Bai Xiaomi nodded, she had Zhen Xiubo's mother's mobile phone number. Zhang Chi asked Bai Xiaomi to contact Zhen Xiubo's family, and Zhan Minglu's matter gave him a bad premonition. After Bai Xiaomi made this call, her face changed slightly, and she whispered: "Zhen Xiubo came out early in the morning, and her family said that she came to the school to clean up." ”

Luo Shiqi said: "Maybe the two of them made an appointment to go shopping." "I always feel that there is no danger in broad daylight.

Bai Xiaomi shook her head, this possibility is almost none, as far as she knows, Zhen Xiubo and Zhan Minglu are not good friends, shopping together? It should be impossible, and they should have come to the academy to clean up today, Zhan Minglu is an active member of various activities in the school, and rarely takes the initiative to be absent from such activities.

Zhang Chi asked them to call the students who had been notified today but did not come, and the mobile phones of the five students were all turned off, things would not be so coincidental, Zhang Chi asked Bai Xiaomi to report this matter to the college immediately, he had a premonition that something had happened, and the classmates had lost contact before the school started, and the beginning of the semester was not peaceful.

Missing contact does not mean missing, the college immediately contacted the student's family after receiving the notification, the dean Qu Yangming immediately decided, mobilized the college to contact all students, do not contact do not know, a contact was shocked, preliminary statistics, there are fifteen students missing, and these fifteen students are second-year students.

Zhang Chi was the first to notice the abnormality of the situation, and when they learned that fifteen of their classmates were missing, they were also taken aback, and Zhang Chi thought that it was a conspiracy against the academy.

According to the preliminary understanding of the situation, it can be judged that the loss of contact occurred today, including several local students in Beijing, and there are also students who went to Beijing from other places, and the reason for the loss of contact is not clear.

The college responded urgently, and they issued a notice that all students would postpone their return to campus, and those who had already returned to campus would be allowed to move into the college dormitories and not go out for the time being.

Although the students were lost during the summer vacation, it does not mean that the college does not need to take responsibility, for this class of second-year students, it is really a lot of disasters, fifteen people have lost contact, and most of them are girls, among which Zhang Chi's second class has eleven people missing.

Qu Yangming held an emergency internal meeting, and many parents of students have reported the case, the nature of this matter is extremely serious, in Qu Yangming's opinion, it is not even inferior to the last Hell Valley incident, last time at least he knew where the students were trapped, and this time there was no sign at all, which caught all of them off guard.

"Where's Director Cao?"

It's time for the meeting, Cao Mingmin hasn't arrived yet, this is still a rare thing, Qu Yangming said to Professor Liang: "Have you notified Director Cao?"

"The notice has passed. ”

Professor Liang called Cao Mingmin again, looked at Qu Yangming with some astonishment, and said, "She turned off the phone." ”

Qu Yangming's heart sank, first the students lost contact, then the teachers, one after another, it was no accident.

Professor Liang said: "Many parents of students have already reported the case, but the longest time they have been missing is less than 24 hours, which is not up to the standard for the police to file a case. ”

Professor Meng said, "Dean, do you want to contact the Secret Bureau to assist in the investigation of this matter?"

It was clear to everyone that it would be impossible for the Academy alone to solve this matter, and that the longer it dragged on, the greater the danger of these lost teachers and students.

Qu Yangming said: "I will talk to them, everyone be more careful." "Although I don't know the reason behind this disappearance, everyone is in danger at the moment, and the strength of the academy alone can't take care of so many people, but this disappearance is too bizarre.

In the classroom, Zhang Chi wrote the list of all the missing people, Luo Shiqi and Liu Zhengyuan watched from the side, but Bai Xiaomi was gone.

Zhang Chi said: "There are already fifteen people, I hope this number will not continue to rise." ”

Luo Shiqi said, "Could it be that he met the Soul Eater?" He now contacted the Soul Eater for everything.

Zhang Chi said, "Soul Eaters usually don't appear openly in the ordinary world, and the aura here is not enough to support their survival. ”

"But the Zhongzhou Ruins have collapsed, the aura is leaking, and the concentration of aura around us is getting higher and higher, so there will be so many new students this year, and they are all awakened because the concentration of aura has changed. ”

Liu Zhengyuan listened from the sidelines, he had not personally experienced the Zhongzhou Market incident, and he did not have much say in this matter.

Zhang Chi said: "Fifteen people have lost contact one after another, it can't be a soul eater attack, it should be a planned collective attack, but now there is no conclusive evidence to prove that they are in danger, just temporarily lost contact." ”

Luo Shiqi said: "Is it still a continuation of the Zhongzhou Market incident?"

Zhang Chi said: "Zhan Minglu did not participate in the research in Hell Valley, why did she also lose contact? Among the students who lost contact, seven did not participate in the last research activity. ”

Liu Zhengyuan couldn't help but say: "Maybe it's to interfere with the line of sight." ”

Zhang Chi and Luo Shiqi looked at him at the same time.

Liu Zhengyuan said: "In detectives, usually when professional criminals commit crimes, they will set up some illusions to cover up the motives of the crime. ”

Zhang Chi nodded, thinking that Liu Zhengyuan made a lot of sense.

Bai Xiaomi came back at this time, she called Zhang Chi out, and whispered the news of Cao Mingmin's disappearance to Zhang Chi, and the matter became more and more serious.

"What did the dean say?" asked Zhang Chi.

Bai Xiaomi said: "The dean asked you to go to Dean Han's house to have a look." ”

Zhang Chi said, "Dean Han?"

Bai Xiaomi nodded and said, "Dean Han's mobile phone can't get through either." ”

Zhang Daxian secretly shouted that it was not good, the old lady would not also lose contact, right?

Zhang Chi came to the door of Mrs. Han's house, knocked on the door, and after a while, she saw Mrs. Han come out and open the door, the old lady was taking a lunch break, and she didn't know what was happening in the academy, and she couldn't help but be a little stunned when she saw Zhang Chi: "Zhang Chi, why are you here?"

Zhang Chi was relieved to see that the old lady was safe and sound: "It's okay, Dean Qu has never been able to get through when he calls you, so let me come over and have a look." ”

Mrs. Han smiled: "I just don't want to trouble, so I turned off my phone, this Qu Yangming always wanted to ask me to help in the basic department recently, but I retreated, and it was only two days after I was cleaned." ”

"Dean Han, something big has happened to the academy. ”

Mrs. Han was slightly stunned: "What?"

Zhang Chi told her about the collective disappearance, and Mrs. Han said: "How is it possible? Cao Mingmin was at my house this morning, and she chatted with me for a long time. ”

"She left you?"

Mrs. Han nodded, she went to get her mobile phone and called Qu Yangming back, and after the call ended, she said to Zhang Chi: "I'm going to go out immediately." ”

Zhang Chi knew that her going out must have something to do with this incident, so he nodded.

After Zhang Chi left the dormitory, he did not return to school, but went to find Lu Jianqiang, although the collective disappearance incident has not yet reached the standard of formal filing, but Zhang Chi believes that the police should be intervened in time, with the help of the ubiquitous monitoring system, it is conducive to finding clues in the shortest possible time, and his idea has also been approved by Qu Yangming.

Lu Jianqiang has not heard of the collective disappearance of the academy, after listening to Zhang Chi finish this matter, he immediately judged that the nature of this incident was very serious with his rich experience in criminal investigation, Zhang Chi did not want to make this matter public, mainly to use their personal relationship.

The two decided to start with Lu Jianqiang's jurisdiction, Lu Jianqiang called up the monitoring of the higher vocational dormitory, and found Cao Mingmin in the monitoring according to the timeline, after Cao Mingmin left the higher vocational dormitory, he went to the gas station to refuel, and after refueling, he did not drive to the campus, but entered the highway all the way.

Lu Jianqiang contacted the highway side and provided Cao Mingmin's license plate number, and soon the other side gave feedback, Cao Mingmin's car was parked in the first service area after leaving the city, but there was no one in the car.

After getting the news, Lu Jianqiang decided to take Zhang Chi immediately to see what happened to Cao Mingmin's car.

Before Qu Yangming came to the door, An Chongguang had already heard about what was happening at the academy.

When Qu Yangming came to his office, An Chongguang was browsing the information of the missing person, and he said to Qu Yangming: "Sit!"

Qu Yangming sat down and said, "Director An, since eight o'clock this morning, a total of sixteen people have been missing in the academy, including fifteen students and one teacher. ”

An Chongguang said: "Are there any other clues?

Qu Yangming shook his head: "Without warning, it happened suddenly." He looked at An Chongguang, if it weren't for the seriousness of the situation, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to ask An Chongguang for help, but before he came here, he first reported the situation in the academy to his superiors.

An Chongguang said: "Are you saying that these sixteen people disappeared suddenly? were they kidnapped or did they leave on their own initiative?"

"Sixteen people were lost at about the same time, and I don't think they would have chosen to leave. ”

An Chongguang said: "The law and order in the capital has always been good, and it is impossible for 16 people to be kidnapped at the same time. ”

Qu Yangming said: "I want to use the Hanhai system to search. ”

An Chongguang looked at Qu Yangming: "I don't have this power, you know, to open the search authority of the Hanhai system, you must be authorized by the three-person committee, and now you can't do it at all." ”

Qu Yangming said: "I have a hunch that something big may happen this time. ”

An Chongguang said: "The matter may not be as serious as you think, don't worry, I will fully cooperate with you, by the way, don't ignore the security monitoring system, I will contact the relevant departments." ”

Lu Jianqiang and Zhang Chi came to the service area where Cao Mingmin's car was found, and the white Cadillac had been parked here for three hours, and there was no one in the car.

Zhang Chi leaned on the window and glanced at it, and when he saw the mobile phone on the passenger seat, Cao Mingmin probably didn't plan to leave for too long.

Lu Jianqiang knew that Cadillac's own OnStar system had the function of remote unlocking, so he immediately contacted the system service provider and asked the other party to help open the car door remotely.

Lu Jianqiang put on his gloves, picked up his mobile phone and found that Cao Mingmin's mobile phone was turned off, turned on the mobile phone, tilted the angle towards the sun, and did not spend much effort to see the trajectory of the unlock, Lu Jianqiang successfully opened the mobile phone lock, the mobile phone was very charged, he found the Baidu map from it, and checked the search history.

Zhang Daxian watched from the sidelines and expressed his admiration for Lu Jianqiang's reasoning ability, professionals are professionals.

Lu Jianqiang said: "Qingping Mountain?"

Zhang Chi was stunned when he heard this: "What? Qingping Mountain in Chenghai?", in his impression, Cao Mingmin and Qingping Mountain did not seem to have any connection.

Lu Jianqiang checked the web search history again, and there was not much valuable information in it.

The call record, there is Mrs. Han, there is Professor Liang, the most recent phone is an unfamiliar number, judging by the time, Cao Mingmin should be in the service area when he connects the call.

Lu Jianqiang looked around, and there was surveillance nearby.

The two came to the monitoring room in the service area, after Lu Jianqiang showed his documents, he retrieved the relevant video, about 2:30 in the afternoon, Cao Mingmin came out of the car, she was carrying a duffel bag, judging from the surveillance, she should be going to the direction of the bathroom.

Bringing up the video from the camera near the bathroom, Cao Mingmin was found at the relevant time period, and she entered the bathroom.

Zhang Chi and Lu Jianqiang stared at the screen intently, fast-forwarding to watch the content for twenty minutes, but they didn't see Cao Mingmin come out.

Lu Jianqiang had already observed the distribution of cameras in the service area just now, and he asked to retrieve the surveillance footage of the supermarket entrance and exit at the same time.

"Stop!" Lu Jianqiang said loudly.

An old lady appeared on the still screen, and Lu Jianqiang pointed at the old lady and said, "Enlarge it!"

The picture was locked and enlarged, the old lady was wearing reading glasses, her hair was gray, and Lu Jianqiang said: "The neck is enlarged!"

A small black mole can be seen on the enlarged neck, and Lu Jianqiang asked the staff to zoom in on Cao Mingmin's surveillance video in the parking lot and find an image at a similar angle to zoom in, and sure enough, the same black mole was found in the same place on the neck.

Zhang Daxian has only now truly understood Lu Jianqiang's investigation ability, his eyes are too poisonous, Lu Jianqiang has no superpowers, and his hard training and long-term experience in handling cases have given him superhuman reasoning ability.

From Lu Jianqiang, Zhang Chi also found that superpowers are just like that, nothing more than being able to absorb more aura than ordinary people, Cao Mingmin is also a superpower, but even if she dresses up in disguise, she still can't escape Lu Jianqiang's sharp eyes.

Now it can almost be concluded that Cao Mingmin's disappearance was not hijacked, she left on her own initiative.

Cao Mingmin, who was dressed as an old lady, soon entered the blind spot of monitoring, and if she wanted to continue to find out her movements, she might need to be patient and meticulous in her investigation, but it had been proved that it was not a kidnapping, and Zhang Chi was relieved, he called Qu Yangming and told Qu Yangming what he had found.
