Chapter 29 Feathers (2-in-1)
After learning the cruel and desperate truth, Li Jiahong was stunned for a long time, but when he came to his senses, he did not criticize his wife harshly. The fifteen years of recurring nightmares she fell into as a vegetative state had already repaid her for the crimes she committed when she was young and frivolous.
mistake.
Moreover, how could ordinary people living in a peaceful and prosperous age expect that the so-called mysterious rituals are real?
The ignorant are not innocent, but they should be innocent.
Li Jiahong comforted his wife and asked her to receive rehabilitation treatment in her hometown hospital. Fifteen years have taken away her wife's health and good looks. Without several years of treatment, she would not be able to get out of bed, walk, and live a normal life.
.
And he will continue to look for his child, even though the hope is slim.
So, Li Jiahong began to investigate the university clubs that his wife participated in back then. His fifteen years of experience in searching for orphans were not all in vain. At least it allowed him to develop an extremely keen ability to capture information and an excellent ability to investigate information.
Although he looks down and out now, he was once a top student from a prestigious school, so it is not difficult for him to use his brain.
After some investigation, Li Jiahong discovered that the club his wife participated in in college had been disbanded for a long time. After visiting his wife's former club members, he was shocked to find that the club members who participated in the mysterious ceremony were, without exception, the same as his wife's.
The same "accident" happened, but except for his wife, everyone else died.
After comparing people who had accidents, Li Jiahong found that these people had several things in common.
One, participated in the mysterious ritual of that year.
Second, those people all had accidents that happened when the children were three years old after they got married and had children.
Third, something happens to the adults and the children are missing.
Looking at the three information points summarized, Li Jiahong fell into deep thought and derived three core questions from these three key points.
What exactly was that mysterious ceremony?
If the ritual really attracted an unknown mysterious creature, why did that thing called Fugu only act when the child was three years old?
If you just want to take away the children, why kill the adults?
Li Jiahong was extremely puzzled. He searched the Internet, even returned to his alma mater to read the secret collections in the library, and visited famous teachers. He only found out what the origin of the creature named "Fu Gu" was.
According to fragmentary records in various classics and word-of-mouth rumors, Fugu is a sneaky creature that lives in another dimension. No one has seen its full face with their own eyes. They only know that it probably looks like a kind of rat-man. They
It seems to like raising the babies of all living things, and then bringing those babies back to its lair.
No one knows where they come from or why they raise their young.
If Li Jiahong wants to find his child, he must find a way to find Fu Gu, and this is not easy. Just when Xun Gu is at a loss, he accidentally discovers a strange "water character" in a missing person post on an online forum.
friend".
The netizen's online name seems to be based on his own name. It's a bit ridiculous. It's actually called "Lin Ling's Magic House". The other party left a message under such a serious missing person post, and the content seems to be offering help.
, in fact, it seems to be promoting its own store.
At the beginning, Li Jiahong also felt that this water friend was a liar, and his deception was very unprofessional.
But later, while browsing other posts on the forum to collect clues, he saw "Lin Ling's Magical House" one after another in other posts.
What’s interesting is that this netizen’s comments are different every time he posts, and he will patiently argue with other netizens. The other netizen obviously did not use a machine to send the group message, but more like typed it by his own hands. This time also made Li Jiahong angry.
I was a little impressed and thought: Even if the other person is a liar, at least he has proved that he is very perseverant and patient.
Until one day a while ago, Li Jiahong saw Lin Ling again in an almost sunken post. The difference was that this time Lin Ling was not arguing with netizens over the distance, but got a message called "Gloomy"
Thanks to the water friends of "Yun", the reply time was not too long ago, just a few days before the date.
I don’t know what “Gloomy Cloud” wants to thank the other party, it’s confusing, but this kind of reply is authentic enough. At least these two people must know each other offline.
This can't help but surprise Li Jiahong. He doesn't think this is a show, because the probability is too small. After all, scammers will not deliberately choose such unpopular posts for show. If he hadn't deliberately searched for information to collect information,
, maybe this post cannot be found.
Li Jiahong couldn't help but start to re-examine "Lin Ling's Magical House", so with the mentality of giving it a try, he returned to the missing person notice post that he first saw Lin Ling on, and sent it to the floor where the other person was.
asked a question: "How can you help find someone?"
After the news was sent out, Li Jiahong felt that his behavior was a bit ridiculous. He had always been the person who least believed in these things, but now he actually began to believe a person who spent a lot of time every day hanging out in online forums and was suspected of being a liar.
netizen.
He really went a little crazy looking for his child.
But who knows, within a few minutes, Li Jiahong received a reply from "Lin Ling's Magical House". He just glanced at the message and his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
Lin Ling's Magical Wonderful House: I will rent out some things here. If you are looking for children, the things will cost 50 a day.
"Looking for a child? How did he know that I was looking for a child? I have never used this account to post anything about finding a child in this forum." Li Jiahong was so confused that for a moment he seemed to feel a pair of children hidden in the darkness.
My eyes were peeping at him, but when I looked back, I saw that it was just an ordinary bad environment in a black Internet cafe.
Feeling nervous and panic welled up in his heart, and he did not dare to log in to that forum for several days, fearing that the messages that would pop up when he logged in were all replies to him from "Lin Ling's Magical Wonderful House", and he was afraid that he would not be able to log in to that forum again.
Tell the other person more information about themselves.
However, after a few days passed, he calmed down and when he logged into the forum account again, he found that "Lin Ling's Magical House" had not contacted him at all.
For some reason, he felt a little complicated after receiving this result.
After much thought, he decided to ask the other party a question: "Master, what is that thing you are talking about?"
Lin Ling did not answer his question directly on the post this time. Instead, he privately messaged him an address and told him that if he was sincere, he should come to the place on the address to find him.
After obtaining the address, Li Jiahong tried to search for the address on the map navigation, but found that the navigation had no record of this address at all.
Therefore, Li Jiahong decided to go there in person to find Lin Ling's magical house.
Of course he was 100% sincere about finding a child.
Li Jiahong stood in front of a small house in the forest surrounded by locust trees, looking at the two scrutinizing evil faces on the mahogany door. He calmed down, knocked on the door, and pushed the door open after receiving the permission of the person inside.
The lights in the house were bright, and when I stood in the house and looked at it, I realized that the house was not actually small, but rather spacious. All kinds of strange objects were listed on rows of shelves. The objects seemed to have no specific order and no price.
Label.
There were two people in the room, a young man lying on a rocking chair and playing with his cat. He was wearing casual clothes and had a comfortable expression, as if he was closing his eyes to relax. There was also a man about thirty years old, wearing red clothes, who seemed to be a store clerk. Just now
While packing the shelves, when the other party saw Li Jiahong entering the store, he greeted him with a smile.
"Hello sir, do you need anything?" the man asked with a smile.
Li Jiahong observed that the man in red in front of him was a bit unfamiliar and inexperienced in his etiquette as a clerk. He looked like he had just joined the profession. However, despite this, Li Jiahong still had an inexplicable feeling towards the clerk with a straight smile in front of him.
I always felt that his eyes were a bit scary and something was not normal.
Li Jiahong lowered his eyes slightly and said, "I'm here to see Master Lin Ling. I...I'm looking for my child."
"Master?" The man blinked, and then he seemed to have figured out something, and suddenly said, "Oh, you are looking for our boss."
"Wei Jiang, just ask the customers to come directly." At this moment, a voice came from the side of the coffee table in the corner of the room. Li Jiahong and the clerk in red looked and found the man who was lying on the rocking chair playing with his cat.
At some point, the young man quietly came to the coffee table to make tea.
"Yes, boss!" Hearing the young man's friendly and gentle voice, the clerk in red responded solemnly, as if he had heard an imperial edict.
At this time, Li Jiahong noticed that the clerk in red had subconsciously put his feet together and held a military salute, and guessed that the clerk in red might have been a soldier before.
And through the unusual behavior of the red-clothed clerk, Li Jiahong realized that the young man sitting in front of the coffee table making tea at this moment was the "master" he was looking for.
Because the master's appearance was so different from what he had imagined, Li Jiahong was stunned for a moment, and then regretted it.
Was he really deceived? And he was deceived by a little liar.
Thinking of this, Li Jiahong was a little annoyed, and almost turned around and left, but then he thought that since the other party could explain his situation right away on the Internet, he also felt that since he had come here, he had to clear up this doubt first.
"Please." Wei Jiang smiled and stretched out his hand, leading Li Jiahong to the front. Li Jiahong nodded with a stiff smile, followed Wei Jiang's steps, walked through the shelves, and walked towards Lin Ling with his head down.
While following Wei Jiang for a short distance, Li Jiahong suddenly noticed that the big man in front of him had a strange walking posture. The strange thing was not in his lower body, but in his upper body. There was always a bumpy and unsteady feeling in his upper body, as if he was walking.
He could fall down at any time.
"Does this person have a bad waist?" Li Jiahong secretly thought to himself, and then his eyes focused on the big man's thick waist. It was also at this time that he suddenly discovered that there was a pair of wooden shoes on the other person's waist.
Made of shackles!
Li Jiahong couldn't help but trembled with his legs, staggered, and almost fell to the ground. He suddenly had a terrible suspicion.
Could it be that this was a gangster's den for organ smuggling, and he was the one who was tricked into entering, and the shackles on Wei Jiang's waist were here to cuff him.
When he came to the young man with a warm smile and sat down, he looked at the steaming cup of tea. He always felt that there would be some ingredients in it that would make people drowsy, so he didn't dare to raise the cup or touch it.
Lin Ling smiled and said: "Sir, he must be the person who communicated with me online not long ago and wants to find the missing child."
Lin Ling's words made Li Jiahong slowly calm down his chaotic thoughts. As soon as the child was mentioned, Li Jiahong's thoughts returned to the beginning.
Li Jiahong: "...Yes, I just didn't expect you to be so young."
Lin Ling said with a smile: "I'm not young anymore, I just look young."
Li Jiahong forced himself to apologize, and then said: "You said you asked me to come to you, but I don't know how you can help me?"
