Just when we were thinking of investigating the bomb shelter, Wang Xi actually said that the ghost hiding mirror was not in the bomb shelter, and I couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
He couldn't help laughing again: "Hahaha... Because it was me who originally said that the ghost hiding in the air-raid shelter was me."
He immediately told us that the bomb shelter was his "bubble room" when he was young, and he would often seduce some ignorant girls to go there with him. Because he didn't want to be harassed by others, especially those little ghosts who didn't know what to do, he made up rumors that the ghost was hiding in the air-raid shelter to deter others from entering the air-raid shelter and ruining his "good thing".
"I didn't expect that a lie I told when I was a child would still be believed after more than ten years. Hahaha..." He laughed uncontrollably, the arrogance that was extinguished by Zhen Zhen just now came back in an instant.
"More than ten years? How old were you then?" I asked.
He answered proudly: "I was broken at the age of eleven, and I have never been short of women."
"Don't make me laugh, there will be girls who will pay attention to you, a worthless bastard." Zhen Zhen gave him a disdainful look.
He seemed to be stabbed to the core by Zhen Zhen's words, he was about to attack, but he held it back, and looked at Zhen Zhen with contempt, and said contemptuously, "I am indeed a worthless bastard, but I have a lot of money. The father who can't spend his ten lives. As long as you have money, do you still need to worry about women? The first one who took the initiative to let me be her slut, the picture is that my family has an endless supply of imported chocolate. You women, all of you It is greed for glory and profit, and on the surface it pretends to be arrogant, but before seeing the money, it spreads its legs!"
Even though Zhen Zhen spoke unkindly to him, his words were too much. Just when I was about to teach him a lesson, Zhen Zhen roared and rushed forward, kicking him hard on the crotch, causing him to squat down immediately.
"You, you stinky bitch, how dare you kick me..."
"What about kicking you!" Zhen Zhen said with another kick.
I was afraid that if I continued to let Zhen Zhen continue to make trouble, I would cause a lot of trouble, so I stepped forward and grabbed her, and dragged her out the door. When we walked to the door, Wang Xi, who was lying on the ground and moaning, suddenly shouted, "You will regret it later, and I will never let you go!"
I turned my head and said to him, "If I told your father that you bought your calligraphy certificate, he wouldn't let you go!" When I said that, his not so good face became even more ugly. .
When I pulled Zhen Zhen out of the reference room, I found a seven- or eight-year-old child hiding behind a pillar, sneaking out to peep at us. I walked up to him and said kindly, "Little boy, what's your name, why are you staying here and not going back to the classroom?"
"My name is Wang Jianqin." He whispered, "Are you the police?"
"Yeah, how did you know?" I smiled kindly.
"I heard what you said to Director Wang just now, and saw you beat him." He imitated Zhen Zhen's gesture of kicking Wang Xi.
"What if you beat him? He should be beaten!" Zhen Zhen shouted fiercely before her anger subsided. Yuqin was startled by her, she immediately shrank back, and her face was full of panic.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Jianqin, the police elder sister won't beat you. However, it's impolite to hide behind a pillar to peek at others!" I was afraid that Zhen Zhen would continue to get angry, so after comforting Jian Qin who was frightened, she wanted to pull Zhen Zhen left.
However, Jian Qin seemed to have something to say to me, but was too timid to speak. I had an intuition that he might be able to provide us with some clues, but to get the clues, we had to remove his fears. Whenever this happens, my little magic trick can come in handy. I reach out to his collar and say, "Xiao Jianqin, what are you hiding in your clothes?" He handed it over to him and said, "You're naughty, you even hid the candy behind your collar."
"Wow, the police uncle can do magic!" He looked at the candy in his hand excitedly, and his previous fear was instantly swept away.
I smiled and said, "Xiao Jianqin, do you have anything to tell the uncle of the policeman who knows magic?"
He nodded, then looked around, then took my hand and said, "Come with me and tell you when you go outside."
He took us to the back of the school, and after seeing that there was no one around, he said mysteriously to me: "The fourth and the others were taken away by the ghost in the air-raid shelter, and then she fell into the fish pond."
I thought he would tell us some clues that would be beneficial to our investigation, but I didn't expect it to be a repeat of the same old tune. Although he couldn't help me, I didn't want to extinguish his enthusiasm, so I said to him, "Xiao Jianqin, thank you for telling the police uncle! However, you should have heard Director Wang just now. The mirror ghost is not in the dugout at all."
"He lied!" His tone was very firm, "I saw the fourth and the others go in with my own eyes."
"You saw it with your own eyes?" I looked at the child in front of me in astonishment. "Can you tell me the details?"
He nodded, and then told us about the situation on the day the fifth Wangcun sister and brother disappeared—
I went to the second grade with the fourth, and usually played with him.
That day, he borrowed a football from Mr. Lu and played here with me and his siblings. We usually play football here, but we played so hard that day, chasing and kicking the ball, running to the dugout without noticing it. Later, I pushed the ball into the dugout with some force.
The football was borrowed by the fourth child from Teacher Lu, and it would be troublesome to lose it. Don't look at Mr. Lu's normal appearance, but once he becomes more terrifying than the ghost who hides the mirror, he will punish us for copying textbooks at every turn.
The fourth asked me to go into the air defense to retrieve the football, otherwise Mr. Lu would not let him go. I didn't dare to enter the air-raid shelter. It was dark inside, and it was scary enough to look inside, and there were ghosts hiding inside.
My mom always told me to throw me in a hole if I didn't obey. She also said that none of the children who were thrown in would come out alive, and their souls would be taken away by the hidden mirror ghost.
Because I was afraid, I said I would go home and help my mother, and they would run away without caring about the fourth child. I thought at the time, the football was borrowed by the fourth child, and even if Mr. Lu wanted to punish him, he would only be punished one, and I didn't need to accompany him to suffer.
Although I thought so in my heart, I was also afraid that they would really run into the air-raid shelter and be hooked by the ghost who hides the mirror. So I sneaked back without running very far, hiding behind a big tree and peeking at them, wondering what they would do.
The five brothers and sisters quarreled around for a long time, and finally the fourth one still said that they would go into the air-raid shelter to retrieve the football, and then they went in together. After they entered, there was no movement for a long time. I was very scared at the time. I didn't know if they had been killed by the Mirror-Hidden Ghost, and I didn't know what to do.
I was thinking about whether to run home immediately, or continue to hide behind a tree and wait for a while, when I suddenly heard the voice of the fourth child coming from the hole. He seemed frightened and kept yelling for help, but it didn't take long before the sound disappeared.
This scared me to death, they must have been killed by the Mirror Ghost.
I was very scared, afraid that the Mirror Ghosts would not be enough to kill them, and they would run out and take me back into the cave, so I wanted to run home immediately. But at this moment, I saw a figure come out of the cave. I thought it was the fourth child, but when he came out, it was clear that it was not the fourth child, but the ghost in the mirror...
When Jian Qin said this, Zhen Zhen couldn't help but interject: "Isn't the ghost in the mirror only appearing in the mirror?"
"It's not. He came out of the hole directly, without using a mirror at all."
"Do you remember what the Ghost of Hidden Mirror looked like?" I asked eagerly.
Jian Qin said seriously: "He is not as tall as the police uncle, but his face is very pale, and he is holding a small iron rod in his hand."
"Is he a man?" Zhen Zhen asked.
Yuqin nodded: "Well, he's a man, and he should be about the same age as his uncle!"
It seems that Jian Qin took another person as a ghost who hides the mirror. Although his expressive ability is limited and he can't clearly describe what the person who came out of the hole looks like, the ghost that hides the mirror we see doesn't look like a man no matter how you look at it. Moreover, this person may not have anything to do with ghosts when he walks out of the air-raid shelter during the day.
Although this person is not the ghost who hides the mirror, but he appeared after calling for help from the air-raid shelter. It must be related to the death of the fifth sister and brother in Wangcun. Maybe he is the murderer. It's a pity that Jian Qin couldn't describe his appearance clearly, otherwise it would be easier to deal with. Perhaps, I should take Jian Qin back to the police station and find someone to make him a puzzle of the suspect's appearance.
Just when I was thinking about whether I should bring Jian Qin back to the police station to do the puzzle immediately, Zhen Zhen kept asking him about the appearance of the mysterious man, and the answers he gave were similar to those just now, with vague features. I think even if I take him back to the police station, I might not be able to spell out the suspect's appearance.
"Could it be him..." Zhen Zhen muttered to herself with her brows furrowed, I asked her if she was thinking of something, she not only didn't answer me, she put her hand in my trouser pocket anyway.
I hurriedly shouted: "You are too arrogant, Jian Qin is a child! Can't you restrain yourself in front of him?"
"What's wrong with you!" She ignored me, took out my phone from my trousers pocket, and looked through the photo album.
She kept flipping through the photo album. Before I could figure out what she wanted to do, she took the phone and showed it to Jian Qin: "I found it, do you think it's this man?"
Jian Qin looked at the screen of the mobile phone seriously, and exclaimed for a moment, "It's him, it's him! He's the ghost who killed the fourth and the others!"
I don’t have the habit of saving prisoners’ photos. The photo albums on my phone are filled with photos of relatives, friends and colleagues, and most of them live in urban areas. How could they go to the bomb shelter in Wangcun
Confused, I rudely snatched the phone back from Zhen Zhen's hand, and checked who Jian Qin was talking about. When my eyes fell on the screen, I was immediately stunned, because the screen displayed Xiao Xiang's photo.
"How could it be him?" I muttered to the phone dully, then grabbed Jian Qin's thin shoulder and yelled at him in a roaring tone: "The person you saw that day was really him. Where is he now? Tell me, where is he now?"
Jian Qin burst into tears, obviously frightened by me. Zhen Zhen hurriedly pushed me away, picked up Jian Qin and turned her back to me, turned her head and scolded me: "Do you know what you are doing? He is just a child, he has only seen Xiao Xiang once, he has no way of knowing Where is Xiaoxiang now!"
She was right, Jian Qin had only seen Xiao Xiang once, and it was impossible to know where he was now. I forced myself to calm down, but soon my thoughts became confused again, because according to Jian Qin's description, Xiao Xiang was probably the murderer of the fifth sister and brother in Wang Village.
I couldn't accept this fact for a while, I went forward like I lost my mind and tried to grab Jian Qin, but was blocked by Zhen Zhen. Although she didn't let me get close to Jian Qin, I still shouted at him in a hostile tone: "You lied, everything you just said is a lie! If you know that the fourth and the others are in the dugout, why are they in the dugout? Don't tell anyone for a few days when you're missing!"
In my roar, Jian Qin hugged Zhen Zhen tightly and cried, Zhen Zhen suddenly turned around, slapped me fiercely, and scolded: "Calm down, he's just a child, look at you. What did you scare him into?"
Even though I was slapped with gold stars, it made me calm down a little. Though his mind was still very confused, he at least realized that anger would not solve the problem. I sat on the ground feebly and said to Zhen Zhen, "It's time for him to go to class, send him back!"
Zhen Zhen hugged Jian Qin and left without saying a word, and came back alone after a while, and said to me: "Jian Qin told me just now that he was very scared, because he kicked the football into the dugout, and he was afraid that everyone would throw the football into the air-raid shelter. All the blame was placed on him, so he never dared to speak out about it. Today, he told us about it because he felt that he was sorry for the fourth child and his brothers and sisters. In fact, he was in the reference room. I hesitated for a long time outside, not sure if I should tell us about this, if you hadn't chatted with him first, he probably wouldn't have the courage to say it."
I sat on the ground silently, did not answer her, she did not continue to speak, but sat down beside me, silent with me. We sat side by side and didn't say a word for a long time, until it was getting dark, and she asked me, "Does it hurt?"
I pointed to my cheek with about five finger marks and said, "What do you say, my face is swollen."
"Who told you to be so impulsive, it's not like the usual you at all." She gently stroked my red and swollen cheeks, the usual toughness disappeared, and only gentleness and charm were revealed in front of me.
At this moment, I put all my troubles behind me, hugged her tightly, and kissed her red lips. Although she was a little frightened, she did not resist. After a moment of hesitation, her hands fell softly on my back, responding to my hug...
Seeing profit can forget righteousness, seeing beauty can also forget friends. The wonderful kiss with Zhen Zhen made me regain my mood, put down Xiaoxiang's affairs for a while, stood up and said to her, "Let's go, let's go into the air-raid shelter and have a look."
"Go in now? It's already dark." She flushed slightly and gradually turned pale.
"Wang Xi didn't say that ghosts hiding mirrors won't appear in the air-raid shelter. I don't think there will be a lot of mirrors placed in the cave for no reason! Moreover, the cave is dark, and entering in the daytime is the same as entering now. ." I held her hand tightly and said softly, "If she does show up, I'll protect you too."
"Che, I've always been the only one to protect you." She gave me a disdainful look.
