endless tricks

In the [-]-square-meter living room, there are sofas, tables, water dispensers and refrigerators, and a foldable dining table leans against the wall.The space is not big, and the furniture placed is very large, so it looks very crowded.Today, the ground covered with light brown floor paper is stained red with a large amount of blood, and the wall seems to have been splashed with a large bucket of blood, and a strong smell of blood hits the face.

A warning strip was drawn at the door, and people were blocked from the stairs to the door. Someone stood on the stairs and looked down. After taking a look, he couldn't help but leave, chanting 'cruel'.When Yang Yuanyi and Wei Yanqing rushed over, the corpse had already been removed.

Team Leader Lai: "Are you here? Xiaobai, show them the photos."

Yang Yuanyi took Zhang Xiaobai's photos, all of which were murdered pregnant women taken at the scene just now.The face of the pregnant woman was terrified and contorted, her eyes were gouged out, and her abdomen was cut open.The baby in the stomach was taken out and dropped on the floor, and then trampled into meatloaf.At that time, the umbilical cord between mother and child was still connected and not disconnected.

Zhang Xiaobai said: "There is a male fetus in the pregnant woman's womb. We found her pregnancy test report and found that it has been seven months, and the male fetus is defective. The murdered pregnant woman had three pregnancies and all miscarried. If she had another miscarriage They may not be able to conceive again. So even if the baby was found to be deformed, the couple decided to give birth."

It's a pity that because of this, he was targeted by that 'deformed' monster.

Yang Yuanyi: "Where is the pregnant woman's husband?"

Zhang Xiaobai: "At the door, he is currently emotionally unstable. He is a night bus driver. When he came back at four o'clock in the morning, he saw his wife and child died tragically in front of him. I can't tell anything from him, but it must be the result of strange news. You see, these are the footprints left at the scene."

She led the two of them to look at the preserved footprints in the room. There are three most complete preserved footprints: on the sofa where they stood, on the ceiling and on the balcony beams.

"There are two footprints on the sofa. This is where he landed. The footprint on the ceiling is stained with blood. There is only one footprint, which is the same as the one on the balcony. It means that it only took two steps from the living room to the balcony, and the one who killed the pregnant woman The footprints at that time were destroyed, including trampling the baby to death, and the footprints were too messy to recognize."

As soon as Yang Yuan walked over to have a look, he saw that the footprint was twice as big as that of an adult man, and he murmured, "Is this strange one very tall?"

Zhang Xiaobai: "The height of a normal adult man."

"Well—" Yang Yuanyi also remembered the records of the reasoning agency: "That is to say, the feet are deformed."

Wei Yanqing took a few glances and said to Yang Yuanyi with a sleepy expression, "I'll go out first."

Yang Yuan raised his head: "Huh? Good." Then he asked Zhang Xiaobai: "Have you investigated that deformed animal and haven't had a formal face-to-face with it yet?"

Mentioning this, Zhang Xiaobai felt discouraged: "This thing is really cunning and elusive. No matter how well-defended a place is, it can break in and kill people, and then run away without a trace. We tried to set up a trap, but we couldn't I don’t know that the strange smell is very smart and never fall into the trap. We even sent a lot of police force to search the sewers of the whole city, but we have seen a few pigs, but not the strange smell. Until now, except for 20 Based on the records left years ago, we don’t even know what the other party looks like now, and we didn’t leave a more accurate description of his appearance except his body shape.”

Yang Yuanyi: "It should not change. It has been silent for 20 years, and the urban legends of that year have long been forgotten. It is really cruel to be able to live until now and continue to do mischief." After a pause, he continued: "It was in the The north is causing trouble...why did you come to the southern city?"

Team leader Lai came over and signaled Zhang Xiaobai to investigate with Luo Hongsheng, and then answered Yang Yuanyi's question: "The horror and strange news will never be easily moved away from the original active place except for the reason of life-threatening. It was driven away by the United Nations and disappeared. For nearly 20 years, it is estimated that they dare not return to the north."

Yang Yuanyi: "Is that so... Does Team Leader Lai know the reason for the birth of the 'deformation' rumor? The first legend that spread was that it killed pregnant women, but what is the reason for its birth?"

Team Leader Lai was stunned for a moment, and asked in doubt: "Is there no record in the reasoning agency?"

Yang Yuan shook his head: "No."

Team Leader Lai: "Then I don't know. Twenty years ago, I was still a little unknown. The owner of the museum handled this case. If he didn't investigate clearly, then other people would not know about it." Yes. And it happened more than 20 years ago, and it is very difficult to investigate clearly. However, according to my knowledge of the owner of the museum, he will definitely investigate clearly. Maybe it is in other files, and you have not seen it. "

Yang Yuan nodded to show that he understood.

Wei Yanqing stood at the door and called him: "Yuan Yuan, come out."

As soon as Yang Yuan handed the photo to Team Leader Lai, he said something in a low voice, "Did you find anything?"

Wei Yanqing raised his finger and pointed to the balcony, Yang Yuanyi looked in the direction he pointed and found the hotel opposite.The living room and the balcony are directly connected together, facing the door, you can see the opposite hotel at a glance.The place where they stayed was the hotel. When the pregnant woman was killed last night, they happened to be dealing with the strange news about the female corpse in the water tower on the top of the building, but they didn't notice the situation here at all.

Yang Yuanyi felt annoyed that he couldn't be rescued in time when it happened in such a close place, so he couldn't help but feel guilty.The next moment, the palm of his hand fell into the warm palm, and then he heard Wei Yanqing's comforting words: "I didn't realize it either, it's normal that you didn't realize it."

Even Wei Yanqing didn't notice it, so could it be that the strange news is really powerful?Yang Yuan frowned, and couldn't help but blurt out the question.

Wei Yanqing: "How powerful can a rumor that no one cares about for 20 years be? It's nothing more than that there are other settings that I don't know." hotel, but a hospital not far from the hotel.”

"Hospital?" Yang Yuan was puzzled.

Wei Yanqing: "How do you think Weiwen can guarantee that all the pregnant women with deformed babies he killed are all pregnant women? He is sure to be foolproof, and B-ultrasound is not even accurate."

Yang Yuan understood.

Wei Yanqing squeezed Yang Yuanyi's hand and put it in his palm to play with. "Although the concept of B-ultrasound was not so popular 20 years ago, they would still go to the hospital for examination after seven or eight months. The 'deformity' anecdotes can accurately find them every time, and it is impossible that they have nothing to do with the hospital."

This is of course not about the collusion between the hospital and the rumors, but—"It's hidden in the hospital!"

There are many people in the hospital, and there are not many places to hide people, but if they are well hidden, it will become the best hiding place.Yang Yuanyi: "Let's go to the hospital and ask Wang Xiaohong to investigate the source of the strange news back then."

The Citong County People's Hospital next to the hotel has been established for more than [-] years, and nearby residents love to run here for serious and minor illnesses, so there is a lot of traffic during working hours during the day.The nine-story building in the middle is the inpatient department, and the building on the right is the outpatient department. Follow the signs to the obstetrics and gynecology department.The two stopped in the obstetrics and gynecology corridor, surrounded by strange gazes from women.

No matter how calm he was, Yang Yuanyi couldn't help but want to cover his face.If there are women accompanying them, it can be said that they are accompanying them. What's the matter with two big men? !

Compared to Yang Yuanyi's uneasiness, Wei Yanqing seemed extraordinarily calm, staring at the door where the B-ultrasound was hung, and then glanced at the round belly of the pregnant woman who came for examination.After pondering for a moment, he whispered in Yang Yuanyi's ear, "If you are lying on the bed with a big belly—"

Before he finished speaking, Yang Yuanyi pinched the soft flesh on his waist and asked expressionlessly, "What did you say?"

Wei Yanqing endured the consequences of speaking rudely, and said firmly: "Where do you think the 'deformed' will hide in order to get the B-ultrasound data?"

Yang Yuanyi said coolly: "Don't think any nonsense."

Wei Yanqing: "A momentary evil thought."

Yang Yuan pinched harder: "Where did you learn it?"

Wei Yanqing quickly took his hand, holding it tightly and not letting go: "The link Wang Xiaohong pushed to me." There is no burden to push the pot. "Maybe he sent the wrong message, we are also very embarrassed here, let's go out first." After speaking, he pulled Yang Yuan out.

It was still warm in the hospital, and it was cold and windy when we walked out, but the popularity was so high that we couldn't find a place to hide.Yang Yuanyi: "Will it be hidden in the morgue?"

Wei Yanqing: "Every corpse in the mortuary has a number, and it is usually claimed by someone, unless it is a corpse that has not been claimed for a long time. If it is pretended to be a corpse and hidden in the morgue, it is possible to come out at night to act. The only problem is Strange news, it may be a deformity."

"If it's a deformed body and it's an unclaimed corpse, the hospital should have a record. It's better to go directly to the morgue." Yang Yuanyi called Team Leader Lai as he said this. After all, there is no relevant document. If you rashly go to the hospital and tell the hospital that you want to enter the morgue, you will most likely be kicked out.

Team leader Lai responded readily and quickly resolved the matter. After a while, someone came to lead the two to the morgue.This man is a middle-aged man who has guarded the morgue for nearly 20 years, from apprentice to master retirement, until he is about to retire.He led the way ahead, turning around from time to time to secretly look at Yang Yuan and the others.

As soon as Yang Yuan caught his peek, he showed him a friendly smile.The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then he returned an embarrassed smile, and took the initiative to explain: "There are no new corpses in there recently, I wonder which one you are here to get."

Yang Yuanyi: "We are looking for a corpse that has been placed for more than ten years. We don't know where he is, so we can only look for it in the morgues of hospitals."

The man was surprised and said: "It's hard to find... Hey - put it for 20 years?" He shook his head and said: "Maybe I can't find it, no hospital is willing to keep unclaimed corpses for more than 20 years. A seat in the mortuary costs tens of thousands a year, and in 20 years... that would be almost a million, it is impossible, you can't find it."

Yang Yuanyi: "You have to try. Doesn't this hospital have unclaimed corpses that have been stored for a long time?"

The middle-aged man said: "There must be. Any hospital has it. There is no way. The law stipulates that these corpses cannot be discarded and no one comes to claim them. They can only admit their death."

Yang Yuanyi: "How long did the longest one last?"

Middle-aged man: "It's been seven years, it's been a long time. It's a female corpse. What? What are you looking for? A female corpse?"

Yang Yuanyi: "Take us to have a look, the unclaimed corpses that have been stored for a long time."

The middle-aged man glanced at the two of them back and said nothing against them.They have gone to two floors underground. There is no elevator, so they have to take the stairs.The morgue is on the third floor underground, and it gets colder as you go down, because the refrigeration equipment is turned on all year round.The light was pale, and the shadows of the three of them were stretched very long.The corridor was silent, only the footsteps of two people.

The middle-aged man was startled. There were clearly three people, but why were there only two footsteps?He was startled, and looked back secretly again, only to be relieved when he found that the three people had shadows, maybe some of them walked lightly.No sound is normal.

Wei Yanqing suddenly raised his head and looked at the ventilation duct on the ceiling. The duct was pitch black, and he couldn't see what was going on inside at all from below.But if the position is reversed, hiding in the ventilation duct can easily see the people underneath without being discovered.

"How did that female corpse that was left for seven years die?" Wei Yanqing looked away and asked the middle-aged man quietly.

The middle-aged man didn't react at first: "Are you asking me?"

"Ah."

"Difficult labor."

Yang Yuanyi: "A pregnant woman? Didn't your family accompany you during the delivery?"

Middle-aged man: "Not really. I heard that she fell down suddenly on the side of the road and was about to give birth. Kind passers-by hurriedly sent her to the maternity hospital, and she died of dystocia during childbirth. There was nothing on her to prove her identity. The family could not be notified, so she was placed in the hospital morgue, and it took a long time before she was transferred to this hospital morgue."

Yang Yuanyi: "Didn't she give birth in this hospital?"

Middle-aged man: "No. It was originally in a private obstetrical hospital, but it was thrown here after getting some connections. It's quite pitiful to say the least, a hole was cut open in the abdomen, and no one sewed it up after death. Wait until you want to sort it out. When it came to the remains, I found that there was nowhere to start, and later, I was grateful to be able to dispose of her, who else would sort out her remains?"

While speaking, he had already reached the morgue, he opened the door of the morgue and pushed it open, a gust of cold air rushed towards his face.There were dozens of corpses on display in the morgue, and the middle-aged man took them for granted. He took them to the innermost mortuary without stopping, pulled the corpses out, and laid them flat on the table.

While opening the body bag, he said: "It's a miserable death, and it's still bleak after death."

The body bag was pulled open, revealing the female body covered with icicles.Yang Yuan's eyes fell on her dissected abdomen, the placenta was left hastily left untreated, the umbilical cord was cut, but it was the baby's end.The female corpse was about 33 or [-] years old, and her face seemed to be in pain.

"Is this considered an advanced maternal age? How come there are no family members? Can't find it?"

Middle-aged man: "I left a file at the police station, but it's useless. I heard that even now I'm not sure of my identity."

As soon as Yang Yuan stretched out his hand to grab a section of the body bag, the morgue suddenly exploded with a loud bang.The middle-aged man was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "What?!"

Looking around, there is nothing.The middle-aged man rubbed his arms: "It's really evil."

Wei Yanqing glanced at the ventilation duct on the ceiling again, and Yang Yuan asked as soon as he noticed it, "What did you find?"

Wei Yanqing patted him comfortingly: "There are some things that prevent us from touching this corpse."

Yang Yuan fell into deep thought, and asked the middle-aged man after a while: "The female corpse is difficult to deliver, what about the baby?"

"This..." The middle-aged man was speechless, and he didn't know the answer: "Maybe he died."

Yang Yuanyi: "It doesn't make sense not to put them together if they die."

Middle-aged man: "Maybe it was stolen and made into a specimen. Have you finished reading it? It's very cloudy here, and it's not good to stay for a long time."

Yang Yuanyi: "There are no other corpses?"

The middle-aged man took them to look through all the corpses that had been stored for more than a year, but they couldn't find any traces of abnormalities.They couldn't stay in the morgue for too long, so they had no choice but to leave.

When the middle-aged man walked up to the second basement floor, he suddenly said, "Speaking of which, there seems to be a terrible rumor about the seven-year-old female corpse just now."

Yang Yuan stopped, turned around and asked, "What rumor?"

The middle-aged man hesitated: "I'm not sure if it's true or not. After all, it didn't happen in our hospital... I heard that she was sent to the four-person maternity hospital to give birth. The baby, it was, it was a strange baby... It was deformed and terrifying, and the midwifery nurse screamed at that time. The voice was very loud and terrified, and all the patients in the hospital that night knew about the trouble. Soon there will be related People from the department came over and didn't know how to deal with it. Anyway, the woman died and the strange baby disappeared. The doctors and nurses who delivered the delivery all left their jobs—huh? Have you seen the Hong Kong movie "Big Headed Baby"? It seems to be The real version of the 'big-headed baby', but I heard that the baby is more terrifying."

— bang!Bang!

A loud noise came from above the head, and the pale lights in the entire corridor flickered on and off instantly, which was very strange.The middle-aged man was terrified, put his palms together and murmured: "If there is anything strange, there is no blame, there is nothing strange."

While chanting, he ran out briskly, never caring about Yang Yuanyi and Wei Yanqing.And Yang Yuanyi followed the loud noise and saw the ventilation ducts on the ceiling: "Brother Wei, there are many ventilation ducts on each floor of the hospital, right?"

Wei Yanqing smiled lightly: "Well, including the B-ultrasound doctor's office."

Therefore, as long as the silent monitoring is hidden inside, it is possible to know which woman is pregnant with a deformed child but has not been aborted.If you want to give birth, you will be found and killed.

Yang Yuanyi: "It seems to be angry, because we mentioned the female corpse that has been parked inside for seven years - what does it have to do with that strange baby?" He had some guesses, but couldn't believe it.

Wei Yanqing hugged his shoulders, and said while walking outside, "Some strange news will combine with human beings."

Yang Yuan's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it: "The 'deformation' rumor is a horror story, and it has no human emotions."

"If it is transformed from a human to a strange news, then it is not too strange to be combined with a human."

"What do you mean?" Can human beings be transformed into strange news?Isn't the strange news formed by the alienation of terror?

"It's just a transformation of the body. If he is recognized as an ugly monster because of his deformity at the beginning, gradually, the whole person will become a monster from body to heart. When he tastes blood and completely abandons his cognition as a human, he will Being alienated into strange news. In the final analysis, it is also because of 'horror'."

Isn't it true that some people are so handsome that they can treat the same kind as pigs and sheep, butcher, cook and eat them as if nothing happened?It cannot be said that they are human beings, but a group of monsters in human skin.A group of alienated monsters are no longer human.When they were immersed in blood and killing, not only were they alienated, but others also regarded them as terrifying monsters.

At this point, they were completely alienated into monsters.

Wei Yanqing: "I think Wang Xiaohong should have collected all the information. We can find it when we go out and drink tea."

Yang Yuanyi: "Let him go now?"

Wei Yanqing: "I can't catch it anyway."

Yang Yuanyi pondered for a moment: "You are right."

Wei Yanqing: "My dear Yuanyuan, let's go on a date first."

Yang Yuanyi: "Can you work hard?"

Wei Yanqing: "No."

With the sound getting smaller and smaller, they drifted away.Under the pale light, in the dark ventilation duct, a pair of ferocious eyes suddenly appeared, as well as the sound of angry panting.

No matter how fierce the winter sun is, it has no power at all. As soon as Yang Yuan wrapped his coat tightly, Wei Yanqing put his left hand into his own pocket without any other movements.

Seeing that Yang Yuan didn't leave, Wei Yanqing said, "Don't you like it? Then put it in your pocket." Anyway, if you don't let go, there's no need to talk about letting go, and you won't discuss it.

The pocket of the other party's coat was still very warm, at least his cold hands soon warmed up, making Yang Yuan reluctant to shrink back, so he turned his face away and pretended not to see it.Wei Yanqing smiled, clasped his hands tightly and hid them in his pockets: "Wherever you go, lead Yuanyuan to prevent Yuanyuan from disappearing, okay?"

Yang Yuanyi muttered: "Childish."

Wei Yanqing: "Let's go, I have taken a fancy to a milk tea shop before I came here, let's go now."

Yang Yuanyi: "We are here to deal with business - have you found a way to catch that strange news?"

Wei Yanqing: "It's not difficult to catch it, but we have to lure it out and trap it. There are ways, but don't rush it now. Let's go on a date first, and we agreed when we received the order. Don't forget the date while solving the case."

The so-called milk tea shop is actually a famous couple's shop nearby. There are almost two pairs of them inside, and even the menu has a pink name like 'Love Sweetheart'.When the two opened the door and went in, the waiter at the door got stuck in his throat halfway through the welcome call.

As soon as Yang Yuan supported his forehead and didn't want to go in, Wei Yanqing found a quiet place in the corner and dragged him over, took the menu along the way and asked, "What would you like to drink?"

Yang Yuan shook his head: "Just juice."

Wei Yanqing: "Then let's have a glass of big juice for couples to share."

Yang Yuanyi: "...can you not get tired of being crooked?"

Wei Yanqing threw the menu on the table and asked seriously: "Yuan Yuan, do you really want to draw a line with me?"

Yang Yuanyi: Sometimes I think about it.

Wei Yanqing: "Or, you didn't forgive me?"

Yang Yuan raised his hand to greet the waiter: "Have a glass of juice shared by couples, two flavors." The waiter has high professionalism, and wrote it down without showing a surprised expression.After ordering, Yang Yuanyi: "Is that all right?"

Wei Yanqing supported her chin with one hand, and smiled lightly: "Yuan Yuan is the most obedient."
