Chapter Ninety-Seven: Trapped in the Demon Kiln
Early the next morning, it was time to make an appointment with Qingqing, but Xiao Yao still didn't show up.
Shen Yan felt a little strange, so he came to the door of Xiao Yao's room and knocked on the door.
It's just that what I didn't expect was that Shen Yan knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no movement in Xiao Yao's room, and Shen Yan, who felt that something was wrong, hurriedly dialed Xiao Yao's mobile phone with his mobile phone, but unexpectedly got the news that the mobile phone had been turned off.
Shen Yan understood Xiao Yao and knew that Xiao Yao's mobile phone was usually turned on 24 hours a day, so Shen Yan, who felt that something was wrong, contacted the hotel directly and asked the service staff to open the door with a spare door card.
In the room, there was no trace of Xiao Yao at all, but from the half-open closet, Shen Yan still saw Xiao Yao's neatly stacked clothes.
Looking at the unusual phenomenon in front of him, Shen Yan suddenly felt nervous, and the dark night on the side patted Shen Yan's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, maybe Xiao Yao has something to go out, and she should come back later." ”
"Shall we go to the police station first?" The other piece of Qingqing asked.
"Well, let's go first, Xiao Yao should come to the police station after she is busy with things." Although he was a little worried, Shen Yan still chose to comfort himself.
……
When I came to the police station, the officer I saw yesterday was already waiting in the office.
"There's something new!" Seeing Shen Yan arrive at the office, the police officers hurriedly spoke excitedly.
"What discovery?" Temporarily letting go of the worries about Xiao Yao in his heart, Shen Yan began to seriously devote himself to the investigation of this woman's serial disappearance.
"We found out from the surveillance of the mall that those girls seemed to have been in contact with the ragdoll bears in the mall before they disappeared." A police officer spoke.
"Muppet bear?" Shen Yan felt a little puzzled.
"It's the staff in charge of handing out flyers in the mall, and those girls seem to have gotten the dolls for publicity from the ragdoll bear, and they seem to be paying attention to something with their mobile phones." The officer then spoke.
"According to what you say, there should be a lot of people in the mall who come into contact with the propagandists every day, maybe this discovery is just a coincidence?" Styx was a little skeptical.
"It's really hard to say now, besides, it was a rainy night here last night, but our police haven't received any new reports of missing people yet. By the way, what about the girl who came with you yesterday? Why didn't you see her today? A police officer continued.
"Xiao Yao seems to be missing." Before Shen Yan could speak, Qingqing on the side grabbed Bai Dao.
"Are you sure you're missing?" The officer asked in surprise.
"Not very sure, but Yaoyao was not at the hotel in the morning, and then the phone was turned off." Qingqing continued.
"Otherwise, let's take a look at the hotel's surveillance and see when your friends left the hotel!"
"Okay."
……
When Xiao Yao came to her senses, she found herself in a closed room, and in the room, Xiao Yao found several other girls, and with her memory, Xiao Yao found that these girls seemed to be some of the missing girls she saw in the police photos yesterday.
However, unlike in the photo, these girls are now in rags, and their faces are full of gloom.
Xiao Yao alienated her memory, only to remember that after she got into the car with the mysterious man, she smelled a strange fragrance, and after that, her memory was completely missing.
"You were caught too?" A girl next to Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Yao with a puzzled look on her face and spoke.
"It seems like yes, what is that man doing with us?" Xiao Yao asked.
Hearing Xiao Yao's question, the remaining girls in the room all became indignant.
"This man is a trafficker, specializing in spending money to buy daughters-in-law for some vulgar men, and many of the girls who were arrested before us have been bought by buyers." One of the girls, a girl with short hair, spoke.
"Shall we try to get out of here, then?" Hearing that she had been caught by human traffickers, Xiao Yao's pupils were shocked, but she still took a deep breath to calm herself down.
"It's useless, we tried to escape, but the man had a gun on him, we couldn't help it." A good-looking girl in the room sighed softly.
……
"Your friend left the hotel at 10 o'clock last night and hasn't been back since." After watching the surveillance, a police officer's face suddenly became solemn.
"So, is Yaoyao really missing? But where will she go? The expression on Shen Yan's face became more and more nervous.
"Looking at the surveillance outside the hotel, it seems that your friend went to the direction of 'Haowanglai Mall'." The hotel security guard replied.
"Let's go, let's check the mall surveillance and see if Xiao Yao really has to go there." The police officer beside Shen Yan spoke.
In the surveillance, Shen Yan and the others really found Xiao Yao's figure, and what surprised them even more was that they had obviously been in contact with the large ragdoll bear in the mall before Xiao Yao disappeared.
So, everyone looked at each other and unanimously decided to take the actor of the ragdoll bear to the police station for questioning.
……
Interrogation Room:
A 17 or 8-year-old boy said nervously: "Uncle policeman, I'm just here to distribute leaflets and do part-time work, and I really haven't done anything illegal and undisciplined!" ”
"Less nonsense, look at it, this girl, have you seen it." The officer pushed Xiao Yao's picture to the boy and asked.
"Well, I did see this young lady last night, what's wrong with this young lady?" The boy looked at the interrogating officer and asked.
"She's missing." The officer then asked.
"What? This young lady is missing? Officer, this really has nothing to do with me! I just gave her the little doll, and then I went to promote it to others! The little boy said nervously.
"And do you remember where she went after she came into contact with you?" The officer then asked.
"I remember that because of the sudden rain, the young lady bought an umbrella at the supermarket, and then went to another street, and according to the direction of that street, she should have gone to the 'Shangri-La Hotel'." The little boy replied.
"Do you have any impression of these girls?" After questioning Xiao Yao, the police handed the photos of other missing girls to the boy.
"I'm a little impressed, but I don't remember much." Looking at one photo after another, the confusion on the boy's face did not look like it was pretending.
"Okay, it's not too early, I'll get here today, and if there's a need later, we'll come back to ask you again, you go first!" The officer spoke.
