good as my old wife?" ”

Seeing that the old lady's temper was a little strange, Li Hai was worried that she would be angry, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Grandma, my brother is not very smart, don't be like him, since there is no courtyard, let's leave now." ”

After that, Li Hai walked in front of me and was ready to drag me towards the outside of the alley, although he was unwilling, but in the face of reality, I could only give in.

Then I followed Li Hai towards the distance, and after walking a few steps, suddenly an old lady's voice came from behind me: "Baby, you two wait, I think of something, aren't you looking for No. 365, I seem to know where it is!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Hai and I were stunned, and immediately turned to look at the old lady.

"Grandma, where is the No. 365 courtyard?" I looked at the old lady and asked eagerly.

"Don't worry, you two come with me, I'll show you."

As soon as the old lady finished speaking, she walked towards the wall at the end of the alley, and when she saw her leave, Li Hai and I immediately followed, and soon came to the wall.

Looking at the bare wall, Li Hai looked puzzled: "Grandma, this is just a wall, behind the wall is a road, where did you come from, you won't be playing with us, right?" ”

The old lady glanced back at Li Hai, raised her hand and slapped him on the head, and reprimanded: "Old woman, I have lived for seventy or eighty years, and I have never deceived anyone, you look down, this may be the No. 365 courtyard you are looking for." ”

As she spoke, the old lady pointed her hand towards the ground, and I looked in the direction of his finger, which suddenly made me cry and laugh, the place where the old lady's finger turned out to be a mouse hole!

Just now, this old lady swore that she would not lie to us if she lived to be seventy or eighty years old, but now she turned her head and pointed us to a mouse hole.

"Grandma, you still don't admit that you are playing us, isn't this just a rat hole, and there can be people hidden here?" Li Hai looked at the old lady with a confused expression and asked.

The old lady smiled at Li Hai, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth: "Baby, this is just that you don't understand, this mouse hole can not only hide people but also hide immortals, the mouse is one of the five immortals, what you are looking for may be the gray family immortal!" ”

Li Hai didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but now it's good, the old lady directly sorted out the immortals, which made Li Haiqi's face red.

However, because the other party was an old lady, Li Hai was not easy to scold, so he had to look at the old lady and say: "Grandma, if you have something, go first, you don't need to be involved in this matter, thank you for my family." ”

The old lady was old, and she didn't hear Li Hai scolding, and when she left, she smiled at Li Hai and nodded, saying that he was educated and qualified.

Seeing the old lady leaving with the vegetable basket, Li Hai turned around, and when he saw me squatting in front of the mouse hole, he sighed twice and said, "Okay, don't pretend, the old lady is already gone, since we can't find it, let's leave, it's getting dark." ”

I didn't get up in the face of Li Hai's urging, but I didn't think it was a fantasy.

Qin Wenhua is now difficult to distinguish between people and ghosts, maybe it is really a rat who has become a spirit, otherwise how would he leave the word 365 on the note.

So I think it's necessary for me to observe this rat hole, maybe Qin Wenhua is hiding in it at the moment!
