ALL NOVEL Chapter 146
Chapter 146 Crazy Wolf (30)
Letter to the province, Maoyangzhai.
If anything happened in the real werewolf killings, there should be clues here.
But when he arrived at Maoyang Village, Xu Chun discovered that Huang Yan and Zhu Linglong’s filming location was actually a deserted village. Five years ago, Maoyangzhai planned a new site. After the building was built, the residents moved there as a whole. The distance between Xinzhai and Jiuzhai is about 20 kilometers. Although it is not too far, the time in Jiuzhai seems to be stagnant. No one has set foot on its land except for the occasional “allies”.
“There has never been an accident in our stockade.” The village cadre Lao Chen made a cup of tea for Xu Chun with a local plant. “Don’t say three years ago, it was ten years ago. We are also very safe here.”
People in remote villages don’t pay much attention to it. The cups are full of dirt, and the smell of tea is particularly pungent, and it smells like poison.
Xu Chun couldn’t stand the smell and didn’t drink it. “About how many out-of-towners come to your place for ‘expedition’ every year?”
Old Chen “hehe” smiled, “We don’t have much scenery here. Young people who have ambitions have gone out to work. Those who are left behind are either old people or children. How can foreigners come to our place.”
“Do you think about it again.” Xu Chun said: “Three years ago in early October, was there a group of young people who stayed in Jiuzhai for a while?”
“That’s what you said…” The wrinkles on Old Chen’s face closed, “I seem to be a little impressed. They came to buy water and food.”
“What else can you think of?”
“Um… nothing special. They left after a few days. The old village is not good in feng shui, old dead, after the relocation, we won’t go to the old village. I don’t know what they are doing there. .”
Xu Chun warned: “What does’bad feng shui, old dead man’ mean?”
“It’s not suitable for people to live there, otherwise we are living well, why should we relocate?” Old Chen said and stopped, “I can’t tell you outsiders.”
Xu Chun handed over a pack of cigarettes and smiled, “It’s okay, it’s okay.”
There was no good smoke in the remote countryside. Old Chen glanced around and looked out the door subconsciously. Seeing that no one was passing by, he quickly put the cigarette away, “A woman is making trouble.”
According to Lao Chen, since more than 30 years ago, young people in the stockade were not willing to work in their hometowns. As soon as the young people left, almost no women came to marry. Later one year during the Spring Festival, the Zhang family’s boy brought back a pregnant girl. He said that he met from a part-time job in a big city. When he came back, he met his parents and confinement. The girl’s belly was already very big, at most. It will be produced in two months.
After the beginning of spring, the girl gave birth to a healthy baby boy, and the whole village was happy.
This was originally a happy event, but when the baby boy was three months old, the happy event became a disaster.
The Zhang family’s mother-in-law is careless and caressing about her grandson, but she went to the neighbor’s house to play mahjong when she was called. When she heard her daughter-in-law crying, she remembered that she had left her grandson in the yard.
Where is the grandson in the yard, only a pool of blood is left on the ground.
The police came to investigate and determined that the baby was taken away by the wolf.
“There are wolves in Maoyang Village?” This was beyond Xu Chun’s expectation.
“Now it’s gone.” Old Chen continued: “All the people in the stockade went to the mountains to find only a few broken bones. The daughter-in-law went crazy and ran away after killing Zhang’s family. No one has been found so far.”
Xu Chun was shocked in his heart.
There were actually many similar cases in the past, with human and physical evidence, but they just couldn’t be solved. First, there were limited tracking methods and there were too many places where the murderer could hide. Second, the murderer might have died long ago.
“The strange thing is that after this incident, as long as there are children born in the stockade, they always die, or they are unhealthy.” Old Chen said: “We have seen an expert and said that the feng shui here has been ruined. It’s the woman who is doing the blame.”
Xu Chun said: “So you moved here as a whole?”
Old Chen nodded, “Also, since moving to Xinzhai, the children in every household are healthy. Even if they are sick, they are normal illnesses. Just see a doctor.”
Xu Chun is a staunch materialist. He doesn’t believe in feng shui, let alone women’s evil thoughts. There must be a scientific explanation for the changes in the health of children in Maoyang Village.
But what Old Chen said answered one of his previous questions-why did those werewolf killing fans choose this stockade.
At the same time, Zhou Yuan found information about Maoyang Village on a folk-related website. “There are wolves” and “Wolves eat children” have been rendered amazingly on the Internet. Some people even say that there are really werewolves in Maoyang Village.
Huang Yan herself is a folklore lover, and she probably knew Maoyang Village a long time ago. When she proposed to go to Maoyang Village, fans of werewolf killing must agree.
“The most serious thing that happened here is that one. It really didn’t happen three years ago.” Old Chen said, “You, if you don’t believe it, go to Jiuzhai by yourself.”
Xu Chun has been to Jiuzhai, and Xiao Man is still observing around in Jiuzhai, and indeed he has not found any suspicious traces.
Is it true that as Old Chen said, nothing happened three years ago?
What is the cause of this series of cases now?
·
Renxin Hospital, Dongye City.
“You are right, they have been killed.” Ming Shu said: “You are the only game participant mentioned by Zhu Linglong, so I will find you.”
Hu Ying’s previous reaction has not been salty nor light, and at this time some nervousness finally appeared on his face.
After a while, he said: “Someone wants to kill all the participants in that game?”
Ming Shu didn’t answer, staring at Hu Ying’s eyes.
Hu Ying supported her forehead troubledly, and said after a moment: “Maybe it doesn’t include me.”
“Because you left early?” Ming Shu said, “You think the murderer was one of the participants, and what happened between them after you left Maoyang Village early?”
Fang Yuanhang said: “But leaving early is just your unilateral statement.”
Hu Ying frowned and looked at Fang Yuanhang, “Are you doubting me?”
Fang Yuanhang said: “Routine inquiry, please understand.”
The gentle music in the cafe suddenly fluctuated, and Hu Ying slightly lowered his head, folded his hands, and placed it on his right knee.
His manners look very elegant, not as if he is facing a criminal policeman, but he is accepting a deliberate and in-depth interview.
“Just now you said that I was the only game participant mentioned by Linglong Zhu.” Hu Ying looked up at Ming Shu, “This means that you don’t know who else participated in the game?”
Ming Shu said: “I remember you said that you don’t know any of them.”
“But I took a picture.” Huying said, “I don’t know if this is an important clue.”
“Do you have a photo?” Fang Yuanhang was quite surprised, “Don’t you have a rule that does not allow you to take pictures?”
Even a girl like Zhu Linglong who is keen on taking pictures has not taken pictures of anyone.
Huying’s expression was a bit embarrassing, as if it was something that shouldn’t be and has no quality. “I did violate the rules, but I’m different from them. I’m an artist. I didn’t think much about it when I signed up for it, but On the day of departure, I was already hesitating-should I go, would I be in danger, are there anyone with bad intentions? I couldn’t believe these strangers, so before getting on the bus, I photographed them Send my friend’s photo to my friend and tell him that if I lose contact, or if something happens, I’ll immediately contact the company and call the police.”
Ming Shu asked immediately: “Is the photo still on your phone now?”
Huying nodded, “I uploaded it to the cloud storage.”
Soon, twenty or so photos taken on October 2 three years ago were transferred to Fang Yuanhang’s tablet. All 11 game participants were among them. All women had only one photo, while men had two to three photos. Zhang, it can be seen that Huying is less alert to women, and the focus is on men.
Huang Yan, Li Zhaofeng, and Zhu Linglong are all among them. Zhu Linglong’s appearance is quite different from the present. Her clothes and makeup are all cute lines, while Huang Yan’s hair was long and straight at that time, and she looked clean. Neat, Li Zhaofeng has not changed much from now.
“I don’t know if this can clear my suspicion?” Huying said: “Although I was also a participant in the game three years ago, I really don’t know what happened afterwards. You can ask if the photo is still alive. Anyone, am I leaving soon after the game starts.”
Fang Yuanhang glanced at Ming Shu.
Ming Shu said: “Thank you for the clues. They will play a very critical role in the investigation.”
Hu Ying shook his head, “I need a promise.”
“I know what promises you want.” Ming Shu said: “But I can’t make any guarantees to you right now. I will still come to you if there is a need. From now on, all your actions will also be under the police’s control. Monitoring.”
Hu Ying said with a dilemma, “This will bring a lot of burden to my work.”
“By the way, talking about work.” Ming Shu suddenly changed the subject, “I have a question and want to get an answer from you.”
Hu Ying was stunned, his shoulders seemed to be violently closed.
“What question?”
“As far as I know, after an artist has suddenly become popular, he usually strikes the iron while it is hot and does his best to manage himself. But you don’t seem to be interested in it?
Hu Ying’s complexion froze.
“You also know that before coming to Renxin Hospital, I went to Fangchi Entertainment.” Ming Shu continued: “Your agent, Man Lin, actually had to make a call before he knew where and what you were doing. You said that our investigations will burden your work, but in my opinion, you don’t seem to be working much lately.”
The lake shadow discerned and opened his sight.
Although this action was short, it was enough to show that he was avoiding looking at Ming Shu.
In the previous questioning, he did not respond like this.
“My sister is sick and her condition is very serious.” Hu Ying’s brows and eyes were slightly sad. “She is the most important person in my life. I don’t know how long she can last, but I hope to be with her more.”
For ordinary people, there is no doubt that this is a normal and touching explanation, but when it comes to Huying, there always seems to be a sense of error.
In contact with Man Lin not long ago, Ming Shu has discovered that Man Lin is also very dissatisfied with Huying’s “negative work”.
Huying refused to obey the agent’s arrangement, really just because he wanted to accompany the sick sister?
There are many doubts, but the most important thing now is to lock the game participants in the photo.

Criminal Investigation Bureau, Crime Squad.
“This is not without gain.” Xiao Yuan is still talking to Xu Chun, “If there really were no suspicious incidents in Maoyang Village three years ago, then one motive of the murderer could be ruled out.”
I don’t know what else was said over there, Xiao Yuan smiled, “It is impossible for the investigation to avoid a detour, don’t care too much.”
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yuan took the photo from Ming Shu.
The technical reconnaissance team was still searching for the photos, and no results were available for a while.
“Da Xu is so stubborn, there are times when he needs to be comforted by the leader?” Ming Shu said: “But why doesn’t he call me, the direct leader?”
“He just casually mentioned that Maoyang Village might have ran away in vain.” Xiao Yuan said, “I sent him and Xiao Man over. Whom would he report to me if he didn’t report the situation there?”
Ming Shu looked at Xiao Yuan.
Xiao Yuan said, “Huh?”
Ming Shu said, “Xiao Ju, why don’t you say’what are you looking at’?”
Xiao Yuan said: “Then you just said,’Look at you?’
Ming Shu laughed, and put his hands around Xiao Yu’an’s neck, “Forget it, or ‘huh?’ This word and tone suit you.”
Xiao Yuan also laughed, patted Mingshu’s back, and said warmly, “It’s been a lot of work these days.”
He couldn’t know why Ming Shu was joking suddenly.
This guy is tired and under too much pressure, and wants to keep him warm.
Ming Shu slid his hands down, surrounded Xiao Yuan’s waist, and slowly buried his face on Xiao Yuan’s shoulders, without moving for a long time.
Xiao Yuan let him go and gently followed his back.
“I’ll take a rest.” Ming Shu muttered: “My mind is a little bit awkward. I’ll get better soon.”
There was a heartache in Xiao Yuan’s eyes.
As the leader of the serious crime team in a big city, Mingshu must bear all these pressures. It is Mingshu’s responsibility to detect the homicide as soon as possible.
Mingshu’s background can actually lead to a more relaxed life, but Mingshu chose such a path with him.
Put on a police uniform and become a criminal policeman, and the responsibility is with the honor.
Many years ago, when Mingshu decided to follow in his footsteps, he asked Mingshu a word-do you know the responsibility of the criminal police?
Ming Shu solemnly told him-I don’t know for the time being, but I will always look at you, what kind of criminal police you are, what kind of criminal police I will become.
He was admitted to the Public Security University at the age of 18, and now 28 years old. After ten years, Ming Shu answered his questions with actions.
There was a movement from his shoulder, and Ming Shu took a deep breath.
“Alright?” Xiao Yuan asked.
“Yeah.” Ming Shu stood up, his cheeks flushed slightly from the snuggle just now.
The two of them looked at each other in silence for a moment, and then they all smiled.
“I only do this in front of you.” Ming Shu said: “In front of them, especially in front of Fang Yuanhang, I am still a man of God.”
Xiao Yuan said: “I don’t agree.”
Ming Shu’s eyes raised, “Am I not a male **** in front of them?”
“I mean.” Xiao Yuan brought the people over, “You are also a male **** with me.”
Ming Shu’s eyes were bright and clear, and after a long time of aftertaste, he emerged from Xiao Yu’an’s arms and said loudly: “Analyze the case and analyze the case. Let the male look aside first!”
Xiao Yuan said: “I have sent someone to investigate the background of Huying. According to the media, he was abandoned by his parents when he was a child. A worker couple adopted him and raised him. At the same time, the worker couple also had a frail and sickly couple. Huying’s daughter. Huying is very filial, and most of the money he makes after becoming an artist is used to treat her sister’s illness. This sounds like a very touching story, but there are some logical loopholes.”
Ming Shu nodded, “For example, the worker couple is not wealthy, and there is a daughter who needs medical treatment and medicine at any time. Why would they adopt an unrelated orphan?”
Xiao Yuan said: “The real situation is that Huying is the nephew of his adoptive parents. His parents left him illegally, and there is no news so far. His adoptive parents had no choice but to adopt him. The relationship between their families is not the same. The brokerage company advertises so harmoniously, but Huying and his sister Hu Yao are really in love with each other.”
“The charges of Renxin Hospital cannot be borne by ordinary people. Huying allows Hu Yao to live there. It can be seen that he is very concerned about this sister.” Ming Shu thought for a while, “Is there any inside story about Huying’s popularity?”
“He’s Fengtu Group may be related to his popularity.” Xiao Yuan said: “Have you heard of the name’He Yang’?”
Ming Shu said: “I have only heard of He Guozhou and He Zhaochuan.”
“He Guozhou and He Zhaochuan are the current heads of the He family.” Xiao Yu Anshu: “The He family has a big business. It is not surprising that you have never heard of He Yang. This is the leader of the new generation of He family. He is in his thirties. He Guozhou His youngest son.”
Whenever a celebrity has a relationship with a wealthy family, it is mostly emotional. Ming Shu understood immediately, “Hu Ying was kept by He Yang?”
“I can’t be sure if it is nurturing, but before and after he became popular, he did have a close relationship with He Yang.” Xiao Yuan said: “This can explain why Huying can get the resources of that TV series.”
Ming Shu frowned, moved a chair and sat down, and said in a low voice, “I can also explain why Huying doesn’t follow the instructions of the economic company…”
Xiao Yuan said: “Do you have an idea?”
“Yeah.” Ming Shu said: “Huying rejected the agent’s hype request and worked passively on the grounds of needing to accompany and take care of his family. He also told his agent that he had no time to pick up a new drama recently. This is too unreasonable. , Think about it, how can an actor who has survived for a few years and finally got his head, how can he not sprint after his popularity? The victims were all participants in the game three years ago. Isn’t it impossible that Huying was the murderer? I doubt that he.”
After a few seconds, Ming Shu said again: “But if he already has a backer and is such a hard backer as He’s, then he really doesn’t have to do what his agent said. He, what is He?”
Xiao Yuan said: “He Yang.”
“Yes, He Yang.” Ming Shu said: “He Yang can easily get Huying the resources he wants.”
Xiao Yuan leaned on the table next to Ming Shu, holding his hands on his chest.
“No.” After half a minute, Ming Shu said again: “Even with this He Yang, Hu Ying still feels a little weird to me. He calmed down when he learned that three of the people who played Werewolf Killing together had been killed. Too much. And he immediately thought that the murderer was among the people who played the game, and the target was other people who participated in the game, and he was not in danger.”
“Oh?” Xiao Yuan said, “Is he so calm?”
“So I care about it.” Ming Shu said, “His reason is that he left shortly after the game started. After that, something may have happened between the remaining people, no matter what it was, he At that time, they were all excluded, so there was no danger. The reason is correct. Let me analyze it, and I will analyze it the same way.”
Xiao Yuan said: “But the problem is that he is the person involved. His most reasonable response is to feel fear and worry that he is the next target of the murderer.”
Ming Shu scratched the back of his head, “However, he is really cooperative and gives important clues. As long as the person in the photo finds one, many questions can be answered.”
Xiao Yuan put the photos on both sides of the men and women.
A total of 12 people went to Maoyangzhai three years ago, including 8 men and 4 women. Three of them have been killed.
“The murderer is a male.” Xiao Yuan said: “If he is among these people, then except for Li Zhaofeng and Hu Ying, all 6 people are suspected.”
But judging from the photos, the appearance of the remaining 6 men is very ordinary, and there is no place that makes people’s eyes shine.
Ming Shu suddenly flashed in his mind, “When Huang Yan was killed, I made a criminal profile-the murderer was a male, very attractive, at least very attractive to Huang Yan. Huang Yan wanted to’greet’ him. Upon arrival, the monitoring system that rarely closes in the store has been shut down.”
Xiao Yuan still looked at the photos, “You mean, these people don’t fit the profile. The most suitable profile is the shadow of the lake that provides us with important clues.”
Ming Shu stood up and paced quickly, “Instead of an ordinary person, why did Huang Yan turn off the surveillance? It doesn’t make sense!”
“Don’t jump to conclusions blindly.” Xiao Yuan said: “First, determine where Hu Ying was when the three murders occurred, and whether there was an alibi.”
·
Zhou Yuan’s efficiency is getting higher and higher, and the identities of the eight people in the photos have been determined one after another.
Wang Chenghan, male, 33 years old, white-collar worker, works in Nancheng District.
Wang Ben, male, 36 years old, an employee of a foreign company, has now left Dongye City.
Jiao Xu, male, 29 years old, was unemployed three years ago and is now a food delivery worker.
Lu Jinsi, male, 30 years old, primary school physical education teacher.
Cao Mi, male, 40 years old, internet writer, currently not in Dongye City.
Liu Lijia, male, 31 years old, home improvement designer.
Jiang Xin, female, 30 years old, died of illness one year ago.
Shu Xuxu, female, 28 years old, a civil servant, went to Northwest China to help the poor six months ago.
Except for the 4 people who are temporarily out of Dongye City and who have passed away, all the other 4 people have been in contact with the crime team. When asked about the werewolf killings that they took part in three years ago, none of them had any weird reactions, admitting that they had been to Maoyang Village and they had also admitted that they had played the werewolf killings.
Unlike Zhu Linglong, the four male players did not know that the person who left early was the Huying in the current fire, but they all confirmed Huying’s words-the player named “Yanhuang” is indeed because of the voting results. Dissatisfied, left on his own shortly after the game started.
“Nothing happened later.” Liu Lijia was baffled by being questioned by the police suddenly. “We stayed in Maoyang Village for less than a week, so we went back.”
Yi Fei asked: “You haven’t contacted me anymore?”
Liu Lijia was sure, “At least I didn’t.”
Yi Fei came out of the interrogation room and saw Ming Shu standing at the door.
“Scare me!” Yi Fei said.
“Come on, take a look at the data.” Ming Shu put a piece of information in front of Yi Fei.
After ten seconds, Yi Fei frowned, “This…”
“The height of the’werewolf’ photographed by the Green Phoenix Mountain is between 1.79 to 1.81 meters.” Ming Shu said, “their heights are all incompatible. And the lake shadow is exactly 1.81 meters.”
