Chapter 44: The Strange Case of Disappearance
After I picked my mother up from the hospital, I went back to Banyue Village, which seemed to be busy with farm work as if nothing had happened, and I told my mother everything.
When my mother heard the ending of my adoptive father, she just sighed lightly, without saying too much, my heart was very heavy, and I just told my mother that I would definitely try my best to find the South China Sea Sword Emperor and find the baby back then.
My mother just told me to do my best and not push myself too hard!
I could see that my mother was much older, and there was nothing I could do about it, so after spending three days with her, I began to dispose of Xiaowen's body.
Xiaowen's parents died young, and only one sister, Liang Wan, was a sophomore in high school in the city, and their siblings were raised by their grandmother, who died last year.
The insurance company compensated a sum of cash, I kept some for my mother, and some for Xiaowen's sister Liang Wan, and the rest plus the money from the previous sale of jade was all given to Chen Zhiguo, who transferred it to the family of the deceased at the funeral home.
I didn't kill people, but I died because of me, and I should take this responsibility!
In the days that followed, I began to stabilize the Nanhai Internal Cultivation in my body, and then diligently practiced the Soul Suppression Seal and the skill of Soul Collecting Cup that Shen Saburo taught me, and as for the book of the Twelve Swords of Suppression of Mountains that Gan Fengchi instructed Chen Zuming to give me, I also began to study it.
Originally, I didn't agree to join the Religious Affairs Bureau, but Chen Zuming was unwilling to take it back, and said that Gan Fengchi valued me very much, and asked me to report to the Religious Affairs Bureau immediately after finishing the affairs in Yunnan.
I can't cry or laugh, it is worth mentioning that although this period of time is peaceful, Chen Zhiguo and Bai Yu are repeatedly looking for excuses to find me, the two are very interested in the things in the Daomen, and over time, we have become friends.
By the time I was able to successfully unleash the Soul Seal, a full month had passed since that day in Shenjia Village, and I said goodbye to my mother and left Half Moon Village, intending to leave for Yunnan to complete what Shen Saburo had told me.
Di Lingling!
When I first stepped on the train, the phone in my pocket suddenly rang, I was a little surprised, I didn't have any friends, there were few people in the social circle, and there were only mothers, Liang Wan, Chen Zuming and Bai Yu Chen Zhiguo in the phone address book, but they rarely talked to me on the phone.
I immediately glanced at it and found that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello?"
"Is it Liang Wan's brother-in-law?" A weak female voice rang from the phone.
"Ah, I am, what's the matter?"
"My name is Wang Xiaoai, I am a roommate of Liangwan, Liangwan is missing, the school has searched all over and can't find anyone at all, I searched all over Liangwan to find your phone."
"Missing!"
I was immediately anxious, Liang Wan is Xiaowen's sister, and Xiaowen's only relative in the world, Xiaowen died because of me, I already feel very guilty, if Liang Wan has another accident, I am afraid that I will have a bad conscience for the rest of my life, so I immediately asked Wang Xiaoai where he was, and then hurried over.
Liang Wan studied in the county experimental middle school, because of his young age, so he was very rebellious, and usually lived alone in the school, how could he suddenly disappear?
When I arrived at the school, I found that the school had been forcibly closed, because in addition to Liang Wan, there were two girls missing in the school, so the school took this matter very seriously and thought that there were criminals who deliberately abducted high school students.
But when I found the school leader and said that I wanted to see Wang Xiaoai, the school leader said that Wang Xiaoai was one of the three missing classmates, and I was immediately surprised.
However, the school said that Wang Xiaoai, Liang Wan and another female classmate disappeared on the same day!
I hurriedly called Chen Zhiguo and asked him to help check it, and after a while, Chen Zhiguo and Bai Yu hurried over, still holding a bunch of documents in their hands.
Chen Zhiguo's face was very haggard, his eyes were red, obviously the reason for not sleeping, the three of us sat down at the snack bar outside the school, he frowned and smoked one cigarette after another, and then said hoarsely: "When Xiangnan called me, I had actually started to investigate, this case happened four days ago, and the missing person was originally under the jurisdiction of the police station, but the school said that it was suspected that the criminals kidnapped the person, so the case was transferred to my hands." ”
He paused, then looked at me and said, "The case is very tricky, it's not an ordinary disappearance case, I suspect it's a supernatural event!" ”
Bai Yu was on vacation during this time, so he didn't know about the case, so he immediately asked, "Team Chen, what's going on?" ”
Chen Zhiguo nodded, then put the case file in his hand on the table, motioned for us to look at it, and then began to tell the details of the case.
Ms. Liang disappeared four days ago, and was last seen at a coffee shop in front of the school, where she and Ms. Wang and another male classmate have never been seen since.
Originally, the disappearance case had nothing to do with Chen Zhiguo, but the police station in charge of the missing person received a total of seven reports that day, and the contents of the reports were all missing!
In other words, in addition to Liang Wan and her three classmates, there were seven other people in a county town who disappeared together on the same day, and their whereabouts were unknown.
The police station suspected that it was a human kidnapping, so it was reported to the criminal investigation, and Chen Zhiguo came forward, but Chen Zhiguo checked for a long time but had no clue, because these missing people, except for Liangwan, they saw that they entered the coffee shop, and the others disappeared as if they disappeared out of thin air, leaving no clues.
You must know that now the state is extremely strict with monitoring and management, but in all urban areas, almost every intersection will have monitoring, but the other party has not left any clues.
Originally, Chen Zhiguo thought that it was a kidnapping case, and perhaps someone would call to blackmail after 20 hours, but strangely enough, the family of the missing person did not receive any phone calls.
I frowned and asked, "Are the other seven missing people all students?" ”
Chen Zhiguo shook his head: "This is the strangest thing about this case, because except for Liang Wan and the three of them who are students, the rest of the people are from all walks of life, and there is even an old man in his seventies." ”
Bai Yu asked, "Have you checked the coffee shop?" ”
Chen Zhiguo nodded: "The coffee shop is opened by a Japanese woman, it is a legitimate operation, there is no illegality, and we have called up the monitoring of the coffee shop, Liang Wan and her three classmates are indeed drinking coffee inside, but the monitoring only has the picture of them entering, but there is no picture of coming out, it is certain that the person disappeared in the coffee shop, and now the coffee shop has ceased business to accept the police investigation." ”
"What about the Japanese woman?" I asked with a frown.
"Her name is Keiko Yotani, she is in her thirties, according to the waiter at the coffee shop, she basically never goes to the coffee shop, and on the day of the incident, Keiko Yotani was at the gym and had alibi evidence."
I muttered: "The surveillance footage of the coffee shop doesn't say anything, because it is likely to be blinded by a ghost, and it is difficult to say whether this incident is a supernatural event, it is just that there is no other strange thing, but the missing Wang Xiaoai gave me a phone call before, and specially told me about Liang Wan's disappearance, but she disappeared four days ago, either she has escaped, or someone called me in her name again, because I have not seen Wang Xiaoai, so I don't know her voice." ”
Chen Zhiguo nodded and said: "Wang Xiaoai is the only clue now, I will ask people to pay close attention and find her as soon as possible!" ”
I asked again, "Have you reported it to the Religious Affairs Bureau?" ”
Chen Zhiguo shook his head: "It's been reported, but Chen Zuming said that this case doesn't look like a supernatural event, so he can't control it." ”
Di Lingling!
At this moment, Chen Zhiguo's phone rang suddenly, and he hurriedly picked up the phone:
"Hello? What the? Found a breakthrough? I'll go right over, yes, yes, what, dead? When did you die? Why didn't the detention center discipline report such a big matter......"
After talking for about two minutes, Chen Zhiguo hung up the phone, his face was full of joy, but there was a sense of doubt and uneasiness in his expression, he paused and said: "The case has found a breakthrough point, just now my colleague called to say that all the missing people except Wang Xiaoai and Liang Wan, the other missing people have one thing in common." ”
"What do you have in common?" I hurriedly asked.
"These missing people all went to court together as witnesses a month ago and reported a murder case together!"
Bai Yu hurriedly said: "Then the matter is simple, it must be the family of the perpetrator who retaliated and kidnapped these witnesses, the case a month ago, now it must still be the appeal period, as long as all the witnesses disappear, there are no witnesses in the second instance, the case will be returned for retrial, there are no witnesses, there is no other evidence, the procuratorate cannot issue an arrest warrant, this person will be acquitted." ”
As soon as I heard this, I immediately felt very reasonable, could it be that this disappearance case was done by an accomplice or family member of a criminal a month ago?
As long as all the witnesses are abrupt, then there are no witnesses, and the prisoner will be acquitted!
However, Chen Zhiguo's brows furrowed even deeper: "I thought so at first, but the police station just checked the information, and the criminals had no relatives and family members in the orphanage, and they were also engaged in legitimate industries before, with no criminal records, and no dealings with criminals......
He paused, and then said in a deep voice: "The most important thing is that this prisoner died in the detention center before he reached the second trial, if the kidnapping of witnesses is to save the prisoner, but he is dead, why do this?" ”
