Chapter 380: The Disappearance of the East China Sea

Just when Zhong Huan returned to school, the conference room of the Donghai City Criminal Police Team was also full of people. Captain Wang Xin was standing in front of the stage talking about something, and the criminal police below were busy taking notes, looking at the scene was no different from Zhong Huan's class.

"Comrades, recently we have received two more reports of missing people in a row. Counting the previous disappearances, the total number of missing persons this month has reached 115. This is only the information we have so far, and I estimate that even if there is no police report, there are probably more than 130 missing people in Donghai City this month. This is unusual. The main purpose of Wang Xin's meeting was to discuss the recent disappearances.

"Team Wang, what's so unusual about this? There are 8 million missing people in China every year, or more than 600,000 per month, and on average, there are more than 600 cities across the country, and it is normal for 1,000 people to go missing in one city. Our East China Sea is so big, it's not surprising that a hundred and ten people are missing, I remember that there seemed to be a lot of people missing last month and last month. Criminal policeman Zhu Ming said below.

"Yes, Team Wang, the elderly and children are lost, women are abducted and trafficked, plus those who engage in pyramid schemes, people go missing every month, and it is not normal for no one to go missing." Another young detective said approvingly.

"Listen to me for a while. Although there are many cases of disappearances throughout the country, such cases are mainly concentrated in rural areas and areas with poor public security. The law and order situation in our Donghai City has always been very good, and although there will be some cases of missing contact, most of them can be traced. However, in recent months, there has been a clear upward trend in the number of disappearances, and not all of them are elderly, children and women, half of whom are young adults. This situation has attracted the attention of the city leaders and bureau chiefs, and we have been asked to shift the focus of our work in this direction. Wang Xin conveyed the meaning of the superior leaders to everyone.

"The disappearance of young adults is usually related to pyramid schemes. Could it be that a pyramid scheme has set up a presence in our city? Liu Han analyzed.

"Initially, I thought so, but by following up on similar cases, I found that this was not the case. The purpose of a MLM organization is to seek wealth, and the means is to develop downlines. If you are caught in a pyramid scheme, you will not have no news at all. They usually ask for money from their families or contact their relatives and friends to participate in pyramid schemes. This is a marked departure from the recent disappearances, where the people in these cases are as if they have vanished from the world, with no clue at all. "This is where Wang Xin's headache lies.

"It can't be so evil! Even if it's kidnapping and murder, there should be traces. Could it be that these people themselves ran away from home and went to other places. Zhu Ming put forward another possibility.

"When you run away from home, you have to pack your things. However, there was no sign of these missing persons before they disappeared. In the last two cases, the missing officers were all police officers. One is Xie Jing from the Donghai Detention Center. The other is Ai Ming from the Chengbei University Town Police Station. With the knowledge of these two people, they will definitely not join the MLM organization. The possibility of running away from home is also almost non-existent. There have been several similar cases before, and I decided to deal with them together, and this is a file of several similar cases. As he spoke, Wang Xin distributed the files of several cases to his subordinates.

Kong Luzhu also got a case file in his hand. She is the little princess in the criminal police team, and everyone will exclude her when there is a dangerous case, but she is ranked first when she looks at the case file to find clues. Therefore, Kong Luzhu always got the case file with the most clues and doubts, and once she found some clues, she could make meritorious contributions.

This time, Kong Luzhu got the case file of Xie Jing's disappearance. This case is arguably the most bizarre of the many disappearances, as Xie Jing disappeared in an extremely high-security detention center.

It stands to reason that places like detention centers are monitored 24 hours a day. It is impossible for a person to go missing without a clue. But the coincidence of the case is that when Xie Jing disappeared, there happened to be a problem with the surveillance. Of course, the problem was only part of the surveillance in the detention center, and there was no problem with the gate surveillance, and the gate surveillance did not capture Xie Jing leaving the detention center, so it was concluded that he disappeared in the detention center.

When a prison guard goes missing in the detention center, along with his keys, the prisoner is the first to be suspected. However, no prisoner escaped from prison on the night of Xie Jing's disappearance, and no prisoners were found to have behaved abnormally, let alone Xie Jing's body. This makes the case even more confusing.

Sherlock Holmes famously said. The more strange things are, the more the truth is revealed. The more normal the inside situation. And those very ordinary cases are confusing. It is precisely because Xie Jing's case is so bizarre that the police believe that this case is a breakthrough. It's just because no one sees through the mystery that it seems bizarre.

Wang Xin handed over the case file as a breakthrough to Kong Luzhu first, naturally hoping that she could analyze the mystery. This kind of good thing that is not dangerous and can make meritorious contributions, the people in the criminal police team let Kong Luzhu go. But then again, if Kong Luzhu can't analyze the reason. The case file still has to be passed on to others. Wang Xin will be biased towards Kong Luzhu, but he will not delay solving the case because he favors her. Kong Luzhu has no ability to make meritorious contributions, so he can only let others make meritorious contributions.

After reading the case in the file, Kong Luzhu began to look through the detailed transcript attached to the file. The transcript was provided by Xie Jing's colleagues and some of the suspects that Xie Jing was in custody. However, these people all said that they did not see Xie Jing that night.

To Kong Luzhu's surprise, she saw Zhong Huan's name at the back of this record. The transcript states that Zhong Huan has been released from prison on bail. As a result, the transcript is missing. Because Zhong Huan and the prison all said that they had not seen Xie Jing that night, the person who recorded it did not contact Zhong Huan again to ask for a copy of the same record.

Compared with other criminal suspects held in the detention center, Kong Luzhu certainly trusts Zhong Huan more. She felt the need to ask Zhong Huan to see if he knew what was going on that night.

Kong Luzhu was thinking about calling Zhong Huan in his heart, when he heard Wang Xin in front of the stage say, "Let's take the file back and take a closer look." If you find any clues, report them in time. We'll exchange files tomorrow when we have a meeting. Of course, if you are willing to share information and form a group to brainstorm today, I will support it.

In addition, I would like to commend Comrade Liu Han and Comrade Kong Luzhu. Yesterday, when the criminal police team was extremely short of manpower, the two comrades arrested three drug dealers and seized 60 grams of methamphetamine. Based on the confessions of three drug dealers, we also have clues about another drug trafficking gang. Let's applaud both comrades. ”

After Wang Xin finished speaking, he took the lead in applauding, and other colleagues also applauded warmly. Although it is the duty of the police to catch the bad guys, it is indeed not easy for two people to catch three drug dealers. What's more, one of these two people is old, and the other is a policewoman.

"Team Wang, we were able to catch three drug dealers yesterday thanks to the help of a student. Can you give me a compliment in the name of the Force? Get a title of righteousness and bravery? "Liu Han has a great change in his opinion of Zhong Huan after yesterday's arrest, and he did not forget to speak for Zhong Huan at this time.

"Luzhu already said this yesterday, and I agreed. Just let Lu Zhu do it. That's all for today's meeting, adjournment. Wang Xin didn't have much time to send a task to Kong Luzhu, so he handed over the work of commending Zhong Huan for his righteousness and bravery.

Kong Luzhu rarely spoke at meetings, firstly because she had not been in the criminal police team for a long time and had little seniority, and secondly, because she did not want to be noticed by her colleagues. After the meeting ended, Kong Luzhu dialed Zhong Huan's phone and wanted to learn about Xie Jing's situation with him.

"Sister Luzhu, is there something wrong with me?"

Zhong Huan and Kong Luzhu were in a hurry yesterday. His first reaction when he saw the call was that Kong Luzhu discussed with him about the appeal.

"Zhong Huan, I have something I want to check with you. Do you remember that there was a police officer named Xie Jing in the detention center? Kong Luzhu asked straight to the point.

When Zhong Huan heard Kong Luzhu speak, he was suddenly shocked in his heart. He really didn't expect the police to be so efficient, and only two days after Xie Jing's disappearance, someone suspected him. Could it be that the moment he let Xie Jing disappear was captured by the surveillance? Impossible! If the police really have solid evidence, they should come and arrest themselves. What does it mean to let Kong Luzhu ask herself? Could it be that she got the news in advance and wanted to let herself go?

Countless thoughts flashed through Zhong Huan's mind, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Zhong Huan has learned to calm down after experiencing a lot of things recently, so he suppressed the tension in his heart and said, "I know that there is a police officer Xie, but I don't know if it's not called Xie Jing." This surname is not common, it should be the same person, but I don't know him well. ”

"It's okay if you're not familiar, I'm just looking for you to check, did you see this person the night before you were released on bail? When was the last time you saw him? Kong Luzhu asked.

"The last time I saw him was at night when the lights went out to make his rounds. What happened to him? Zhong Huan lied.

"Xie Jing is missing, it should be after the lights go out at night. Have you ever seen him in the middle of the night? Kong Luzhu continued to ask.

"Not really. I slept all night, and although I could occasionally hear someone patrolling the hallway, I didn't know if it wasn't him. Isn't there surveillance in the detention center? Just look at it. Zhong Huan didn't seem to doubt himself when he heard Kong Luzhu's tone, but as if he was looking for himself to verify the situation, so he said tentatively.

"There was a problem with the surveillance. No one saw him either. As a result, the person disappeared inexplicably. Kong Luzhu didn't find a clue here in Zhong Huan, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

When Zhong Huan heard that the monitoring was indeed out of order by Xie Jing, he was overjoyed. It seems that Kong Luzhu didn't doubt himself, but just asked himself for clues, which made Zhong Huan's heart relax. (To be continued......)
