There was something wrong with Chen Xing.
His words couldn't have been a coincidence. He was referring to Alien Hand Syndrome …
Facing Chen Xing's strange smile, Gu Jun's heart sank. Did Chen Xing have a relationship with Lin Jing after his schizophrenia, or was Lin Jing responsible for Chen Xing's schizophrenia? What was the reason, what was the sequence, and when?
Many chaotic thoughts surged in Gu Jun's mind. His hand was still pressing hard on the front of the shared bicycle, but his eyes suddenly noticed something else.
Because of this, Chen Xing loosened his grip slightly. He immediately pedaled his bike and rode away. He continued to circle around the basketball court, round and round.
The three old men on the bench did not pay any attention to the conversation between the two and continued to doze off.
The old men didn't care either. Another figure walked towards the basketball court. She was still a dozen meters away and stood there, at a different intersection from Cao Yicong and the others.
Gu Jun saw it and knew who it was. It was the other "monster" in the alley, Lu Jiamin, 16 years old.
It was hard to associate her with the term "young girl." She wore tattered old clothes and was rather tall. The right side of her face had the beauty of a young girl, but the left side of her face was a twisted scar caused by a serious burn. The upper half of her forehead and head were the same, and the lower half of her neck and shoulders were the same. Her left sleeve was half-empty. The burn had also caused her left hand to be deformed and underdeveloped.
Lu Jiamin's parents had always wanted a son, but they couldn't give birth to a daughter.
She was the fifth of five daughters, but according to medical records, she was actually the seventh. The other two sisters had been given away by their parents to be raised.
This was a well-known and violent family in the village. The husband and wife fought, fought with others, occupied land, quarreled with neighbors, and so on.
This Lu Jiamin often participated in these fights as she grew older. She didn't even need to do anything. She could scare the ordinary villagers with her punches.
Strange, difficult, and scary. Therefore, the villagers didn't have much sympathy for her. Instead, they privately called her a monster.
At this time, Lu Jiamin stood there, clearly looking over.
The basketball court was surrounded by houses and villages. There were roads for cars to enter and exit, as well as muddy alleys with weeds, littered with rubbish, and free-range chickens and ducks. It was afternoon. The villagers were either at work, in the fields, at home, or at school. There was no one outside.
Therefore, Lu Jiamin stood out even more.
As long as I can win one yuan each time, I can earn almost three hundred yuan a day. That's close to ten thousand yuan a month. That's one hundred and twenty thousand yuan a year … If I open one more computer, I can double my earnings. If I open ten computers, I can earn ten times that amount. Ten yuan each time, that's one million and two hundred thousand yuan a year. That's enough, that's enough. I can earn one million and two hundred thousand yuan a year … That's enough, that's enough … "
Chen Xing rode his bicycle around again, passing by Gu Jun. He was mumbling to himself. This time, it was clearer. He was calculating and daydreaming.
Gu Jun's gaze suddenly turned in another direction. To the south, opposite Lu Jiamin, a hunchbacked old woman was hobbling over. She was wearing the old-fashioned clothes that she had tailored herself. She was one of the children with the Tang Syndrome in the alley. Everyone called her "Ah Meng."
Ah Meng was kind and polite. She would ask about everyone's well-being. She had the intelligence of a child, so the villagers took care of her.
As the country's prenatal screening rate was still underdeveloped, not every pregnant woman was screened for Down's syndrome. Even now, at this moment, in this country, there was a child born with Down's syndrome every twenty minutes, let alone an elderly person like Ah Meng.
That was not Abnormal Infant Disease. That was … Down's syndrome.
Gu Jun's eyes narrowed. Not far behind Ah Meng, there was a short middle-aged man walking over. He was also one of the children with the Tang Syndrome. He also had an innocent smile on his face. But why would they be here at the same time? Where are their guardians?
"Captain Wang, Vice Captain Cao." Gu Jun immediately used the walkie-talkie to communicate with Wang Ke and Cao Yicong. "Something's wrong! Attention, attention, there are many 'negative selection' patients in the alley. They are gathering at the basketball court at the end of the alley. "
He had a bad feeling about this. He immediately reported to Eastern State's command central and the headquarters.
But the worst had happened. The signal had become very bad. He could hear muffled questioning voices, but his own voice did not seem to be able to come out.
Cao Yicong and the rest, who were not far away, hurried over. They pulled out the pistols they carried and looked around cautiously.
The three old men were still asleep, and Chen Xing was still riding his bicycle in circles. He said something that was even more confusing. "1.2 million to buy a condominium with a sea view. Doesn't he want to go out? I'm talking about him. The mountain view is fine. The air in the mountains is better. I can choose anything I want, but I don't want to study. No, I just don't want to …"
"Hello, everyone." On the other side, even though Ah Meng was moving slowly, he still approached. He smiled at the group of outsiders. His face was full of wrinkles, but at the same time, he looked like a child. "Have you eaten? Are you looking for someone? I'll bring you there. I know them all. "
Before Gu Jun could figure out how to answer Ah Meng, he saw a figure pushing a wheelchair appear from an alley to the east.
Li Zipeng, known as' Young Peng 'by his family, was the teenager with cerebral palsy in the alley.
If a child with cerebral palsy trained from a young age, there was a chance that their physical condition would improve greatly. Young Peng's intelligence was not damaged, and his motor ability should have recovered to the level where he could take care of himself. However, due to his family's lack of financial resources, he did not receive much physical therapy when he was young, and he had missed the best recovery period.
Young Peng did not go to school. He looked dull, uncommunicative, and afraid of strangers. He would only smile when facing strangers.
But now, the smile on Young Peng's face was not a smile, but fear, anxiety, and tears. It was like he was being threatened.
"They …"
"Look over there. That's Liang Tao."
Other than Gu Jun, Cao Yicong and the rest of the investigators knew that things were not looking good. As they called for backup, they kept their eyes on their surroundings.
On Lu Jiamin's side, a middle-aged man with a drooping head appeared. Liang Tao, the other schizophrenic in the alley.
Liang Tao, who had PTSD after witnessing the tragic car accident, was in a stable condition compared to Chen Xingyao. He did not have aggressive behavior, but he had a phobia disorder. He was unwilling to go out and socialize with others. He usually locked himself in his room, and he often had headaches. These were all symptoms of PTSD.
But now, Liang Tao had walked out of his room, out of his house, and was gathering at the basketball court.
