There were many things in this world that could give people a terrifying feeling if the order is changed, especially limbs. The body in front of them was extreme twisted, and the indescribable weirdness of the disheveled pieces of the body had spelt out letters. All the smokers lit their cigarettes and suppressed the churning feelings in their stomach. Gong Sun smiled, "You know, these things are more disgusting when it's in order compared to when it's out of order, especially the corpses."

"How long have they been dead?" Bai Yutang asked Gong Sun.

"Three days." Gong Sun put out the cigarette in the cigarette case, then put on his gloves. "We didn't dare go in. We want you to take a look at it first."

Bai Yutang nodded, squatted down and looked at the incisions carefully. Then he asked Gong Sun, "Isn't this cut too neat?"

"Indeed." Gong Sun nodded, "It was done by someone who has professional medical knowledge, and who is proficient in anatomy."

Everyone's attention were on the bodies. However, Zhan Zhao had raised his feet carefully to avoid the blood as he walked into the living room.

"Cat?" Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao questionably. He saw Zhan Zhao walk slowly into the middle of the living room and stare at an unfinished jigsaw puzzle on the coffee table.

It was a robot cat jigsaw puzzle. The style was very cute, but it was only half completed. There was a blank space in the middle.

"It's probably what the children was doing..." Luo Tian looked down and said, feeling a little lost.

Zhan Zhao walked past the coffee table, stood in front of the sofa and stared down at the puzzle carefully.

Everyone was attracted by Zhan Zhao's strange behavior. Bai Yutang and Gong Sun looked at each other. They stood up, went up next to Zhan Zhao, and looked down at the puzzle.

Zhan Zhao suddenly raised his head and looked around with a bit of anxiousness in his eyes, as if he were looking for something.

"What are you looking for cat?" Bai Yutang reached out, patted Zhan Zhao and asked in a low voice.

"There's another one..." Zhan Zhao said softly as he walked out of the crowd. He turned anxiously around the room, before his eyes finally fell onto a shoebox that was at the living room entrance.

He walked quickly over, squatted down in front of the shoe box, and looked back at Bai Yutang nervously.

When Bai Yutang walked over with everyone, he saw Zhan Zhao gently tugging at the lid of the shoe box. It slowly opened, and everyone sucked in a cold breath. They saw a four or five-year-old girl curled up inside. Her eyes were wide open, as they stared closely at the everyone. It could be seen from her slightly moving chest that she was still alive.

"Call an ambulance!" Bai Yutang shouted, as Bai Chi quickly called an ambulance.

Zhan Zhao reached out and waved in front of the little girl's eyes. She did not even blink.

Gong Sun leaned over to look at her, before saying in a low voice, "There is something wrong with her pupils. The child is frightened."

Bai Yutang reached out and lifted the baby. She did not react, and it was obvious that she had been hiding inside for three days, as she was extremely weak.

Soon, the doctor came and took the little girl onto the ambulance. Bai Chi and Luo Tian went with her, leaving the others to continue inspect the scene.

Everyone was busy. Only Zhan Zhao sat on the sofa, looking down at the jigsaw puzzle in a trance.

"Cat, although this puzzle is related to you, you don't have to look at it like that." When Bai Yutang saw Zhan Zhao's serious expression, he couldn't help but tease him.
