Hunter of the Forbidden Region Chapter 103: Into the mountain
When night fell, Aruna, a Mongolian female police officer, received a call from home and asked her to return home.
Traditional Mongolians live in water and grass, without a fixed place. The so-called home is actually a mobile yurt.
Aruna is a traditional Mongolian ethnicity, but as a public official with a fixed income, she naturally no longer has to live a nomadic life. Instead, she made a home for her dependent mother on the northern shore of Hotun Lake.
Huotun Lake is about ten kilometers away from the police station, and it is quite convenient to drive back and forth.
My yurt is so big that even under this hazy starry sky, you can see the outline from afar.
Light leaked from the cracks in the yurt. These subtle lights are the beacon for Aruna to return home.
Parking the car outside the yurt, Aruna just opened the door in the cockpit and smelled a scent.
This is the smell of horse intestines, mutton, and naan that are just out of the pot. For Aruna, this is the taste of home.
I opened the door curtain, and under the light, a stalwart figure came into view.
This man has gray hair and a large skeleton. Even if he is sitting on the edge of the table, he feels like standing upright.
Next to the man is his short and thin mother.
Seeing Aruna's return, the woman hurriedly smiled and stood up, welcoming Aruna: "Aruna, your father is back."
Ajuna was startled, then she turned away without saying a word.
Walking to the door, and just touching the curtain of the door with her hand, Aruna paused for a while, and asked in a deep voice, "Do I have a father?"
After saying this, the female police officer lifted the curtain, and her tall figure disappeared into the yurt.
The sound of a car started outside the door, and the roar of the engine cut through the sky, and soon went away.
Listening to these movements, the stalwart figure in the yurt seemed to shrink a little.
He sighed and said in a deep voice: "Don't blame her, blame myself."
"Don't say such things." Aruna's mother looked out the door for a while, then turned around and said, "It's fine to come back. What have you done these years? I heard that you were in jail in China ?"
"Yes." The man sighed, "I have been in jail for twenty years."
"Then why don't you give me a message? I'd better go see you."
"After I went in, I didn’t expect to be able to come out alive. I thought that this would be the case in this life, so why bother you any more. I think you’ll wait for a while to see if I won’t come back, the helplessness of orphans and widows , I remarried. This is good for both of you. This time I came out, I just wanted to take a look at you from a distance to make sure you are safe. I didn’t expect you to recognize me at a glance when you were a few hundred meters away."
"Your head is easy to recognize."
"Why didn't you remarry? Why wait for me for so many years?"
"I couldn't wait so long." The woman said softly, "But after waiting for three years, I think I have waited for three years, so it's better to wait for another three years. After waiting for ten years, I think it's been ten years. Wait ten years. Just go by like this and you will come back."
After the man heard these words, his back began to tremble, and he choked up: "I am a nine-foot man in Ping An, I have stood upright to everyone in this life, but I have failed you both."
This man is the former guardian of the Cao family, and the boxer is safe.
Thirty years ago, his first trade after becoming a master was to kill a group of horse bandits on this grassland.
The business was done. He was seriously injured, struggling to walk a few kilometers, and fell in front of a yurt.
Thirty years later, this yurt still stands, but the girl inside is already gray-haired.
……
In the early morning of the next day, as soon as it was light, the four of Lin Shuo got up.
Anne first went to the morgue of the police station. Together with the young female forensic doctor, she took the body tissue of the victim and asked the Outer Mongolian police to send it to the Lanzhou Institute of Biology.
Yang Tuo, is the new dean there.
After everything is ready, everyone is ready to go.
Different from yesterday’s stretch, the police station sent two vehicles today.
Lin Shuo and Anne, sitting in a police car driven by Aruna, cleared the road ahead.
Wei Xingshan was warned by Lin Shuo yesterday, but he was quite honest. He and Liu Qing got in another car driven by Sukhba.
Lin Shuo and Anne learned about the situation yesterday and knew that the two victim locations they were going to were more than a hundred kilometers apart. They traveled in a circle, and that day passed.
The thoughtful Anne found that today, the female police officer, Aluna, looked worse than yesterday, with a tight face.
Aruna looks heroic and has three-dimensional features. The way she laughs is very contagious, but once she lowers her face, Anne feels that the atmosphere in the entire carriage is depressing.
This makes Anne feel a little strange. It stands to reason that this Ajuna had treated Lin Shuo differently. Yesterday, Lin Shuo showed such a hand in the meeting room. This Ajuna should be more towards Lin Shuo. Respect is a plus.
But this is not the case in reality. The female police officer had a calm face early in the morning and seemed to be in a bad mood.
Anne can't help thinking: Who is this expression for? Chong Lin Shuo, that's impossible.
Is she here for me?
This thought made Anne a little bit ridiculous, and she quickly put aside her thoughts.
Lin Shuo seemed to have little roots in these things. He first asked Anne about the situation of the victim’s autopsy in the morning. After learning that the results were consistent with the time report of Miao Guangqi 30 years ago, he closed his eyes. Started to doze off.
But the two people asked and answered, but they attracted Aruna's attention.
The female police officer asked: "Do you mean that there have been similar cases before?"
"Yes." Anne said, "In Qinghai Province, China, a thousand kilometers away, there was a similar case thirty years ago."
"Oh, that case was also handled by your International Biological Research Association?"
"No. At that time, the International Society for Biological Research had no experience in handling xenobiotic cases. It was handled by a non-governmental organization in China."
"Does the insider handle it?"
"Sergeant Aruna, do you know the person at the door?" Anne was a little surprised.
"My father is a Chinese doorman." Aruna said softly, "When I was a child, he told me a lot of things in the door. I remember that in China, once such incidents happen, they It was the hunter who sent someone to deal with it. If I didn’t guess wrong, Mr. Lin, he should be the hunter, right?"
"Not bad." Lin Shuo opened his eyes and looked at Aruna from the rearview mirror in the car. "Sergeant Aruna, do you have a Chinese name?"
Lin Shuo knew early in the morning that this Aruna was not simple. From her ability to chase her on her back, she could see that her strength level was not a normal person.
With her hand, let alone Wei Xingshan, even Anne can't do it.
This is a pedigree with inheritance, but in a foreign country, he may not know the rules of the sect.
Lin Shuo intends to take a look at her. As long as she reports her Chinese surname, Lin Shuo will know what her father's surname is, and Lin Shuo will be able to feel the inheritance of her.
Except for a few common surnames in China, the family members have been open since ancient times. It is difficult to determine the way they are based on a surname alone, but most of the surnames still have very clear information.
Plus the power to highlight this attribute, the scope is very small.
In the previous trip outside Xing'an Mountains, Lin Shuo once ignored Liu Shunfu, the emissary of the Dragon King, and didn't touch him when he first met, which made himself very passive.
Lin Shuo doesn't want to make a similar mistake this time.
As far as Aruna's strength has been demonstrated before, the inheritance in her is worthy of Lin Shuo's attention.
But I didn't expect Lin Shuo to throw out this question. The female police officer's expression just became cheerful and gloomy again.
"I don't have a Chinese name, I will follow my mother's last name." She said coldly, and then continued to drive away intently.
Lin Shuo and Anne looked at each other, and both saw confusion in each other's eyes.
The two nodded tacitly at the same time.
There is something here.
……
The 400-millimeter rainfall line in Eurasia marks the boundary between farming civilization and nomadic civilization.
To the south of this line, abundant rains allowed crops to grow, which gave birth to a farming civilization. To the north of this line, it is difficult to grow crops, and humans can only go nomadic and live in water and grass.
The grassland area north of the 400 millimeter rainfall line of Eurasia, the terrain is getting higher and higher from west to east, and it is getting more and more barren.
Northern China, the Mongolian Plateau, is a relatively barren land, even if it is nomadic, it is very difficult.
This is also the reason why the grassland peoples in the north have continued to move south and westward at the same time since ancient times.
Lin Shuo's car was bumping on the grassland~IndoMTL.com~ More than an hour later, he arrived at the location of the first attack.
It's already November in the solar calendar. This is the westernmost part of the Mongolian Plateau, and the vegetation is withered.
The herders have already stopped herding, looking for water sources, and preparing for the winter.
The location of the first incident was by the lake.
This lake, called Hu'ergan Lake, is one of the three large lakes in the national park.
This is the southern bank of Lake Hurgan, four or five kilometers further south, is the Altai Mountains that stretch for thousands of miles.
After everyone got out of the car, they surveyed the scene, and as expected, they found the string of footprints in the swamp by the lake.
Anne extracted the soil under her footprints and entrusted the Mongolian police with her to send it to Yang Tuo, and then looked at Lin Shuo, waiting for his next instructions.
"There is no need to go to the location of the second case." Lin Shuo said, "Let's go into the mountains."
