This girl and I only met her once. She was in a key university and had a great future, but she was gone just by saying that.
Yapo also has several distant relatives who moved to other places many years ago and rarely interact with each other.
From the day Lao Tian disappeared, strange things happened in the village. Finally, some young people who were not superstitious called the police. People from the county police station came over that afternoon.
When I saw the police car, I sneaked out of the crowd.
The police from the Dao County Police Station took Ya Po for treatment and buried her the same day. After visiting and asking, the police learned that a group of outsiders had recently come to the village. They found the landlord, who in turn led them to us.
"You said you are from Beijing? For tourism?"
No notes were taken, so a police officer in his forties asked casually.
There was nothing strange about his head and face, and he glanced at me.
I immediately smiled and said, "Yes, we are from Tongzhou, Beijing. We are also lovers of folk culture and art. We saw the Guiziling ruins on TV last year, so we came to visit and travel."
"By the way, I am friends with Commissioner Yang Dazhi from the County Cultural Relics Administration Bureau. I just came back from him a few days ago."
"oh?"
"Where is the ID card? Let me take a look."
We took out our ID cards one by one, and he frowned and asked, "Northeast, Henan, Fujian, Shandong...are you not from the same place?"
I smiled and said yes, we all come from all over the world.
The driver of the Santana police car was a young police officer with short hair and in his twenties. He returned his ID card to us and said: "After reading this, leave quickly. There was a person missing in Guizailing last year, and he was like you."
Lovers, if you need help with anything, you can..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly became stunned and stared at one place.
I followed his gaze and saw several leather buckets placed in the corner. They were all covered with lids and the color was a bit eye-catching.
It's natural for mice to be afraid of cats. Even though Dou Sprout always purrs, he is a little nervous now, clenching his fists and then subconsciously unclenching them.
"So many barrels? What's in the barrels?" asked the young police officer at the police station.
My heart skipped a beat.
The bucket was full of dry wetsuits... Xiaoxuan had brushed them a few days ago and left them in the bucket untouched.
I smiled and said, "Well, those are all old clothes. There is no electricity here in the winter, so the clothes cannot be washed clean. They have to be soaked for several days. If you don't believe me, ask the landlord."
The landlord stood behind the policeman. He nodded immediately and said, "Yes, there is no electricity here. I haven't paid the electricity bill for several years. I even removed the electricity meter."
"Okay, okay, let's go, Xiao Liu. Let's go back to the hospital for dinner. It was an accidental death. We have to send the old lady to the hospital in the afternoon."
Seeing the two of them turn and leave, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, one foot crossed the threshold. The young police officer suddenly turned around and walked back. As he walked, he said, "Let me take a look."
I was scared out of my wits. Xiaoxuan had a dark face and said nothing, and Dou Sprout looked like he was about to cry.
Before he could think of what to say, the young police officer opened the lid of the bucket.
He looked into the buckets one by one, turned around, nodded to me, and left.
Xiaoxuan immediately ran out and took a look, "It's gone."
"Close the door quickly." I said.
I ran over and took a look. What was soaking in the bucket was just ordinary clothes.
What's going on? Where's the borrowed wetsuit?
At this time, he patted me on the head with a smile and said: "Yunfeng, we must never forget our identity. We will never do this again."
Uncle Xue also smiled and said a few words to me.
As for this small detail, I didn't take it seriously at all, but I hid my diving suit in advance. Moreover, if a situation like this happened, he might have thought of what I would say...
If we were really caught, we wouldn't be able to explain it clearly with a hundred words.
You can’t just bring a tank diving suit and go catch fish in a small pond, right?
No one would believe that there were no fish in the pond. The next step was to find the casing Luoyang shovel in our box under the bed in the house, and then directly arrested us.
After dinner, I was running water in the toilet outside the courtyard when my head suddenly came in. He unbuttoned his pants and said: "Yunfeng, at 3:30, go to the village head alone and wait to get the letter. Don't go back to get it. Just read it.
