Mysterious Séancer: My Doll Can Really Show Its Power

Dream East Villa, Cang'er City.

Two police officers came over carrying hammers.

Lei Ming took the tongs from the officer next to him, picked up the ghost-faced doll from the ground, and put it into the evidence bag in Zhang Donglei's hand, saying, "Old Zhang, don't underestimate anything at the scene—"

Zhang Donglei casually replied, "I know, I know. Don't underestimate anything on site. Hmm? What's wrong with you?"

Lei Ming picked up the evidence bag and examined the ghost-faced doll inside carefully. "Old Zhang, this thing doesn't seem to be electric. There's no battery compartment or charging port."

"That means there's a battery cell or button battery hidden inside. There are many toys like that now, my son has one!" Zhang Donglei didn't take Lei Ming's words seriously.

Lei Ming turned and stared into his eyes without saying a word, making Zhang Donglei feel uneasy. "Captain Lei, what... what do you mean by this?"

Lei Ming asked, "Your son has one?"

Zhang Donglei nodded: "Yes, my son has one, I bought it for him!"

Lei Ming's face showed anger: "Then let me ask you this: this thing appeared in the victim's bedroom. The victim lived alone, a man in his fifties. Would he like to play with this kind of toy like your son?"

Zhang Donglei: "..."

Lei Ming glared at Zhang Donglei, who remained silent, and handed the evidence bag containing the ghost-faced doll to a police officer behind him, saying, "Go back and check the manufacturer of this toy."

"yes!"

A short while later, another police car pulled up outside the villa; the forensic doctor had arrived.

The forensic doctor from the Cang'er City police force was an experienced woman in her fifties named Wang Lan. Wearing a white coat, she greeted Lei Ming and Zhang Lan: "Team Leader Lei, Team Leader Zhang!"

"My colleagues all look a bit off. Is the situation serious?"

bad?

Lei Ming and Zhang Donglei exchanged a glance, neither of them knowing whether they should use that word to describe the scene in the upstairs bedroom.

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Wang Lan pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's nothing. What kind of scene haven't I seen in this line of work? I've seen several corpses dismembered into pieces. Go ahead and tell me!"

Zhang Donglei lowered his head and remained silent. Lei Ming pointed upstairs and said, "Sister Wang, go see for yourself."

Wang Lan nodded: "Okay, I'll go up and take a look first."

Watching Wang Lan's retreating figure, Lei Ming hesitated for a moment, then specifically added, "Um, Sister Wang, there are buckets prepared upstairs."

Wang Lan waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I don't need that thing. You guys are still too young—"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Lan had already reached the door of the master bedroom on the second floor.

After seeing the sliced ​​"raw man," one second, two seconds, three seconds...

A forensic doctor is still a forensic doctor; he didn't vomit, but his expression changed slightly.

This made Lei Ming and Zhang Donglei downstairs feel somewhat displeased.

Upstairs, Wang Lan was examining the victim, while downstairs, two police officers began smashing the ground with sledgehammers.

boom!

"eighty!"

boom!

"eighty!"

boom!

"eighty!"

With a few hammer blows, a loud "boom" resounded, sending shattered stone chips flying and dust billowing, revealing a sealed basement to everyone!

At the same time, a strong, putrid smell wafted over!

They found a ladder, and two police officers, wearing masks and using flashlights, carefully climbed down.

The basement was pitch black, with no light at all, and the only source of light was the flashlights of two police officers.

The furnishings inside were very simple, with some old tables and chairs, several basins of different sizes on the floor, and two buckets in the corner.

Because the smell was so pungent that even wearing a mask was unbearable, the two police officers had to cover their mouths and noses as they slowly explored inside.

Suddenly, one of the police officers shuddered as he saw a skeleton in the beam of his flashlight!

"Zhang Yang! I have something to report!"

Upon hearing the sound, another officer immediately turned around, and the two slowly approached the skeleton.

It was a human-shaped skeleton, without any flesh or blood. The skeleton was very small, about the size of a human child of six or seven years old.

The two officers got too close, *smack*!

A police officer named Zhang Yang suddenly kicked something. When the light shone on it, he saw that it was a notebook.

With their notebooks in hand, the two officers approached the skeleton. There, they discovered four other skeletons of similar size next to the small one.

One of them was a little older, probably around eight or nine years old.

Five small skeletons were huddled together, and it was clear that these five children must have been terrified before they died.

The two officers were speechless for a moment; they could hardly imagine the despair these five children had endured before their deaths.

After carefully checking the rest of the basement and finding nothing else, the two returned to the first floor of the villa.

"How is it?"

Faced with Lei Ming's question, both officers remained silent. Zhang Yang then handed the notebook he had found to Lei Ming.

Looking at the expressions of the two police officers, Lei Ming seemed to understand a little. He opened the notebook in his hand, which was filled with names, phone numbers, addresses, and amounts. Some names were marked "buy", some were marked "sell", and some only had addresses without names or contact information. These were marked "abduct".

Lei Ming counted them: there were forty-seven "buy" and "steal" characters in total, and forty-two "sell" characters.

He continued flipping through the notebook and found that the handwriting in the back had suddenly become crooked and messy, with many typos, and even a lot of pinyin and strange symbols. He needed to use some associative thinking to translate it into something he could understand.

"That guy left his notebook behind, so I decided to secretly hide it and not give it to him. Who told him not to feed us properly?"

"That person took the calf away today, and we've lost another friend."

"That person is so fierce. He only lets us eat very little bit of food every day, but when he brought me here, he clearly said he would give me lots of good food."

"Another friend left today, it was Honghong."

"I miss my mom, I miss my dad, I miss him so much... If my mom were here, she would definitely give me lots of food."

"Yeah, Dad will probably hit that person."

"Many days have passed, and only seven companions remain."

"Chengcheng is so kind. He hid something and secretly gave it to me to eat."

"When can I go home? I miss home, I miss my mom, I miss my dad..."

"Chengcheng got beaten today because he cried too loudly. The person hit him hard, and Chengcheng cried even harder, so the person hit him harder, and Chengcheng cried even harder. That person..."

"Chengcheng left today too, that's good, he won't get beaten anymore, but I won't see him again either."

"There are only six companions left."

"Lingling was taken away, when is it my turn?"

"That person is filling the stairwell with dirt, but the five of us are still here. Is he not letting us out?"

"It's so dark, and the stairs are blocked. How is he going to bring us food?"

"Oh, he's not bringing us food anymore."

"I'm so hungry."

"Hungry."

"Hungry."

"Hungry."

"..."

The crooked handwriting ends here, and there's nothing more after that.

Lei Ming blinked rapidly, his eyes red and swollen, and tilted his head back to take a deep breath, trying his best to keep the tears welling up in his eyes from falling.

He could hardly imagine what kind of despair the child, who had only written the word "hunger" in his notebook for several days in a row, had experienced during those days.

Beside him, Zhang Yang said with his head down, "Team Leader Lei, we found the skeletons of five children who look to be between five and eight years old down there."

"It's all bones now, not a trace of flesh or blood left."

"There were no external injuries to the bones. The preliminary assessment is that the five children either suffocated or starved to death."

Lei Ming couldn't hold back any longer. He slammed the notebook into Zhang Donglei's arms, turned around, and walked outside. "I'm going to get some fresh air. Don't follow me!"

However, he had only taken two steps when suddenly, a woman's crying came from the second floor of the villa!

Lei Ming immediately ran up and saw Sister Wang Lan, the most experienced forensic doctor in Cang'er City, kneeling on the ground in the bedroom where the crime occurred. She was examining the victim's body and looked panicked and helpless. She seemed to be in extreme fear and was sobbing incessantly!

After rubbing his eyes slightly, Lei Ming asked, "Sister Wang, what... what happened?"

Wang Lan turned her head, trembling all over, and said, "Forty-six cuts, forty-seven pieces..."

Forty-six cuts?

Forty-seven pieces!

Lei Ming glanced at the brutally dismembered corpse and immediately understood what Wang Lan meant!

"Haha, hahahaha!"

Lei Ming burst into laughter, two streams of hot tears flowing down his cheeks. Looking at the bloodied corpse, his eyes blazing with fury, he roared, "Fine!"

"This is fucking amazing!"

"Well cut!"

"Great! Bookmark this!"

After venting his anger with a series of curses, Lei Ming wiped away his tears and asked, "Sister Wang, have you found anything else?"

Wang Lan, who had been sobbing, suddenly burst into tears. Between sobs, she pointed at "Wu Tian" in front of her and cried, "He...he's not dead!"

"He was stabbed forty-six times, cut into forty-seven connected pieces, but he's still alive! He didn't die! He didn't die!"

By the end, Wang Lan was hoarse and exhausted!

In an instant, Lei Ming was stunned into silence!

Immediately afterward, Zhang Donglei, who had just finished reading the notes and ran up with an angry expression and tears in his eyes, exclaimed in surprise, "Wh-what?!"

......

Zhongzhou, Yundu Road Pedestrian Street.

"Hello everyone! This is Zhongzhou New Street Interview!"

"Today we've come to Yundu Road, the most bustling street in Zhongzhou, to randomly interview the young men and women here!"

"Wow! I see a really handsome and refined guy!"

"Camera! Quick, keep up!"

Yang Ning, dressed in all white with a white tote bag slung over his shoulder, was strolling leisurely down the pedestrian street when suddenly a pretty girl holding a microphone appeared in front of him. She smiled and asked, "You're so handsome, young man! Can we do a street interview?"

Yang Ning smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "No problem."

The girl exclaimed with a swooning look, "Wow! You look even more handsome when you smile! What do you think is your greatest strength?"

After saying that, she added, "Besides being handsome!"

Yang Ning thought for two seconds, then smiled and said, "My greatest strength is probably my kindness."

"Oh?"

The girl's eyes lit up. "Could you give me an example, handsome?"

Yang Ning raised his head slightly, the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose gleaming in the sunlight, and his smile was extremely sunny.

"For example, I had a dream in which I and forty-six other children of the same age were kidnapped."

"After we escaped, the other forty-six children couldn't wait to stab the human trafficker who had kidnapped us."

"But it's different for me. I thought, how painful must it be for someone to be stabbed forty-six times? They could die..."

"I can't bear to see such human tragedies happen, so..."

At this point, Yang Ning looked directly at the cameraman behind the girl he was interviewing on the street, his lips curving upwards, his smile growing even brighter—

"So, after he was stabbed forty-six times, I gave him a second chance at life."

The girl being interviewed: "..."

After a two-second silence, the girl looked utterly embarrassed. "Uh, okay, buddy, that was a really lame joke, hahaha!"

She was about to ask something else when Yang Ning bowed slightly to the camera, smiled faintly, and turned to leave.

Yang Ning's smile completely captivated the girl. When she came to her senses and tried to find Yang Ning's figure in white again, she only saw the bustling crowd on Yundu Road.

In the vast sea of ​​people, where can one still find that white-clad figure?
