A rotten hand suddenly appeared on the boy's mother's belly. She trembled with fright and fainted to the ground. The husband rushed forward to rescue her and shouted her name loudly. Professor Liang picked up the hand, and everyone looked up in unison.
Looking at it head first, it was obvious that this hand fell from the sky.
Assistant Tang stood on the millstone, looked at the Huangjue tree and shouted: Who is on top?
Hua Long took out his gun. Everyone thought there was a person hiding in the tree, so they dropped the hand. It was difficult to see clearly in the night. Hua Long fired a gun at the tree, and two crows screamed "wow wow" and flew away.
gone.
A woman from the neighbor's house next door heard the gunshots, curiously opened the window and stuck her head in to watch.
Her man gritted his teeth and said, "You bitch bitch, what are you looking at? Hurry up and close the window. I'll shoot you to death. It won't do any good if the crow crows."
Two crows circled and flew around the yellow oak tree, making strange cries from time to time. Crows are often regarded as evil birds and like to build nests in desolate fields or around gloomy cemeteries. This tree is in front of the old house of the deceased boy.
There was a crow's nest on a lonely dead tree. Hualong climbed up the tree, and a crow attacked him. Hualong took aim and fired, and the crow fluttered its wings and landed on the ground. When Hualong came down from the tree, he
The crow's nest was also dug down. Bao Zhan smelled it and found that the crow's nest smelled like carrion.
This rotten little hand should have fallen from the crow's nest.
A neighbor reported that the grave of the boy in red was dug up, and a sudden heavy rain made the work of identifying footprints in the cemetery aborted. Bao Zhan, Assistant Tang and the neighbor who led the way looked at the empty grave in a daze, while heavy rain fell in the field.
Who dug this grave? Where did the body of the boy in red go?
There was water in the tomb, and all traces of the crime disappeared with the heavy rain. From the descriptions of witnesses and neighbors, we can judge that someone should have dragged the boy in red out of the tomb with a rope. It looked like a corpse crawled out.
grave.
The boy's mother had woken up and claimed that she would sell the old house and never come back. Professor Liang comforted the deceased's parents and said that the police would investigate the matter of the missing body until the truth was revealed.
After returning to the forest public security expert police station, the four members of the special case team were soaked in the rain and exhausted. Assistant Tang took out some clean clothes from the duty room for them to change into. On this day, everyone experienced many incredible and strange things.
, first he knocked on the door in the middle of the night, and a green corpse liquid handprint was left on the door. Then he went to the old house of the deceased boy to investigate, and another hand fell from the tree. When he rushed to the tomb to investigate, the body of the boy in red was missing.
…
Assistant Tang made a pot of hot tea and took out the bags of roast chicken and canned beef. Everyone had no intention of eating and only drank tea around the table.
Professor Liang held a cup filled with steam and said: This case is very strange, everything is so weird.
Assistant Tang said: We don’t have many cases of digging up graves and stealing corpses here.
Su Mei said: If the child's body was buried shallowly, would it have been dug up by wild dogs or wild boars?
Bao Zhan said: Judging from the scene, it doesn't look like it was done by an animal. Someone clearly dug up the grave and dragged away the body.
Assistant Tang said: What is the purpose of robbing the body? Is it to destroy the body and eliminate traces, or is there some other ulterior secret?
Bao Zhan suddenly said: I know what happened when you knocked on the door in the middle of the night.
Hualong said: Could it be related to crows?
Bao Zhan said: Yes, someone is playing tricks, putting a rotten little hand on the nail of the door knocker, and then leaving quietly. The purpose of this is to scare us and make us withdraw from the case. The corpse fluid is sticky and the smell of rotten flesh is spreading.
The smell attracted a crow. The crow came to peck at the door and made a knocking sound. When we opened the door, the crow flew away and took the rotten little hand in its mouth. The crow flies very fast and cannot be seen at night.
It was clear, so we thought there was someone knocking on the door, but when we opened the door we couldn't see anyone.
Professor Liang said: The crow is a carrion-eating bird. It pecks at the corpse and returns it to the nest with one hand. The hand falls on the belly of the boy's mother. Next, we need to find out what this hand is.
Whose.
Assistant Tang said: You can compare the DNA with the children who died mysteriously recently.
Professor Liang said: Does anyone know the whereabouts of our special case team?
Assistant Tang said: Many people know that some leaders are very concerned about the case. The leaders of the city government, the Public Safety Experts Bureau, and the Education Committee are all very concerned about the recent series of mysterious deaths of children. I have received many calls asking questions.
In the history of crime, there have been many cases of animals searching for corpses.
A couple in a place in western Yunnan had a conflict. The husband killed his wife and buried her in a remote dripping pit. She also planted sugar cane around it to cover people's eyes and ears. Many crows gathered around the kang every day. Later, the crows became more and more popular.
There were many, hundreds of them, which attracted the attention of the villagers. The police concluded that there was rotten matter in the pit and finally arrested the husband.
Ran Yanhai, a man from Fengjie County, strangled his 60-year-old mother to death after being drunk and buried her body on the slope behind the house. Later, Ran lied to his family and neighbors that his mother was mentally ill and had left home. He did not expect that Huang, whom his mother had raised for nearly ten years, would
The dog barked at the slope every day. When someone passed by the slope, the old yellow dog kept whining at the person while digging at the slope. The entire slope was covered with dog scratches. The village chief became suspicious and ordered people to dig away the soil.
, a female corpse wrapped in a blanket appeared.
The next day, the special case team and Assistant Tang went to investigate the two drowned children. Both boys were studying in Dongyang Primary School in the town. The boy's name was Cai Mingliang and the girl's name was Cai Xiaoxi. Both children were ten years old and attended primary school.
In the third grade, we are in the same class and at the same table.
The Forest Public Security Expert Police Station is not far from Dongyang Primary School. After a circuit of the winding mountain road, we arrived at the town where the primary school is located.
Sewage is everywhere in the town, and there is an unpleasant smell, which is so foul and smelly that it makes people suspect that every household's toilet has been dumped on the street. Su Mei extracted the residue from the stomach of the dead crow last night, along with the
Assistant Tang sent people to the city bureau for laboratory analysis of the rotting hands and the green corpse fluid sample on the door. Although the smell in the town was disgusting, Su Mei didn't eat anything all night. She saw the school entrance
There is a tea egg seller and I want to buy a few tea eggs to fill my stomach.
There was a pot of eggs sitting on the small coal stove. The stall owner was a middle-aged woman in simple clothes. She cracked the eggshells and put them in to cook.
Su Mei asked about the price, and it turned out to be one yuan and a half, which was more expensive than other tea eggs.
The stall owner said: The baby eggs are absolutely genuine.
Su Mei asked, what is a boy egg? Isn't this a tea egg?
Seeing that Su Mei was a foreigner, the stall owner grinned and replied, "They are tea eggs. Eggs boiled with good tea leaves are delicious."
The water in which the eggs were boiled looked yellow with some foam floating on it. Bao Zhan smelled it and said it smelled a bit like urine.
The stall owner praised: These are eggs boiled in a child's urine, and they are very nutritious.
Hua Long was furious. The eggs boiled with urine were sold on the street. He rushed forward and tried to overturn the pot of the middle-aged woman. Assistant Tang and Bao Zhan stopped him. Professor Liang advised him, "Xiao Long, don't do this."
Do as the locals do and respect other people's eating habits. Only then did Hua Long notice that there were stalls selling baby eggs at market entrances and snack shops in the town, and there was an endless stream of diners buying baby eggs.
Dongyang Town has a tradition of boiling eggs with baby urine. It is said that baby eggs have been declared an intangible cultural heritage. They believe that eggs cooked with baby urine are the best choice for tonic.
The special case team entered Dongyang Primary School. They found a red plastic bucket placed in the corridor of the classroom. They didn't know what it was used for. After a while, the bell rang and the children poured out of the classroom. Several primary school students did not go to the toilet but peed directly in it.
In a plastic bucket.
A young teacher surnamed Mao in the office received the special case team and Assistant Tang. Teacher Mao explained that eating baby eggs is an old local custom. Those vendors who sell baby eggs or people who want to cook baby eggs will eat them.
Carrying plastic buckets to various primary schools to collect children's urine. Teachers and students are not surprised by this. When boys in grades one to three want to urinate, they will point at the plastic buckets outside the classroom, and the teacher will remind the children
Do not pee in a plastic bucket when you are sick with a cold.
Teacher Mao said: I eat two every day.
Bao Zhan asked: What does the boy's egg taste like?
Teacher Mao said: It is very fragrant and a little salty. Even the egg yolk is salty. You cannot eat too much at one time. It is best to eat two.
Teacher Mao teaches mathematics and is also the class teacher of Cai Mingliang and Cai Xiaoxi. He said that the two children are very strange. They come to school together and walk together after school. No matter where they are, they are always in pairs. Now they have drowned together. It’s really
strangeness.
Su Mei said: "Isn't this strange? The two children are from the same village. They take care of each other when they go to and from school."
Professor Liang said: Can you tell us more about the behavior of the two children on the day of the crime? What time did they leave the school?
Teacher Mao said: Their test scores were the same, and they both failed. I suspected that they were cheating and plagiarizing from each other, so I left them to make up for the exam. When we left the school, it was already dark.
Bao Zhan said: At that time, these two children were the only ones left in the school?
Su Mei said: The village where the two children live is quite far away from the school and is on a mountain road. Don’t you think you are also responsible?
Teacher Mao said: What's wrong with asking students to make up the exam if they failed the exam and cheated? Besides, these two children are different from others. I think they are in love.
Bao Zhan said: Today's children are too precocious, right? Two ten-year-olds falling in love?
Teacher Mao said: Cai Mingliang calls Cai Xiaoxi his guest.
Assistant Tang said: "The guest here means my wife."
Teacher Mao said: Teachers and classmates in the school all knew that they had improper relationships between men and women.
Professor Liang asked: Improper relationship between men and women?
Teacher Mao replied: Although these two children are only ten years old, they are a young couple!
