"Why would I kill you if I have nothing to do?"
After Qin Yuesheng finished speaking, he walked out of the house.
Since there is no so-called Three Earth Goddesses, and Wei the witch has nothing to do with the missing child, there is no point in continuing the investigation here.
Watching Qin Yuesheng leave, the witch Wei immediately climbed up from the table and covered her chest with her hands in fear: "Oh my god, I thought it was a big fat fish, so I deliberately dressed less to tempt him, but who would have thought that it was an evil star."
…
Many families in Jixiang Town had lost their children, so it was quite easy for Qin Yuesheng to find them. He just stopped a few passers-by on the street, spent some money to ask them, and then Qin Yuesheng came to the home of a farmer named Zhang Nankang.
According to passers-by, Zhang Nankang lost his child two days ago.
Walking into the unlocked room, Qin Yuesheng saw two women sitting inside and chanting Buddhist scriptures, probably asking for blessings or something.
Bang bang bang!
Qin Yuesheng knocked on the door and asked, "Is Zhang Nankang here?"
The two women immediately turned their heads and cried, "Who are you?"
"I'm a special officer from Qingyang City, specially sent here to investigate the case of a missing child." Qin Yuesheng said, "Could you please tell me how your child went missing?"
When they heard that Qin Yuesheng was actually a government official, the two women immediately ran over and knelt down in front of Qin Yuesheng as if they had found a life-saving straw.
"Master, please help me save my child and help me find him."
"Please help my sister-in-law, sir. I kowtow to you."
Qin Yuesheng was not really used to this posture. Even in the Qin Mansion, the servants did not often kowtow to him.
So he quickly said, "Of course I will take care of this. You two should get up first and tell me about the situation. Stop knocking on my door, so as not to waste time."
The two women immediately stood up, invited Qin Yuesheng to sit down at the dinner table, and described to him what happened that night.
It turned out that the children in Jixiang Town had been missing for five or six days. In total, more than thirty children had been missing during these days.
Zhang Nankang and his wife have only one six-year-old child at home, so they are naturally worried day and night that their child might encounter an accident.
Zhang Nankang followed the example of others and went to the blacksmith shop to buy six iron handcuffs. At night, he would carry the child to the middle of the bed, and the couple would handcuff their hands and legs together with the child's hands and feet, and then they would snuggle up to sleep.
Such a safe measure was still no match for the strange thing that happened. When Zhang Nankang and his wife woke up early the next morning, they found that the center of the bed was empty. The handcuffs on the child had been secretly opened by someone, and the child was missing.
"Is the action so silent?" Qin Yuesheng thought to himself.
From what the woman said, we can understand that this mysterious being that catches children must have extremely superb flexibility, so that it can silently uncuff the child when an adult couple is holding their child and then take the child away.
Sneaky? Evil? Or perhaps a master of extraordinary martial arts?
I have to say, all three are possible.
Looking at the woman who began to cry again, Qin Yuesheng waved his hand and said, "I will continue to investigate this matter. Don't worry. If I have any news, I will come to inform you. I will take my leave now."
Since the problem occurred in Jixiang Town, it is particularly important to take a walk around the place first and understand the terrain clearly. By the way, you can also see if you can find any clues.
If the guys who stole the children were still hiding in Jixiang Town, Qin Yuesheng didn't believe that he couldn't find them.
After leaving the house, Qin Yuesheng took out the fox's heart and the evil-repelling toad and began to wander around Jixiang Town.
From the fox spirit's perspective, there was nothing unusual in Jixiang Town, not even a hint of hostility, and the glazed plate on the back of the evil-repelling toad also showed that everything was normal, which made Qin Yuesheng feel puzzled.
Could it be the ghost clan?
Those ghosts who had previously hidden in Qingyang City and secretly plotted to seal it also had some methods to conceal their hostility.
After wandering around, Qin Yuesheng came to the edge of the town and suddenly smelled a nauseating stench in the air.
Qin Yuesheng looked towards the place where the smell was the strongest, and found it was an older inn.
