Next, Nangong Fan and I didn't have too much discussion, so we went to rest separately.
The next morning, after doing our morning homework, we walked around the streets of Baojiayao and bought breakfast.
While eating, we asked the breakfast vendor about the situation of missing children here.
The owner of the breakfast stall told us: "Those children were stolen while they were sleeping. One was taking a nap, and the other two were stolen at night. The adults woke up and saw that the children were missing. Who was the child?"
When it was stolen, the families couldn’t tell.”
"This matter has alerted the county's criminal investigation team. They came to investigate and found no clues. In short, this matter is very mysterious."
I curiously asked: "Didn't you find any clues?"
The owner of the breakfast stall looked at me, and then looked at Nangong Fancong a few more times. Probably because her dress was too special, but people nowadays are more knowledgeable, and even if they encounter strange clothes, they won’t.
It was such a surprised reaction that the most I could do was look at it a few more times.
After looking at us for a few times, the boss said: "You two foreigners, why are you so interested in the matter of losing a child?"
I know that if I continue to ask questions, we will arouse suspicion again.
So I quickly said: "Don't worry, we are not bad people. When we stayed in the hotel last night, the police had already verified our identities. We are all good people."
When I said this, the owner of the breakfast stall continued: "That's right. Those people who stole the children have never shown up in our village. They would not be as public as you and ask around. I guess you are just watching the fun."
of."
I smiled and said, "Yes, we are just curious."
The owner of the breakfast stall looked around and said: "I heard, it's not that I didn't find anything at all, it's just that the clues I found were a bit strange. The police station has never made it public. My brother-in-law works at the police station. He told me privately.
I'm telling you, don't go around talking nonsense."
At this point, the owner of the breakfast stall said: "People from the county criminal investigation team found a few tufts of yellow hair at the scene of the three missing children. Later, after testing, they said they were from weasels."
"But for a weasel, if you steal a chicken, the boss will be disturbed, let alone steal a child, unless the weasel becomes a spirit."
Hearing this, I curiously asked: "Besides those hairs, is there nothing else found?"
The breakfast stall owner said: "No more!"
I tried to ask: "Can you tell us where the three families who lost their children live? We want to go there and have a look."
The owner of the breakfast stall smiled and said: "You guys really love to join in the fun. If you walk along this street, there is a shop selling fertilizer at the top. That family just lost their child half a month ago. He was only seven months old.
However, I advise you not to poke other people’s scars, just listen to what I am saying here.”
Nangong Fan and I nodded.
But we still walked over there. There were more and more people on the street, and the two of us attracted more and more attention. Of course, it was Nangong Fanxong who attracted more and more attention.
Soon we arrived at the door of the fertilizer store, which had just opened. There was only an old man with white hair sitting in the store. He looked at us coming in and asked us something in words we didn't understand.
I speak in Mandarin and I don't understand the dialect.
The old man asked us in Mandarin that we could barely understand what we were doing here and whether we wanted to buy fertilizer.
I said: "No, we heard that your family lost a child. Can we go to your home to see the scene where the child was lost? We specialize in cracking down on human traffickers!"
I said something casually.
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then led us directly to the backyard of the store. There were several tile-roofed houses in the backyard. The old man pointed at one of them and said: "My grandson lost it when he was taking a nap in that house.
My daughter-in-law was also inside at that time, and I was still sitting in the store. No one came in, but it was just during a nap time that the child was lost..."
As he said that, the old man's eyes turned red.
His grandson was lost, and he must have been very anxious. There has been no news these days, so he was a little sick and rushed to the doctor. We casually mentioned his identity, and he believed it. His heart has reached the most vulnerable point.
People at this time are the most gullible. As long as others say something related to children, they will believe it.
Seeing that the old man was about to cry, I quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, the child will definitely be found."
The old man asked us if we had any clues.
Nangong Fan and I quickly shook our heads, wondering where we would get any clues.
However, we still went to the room to check it out. There was a bed and simple furniture in the room. The doors and windows were all made of aluminum alloy and could be locked from the inside but could not be opened from the outside.
I checked the place with my luck and adjusted my breath, but I didn't find any special smell.
I asked Nangong Fan in a low voice if he could find some evil spirit or something.
Nangong Fancong shook his head and said, "No, it's very clean here!"
As he spoke, Nangong Fancong turned around and asked the old man: "Old man, I heard someone said that when the police investigated your home, they found a few tufts of yellow hair. Is it true? Where was the hair found?"
Hearing Nangong Fan's question, the old man pointed to a corner in the northwest corner of the bed and said, "It's that corner. Later, someone said it belonged to a weasel. They also said that the weasel took my grandson away. The wall of my house is so high.
, there are no holes around, how could the weasel carry the child away without making any sound, and besides, it can’t even hang it up!”
We took a few glances at the northwest corner of the bed, and now the bed has been tidied up neatly. We wonder what it was like on the day the child was lost.
Nangong Fanxong and I looked here for a while. After finding no clues, we were ready to leave.
When we left, I curiously asked the old man where the other people in his family were. The old man said: "They all went to find their children. My legs and feet are not good and I can't walk far, so I stay here to look after the store. I
My son, daughter-in-law, old woman, and relatives all went to help find the child."
I asked where to find it.
The old man said: "Looking everywhere, but there are no clues anyway, so I'm going to ask around eight villages to see if I can get some news about the child."
We came out of the fertilizer store and were about to go back to the hotel, but after we walked a few steps, we suddenly saw a group of people running in one direction in front of us.
I hurried over to ask what happened, and a young man said to us: "We lost our child again. Just now, our villagers are preparing to search the whole village. The child was lost only ten minutes ago."
If not, the thief who stole the child will definitely not be able to escape far."
Lost the child again?
Nangong Fancong and I didn't chase him rashly, but asked where the family who lost the child lived.
The young man pointed ahead and saw a small wedding shop in the village.
Many people gathered around the door of the store, and we went to join in the fun. A woman wearing shorts and shorts cried at the door: "I put the child to sleep and put it on the bed. Then I went to the toilet by myself. I will be back in less than ten minutes."
Then the child was lost, and I don’t know what happened. There was surveillance at the door of my house, and no one came into our house!"
A man next to him was begging the villagers to spread out and search in the village, saying that the thief who stole the child must not have gone far yet.
Everyone was very enthusiastic, some rushed over to listen, and some immediately went around the village to look for it.
Nangong Fancong and I stood at the door for a while, and then I asked the young couple, "Can we go inside and have a look."
A child was just lost here. If it was caused by a demon, it would definitely have left a trace. We are going to investigate and we will definitely find something.
I don't know much about evil spirits, so I checked at the door and found nothing.
Nangong Fanxong whispered to me: "There really is a demon, and the demon hasn't left yet. It's in their house, and the children are also there!"
The two young men disagreed when they saw that we were strangers. But at this time, the old man from the fertilizer store rushed over. He said to the young couple: "Tianqi, they specialize in cracking down on human traffickers. Just now they were at my house."
If you have seen it, let them go to your house and have a look, maybe they can really find clues to the human traffickers."
With someone speaking to Nangong Fanxing for me, the young couple agreed.
After Nangong Fan went in, she ran directly to the bedroom. As she walked, she asked: "Is the child lost in this room?"
The woman nodded.
Nangong Fancong entered the house without any explanation, and I also hurried in.
At this time, in addition to the young couple who lost their child, the owner of the fertilizer store, and seven or eight nearby villagers came to watch the fun.
After entering the room, Nangong Fanxong and I invariably looked at the northwest corner of the bed, looking for any weasel hairs.
I didn't find anything.
Nangong Fancong turned around and said, "The parents of the child will stay. Can the others go out first?"
Those people have no intention of leaving.
Nangong Fan was a little angry and said, "Do you still want your child to come back?"
Hearing what Nangong Fan said, the young couple quickly asked us if they could get their child back.
Nangong Fan said impatiently: "It's okay now, but we won't know if it's a little later. Let them all go out quickly."
The young couple quickly invited all the villagers out.
After closing the doors, the woman who lost her child asked Nangong Fancong, "Where is our child?"
Nangong Fanxong said: "Next, no matter what you see, you must keep it a secret, and you cannot tell others casually, otherwise your child will be lost again, do you understand?"
The young couple nodded.
Then Nangong Fancong took a finger and hit it towards the northwest corner of the bed.
"Bang!"
With a flash of silver light, I discovered that a child was sleeping soundly lying on the corner of the bed, and there was a tuft of yellow hair on the child's belly.
I couldn't help but be surprised. The weasel hair was used as a concealment tool. The child was not stolen, but was hidden by the weasel demon using a concealment method. It would wait for the family to go out to find the child and then return to the house.
When a child is stolen and someone is at home, it must be impossible to obtain it directly for some reason!
Thinking of this, I was ready to ask Nangong Fanxing if the weasel demon was still here, but before I could ask, she said two words: "Run away!"
At this time, the young couple was also dumbfounded. They were stunned for a while and then went over to pick up the child. Of course, before they picked up the child, Nangong Fan had already put away the weasel fur.
The young couple hugged the child for a while, then gradually came to their senses, knelt down in front of me and Nangong Fanxong, and called us: "Living gods!" (To be continued)
