Plague Doctor

There was too much information in Tong Ye's case, and it also involved some images, symbols, etc. that could not be expressed in words. Therefore, Tong Ye did not tell Gu Jun immediately at the meeting, but said that he would make arrangements.

Still in the morning of the next day, someone from Dongzhou Medical Department came.

There was a new batch of patients in the middle of the night, and there were 7 new people in the medical department. The air here was very heavy.

However, when Gu Jun received someone at the door of the psychology building, his mood changed slightly. It was Wu Shiyu and a team of people who came carrying several suitcases.

"Wu Shiyu, why are you here?" he asked, "This is really not a good place for tourism."

"I'm here to keep an eye on you." Wu Shiyu looked here and there. There was nothing unusual about his beautiful face. He still had a smart look hidden in his laziness. "The original files of the case are all here. Mr. Tong said I can't read them. Don't discuss it with me, my mission is to wake you up with a stick if you show any signs of going crazy."

Gu Jun understood, nodded, and led the group of people to the psychology building.

We went all the way to the research center on the 12th floor and entered a small office. Several boxes of archives were placed on the desk.

Others were guarding the door. Wu Shiyu sat comfortably on the sofa chair, staring at Gu Jun behind the desk, and also paying attention to his mental changes with supersensory perception.

At this time, Gu Jun opened the suitcase numbered No. 1 and saw a large stack of old newspapers. A sour smell of old paper hit his face.

He picked up the top newspaper, "Guangting Daily". The black headlines on it were very dazzling:

[The tenth case of missing children occurred in the month, leaving Guangting City feeling confused]

This case occurred in Guangting City back then.

Gu Jun looked carefully at this old news. At that time, there were consecutive cases of missing children in Guangting City, and cases of missing babies in the hospital. The news was accompanied by pictures of anxious and crying parents. The media suspected that a trafficker group was behind the incident, and the police said they were investigating.

He frowned and naturally thought of those children in the classroom. Were they the ones who were abducted?

He had that doubt again, am I the biological child of my parents... But those hazy prenatal education memories, he should indeed be the biological child...

Within a few days of this pile of newspapers, the matter was publicized, saying that these were rumors and the cause was just that a child was lost in a hospital and had been found. Not to mention the era before the Internet, even now, public relations can quickly calm down hot issues.

So the matter was over at that time, and it was just another urban legend in Guangting City.

But the Secret Bureau's files show that it's not a rumor, it's all true.

During that period of less than three months, a total of 156 infants and 183 early childhood children were missing in the city.

Gu Jun clenched the file tightly in his hands, the veins on his forehead twitching slightly.

There are so many broken families here, and so many parents who have been searching hard for many years...

These disappearances were the cause of this old case. Because the case was so bad, the Secret Bureau sent a mobile task force to assist the police in the investigation.

It is the Fire Phoenix Team that Tongye Huang Guotong serves as the captain. It is a comprehensive team with 105 permanent members. At that time, Mr. Tong was only 27 years old. He was from the Investigation Department. Although he was a bit frivolous, he was talented and had a bright future.

However, after the Fire Phoenix Team intervened, they did not immediately solve the case.

Because on the one hand, this is not an ordinary crime committed by a beggar gang; on the other hand, the families who lost their children have nothing in common, no blood relationship, different levels of education, and different occupations. The theft gang seems to commit the crime randomly. .

The breakthrough came from an unexpected person, Liu Daze, an old professor of archeology at Guangting University who is quite famous in the industry.

One of his students reported to the police that he had been to Professor Liu's home several times recently and could vaguely hear the cry of a baby every time, but Professor Liu was an old man living alone.

And because Professor Liu had been "feeling weird" recently, the student felt uneasy and connected it to the recent missing baby case.

After Tong Ye and others came to investigate, they understood what "weird" meant.

The archaeologist calmly told Tongye their theory that there were some noble and great beings long before human beings existed. In the history of human civilization, their influence is everywhere. It's just that some of them are really too old, so long ago that humans themselves have forgotten them.

"The place where those children went is not a place that mortals can reach." The ancient professor of archeology told them, "But I know where they are buried."

This sentence is very strange, and the professor has a strange expression. No matter how you listen to it, it sounds like the words of a madman.

However, there was a lack of clues at that time, and any clues had to be tried. The Tianji Bureau conducted excavations according to the location mentioned by the old professor-a mountainous area on the outskirts of Guangting City.

With this digging, a large ancient tomb was unearthed. It is now determined to be from the pre-Qin era. It is not the tomb of a king, prince or general, but...

"Well..." Gu Jun frowned and looked at some old photos of grave excavations in the file. The restlessness in his heart was so strong that he wanted to jump out, and some hallucinations flashed before his eyes.

"Huh?" Wu Shiyu over there sensed something and immediately shouted: "Take it easy, take it easy."

He remained silent and did not respond. These were unearthed photos of the victims. They were all piles of bones. The information indicated that they were "buried with bent limbs."

Curved limb burial is a pre-Qin burial method. Contrary to straight limb burial, the lower body of the person is curled up and tied into a ball with a rope before being buried. Burial with bent limbs is a peculiar phenomenon in the history of tombs

, its origin, popular time and area, expression significance and other issues have not yet been determined.

In front of Gu Jun's eyes, he seemed to see these once living people having their limbs broken and twisted into weird and inexplicable shapes...

What was unearthed by these martyrs was not the owner of the tomb, but only a strange stone statue.

"Where are the photos?" Gu Jun murmured, flipping through the information, but couldn't find the photo of the stone sculpture. Even the text description was missing, just the word "weird".

There is nothing in this ancient tomb except the bones of thousands of martyrs and the stone statue. When they were buried alive, they knelt around the statue.

This is obviously a sacrificial ritual.

How did that crazy old archeology professor know there was an ancient tomb here? There isn't even a hole in it, so it's impossible to know it for no reason.

This question remains unsolved to this day, because Liu Daze suffered a bizarre heart attack and died in prison without waiting for the Bureau of Secrets to interrogate him. In the end, he only left a strange sentence when he was rescued. At that time, no one knew what he said. They couldn't record it, and it was even difficult to write it down. They just thought it was the gibberish of a madman.

But the latest situation now is that Tong Ye, who was also present at the time, believes that what the archaeologist was thinking in delirium was that sentence:

Love the Plague Doctor.
