Chapter 43 A Nursery Rhyme

When Lei Yue and Xing Bao rushed back to their hometown bar in the depths of Mo Lane, the night rain had already begun to pour down, and the neon halo was dimmed by the rain.

"Xingbao!" Ginny rushed over happily from the bar, trying to hug Xingbao and kiss her round face.

"Oh, bad girl, go away." Xingbao avoided it flexibly, "Something might happen!"

Xingbao immediately told his views to the puzzled Sister Hua and Mo Xigan.

Lei Yue was also listening. In fact, he was always lucky about what the five-year-old said. After all, the crow didn't move.

"Be prepared, but we don't have to worry too much." Sister Hua said the same thing, "That's Ling Sha."

Obviously, out of her trust in Lingsha's ability, Sister Hua said:
"Xingbao, when Lingsha was your age, she lived in the urban sewer system of Spreading City. She was just a sewer mouse, and no one could catch her."

"You had a happy childhood that we didn't have." Ginny stroked Xingbao's head, which was still raising eyebrows and thinking, and said with a smile:

"When it's done this time, Lackey said he would buy you a grand piano, and we'll buy you a lot of things. How about a room full of dolls?"

After hearing this, Lei Yue knew, was Lingsha's childhood like that?Those scars and thorns on her arms...

As for himself, at the age of six, after the fire...

Lei Yue sat on the high stool by the bar, thinking about the past in silence.

Some long-term memories that I thought were dead and forgotten, vaguely surfaced in my mind.

He remembered that the incident of crows gathering at the garbage dump on a rainy night had something to do with it.

After the incident, some people in the village believed that the incident had something to do with the death in the previous fire.

And he couldn't die in the fire, just like the "Weeping Boy" portrait, it was considered to be his bad luck.

"Crow, crow, fly home..."

Lei Yue shook his head violently, and took a deep breath to adjust his breath, trying to put those blurred but gradually revealed images and sounds back into the box at the bottom of his heart.

He doesn't want to remember.

He didn't know what happened in the past, but he knew that he didn't want to remember it, not at all.

Crow, crow, fly home...

……

The night rain was falling rapidly, and it was forming a torrential downpour.

The big man hurriedly braved the rain and walked towards the blocked Furong Market Complex, where the frontline combat center was located.

Ginny's call before was really surprising and heart-warming. The big man has a new energy, and he must do his best to solve the case!

There is a chill atmosphere in the combat center.

Personnel from various departments are busy in each office area, walking around, looking at computers, and chatting on the phone:

"We don't accept media interviews here... No, Dongzhou doesn't have a gate to the world yet, and the "World Integration Law" hasn't taken effect..."

"Hello, is this the entertainment department of Saito Company? Some of your actions have seriously interfered with our investigation..."

"The Spreading Daily doesn't work either. We are a front-line combat center, not a press room..."

The big man walked quickly, careful not to hit anyone with his massive body.

There are enough people here, but from the newly erected large screens behind the podium, it can be seen that there are still multiple operations centers in operation.

In another combat center, tens of thousands of staff were sitting in front of computers, looking at relevant information about Dongzhou and Furong Village, changing personnel in three shifts without stopping.

In yet another location, officers are looking at recent known movements of legal and illegal border crossers in the Eastern State.

Now this murder case involves too much.

The big guy came all the way to the second floor, which was also overcrowded, and different departments were busy.

He walked into the exclusive office of the investigation team. In this temporary board room, several colleagues were looking at the computer. They were all from the same group, and the other teams were still investigating outside.

"Lezi, Xiaozhi, Wennv."

The big guy walked by and said hello.

Because the age and seniority are the highest in the audience, the big guy calls them by their nicknames, and they usually call him "Brother Oil".

"How is it? Xiaohong, uh no no...Deputy Captain Lin, have you discovered anything new?"

The big man walked to the desk of the woman in red. The desk was full of various documents and materials, and there was a brand new business card in the business card holder:

[Vice Captain of the Special Investigation Team: Lin Hongyun]

"not yet."

Lin Hongyun responded without raising her head, just staring at the video on the computer screen.

"Oh." Seeing that her eyes were bloodshot, the big man knew that she hadn't rested for several days, and had been watching various videos of Furong Village during the time when the crows gathered.

If it weren't for the physical strength of the alien and her always desperate will to support her, she would have been exhausted.

With the field investigation bogged down, their group changed tactics a few days ago: rummaging through archive images.

Although there are tens of thousands of people watching outside, the details of some abnormal events can only be detected by them, the alien agents.

Among the aliens, it is not that there is no ability to connect the brain to information and data for rapid analysis.

This kind of ability is extremely rare, usually it is a joke card, and there are not many.

Although the Special Investigation Bureau does not recruit ghost cards, the Boundary Patrol Agency has sent such colleagues, and some international organizations have provided support. There is a whole group of people doing this.

But the problem is that the data is still too massive.

This is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It is an "impossible task" for Sisyphus to push that boulder to the top of the mountain.

Moreover, not everyone wants to solve the case and close the door to the world that is slowly opening.

Even in this investigation team, there may be someone who was bribed by Sai Teng, and who is the eyeliner of Gein Heavy Industry-not before, but now it is, and now it is too much.

Maybe someone found the clues but concealed them, and instead sold the information to a giant company in the main realm outside.

This is not speculation, but something that has happened.

"Hmm..." The big man thought about this, and he couldn't help scanning his surrounding colleagues with a pair of bull's eyes.

To be honest, he wasn't sure who he could trust 100%, except maybe Vice Team Lin.

Because she came from a superior background and is the "biological daughter" of the Special Investigation Bureau, doing this kind of thing is not good for her, and she will fight for the position of director in the future.

And this proud woman with background and ability thinks that they need to see the video for themselves.

That's how the crows gathered at the garbage dump on a rainy night was the clue.

It's just that there are still a lot of data images, but there is not so much time.

"Deputy team, shouldn't it be time to tell everyone this clue?"

The big man scratched his head and asked, only a small group of them knew the new clues.

But as the time became more and more urgent, no matter what Vice Team Lin's intentions were, whether it was to guard against inner ghosts or to be greedy for merit, it was time to tell the clues, right?
"No! Don't leak the secret, if the crow is really the key to resonance, if there is an inner ghost..."

Lin Hongyun has her own considerations, "If any company uses the unstoppable new ghost door to fly tens of thousands or tens of thousands of crows in Furong Village to expand the intensity of resonance, then nothing will be saved."

The big man hesitated to speak, knowing that this was indeed the case.

This new clue can be a life-saving antidote or a deadly poison.

"Oh." The big man stood for a while, then walked towards his desk, still muttering a lot in his heart.

Just as the big man sat down and turned on the computer, he also had to devote himself to the work of looking through the images.

Suddenly, Lin Hongyun over there suddenly stood up, her voice hoarse, and she shouted with a little excitement:

"Come here, everyone! I may have found it."

"Ah!?" The big man hurried over, and the other three colleagues around him also stood up and ran away in surprise.

Each of them was in high spirits, and there was a surge of excitement, but it was not particularly surprising.

Have you found the key clue, at this juncture?
It is indeed the trump card of the championship series!
Champions (Champions), a recognized ace club, almost only has aces.

The number of these ace champion mutants is very small, and their characteristics are the leaders of a certain industry, and they are existences that are looked up to and praised by the world.

Lin Hongyun is exactly that trump card.

Although they are all aces, they are different from the ace "Synthetic Oil" which is a bit funny, and also different from the ace "Shotgun Man" which is stained with black.

What she resonates is a typical but powerful champion urban legend:

[Soul of the sky: There is an ace pilot flying a fighter plane to defend the sky of his homeland. In battle after battle, he shoots down all the invading enemy planes. 】

"This video was filmed by a villager at the garbage dump.

"This person usually likes to take random photos. Photos and videos are also synchronized to the cloud server. It seems that they have never been sorted out, and they have just been saved until now."

While talking about the situation, Lin Hongyun took off the earphones, let the sound of the video play, took the mouse and clicked to play again.

The big man and several other people gathered around the desk, all watching intently.

I saw that the video was shot during the daytime. In a dump full of electronic waste, some children were jumping and jumping around the garbage dump, full of childish laughter.

When they investigated the dump before, they knew that this dump would attract some children from Furong Village to play and steal electronic gadgets.

In the past, the social environment was not as complicated as it is now, there were not so many cars, and the children in the village still ran all over the village.

At this time, in this video, this group of children aged ten, eight and even younger are playing in the garbage dump, circling around a little boy.

"Huh!?" The big man suddenly frowned, seeing that half of the little boy's face was burnt and disfigured...

The bad-faced little boy stood there, looking very dazed and helpless.

As for the other children, whether it was a little boy or a little girl, more than a dozen people surrounded the ugly child.

The children danced around in circles and sang nursery rhymes, laughing and ridiculing:

"Crow, crow, fly home
"I saw the house was on fire
"Mom and Dad were all cremated
"Except for a rotten face scar
"It's him who turned into a monster!"

The bad-faced little boy kept turning his head, looking this way and that way, walking around, trying to leave, but he was still blocked by the children and refused to let him go.

His expression was a little scared, a little stiff and choked.

The children are still singing the nursery rhyme over and over again:

"Crow, crow, fly home..."

"Fuck, these brats..." The big man couldn't help cursing, but what he saw in front of him was something that had passed for many years and could not be changed.

The others also frowned and fell silent.

This couldn't be the only time that bad-faced kid was bullied.

"How come no villagers have mentioned this kind of thing?" the big man said angrily.

"Bullying?" Le Zai replied in a low voice, "Probably no one cares about it. If they know it, they'll just say 'kids are just fooling around'."

"And it's been more than ten years." Wen Nu also sighed, "Even the gathering of crows has long been forgotten."

"It's him." With a tense face, Lin Hongyun found Lei Yue's files from the pile of documents on the desk, and said emphatically:
"【Why Furong Village?】Maybe this is the reason, because of this person, Lei Yue."
