dead person

Han Mingxu was also a little surprised to receive news from Zhou Yun.He rubbed his aching temples, and decided to find out who Du Changyuan was.

He actually asked Zhou Yun to ask someone in the company for help.

Before ten o'clock at night, he received an email from the client.As soon as he opened the email, he saw the ID photo pasted in the upper right corner of the file.

His eyes narrowed slightly on the red face in the photo, it seemed that he had seen this person somewhere before.

Scanning that person's file at a glance, he became a little puzzled when he saw the word "death" at the end.

This... It takes a lot of time to find out what a dead person does.

Even so, he still reorganized the emails he had received and sent them to Zhou Yun.I went back and added a message to the client.

You look up everything else about this guy.

Lying on the big bed in the hotel, Zhou Yun tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. When he closed his eyes, he always seemed to see Du Changyuan's face, crying for him to save him.

Of course he knew that everything was false, so Du Changyuan wouldn't cry and beg him, let alone call him Ayun in such a sticky tone.

As soon as the email notification sounded, he sat up from the bed.He quickly clicked on the information, carefully read every word of the email, and then threw the phone away and collapsed on the bed.

The content of the email was nothing more than the ordinary daily life and growth of a country boy, and nothing else could be found that would be related to his disappearance.

The only difference is that he never knew that Du Changyuan had already died once when he was ten years old.

All he knows is the later ones, another version of the story.In that story, the young Du Changyuan met a man who took him away from his hometown and never went back.

He scratched his hair, turned over a little annoyed, buried himself in the bed, closed his eyes and forced himself to fall asleep first.

Let's go to the police station again tomorrow. Even if I contact other people now and the task is finally assigned, it will still fall on a few people in that police station.

Hope to hear different news tomorrow.

Early in the morning, after eating breakfast indiscriminately, he appeared outside the police station as if clocking in for work.

Liu Ming stopped his scooter and caught a glimpse of him: "You haven't found your friend yet?"

"He's really missing. I've been to his place of work and his home. Moreover, he has been away for almost a month this time, and there is no news until now. I'm afraid that something happened to him."

Liu Ming didn't take it seriously, the countryside has its advantages, people from all over the world can chat a few more words, and they can always have a little bit of family relationship, so that terrible cases in big cities won't happen every now and then.

"Could it be that he went somewhere else?"

"No, comrade policeman, trust me, but I have searched for him wherever I can find him. I see that you are not busy anyway, why don't you follow me to find someone. The village feels like It's so uncomfortable..."

While the two were talking, Lao Li, who was working at the police station with Liu Ming, opened the door and walked in. He heard that the village was uncomfortable, and asked casually, "What the hell is the village uncomfortable?"

Lao Li is 59 this year, and after two more months, he will be able to retire.In order to let himself relax, these days he was also busy teaching Liu Ming how to deal with these trivial matters at the police station.

He didn't want to be busy with these crap things at the police station every day after he retired.

Zhou Yun stopped talking, looked back at Lao Li, and blurted out the name of Shizi Village.

Lao Li, who had already entered the door, took off the thick scarf around his neck, and breathed into his palm: "Shizi Village?"

He glanced at Zhou Yun with frowning eyebrows. Zhou Yun quickly said that he was not from Shizi Village, so Lao Li pulled a chair and sat beside him.

Liu Ming quickly brewed hot tea and handed it to the two of them, and sat down in front of Lao Li.He knew that whenever Lao Li looked like this, it was time to start telling stories.Those stories are much more interesting than ghosts and ghosts.

The actions of the two of them greatly pleased Lao Li.When this person is old, he naturally talks more than when he was young.They are naturally at ease when they meet this young man who is willing to listen to them say a few more words.

He cleared his throat and started talking from the very beginning of Shizi Village.After only a few words, Liu Ming urged: "Uncle Li, pick up the ones from recent years and start talking, the ones that are too far away..."

Lao Li rolled his eyes at him, but he didn't continue talking about the old things.He swallowed a big mouthful of hot tea, and slowly opened his mouth amidst the steam.

"Before this Shizi Village, it was no different from other villages. To talk about changes, it must have started more than ten years ago. At that time, I was just transferred to this police station not long ago, about 98 years old. The year was still in 99..."

"In the summer of that year, a child drowned in Shizi Village. Children of that age were naughty, and one or two would always drown in the whole town every summer, so I didn't take it seriously."

"Strangely enough, about two months later, the child's parents suddenly went to the police station to report that their son had been killed. At that time, the child's body had decayed a long time ago. There are no clues, and there is no way to investigate this case. In addition, the child drowned and died during the autopsy, and his parents also signed it."

"Later, the case was naturally over."

"Since someone reported this, they should investigate it anyway." Liu Ming couldn't understand.

Lao Li took another sip of water, and looked out of the window of the police station with his eyes clouded by cataracts: "I just came here at the time, and I thought the same thing as you. This is a clue. The parents of the child said it upside down, but they couldn’t produce any evidence.”

"As for the people in that village, everyone's testimonies are so perfect that it's outrageous. There was nothing we could do at the time..."

Old Li paused, and licked his sore and dry lips: "Not long after the last incident, I heard people say that the woman in that family couldn't bear it mentally, and she let go within a few days, and stayed behind. His father is alone, and it is pitiful to say the least."

"Afterwards, I often paid attention to the situation of his family, thinking that losing a child is too painful, and if there is anything that can help, I will try my best to help. At the beginning, the man in the family would occasionally say a word to me, saying Said his son..."

"Later, he became more and more silent day by day, and seemed to be preoccupied all day long."

"What happened later?" Liu Ming was a little dissatisfied with Lao Li's slow speaking speed, and hurriedly urged.

"How many times have I told you, you have to change your temper quickly, it's terrible that you are so hasty in this line of work." Lao Li glanced at him sideways, "Later, later in the village, children from several families died one after another. He died in an accident one after another, and after that, no one from that village came out again."

"Damn it, it couldn't be that person who killed all those children. Just because his own son died, he can't see others well!"

Before Liu Ming finished speaking, he received a solid slap on the forehead.

"What are you talking about all day long? You just said it casually, let others hear it and spread it, and you still let people live?" Old Li hated iron and steel for a few words of education, and then continued.

He coughed twice in embarrassment: "At the beginning, I thought the same as you, and just stared at him for a while. Later, when those children died, he was basically within my sight. It couldn't be him. .”

When Zhou Yun heard this, he never expected that such a small village would cause so many messes.He hurriedly pushed Liu Ming away: "That police officer, have you heard of Du Changyuan? What was he like at that time?"

Hearing this name, Lao Li also thought for a while before speaking: "Du Changyuan... Oh, I remembered, he was the child king of Shizi Village at that time. That little mouth is so sweet, the old ladies and old men in the village don't have it." One doesn’t like him. Every time we go to the village to do business, we also follow each other. At that time, he also said that when he grows up, he wants to be a policeman like me.”

Lao Li changed the topic, and his tone was a little regretful: "It's a pity, such a good child died so early..."

Zhou Yun really couldn't connect the Du Changyuan in his memory with the sweet-mouthed child in Lao Li's mouth.He couldn't help shivering when he thought that Du Changyuan would be as sweet-mouthed as Lao Li said now.

That would be too scary.

As for the second half of Lao Li's sentence, he already knew it as early as last night, so it's not surprising.

He was not surprised, but Liu Ming was greatly frightened.As soon as Lao Li finished speaking, he quickly asked like a machine gun: "Uncle Li, it could be that you are old and have a bad memory, right? I saw that Du Changyuan was alive and well a few days ago. .”

After finishing speaking, he was afraid that Lao Li would slap him again, so he quickly pushed Zhou Yun out: "And him, he is Du Changyuan's friend, who came to report the case of Du Changyuan's disappearance."

Old Li withdrew his habitual slap, frowned, stared at Zhou Yun and said, "Impossible, when Du Changyuan died there was a lot of commotion in the village, I went there once. How could he still be alive? "

Liu Ming quickly opened the backup file that Du Changyuan's family had printed out when they came to check their identity information, spread the file on the table, and pulled Lao Li over.

"Uncle Li, can you see if this is the Du Changyuan you mentioned? I have also checked the identity system, and this identity information is absolutely infallible. If he is really Du Changyuan, the person buried in the village at that time Who is it? There can't be a lunatic who opened up the cemetery in the middle of the night and revived the corpse."

Lao Li took the copy of the certificate and looked at it for a long time before he nodded in disbelief.

"That's right, he is Chang Changyuan. His appearance has not changed much from when he was a child, except that his skin is fairer and his facial features are slightly longer."
