☆, Chapter 115: Maybe a Birdman
Even coastal villages can be different. But the fishing village Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing visited was different. The one the boss and his friends visited was clearly quite wealthy. It even offered free shipping.
"It's okay here, and the security seems pretty good." Zhang Yao got out of the car and took a look around.
Perhaps due to planning, the courtyards of every household in the village have been given a uniform color. Even though the shapes of the buildings vary, at first glance, they still appear quite neat, not much different from a bustling metropolis, and even have a unique pastoral charm.
"It's quite good." The eldest brother followed him down. "And the feng shui is also very good."
"Of course you can see so much." Zhang Yao was very shocked.
"No, I just learned a little from my brother. And Ziyang has been teaching me these past couple of days. I only know the basics. I don't think my talent lies here."
"It's good to know a little bit." Rong Zhuo came out of the car and lay on the boss. "You have only been learning for a few days."
As a result, the next second, he was separated by the second and third brothers.
Rong Zhuo suddenly felt bitter.
Looking at Master Yu Jiuyin, who was still sleeping in the car with a bun in his arms, he suddenly felt even more troubled. Is this reliable? Isn't it said that the elderly sleep a lot? How come this old man can sleep so well and even sleep the whole way without waking up?
Fortunately, Master Yu Jiuyin finally managed to open his eyes before arriving at the police station.
"I'll beat that evil disciple to death when he gets home." Still remembering how Yu Jiuyin had forced him into the car, the old man's first words upon regaining consciousness were to seek revenge against Yu Jiuyin. However, after taking a bite of the bun and discovering it was stuffed with his favorite celery, he changed his mind.
Humph, Suan Yu Jiuyin is filial.
The old man said that the wind is rain. The boss and Rong Zhuo looked at each other and silently swallowed back the words that only celery filling was left in the buns. Thinking in his heart, this is very noisy. If the old man really knew the truth, I am afraid he would be in heaven.
But Yi Tian, who was watching from the sidelines, had another doubt in his mind. Yu Jiuyin was very good at fortune-telling, and his accuracy was frightening. But the old man didn't seem to be able to tell fortunes.
As expected, after Yi Tian asked his doubts, Master Yu Jiuyin directly explained them to him.
"Metaphysics is not that easy. If everyone were like Xiao Jiuer, how could the Metaphysics Association be so stagnant now? Many Heavenly Masters may not even fully master a single technique in their entire lives, let alone master everything like Xiao Jiuer. As for Xiao Yuqi," the old man said, pointing at the eldest brother, "he's already quite talented. He can learn Feng Shui and Ghost Dao formations at the same time."
"That's true." Yi Tian nodded seriously after hearing this. It was indeed as Master Yu Jiuyin had said. Metaphysics seemed easy to get started with, but in reality, it was very difficult to delve into it.
They chatted all the way until they finally arrived at the village police station. After hearing about their purpose, an experienced police officer immediately led the group to the archives room without wasting a minute.
"Finally, you're here! We've already prepared the relevant files. Please take a look. This case has been pending for years. If it can't be solved, we'll be very uneasy."
"Don't worry, let's first understand the specific situation. By the way, have all the parties involved in the case been found? We may need to inquire with them about the relevant circumstances."
"It's all there, it's just the attitude," the police officer sighed heavily, "Don't blame me, although our place is small, it's not without culture. In response to the family planning policy, every family has only one child. A few decades ago, there was still a saying that boys were favored over girls, but in recent years, there has been no such thing. After all, with only this one baby, it doesn't make any difference whether it's a boy or a girl. What's more, a girl is more considerate, isn't she?"
"Yeah, that's what happened." Of the three, only Zhang Yao had a younger sister, and the age difference was quite significant. They had all seen the eldest, a tiny one, whose sweet voice made them cry "brother" so sweetly that they melted their hearts, wishing they could give the whole world to her. After hearing the police officer's words, they all felt a deep connection, especially Master Yu Jiuyin.
How could Yu Jiuyin be so cute when she wore a skirt when she was little? Every day after coming back from kindergarten, she would cling to him sweetly for hugs, call him Master, and not complain about his bad cooking. She is not as hard to please as she is now.
Time is like a butcher's knife. The old man thought so, and finally felt a little relieved.
"So many people who lost their daughters are still unable to recover from their emotions." The police officer also gave a general account of the situation.
Unlike the ordinary kidnapping that Zhang Yao and the others had imagined at the beginning, the children lost in this village all got lost on their own.
"You mean these children walked out of their homes on their own?"
"Yes. And all the missing ones were girls. But the strange thing is, after the last family was wiped out, no more children were lost in the village. Everyone said that this family helped the villagers ward off disaster, so they all worshipped their spirit tablets. But in fact, after watching the surveillance, we think this family was the biggest victim."
"How to say"
"It was an unprovoked disaster. The last family to lose their daughter was wealthy. Many families had lost children by then, so they kept a close eye on their daughters. They had surveillance cameras installed throughout the house. But that's how the legend of the singing blood-stained female ghost came about. And there's no way that lost child will ever be found."
"Because my family was wiped out, I have no relatives left."
"No, it's because no one dares to look for it because of the blood-stained female ghost."
The "blood-robed" boss was sensitive to his choice of words. Generally speaking, red-robed ghosts are relatively common. What does this "blood-robed" mean?
"Well, you'll know when you watch it." The policeman found an old videotape and played it for the boss and the others.
This is the video of the little girl when she went missing.
It was very dark, with no other light except the moonlight. The time was marked in the corner of the video: 3:00 AM.
Everyone should have been sleeping, but inexplicably, the window in the house suddenly opened, and a little girl staggered out.
She looks only three or four years old, and the pajamas she wears are very comfortable and soft. It's obvious that she is well taken care of at home.
But now, this little girl didn't look well taken care of at all. Instead, she was as cruel as a murderous demon.
She walked step by step to the firewood in the yard, picked up the hatchet that was even bigger than her own, and walked towards the house with difficulty. This time, she entered through the window. The hatchet hit the window, making a tinkling sound, but the house remained very quiet, as if nothing had changed.
Silence returned to the yard. For a full ten minutes, nothing happened. But the bosses watching the surveillance footage all had a bad feeling in their hearts.
"That little girl killed her parents." As expected, the eldest brother was sensitive enough to notice the liquid flowing out from the crack of the door in the video. He was shocked.
"Not only her parents," the police officer said, also a little scared, "but also her grandfather, grandmother, aunt, and two brothers."
"Extermination of the whole family"
"Yes. Besides, if it were someone else's family, we might suspect they were mistreating or abusing their daughter in private. But that's definitely not the case with this family. The two boys in their family are so protective of their little sister. If anyone dares to make her cry when they take her out to play, they'll chase her from one end of the village to the other and beat her up. The old man in this family hasn't fished for years. He goes there every day just because his little granddaughter likes it, just to get her something delicious."
"Indeed, the girl's clothes are hand-sewn. And did you see the clothes drying rack in the yard? There are several pieces of washed cloth on it, which must be used to make clothes for the girl. If this family favors boys over girls, a grandmother or mother would not make clothes like this for a little girl."
"Yes, and how could a little girl who is only three years old kill the whole family when she can't even lift a hatchet?"
The police quickly showed the contents of the on-site trace inspection report and the autopsy report to the boss and others.
When I opened it, I was shocked to see that it looked more like pieces of meat than a corpse. Except for the head which was still intact, the whole body had been chopped into pieces by a hatchet.
There are seven people in the family. Even an adult man would find it difficult to complete such a large project. How did a little girl who was over three years old do it?
"There's something even more bizarre happening later in this video, and we didn't dare release it at the time."
"Let's take a look first." The eldest brother opened the video and sped it up a bit, directly to the moment when the little girl came out of the house.
All I can say is that based on the scenes in the video, the murderer must be the little girl herself because only in this way can we explain where all the blood on her body came from.
But then the next second, the strange scene that the police officer described appeared directly.
The little girl in the video seemed to suddenly feel that she was being filmed. She suddenly raised her head and faced the direction of the video. Under the moonlight, her originally cute and tender face suddenly became extremely weird.
A dense mass of fine feathers sprouted from her forehead, a dazzling array of colors, yet not dazzling at all, rather nauseatingly complex. Even more bizarre was her mouth. Her upper and lower lips were twisted together in a strange position. Combined with her dull eyes, she looked more like a parrot than a human.
The eldest brother suddenly thought of the monster he had seen through the ghost doll at Yu Hong's house. The fox demon was also like this, with a human body but an evil fox face.
"What the hell is this monster?" The second child jumped up and down in fear, feeling unwell all over.
However, the third brother and Xu Wang looked at each other and felt that the girl's change was really weird.
However, Yu Jiuyin's master stared at it for a long time as if he was thinking about something.
"Grandpa, have you figured out anything?" Zhang Yao was extremely expectant.
"I guess so," Master Yu Jiuyin said slowly, "This might be a birdman."
