☆, Chapter 111: Preferring Sons to Girls

Many men, in particular, felt a chill in their lower body. The old man had his lower body hacked out and his heart ripped out, leading to his death from excessive bleeding.

The key point is that he died in a very lewd manner, with a smile of enjoyment all over his face. Combined with his chrysanthemum skin, he looked extremely wretched. His chest was covered in flesh, his sternum had been severed, and his heart had been dug out.

The point is, the location where the heart appeared was also very strange. It was not taken away or discarded at random, but thrown into the dog's food bowl in the house, and now it has been almost eaten up.

"Oh my god, this must be the Ouija board asking for my life!"

"It's horrible. How could it be worse than his son's death?"

"No wonder the old lady didn't let us see it at first! If we had seen it, wouldn't we have instantly known it was haunted?"

The villagers were whispering among themselves, and the village chief was extremely confused.

Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing exchanged a silent glance. Yu Jiuyin had seen many people carried off by evil spirits, but this one was truly profound. His conscience was gone, and his lower body had been chopped off. Perhaps this old man had done something truly sinister.

In addition, this is a rural area

Yu Jiuyin said nothing, and told the village chief to take everyone away, and to ask Li Xiu and her daughter to come over, and for the rest to disperse, so as not to delay their investigation.

"Okay, okay, go ahead." The village chief was a well-educated man and quickly sent everyone away.

Rong Qing and Yu Jiuyin also shook their heads at the corpse at the same time, "There is no ghost energy."

Rong Qing pointed at the incision and said, "If it was a ghost, it wouldn't need to break the sternum to directly pull out the heart. Also, with such a strong smell of blood, if it was that Ouija board, after being accustomed to blood, it wouldn't let him lie here so easily and would definitely eat his soul."

"Yes, this crime was committed by someone. But to find out who it was, I'm afraid we have to first interrogate that little girl named Li Xiu."

"Indeed, this girl should know something."

Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing spoke one sentence at a time, concluding without much effort that the crime was committed by a human. Their tacit understanding was so strong that the four police officers couldn't keep up and could only follow Yu Jiuyin and the others' instructions.

Two of them went to call the suspect Li Xiu's mother and daughter, and the other one went to find the forensic doctor who performed the autopsy when Li Xiu's father died.

About five minutes later, Li Xiu and her daughter pushed the door open and walked in. The body had been covered, but the smell of blood was still very strong in the room.

Li Xiu's mother almost vomited as soon as she came in.

Yu Jiuyin asked the police to give her a cup of hot water and waited until she calmed down before starting to question her.

"Tell me about the situation."

"We didn't kill them." Li Xiu's mother was a little timid. After entering the house, she didn't dare to look at Rong Qing and Yu Jiuyin. Li Xiu watched curiously, but the little girl was hesitant and didn't say anything.

Yu Jiuyin understood immediately, fearing that the mother was secretly trying to stop them, so he simply gestured to the police, "Let's try them separately."

"No, no one can take my daughter away." The mother suddenly became anxious and hugged Li Xiu tightly and refused to let go.

Yu Jiuyin didn't force the police to take action. He just looked at the woman in front of him coldly, "I don't like to talk nonsense. I'm asking you a second time. Tell me everything you know. Otherwise, I will take Li Xiu away immediately. You can stay in the village."

"That's not allowed. According to regulations, a guardian must be present when interrogating a minor." A young police officer directly rebuked Yu Jiuyin, feeling that Yu Jiuyin was being aggressive. Li Xiu's mother was obviously a timid and virtuous person. It was normal for her not to dare to speak out. Why threaten her?

But Yu Jiuyin sneered, "She is not worthy of being a guardian. Maybe she will be the next to die."

"The unexpected turn of events shocked several policemen.

Yu Jiuyin then said to Li Xiu's mother, "Are you surprised why I said such a thing?"

He reached out and pulled away the white cloth covering the body. "Look at the way your father-in-law died. Doesn't it look familiar to you? After all, you know what he did, don't you?"

"Ah!" Li Xiu's mother screamed, her face pale, and her hands holding Li Xiu loosened.

The police were also very shocked after seeing this scene. Because they found that Li Xiu's reaction was too calm. Unlike her mother's fear and terror, Li Xiu was almost calm as if the one who died on the ground was not her own grandfather, but a stranger with no relationship. They even saw a hint of happiness and deservedness in Li Xiu's eyes.

Why is this happening? Isn't Li Xiu a very filial girl?

Everyone looked at Li Xiu with a strange look. Yu Jiuyin beckoned the girl over and asked her, "Tell me why you want him to die."

"Because he deserves to die." Li Xiu's tone was full of hatred, and she didn't even want to call him grandpa.

Rong Qing frowned and suddenly asked Li Xiu, "Did he molest you?"

Rongqing's confession stunned everyone in the room, but Li Xiu nodded naturally, "Yes, not only did he molest me, but also the woman standing over there. I even doubted whether I should call him grandpa or dad."

"As for why my grandmother wanted to kill my mother and hated me, there was no other reason, it was simply because she discovered that he and my mother were committing adultery."

"Don't talk nonsense about when I was with your grandfather." Hearing this, Li Xiu's mother finally reacted and wanted to stop Li Xiu. But at this point, how could Li Xiu be controlled by her again?

"You don't find it disgusting, but I do." She looked at her mother with disgust. "Don't you know why you moved to town? It's true that your mother-in-law wants to kill you, but isn't she more afraid that the news of your adultery with your father-in-law will spread? And now, he threatens you that if you don't let him touch you, he will tell everyone about your affair. As a result, you send your own daughter away. He can't do anything anymore. Touching her twice is nothing. Haha, is this what a mother should say?"

"Which mother would push her daughter into the fire?" Li Xiu said, tears streaming down her face.

The four policemen in the room were stunned.

Yu Jiuyin reached into his pocket and pulled out a pack of tissues, handing them to Li Xiu. Li Xiu thanked him, took them, wiped his face vigorously, and then turned to Yu Jiuyin, "I'll tell you whatever you want to ask."

"I want to know the crime for your father's death, and I also want to know what agreement you and the Ouija board had."

"Will you take him away?"

"It seems he is helping you."

"Yes, Master Oui not only helped me, but also helped many people." Li Xiu said in a low voice, "Those masters, they all deserve to die."

She paused and revealed the secret hidden in this village.

Domestic violence.

If a child is disobedient, just give him a beating. A good son is made under the stick. This is clearly a small village where even the village chief is not very educated, but he knows a lot about these things.

But even so, there is still a bad habit in this village that is difficult to change and is deeply rooted in people's minds, that is, favoring boys over girls.

"Isn't it ridiculous?" Li Xiu's black and white eyes were filled with mockery. "My so-called grandmother and mother were both victims of the son-biased system. But when they became adults, they still looked at me with the same son-biased system. They were even extremely disappointed because I was a girl. It's as if they forgot that they themselves are women."

According to Li Xiu, she was the least favored child in her family from the moment she was born. Even though she was sensible and smart, it was difficult for her to get anyone's attention. She would even be beaten by her father for the slightest mistake.

"That man is a face-conscious person, so every time he beats me after drinking, he would be careful not to show any scars where they can be seen. But it doesn't mean that I won't feel pain just because others can't see it. But my mother has never helped me. She looked at me coldly and even mocked me, saying that my father would like her more if I were a boy. Her mind is full of the idea that a mother's status depends on her son. Disgusting." Li Xiu took a deep breath and shuddered as if she thought of some terrible scene.

"But even so, they wouldn't let me go. If the principal hadn't come to my home for a visit, specifically mentioned my schooling, and registered my name on the spot, that man would have wanted to sell me to a family with an idiot son as a child bride."

"They, they even stripped me naked and locked me up with that idiot for an entire night."

"You beast, isn't this your own daughter?" The young policeman couldn't stand it any longer and looked at Li Xiu's mother in shock, wanting to slap her.

But Li Xiu's experience was far more than that. She had suffered even more humiliation. Who could have imagined that someone would press his five or six-year-old daughter on the bed and let another strange man check if she was virgin enough?

Moreover, because Li Xiu resisted, her father dragged her naked into the yard and beat her severely.

“我学校里的那些闲话，也就是这些。以后要嫁给傻子，光屁股在院子里挨揍。老师还挺担心我的，其实没什么必要。发生都发生了。被那么多人看过我都活下来了，现在被讲究几句又能怎么样”

Li Xiu was very calm, but Yu Jiuyin suddenly reached out and hugged her.

"You..." Li Xiu subconsciously wanted to avoid him. But the warmth in Yu Jiuyin's arms made her reluctant to leave.

"Stop talking and take a break." Yu Jiuyin's voice rang in his ears, gentle and low, which naturally had a soothing effect.

Li Xiu suddenly relaxed and hugged Yu Jiuyin and started crying.

Rong Qing knew he couldn't ask any more questions after seeing this, so he asked someone to take the woman and the corpse back to the police station, while he and Yu Jiuyin stayed behind.

"Boss, are you two okay staying here?" the old policeman couldn't help but ask. These impoverished and desolate places are home to many unruly people. Rongqing and Yu Jiuyin were clearly from the city, especially Rongqing. He had definitely never seen how angry these people could get, and he was worried they'd suffer if they stayed.

"It's okay, let's go back and do the autopsy first." Rong Qing directly refused and asked them to take the person away.

After coaxing Li Xiu to sleep, Yu Jiuyin also walked out of the room, a hint of disgust and nausea in her eyes.

Rong Qing was a little bit dissatisfied with the "Empathy Magic", but he understood that Yu Jiuyin couldn't bear to let the child open the scar again.

However, Yu Jiuyin did not want to speak, but simply lowered his head, touched Rongqing's forehead, and empathized with her again. Yu Jiuyin gave Rongqing exactly what he saw from Li Xiu's memory.

After reading it, Rongqing was also shocked.

How could there be such a weird Ouija board?
