Synthesis of Terror: On the One Thousand and One Ways of Death of the Protagonist

Qin Yue has walked this road countless times, and she is so familiar that even if she closes her eyes, she can clearly remember everything in every place.

Qin Yue's footsteps stopped at the alley where Jack lost his trace, paused for a moment, and then walked in.

The alley is not wide, only wide enough for two people to walk side by side. It is said to be an alley, but it is actually a gap between two buildings.

There were no lights in the alley, and the light coming in from the entrance was not enough to illuminate the whole alley. Qin Yue walked slowly, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the alley.

The dark clouds gathered in the sky at some point, and the thin raindrops fell, and Qin Yue, who came out of the alley, was already wet in a large area.

After leaving that alley, not far ahead is the block where Qin Yue and the others live.

The last time Jack was caught by the camera was before he entered the alley, and after that, he was nowhere to be seen.

Arriving here, they are actually not far from their home. Qin Yue can even see the beautiful iron rooster on the roof of Jack's house - it was made by eight-year-old Jack himself.

So close to home, where could Jack go?

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Qin Yue's clothes were already drenched by the rain. The wet clothes stuck to her body, making people feel comfortable after a few steps. However, Qin Yue didn't seem to feel it at all. With the rain on his face, he walked slowly towards home.

Such a long time is enough for Qin Yue to calm down and think about Jack's matter carefully.

Although Jack was young, he was already 1.7 meters tall. If he was a child abductor, he probably wouldn't attack him at his age.

First of all, he is old and difficult to control, and his height is not easy for those who kidnap and traffic him.

If a boy who is 1.7 meters tall struggles, it is impossible not to attract the attention of the people around him.

Qin Yue exhaled a foul breath, thinking of another possibility.

An acquaintance committed the crime.

If an acquaintance commits a crime, they will either beg for money or have an enmity with Jack's family. However, Jack's parents are just ordinary people, and quarrels with others are inevitable on weekdays. There will be a lot of friction, so that others will not risk kidnapping the couple's son to threaten them.

If it was the couple's enemy who kidnapped their son, how could they do something, not so silently, leaving nothing behind.

Qin Yue's head was aching, and she thought of the worst possibility.

The person, or organization, who took Jack away was Jack himself.

Qin Yue has experienced too many worlds, seen too many ugly human natures, the dirtiest side of human nature, she does not know how many times she has experienced.

If it's for Jack...

Qin Yue didn't dare to continue thinking about it. Thinking about what might happen to Jack, Qin Yue felt that she couldn't bear it.

She has exhausted her methods, and her abilities, except for hands and feet, other supernatural abilities cannot be used.

She couldn't find Jack, the boy who loved her wholeheartedly.

The sky had completely darkened, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. Qin Yue stood under the bus stop sign on the corner of the street, looking at the front blankly, as if she didn't know where she was.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Yue felt a little cold on her body. She lowered her head, looked at her soaked clothes, turned around, and walked slowly towards home.

Just two steps out, Qin Yue stood in front of Qin Yue alone. Qin Yue raised her head slowly, and when she saw that familiar face, Qin Yue subconsciously twitched her lips and called softly: "Brother .”

Scott held up an umbrella to cover the rain from the sky. He looked down at his sister, looking at her as if she had lost her soul, and Scott felt pain in his heart.

He still remembered what his sister looked like before, how did she become what she is now?

Scott hugged Qin Yue in his arms, and said with a sob: "Alice, don't do this, I feel bad, Alice, you still have us, you still have us, don't torture yourself like this, okay? "

Jack can't be found, how long will my sister be trapped in Jack's shadow?

"Alice, you and us..."

Qin Yue buried her head in Scott's arms and closed her eyes wearily.

Scott wouldn't understand, and he wouldn't understand, that his sister's 12-year-old body lived with an old soul, and he wouldn't know how important Jack meant to her.

Whether Jack is alive or dead, she will find him.

Scott brought Qin Yue, who was dripping wet, back home. As soon as he entered the house, seeing Qin Yue like this, Jesse burst into tears.

"Alice..."

Jessie held Qin Yue in her arms and wept bitterly. She watched her daughter torture herself like this, but she couldn't do anything.

Although my daughter looks very talkative on weekdays, as if she doesn't care about anything, once she becomes stubborn, no one can persuade her.

Jessie brought Qin Yue upstairs, filled the bathtub with hot water, took off Qin Yue's clothes, and put her cold daughter into the bathtub.

Jesse told Qin Yue to wash up quickly, and went downstairs to make preparations for Qin Yue to eat.

The temperature of the body slowly recovered, but there was no way to warm up the cold heart.

Her heart is already empty.

After taking a bath and changing into comfortable pajamas, Qin Yue stood in the room for a moment, opened the door and walked downstairs.

Jesse had already prepared dinner, and was about to go upstairs to call Qin Yue. Seeing that Qin Yue had come down, Jesse rushed over, pulled Qin Yue past, and pushed her to sit on the chair.

"Today I made your favorite pasta, you can try to see if your mother's cooking has improved."

Jesse forced a smile, and put the hot noodles in front of Qin Yue.

Qin Yue picked up the fork and twisted the noodles on the fork several times. The aroma of the noodles in meat sauce penetrated into Qin Yue's nose. She was slightly startled and suddenly lost her appetite.

"Is dad back?"

Qin Yue raised her head, looked at Jesse, and asked softly.

Seeing Qin Yue's expression, Jessie didn't know that she had lost her appetite. Seeing that her daughter was already thin and out of shape, her round face was only the size of a palm.

Jesse felt very uncomfortable. When her daughter asked about her husband, Jesse forced a smile and said, "Your father hasn't left work yet..."

Because of Jack's case, Cole was so busy that he left before dawn every day and didn't come back until early in the evening.

Jesse felt very distressed, and felt that their family was about to lose half their lives because of Jack's incident.

"When will dad come back?"

"I do not know."

Jessie shook his head, seeing that Qin Yue was just holding the fork, so he urged: "Alice, you eat more or less, how can you bear it if this goes on like this?"

Qin Yue really couldn't eat it, but seeing Jesse's appearance of crying, she couldn't bear to make Jesse suffer because of her own affairs, so she suppressed the discomfort and ate the whole plate of noodles forcefully.

Seeing that Qin Yue finally ate her meal, Jesse breathed a sigh of relief, and just about to say something, she saw Qin Yue covering her mouth and running towards the bathroom. Within a few minutes, heart-piercing vomiting sounded from the bathroom .

Jessie's tears flowed down, she ran to the bathroom, hugged the weak Qin Yue, and cried, "Alice, do you want to torture me to death?"

"Mom, I'm sorry..."

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried.

After crying so much, Qin Yue's mood stabilized a bit. After going back to her room and taking a bath again, Qin Yue lay on the bed and fell asleep after a while.

Qin Yue had a nightmare, and when she woke up, she was drenched in sweat, as if she had been fished out of the water.

Staring blankly at the pink ceiling, Qin Yue couldn't remember what she dreamed about, the only thing she remembered was the heart-piercing pain in the dream.

After waking up with a start, Qin Yue couldn't fall asleep anyway. She lay on the bed for a while, calming down her beating heart. It seemed that she heard the sound of the door lock being opened downstairs. Qin Yue was stunned, and suddenly Sitting up, Qin Yue ran downstairs with bare feet, regardless of wearing shoes.

Cole dragged his tired body into the house.

Today, he was really busy. After finding something wrong, he reported the matter to the top. Soon, there was a response. The people above asked him to sort out the information, saying that someone would come soon Take the case.

There seems to be a new development in the case, but Cole doesn't feel happy at all. If the same person really did it, if the 56 teenagers were all taken away by that person...

Although Cole, who has been a policeman for more than ten years, has not handled many major cases, he has also read a lot of internal information in the police station.

The faces of those 56 teenagers flashed through his mind one by one, and finally settled on Jack's face.

There used to be a slim hope, but now, that last hope is about to be ruthlessly snuffed out.

serial killer......

Cole heard the sound of the stairs, he looked up and saw a figure running down the stairs: "Alice..."

"Dad, did you find it?"

Qin Yue has asked this sentence countless times, and every time, the answer he got is the same.

"Sorry, Alice..."

Seeing the light in his daughter's eyes dimmed, Cole felt very distressed. He wanted to hug his daughter, but his body was already drenched by rain, so how could he touch her?

"Alice, no news is the best news, isn't it?"

Cole can only comfort Qin Yue in this way. He can't tell Qin Yue about the new clues he discovered. If it is really a serial killer, the murderer is probably by their side. If the daughter accidentally said something, let the murderer have Preparation will add a lot of unnecessary trouble to the police.

Cole hesitated to speak, and Qin Yue guessed that Cole seemed to be hiding something from her, but Cole didn't want to say it, and Qin Yue couldn't force him to ask, so she forced a smile, let Cole take a bath, and went to the kitchen by herself Get busy.

In the evening, there was still some meat sauce Jessie made. Qin Yue heated it up in the microwave and put it under the water. When the hot spaghetti was brought out, Cole just came out of the shower.

Jessie was fast asleep, and woke up after being tormented by Cole. She came out of the house yawning, and was about to prepare dinner for her husband, but when she came out, she saw that her precious daughter had already prepared dinner .

Jesse's eyes turned red in an instant. She looked at the thick dark circles under Qin Yue's eyes and knew that Qin Yue must have not slept well. Jesse sniffed and said, "Alice, go back and rest. Tomorrow Still have to go to school."

Qin Yue shook her head and said softly, "Tomorrow is Sunday, so you don't have to go to school."

Jessie froze for a moment, then remembered that tomorrow is indeed Sunday, and her daughter doesn't have to go to school.

It was she who was confused.

Qin Yue wanted to ask something else at first, but seeing Cole's extremely exhausted appearance, Qin Yue endured it and did not ask further.

Seeing that Cole had blown it, Qin Yue took the plate back to the kitchen and put it in the dishwasher. Under Jessie's repeated urging, Qin Yue went back to her room, but she couldn't sleep anymore, and tossed and turned all night , it was only dawn for a while.

At 07:30, Qin Yue got up, didn't sleep much all night, Qin Yue was a little drowsy, after taking a cold bath, Qin Yue became more awake.

It was already eight o'clock when Qin Yue went downstairs, and Cole and Jesse had already gone to work.

Qin Yue made a simple breakfast, ate some hastily, sealed the rest with plastic wrap, and put it in the refrigerator.

Today's weather is very good, the sun is shining, and there is no cloud in the sky. Qin Yue went out and went straight to the police station where Cole worked.

The BAU investigation team arrived very quickly. Not long after Cole arrived at the police station, the three special operations personnel arrived at the police station. Cole looked at the two men and one woman in front of him, and faintly raised a glimmer of expectation.

With them here, Jack's case might be solved.
