“The Commentary on the Water Classic: The Mian River Section”

In the Mian River, there are creatures resembling

children of three or four years old.

Their scales resemble those of a carp, and their knees are like those of a tiger.

Children do not know.

When someone tries to capture these childlike

creatures for amusement, they will kill the person.

Did you hear anything?

No

Ali Ali

Quick, quick.

Save me

Ali, hurry up and grab this.

Quick, quick.

Recent Unsolved Murders by Unknown Aquatic Creatures.

It happened again today.

At present, the police have been involved in the investigation

The police blocked the crime scene for unknown reasons.

All media are prohibited from entering.

Our station will continue to follow this case.

Detective

detective

No, no, no

Nothing, nothing, nothing.

Nothing, nothing, nothing.

I'll do it myself

What the hell？

Dr. Walker, what are you doing here?

At this rate, our workers will be in danger.

I am very distressed that something happened to them.

You must solve the case as soon as possible.

Don't worry, I will catch the murderer as soon as possible.

Have you found any clues?

Drowning underwater

Unknown wound in abdomen.

Viscera is hollowed out

Brain tissue has disappeared

It's exactly the same as last time

The internal organs are hollowed out again.

It's not selling human organs, is it?

It's kappa

It's Water ghost

Come out and kill people.

In recent years, Meilan River has been seriously polluted.

A lot of fishermen

Have all moved out of here.

Grandpa Kappa no longer has his offerings

He got angry

old man

What are you talking about?

You're here to stir up trouble

I'll arrest you.

Yeah, if he talks again, arrest him.

I'm not talking nonsense.

I heard from my grandfather.

When he was little.

There have been water ghosts in this river.

This water ghost

By imitating the baby's cry

And a woman's voice

Lure people into the river and kill them.

Then

Put people's heart, liver and lungs

And the brain was eaten as well

Then we...

Too scary

old man

You say

the kappa, the water ghost and the water monkey.

What the hell is it called?

In Japan and Southeast Asia, they are called kappa.

Our Chinese world is used to calling it a water ghost.

Mainly refers to the drowning person and abortion infant spirits.

You have to find a scapegoat before you can be reborn.

You make it sound so believable

Then what are they?

Whatever they are,

Anyway.

Not human.

Chief, I suggest that the river be blocked in the near future.

In case someone gets attacked again.

Do you know how many people live by this river?

The economy of the whole town is difficult to maintain.

Fishermen will not agree.

You are a policeman, not a politician.

Ensuring people's safety is the most important thing.

I don't need you to teach me how to be a policeman.

Director

According to the test results,

The wound was not caused by sharp tools such as knives and guns.

What is that?

More like the minions of some animal.

It's not really a kappa, is it

maybe

I guess.

It should be the work of unknown creatures underwater.

For example

Like a big piranha or something.

If it's a big fish

Why didn't the rest of the body get eaten?

Only kappa eat human guts.

Is it looking for a scapegoat to reincarnate?

Shut up

Professor Walker

What brings you here?

The deceased was my worker.

This is the second time.

Can your police department solve this case or not?

Professor

We've arranged for the best detective.

Be sure to solve the case as soon as possible

You can't just rely on detectives.

This matter

Relates to the field of aquatic biology.

You know what?

I recommend someone to you.

Who

Biochemistry expert from China

Minghan

Professor Ming Han

Did you find anything?

I told you it was a kappa.

You just don't believe it.

You are the captain.

Hum

Take me to the river.

Why should I listen to you?

Small white face

act normal

This green liquid

The same substance as the victim's wound

This proves that the two murders must be related.

The body tissues of these animals

It is obviously the trace of being killed by a large animal.

And the process is extremely cruel.

This unknown species

It's probably mutated

Will attack humans

Where were the other two victims found?

In the west of the city

go

Ella, map

What age are you still using maps?

Can't use a mobile phone?

The map will be clearer.

Go back to the mountains later.

There is often no signal there.

Mobile phones naturally become useless.

How far apart are the two crime scenes?

About 60 kilometers

60 kilometers

Generally large animals

You can rest assured.

I'll be there soon by car.

Drive well

What did you just say?

General large freshwater fish

Can swim at least 30 kilometers in an hour

If he's just passing through here,

So after he attacked the first man,

You can get away without a trace.

But three days later, it attacked two more people

It means that this fish

Around this city.

How do you know it was the same fish?

Large aquatic creatures like this

There is only one within a hundred miles of the river.

I understand this.

Two tigers cannot share one mountain

Then what can you do to deal with it?

Let's talk about it when we arrive.

Isn't this what I stepped on that day?

This can't be the scales of that big fish, can it?

How about it?

Did you find anything?

Judging from the actual situation

The two crime scenes are 60 kilometers apart.

I guess if it's really fish.

Let's take this distance

Expand to 100 kilometers at both ends

Then its habitat must be within this range.

As long as this water area is checked.

We can force it to appear.

Our troops are divided into three ways.

Lifei

Lead the team from the east of the city, 20 kilometers east of the crime scene

Widening the net to the west for investigation

Sompa

Take people 20 kilometers west from here.
