The tattooed man took off the black cloth covering Yang Hongxiu's eyes. When he saw the light, Yang Hongxiu instinctively squinted his eyes. With triangular eyes, he looked at Yang Hongxiu from the rearview mirror. I have to say that this little boy is really good-looking.

"Four-eyed Chen's vision is really good. This is indeed a good product." Triangular eyes couldn't help but look at Yang Hongxiu a few more times. The tattooed man was not interested in Yang Hongxiu, so he grabbed Yang Hongxiu's schoolbag and put the contents inside. They took them all out, threw them in the car, and rudely returned the schoolbag to Yang Hongxiu.

"Fill this book bag, and take as much as you can, do you know?"

Yang Hongxiu nodded obediently: "Understood, the two elder brothers don't worry."

The car quickly drove into the rest area. The facilities here are very simple. There is only a small shop and a water station for hot water. The sky has begun to darken, and it will soon be night. There are no people in the rest area, only Two or three staff members.

Yang Hongxiu got out of the van with his schoolbag on his back. He was very calm and didn't look like he was kidnapped at all.In the small shop, only one salesperson was blowing a fan and watching TV.

After Yang Hongxiu entered the store, he first checked to see if there was surveillance in the house. This is a small shop in a small remote area with simple facilities and no surveillance system. Yang Hongxiu walked around the store and then walked to the freezer area.

"Uncle, is the milk here fresh?" Yang Hongxiu picked up a can of milk and asked as if nothing had happened.

The salesperson was concentrating on watching the TV, ignored him, and replied casually: "The goods just arrived today, July 7th, you can see the date is today."

July 7nd...

Yang Hongxiu calculated in his mind that the date they set off for Yasone Waterfall was July 7th, that is to say, three days had passed since he was kidnapped.

Yang Hongxiu walked around the store again, and chatted with the salesperson while walking around: "My father took me for an outing, but I didn't like the places he took me, uncle, you know this Is there any nice scenic spot nearby?"

The salesman got a little impatient with the little boy's question, but out of the most basic courtesy, he said casually: "This is a broken mountain area where the birds don't shit. What's the fun? If you want to fish, go to About 10 kilometers ahead, there is Shunlin Lake."

Yang Hongxiu silently remembered this place in his heart. He walked to the corner of the store, secretly stuffed instant noodles, bread, biscuits, mineral water and Coke into his small schoolbag, and quietly packed a pack of tissues and wet paper.

Yang Hongxiu caught a glimpse of several large cardboard boxes containing large barrels of mineral water outside the door. He found an excuse and dismissed the salesman: "Uncle, I want two barrels of mineral water in the cardboard box outside the door. Can you help me?" Bring it here?"

The salesman was obviously very impatient, and he cursed in a low voice, "It's so troublesome", then got up and went out to open the few cardboard boxes.Yang Hongxiu took the opportunity to pick up the mobile phone that the salesperson put on the table, and quickly dialed the number "110".

The call was connected quickly, and Yang Hongxiu stared nervously at the figure of the salesperson, hiding behind the shelf, avoiding the sight of the tattooed man and the triangular eyes, and said quickly: "My name is Yang Hongxiu, today is July 7th, I I have been kidnapped for three days, and now I am near Shunlin Lake, and they are going to take me to a place with a boat, so my life is not in danger for the time being."

After speaking, Yang Hongxiu quickly hung up the phone.After he turned off the phone, before the salesman came back, Yang Hongxiu whispered "I'm sorry" in his heart, and then put the phone in his pocket.

Back in the car, the triangular-eyed man and the tattooed man looked at the overstuffed schoolbag with great satisfaction.The car drove away from the rest area and quickly disappeared into the night.

"Hahaha, good boy, you did a good job!" Triangular eyes couldn't help but praise, the schoolbag was full of food, Yang Hongxiu even helped them get two bottles of beer, the tattooed man put the bag in the bag with a serious face He took out all his belongings and threw a box of biscuits to Yang Hongxiu as a reward.

"Thank you uncle." Yang Hongxiu replied politely, and calmly opened the biscuit bag.

The tattooed man glanced at Yang Hongxiu, and his eyes were focused on his pocket. The tattooed man's face suddenly became gloomy, and his voice was terrifying: "What's in your pocket?"

Yang Hongxiu stopped chewing and swallowed quietly.

The triangular eyes looked in the rearview mirror, and sure enough, Yang Hongxiu's clothes pockets were a little bulging.

"Take it out for me!" the tattooed man ordered viciously, Yang Hongxiu took a deep breath, took out something from his pocket, and handed it to the tattooed man.

It's a pack of cigarettes.

"I saw that my uncle's cigarettes were finished, so I stole a box. Because I was in a hurry, I didn't put it in my schoolbag."

The tattooed man's face softened, he took the cigarette in Yang Hongxiu's hand and lit one, the car was filled with smoke, the tattooed man satisfied his cigarette addiction, and became less wary of Yang Hongxiu.

"The kid is very good at it." The tattooed man muttered in a low voice, and he didn't bother to talk to him anymore.Yang Hongxiu's palms were covered with sweat, and the mobile phone was quietly stuck in his inner pocket, right behind the cigarette case.

Lanjia Garden Community is located in Beicheng District, Baichang City. This is one of the few high-end communities surrounded by high-rise buildings. There are several security booths in the community. There is a musical fountain next to the Rose Garden, and there are five or six children there. play.

It is only one street away from the green field community where Li Jia lives, and it is very close. Less than 300 meters away from these two communities is Changfa Primary School, a key experimental primary school in Baichang City.

Shen Conglan and Yuan Qiu informed the guard of their names, and the guard and the head of the household confirmed it before opening the door.Shen Conglan looked around, and couldn't help sighing: "The environment of this community is good, and it's in the school district. It seems that Zhou Xiaochao's family is quite well off."

"Zhou Xiaochao's father, Zhou Cheng, is the president of a logistics company, and his family background is really good." Yuan Qiu walked to the 13th building, rang the doorbell on the 18th floor, and soon the security lock was opened.

"Let's go." Yuan Qiu greeted Shen Conglan.

After Zhou Xiaochao recovered from his illness and was discharged from the hospital, he has been recuperating at home and did not go out. He heard from his father that his spirit was severely stimulated and he became silent. Xiaodi came to see him once, but Zhou Xiaochao didn't respond. Xiao Di just plays with his cat all the time.

The person who opened the door was Zhou Cheng, a middle-aged man just over 40 years old, with dark skin, tight lips, and a rather stern appearance.He opened the door and gave Yuan Qiu and Shen Conglan a slight nod as a greeting.He was not tall, his brows were always furrowed, and he seemed to be highly wary of Yuan Qiu and Shen Conglan.

As soon as they entered the door, a white kitten ran past them. Zhou Xiaochao chased after the kitten. When he saw Yuan Qiu and Shen Conglan, he was startled. He hugged the kitten and hid behind the sofa.

Zhou Cheng said to Zhou Xiaochao: "These two are Captain Yuan and Captain Shen from the police station."

Zhou Xiaochao didn't say a word, and timidly hid behind the sofa, looking at them with his head tilted.

Yuan Qiu was not good at dealing with children, so Shen Conglan took the initiative to go to Zhou Xiaochao's side. He smiled and said to Xiaochao, "Can I pet your kitten? What's its name."

Zhou Xiaochao didn't speak, and after a while, he replied in a low voice, "...Snowball."

Shen Conglan gently touched the kitten's head, Shen Conglan smiled and looked very kind, Zhou Xiaochao hugged the cat, thought for a while, and sat on the sofa in front of Shen Conglan.

Although Zhou Xiaochao didn't speak, he looked very obedient and sensible. Shen Conglan breathed a sigh of relief, and said to him, "As for me, I'll just ask you a few questions, just nod or shake your head."

Zhou Xiaochao hugged the kitten, and nodded after a while.

"When you and Xiao Di were camping, didn't you live in your own room?"

Zhou Xiaochao nodded slightly.

"Do you know a boy named Bai Hui from Changqi Middle School?"

Zhou Xiaochao kept his mouth tightly shut, his face pale, and after a while, he nodded.

"Did he... bully you and Xiaodi?"

Zhou Xiaochao lowered his head, his body trembling slightly.Hearing this, Zhou Cheng's face turned dark and ugly, as if he was suppressing his anger.He poured Zhou Xiaochao a glass of water in the kitchen and put it on the coffee table.The water wave trembled slightly, Zhou Xiaochao glanced at Zhou Cheng inadvertently, as if testing his reaction, after a while, he nodded slowly.

"Yasone Waterfall...Did Bai Hui force you to go with him?" Shen Conglan continued to ask.

Zhou Xiaochao stared blankly for a moment, then nodded as expected.

This reaction is consistent with Xiao Di's recollection that it was Bai Hui who forced the four of them to explore the Yasong Waterfall in search of the Nanpo ghost doll.It was Bai Hui's idea to go out that day.

"Ghost dolls can eat people, and bad children who are disobedient will be eaten by ghost dolls."

When Zhou Xiaochao said such a sentence without thinking, Shen Conglan was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, and hurriedly asked: "What do you mean?"

Zhou Xiaochao replied: "Other children say that."

It was the first time they had heard of the rumor that Nanpo ghost dolls were eating bad children, and there was no such thing in the previous version.Shen Conglan and Yuan Qiu looked at each other, and they both sensed that something was wrong. Although Nanpo ghost doll is an unreliable ghost story, the corpses of more than 40 children dug out from the cave are bloody facts.

"Why did Bai Hui force you to go out with him to find Nanpo Ghost Doll?" Shen Conglan continued to ask.

Zhou Xiaochao thought for a while, shook his head, and said nothing.Yuan Qiu interrupted suddenly at this moment: "Bai Hui is on the way to the Yasong Waterfall, has he been looking for something or someone?"

Zhou Xiaochao didn't seem to want to recall what happened that night, his face was terrified, curled up on the sofa, trembling with the kitten in his arms, Shen Conglan couldn't bear it, and persuaded: "Forget it, he is still a child, let's not force him him."

Yuan Qiu was not hard-hearted either, seeing that Zhou Xiaochao was already trembling with fright, he couldn't ask any more questions, so he had to give up.
