The Underworld Detective

After I rescued the child, I was frozen and shaking all over my body. I had hypothermia when I soaked my body at this temperature. I shaken and said to Huang Xiaotao: “Clothes... clothes off...”

They hurried forward and stripped me and the boy of their wet clothes. Song Xingsheng took off his coat and put it on me. Huang Xiaotao also took off his coat and put it on the child.

The child's mother came running over, holding the child and crying, and said, "Thank you, thank you, you are all my saviors! ”

I was wrapped in the white trench coat of Song Xingxing. I could not speak. I saw that Song Xingxing's face was complicated. There was both blame and helplessness, but in this situation, he did not say anything.

Huang Xiaotao said to the mother: “It's okay, go to the hospital, it's so cold to have a fever. ”

When the boy was held up by his mother, he suddenly said, "Mom, there's a water ghost grabbing my foot under the water. ”

And as soon as we heard that, we looked at each other, and I said, "Are you sure it's a person? ”

The little boy nodded and his mother shouted in horror: "Don't be ridiculous! ”

I rushed, "Go to the hospital, don't delay! ”

Mother left thankfully, I was exhausted and sat on the floor, and a few people came to me and asked me how I was doing, and I said, "It's okay, it's okay.” I am cheerful and bloodthirsty, and I am not sick from this cold.

The scene just happened so suddenly, now that I think about it, the ice shell seemed weaker than anywhere else, and just after my head went into the water, I saw something underwater, but the water was so cloudy, I couldn't be sure.

Based on my experience and speculation, there may have been a case of dumping here, the lake froze in the winter, and a hole was drilled to throw people in, and it was about a month later, when the body was long gone from adulthood, after all, fish and shrimp under the water needed food in winter.

Such cases have not occurred before, but have not occurred in Nanjiang City, and some gangsters in the northeast are said to like to do so.

I said my thoughts, Huang Xiaotao frowned: “The water temperature is so low, the difficulty of salvaging is that sending divers can't support it for long, we need to figure out how to salvage it, otherwise it's a waste of manpower. ”

Sun Bingxin asked: "Want to go to the hydrology bureau and borrow some equipment to see what's underwater? ”

I waved: “Don't bother, Ice Heart, go buy two bottles of drinks, buy another tennis racket or badminton racket, some rope to tie things up, a sturdy fishing line, pick up another stone on the way back... yes, buy me another dress, it's too cold. ”

Wang Dali went courageously with Sun Bingxin himself. I sat there shaking constantly. Song Xingxing scolded with heartfelt grief: "Young Master, next time this happens, don't go up yourself, I'm nearby. ”

I laughed, “How could I not see? ”

“Oh, you!” Song Xingxing shook his head.

“By the way, can you contact the Knife God? I have something to ask him.” I said.

“Does it matter? I'll call him later. ”

After waiting for a while, Sun Bingxin and Wang Dali came back with a big bag. Sun Bingxin bought me a hot drink with great care. After drinking it, I felt much more comfortable. I thanked her.

Get dressed, I start to prepare, I cut one bottle in half, two bottle caps open, go through with nylon wire, and tie the heavy stuff on the other bottle.

A simple underwater listener was done, and it was actually a use of hearing bone resolution, and then I tied a tennis racket to my foot with a rope and approached the hole carefully. Honestly, I almost fell in, and now I'm a little furious.

As I approached the hole, I threw the bottle with the heavy object in it, straightened the nylon thread, and fastened half the bottle on the other end to the right ear so I could hear the underwater.

Under a sturdy ice shell, it was not calm at all. Some fish were swimming around, and the water fluctuated constantly. It took me a while to adapt to this technique for the first time, and I slowly got underwater images in my mind.

I kept pulling the nylon wire with my hand, like a string, vibrating the other end at the bottom of the water to produce echoes.

I closed my eyes and listened, and there seemed to be something human underwater, and there was a cage-like object around it, and of course, my impression was blurred, but I could be sure that it was a person.

Finally, I put the tools away and said, "Somebody get it, there's a body underwater! ”

Half an hour later, a salvage team was dispatched from a nearby station. We asked all the surrounding crowds to retreat outside the lake. Huang Xiaotao asked Wang to help, and the two stopped along the lake for a circle of security.

The water below was very cold and the diver had only a thin rubber coat on him that could not keep him cold. He swallowed several pieces of chocolate, filled a large mouthful of hot water, then put on a breathing apparatus and jumped into the hole with a rope in his hand.

We waited anxiously next to each other and suddenly the rope was tightened and the people on the shore yelled, "Pull! ”

Everyone pulled the rope up. The diver came up first. He was frozen, not much better than I was just now. The person on the shore took him to the small tent next to him to warm him up.

Then, the ice shell cracked a huge chunk and a huge object was dragged out. It was a cage made of willows, with large holes, wrapped in a middle-aged man in a suit, his hands and feet tied, and the whole person tied up hard.

After leaving the water, his body quickly formed a thin layer of ice that adhered to the ice shell.

Sun Bing was surprised: “What is that? ”

I wondered: "It feels like the bamboo cage used in rural areas to transport pigs... immersed in pig cages!? ”

There is no doubt that this is the ancient lynching - immersion in a pig cage, but this lynching is often used to punish unwieldy women and has never been heard of for use against men.

With the appearance of the body, the people around the shore shore shouted, it was neither cold nor blocked. I suggested going back to the station for an autopsy, and Huang Xiaotao said to the salvage team: “Thank you, brothers, please send the body back to the station! ”

When we followed the car back to the city hall and moved the body, I saw Zheng standing at the door. On a cold day, he was still dressed in a suit of leather shoes. I thought he had come to count us down and confessed to guilt. “I'm so sorry, you won't be safe at the beginning of the year. ”

Zheng Zheng said positively: “I've heard all about the situation. I really didn't expect to find the body today. It's also the first time that Nanjiang City has broken the sky. If you need help, just say it. ”

I said, "Thank you. Our task force can handle it. ”

“Well, I'll be in the office. You can come to me anytime. ”

When he was leaving, I called him and asked him, "Zheng Bureau, there's something I'd like to ask you. Twenty years ago, Uncle Sun was in charge of a wife-killing alliance. Have you heard of it? ”
