Mysterious city

"If I guessed correctly, these two people should be husband and wife, right?"

Jiang Zhe asked. In a life-or-death situation, you still want to save the other person. Only close relatives can be so loyal until death.

The village chief nodded and said with a sad look on his face: "Oh, both of us are gone. What will we do to the little one, Doudou?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a child crying came from behind everyone.

"Dad, Mom, don't leave me alone!"

A small figure quickly ran over from a short distance away, lying on the man's body and crying loudly.

After crying for a while, he raised his head again and looked at his mother's body floating in the fish pond.

In grief, the child even wanted to jump down, but fortunately Jiang Zhe, the village chief and others stopped him.

"My child, there is still a long way to go, so you have to be strong and don't let your mind wander!"

The village chief pulled the child and said earnestly. Seeing the pained expression on his little face, the village chief couldn't help but sigh and turned his face to the side, unable to bear to look at it anymore.

Jiang Zhe, who was standing next to the child, glanced at the child and was stunned.

Isn't this child named Doudou the only one who opened the door for him and Yang Ran when they went door to door in the evening?

Jiang Zhe glanced at Yang Ran next to him and found that the girl also had a solemn face, and looked at him.

Apparently she also realized who the child was.

Doudou once said at that time that her parents were not at home, and they should have been back by that time.

It turns out that this is because they were attacked by monsters and will never be able to go home again.

However, if we look at the timeline, it should be Xiao Shui who killed Doudou's parents first and then lured Xiao Peng into the water.

This seems to be okay, otherwise if there are more than two monsters in the village, even Jiang Zhe will find it very difficult.

But Jiang Zhe couldn't understand how much hatred Xiaoshui had with these people.

As for completely destroying a whole family like this?

It was clear that the only ones who killed him were Xiaopeng and those bastards, but Xiaoshui had already killed so many people, but he still had no intention of stopping.

"Which bastard brought Doudou here?"

"This child is still so young, how can you bear to let him see such a terrifying scene!"

Li Cun turned to the middle-aged cadre who brought Doudou over and scolded him angrily.

"Yes, but Doudou is the only relative in their family. I think I should let him know a little bit."

"You're going to have to face it sooner or later anyway, so it's better to be mentally prepared in advance."

The middle-aged man defended hesitantly, lowering his head in shame, as if he also realized that he didn't think carefully enough.

But everyone knows that they are only doing it for Doudou's own good.

Looking at Doudou's little body that was crying so hard that he was about to lose his breath, everyone couldn't help but sigh at the cruelty of fate.

At such a young age, she went from being the darling of her parents to being an orphan overnight. The impact on Doudou can be imagined.

However, fate has just lifted off his cruel veil, and more difficult and miserable days are still waiting for this child.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhe's teeth chattered in anger.

Both he and Yang Ran knew that if Xiaopeng hadn't been selfish, and if he had told everyone the truth earlier, the villagers would have been a little wary.

And if they learn that there are survivors, they will have a general direction when investigating, and the investigation progress will undoubtedly be much faster.

But in the end, the selfishness of Xiaopeng's child led to one tragedy after another!

"Children, my condolences, everything will pass slowly."

Yang Ran leaned down, took Doudou into his arms, patted his poor little body and comforted him softly.

"Oh, God, what evil have we Li Villagers done? You want to punish us like this!"

The village chief raised his withered hands tremblingly, raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky and shouted sadly.

"Village Chief Li, these two people have been almost certain to be dead for some time."

"For specific matters, we still need to wait for the forensic doctor to come before we can issue a detailed report."

Zhang Nan gently patted Village Chief Li on the shoulder and lowered his voice: "I hope you can make proper arrangements when the inspection personnel enter the village later, so as not to attract too much attention."

"The more critical this moment is, the more important it is for you, as the village leader, to stabilize the overall situation and avoid causing panic among the villagers. Do you understand?"

After listening to Zhang Nan's words, Village Chief Li nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, Sheriff Zhang. I will definitely try my best to make arrangements properly and won't let others notice."

As the head of a highly respected village, how could he not know how important it is to stabilize the overall situation.

Furthermore, if what happened tonight is spread out in an exaggerated manner, it will probably have a further impact on the tourism economy, which will be harmful to Li Cun, so of course he will try his best to help Zhang Nan.

Unfortunately, the development of things has gradually exceeded his ability to control.

"Captain Zhang, you must seek justice for us. No matter whether the murderer is a human or a ghost, we must catch them as soon as possible!"

As soon as Village Chief Li finished speaking, Zhao Xin, who had been sitting around doing nothing, suddenly said: "Really, how did you know there was a murderer?"

"What if these two people drowned accidentally?"

Everyone looked at him with disdain, as if they were looking at a pig's head.

"Zhao Xin, can you use your brain? Did everyone drown accidentally?"

"Also, don't you know how deep the water in the village's fish pond is? A high school student can stand in the pond with his feet touching the ground. How can an adult drown?"

The honest and honest Li Jun wanted to give this guy with eyes above his head a slap in the face.

Anyone who has lived in the village knows that the water in the fish pond is not as deep as it seems.

The average depth of fish ponds is between one and a half to two meters, and three meters is already very deep.

This kind of water depth is not as deep as the deep water area of ​​a swimming pool. How could villagers who are well versed in water drown in a fish pond where they can touch the ground with their tiptoes?

It's almost as outrageous as drowning in a sink.

When Li Jun exposed his ignorance mercilessly, Zhao Xin snorted coldly, but still obediently shut his mouth and stopped talking.

Jiang Zhe winked at Yang Ran, and Yang Ran immediately walked up to Zhang Nan and whispered for a while, telling all the facts Xiaopeng had just told.

After witnessing this scene with her own eyes, Zhang Nan felt that the weirdness of the matter had exceeded her imagination, and she had to start thinking about whether what Jiang Zhe said before was true.

After listening to Yang Ran's words, Zhang Nan's expression instantly became dull.

Now, even if she no longer believed that monsters existed in the world, she had to rethink whether her world view was too narrow.
