To be precise, the accident has left Yanjing City and is a small village located in the Hebei Province to Yanjing. There are only a hundred families in total. Because the place is small, there are no famous industries, and it is not suitable for tourism development, almost every family in the village works outside, which is a typical urban village.

The only people who stayed in the village were the elderly who were unable to work and children who went to school. They had only two or three hundred people. Although there were not many people, every family in the village had an Internet connection and the roads were very developed. Usually, they were not blocked from receiving messages from the outside. Instead, they could rarely feel a trace of tranquility and a peaceful life.

But not long ago, a scandal broke out in the village, leading to the birth of a crazy murder case. The case was not complicated, and after the police intervened, the truth was quickly found out.

Logically speaking, although this incident will cause some ripples in the peaceful village, it will soon pass. After all, humans are the most forgetful animals. But what is really terrifying is what happened later.

Seven days after the murder, another elderly couple in the village died mysteriously. These two were the parents of one of the victims in the case. The two died inexplicably, with no scars on their bodies, and even their expressions were peaceful and peaceful. There was no pain at all, but they had passed away.

The police arrived again, and did not find out any possibility or clues of homicide, so they could only be judged as natural death. They thought the matter would stop, but then, only one day later, the parents of another victim died again in the same way.

At this moment, the successive deaths finally caused a panic among the villagers, but before everyone could recover, one death after another began to occur one after another.

The villagers who died again had no involvement in the murder case, but their deaths were exactly the same. They were all unharmed and had a calm expression. After examination of the corpse, no internal injuries or toxic substances were found.

Gradually, there were rumors among villagers that this was a ghost seeking his life, and that the village had offended something that should not be offended.

The police naturally vigorously stopped the people from promoting superstition, and at the same time tried their best to investigate clues of the case, but they still found nothing. At the same time, the death incident continued without any intention of termination, and even seemed to be provocative, it became increasingly serious.

In just three days, thirty-one people died in a row.

There are four on the first day, nine on the second day, and eighteen on the third day, almost increasing in geometric multiples.

This scared the villagers so much that no one dared to live at home anymore, and moved away from the village one after another.

A large number of villagers died strangely, which aroused the police's attention. They also immediately ordered the evacuation of all residents in the village, and blocked the entire village and strictly investigated them.

It was at this moment that Qi Tianchuan brought me here.

From a distance, you can see that the entrance of the village has been blocked by the isolation belt, and several policemen in uniform are standing there.

The Hummer stopped at the entrance of the village, and a female policewoman with short hair and a pretty face came over. After Qi Tianchuan and I got off the car, we glanced at Qi Tianchuan and couldn't help but pause on Qi Tianchuan.

But after just a moment, she returned to calm and said in a formulaic tone, "Are you residents of the village? A major case has occurred here and has been blocked and cannot enter for the time being. The specific time for lifting the blockade is to be determined. Our police will notify you separately. Please go back first."

Qi Tianchuan frowned. I didn't dare to talk nonsense without saying anything.

After waiting for a while, the policewoman found that neither of us had any intention of answering her. He frowned and was about to say something, but he saw Qi Tianchuan take out his cell phone and broadcast a number.

The phone was quickly connected, and Qi Tianchuan said calmly, "I've arrived. Haven't you notified the people below you?...Okay."

After a few short sentences, he hung up the phone, then stood there with his hands in his arms, expressionless face, still without any intention of paying attention to the policewoman.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Didn't you hear me talking to you? Please leave immediately, otherwise don't blame me for arresting you for being obstructed by official duties."

Now the policewoman finally got angry and couldn't help but scold him loudly.

Seeing this, the two male policemen next to him began to slowly pace here.

Helplessly, seeing that Qi Tianchuan was still not going to speak, I could only bite the bullet and go forward to explain. I didn’t know what happened to this guy. On the way here, after explaining the situation to me, I was always so serious, as if I was too lazy to even talk, and I looked worried.

"Uh, that, comrade police, don't get me wrong, we..."

"Dingling..."

As soon as he spoke, the cell phone on the policewoman started to ring.

The female policewoman was full of anger and took out her cell phone and was about to hang up without even looking. At this moment, Qi Tianchuan, who had been pretending to be a stone man for a long time, finally spoke, "I advise you to pick up the phone and listen to what the situation is."

"I need to care whether I answer the phone or not..."

The policewoman shouted coldly, but subconsciously glanced at the phone. After seeing the name on it, she was stunned and then quickly answered the phone, "Director Zhang, yes, what? You...yes, I understand, perform the task."

"Bang!"

After hanging up the phone, the policewoman's face became strange and glanced at us several times.

I was a little confused, but I heard Qi Tianchuan say calmly, "Now we can go in."

"That's right, Director Zhang asked me to take you in."

The female policewoman nodded coldly, obviously a little dissatisfied, so she could only execute the order. She turned around and let go of the isolation belt and walked one step ahead to the village. Qi Tianchuan and I followed, leaving only two male policemen with confusion on their faces and continued to garrison on the spot.

...

The village is very clean, with flat cement roads on the ground, two rows of bungalows are arranged in an orderly manner, each with a huge courtyard. But as you see at this moment, every household has a tight door locked, and the house has been empty, showing a lifeless smell.

“Have all the villagers moved away?”

Qi Tianchuan walked and asked casually.

"There is still a family left. The two old men are very stubborn. They don't want to leave no matter what they say, nor do they want to obey the police's arrangements. In order to stay at home and even force each other to die, Director Zhang is doing his job."

The policewoman did not look back, and seemed to explain it coldly due to the order.

Qi Tianchuan nodded slightly and did not continue to ask.

Following the policewoman, we soon came to the old man's house who was unwilling to move out. As soon as we stepped into the room, we could hear the old man's excited voice, "Comrade Police, you don't need to say anything. We will not leave. This is my home. Even if we die, we will die here."

"Auntie, we didn't want you to give up your house, we just left for the time being. It's very dangerous here. After we have completed our investigation, we will let you move back. Is this OK? No matter what you need, you can tell us. You should understand, and I will also advise you more. This is for your own good."

Turning around the door, I saw two old men sitting on the old wooden sofa. On the small stool opposite, there was a middle-aged man in police uniform, who was persuading him with great thought.

Just looking at the old couple's indifferent look, it was obvious that the persuasion did not work.

"Director Zhang..."

The policewoman called out softly, and the middle-aged man turned to find us.

"You two elders will think about it carefully."

He said to the old couple again, and the middle-aged man stood up, gave us a wink, and took the lead in walking outside the house.

When I arrived outside the yard, the middle-aged man looked at us and said in confusion, "The order I received was one person, you two..."

"I am from the sixth group and come to assist in the case. This is my assistant." Qi Tianchuan took the conversation and pointed at me and said in a low voice.

In my impression, I have never heard the three words in the sixth group. It was the first time Qi Tianchuan mentioned it in front of me. Before I could figure out what was going on, Director Zhang had already looked relieved and stepped forward to shake hands politely, "Hello, two comrades, thank you for coming and helping."

Qi Tianchuan's face was calm, but I was a little scared. It was the first time I had seen such a high official as the director on TV.

"You don't have to be polite, what's going on inside just now?"

Qi Tianchuan spoke.

"Why……"

Speaking of this, Director Zhang couldn't help but sigh helplessly, "You already know the beginning of this inexplicable death case, right?"

Qi Tianchuan nodded, "It's a man who works outside. When he comes back, he finds his wife's affair. He kills her adulterer and his wife in anger, and then commits suicide by taking poison."

"Yes, it was an ordinary love-killing case, but somehow the strange cases followed were the ones. The old couple inside were the parents of the murderer. Logically speaking, the villagers would talk behind their backs and would not affect anything. But the problem lies in the future. There were many inexplicable deaths in succession. The two families who died first were the parents of the previous adulterer and the murderer's wife. In a panic, the villagers had superstitious rumors of evil ghosts killing people."

"Because the murderer's parents are fine, and the evil ghost has something to do with the murderer, they did not kill their parents. After a while, the rumors became more and more intense, and our police could not find out the reason for a long time, so the villagers all accused the two old people inside in secret."

"The old couple has a strong temper and cannot defend themselves, so they simply live at home and refuse to leave. Didn't the villagers say that the evil ghosts have something to do with them? Then they stay and see if they will die."

"Either the police will find out the case and the truth will be revealed, or even if the old couple dies, they can prove their innocence. But once this evil ghost says it is nonsense, how can it be proved? I originally wanted to force the two elders to leave, but the two old men said that as long as they leave the village, they will commit suicide immediately. I can't always send people to watch them for twenty hours."

Director Zhang explained very depressedly.
