This put Ye Lin's investigation into a difficult situation, because he had to stay here to investigate, so Ye Lin lived in the village chief's house and took a few packs of good cigarettes, which made the village chief very happy.

As night fell, the villagers started to have dinner. Ye Lin couldn't figure out the problem, so he just ate a few bites and went out for a walk.

The night in the deep mountains is very quiet, very quiet.

There is no roar of cars, no sound of square dancing, only the occasional chirping of insects and the sound of wind blowing through the woods.

You know what, the night wind was a bit chilly, and Ye Lin couldn't help but shrink back.

Jin Yuner, 4 years old, was missing. No one knew about it, no one called out, and it took 4 hours to get out of the mountain. Normally, no one would come here to abduct and sell children.

So, it is likely that I got lost accidentally.

But why was Jin Cheng so scared when he saw Xu Sihan who looked exactly like Jin Yuner, and even shouted "ghost, ghost"?

Ye Lin's mind started to work rapidly. He had asked Village Chief Jin, and he knew that there were not many cases of children accidentally getting lost in the village.

So does that mean Jin Yun'er wasn't lost, but Jin Cheng saw something and was scared crazy?

No matter how you think about it, the key should lie with Jin Cheng.

Ye Lin walked towards Jin Cheng's room unconsciously. At night, the lights in Jin Cheng's room were on.

This madman doesn't seem to be that crazy. At least he still knows how to light a lamp.

Ye Lin called a few times at the door, but no one answered him, so he walked straight in.

When I pushed open the door, I saw Jin Cheng sitting at the end of the bed with a silly smile on his face. The floor and the table were still dirty.

Just when Ye Lin wanted to ask him if he had eaten, he found a new set of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and all the food had been eaten.

Looking at the feces all over the floor, I wonder if this guy can still eat after going crazy, but it's a bit disgusting.

"Um, do you still remember me?" Ye Lin wanted to try to communicate.

"Hehehe." Jin Cheng glanced at Ye Lin, and apart from smiling foolishly, there was no movement.

Ye Lin was just about to ask about Jin Yuner, but when he thought about what happened in the afternoon, he decided to give up.

He pointed behind him and made a gesture of worshiping Buddha.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Jin Cheng responded, kneeling on the bed, clasping his hands together, and returning the greeting to Ye Lin.

Even though he was crazy, he still remembered to worship Buddha. Ye Lin couldn't help but sigh that sometimes things like faith really cannot be explained by science.

Ye Lin hummed twice again, pointed behind him and made a gesture of worshiping Buddha.

He wanted Jin Cheng to take him to the back to worship Buddha. Jin Cheng actually understood what he saw. He jumped off the bed excitedly and pulled Ye Lin to the back.

Ye Lin had a look of disgust on his face. He had just seen this guy's hands rubbing on the ground. Brother, you are crazy and I am not disgusted. I am still a normal person.

Fortunately, it was behind the house. Jin Cheng happily took Ye Lin to the small Buddhist temple at the back and pointed to the Buddha statue enshrined there.

Then he went to the side and lit three incense sticks, bowed to the Buddha statue, put them in the incense burner, knelt on the cushion in front of the Buddha statue, clasped his hands together, and muttered to himself very piously.

At this time, there was no madness on Jin Cheng's face. Instead, his face was solemn, and he looked a bit like a high monk.

After finishing the arrangement, Jin Cheng stood aside respectfully and made a gesture of invitation.

Ye Lin realized that he wanted him to burn some incense as well.

Ye Lin followed his example, picked up three incense sticks, lit them, worshipped Buddha, and then inserted them into the incense burner.

For such a small Buddhist hall, Jin Cheng actually bought the kind of incense burner used in big temples, which is an antique tripod. There is already a thick layer of incense ash inside, and no one knows how many years it has been burned.

Ye Lin was a little speechless. With that money, he could probably renovate the house. Sometimes he really couldn't understand them.

Ye Lin gently inserted the incense into the ground. It was sandy, with a layer of sand buried underneath, and only a layer of incense ash on top. This was pretty good, otherwise he would really admire Jin Cheng.

The smoke slowly rose with the incense. Because the Buddhist hall was too small, the whole hall was soon filled with smoke, with a unique smell of incense and candles.

Ye Lin also knelt down and kowtowed to the Bodhisattva, then raised his head and stood up.

Suddenly, he felt that there seemed to be something dirty on the Bodhisattva statue in front of him, so he was about to wipe it off.

Jin Cheng, who was standing next to him, was originally very satisfied with Ye Lin's approach, but suddenly when he saw Ye Lin trying to touch the Buddha statue, he immediately became anxious.

He grabbed Ye Lin, screaming and trying to hit Ye Lin.

However, Ye Lin's skills were beyond his control. Ye Lin turned his right hand around, struggled downwards, and broke free from Jin Cheng's hand.

Then he grabbed Jin Cheng's hand and pushed him out.

He even wanted to attack the police. That's outrageous.

Jin Cheng felt pain in his hand and knew that he could not beat Ye Lin, so he stood outside the Buddhist temple and screamed wildly.

It immediately attracted a group of people, and Village Chief Jin also rushed over.

"What's wrong? Captain Ye, are you injured?" Village Chief Jin asked the first time.

"It's okay. When I wanted to touch the Buddha statue, he got anxious and started going crazy again." Ye Lin explained.

"Alas, he is just so obsessed. I'll ask someone to take him back." Village chief Jin found a few young men and asked them to send Jin Cheng back.

On the way back, Ye Lin also asked casually, "I saw new bowls and chopsticks on his table. Did someone bring him food?"

"Oh, that was given to him by Ginny. Ginny is the one I told you about who also believes in Buddhism. Her parents are dead, but she sometimes chats with Jin Cheng about Buddhist scriptures and so on. They get along well."

"After Jin Cheng went crazy, I was also worried about what to do. I couldn't let him starve to death. Jin Nier said she would deliver food and the village would give some subsidies."

"Well, someone is delivering food to a madman, so of course I am willing to do so."

Ye Lin nodded. It would be best if someone could do this dirty and smelly job.

When I returned to the village chief's house, I saw a half-grown girl just coming out.

"Jin Nier, you're here?" Village Chief Jin greeted, then turned to Ye Lin and said, "This is the girl who brought food to Jin Cheng just now. Her parents are dead, and she is the only one left."

Ye Lin looked over. He estimated that Ginny was only about thirteen or fourteen years old. She was still very young, but perhaps because her parents died early, her face already had the fatigue of an adult.

The girl was average looking, not pretty, just average. She was thin and frail, and looked malnourished.

Seeing the village chief calling her, Ginny stood aside a little apprehensively and whispered, "Village chief, our oranges are ripe. I'll bring some to you."

She had an empty basket hanging from her hand, presumably for oranges.

"Okay, your oranges are sweet. Wait a minute, I'll get you something." Village Chief Jin asked her to stop and walked in.
