Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 34 Take Me as Bait
Whether it was the calm Zhang Dingshan face, the tired He Wei face, or the angry Lu Qingliang face, Lu Mingju could see the emotion hidden under the surface.

unwilling.

No one is willing to list it as an unsolved case and give up the investigation of this case.

According to Zhang Dingshan, listing it as an unsolved case does not mean giving up completely.There will be dedicated unsolved case managers who will continue to collect information, conduct follow-up investigations, and keep an eye on the progress of other cases to see if anyone is involved.

This also seems to be the way it is handled in the security department.

Lu Ming had heard of some criminal cases that did not involve "supernatural forces". In the past, due to technical limitations, the conditions for detection were not available at that time, so they became unsolved cases.But after more than ten years, or even decades, it was detected.

It is listed as an unsolved case, but after completely losing the possibility of solving it at this stage, it is pinning its hopes on the future.

But... it's all down to luck.After all, what kind of development things will have in the future and what kind of breakthroughs technology will have in the future is completely uncontrollable and unpredictable.

New and important clues may emerge in just a few years, or the case may not progress until Lu Ming dies of old age.

At the same time, although there are dedicated unsolved case management personnel to continue to follow up, the resources invested in various aspects will obviously be extremely limited, and it is impossible to compare with the present.

Now, the "Kidnapping Case of Organization X" is facing such an ending.

Lu Ming said in a low voice: "After it's listed as an unsolved case, how will I be dealt with?"

Zhang Dingshan said: "The sociology experiment will be over, and the personnel can go home. The garrison will be withdrawn, the physical evidence and materials will be sealed up, and the investigators will be evacuated. As for you...after signing the confidentiality agreement, you can return to society normally. If necessary, the government department will give a reasonable reason for your "resurrection", such as participating in a certain secret mission, and come forward to endorse the reason.

Now, no new crimes by the X Organization have been discovered for as long as two months.When you return to society, the risks you bear should be relatively small.

Well, the Sheriff's Department will provide you covert protection for a period of about one to two years.Afterwards, security personnel will evacuate. "

Returning to a normal society, reuniting with his parents and relatives, and telling his parents and sister that he is not dead and that he is still alive has always been Lu Ming's wish.

Once upon a time, when the X organization was "seeking peace", Lu Ming strongly urged Zhang Dingshan to accept their proposal to live in peace, but Zhang Dingshan refused.

At this moment, Zhang Dingshan offered to let him return to society, but Lu Ming hesitated.

He was silent for a long time.Zhang Dingshan and the others waited silently.

After a long time, Lu Ming raised his head, his eyes were full of determination.

"I'm not going back."

"Oh? Tell me what you think."

Lu Ming said slowly: "During this time, I have been looking up ancient books, looking for traces of the X organization and the truth about the Mountain God incident from historical fragments.

I have seen those people similar to the X organization, for their own self-interest, continue to kidnap people, and even do things like "human sacrifice" in captivity.In modern times, the X organization is even more unscrupulous, destroying countless families.

I want to ask, why?How old is the mountain god of Gou Ri?How can the X organization of Dog Day destroy our families and our lives at will?Why?
I don't agree!I dissatisfy for so many people in history who were sacrificed to the mountain gods!I refuse to accept so many victims in modern times! "

In the last sentence, Lu Ming gritted his teeth, his face full of ferocity.

"Lu Ming..."

He Wei sighed deeply.

"Sorry, a little excited."

Lu Ming calmed down and forced a smile.

"Well, well, I'm actually not that great. Uh, but as a human being, I'm still a little angry when I see my kind being treated like this.

The most important thing, Captain Zhang, I remember you once told me that existence that does not abide by the rules of our human world cannot be trusted.I don't believe that Organization X will stay dormant forever, nor that they will let me go.

When I go back to my parents and loved ones, I will only bring them danger.If I don't get rid of the X organization, and don't find out what kind of mountain god this is, I will be in fear and insecure for the rest of my life.

So, I'm not going back. "

Zhang Dingshan sighed: "It's okay if you don't go back. I'll think of a way, and I should be able to arrange you in the bureau. But, in this way, you will never be able to show up as Lu Ming again for the rest of your life. If you want decided."

Lu Ming shook his head: "No, I mean...sacrifice me to the mountain god."

Zhang Dingshan frowned instantly.He Wei's eyes widened, and Lu Qingliang was shocked.

"Although the existing evidence can confirm that what the X organization uses is not the traditional sacrificial method used by the ancients, they may have a more convenient and secret method, but this does not mean that the ancients used the sacrifice method. This sacrificial method cannot be used now."

Lu Ming said in a deep voice: "Through the search of ancient books and the collection of materials during this period, especially the analysis of the data about the poor boy in ancient times and the Tang family, we have been able to roughly delineate the places where the mountain gods sacrificed. The location. Using modern exploration, aerial photography, and satellite technology to conduct some searches, it may not be impossible to find that place.

After that, sacrifice me to the mountain god and draw the mountain god out. "

After leading out the mountain god, Lu Ming doesn't need to say what to do next.

Lu Ming knew that before he proposed this idea, Zhang Dingshan and the others might not have thought of it.But maybe because of some reasons, such as discipline does not allow, they need to worry about their own safety, etc., they did not bring it up.

Now, if you take the initiative to propose this plan and apply for it, it may help this plan to be approved by your superiors.

Lu Ming had already made up his mind at this moment.

Compared with being incognito all his life, not being able to move freely, or returning to society, but living in fear all his life, and possibly even bringing danger to his parents and relatives, he would rather fight to the death.

If it succeeds, if the mountain god is destroyed and he is rescued in time, the X organization will be like a rootless duckweed, losing the ability and motivation to make waves again.You are completely safe.

If you fail, even if you are really eaten by the mountain god, it will be better than a lifetime of fear.

"Have you made up your mind?"

Zhang Dingshan looked at Lu Ming calmly, his tone unconsciously becoming more serious.

Lu Ming nodded solemnly: "I'm sure."

"Okay. I'm going to apply to my superiors. It will take about a day. During this time, you can think about it carefully. If you go back on your word, tell me at any time. Or... even if you really find the place of sacrifice So, as long as you regret it before you actually start, you can stop at any time."

"team leader……"

He Wei called out in a low voice.But before she could say anything else, Zhang Dingshan waved her hand to stop her.

Lu Ming nodded solemnly again: "In any case, thank you, thank you Captain Zhang, thank you He Wei. Thank you too, Qing Liang."

Lu Qingliang smiled wryly, but shook her head.

"Okay, let's do this first."

The communication was cut off, and Lu Ming leaned on the back of his chair in a daze.After a long time, he stood up and walked out of the room.

He looked at the place not far away but completely isolated from it, where the "sociological experiment" was going on, listened to the faint noise of people coming with the wind, and murmured: "Don't worry, you Won't wait long."

He returned to the reference room again, and saw Huang Weimin who was still buried in the ancient books.

"Mr. Huang, now we have a new mission. We need to find out the place where the poor boy and the Tang family sacrificed to the mountain god in the mountain..."

Huang Weimin, who didn't know the inside story, was a little surprised.

"Xiao Lu, this is all feudal superstition. Do you really believe that there is such a place? Let me tell you, that poor boy was legally robbed on the charge of offering sacrifices to the mountain god, and the Tang family just had a strange belief."

Lu Ming smiled lightly: "Maybe the so-called place for worshiping the mountain god is a treasure trove? Maybe there is something valuable buried there. Don't ask me, there are some things I can't say."

Huang Weimin suddenly realized: "It's related to the case, right? I understand the confidentiality regulations, I understand. That's okay, let's try to find it."

The two started collecting data again, as well as subsequent analysis and thinking.

"First of all, the village where the poor boy lives is called Erlang Village—this is an ancient village. Later, a mudslide killed many people, and all those who survived were moved away. This village is about four miles west of Nanji Village today. About six kilometers away. Take the footsteps of ancient people, walk on the mountain road... Wait, find a topographic map first."

"The village where the ancestors of the Tang family lived was called Shanghe Village, and it is also called Shanghe Village now, but with the change of terrain, the location of the village has moved. I remember that there was a flood during the Shunzhi period..."

"The record about the poor boy said that a group of people walked in the mountains for more than a day, and they said that they passed a canyon, 'the sky was like a line' or something, and there was a small road with a yellow color on both sides. The flowers are relatively large, divided into several petals, and the fragrance is relatively weak. I will find out what kind of flower this is, Xiaolu, you can find the climate data of the Taihang Mountains during the Chongzhen period. With the climate data, we can probably calculate this. What altitude does the flower grow at?"

Of course, there were no professional meteorological data records during the Chongzhen period.However, through archaeological and geological research, it is still possible to roughly describe the climate change at that time.

In this way, the two began to calculate against a pile of ancient books, maps, and a lot of data.

The next afternoon, Zhang Dingshan called.

"Lu Ming, the superior has agreed that the second operation team will try to lure the mountain god through sacrificial rituals on the premise of ensuring your personal safety."

Lu Ming smiled wearily, his voice was hoarse: "Teacher Huang and I have roughly delineated the place where the sacrifice is located."
