Madness of the Heart

Chapter 136 Crazy Wolf (20)

The roar of the generator reverberated in the mountains, and the strong light would illuminate the villages and towns filled with ignorance as bright as day.

The snow almost stopped.

All the townspeople—including Luo Yichun who helped Xiang Tao—have been gathered and are being interrogated one by one.

At the same time, Luo Xueyan led the special operations team to the Chicken Congee Mountain in the west of Silin Town.

She was wrapped in Mingshu’s winter police uniform, which was too long, and the hem almost fell to the ground. She clutched the police uniform with both hands tightly, walking very hard in the mountains, her face was abnormally red, she kept breathing, her eyes shed tears from time to time, her face was numb from freezing, sometimes the tears slipped down her face, but there was nothing. aware.

Ming Shu asked her if she needed a rest, she shook her head vigorously, wiped away the tears, and said firmly: “I don’t rest, I can hold on.”

There are a total of four brick-and-wood houses on the ground and two hidden caves on Jiconge Mountain. When showing the last cave to Ming Shu, Luo Xueyan finally couldn’t hold it, and her outstretched hand dropped weakly, and her whole body tilted to the side.

Ming Shu hugged her firmly and whispered, “Thank you, little hero.”

The sight of the brick-timbered house and cave made everyone present speechless.

It is a cold winter at this time. In rural areas, it is believed that if a child is born in the cold winter, it will be difficult for both mother and child to survive. At this time, no babies were born in Silin Town, and naturally there were no girls waiting for bad luck in these six places. But whether it is in a brick-and-wood house or in a cave, there are many old incubators and stained medical equipment-they seem to be discarded equipment in the hospital.

Before she fell into a coma, Luo Xueyan pointed to one of the brick-and-wood houses and said that two years ago, she was there to witness the whole process of “master craftsman” making “ghost cards”.

The trace inspector sighed repeatedly after the investigation was completed, “All the brick houses and caves do not have necessary cleaning equipment. The water is carried from the village, a bucket and a pipe. The air inside is turbid, and the blood is still present. No dispersal. Bloodstains can be seen everywhere. I would like to make an inappropriate analogy-it’s nothing more than a slaughterhouse.”

The word “slaughterhouse” made all people with a conscience angry, but the townspeople and “master craftsmen” thought that sending “useless” baby girls to the mountains was a matter of course.

The search is still going on. Luo Xueyan knows a lot, but does not know how the “master craftsmen” dealt with the baby girl’s corpse. Shen Xun suspected that they were buried in one place, but Ming Shu suddenly thought of what he heard from Niu Tianlan about the funeral home when he interrogated Niu Tianlan before.

This demon who enjoys eating women’s lips believes that funeral homes are the best place to destroy corpses. People who work in funeral homes have a natural advantage in handling corpses. However, a funeral home that is well managed has loopholes. As long as you learn to use loopholes, it is more convenient to mix the victim’s body into it and burn it.

It is far away from Dongye City, but who can tell that there are no demons in the funeral home nearby?

Mingshu returned to the central area of ​​Silin Town. Unable to immediately transfer the townspeople to Xiaxi City, the police officers set up a temporary police station in Luo Yichun’s yard. Not long ago, the townspeople, who were still reliant on the large number of people and the arrogance, have now disappeared-these people are not afraid of single-handed police, not afraid of ordinary police, they have eyesight, and when surrounded by special police with live ammunition, they probably understand their own. Situation.

A group of special police officers patrolled outside the yard with rifles. Ming Shu greeted them and entered the yard.

“Girls are born useless, can’t do heavy work, can’t inherit the family, and have to open their mouths to eat. How can our family afford to raise so many girls.” A woman in her 50s said nonchalantly-she said It was in the native dialect, and the words that kept spitting out of her mouth were like vicious spells, and the local policewoman who was translating on the side was choked with sobs.

“Do you know what your child will experience after being taken away?” Ming Shu asked.

The woman’s expression hardly changed, “I know.”

“Know what?” Ming Shu punched his right fist on the table.

The woman was taken aback, and said: “Yes, I will become a son of God.”

Ming Shu repeatedly confirmed with the translator and learned that what the woman wanted to express was angels and elves.

“Then do you know that they are all dead?” Ming Shu suppressed his anger.

“I know.” The woman actually laughed. “Their souls become gods and protect those who need them. Go to the big city and live a good life.”

Some people look down on life and death because they have experienced too much in their lives and have been able to face everything openly. Others look down on life and death simply because they are stupid! For example, the women in Silin Town who knew their daughter was killed but never resisted and kept giving birth.

Ming Shu desperately wanted to smoke, pumping the smoke into his lungs, which might make him feel better—even if Xiao Yuan was not allowed to smoke, he hadn’t smoked much in the past six months under Xiao Yuan’s supervision.

“How much can you get when you sell a baby girl?” Ming Shu continued to ask.

The woman stretched out her right hand, and opened her five fingers, which were rough and black because of her long work.

“500 yuan.”

In Sulin Town, a baby girl is only worth 500 yuan.

No, it should be exactly that the parents of Silin Town can only sell their daughter for 500 yuan.

500 yuan can buy a life. And the “ghost cards” made from their blood can sell for tens of thousands or millions, and even rich people who are keen on this sorcery don’t hesitate to spend tens of millions of dollars to buy them.

The money paid by these “good people” is enough to feed an abandoned baby girl.

Luo Xueyan’s father Luo Xuegang was also being questioned.

When facing Ming Shu, there was much resentment in his eyes. He even gritted his teeth when he heard the words “Luo Xueyan”.

“You brought the hormone pills home and let Luo Xueyan’s mother coax her to take it?” Ming Shu said, “Do you understand the meaning of hormones? Do you know how much damage a 12-year-old girl will suffer from using hormones? ?”

Luo Xuegang snorted coldly, speaking very quickly.

The policewoman squeezed her fists,” he said, in rural areas, if pigs are always not fat, they must be fattened with medicine, otherwise they will not be able to sell a good price. Luo Xueyan is so thin, she has been underdeveloped, and cannot be pregnant without development, so she must give She takes medicine.”

He has been in the police for many years and has contacted countless perverted suspects, but Ming Shu could not find a second group whose humanity has been extinguished so far.

All the townspeople who were interrogated did not think they were committing a crime, and some even thought they were accumulating virtue. Throughout the night, Ming Shu heard the most words-we are poor, what is the use of raising girls, in the end, it is not to marry, it is better to sell a good price.

Even Luo Yichun has given up his children.

She is the youngest of all pregnant women, and the fetus in her arms is 6 months old. After the beginning of spring, she will give birth.

This is not the first time she has become a mother. Last fall, she gave birth to a baby girl. And she is only 17 years old this year.

The disaster that had not yet come to Luo Xueyan became her nightmare a few years ago.

Silin Town is not just beginning to use hormones on girls, Luo Yichun is the last group of victims.

She was born in Silin Town 17 years ago and was not killed, but survived as a “fertility resource”. When she was 14 years old, she was injected with a lot of hormones, and her body began to accelerate development, followed by pregnancy and childbirth. The baby girl born was made a “ghost card.”

Some of the wealthy people who buy “ghost cards” have a special hobby – they like young mothers.

They believe that the younger the mother, the cleaner, the more divine the child born, and the easier it is to help oneself realize his wishes.

The “master craftsman” did what he liked and fryed the young mother’s children at sky-high prices. Luo Yichun’s last child sold the highest price so far in Silin Town. When protecting Xiang Tao and Luo Xueyan, the reason why Luo Yichun dared to face the frenzied townspeople alone and aimed a sharp knife at his abdomen was because he knew that they would not dare to do anything to himself.

She is pregnant with a “golden doll”.

And the corpse in her house is his husband. Half a month ago, she was mad and smashed him to death with a hammer, and threw him in the room where the farm tools were installed. No town residents found it.

Unlike Luo Xueyan, there was almost no light left in Luo Yichun’s eyes, no difference from her mother and elders.

“Baby girl…” Luo Yichun stared at Ming Shu with straight eyes, “Why do you want to live? She is so young, she doesn’t know anything, maybe she can’t even feel the pain, isn’t it best to die? Why grow up? What are the benefits of growing up? Growing up…isn’t it like me anymore? Me, I’m better than dead.”

A line of tears fell from Luo Yichun’s eyes. She might not have noticed it at all. She said to herself: “I envy my sisters. They were killed as soon as they were born. They don’t have to bear the pain I endured, and they don’t need to look at the nastyness of this world. My daughter—she doesn’t have a name, I gave her a name, Xiaoxing—”

Finally, Luo Yichun’s voice became choked, “I’m glad that my Xiaoxing was killed as soon as she was born. Although her life is short, at least she doesn’t need to be like me.”

After a pause, Luo Yichun said again: “Xueyan is a good boy. She is braver and luckier than me. Like her, I also learn Mandarin from TV, and I think someone will come to rescue me one day. But , But I did not wait until that day.”

The policewoman said: “You’re waiting!”

Luo Yichun smiled sadly and shook his head, “It’s different. She still has a long life. Under your protection, she will lead a normal life. I…I can’t do it.”

Luo Yichun did not go further, but Ming Shu already understood.

They are still late.

Luo Yichun has been “killed” by this town, becoming a half-crazy and half-awake monster. She was forced to grow and become pregnant. She watched her daughter be taken away and killed, and killed her husband after another pregnancy.

And when someone finally tore through the darkness here, she stood up like a warrior-but this couldn’t change the fact that she had been destroyed.

The cigarette burned at his fingertips, and Ming Shu rubbed his face severely.

The sky was almost bright, and the sporadic snow fell again.

The people at the top of the “Ghost” organization interest chain are not in Silin Town. Only the assistants of the “Master Craftsman” and the “Master Craftsman” have contacted them. Ordinary townspeople-such as Luo Yichun-never I know what kind of human skin monsters are those who spend 500 yuan to buy baby girls.

Hong Xinzhang, 66 years old, is the “master craftsman” with the most experience in making “ghost cards” in Silin Town, and is also the town’s leader. He decides which baby girls will be made as “ghost cards” and which “babies” will survive. This person is not from Silin Town. He came to Silin Town more than 20 years ago. Many people who have placed “orders” came here and reported his name.

Facing the criminal police, Hong Xinzhang seemed to have settled, without saying a word.

“Who is instructing you to do this kind of thing?” Shen Xun asked, “Apart from Silin Town, where do you still’collect’ baby girls?”

Hong Xinzhang made no response.

But as long as it is an experienced policeman, he can see that he is not unintelligible, nor is he as ignorant as the townspeople. The greed in his eyes proves that he is truly evil!

He knows what he is doing and uses it to make huge profits. He even knew that the arrest was his inevitable end, but it was early and late on this day.

He had committed evil for twenty years before the old crimes were revealed. At this time, he might be proud of himself.

“Don’t tell me?” Shen Xun said, “If I can catch you today, I will be able to catch those people behind you. How long do you think you can stay at ease?”

Hong Xinzhang’s eyelids moved slightly.

Shen Xun said, “Are you ready to speak?”

“You…” Hong Xinzhang said in a very strange tone: “You are dirty and ignorant.”

“I will return this sentence to you as it is.” Shen Xun said, “Plus-evil, stupid, vicious, despicable, ugly, smelly!”

Hong Xinzhang widened his eyes in surprise.

“You don’t want to say it, it’s okay, I won’t force you to say it. You have so many lives in your hands, and the lives of innocent babies, no matter how you confess, and provide as many key clues as you want, the law will not lenient you. ‘.” Shen Xun’s eyes were extremely cold, “You, like the villain hiding behind you, will definitely wait until your end!”

“You nonsense!” Hong Xinzhang suddenly roared.

“Why, you misunderstood your divine elders?” Shen Xun stared at this dirty old thing coldly.

Hong Xinzhang’s composure just now was obviously a disguise. The townspeople praised him as the messenger of the gods, maybe over time, even he himself has forgotten, and he is nothing but an ant in the world.

But what Shen Xun said just now was like a pair of giant hands, pulling him out of the illusion.

“It’s not my fault! I’m not the mastermind, I just take money to do things!” Hong Xinzhang’s angry and anxious look is no different from ordinary criminals. He knows that he has committed a crime and is eager to distinguish himself and show his innocence.

Obviously, someone once told him that you only need to make “ghost cards” and I will be responsible for the rest. Don’t be afraid. How can the messengers of the gods panic? I am responsible for everything. Nothing will happen. Even if something happens, I will bear the consequences. Remember, you are just a “master craftsman” and you don’t know anything!

“Who is the mastermind?” Shen Xun said, “Forget it, it is unrealistic to ask you to tell the mastermind. Just talk about who made you a’master craftsman’ here, and who is having economic dealings with you. ”

While Hong Xinzhang confessed, other “master craftsmen” also poured out the truth.

They are not religious people. They have not been exposed to any cults before becoming “master craftsmen”. They are the poorest farmers in the northern mountains. They have never read books, and most of them have not even walked out of the mountains.

Someone gathered them together, gave them warm clothes, served them with delicious food and drink, and then handed them the cut pieces of locust wood and a sharp knife, and asked them to take out the small animals from the iron cage. Then kill and pour blood on the wooden sign.

Initially, they killed poultry such as chickens and ducks. No one finds it strange, because no matter how poor the rural areas are, they have to kill chickens and ducks during the Spring Festival and have a good meal.

Later, chickens and ducks became guinea pigs, rabbits, and chinchillas, and later, cats and dogs.

Finally, when a little baby was put into the cage, they looked at each other, and no one dared to pick it up.

Someone said: “This is a child. Murder is a crime, right?”

The man who has been with them said: “Killing can be a crime, or it can be a benefit to the common people, it depends on the purpose of your killing.”

Soon, someone raised their hand and replied: “It’s to make a’ghost card’.”

The man smiled, “So, why do we make “ghost cards”?”

“In order to make money!”

“In order to satisfy the buyer’s wishes!”

“in order to……”

The people talked and talked, the atmosphere was thoroughly mobilized, and finally, someone took the baby out of the cage.

Hong Xinzhang remembered that among their group of people, he stabbed the first time.

“The one who taught me to kill is called the Shaman, but I haven’t seen him for many years. He is older than me and may no longer be there. The people who have contacted me in the past few years are not sure, they are all young people. They told me the name of the customer and the negotiated price.” Hong Xinzhang said: “After the customer finds me, I will take them up the mountain to see their children who’reserved’. In fact, all children are the same, and the production of’ghost cards’ is also the same. The same, but some customers have money, and sell them a set of “ghost cards” that can sell them for several million. Some are poorer, so they charge tens of thousands. Some customers will not come by themselves, and they will sell the “ghost cards”. Take it away.”

Hong Xinzhang took out his mobile phone, and the call records showed all fake numbers.

Shen Xun asked the technical team to track it immediately.

“After you kill the baby girl, how do you deal with the corpse?” Shen Xun asked.

Hong Xinzhang said: “Someone will take it, take it, take it and burn it.”

“Who?”

“People at the funeral home.”

Mingshu’s judgment was correct, and the “Southern Suburb” funeral home in Xiaxi City was also involved in this crime.

Different from the “West Moon” funeral home in Dongye City, the “West Moon” is relatively formal. At present, only Niu Tianlan is known to use the loopholes to burn the victim’s body, while the “South Suburb” funeral home turned out to be a collective crime from managers to ordinary employees. !

In investigating the case, the special operations team had rights that the local police did not have, and Shen Xun ordered the entire “Southern Suburb” funeral home to be sealed off.

Liu Xinren, 58, the second-in-command of the “Southern Suburbs” funeral home, finally admitted under repeated police interrogation that the “Southern Suburbs” funeral home not only cremated the baby girls sent from Silin Town, but also had at least five villages and towns. Come to them and focus on cremation.

These five villages are Shanxiang Village, Chi’an Town, Xiutian Town, Fujia Village, and Minquan Village.

Adding the town of Silin, this is likely to be the “production base” of the “ghost” industry.

Continuing the investigation, the police in Dongye City were not able to do much, but before Mingshu went to Xiaxi City, Zhou Yuan began to track the springboard IP on the “Their Voice” forum and the mobile phone of the “ghost” purchaser. Disguise the number. The other party is obviously a master on the Internet. He played extremely well with intrusion, anti-tracking, and viruses. Zhou Yuan was busy all night, even when he was sleeping, he was sorting out his thoughts, and finally digging out the people hiding behind.

This is a transnational criminal organization. They are not only killing female infants in our country. In other words, killing girls to make “ghost cards” is just one of their large businesses. Six villages and towns in northern China are one of their outlets. The “ghost cards” made are not actually sold in the country at first, but are sold in the country. The form of smuggling is sold to Southeast Asia and South Asia, where many wealthy people believe that Sophora wood can lock the soul of “Ghost Infant” and as long as their heart is sincere, they can let “Ghost Infant” serve themselves.

Later, when the so-called “business” stabilized, they gradually opened up sales in China. The “Their Voice” forum was only one of the platforms selected by them. Quite a few. Once someone shows interest in “ghost cards”, they will investigate this person and contact them after they are determined to be a “safe” customer.

The organization has a code name internationally called “Cannibals.” Hong Xinzhang said that the people who trained them to kill babies 20 years ago were called “sacreds.” In fact, all members of this organization called themselves “sacreds.” They domesticated a group of poor and inexperienced villagers and turned them into tools for killing people, that is, “master craftsmen”, and the “master craftsmen” domesticated the people in the target villages and towns. A little money and food can become bait, and people who “take the bait” one after another hand over unanticipated baby girls in exchange for “rich” rewards.

This is actually different from the “ghost card” of Qiuxu Village in the early days.

There are one or two. Taking Sulin Town as an example, these people who have tasted the sweetness gradually turned childbirth into a “job.” Twenty years later, it has developed to the point witnessed by the police.

The first to be swept away by the special operations team was the evil gang “Yunkou” entrenched in four northern cities including Xiaxi City. They are the domestic umbrella of “Cannibal Shark” and are responsible for monitoring the villages and towns that produce “ghost cards”. Protect the “master craftsman”, collect fees paid by customers, and sometimes actively seek out customers.

It can be said that they are a community of interests of “cannibals”.

Qian Min, the boss of “Yun Kou”, is a woman, 48 years old. If she only looks at her appearance, she is undoubtedly a beauty. Even if she is nearly 50 years old, her first impression is still “brilliant.”

But what was placed under her beautiful skin was a scorpion heart.

According to Qian Min’s confession, in the more than 20 years of cooperation with the “Cannibal”, her men have killed unannounced reporters and ambitious police officers. The bodies of these people were either decomposed or burned. The traces of existence were wiped out completely. At the same time, Qian Min also confessed to some local officials who provided her with “asylum”.

Anti-triad and anti-corruption at the grassroots level is not something that Mingshu can take care of. Before returning to Dongye City, Mingshu took out Lin Zhongguo’s photo and asked, “Do you still have an impression of this person?”
