Daqing Criminal Division

In the middle of the night, a suspected baby's cry suddenly came from the temple on the top of the mountain.

Moreover, the Suzhou businessman also told Duan Xiao afterwards.

The crying that night was sometimes distant and sometimes near, like a child running all over the hill.

After such a strange incident, the Suzhou businessman who was sitting opposite Duan Ou in the teahouse where the two were in the street also told him in detail the reason for the report.

He said that because eleven days had passed since the incident, he was actually not very sure until now, which is why he stopped mentioning it after he reported the case to no avail that night.

On the 25th, the first reporter of the nuisance incident at the temple on the top of the mountain.

What he saw that night, he did not share with others afterward.

After all, this Tianmu Mountain is some distance away from the foot of the mountain, even if there is a cry, it shouldn't be heard so far away, and it won't be said that it will run far and close at one time.

But maybe, facing Duan Ou's visit again, the Suzhou businessman who had taken the initiative to report the crime didn't continue to hide it after thinking about it, but just got down from the table and sighed,

"Hey, that's the case, but I'm not sure if I heard it wrong, because there are no women in the temple, where did the baby come from, right? The crying sound is weird, and I can't hear it after being covered by the bell. That's why I decided to report to the police in the middle of the night."

"On the one hand, ringing the bell in the middle of the night is really annoying, and there are no longer a few people who hear it down the mountain; The foreign merchants who disturbed me went to this muddy water for a while, if a baby is really trapped in the temple, I would count it as a meritorious deed."

"But who would have expected that this matter would turn back and forth, which made people really puzzled. After the government went to investigate, they found nothing. After thinking about it carefully, I felt that maybe it was the crying of babies elsewhere that made me cry. This time I got confused, and I have deliberately troubled others for this, and I feel a little bit sorry."

"Besides, you are a member of the government, and you must have seen more of the world than people like me, but to say, the baby's crying sounds really weird to me, as if the baby can run around by itself. , how can a newborn doll have such great abilities?"

This Suzhou businessman also said that he was full of doubts.

At first, Duan Xiao felt that this kind of thing was very wrong.

Because the businessman repeatedly emphasized that although his hearing was fine, it was not a matter of his hearing that night, but that the cry was closer to human perception than that of ordinary babies.

But what is it called, that crying sound is sometimes far away and sometimes near?

On this point, the Suzhou businessman himself couldn't explain clearly.

But then, a very small and unremarkable incident happened on the street, which just verified the point that the two of them were discussing.

At the moment, at the end of Duan Ou's line of sight, two people were sitting drinking tea, one on the left and the other on the right.

The horses and chariots outside the teahouse behind the two of them were going back and forth, and people in various clothes were walking back and forth on the road.

The Hangzhou mansion on this day is just like the day on the 25th, and the weather is about the same.

All the traffic and people below are the bustling ecology of Hangzhou Prefecture.

On the opposite side across a front street, you can vaguely see an old man carrying a small doll walking forward, but passing by a cloth shop with a plaque on it, an old man with a basket on his back put the doll aside , Come to the restaurant here to deliver bamboo shoots and vegetables by yourself.

The little doll was playing on the side of the road by herself, and accidentally fell on the ground with her hands on the ground, her trouser legs were torn, and she lay on the ground and cried loudly.

The distance from the front street in the distance is roughly four to five hundred steps away from where the two are now.

This distance of steps makes it impossible for an ordinary person like Duan Xiao, who is not hearing impaired, to be able to hear the baby crying.

In addition to the noise on the street, he could see that the child was only opening his mouth on the side of the street, so he could judge from the body language of the other party that he was crying.

Therefore, the Suzhou merchants with their backs to the front street didn't realize that there was a doll who fell down and cried loudly behind him.

But at this moment, a little servant from the cloth shop ran out. Seeing that the baby was crying, the little servant picked up the account book and rolled it into a tube, and held it in his hand like a trumpet and pointed it at the restaurant. He yelled twice, and then simply ran over, yelling in front of the building.

This is facing the two loud voices shouting here.

It was the name of the old man in the restaurant, but half the people in the restaurant heard the voice, and they were startled and hurriedly turned around to look.

For a moment, the little servant's voice was clearly far away, but it seemed to be very close to the person.

Moreover, as he ran over, the spread of the sound became louder and louder.

Duan Xiao, who was sitting in the tea room with his teacup down, could see all of this clearly.

Even the cry of the baby, the sound of the little servant being amplified by the paper tube, and the number of steps between the front streets were all in his eyes.

After that, he didn't delay the Suzhou businessman's time to go on the road. Instead, after asking these important details, the two of them said goodbye, and he got up and left first.

But when he returned to the government that day, Duan Xiao, who had already gone through the first round of witness testimony, simply went back and met Jin Ruoyun again.

Coincidentally, when Duan Xiaoren came back, Fucha Erji was also there.

Not only that, because it was past meal time at this time, and I guessed that Duan Xiao might have eaten outside today, and the two of them had already eaten here.

The government of Hangzhou can use public funds to order food to eat in the yamen, which is common among the yamen servants. These two people took over the official cases of the two yamen with peace of mind, put all the tables together, and sent three or two drinks and dishes here. eat.

Jin Ruoyun, a bearded man, has been working hard on the case for the past two days, so he patted his knees while drinking and eating food, while bragging about where he used to be when he was on business, and he was invited to the best banquet by a local wealthy family.

"Fucha, have you ever eaten hump meat before?"

In fact, I don't really know what a hump is, I just want to find something to talk about in front of my friends, Jin Ruoyun showed off with a little pride when she said that.

"Oh, really not. When I was young, my family was poor and I didn't eat much meat and vegetables. What is a hump? Is it delicious?"

Hearing this, Fuchaerzi, who 'talked nonsense with his eyes open', was quite excited to talk nonsense with Jin Ruoyun.

"Then you are out of luck. I heard that only the empresses in the palace and the gang of dignitaries eat it. It tastes very good. As for the hump, it is the fat and saddle of the camel, but many people think it is It's camels that give milk... Anyway, this food is delicious, next time brother, I'll treat you..."

"Oh, good, brother, I will remember what you said today."

As soon as he heard that there was such a good thing as eating and drinking for free, Fucha Erji, a spineless poor man, immediately rubbed his hands and thanked him first.

It was also when these two guys were crossing their legs, bragging about drinking and eating here, Fuchaerzi turned around and saw Duan Xiao who was coming in, so he greeted him.

"What's the matter, how is it going?"

During the conversation, Fucha Erji was still discussing about the 'hump' in his mouth just now, and Fucha Erji consciously moved a little to the side to let Duan Xiao sit down, and Jin Ruoyun asked casually when he saw this.

"Duan Xiao, have you eaten?"

But before Duan Xiao could speak, a man surnamed Fu Cha answered from the side.

"He definitely won't eat. Handsome guys are picky eaters, willful, and have a personality. Didn't you see that he has a better figure than you?"

These words directly caused the "handsome guy" who is picky eaters, self-willed and individualistic to hit back to a certain extent. However, after one guy finished speaking, he staggered and hid as if he had eyes on his back.

It was harmless for the two of them to fight for a while, but after seeing no results, they were willing to sit down and talk about serious business.

But usually, Duan Xiao really wouldn't eat these things that he didn't have an appetite for at all.

But I don't know that just after someone said that, he sat down, and it was rare that he ate two bites with the two of them in a gregarious manner. By the way, the three of them continued the topic just now.

Duan Xiao: "What hump were you talking about just now?"

Fuchaerji: "Oh, Jin Ruoyun just said that he would treat us to eat the hump, you didn't hear me."

Duan Xiao: "Really, then I would like to thank you in advance, I just haven't eaten."

Jin Ruoyun: "..."

Originally, he was just a casual bragging about 'mavericks', but he didn't expect that Fuchaerzi, who didn't know if it was on purpose, turned around and partnered with Duan Xiao and started planning to blackmail him.

Fortunately, afterward, this 'dangerous' topic, which obviously wanted to entrap Jin Ruoyun's salary, did not continue.

It was also at this time that Duan Xiao, who sat down to investigate the nuisance incident in the temple this time, but did not plan to talk about business first, gave his own statement.

"I now suspect that there may be a possibility that the twin dead babies were not discarded voluntarily."

The three of them sat in the yamen like this.

Duan Xiao said suddenly.

Upon hearing this, Fucharzi, who was still on the sidelines, fell silent, and turned his head to look at him with a slight expression.

"Ah? Why, Duan Xiao?"

Jin Ruoyun put on an attitude of listening attentively. At the moment, Duan Xiao was sitting in front of Jin Ruoyun and Fucha Erji, but after thinking about it, he opened his mouth again.

"I just went to find one of the parties who reported the nuisance in the temple on the night of the 25th. He told me one thing. He said that he had heard the cry of a baby that was far and near that night. He was At one time, I thought it was coming from Damingkong Temple, because the bell in the temple rang at that moment, covering up the crying."

"A businessman from Suzhou said that the baby's cry was louder than usual. Combined with the law of sound transmission and the actual distance up and down the mountain, it is very likely that there is some way to amplify the sound itself. We contacted the twins who died during our autopsy. The infants have no upper jaw, and they are conjoined twins, sharing a vocal pathway, so the source of the sound at that time may have come from the pair of dead babies who had no upper jaw and uttered directly through the nasal cavity."

Saying this, it also verified the fact that the dead baby did not have a palate in its mouth.

Because most of the sounds produced by the vibration of the human vocal cords pass through the barrier of the palate, the volume will be weakened after the barrier, but if two children use the same vocal channel and directly utter from the nasal cavity, the voice may indeed be abnormally loud .

"But there is another doubt about this matter, that is, after the incident, the policemen went up the mountain but found nothing related to the baby in the temple. At the same time, the Yamen found the dead baby three days after the incident, so the merchants heard The crying sound is not fake, but maybe it really didn't come from Daming Kong Temple, but from somewhere else."

Duan Xiao's words also brought out the biggest doubt in the case so far.

"Then where do you think the sound came from?"

In fact, I have already thought of a little bit in my mind, but I still wanted to see what Duan Xiao thought, so Fucha Erji, who was sitting with his arms folded, asked him that.

"It's not a single place, but the entire Tianmu Mountain that night may have been heard throughout the sound, so it caused the effect of being far and near."

"what do you mean--"

"Correct."

After hearing the conversation between the two of them, Jin Ruoyun obviously didn't understand, but Fucha Erji seemed to have understood something, and thought forgot to lay his hand.

They have now drawn their own conclusions.

Now, only after seeing the two suspects in person can they continue to investigate the truth behind the matter.

So this time, the two don't intend to miss the opportunity, but plan to catch the suspect of one of the incidents they have locked down first,

"Right now, go to Mingkong Village immediately and arrest people."

"Now?"

For what the two of them said, Jin Ruoyun was a little surprised at first.

You were still talking about the crying of the child just now, so why are you going to Mingkong Village again to arrest people?Where can people be arrested in Mingkong Village?

And the people in the village have already said that they don't even know the woman with four breasts in the portrait.

But afterward, the two men were not in a hurry to explain. They just said that more people should be brought up to arrest now, and there is no need to continue to question.

The most important thing is to hurry up and never let the person involved in this case go.

Since Fuchaerji and Duan Xiao are not sloppy people, then they suddenly started to say this, but it also shows that this time the situation should be a little abnormal.

This was originally a case of abandoning a baby, but it seemed that some major case that could not be explained clearly was involved.

As for the suspect, Duan Xiao said, just refer to the names of the female family members who had breast cancer on the Gongde tea before, and call the couple who have been targeted, Yang Rengui and Xiao Yang.

If the village still says they don't know Yang Rengui and his wife.

Regardless of other things, first break in to see who's house is outside the door. The men's clothes are more loose to dry, while the women's bellybands and obscene clothes are larger.

Because according to the medical records here in the yamen.

Yang Rengui suffers from lung cancer. In the middle and late stage, he will have pleural depression and bone disease. The clothes of normal adult men must not fit well.

And Xiao Yang is a patient of breast neoplasia, and it is very likely that the tumors carried on her body have already spread, spreading the lesions carried by her breasts to other parts of her body.

That's why the midwife Wang, who delivered babies in the middle of the night, said that she saw a terrifying four-breasted woman.

The so-called 'four breasts', no accident, were caused by the cancerous spread of Xiao Yang's accessory breasts or trunk.

Just like the hump that Jin Ruoyun mentioned before, it was not the breast that the woman used for breastfeeding, but it should be the cancer of her own flesh.

Combined with the dead baby first found in the mountains.

There are also many inherited deformities on the body, and the suspicion of the Yang couple is the biggest right now.

And if you say that Jin Ruoyun didn't understand why they both said to bring more people to go up the mountain at the beginning, but at noon, the first batch of officers and soldiers from the Hangzhou government went up to Namingkong Village, and formally took out the government office. The approval document here says that it is time to go in and get someone.

This thing is starting to change a bit.

Because after waiting for more than an hour, Fucha Erji and Duan Xiao, who were waiting at the Yamen of Hangzhou Prefecture, did not wait for the news that the officers and soldiers who went up to fetch people would come down again.

But after a while, a little yamen servant with sweaty head and disheveled clothes rushed down the mountain to deliver a letter.

It is said that they just went up the mountain this time, and according to what Fuchaerji and Duan Xiao said, after forcibly breaking into the village, they actually hung a lot of clothes to dry outside a door at the back of the village, and left the locked bungalow inside. , caught the suspected couple Yang Rengui and Xiao Yang.

But the situation of the two suspects at that time was quite wrong.

Because at that moment when the officers and soldiers broke in through the door, the house in the village where the two lived was not only a mess, but also had an extremely stench. Except for one window that was opened from the outside, there was no ventilation in the house.

Most of the food in the house was rotten and rotten, and there were dead poultry and flies full of maggots thrown on the bed.

A couple, Yang Rengui and Xiao Yang, fell naked on the mud floor of their house, their faces pale and angry, and they only opened their eyes and woke up like a pair of ghosts when they were captured by officers and soldiers.

The man was as thin as a skinned white monkey.

He was not very old, but his chest was sunken, his whole body was pale, he was foaming at the mouth and fell to the ground motionless.

The woman who was lying on the ground with foam all over her mouth was even more terrifying, not to mention her body was seriously out of shape.

On the chest, just as the old lady Wang said, there are a pair of extremely bloated brown-red, wrinkled and wrinkled giant sarcoids on the surface.

The bloody sarcoma grew together with the woman's breasts, oppressing her airway, making the lower half of her body so thin that she didn't look like a living person.

They are not dead.

It seems that there is not much difference between them and the dead.

Even more uncharacteristically, when the agents asked who they were.

They also stared blankly and couldn't answer, and they didn't know what had happened to them for so many days.

When they were both shackled and brought down, this ordinary couple from Mingkong Village, Lin'an County also looked desperate, trembling and shivering while talking.

During the process, most of the villagers of Mingkong Village, who had blocked the case several times before, did not come out to take care of it because of the forced search by the officers and soldiers this time.

But when Yang Rengui and Xiao Yang's couple were taken away by the yamen.

The others were also hiding at home strangely, and no one came out to look at it—all of this was sent down by the little yamen servant who came down the mountain first.

It's just that these things, on the contrary, make this matter even more abnormal and weird.

If so, they had intended to protect the Yang couple out of fellowship before, so why is there no one to take care of this matter at this time.

After that, Fuchaerji and Duan Xiao, who finished their first arrest, were in the Hangzhou government office, and then saw the two arrested suspects.

Seeing that the pale, ghost-like husband and wife were interrogated on both sides.

They personally admitted that they are Yang Rengui and Xiao Yang.

But when it comes to the pair of twin babies who appeared in the mountain, the emaciated and angry couple turned pale again, sweating on their foreheads and fell silent.

"...not us, no."

"Are you the couple that Mrs. Wang saw?"

"..."

But the Yangs didn't reply to these words.

"Do you know how the pair of dead babies appeared in the kennel?"

Among them, Xiao Yang, with disheveled hair and a prison uniform, was covering her bloated and cumbersome chest with her hands.

While the entire thin and aging face began to sweat, the acnes on the arms were also exposed.

She began to pant heavily, as if an uncontrollable desire was about to come out of her chest.

Duan Xiao, whose eyes had changed, saw this, combined with the scene that the officers and soldiers saw with their own eyes when they first went up the mountain to arrest people, and a long-standing question about the two suspects in their hearts was also solved.

——Because of the weird state of the couple suffering from cancer.

It's not a disease at all, but the two of them are actually "addicts" who are dyed with hemp leaves.

So far, about eleven days ago, how the twin deformed babies on Tianmu Mountain appeared in the kennels of farmers halfway up the mountain, and the strange cries from the merchants in Suzhou that night were also revealed!
