Monster Catching Daddy

Chapter 224 Yellow Hair and Field Eels

"Oh, Shen Chong."

Liu Xianglin responded blankly, but didn't say anything else, but threw away the cigarette butt, lit another one, turned his head and still stared at the fork, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

He read Shen Chong's name all over again, but he still couldn't seem to match him with his old acquaintance in his mind.

This is what happens when people's minds become stagnant.

The specific manifestation is outside, that is, looking for a mobile phone with a mobile phone in hand, or seeing acquaintances and friends, which should be recognized at a glance, but the thoughts in the mind are floating in other places.

At this time, Liu Xianglin was like this, and many people in the town came to chat with him like this.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Chong didn't say anything more, and tried smoking a dull cigarette again.

He couldn't bear it without taking two bites. He hadn't touched this thing for a long time, and his eyes were swollen with tears.

Shen Chong quietly threw the cigarette butt that was only a quarter burnt to the side, and continued to sit side by side with Liu Xianglin with his arms around his knees, staring in the direction of the fork in a daze.

Looking beyond the dense bushes, at the end of the line of sight, you can vaguely see a corner of the teaching building pasted with emerald green mosaic tiles.

Kicking the dog who came up quietly like a thief, trying to pick up his unfinished cigarette butt, Shen Chong stood up, waved his hand to greet the dog to leave.

He didn't take two steps, when a voice came from behind, "Dude, thank you for coming to see me."

When Shen Chong turned his head, the man looked straight at him, and he recovered a little bit of his spirit inside, he could be considered to be right with him in his heart.

Ever since, Shen Chong sat back and patted Liu Xianglin on the shoulder, "My condolences."

Liu Xianglin took a deep breath and exhaled a burst of white smoke, "I can't mourn, brother! I can't get over this hurdle in my heart! I regret it so much..."

He started again.

No matter who came to talk to him, he would return to this routine without saying a word.

It was the same for the people in the town, and it was the same for Shen Chong who drove back from Shudu not far away.

He is possessed.

These words in his mouth, Shen Chong had already heard a lot of them when he inquired with people in Linjiang Town before.

The man babbled and finished reading according to the scriptures, and then began to cover his face and wipe his tears, no matter what Shen Chong said to him again, he just hid his head under his elbow and kept shaking his head.

Shen Chong is not good at coaxing people, he sighed helplessly when he saw this, "Oh, I will come and see you later."

He got up again and walked towards the school along the side road. The crying behind him became louder and louder, and became hoarse and harsh in a few seconds.

It was clear that the sky was clear and the sun was hanging high, but the voice from behind made Shen Chong's heart as cold as deep winter, and the crying and crying were like a bone-scraping knife, scraping repeatedly at the bottom of his heart.

Eleven or twelve years ago, what a hero Liu Xianglin was with the green dragon and white tiger carrying a baton.

Now, the loss of his beloved son has turned him into a complete drunk and foolish half-lunatic.

This is probably one of the greatest pains in the world.

Shen Chong was filled with emotions, and before coming here, he wanted to stimulate his emotions more deeply.

But after feeling it once, he felt that the feeling was too deep.

One person and one dog walked slowly on the dirt road.

"Boss, that person is so miserable."

"Yeah, it's miserable."

Shen Chong nodded, carefully inspecting the roadside ridges.

When the case first happened a year ago, no one knew what was going on, and after twelve months, it was even more impossible for him to find anything by trying his luck aimlessly.

The intuition that he had given high hopes for did not move at all. This thing is like a lottery, whether there is or is not, it will not be easily transferred by his will.

His emotions are in place now, but the amount of information acquired by Invincible Memory from the outside is far from enough, and it is impossible to form an analytical data model in the subconscious that is sufficient to support comprehensive judgments.

To use the current popular saying to explain it, there are insufficient big data samples and there is no way to analyze it.

Gouzi is slacking off, it doesn't have the ability to activate the demon element, and it walks lazily in front with its tail up.

Shen Chong stared at its butt, and thought to himself, if I can add Gouzi's three-fold ability to transform demonic powers of smell, hearing and vision, I can get more details from the surrounding environment, and probably can derive the memory of invincibility Strengthen your intuition to new heights, right?

Liang Zai felt that the chrysanthemum was cool for a while, and turned his head with his tail between his legs, "Boss, what do you want to do?"

Shen Chong turned his face away, "It's nothing."

The sensing elements for collecting information and the computing center for analyzing data are not in the same system, and the coordination rate is not enough, there is no way!
Liu Xianglin was no longer here when he returned to the intersection of Linjiang Town. Today he returned home early, which is rare. Shen Chong didn't bother him anymore, but drove to Panlong Township and Zhongxing Township.

He really couldn't find out where the missing child in Panlong Township was lost, so he just walked around casually, and then went straight to Zhongxing Township.

Because there are witnesses this time, the place is much easier to find.

After spending 100 yuan and asking an informed villager to lead the way, Shen Chong found the place along the path in the field.

"Brother Shen, this is the place. At that time, Brother Cai rushed over from the canteen over there with a stick, and in just two dazzling hours, the baby was gone."

Shen Chong nodded, "Thank you."

He looked around, pointed to the field and said, "The rice in this paddy field was very lush at that time?"

"Yes."

"Oh."

Shen Chong suddenly said: "The time is wrong!"

The buddy leading the way asked blankly, "What?"

Shen Chong shook his head, "Nothing."

After the people left, he squatted by the field and began to recount the time.

I saw in the dossier that the crime happened two years ago. When calculating the time, he habitually calculated it as twelve months a year, ignoring the fact that the exact time of the first crime was the autumn harvest, which was September. , and not really exactly two years ago.

When I calculated at home, because I was preconceived and I was too nervous, I made a mistake and calculated more than six months without paying attention.

So now to estimate accurately, the time interval between the first and the second incident should be close to ten months.

The second and third times are exactly eight months.

The third time was when Liu Xianglin's son had an accident, and it is now exactly one year and twelve months.

This way the timeline is messed up.

According to his previous thinking, he assumed that the perpetrator was a psychic or a monster, and every time he upgraded, he needed to kill a child.

Could it be that I have to overthrow all my thoughts?

In fact, there is no pattern in the three cases, isn't it the same?

Isn't that cheating?
At this moment, there was the sound of a motorcycle chug at the end of the path, and in a blink of an eye a motorcycle turned around the path and came straight, stopped beside Shen Chong, and jumped off a young man with a weathered but joyful face.

"I said you guys, it's too much! You don't tell me when you go home! You have a lot of skills! People in the city look down on old brothers!"

The young man rushed in front of Shen Chong in three steps at a time, and punched him hard on the shoulder.

Shen Chong stood up, and punched the opponent's shoulder heavily, "Bah, am I busy with work?"

The person who came was Huang Mao, Shen Chong's former brother.

Among their group of people, Shen Chong and Huang Mao, nicknamed Huang Mao, had the closest relationship.

In the past, he liked to dye his hair shit yellow, and the bandit yellow hair is perfect.

But if they hang out together, Shen Chong can be admitted to the sports school with a little refreshment and study.

Huang Mao has no other options at all. He didn't even finish high school, so he stayed in his hometown to pick up his Lao Tzu's class and do some small farming.

Huang Mao's work is fairly reliable. Although he didn't go out to make a living, he is still considered a wealthy family in Pailou Town.

"Go, go, what serious business do you have? I heard that you are inquiring about the disappearance of the child. Shouldn't you be wearing epaulets after not seeing you for a year?"

"That's not true. Don't be angry with me, Huang Mao, I plan to find you when I'm almost busy."

Huang Mao rolled his eyes, "Why am I angry at you? I'm not a kid who doesn't know anything. You've been out for so many years, and now I'm clearer than you in this place. Why don't you ask me for help? I'm trying to find someone else to inquire about it. You see, I get the wind, and I will find you in minutes when I ride over."

"You can help a fart, that's all right, close the stall today, and go to your house for dinner."

"Then I'll call now to ask my wife to order two more dishes."

Half an hour later, the two of them and their dog walked into a small courtyard house on the street of Pailou Town.

The old one-story house of Huang Mao's family has long since been demolished and replaced with a small two-story western-style building, and there is still a domestic pickup truck parked in the yard.

Shen Chong's car can only be parked outside the gate, so there is no need to be afraid of being posted a note.

The two buddies moved chairs to make tea in the yard, chatted while eating melon seeds, Liang Zai obediently lay at Shen Chong's feet, and didn't provoke the one that was tied to the corner of the yard and was very capable of beating at first glance. big dog.

"Tell me, what are you doing now? Why did you suddenly inquire about the case? I remember you said that you were working as a security guard? Your car is not bad, is it for a rich woman?"

"roll roll roll!"

Huang Mao couldn't control his mouth and heart, so he started talking again.

Damn, which pot doesn't open and which pot is lifted, Shen Chong kicked him, and Huang Mao hid aside.

The grandson didn't know about Xinxin's affairs, but he hit it right.

Shen Chong returned to the topic, "I'm just asking about the disappearance of the three children. As for why you want to ask, don't ask too much."

Huang Mao understood, "Oh, speaking of Liu Xianglin, it was miserable. We all followed him to look for it for a long time, and turned Linjiang Town and our town upside down. Some people said that he was kidnapped, who knows. "

Shen Chong shook his head, "It should not have been abducted."

"I think so too. We actually don't agree with the statement that the police station closed the case, but there's nothing we can do about it. The police station can't just focus on this matter without doing anything."

Shen Chong continued to nod, "Anyway, I think there is something hidden about this matter, but I can't tell you in detail now. By the way, let your baby stop running around these few days, and we will talk about it after the limelight has passed. Someone will pick up your baby after school, right?" ?”

Huang Mao hummed, "My dad picks it up every day, and school should be over soon."

"You have to keep an eye on the Ching Ming holiday the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. By the way, I have something to tell you about your house..."

"Don't tell me first, I don't want to hear it, talk to me after I'm done."

Shen Chong immediately interrupted him, because when his predecessor left home last year, he asked Huang Mao to look after the old house for him.

Now he mentions that most of them are related to that group of unlucky relatives.

The house doesn't care about the money, the money is small, so you don't feel bad for nothing.

"Ah, okay."

When it was time to eat, Huang Mao's old father took the baby back home.

This baby has perfectly inherited Huang Mao's talent for reading. It is really difficult to do simple addition and subtraction. She entered school late, and only entered the first grade when she was almost eight years old.

Stupid is a bit stupid, but he is very pleasing, with a sweet mouth, one Uncle Shen on the left, and another Uncle Shen screaming.

Amused, Shen Chong took out the six red notes from his wallet and sold them, which made Huang Mao very embarrassed.

At the dinner table, old man Huang scolded Huang Mao.

It turned out that this afternoon Huang Mao was supposed to ride a bicycle to the Eel Pond to disinfect it with quicklime, but he ignored the pool and directly chased Shen Chong to Zhongxing Township by bicycle.

When the brothers came back and sat down to chat, he completely forgot about it.

Shen Chong hurriedly took the blame, saying that it was his fault, "Uncle Huang, don't be angry, I will escort him after dinner!"

Uncle Huang explained to Shen Chong embarrassingly, "I'm not targeting you, Shen Chong. It's really troublesome to raise aquatic products. Alas, if you are half as reliable as this brat, I can rest assured I have enjoyed my retirement, but now I am tormenting my old bones enough."

Shen Chong sighed, "I envy Uncle Huang, and I envy Huang Mao, I... oh..."

Thinking of the situation of Shen Chong's family, the people at the table sighed again.

After dinner, the two of them drove to Huang's farm with their dog. Shen Chong didn't dare to share his hands casually, so he stood by the pond and watched Huang Maoquan sprinkle quicklime into the pond by the feel of his hand.

While working, Huang Mao subconsciously gave Shen Chong science popularization, "Hey, every year just after winter and spring, this eel is easy to get sick. By the end of this year, I will save some money and repair the greenhouse. Next year I will use the book That set of plastic greenhouses is much better for overwintering.”

Shen Chong asked subconsciously, "Then how do you say the wild eels survive the winter outside?"

Huang Mao curled his lips, "How can I live? I will get into the mud at the end of October and pretend to be dead. I will come out for activities after the spring heats up."

A flash of lightning flashed across Shen Chong's mind, and he was instantly clear.

Fuck I made a mistake!

He claims to be an expert in animal husbandry, but all the breeding materials he read before are basically routine routines such as chickens, ducks, fish, cattle, sheep and pigs.

He didn't think about shrimp, crab and eel, and he didn't think about wintering!
The first child victim was in September.

Then, the eel monster should have just been born at that time, about July and August of that year when it was enlightened, and it hurt people when it was promoted for the first time in September.

But at this time, the ranks of the eel demon are still low, and they are not completely divorced from their animal nature.

At the end of October, it stops eating completely and enters a state of dormancy for the winter. It resumes its activities after the spring heats up and continues to evolve into a monster, further breaking away from the living habits of ordinary eels.

It doesn't do it until July of the next year, it doesn't pretend to be dead for the winter in the second year, and it does it in March for the third time.

This makes sense, and the timing is completely connected.

There was an interval of ten months between the first time it hurt people and the second time it hurt people. In the middle five or six months, it fell asleep during the coldest season, and its active time was actually only four months.

The second wounding was also advanced, and it took eight months to complete the evolution of Yao Yuan, until the third time when he advanced again a year ago.

According to the law of the natural growth of monsters and monsters, the time interval for its fourth advancement, that is, the fourth time of hurting people should be between twelve and sixteen months.

Shen Chong looked down at the tumbling eels in the pond, and then recalled the pictures on the Skynet surveillance, and he had a plan in mind.

No wonder the dog can only smell the smell of aquatic products, because that is a eel demon!
As for why it can hide so well, because it can drill in mud, and it is likely to change its size!
"Huangmao, thank you for this, I have to leave first, you must remember to tell your baby not to run around!"

"Hey wait..."

Huang Mao raised his hand and scratched his head, "You sent me back, what the hell!"

Gouzi followed Shen Chong, and after getting into the car, Shen Chong said, "We're back to the camera."

Gouzi asked, "Why?"

"Do you want to eat grilled rice field eel?"

"miss you!"

"Let's turn those fields upside down!"

"What the fuck eel monster! Boss, we need to buy some cumin and chili noodles."
