On 6 November 2001, the client received a second postcard. Attached: A postcard.

The back of the postcard is still blank, and the two postmarks, the postmark sent to the post office are pasted out, and the postmark of the receiving post office is clear.

The front of the postcard is no longer a deep shade of green, but a little more color.

In the background is the woods that are not shining in the sun, and there are people hanging from a few branches of the woods.

Many, many people.

Most are phantoms, with only one outline. But there are three people, and the appearance is clear.

The three of them seem to have been drawn with the precision of a sketch. Although the overall is not large, it allows people to clearly see their facial features. Two men and one woman, one of whom is middle-aged and the other is young. All three were expressionless, staring ahead. From the details of the facial features, the three people have something in common, and a cursory glance will lead to the conclusion that the three of them are a family.

On November 6, 2001, the client visited.

"Hello, Mr. Shin."

"That's it......"

窸窸窣窣窣......

"I didn't see anyone delivering the postcard this time?"

"No...... You saw that, right? Exactly the same as the three of us in the family! We also have these three sets of clothes at home! That man...... This is a threatening letter! That's a threatening letter! ”

"Please calm down, Mr. Shin."

"How calm I am! I didn't even dare to show this to my parents, I showed them, I was going to scare out the heart attack! That Xiao wins...... What the hell is he doing! What the hell! Our family never thought of asking for money! Suddenly give money, and suddenly like this! Damn ......"

"Mr. Shen, I want to confirm that your current mood is your own emotion, or has it been affected by something?"

"What?"

"This thing is nothing to us, but it may contain something that affects the minds of ordinary people. Mr. Shin, please take a deep breath and tell me now, is your fear, your irritability, out of fear of this implied threat, or is it unwarranted fear? You should understand that, normally speaking, this threat does not work. At least, he can't easily take your family of three to such a forest and hang yourself. ”

"There are no woods that match this picture."

"Yes. There is no forest in Minqing that matches this picture. It is impossible to tell the species of these trees from the pictures, but the density of the trees, and the fact that the woods are full of dead people, cannot be found in the world. ”

“…… Are you sure? ”

"Of course. There are only two forests that we can identify that are associated with death. One is a famous suicide forest, but the actual number of suicides in it is only more than 20 people, five of them committed suicide together, and it is also the beginning of various legends of the suicide forest. The way they use it is not hanging, and they commit suicide more often by taking drugs. There are also many suicides by burning coal in camping huts. ”

"Oh......"

"The other place is called the Forest of Death, which is a tropical jungle. The people who died there were mainly because of the tropical jungle environment, poisonous insects, poisonous snakes, and the harsh climate...... After a certain amount of exploration, and the increase in the number of tools for adventure in the field, it can no longer be called a dead forest. In the past few years, the remains of those adventurers in the past have been discovered, and there are many fewer new deaths. ”

"I think I've heard of this."

"The forest is dangerous, but it's not so mysterious. You don't have to worry. ”

"But this ...... Or a threat, right? ”

"Yes. Just a simple threat, there is nothing to be afraid of. By the way, have you ever been to a wild environment like a forest or a forest in your family? ”

"Nope. Our family doesn't like to travel, so we don't have money or time...... Going to play is also a group tour of attractions. There are more cultural tourist attractions. ”

"Okay. Can you answer my question now? What was the source of your previous fears? ”

"Ah...... This one...... I think it was mostly frightened. Well...... It's the first time I've encountered something like this. Angry, and a little scared. The main thing is to get angry. This incident really has nothing to do with my family. The money was given by Xiao Ying on his own initiative, not by us through improper means. My family has never written back to Xiao Ying. When we received the money, we thought of a lot of ways to contact Xiao Ying. ”

"Hmm."

"Now ......"

"If you can agree, we want to install a camera near your mailbox. In addition, we would like to do an inspection of your home. ”

"Yes, that's fine. You can do it today. ”

On 6 November 2001, the client's residence was inspected and cameras were installed.

November 6, 2001, analysis of audio files.

“…… My mother thought about it for a while, and then she remembered that Xiao Ying was that Xiao Ying......"

"This Ye Kai, there's no problem."

"You can't count these kinds of memories, right? It's all hearsay, and it's been a long time, and the connection is very distant. ”

"It's not credible. Some of the arguments on both sides are the same......"

"They are brothers and sisters, and what they hear is what they hear from their parents. This cannot be counted as evidence. The main reason is that there are too few people who know Xiao Ying and have come into contact with Xiao Ying. ”

"What about the name Xiao Ying?"

"Tens of thousands of people have been found, and there are more than 400 people registered on Minqing, and the age range is screened again, and there are no ones who meet. The name may not be official. This is the same as what Shen Yifan said. ”

"Where's the postcard?"

"Haven't sorted it out yet. Some countries have been very slow to respond. Whew......"

"Ye Kai's postcard is also right?"

"Well, the same, sent from one place every year......"

On 8 November 2001, the client received a third postcard. Attached: A postcard.

The back of the postcard is the same as the first two.

Front, the forest is zoomed in, as if the camera zooms in.

The client's family of three hanging from a tree branch revealed three heads. This time, instead of being expressionless, they bared two rows of teeth and made exaggerated smiles.

Their mouths were grinning, but there was no hint of a smile in their eyes, but rather horror.

Those three mouths seemed to be pulled by something to make such expressions.

Blood seeped from the corners of their mouths and dripped down their jaws, leaving snaked blood marks on their necks.

On November 14, 2001, Xiao Ying's entry and exit route map was sorted out. Attached: A road map.

Three candidates who roughly fit the roadmap were screened.

Attached: Photocopy of the information of the three people:

1. Guan Zusheng, male, born in 1957, from Danzhou, is now engaged in imported food trade, has a self-operated company, and has been operating for 30 years. It was confirmed that there were 14 overlapping itineraries and 8 conflicting itineraries with the New Year's card route map.
