The strange case of the demon book

?The next day, when Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui were on errands, Ma Wenrui had a great time talking about the chaos at the floating market last night.Because of the floating market, this fight is not once or twice.But the scale of the fight from last night was much larger than before.Ma Wenrui saw that Huo Wencai made a way out and his hands were itchy, and he wanted to get in and follow Huo Wencai to fight those people.Why do you want to make money yourself?

Ma Wenrui patted Huo Wencai's shoulder with a smile: "Brother, you did a good job."

Huo Wen was a little helpless: "Come on. I will go in the future, and they will definitely trouble me."

Ma Wenrui interjected: "That's not necessarily true. There are fights every day, and everyone will take revenge. I don't think the floating market will be open. Besides, that area is the site of Master Tie. If there is a big riot, Master Tie will not send anyone. Go clean up."

Huo Wencai realized that it was so.I didn't expect that it was Master Tie's territory, and I had to go to Master Tie's appointment tonight.

After patrolling around at noon, the two went to a noodle stall on Taiping Street to solve their stomach problems.As far as Huo Wencai was concerned, during the past month, everyone in Taiping Street knew that he was the new policeman on duty.

Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui were eating noodles when suddenly a woman rushed to the red room and cried, "My child is missing! My child is missing!" Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui hurriedly put down the noodle bowls in their hands.Seeing Ma Wenrui and Huo Wencai, the woman rushed forward crying and fell on top of them, crying out of breath: "My child, my child is missing, hurry, help me find it."

"Aunt Hong, don't worry. Speak slowly." Ma Wenrui said while supporting Aunt Hong who was crying on him and Huo Wencai.

Aunt Hong cried until her eyes were swollen: "You guys hurry up and look for it! Look for it!"

Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui helped Aunt Hong into the red room and let her sit down: "Auntie, drink some water. Speak slowly, and we will find the child for you when you make it clear."

After Aunt Hong took a sip of water and calmed down, she cried...

A quarter of an hour ago, my child was playing blind with the children on Taiping Street. After guessing boxing, my child lost and became blind.So everyone covered his eyes and began to touch the blind man.Then my own child disappeared inexplicably.

Aunt Hong's child disappeared inexplicably, which also baffled Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui.

Huo Wencai used a pen to record the missing child's appearance, characteristics, name, and missing place, etc., and said, "Aunt Hong, take us to the place where they play."

"it is good."

So Aunt Hong took Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui to the yard where the children played fifteen minutes ago.That yard is an abandoned yard. On Taiping Street, this yard is public.This yard is very old, it was left by a grandma in the past.Because the grandma's family has no descendants, it has become a public property for the Taiping neighborhood, and everyone will use it when they want it.The children on Taiping Street also use this yard as a playground and often play in it.

After the three of them arrived at the yard, they only saw some firewood and old rice jars piled up in the yard.

"They're just playing around here. I searched every corner of the yard and couldn't find my child." Aunt Hong started crying again as she spoke.Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui searched the yard, not only that, but also climbed up the wall to look at other people's yards.But there was no trace of a child.

Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui jumped off the wall: "Aunt Hong, go and call in all the children who are playing at noon."

"Okay, okay. I'll go right away." Aunt Hong wiped her tears and left.

Huo Wencai looked at the yard with the skylights open and the sun was shining hotly, and said, "Could it be that Aunt Hong has a grudge with someone and kidnapped the child?"

Ma Wenrui said: "If there is, it cannot be taken away from the eyes of the neighbors on Taiping Street."

Down the street from Taiping Street, everyone is doing small businesses or opening shops, and everyone knows the basics.If a stranger really takes the child away, the neighbors of Taiping Street will find out and stop it immediately.So the possibility of being taken away by a stranger is unlikely.Moreover, Aunt Hong had already searched Taiping Street before asking them to call the police, and asked everyone in the neighborhood, but no one saw Aunt Hong's child walking out of Taiping Street by herself.Therefore, the possibility of the child leaving Taiping Street by himself was also ruled out.

Huo Wencai calculated: "If Aunt Hong has a grudge with someone, the child may be hidden in an unknown corner of Taiping Street if she hasn't left Taiping Street. People who are familiar with her are the most defenseless."

Ma Wenrui said, "If that's the case, it's the easiest to find."

As long as the child is still on Taiping Street, they will be able to find it.There are countless possibilities to deduce that the child is missing.Crossing out the unreasonable part is the closest to the truth.But before that, they need to learn about these things from the other children.

Aunt Hong quickly brought all the children who were playing blind with her own children to the yard, and the parents of other children also came.

After a group of people arrived in the yard, Aunt Hong said to Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui: "I brought all the children, except my children."

So Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui separately asked the eight children how they were touching the blind man.

The children's answers varied, but there was one thing everyone agreed on.This made Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui feel chills that they didn't come.

"Chew lost so he was blind, so we blindfolded him and let him catch us. But then Chew stopped catching us, and he kept walking around the yard. He also said he caught us, but I saw him I didn't catch anything. Later, later Qiuzi disappeared." After speaking, a flash of fear flashed in the child's eyes.

Huo Wencai patted the child's head and said to Aunt Hong: "Aunt Hong, hasn't this child told you?"

Aunt Hong said loudly: "How could a person in broad daylight disappear alive? They must be lying."

Because they didn't believe it, they didn't tell Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui about it.

The child's parents echoed: "Yes, the children must have read it wrong..." The adults couldn't believe it.

Ma Wenrui raised his hand: "Everyone be quiet."

Everyone calm down.Ma Wenrui called all the children in front of him: "Can you play the game of touching the blind again for Uncle? You can play as you played with Qiuzai just now. You, yes, it is you. You will play Qiuzai, but, We don't blindfold you. How did you play with Chewboy just now. Do you understand?"

The kid nodded.

"Everyone disperse," Ma Wenrui said.So all the adults scattered to one side and pressed against the corner.The children in the middle of the yard started the game of groping the blind, and the children who played the role of Qiu Zai learned Qiu Zai's every move.

It didn't take long for the adults present to notice that the kid playing Chew Tsai was behaving strangely.The child's eyes suddenly became loose and unable to focus.

"Hey, I'm almost catching you."

"Don't hide."

"I know where you are."

The kid who played Chewboy chased into the empty air, and the other kids stopped and shrank in fear.

"Ha, I'm going to catch you!" Just as the child stretched out his hand to grab the air, Huo Wen suddenly jumped to the child's side and picked him up.The other children suddenly burst into tears in fright.The eyes of the child who was picked up by Huo Wencai suddenly became clear, and he didn't understand why Huo Wencai was holding him.

The adults present hugged their children one after another and comforted them, but the child only knew how to cry and didn't know what to ask.So they took their children home.When the parents of the child in Huo Wencai's arms wanted to take the child away, Huo Wencai stopped him and said, "I'll ask the child something."

"Who were you trying to catch just now?"

The child shook his head.

"Then do you still remember what happened just now?" Huo Wencai asked.

The child shook his head: "I don't remember. Dad, I, I'm afraid." The child raised his head and said to his father.

The child's father took the child away from Huo Wencai's arms: "I'm taking the child home, Aunt Hong will come to me if you have anything to do." The child's father said with a grim expression and carried the child away from the yard.

Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui glanced at each other.

Ma Wenrui said to Aunt Hong: "Aunt Hong, let's find you a child on Taiping Street."

"Okay, okay." Aunt Hong's face turned pale, and a feeling of uneasiness enveloped his whole body.

The three left the yard, so they searched door to door on Taiping Street.After a few steps, everyone knew about the disappearance of Aunt Hong's child, so everyone who had nothing to do helped find the child on Taiping Street.Ma Wenrui also specifically asked Aunt Hong whether her children had ever left Taiping Street at the intersection and end of the street.They all answered no.

"It's a ghost! It's a ghost who took the child away! Go! Go away!" an old voice screamed.After checking the sound, Huo Wen saw that it was the old lady who had been holding onto his hand and was yelling and cursing.

Huo Wencai said loudly: "Grandma, look up. The sun is shining above your head. Where is the daylight coming from?"

"If you don't believe me, go ask Lingpo." Grandma cried strangely.

Huo Wencai loudly overwhelmed Grandma's voice: "Do you believe it in broad daylight?"

Everyone was happy: "If the ghosts in broad daylight can appear, wouldn't the world be in chaos!"

Grandma saw that no one believed her, so she cursed nonchalantly: "If you don't believe what Grandma says, you will regret it. If you have children, go buy talisman stickers and lock the door at night."

No one paid any attention to Grandma's words and continued looking for the child.And after Huo Wencai saw the back of his grandmother leaving, his tense heart was relieved.If everyone believed Grandma's words, the Taiping Street would be filled with a terrifying atmosphere, so even if what Grandma said was true, Huo Wencai couldn't make everyone believe it.

Otherwise, Taiping Street would have to be messed up.

Everyone searched from the street to the end of the street, but except for the "dead man's house" Zhang's house, no trace of the child was found.

So a large group of neighbors gathered in front of Zhang's house and stopped.

Huo Wencai took off his police cap and said to the neighbors on Taiping Street: "I'll go in and look for it, everyone will wait here."

"Wencai, why don't I go in with you?" Although Ma Wenrui didn't believe in the rumors about Zhang's mansion in the neighborhood, he was still a little worried.

"It's okay, I know the owner of Zhang's house." Huo Wencai said.

"Alright then, we'll wait for you outside." Ma Wenrui said.

"it is good."

With that said, Huo Wencai knocked on the door of Zhang's house and pushed it in.

Speaking of which, he lost Zhang Jue's jade ring, what should he say when he sees him.
