Chapter 60: The True Culprit Appears X Good and Evil

  I calmed down and carefully identified the source of the sound - the middle position of the first cabinet. I came to the cabinet, plucked up my courage, opened the first box, and a cold air rushed towards me. Inside the drawer-like box was a layer of thin membrane like oil paper, and in the middle was a sleeping corpse. I was surprised by her beauty, she looked as if she had just fallen asleep, but her actual age seemed to be over 40 years old, with a still plump face, an oval-shaped melon face, without losing water and becoming dry and scary. Her temperament was very good, giving people the feeling that she came from a noble family.

  She is now sleeping quietly here. There are suture marks below her neck, which can be seen to have been autopsied. I pushed the box back and pulled out a second one. The one lying in the box was not a corpse, but Qing Jiang with his hands and feet tied up.

  I quickly carried her out: "What happened, why are you here, are you okay?"

  The green ginger was so cold that her teeth were chattering. I quickly took off my coat and wrapped it around her: "It's okay, it's okay."

  Qing Jiang warmed up and said with her head down: "Thirteen, thank you."

  "No need for politeness, why are you being stuffed in here? Who did this!"

  "Ah, I don't know...I was called over here and told I could see my sister...when I came up, I found that there was no one here, then it seemed like someone covered my mouth and I fainted...I don't know anything."

  I know this must be the doing of that gauze monster Chen Haixuan, but I don't know why he didn't kill Qing Jiang and instead stuffed her into a coffin in the morgue. Suddenly, I thought of a question: Is he waiting for the Double-Faced Baby to appear before making his move?

  I said to Qing Jiang: "Qing Jiang, from now on, you must never leave me."

  "Is someone trying to kill me? I know it. So hurry up and leave, I don't want to implicate you."

  "It's come to this and you're still talking like that? Follow me, I'll get you out of here."

  I took Qing Jiang with me and walked out the door. My hand tightly grasped hers, Qing Jiang's hand was thin and icy cold, without a hint of warmth.

  I hope I can bring warmth to her.

  Something slowly walked in, surprisingly it was a two-faced baby monster. Its legs seemed to be injured, with several deep wounds, revealing a lot of dark blood. When it saw me, it opened its arms and walked towards me, just like a little kid seeing a loved one wanting a hug.

  Qing Jiang was frightened and cried out. I said: "Don't be afraid, it's an innocent baby who has been used by bad people to frame it."

  The two-faced baby monster walked up to me, and I suddenly realized that its pair of red big eyes now had a human emotional gaze, with a somewhat pitiful feeling. I picked it up, and it quickly stepped onto my shoulder.

  Chen Haixiang appeared at this time, very punctually.

  He still wore a top hat, huge goggles, a skirt and high heels. He appeared like a giant demon in this morgue. I didn't know if he was staring at me, but his face was towards mine, with extremely long hands, just like an ape. I took the Double-Faced Baby from my neck and put it behind me, saying: "Chen Haiyuan, I already knew you were from Shangyuan Village, that you killed Hongmei from Xiayuan Village and the hospitalized person. As for Mr. Wu, I believe he was also killed by you. You brought the Double-Faced Baby here to kill us and frame it for the crime. Unfortunately, the police have long known that the Double-Faced Baby has been used by someone all these years. Your trick won't work."

  I'm not actually very afraid of Chen Haixiang, although he's two heads taller than me. After all, he's an old man and has been burned before - his whole body is still wrapped in gauze from the burns. How could he possibly kill three people in one night? I suddenly realized that I had overlooked this simplest of questions.

  But I only came to realize the problem now, it's already too late. Because behind me, a very sharp and strange voice rang out - "Who says I won't kill?"

  I turned around in terror to see the two-faced baby leaning on Qing Jiang's shoulder, looking at me with a slanted face. Originally, it had two faces, one main face and one smaller secondary face. I had seen both faces' eyes wide open before, but now the main face's eyes were covered by a layer of flesh, as if they were closed. The secondary face's eyes, however, were wide open, and its small mouth was curled up in an evil smile that had never appeared before.

  I was shocked and stuttered: "Y...you can talk?"

  "Why can't I speak? I was born in 1997 and now I'm already 17 years old." The two-faced baby giggled.

  This mutation was too sudden, I never thought it would end like this. I don't know what happened to the two-faced baby, why it suddenly changed from a pure and innocent baby who couldn't resist or think for itself into something so evil, and it told me that last night it killed three people all at once.

  I feel scared, fearful, but what's even more is heart-wrenching. It's like seeing a well-behaved child suddenly turn bad and do something wrong.

  I still couldn't believe everything I saw and heard, I said: "What's going on... you, why did you..."

  "Why is it like this? It's all because of you selfish and cruel people, thanks to whom I can wake up again after 17 years. Now I'm here for revenge. Those who have hurt me will pay the price for their evil deeds."

  "Ginger hasn't harmed you, don't kill her!" I was extremely anxious. My heart was burning with anxiety, but I couldn't rush over and snatch Ginger back.

  The two-faced baby stepped on Qing Jiang's shoulder and said, "But she is from Xiayuan Village, their genes are all flowing with cruel blood."

  Chen Haixuan suddenly spoke up, his voice emerging from the thick gauze: "You've finally woken up again. In 1997, I once sealed you away, but alas, you've been stirring in human society for too long and have been stirred up again... Alas, evil deeds."

  ……

  In 1997, Qing Cheng helped her good sister Hong Mei give birth. When Qing Cheng delivered the baby, she saw a terrifying scene: the towel-wrapped newborn had two faces. Having studied at a medical school, Qing Cheng knew about conjoined twins, so she was only shocked for a moment before calming down. However, what happened next exceeded Qing Cheng's acceptable limits: the main face of the baby closed its eyes as if sleeping soundly, while the secondary face stared wide-eyed with an eerie smile, then raised its left hand to its own neck and made a throat-slitting gesture towards Qing Cheng.

  Qīng chéng was frightened, this baby is not a normal human being at all, it's an evil monster, the embodiment of the devil, and absolutely cannot be left beside Hóng Méi.

  So, she went crazy and hugged the terrifying baby, running desperately outside. She kept running until she reached the edge of a slope when suddenly she heard the baby in her arms say: "Please spare my life, don't kill me..."

  Qīng chéng was so frightened that she became momentarily deranged, fell to the ground, looked at the baby, and then, in a fright, threw the baby to the ground and ran away.

  In the time it took for the eyewitness goat to leave and come back, Chen Haiyan, who had just come out of the village, happened to pass by and saw the double-faced baby.

  Chen Haixian was once a follower of a Jianghu master who traveled extensively throughout the country when he was young, and he understood some of the principles of physiognomy. He could see that the main face of this strange infant belonged to benevolence, while the secondary face belonged to evil, just like the debate over whether human nature is originally good or originally evil - whichever face occupies the dominant position will determine whether it inclines towards good or evil.

  Just born, the infant's body was stained with blood, so the vice face occupied the upper wind. Chen Haiyan originally wanted to throw this evil infant into the wilderness and let the jackals eat it away, but he couldn't bear it because he saw that the main face would occupy the upper wind in the future, so he finally brought the double-faced monster baby to his small wooden house in the forest.

  He decided to gamble on human nature's good and evil.

  Chen Haixiang fed it with Chinese herbal medicine every day, and gradually, the baby grew up, and its main face gradually showed kindness, while its secondary face's evil gradually dissipated. However, when the two-faced baby was 3 years old, that is, in 1999, Chen Haixiang contracted a serious illness and had to leave Leigong Mountain to be hospitalized in the town hospital for treatment. During his lonely stay in the town hospital, Chen Haixiang suffered a man-made arson attack and was severely burned, after which he stayed in the town hospital from then on and never returned to Leigong Mountain again.

  The two-faced monster baby lived alone in the deep mountains and forests, at that time its main face always occupied a dominant position. However, later it was found by Hongmei, who gradually brought it back to the world of humans, where it constantly came into contact with the evil side of human nature, day after day, month after month, until its secondary face slowly began to revive...

  ……

  My heart is getting colder, the twin-faced monster has become like this now, it's all our fault, but I won't let it harm Qing Jiang, absolutely not! However, facing the evil twin-faced monster, with my power, it's fundamentally impossible to rescue Qing Jiang from its hands.

  The tall and imposing Chen Haixian took off his high hat and threw away the frog mirror, I saw that he had a rotten face, very terrifying, his facial skin seemed to be gone, all were red flesh, many places had ulcers, oozing yellowish pus liquid. His lips were also bad, no lips, so he used dark lipstick to draw two large red lips in the position of the lips.
