Chapter 38 The corpse reappears
An hour later, the night grew darker and the snow became even colder.
Chu Runrun's face turned red from the cold, and Ning Xuan quickly put Chu Runrun's hand in his arms to hold it.
"Are you still cold?" Ning Xuan asked.
Chu Ruanruan smiled and shook her head: "It's not cold anymore!"
Han Liming on the side couldn't help but sigh when he saw Ning Xuan like this. It was true that children are no longer under the control of others when they grow up. Ning Xuan, the cold little guy, has also met his nemesis!
"Ha~" Han Liming exhaled hot air and rubbed his hands: "This Longyang Town is really cold!"
Zhuo Chi glanced at Han Liming, then handed him the warm baby in his hand: "Here!"
Han Liming looked at the heat pack with astonishment in his eyes: "Forensic Doctor Zhuo, you actually carry a heat pack with you?"
"I knew it would be cold here before I came, so I brought some!" said Zhuo Chi.
"No wonder everyone in the team says you are a good man who is essential for the family, so thoughtful!" Han Liming took the hot pack and said with a smile.
As he was speaking, Wei Zhiyin floated out of the fish pond, and with her was a wisp of Xiao He's soul.
"Sister Zhiyin!" Chu Runrun immediately shouted.
"His soul is very weak. I gave him some Yin energy. Let him return to his body as soon as possible!" Wei Zhiyin said.
"Okay! Thank you, Sister Zhiyin!"
Wei Zhiyin returned the jade bone flute, and Chu Runrun quickly collected Xiao He's soul into the talisman paper.
"Uncle Zhuo, uncle, let's go back quickly!"
"Okay, okay! Let's go!" Han Liming stomped his frozen feet and hurried back.
Han Lixue was worried and waited until midnight. Everyone else was asleep, but Han Lixue didn't dare tell them.
It wasn't until the doorbell rang and everyone returned safely that Han Lixue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come and have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up!" Han Lixue said hurriedly.
"Mom, I'll drink it later. It's more important to send Uncle Xiao He's soul back first!"
Chu Runrun hurried upstairs and took out the two souls from the talisman paper and put them into Xiao He's body.
The soul and body gradually merged, and the deathly look on Xiao He's face gradually dissipated.
Not long after, Xiao He coughed lightly and woke up slowly.
"Xiao He, Xiao He!" Han Liming called out twice.
He Fei was confused for a while before he finally came to his senses: "Captain Han, Forensic Doctor Zhuo, where am I?"
"This is my sister's home. You are lucky enough. If you hadn't met my niece, you would have died today!" Han Liming said with a smile.
He Fei frowned. He just remembered that he fell into the river somehow, and then he remembered nothing!
"Captain Han, what happened after I fell into the river? Why don't I remember anything?" He Fei asked.
Han Liming and Zhuo Chi looked at each other and tacitly agreed not to tell the truth.
"Nothing, you've been unconscious since we rescued you!"
"Oh!" He Fei nodded.
"Brother, it's getting late. You and Forensic Doctor Zhuo should go and rest. I'll take care of Xiao He!" Han Lixue said.
"OK!"
Han Liming stretched and went to the next room, and Zhuo Chi followed him.
After tossing and turning for most of the night, Ning Xuan and Chu Runrun were exhausted and fell asleep as soon as they returned to the warm bed.
It was a little after one in the morning and Zhuo Chi was sleeping when there was a knock on the door of his room.
Zhuo Chi was a light sleeper. When he heard the sound, he got up and went to open the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Han Liming standing at the door. Through the dim corridor light, he could still see the anxiety on Han Liming's face.
"Captain Han, what are you doing..." Zhuo Chi looked at Han Liming in confusion.
Han Liming coughed lightly and said weakly: "Um...can I sleep with you?"
"What?" Zhuo Chi was stunned.
Han Liming was at his wit's end. As soon as he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with the hideous faces of ghosts. He was so scared that he couldn't sleep.
Zhuo Chi looked at Han Liming, a tall man of over 1.8 meters, who was unable to sleep because of being scared by a ghost, and felt helpless and amused.
"Captain Han, you see, you're not afraid of dead people, so why would you be afraid of ghosts?" Zhuo Chi opened the door to let Han Liming in.
Han Liming hurried in and closed the door.
"Forensic Doctor Zhuo, I'd like to know this question too. Just like some people are afraid of the dark, some are afraid of dogs, and some are afraid of cockroaches, I'm afraid of ghosts, right?"
Han Liming said this and got into bed. Zhuo Chi felt a little disgusted. He was really not used to sleeping in the same bed with others.
"Forensic Doctor Zhuo, why are you standing there? Go to sleep!" Han Liming moved inside to make some room for Zhuo Chi.
Zhuo Chi sighed. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. He better just bear with it!
Zhuo Chi lay down on the bed and closed his eyes, but suddenly an unusually familiar feeling flashed through his mind, as if he had had such an experience before.
But then he thought, he and Han Liming had only known each other for less than half a month, how could it be possible?
Zhuo Chi put everything out of his mind and fell asleep.
The next day, Han Liming called in a large number of police officers to break the ice on the fish pond and drain all the water underneath, revealing the full picture of the fish pond.
Looking at the nearly one hundred corpses buried in the mud, everyone was extremely shocked.
After everyone fished all the bodies ashore, Zhuo Chi put them together one by one. There were a total of ninety-eight bodies. Some had died just a few months ago and had not yet completely decayed, while some had been dead for several years and had turned into bones. They were all underage children.
Han Liming's eyes turned red as he looked at the corpses, and he clenched his fists tightly.
"Captain Han, there are a total of ninety-eight bodies, which is exactly the same number of children abducted by the criminal group three years ago. Moreover, those who were killed recently had their organs dug out!" Zhuo Chi said.
Han Liming punched the tree next to him and said, "Damn Tian You, I will bring him to justice sooner or later!"
"Tian Yuan, whose body was dismembered, is Tian You's younger brother and the main person in charge of foreign trade. Now that Tian Yuan has been killed, there must be a traitor in their group. Tian You can't sit still!" He Fei said.
"Go and check why Tian Yuan buried these bodies here!" Han Liming said gritting his teeth.
"The identity information of Tian Yuan and Tian You is already being checked, but because there is too little information, screening is very difficult, so it takes time!" He Fei said helplessly.
Han Liming lowered his eyes and sighed heavily.
Zhuo Chi handed him a bottle of water and said, "Calm down. This criminal group has been rampant for so long. It will take time to eradicate it completely!"
"Thank you!" Han Liming took a sip of water and said.
"Uncle!" Chu Runrun and Ning Xuan waved outside the cordon.
Han Liming quickly composed himself and walked over: "Xiao Xuan, Ruan Ruan, why are you here?"
"Uncle, Mom said you didn't have breakfast, so she asked us to bring some food over!" Chu Runrun said.
Chu Runrun handed the wrapped rice ball to Han Liming.
Han Liming finally smiled: "Thank you, Ruanruan!"
"Uncle, I can help you ask them what happened that you want to know!" Chu Ruanruan said after taking a look at the corpse over there.
Han Liming was stunned, and when he thought about what happened last night, it suddenly made some sense.
"Ruanruan, can you ask now?" Han Liming asked.
"Not now! They can't come out during the day. I can call them out when it gets dark!" said Chu Ruanruan.
"Okay! Let's talk about it tonight!"
