Chapter 202: What a Bad Luck
The next morning, several people gathered together. Jiang Hao and Shi Luo each rode a bike. Huhu sat on the 28-inch bicycle and swung his legs.
Liang Song saw everyone gathered and raised his arms, shouting, "Let's go."
Shi Luo felt the gazes of the people around him and suddenly wanted to leave the team. Yes, even though Jiang Hao and his son were in the team, Shi Luo still wanted to leave.
Shi Luo was just thinking about it. After riding for about an hour, they finally reached Xishan.
After locking up their bikes, Shi Luo led Huhu towards the reservoir, taking in the surroundings. "This isn't bad. I've never been here before. I remember when I was a kid, my grandpa told me there were tigers in the West Mountain and wouldn't let me play here."
Uncle Chu: "It's all the same. I used this excuse to scare my daughters and sons, and later they used this excuse to scare their sons and daughters."
Xiao Feng's hand holding the fishing tackle suddenly started to tremble. "So there really aren't tigers in the West Mountain, are they?"
Sister Zhou glanced at Xiao Feng and said, "Are you stupid? If it really happened, we could come. I already said it was just an excuse to scare people."
Xiao Feng stopped shaking when he heard there were no tigers on the mountain. "Why do you want to scare people away from coming to Xishan?"
Uncle Chu pointed to a place not far away and said, "This place is remote, with a lot of trees and a reservoir. If a child runs over here and something happens, no one will hear them."
Jiang Hao nodded. "That's true. The village here is quite far from here. I guess apart from people like us who want to fish, there are probably not many people who come here."
Liang Song took the fishing rod and put on the bait. "You guys can find a place to play. I'll fish here. I think this place suits my taste. I should be able to catch a big fish."
Jiang Hao took Huhu for a stroll around, and Shi Luo also prepared the bait and started fishing.
About twenty minutes after the fishing rod was cast out, Shi Luo saw the float shaking slightly. After a while, the fishing rod in his hand felt heavier.
Shi Luo pulled the fishing rod up with all his strength, looked at the thing on the hook, and said with wide eyes, "Oh my god."
Liang Song heard Shi Luo's voice and looked up at the fishing rod. He was so scared that he squatted on the ground and said, "Oh my God."
When Jiang Hao heard Shi Luo's voice, he grabbed Huhu and ran over.
Before he could reach Shi Luo, he heard Uncle Zhou, who was not far away, say, "We caught something. The child can't see it. Xiao Jiang, cover the child's eyes. Xiao Feng, go and report it to the police."
Jiang Hao held the child in one hand and covered the child's eyes with the other. He stood next to Shi Luo and frowned when he saw what he had caught. "Our luck is really bad. We just went out fishing together and encountered something like this."
Huhu was not afraid even though he was blindfolded. He said obediently, "Dad, what did you catch? Huhu wants to see it."
Shi Luo threw the fishing rod to the ground with a gloomy face. "Be good, I won't look at it. I'll go back later and Dad will buy you something delicious."
Liang Song also threw the fishing rod to the ground with a gloomy look on his face. "What bad luck! I spent fifty cents to ask the uncle downstairs to make a fishing rod for me, and now I can't keep it."
Uncle Chu and Aunt Zhou put away their fishing rods.
Uncle Chu said, "Why can't I keep it? Just put it away and use it next time you go fishing somewhere else. You just got caught in the water, and it's not like you did when you were a kid, so it's okay."
Liang Song waved his hands repeatedly, "I don't want it anymore. That thing has been soaked in that water. It would be even worse if I took it back and used it on my wife."
Sister Zhou picked up Liang Song's fishing rod and put it together with her own. "If you don't want it, give it to me. I don't mind. You guys haven't seen much. In the early years when the situation was still chaotic, you might see a corpse at your doorstep when you slept at home and went out in the morning. People were poor at that time, and no one talked about moving. At most, they would get some water to clean the door.
We are lucky. If we had caught this fish first and then that one, we could have eaten it or not. But this way is fine. It's not a waste of time."
Liang Song vomited several times out of disgust when he heard what Sister Zhou said.
Uncle Chu helped Xiao Feng put away the fishing rod and some messy things. "Xiao Jiang, take your children and play away from here. We have to wait for the police to come for a while. This thing was caught when he was a child. It's better not to move it for now.
Don't worry, we're here with him. Xiao Liang, if you're scared, go play with Huhu with Xiao Jiang for a while. Come back when the police arrive."
Liang Song nodded repeatedly when he heard this, "Even though I can't leave, I'd still stay as far away as possible."
Shi Luo nodded at Jiang Hao and said, "You take Huhu out to play first. It's not good for the child to stay here for too long. I'm fine, don't worry."
Jiang Hao nodded and walked away with Huhu in his arms. However, he was worried about Shi Luo, so he didn't walk too far. He estimated that at Huhu's height, he couldn't see the body part blocked by the grass, so he stopped.
Huhu knew that the adults were busy, so he didn't make a fuss. He played obediently with Liang Song using his car and wooden gun. Jiang Hao kept Huhu company from time to time, and would look up at Shi Luo from time to time.
After a long time, Xiao Feng came over on a bicycle with six or seven police officers.
After the police came, they asked about the situation one by one, took down the home addresses and workplaces of several people, and then let them go.
Liang Song walked towards where the bicycle was parked and said, "I'm not going home directly. I need to find a bathhouse to take a shower. I think you should go with me, really. Otherwise, ah."
Before Liang Song could finish his words, he tripped and fell. Shi Luo, who was walking beside him, subconsciously reached out to help him. Jiang Hao, who was not holding the child's hand, grabbed Shi Luo.
"Wait a minute, there seems to be something under Brother Liang's feet."
Sister Zhou quickly helped him up and said, "Nonsense, how could Xiao Liang fall flat on his face without anything to hold?"
Liang Song stood up cursing and went to look at the thing that tripped him. "Fuck him, why am I so unlucky? Let me see what it is. Ah, police, police, police."
A policeman who was still retrieving body parts heard the noise and ran over in fear that something had happened.
"What's wrong?"
Liang Song pointed with trembling fingers, "Bones, bones, ahh ...
When Jiang Hao reminded him, Shi Luo saw that what was exposed outside the soil was the bone of a small arm with a human hand. It might have been exposed a little just now, but when Liang Song tripped, the whole thing was suddenly exposed.
After hearing what several people said, the police were convinced. What kind of luck did these people have? They found two body parts in such a short time, and it looked like they didn't belong to the same person.
