Madness of the Heart

Chapter 26 Demon Hunting (26)

Yang Nan Ke Ruo is still alive and should be 27 years old this year.

Three years ago, he lived in Lucheng, a small city near the border in the north, far away from Los Angeles. He once attended a third-rate university in the capital city of his hometown. After graduating, he returned to Lucheng to find a leisurely job and found a house in the center of the city. His parents Yang Juncheng and Huang Xia paid the down payment. Five-year-old sister Yang Yan supports the monthly payment.

With the help of his family, Yang Nanke had a good life. Before the age of 24, he had several girlfriends, but they didn’t last long. Huang Xia was nagged by Huang Xia as soon as he returned to his parents’ house.

The Yang family is not a rich and noble family, but Huang Xia and Yang Jun have stable jobs in Chengdu, and their income is above the middle of Lucheng. Yang Nanke, as the child of the family, grew up spoiled, unable to listen to training, and became angry as soon as he was trained. After parting ways with his girlfriend again, he quarreled with Huang Xia at the dinner table, threw his chopsticks and left, and left the sentence “Don’t **** trouble me again” in the corridor.

Huang Xia was also angry, and it was useless for Yang Juncheng and Yang Yan to appease them.

Yang Yan suggested to deal with it cold first. Anyway, the younger brother has a house, work and income, and he can’t be hungry. The family will be separated for a period of time. The younger brother will naturally come back if he wants to understand.

Half a month later, Huang Xia missed her son, but after a call was made, Yang Nanke’s cell phone was down. She pulled Yang Juncheng hurriedly to the community where Yang Nanke was located, took the spare key to open the door, and found that the tables, chairs and sofas were covered with gray cloth, which had long lost the breath of life.

Huang Xia panicked immediately. The couple went to Yang Nanke’s company to inquire, and the person in charge was surprised, “Yang Nanke had resigned ten days ago and said that he wanted to see the scenery he hadn’t seen before. Hey, it’s just resignation and travel. The young people have no sense of responsibility and are impatient. I just want to see the world. Why, don’t you guys know?”

Knowing that Yang Nanke was going to travel, not something went wrong, Yang Juncheng relaxed a little, but Huang Xia was still frightened and she shed tears, “I shouldn’t have quarreled with Ke Er, it’s all my fault. He must have quarreled with me.” He was in a bad mood before going on a trip. He is alone, what should he do if something goes wrong on the road?”

Yang Juncheng persuaded Huang Xia to go home. The couple did not have the awareness of calling the police. They were still unable to contact Yang Nanke until a month later, so they went to the police station to report to the police with Yang Yan.

Yang Nanke was traveling and severing contact with his family on his own. In fact, he did not comply with the conditions for filing a case. However, no matter which line in a small city, the operability is relatively high.

With the help of the Yang family, the police began investigating and determined that after Yang Nanke resigned from the company, he traveled by car. The last time he left his identity information was in a village 900 kilometers away from Lucheng.

The Yang family begged the police to continue the investigation, but in this case, further investigation is likely to be a waste of police force. Finally, the police collected Yang Nanke’s DNA information at Yang Nanke’s home.

It was this missing person’s DNA information that determined who the residual blood stains in the basement of Hou Cheng’s house came from.

There is a picture of Yang Nanke on the internal system of the police. He is a fair and beautiful young man.

Xiao Yuan passed the photo to Mingshu who was still in Qingyue Village. Mingshu found Hou Ximei and Wang Youqun, and both nodded, “It’s him! I saw him!”

After learning from Xiao Yuan that his melon field had been opened, Hou Cheng’s mood became very unstable.

There is hard evidence that he still refuses to admit that he killed Yang Nanke.

“Why do you say that I killed someone? Because of that bit of blood?” Hou Cheng called Yang Nanke “Little Dragon”, which is probably the pseudonym that Yang Nanke used to travel by car. “Xiaolong lives in my house and helps me clean up the basement. After he broke his skin and shed a little blood, you think I killed him? You can go to Qingyue Village and ask, someone must have seen him leave my house at that time! I didn’t kill anyone!”

In Hou Ximei’s testimony, Yang Nanke did leave Hou Cheng’s house one morning.

But this does not prove that Hou Cheng is innocent.

Hou Cheng could deliberately let Yang Nanke leave. When Yang Nanke walked out of Qingyue Village from the sight of the villagers, he would catch up quietly and bring Yang Nanke back with a car for a reason he had planned in advance.

Hou Cheng’s family was originally in the corner of Qingyue Village. Yang Nanke was sitting on a tricycle. As long as it was well shielded, it was easy to avoid everyone’s sight.

Xiao Yuan observed Hou Cheng for a while, and suddenly the topic changed, “Well, let’s not talk about Yang Nanke for the time being, let’s talk about your parents first.”

Hou Cheng’s face became extremely ugly, “You are not qualified to disturb their rest!”

“Then what qualifications do you have to bury them in the melon fields?” Xiao Yuan said: “The government protects the burial tombs in the past, but this does not mean that you can dig out the bones buried in the melon fields and bury them in the melon fields. .”

Hou Cheng gasped, “They are my parents. I can bury wherever I want! Tombs are too far away from me, I can’t feel them. It’s nice to be buried in the field, so close to me. I work every day. Seeing them, they also look at me, bless my melon fields have a good harvest!”

Xiao Yuan said: “I have never seen a filial person like you.”

These words obviously stimulated Hou Cheng, and Hou Cheng’s eyes burst into light, “Of course! I love my parents. I always feel that they are still with me. I am not married and have no children. I stay with them day and night, of course. He is the most filial person in the world!”

A person who thinks he has the most filial piety.

A person who doesn’t care about the village elder’s father.

Hou Cheng and Hou Padar, an unimaginable motive that complies with Hou Cheng’s behavioral logic faintly appeared.

Xiao Yuan had already grasped this point and asked, “So for you, don’t people who have no filial piety deserve to die?”

Hou Cheng was immersed in a strong emotion of self-appreciation, and said loudly: “Not filial to your parents is the greatest sin! Not only **** it, but also slashed!”

Xiao Yuan’s heart sank.

Hou Pad may have been killed because of unfilial piety, and Yang Nanke was killed because of unfilial piety.

Some people deserve to die.

The heart of the tomb is not only “hunting demon” in the book, in reality it has also raised the “demon hunting” butcher knife.

“I didn’t kill anyone.” Hou Cheng gradually calmed down, “Xiaolong just lived in my house for a few days, and I don’t even know his real name!”

Xiao Yuan shook his head, “Are you willing to plead guilty if I find Yang Nanke’s bones?”

Hou Cheng’s eyes were as big as a lamp, and he stared at Xiao Yuan arrogantly but fearfully.

“The case has been investigated for this reason. Everything you bothered to hide is being sliced ​​out by me and my team members.” Xiao Yuan stood up, cold and majestic, “We can even find Yang Nanke’s blood, can’t it be found? His bones?”

Hou Cheng couldn’t help shaking, his shoulders fell down, as if thinking of a certain possibility, the fear in his eyes overwhelmed the arrogance, “You…”

“You advocated’demon hunting’. Before writing the’demon hunting’ into the book, you had already completed the actual’demon hunting’ with your own hands.” Xiao Yu settled down, “Not only that, you also learned from the killing of Yang Nanke. Got inspiration from it.”

Hou Cheng’s eyes widened, almost reaching the limit.

“So the killing process you wrote is always so vivid and so… exciting.” Xiao Yuan lowered his eyelids under the bright light, “When I read your first book, I thought about why your protagonist would choke one of the victims. It’s too unreasonable to enter the cemetery. Where is the cemetery that allows him to stuff people casually? Isn’t it easier to expose yourself to the police’s sight? Just now I suddenly wanted to understand that you are a typical’art comes from life ‘.”

Hou Cheng’s complexion was pale, and his wrinkles kept trembling.

Xiao Yuan said: “More than ten years ago, you dug your parents out of the burial tomb and buried them in the melon field unknowingly. The burial tomb was emptied immediately, and you stopped taking care of it and left it deserted. Three years ago, you killed the unfilial Yang Nanke in the basement of your house. When the smell of the corpse became more obvious and you had to move the corpse away, you were scared, confused, and didn’t know where to bury it. The outside world is right. It’s not safe for you. Except for your own melon field, you are worried about being found no matter where you drop the body. But burying your own parents in the melon field, and burying another Yang Nanke, is a blasphemy to your parents.”

Hou Cheng shook his head, “No, it’s not like this!”

Xiao Yuan ignored it and continued: “Where is it going to be buried? Where will it not be discovered? You suddenly thought of the tomb in Qingyue Village. The burial tomb on it will not be removed in the next thirty years at least! ”

“Ah!” Hou Cheng roared, his fist slammed on the interrogation table.

“It’s a big death. You transfer Yang Nanke’s body to your parents’ burial tomb. This is indeed the safest way.” Xiao Yuan said: “Now, do you still think I can’t find Yang Nanke’s bones?”

“What?” Ming Shu asked in shock: “Yang Nanke is in the tomb of Hou Cheng’s parents?”

“Yes.” Xiao Yuan’s voice came from the phone, “I have discussed with the Hua team, and a group of special police will be sent there. As soon as they arrive, you will immediately block the tomb and open the tomb of Hou Cheng’s parents.”

Ming Shu took a deep breath.

Opening a burial tomb in the countryside is a big deal, so Xiao Yuan and Hua Chong sent special police to come.

On the tomb mountain not long ago, he had such concerns, and he heard the village cadres repeatedly emphasize that “the death of a man is great”, so he did not open the tomb.

Now Xiao Yuan said with certainty that Yang Nanke was buried in the tomb of Hou Cheng’s parents.

Then this burial tomb had to be opened.

It was midnight when the special police arrived in Qingyue Village. Hearing that the police were going to the grave mountain to open a tomb, almost all the villagers came out. Several village officials wanted to stop, but received a call from Hou Jianjun halfway through.

Hou Jianjun stayed in the city bureau, his voice was too old, “Let them go! Let them go! Hou Cheng has committed a crime, let’s not cover him!”

Under the leadership of the village cadres, the villagers retreated outside the warning zone one after another.

Half of the tomb hill was illuminated as bright as day. Ming Shu stood by the tomb and watched the sealer open the tomb with his own eyes.

The two coffins were placed side by side in the tomb, making people feel a little bit of chill.

The tomb sealer put down the cement board and stepped aside, unwilling to touch the coffin.

In the hearts of ordinary people, it is ultimately unlucky to open the tombs of people who have passed away for decades.

Ming Shu raised his chin towards Fang Yuanhang, “Let’s come.”

The lid of a coffin was removed, and the inside was empty and there was nothing.

The detectives looked solemn. Although they were used to seeing all kinds of corpses, it was the first time they had to pick up coffins to find bones.

The lid of the second coffin was also slowly removed, and what appeared inside was a huge cloth bag full of old blood.

A not strong smell filled the air, and many detectives pulled the masks on their faces.

“I…I fucked!” Fang Yuanhang swallowed fiercely, holding a corner of the cloth sack with his gloved hand.

The cloth bag is not heavy and can be dragged out with one hand.

The forensic doctor cut the cloth bag, and everyone frowned.

Soon after the corpse was ossified, the soft tissues were gray and attached to the bones like mud.

“This is Yang Nanke.” Fang Yuanhang looked at Ming Shu, “There will be no one else but him, right?”

Ming excused himself without answering, and asked the forensic doctor: “Can you preliminarily determine the cause of death?”

The forensic doctor picked up the severely damaged head and said after a moment: “The brain was hit with a blunt weapon.”

A cruel picture unfolded before Ming Shu’s eyes-three years ago, Yang Nanke was looking at something in the dark basement, completely unprepared, Hou Cheng quietly appeared behind him and raised the tool hammer in his hand.

Before sunrise, the blood test results were released. The blood on the cloth bag and the blood in the basement belonged to Yang Nanke.

At the same moment, his father Yang Juncheng and his sister Yang Yan had already arrived in Los Angeles, and what awaited them was a pile of icy bones.

Yang Juncheng collapsed on the spot, crying loudly in the city bureau, and his voice echoed in the lobby illuminated by the rising sun——

“Who killed my son!”

“why why?”

“Nanke! My son! Dad’s sorry for you!”

Finally unable to deny it anymore, Hou Cheng listened to Yang Juncheng’s shouts and suddenly let out a weird and penetrating laugh.

Ming Shu personally sent Yang Nanke’s bones back to Los Angeles, and stayed up all night. At this time, he slapped a palm on the interrogation table like a gavel.

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Hou Cheng bulged his eyes, and after a short stun, he slowly began, “Yes, I killed the dragon, because he deserves to die! Why do you judge me?”

Ming Shu said coldly: “You killed someone, committed a crime, and want to escape the punishment of the law?”

Hou Cheng shouted: “I didn’t kill anyone!”

Ming Shu said: “Did you forget? Just a minute ago, you said that you killed the dragon.”

“But I am not a human being.” Hou Cheng excitedly said: “I am killing a demon! What I am calling to kill is also a demon! They have no human skin, they are no longer human!”

Ming Shu paused, “You are finally willing to admit–you wrote a book calling for murder!”

“Some people deserve to die! They deserve to die!” Hou Cheng’s right index finger and **** suddenly stretched out and poked his own eyes. “I can see more clearly than you policemen! You are wearing police uniforms. Putting on a grand and upright frame, but only knowing to protect the devil, and saying that the crime is not dying, you are all accomplices of the devil, and you deserve to die!

Xiao Yuan looked at the situation in the interrogation room with arms folded beside the monitor.

Ming Shu was not irritated, “Do you think Yang Nanke deserves to die? Why? Didn’t you kill him to give yourself a false identity? Playing your reversal and reversal trick?”

Hou Cheng’s hands were already handcuffed at this time.

He was struggling frequently, and there was a burst of noise.

“Yang Nanke is not filial.” He said: “I’m helping his parents get rid of harm!”

Ming Shu sternly said: “Nonsense!”

At this time, in the reception room of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Luocheng Bureau, Yang Juncheng, with white hair, cried almost unconscious, and Yang Yan couldn’t cry.

In the distant city of Lucheng, Huang Xia fell ill after learning the news of her son’s murder, and she is still in the hospital.

Yang Nanke has been missing for three years. When the police are helpless, the Yang family has never given up hope, and has been searching for the son’s whereabouts by its own means, waiting for his son to return safely.

Even though Yang Nanke was not filial, they also chose to forgive.

Their biggest wish is to see Yang Nanke standing in front of them again, even if they continue to be awkward about changing their girlfriends, even if they continue to ask for money from the family.

Hou Cheng even said that by killing Yang Nanke, he was killing Yang Nanke’s parents.

How absurd this is!

Ming Shu couldn’t help thinking of Lu Kun.

After killing two children, Lu Kun also said that they deserved to die, and he was killing them for the people.

But no matter how evil the child is, he shouldn’t be judged by Lu Kun’s knife.

Yang Nan Ke is not filial, should he die, let alone be judged by Hou Cheng.

These people who slogan “some people deserve to die” have gone crazy.

In an extremely excited state, Hou Cheng began to tell the story of killing Yang Nanke——

Three years ago, Hou Cheng was stopped by Yang Nanke with a travel bag on his way back to Qingyue Village from the town.

“Uncle, can you give me a hand?”

Hou Cheng didn’t like to interact with people, but Yang Nanke insisted on getting in the car.

On the way, Yang Nanke talked endlessly, almost telling about his experience of traveling from the northern border to the south.

Hou Cheng asked: “You don’t work at a young age?”

“What kind of work?” Yang Nanke disdainfully said: “I have a son in my family, and there is a sister on it, who is married. My parents bought me a house, and the monthly payment is paid by my sister and brother-in-law. Sooner or later, the house at home will also be mine. I’m so tiring at work. It’s better to come out and take a look at the great mountains and rivers of the motherland, and then go home and cheat when the money is over!

Hou Cheng stepped on the brake and looked back at Yang Nanke.

Yang Nanke was swayed by the unexpected brake, and his forehead almost hit the iron gate.

He said half-jokingly and half-seriously: “Uncle, are you going to fix me?”

There was fierce indignation in Hou Cheng’s chest.

Unlike Yang Nanke, whose parents are both alive, he lost his parents when he was a boy.

He was born in Qingyue Village and lived with his father Hou Jiangfeng and mother Xu Hong for eleven years.

At that time, he was not withdrawn, but introverted. Compared to playing with children of the same age, he preferred to go to the fields to help his parents with farm work.

The old man in the village said that the child was too clingy, like a baby girl.

When I was 11 years old, the whole spring and summer was raining. The melon fields were hit, and the households had no harvest. They couldn’t open the pot. Hou Jiangfeng said to Xu Hong that Xiaocheng would spend a lot of money to go to school. I went to work in the city and you were at home. Take a good rest and take care of your children.

Xu Hong insisted on sending Hou Jiangfeng into the city, but CMB encountered a landslide on the road, and a truckload of people was buried inside. When the troops arrived, both Hou Jiangfeng and Xu Hong were dead.

Hou Cheng became an orphan, living alone on pensions, old houses, and melon fields. The most regrettable thing in adulthood is that he did not have the opportunity to honor his parents.

More than ten years ago, he dug out the bones of Hou Jiangfeng and Xu Hong and buried them in the melon field. He imagined that every watermelon that came out was a gift and blessing from his parents.

He is the most disdainful of such an unfilial son like Yang Nanke, who is in the blessing and knows no good fortune.
