On January 5, Ms. Cao of Qinghai complained to a reporter from the public network poster that her 10-year-old son had been killed by a man from the same village on his way to school. The cause of this tragedy may be the accidental death of the man's son. According to media reports, at present, the case has been handed over to the prosecution.
On his way to school, a 10-year-old boy was killed by a man from the same village and buried on the mountain
Ms. Cao is a native of Zhujiazhuang, Yunjiakou Town, Chengdong District, Xining City. She said that at about 7:20 a.m. on November 29, her son Zhang Lei (pseudonym) went out of school. At 9 o'clock, when the second class was held, the teacher called home to say that the child did not go to school, her husband went to the school to find the child, and she and her mother found blood at the entrance of the laneway 100 meters away from home, so they quickly reported the case to the public security organs.
Victim, 10-year-old boy
Ms. Cao said that at six o'clock in the afternoon, the suspect and fellow villager Wang Cheng (pseudonym) was arrested. At three o'clock in the morning of the next day, the child's body was found and pulled to the funeral home.
The death notice provided by Ms. Cao from the Chengdong Branch of the Xining Municipal Public Security Bureau showed that Zhang Lei died in the car.

Zhang Lei died in the car
"I didn't go to see my son's body, I was pregnant, my family wouldn't let me go, and the child was cremated." Ms. Cao said that according to her family, her son had sunk in the forehead and had been stabbed a lot in the body.
"My child has gone so wronged, I now wash my face with tears every day, he has just turned 10 years old." Ms. Cao began to cry again as she spoke, hoping that the public security organs would step up their handling of the case and not spare any bad people.
The victim had played by the river with the suspect's son, but he disappeared after falling into the water
As villagers in the same village, what factors led to this tragedy?
Ms. Cao speculated that this might be related to the death of Wang Cheng's son. She said that on September 21, 2019, shortly after the start of school, her son Zhang Lei went to the village river with six friends, including Wang Cheng's son, 12-year-old Wang Ming (pseudonym). Unfortunately, Wang Ming fell into the water and disappeared, and the body has not been found so far.
Ms. Cao said that her son Zhang Lei told her that when the six of them were playing with mobile phones and Wang Ming was playing on the cable car on the river, he heard a voice and looked up to see Wang Ming fall into the river. They chased for about fifty or sixty meters, and then a second-year child who went to play with them called the police.
Ms. Cao said that the seven children at that time, including her son Zhang Lei, Wang Ming and two of his classmates, Zhu Xuan (pseudonym) and two of his classmates. Zhang Lei, Wang Ming, and Zhu Xuan are in the same village, and Zhang Lei is the youngest.
"My son especially likes to make friends, and Wang Ming often comes to my house to play." Ms. Cao said.
"In the afternoon of the same day, the police called the 6 children who were present at the time to identify the scene, and the public security organs also went to the school to investigate my children." Ms. Cao recalled, "In a village, when such a thing happened, my husband also took a leave of absence to follow Wang Ming. ”
Ms. Cao said that the police confirmed that Wang Ming accidentally fell into the water, but Wang Chengjia did not approve. After the incident, Wang Cheng and his wife came to her house three or four times. When he first came, Wang Cheng's attitude was acceptable, and his wife was particularly emotional. The second time I came, the family was making dinner, and the other party said, "Your children have been studying for eight or nine days, and our children are gone."
The third time Wang Cheng's family came to Ms. Cao's house was more than a month after Wang Ming fell into the water. "Wang Cheng's wife has a rather bad attitude, she said that your children and our children went out to play together, and killed our children." But we can also understand the mood of their families. Ms. Cao said.
"The police station said that his two sons often went to the school gate to intercept other children." Ms. Cao said that her son Zhang Lei also said that Wang Cheng and his wife had looked for him at the school gate, but he ignored it and got on the bus and left.
"The school has also reported the case to the public security organs. I didn't expect such an outcome to happen. Ms. Cao said that Wang Cheng's wife once sent a quick hand saying that these six children were at ease when they killed his children.
