Although Jin Huo Ma was dead, his 'soul' was revived in Master Tang's body.
He quickly finished eating his own meat, even the bones and internal organs that Master Tang had originally planned to throw away were cooked thoroughly and eaten clean.
Experiencing eating oneself was an extremely perverted feeling of satisfaction that no one but him could understand, in his own words it was even more pleasurable than being with a woman!
The stock was quickly eaten up, and Jin Huo Ma's desire to eat human flesh was inflamed. For a period of time he even thought about cutting some meat off Master Tang to eat. But first, Master Tang was too old and fat, and second, he knew that he was currently residing in Master Tang's body, damaging this body would be detrimental to himself as well.
So he started scouting for prey, wandering around every night, until he came across Xiao Zhang who worked at the supermarket.
The stock clerk was very young, with healthy wheat colored skin, didn't smoke or drink, and smelled very good. Every time he arranged goods, Jin Huo Ma could see his sturdy muscles sliding under his skin, just looking at him, he almost drooled uncontrollably.
He was determined to eat this young man!
At this time he made an unexpected discovery, there was actually an air raid shelter under Master Tang's shop that he only used to store some ingredients. Jin Huo Ma felt it was too much of a waste, so he remodeled it into a kitchen. In his youth Jin Huo Ma had been a bricklayer, so doing this kind of work came easily to him.
Of course, he had to be extremely careful, because he was not the owner of this body, the vast majority of the time it was still occupied by Master Tang.
It took him a month and a half to prepare adequately, he stole a bread truck from the neighborhood, got his tools ready, and carried out the kidnapping.
The plan went very smoothly. To improve the meat quality, he made the stock clerk drink a lot of spices and waited until he was fully digested before cutting his meat. Jin Huo Ma tasted the first piece of meat directly from the knife, but the effect didn't seem to be ideal...
Nevertheless the meat was still very tender and delicious, he cut the meat into pieces and prepared to enjoy it slowly. Unexpectedly at this critical juncture he was discovered by Master Tang, the coward actually threw away the incomplete corpse in fright, and then processed the meat into buns.
When Jin Huo Ma found out afterwards, he was so angry he almost burned down the shop. But on second thought, this didn't seem to be too bad!
He had the idea of 'enlightening the masses', he wanted to sell human meat buns, so that more common people could taste delicious human flesh, and make the whole society accept this perverted behavior, so that eating human flesh would no longer have to be done furtively.
Other than 'enjoying' some himself, most of the buns were sold by Master Tang, watching the customers praise the human meat buns enthusiastically, the excited Jin Huo Ma hiding in Master Tang's body was indescribable!
Soon the stored human meat was used up, and he kidnapped a second person. This time to make the meat even more delicious, he let the victim inhale laughing gas to saturation, then tied off his arteries tightly, and peeled the meat off slice by slice while watching a living person flayed into a skeleton, the pleasure was simply inexpressible.
Processing a living person took a very long time, and his soul could not occupy Master Tang's body for such a long time. As a result, the second corpse was not fully processed before the gutless Master Tang threw it away again.
Jin Huo Ma was both angry and helpless, who made him just a residing soul?
Later he kidnapped a third person. As before when Master Tang discovered what he had done, he was just about to process the corpse, but the police had already eyed this shop, so he could only temporarily leave it in the basement.
Master Tang said, "Actually you just haven't tasted human flesh before. After you taste it, you will know everything I did was right. Humans should be a link in the food chain to begin with. We can eat pigs and cows, so why can't we eat people? Eating a person at their youngest, isn't that a sublimation of life?"
Speaking, he burst into a bout of perverted laughter.
Both Xiaotao Huang and I were dumbfounded, and the clerk next to us was also stunned speechless.
Xiaotao Huang called two policemen to take Master Tang away. Coming out of the interrogation room afterwards, we were silent for a full minute before Xiaotao Huang slowly said, "Simply too perverted!"
"Yes, now I just want to go outside and breathe some fresh air." I chimed in.
We went outside and walked around for a bit before settling down. Xiaotao Huang said, "Do you think Master Tang was really possessed by Jin Huo Ma's ghost?"
"I'm not an atheist, but I don't believe ghosts have that much power. If ghosts were that formidable, what would we need the police for?" I said coldly.
"So he has a split personality?"
"Yes, the weak Master Tang felt guilty and uneasy after committing murder, which gradually led to the emergence of a second personality, and this personality is Jin Huo Ma." I paused, then asked, "How are split personalities handled legally?"
"Our law does not recognize this condition. Ultimately he will still be convicted, but if his lawyer can provide a psychiatric assessment of mental illness from a psychiatric hospital, then maybe he won't have to go to jail but will be sent to a psychiatric hospital instead. However, an extremely dangerous psychiatric patient like this would probably be locked up for life..." said Xiaotao Huang.
"That's great, people like him absolutely cannot be let out again." I sighed.
Xiaotao Huang smiled. "I agree!"
Without realizing it, we had walked a long way. I said, "Let's head back."
"Oh, have to get back to work again, I'm exhausted these past two days." Xiaotao Huang complained.
"Take a good rest after this case is over!" I advised.
"Heh!" Xiaotao Huang smiled wryly and sighed, "After being busy this time, I can be busy again next time. I'll have to wait until retirement to talk about rest! By the way Song Yang, I have a small request."
"Wha...what is it?" I asked shyly.
"Look at you, why are you so nervous around me lately? Am I scarier than a criminal?" Xiaotao Huang pouted angrily.
"No...not at all! Just say your request."
Xiaotao Huang jumped onto a flower bed, stretched out both arms, and said coquettishly, "Actually it's not much, just that my feet are tired from walking, I want you to carry me back."
"Wha...what, in broad daylight? You want me to carry you?" I was so shocked my mouth could fit two eggs.
"What's wrong with broad daylight, you weren't very brave when we were alone either. And no one here recognizes us." Xiaotao Huang tempted.
"No...not proper, I have to go back to school! Goodbye!"
"Humph!" Xiaotao Huang stomped her feet angrily.
Walking some distance away, I looked back and saw Xiaotao Huang still standing on the flower bed, looking at me resentfully. Seeing me look at her, she stretched out both arms again, looking so amusing I wanted to laugh.
Although people were coming and going and quite a few looked at us curiously, I finally gritted my teeth and walked towards her.
"Come on then!" I bent over and said.
"Yay!" Xiaotao Huang pounced on me from behind, and I distinctly felt her weight. She whispered in my ear, "Am I heavy?"
I smiled and answered, "Not at all, not heavy one bit."
