All of the 18 cases of missing persons have been re-investigated and evidence collected.

If the murderer behind the eighteen cases is the same person, theoretically solving any one of the missing cases is equivalent to solving the eighteen missing cases.

Now that the New Year is approaching, no matter whether the 18 missing people are dead or alive, we must go all out to solve the case, give an explanation to the families of the missing people, give an explanation to the public, and give an explanation to ourselves.

The Serious Crime Team immediately launched an investigation into the 16th case of missing persons, that is, the case of Zhang Yufei's disappearance, and re-investigated and collected evidence on the basis of the progress of the existing case.

Zhang Yufei is a native of Jianglin City, 26 years old, a company employee, unmarried, and has no boyfriend, his father died early, and he has been living with his mother.

Her mother is the lady we met at the gate of the Jianglin City Public Security Bureau half a year ago.

Li Meng and I were in charge of investigating Zhang Yufei's home, Lin Zifan and Xue Hang were in charge of going to her company to investigate, and Jiang Tingbai was reorganizing and analyzing the physical evidence collected during the original investigation of the case.

According to the address, Li Meng and I knocked on Zhang Yufei's door, and a woman's voice came from inside.

"Who?"

"Auntie, we are from the Public Security Bureau, and we are here for Zhang Yufei's matter, so please open the door." I cleared my throat and said in a deep voice.

"Public Security Bureau?!" The eldest lady opened the door very excitedly, and before she could see who we were, she immediately asked, "Is there any news from Yufei?" Where is she now?! ”

Li Meng and I subconsciously pursed our lips and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, because we had no way to answer this question.

Especially when we saw the excited expression of the eldest lady and the somewhat trembling eyes, our hearts were pinched.

"You ...... I seem to have seen you. The eldest lady stared at me and Li Meng's faces tightly, her expression was a little dazed, and she said in a trembling voice.

"Auntie, we did meet, half a year ago at the gate of the Jianglin City Public Security Bureau, we met." Li Meng froze and explained softly.

"Oh yes, yes, at the door of the Public Security Bureau, come in." The eldest lady turned to the side and let us in, and then gently closed the door.

Walking into the room, the room was very clean and tidy, and the warm sunlight shone through the window and cast on the wall in the living room.

The sunlight only hits half of the living room, dividing the whole living room in two, half light and half dark.

The coffee table in the room is also divided into two by the sunlight, in the shadows, there are the medicines that the eldest lady takes daily, and in the sunlight, there are a thick stack of leaflets.

There were a thousand leaflets stacked in a somewhat messy stack, and each leaflet was printed with a photo of Zhang Yufei.

These are missing person notices.

It can be seen that in the half a year since Zhang Yufei disappeared, the eldest mother has been posting missing notices everywhere, looking for her missing daughter.

"We're here this time......

I was about to speak, but the eldest lady hurriedly asked, "Is there news from my daughter Yufei?" Where is she?! ”

Halfway through, I suddenly didn't know how to continue, just shook my head silently.

"It's okay, don't look at me as an old woman, just tell me directly, whether she's alive or dead...... I'm mentally prepared......" The eldest lady looked at us with expectant eyes, and in the next moment, tears welled up in her eyes.

"As long as it allows me to look at her again, even if it's not alive...... I'm blind to death......" The eldest lady couldn't control her excitement anymore, and hid her face and cried bitterly.

She sat on the couch, the sun shining on her, still split in two.

Half of her body is in the shadows, indicating that her life and heart have fallen into endless darkness.

Half of her body was in the sun, indicating that she still had some illusions about her daughter's disappearance, and that her daughter would definitely return.

It's like medicine in the dark, and a missing person notice in the sun.

In the six months since Zhang Yufei's accident, she has been struggling in pain.

Seeing the appearance of my eldest mother, my heart tightened even tighter, and I was almost infected by her emotions, with tears in my eyes.

I calmed down, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Auntie, we are a special task force, and we are specifically responsible for investigating your daughter's disappearance. ”

The eldest lady looked at us in a daze and smiled bitterly: "Half a year ago, there was also a group of policemen who said the same thing as me...... But even so, I haven't heard this for half a year. ”

Hearing the words of the eldest mother, I knew that she had not lost confidence in the police, but unfortunately, the police did not reply with anything.

I didn't express anything to my aunt, including this special operation, including the identity of our serious crime team, including everything.

Because I didn't dare to give her any more hope, and the disappointment that followed.

"Auntie, we are here this time to conduct a thorough re-investigation of this case. So, I need you to carefully recall, before and after Zhang Yufei's disappearance, did anything happen? I sat across from my aunt and asked seriously.

"Nothing happened, Yu Fei is very well-behaved and obedient, she has been like that since she was a child, she has not made enemies with anyone, not in the company, and not in society. And she never spends the night outside, doesn't smoke, doesn't drink, doesn't go to bars, and doesn't have any bad habits. "The eldest lady said a lot in one breath, and they were all basic questions when our police asked about the investigation.

Obviously, since her daughter's disappearance, more than one group of police officers have come to investigate the case with her.

So she is so familiar with police inquiries that she can anticipate the next question from the police in advance.

"Auntie, we are here this time to conduct a new and thorough investigation of Zhang Yufei's disappearance, so you must forget about the previous police investigation and questioning of you. Because some answers are answered more often, they will form a mindset in people's minds. This kind of psychological suggestion will make the lie become the truth, because in your heart you have already agreed, in this way, you will miss a lot of details, maybe the details that you think are useless, for us police, is the key to finding your daughter. So we hope that you can retrace the time before and after Zhang Yufei's disappearance. Li Meng listened to the eldest lady and said softly.

The eldest lady nodded thoughtfully.

Next, she fell into deep memories.

Although more than half a year has passed since Zhang Yufei's disappearance, the disappearance of her daughter has always been a piece of her heart and a nightmare for her.

So even if it's a long time, she will never forget it.

It seems that the day my daughter disappeared was just yesterday......
