Everyone investigated many neighbors in the vicinity together, and the results were roughly similar, Liu Huiqing did not have an ambiguous relationship with others, if there was, it must be very secretive, at least it has not spread.

I didn't see Liu Huiqing go out yesterday, and besides, a neighbor passed by, and the lights in her house were always on.

Everyone came in the morning, so after such a toss, until it was dark, the village people found everyone, Fan Xichun prepared dinner for everyone in the compound, and asked everyone to go back to eat.

Zhong Yong told Zhou Cunxiao that the people in the village were very enthusiastic, especially handling cases for them, catching water ghosts, and eating a meal was nothing.

Zhou Cunxiao saw that it was also evening, and the investigation couldn't find anything, besides, the test results hadn't come out yet, so he would go back to eat and discuss it in the evening.

Da Leizi was hungry for a long time, so he didn't dare to say it.

The big office that came in the morning, a small conference room in the village, was vacant at this time, a large table was set up in the middle, and a few dishes had already been served.

Chicken stewed mushrooms, scrambled eggs with wild vegetables, fungus, and vegetables are all available, and the aroma is tangy.

Fan Xichun didn't know where to get two bottles of Yanghe Daqu, at that time, this wine was quite good, and it was one of the top ten famous wines in the country.

Even now, I can't drink such good wine, except for a few very famous wines, other wines are blended, but at that time it was not blended, and the upper legs did not go up after drinking.

During the meal, Fan Xichun also asked about the investigation, and also introduced the matter of the water ghost, which he was also very troubled about.

The adults in the village are easy to say, but the children are disobedient, close to the village, or a gentle slope, and many children go to play.

Even adults, it is inevitable to go at night, because if you want to catch shrimp and sell it for money, you can only get it at night, in case something happens again, he is not in charge of it, and he feels sorry for the villagers.

Of course, in Fan Xichun's heart, he didn't think that this was a case, but he didn't say it so clearly.

Yang Xiaoyue heard it, what Fan Xichun meant was that no matter what it was, he was afraid of the people at the yamen, everyone was here to investigate for a few days, not to mention whether it was a case or not, and to suppress the arrogance of the water ghost, maybe he would not dare to come out in the future.

It made everyone very embarrassed, but no one believed that there was really any water ghost, and even the thing You Guiying said, everyone agreed that it was committed by outsiders.

Da Leizi also asked how to catch shrimp, and I didn't see any fish and shrimp in the morning.

Fan Xichun knew some and told everyone that there are a lot of fish and shrimp in the sand pit, but it is not easy to get it, and most people can't get much.

Get out of the cage at night, go and pull the cage up in the morning, it's full of fresh shrimp, you can set up a stall in the city, and if you can talk, you can sell it directly to the restaurant.

Although the price was cheap in those years, the money was indeed valuable, and it was a lot of income, and many people used to do this, but it was recently haunted, which made people panic, and everyone did not dare to go.

Everyone was drinking wine and chatting about the affairs of the village, when a young man's voice shouted outside: "Uncle Fan, it's not good, someone has seen the water ghost, and no one has left, go and have a look!" ”

"Huh?"

Fan Xichun was taken aback, and quickly stood up and looked at Zhong Yong and Zhou Cunxiao.

Zhong Yong and Zhou Cunxiao also stood up and waved their hands: "Everyone go quickly!" ”

Da Leizi didn't drink anymore, stood up and ran out, got into the car commander, although it was not far to the lake, it was also fast!

Yang Xiaoyue and Ning Tong also hurriedly got into the car and quickly rushed to the lake.

When the car stopped near the lake, I saw a few people running towards it.

Yang Xiaoyue and Ning Tong didn't care about a few people, and hurriedly looked at the lake.

The surface of the lake is as calm as a mirror, under the moonlight, sparkling, the scenery is very beautiful, where is the water ghost?

"You're coming so fast, you're still a step too late!"

The men ran over: "Just ······ We have seen it with our own eyes, we have seen it, it is not me who is talking nonsense, you ask them! ”

Yang Xiaoyue and Ning Tong turned their heads and saw that they were four young people under thirty, three men and one woman, all with panicked faces, their trouser legs were all pulled, and two of them were carrying a long cage in their hands, which seemed to be made of bamboo, and they couldn't see what was in it.

"What do you see?" Da Leizi got out of the car and asked.

"We came from over there, and we really saw it with our own eyes, and we saw it before we got there!"

A young man pointed to the right, and then said, "I saw a woman, a woman in black clothes and long hair, just walking into the lake, step by step, and when we ran over, it was gone!" ”

"We were all almost there, and I just remembered that Sister You said that she had seen a water ghost and frightened me!"

The woman panted and said, "I wanted to stop them, but the water ghost disappeared, so we let the pillar go back to find someone, that is the water ghost, it seems to have come ashore!" ”

At this time, Zhong Yong, Zhou Cunxiao, Gu Zhongchen, Li Jialin, Lu Daotong and others also ran over, followed by the Suori and Fan Xichun, and immediately asked.

A few young people gave everyone a detailed explanation.

Fan Xichun knew that the young people in the village were not in a good family situation, although the lake was haunted, they organized a few people, relying on their courage to get some shrimp to sell for money.

It's not easy to get here, there are few fish and shrimp on the gentle slope, so I want to go to the woods over there.

When they walked from this side to that side, they were not halfway through when they vaguely felt something in the lake beside them, and quickly turned to look.

I saw the scene just narrated, a woman walked from the edge of the lake and disappeared into the lake.

Everyone listened and looked at each other.

If You Guiying saw it, after all, she was alone, and there was a possibility that she was wrong, or it could be that people from other villages and outsiders killed themselves, but there were several people today!

Besides, how can there be so many outsiders killing themselves, and the picture is still so weird?

"Where exactly?"

Yang Xiaoyue looked at a few young people and asked, "When you came over, did you see footprints when you passed by?" ”

"yes, take us there!"

Da Leizi also remembered: "If it is from the village, there must be footprints!" ”

"Come with us!"

The young man immediately said, "I remember the approximate location, it seems to be ······ There were footprints, I was so panicked that I ran over and looked inside, but I didn't pay attention! ”

Everyone hurriedly followed the young man forward, about a few tens of meters away, and sure enough, they saw a line of footprints!

The footprints are not big, and the stride length is not too wide, not the footprints of the feet, but the shoes are on, and the toes are against the lake, and the place where they start is the hard ground by the lake, and there are some water stains.
