91 Investigation
“Stop talking nonsense here. We are very busy here at the police station. If there’s nothing else, you should go back early.” Feng Jing took the bag from Lin Jia and said to Yin Tao, “Come back to the police station with me first. I still want you to take a look at the information that Bai Luo and Xia Jin brought.”
“Huh?” Seeing that Feng Jing had obviously ignored him, Lin Jia said angrily, “Little sister Xiaotao is not a detective. What information do you need her to read?”
“The workload at the police station is too heavy. It’s normal to help each other.” Feng Jing could not be bothered to explain to Lin Jia. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Lin Jia stopped him.
“Is there a new case?” Lin Jia asked in a serious tone when he saw that Feng Jing didn’t look like he was joking.
“The drug case, the missing person case, the dismemberment case, the body dumping case…” Feng Jing sighed helplessly and said slowly, “City A hasn’t been peaceful recently.”
“Feng Jing, I didn’t expect you to have Conan’s physique. Did these cases happen after you were transferred to City A?” After Lin Jia finished speaking, he realized that Feng Jing was glaring at him. He laughed dryly and said, “There have been many things happening in City A recently. The mayor has held many meetings. Coupled with the fact we are about to implement the National Civilized City development plans for the new year, we can’t take a breather at all.”
“I think it’s very difficult to qualify for the National Civilized City selection this year. After all, there have been so many murders. It’s impossible for City A to not be affected at all.” Feng Jing felt that under normal circumstances, it would not be a problem for City A to qualify for the National Civilized City and National Outstanding and Advanced City selection. However, with the spate of murders, this is a sensitive period and no one would dare to broach the subject.
“That’s right. The Mayor is also concerned about this. He even called Chief Wang for a meeting today. Although no one said anything, it is obvious they don’t feel good about this.” As a special assistant, apart from arranging and organizing the Mayor’s work, Lin Jia also needed to provide advice from time to time.
“If you need any help, just let me know. I will do my best to help you.” Jokes aside, Lin Jia was actually very supportive of Feng Jing’s work. He had helped him a lot in the past too.
“That’s perfect. We’re short of manpower right now. My officers have been assigned to follow up on the suspects. Why don’t the three of us go through the files together.”
Before Lin Jia could answer, Feng Jing pulled him over. “I see that you’re quite free now. Lest you get bored, take a look at the information for Xiaoyin later.”
Lin Jia was on the brink of tears. He had already been busy the entire morning, and was planning to go home and take a bath to relax after sending Yin Tao back. He didn’t expect to be asked by Feng Jing to do manual labor.
“It’s not convenient for me to participate in the police case, right?” Lin Jia was still trying to come up with excuses to escape.
Feng Jing smiled and said, “Who ‘s asking you to participate in solving the case? I’m just asking you to look at some records. You don’t have to worry about this.”
If it wasn’t for Yin Tao, Lin Jia would have scolded Feng Jing. However, he could only accept his fate and follow Feng Jing to a spacious records room.
“Here, these are missing persons cases similar to Li Ting’s case.” Feng Jing placed a stack of one-meter high documents in front of Yin Tao and Lin Jia.
“How many missing persons are involved in this case?” Lin Jia was surprised that so many people had gone missing. City A had always been a safe place. There must be someone behind such a large number of missing persons.
“This is after our police officers have screened through the records.” After saying that, Feng Jing opened a laptop and pulled out a document. He placed it in front of Lin Jia. “This is the investigation record of all the missing persons. Take a closer look and see if there are any similarities. Focus on the physical characteristics of the missing persons, social network, and frequent locations.”
Although Lin Jia was unwilling, he still obediently did as he was told.
Yin Tao roughly glanced at the missing persons’ files and felt that other than being very pretty, there was nothing special about them. “Brother Feng, did these missing persons go missing at the same time as Li Ting?”
“More or less. It’s the missing persons in the month before and after Li Ting disappeared. If we expand the scope, it will only increase our difficulties.”
Feng Jing had no choice. These missing persons cases were indeed very suspicious. After all, it is very rare to have such complete disappearances in City A that didn’t leave behind any clues. Moreover, the timing was very concentrated in the same period and they happened in the same area.
“Because we couldn’t find any clues on Li Ting, we could only start from these similar missing cases and find a few with the most similarities to investigate.”
