花瓶姑娘杀人案件

"传说中在偏僻的山村，有一种古老且罕见的习俗，就是在女童出生之时，将她们放入花瓶，每日如花儿一样培养。这些孩子们在花瓶里成长，身子的尺寸便同那花瓶一般，而露在瓶外的头部则与常人无异。后来人们为此奇特的生物取了名，叫做「花瓶姑娘」。"

——《山村异谭》

"According to legend, in a remote mountain village, there is an ancient and rare custom: when girls are born, they are put into vases and cultivated like flowers every day. These children grow up in the vase, their bodies conforming to the shape of the vase but with ordinary-looking heads exposed outside the vase. People eventually named this strange creature [The Girl in the Flower Vase]."
