Chapter 4686: White Bones

The three of them left together. The screams from inside the wooden door didn’t stop. Mozhi walked far away and could still hear Ye Jian knocking on the door and screaming, “I want to go out! I want to go out!”

Hahaha…

Get out?

Get out to where?

Go back to China?

Was that possible?

She shouldn’t even think about it.

In the wooden house, Ye Jian slammed the door until her palms hurt. The locked wooden door was never opened. The two men guarding outside let Ye Jian scream and cry.

The children who were playing ran over and picked up the skull that was kicked over on purpose just now. When they heard the cries coming from inside the wooden house, an older child hugged the skull and pretended to be an adult. He placed one hand on his waist and shouted, “If you shout again, I’ll use the ax that we use to split wood to cut off your head!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the children around him imitated him. Killing people didn’t seem to be a big deal to them. It was a very casual small matter.

The two men from Myanmar shouted in a low voice. The children made a few faces at the two of them. The older child threw the skull in his hands to the ground. The children rushed up. One moment, they held it in their hands, and the next moment, they kicked it. The white skull was just a toy to them.

Ye Jian’s eyes turned cold as she listened to their laughter.

“Little Ye, don’t underestimate the children on their side. Children will also use killing weapons to hurt you. Their environment teaches them that killing isn’t a big deal. They can kill anyone who violates their interests.

“Because of the environment, treat the adults and the children in the same way.”

Treat the adults and the children in the same way. At this moment, Ye Jian understood Captain Deng’s advice.

There was only one best solution—eliminate the roots!

After screaming for about ten minutes, Ye Jian seemed to be tired. Her cries slowly stopped, giving the guards outside the wooden house the illusion that she was finally tired.

Ye Jian, who sounded like she was crying and making a fuss, still had clear eyes. There were no tears in them at all. The only thing that made her uncomfortable was her throat.

Rubbing her dry and tense throat, Ye Jian turned around and walked slowly toward the skeleton with light footsteps.

The headless skeleton reminded her of the skull kicked around by the children outside. Then, she looked at the skeleton that was so rotten that the original color of its clothes couldn’t be seen. However, she could tell at a glance that it was a knee-length dress. There was a faint haze in Ye Jian’s eyes.

The dead girl was around 150cm in height. If you looked at the color of her dress carefully, you could see small pink flowers. The fabric should be plain, somewhere between white and grayish green.

Only one of her feet had shoes. It was not a high heel. It was a pair of canvas sneakers with white edges. Ye Jian thought that the deceased was a very young girl.

A very young girl…

Ye Jian, who came with a mission, thought of the more than ten young girls who had gone missing. The average age was 19 years old, with the youngest being 16 years old and the oldest 21 years old. They came from poor mountain villages and left their homes to reduce the burden on their families.

The narcotics police and the criminal police in charge of investigating the cases couldn’t provide all the information about the missing girls. They visited the missing girls’ houses and their neighbors and drew a portrait of the missing girls based on their parents’ appearance.

They were all from families that were poor. They didn’t have photos of the girls.

Fortunately, the criminal police were good at drawing portraits. The portraits drawn were not 100% similar, but they were at least 85% similar.
