After saving the child, I was already trembling from the cold. Under this temperature, the whole body will get soaked and hypothermia. I tremblingly said to Huang Xiaotao: "clothes... clothes off..."

They hurried forward and stripped off the wet clothes between me and the boy. Song Xingchen took off his coat and put it on me, Huang Xiaotao also took off his coat and put it on the boy.

The child’s mother ran over, held the child and cried, and said, "Thank you, thank you, you are all my saviors!"

I was tightly wrapped in Song Xingchen's white windbreaker and couldn't speak. I saw Song Xingchen's complex expression, both reproach and helpless, but in this situation, he didn't say anything.

Huang Xiaotao said to the mother: "It's okay, go to the hospital for the child, I am afraid that I will have a fever if I am so cold."

After the boy was picked up by his mother, he suddenly said: "Mom, there is a water ghost under the water grabbing my feet."

When we heard this, we looked at each other and I asked, "Are you sure you are a person?"

The little boy nodded, and his mother cried out in horror: "Don't talk nonsense!"

I urged: "Go to the hospital, don't delay!"

My mother left thankfully. I was tired and sat on the ground. A few people came to ask me how I was doing. I said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." I have plenty of yang energy and strong energy and blood. You won't get sick from this cold.

The scene that happened just now was too sudden. Thinking back carefully, that piece of ice seems to be weaker than other places, and just after my head went into the water, I vaguely saw something underwater, but the water was very turbid. I can't be sure.

According to my experience and speculation, there may have been a corpse throwing case here. The lake was frozen in the winter. A hole was made and people were thrown in. It was about a month after the freezing, and the corpse would have rotted long ago. Human-shaped, after all, the fish and shrimp under the water also need food in winter.

This kind of case has not happened before, but it has not happened in Nanjiang City. I heard that some underworlds in the northeast love to do it.

I expressed my thoughts, and Huang Xiaotao frowned: "The water temperature is so low, and the salvage is extremely difficult. Even if you send divers down, you won’t be able to support it for long. You have to figure it out before you can salvage, or else it’s a waste of manpower.

Sun Bingxin asked: "Would you like to borrow a piece of equipment from the Hydrographic Bureau to see the underwater situation?"

I waved my hand: "No need to spend that thing, Bing Xin, you go and buy two bottles of drinks, and then buy a pair of tennis or badminton rackets, some ropes to tie things, a strong fishing line, and then on the way back. Pick up a stone... By the way, buy me another dress, it's too cold."

Wang Dali volunteered to accompany Sun Bingxin courageously. I sat there and shivered. Song Xingchen reprimanded distressedly: "Young master, next time you encounter this kind of thing, don’t charge up by yourself, I’ll be there. Nearby."

I smiled: "How could I turn a blind eye."

"Oh, you!" Song Xingchen shook his head.

"By the way, can you contact the sword god? I have something to ask him." I said.

"Is it important? I'll contact him later."

Waiting for a while, Sun Bingxin and Wang Dali came back with a big bag. Sun Bingxin thoughtfully bought me a bottle of hot drink. After drinking, I felt more comfortable, and I thanked her.

I got dressed and I started to prepare. I cut a bottle in half, opened holes in the caps of the two bottles, passed them through with nylon thread, and tied a heavy object to the other bottle.

A simple underwater listening device is ready. This is actually a flexible use for listening to the bones. Then I tied a tennis racket to my feet with a rope and approached the hole carefully. To be honest, I almost fell into it just now, and now I'm really a little embarrassed.

When I was approaching the hole, I threw the bottle with the heavy object in it, stretched the nylon thread, and buckled the other end of the bottle on my right ear so that I could hear the sound of the water.

Under the sturdy ice shell, it’s not calm at all. Some fish are swimming around, and the water is constantly fluctuating. The first time I used this trick, it took a long time to get used to it, and the bottom of my mind slowly began to appear. Of the image.

I'm good at plucking the nylon thread, like plucking a string, making the other end vibrate under the water, creating an echo.

I closed my eyes and listened attentively. There seemed to be a humanoid object at the bottom of the water, and there was a cage-like object around it. Of course, my impression was rather vague, but I was sure that it was a person.

Finally, I collected the tools and said, "Call someone to salvage, there is a corpse underwater!"

Half an hour later, a nearby branch sent a salvage team. We asked all the surrounding people to retreat to the outside of the lake. Huang Xiaotao asked Wang to help vigorously, and the two of them blocked a circle of warning lines along the lake.

The water below is very cold. The diver has only a thin rubber jacket on his body, which is not able to keep out the cold. He swallowed a few chocolates and poured a large mouthful of hot water before putting on a respirator, holding the rope in his hand. Jump into the hole.

We waited anxiously beside us, when suddenly the rope was tightened, and the people on the shore shouted: "Pull!"

Everyone worked together and pulled the rope up. The diver came up first. He looked frozen, not much better than I was just now. The people on the shore hurriedly took him to a small tent next to him to get warm.

Next, the ice shell cracked a large piece with a click, and a huge object was dragged out. It was a wicker cage with big holes. Inside it was a middle-aged man in a suit. His hands and feet were all tied up. The whole person had been tied forcibly.

After leaving the water, a thin layer of ice quickly formed on his body, which stuck to the ice crust.

Sun Bingxin said in surprise: "What is that?"

I wondered: "It feels like a bamboo cage used to transport pigs in the countryside...soak the pig cage!?"

There is no doubt that this is the ancient lynching-pig cage immersion, but this kind of lynching is often used to punish women who do not obey women's ways. I have never heard of it being used against men.

As the corpse appeared, the onlookers shouted in exclamation. It was cold and unobstructed. I suggest going back to the bureau for an autopsy. So Huang Xiaotao said to the salvage team: "You guys have worked hard, please take the corpse. Send it back to the bureau!"

We went back to the city bureau with the car and moved the corpse. I saw Zheng Ju standing at the door. On a cold day, he was still dressed in a suit and leather shoes. I thought he was here to scold us, and he took the initiative to plead guilty: "I'm sorry, you won't have a peaceful life on the first day of the new year."

Zheng Ju sternly said: "I have heard about the situation. I really didn't expect that the body would be found today. This is the first time in Nanjiang City. If you need manpower, just say it."

I said: "Thank you, our task force can handle it."

"That's fine, I'm in the office, you can come to me anytime."

When he was about to leave, I stopped him and asked: "July Zheng, there is one thing I want to ask you. Twenty years ago, Uncle Sun was in charge of a wive-killing alliance case. Have you ever heard of it? Right?"
