When Qin Jinnian rushed to the police station, Lin Yun was crying inside. She begged with tears streaming down her face: "Please, you must help me find Ningning, you must help me find her, otherwise, otherwise I will not be able to live. Woo woo..."

The helpless crying caused people who were handling other matters in the police station to look sideways and talk in low voices.

Lin Yun was accompanied by two women. One was in her forties, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses and had a serious look on her face. She was communicating with the police.

The other one was obviously younger, looking no more than 20 years old, with an ordinary appearance, but youthfulness prevailed. She accompanied Lin Yun throughout the whole process, holding her hands tightly, but her expression was not only anxious, but also a bit flustered and helpless.

"Sister Yun."

Qin Jinnian walked over quickly.

"Xiao Nian." When Lin Yun saw Qin Jinnian, she felt like she had seen a relative. After calling out, she cried, "Ningning is missing."

"Sister Yun, don't worry. Are you lost? Where did you go missing? What did the police say?"

Although Qin Jinnian was also anxious, he was very calm at the moment. He comforted Lin Yun and then asked.

"I got lost during the lunch break at school." Sister Yun said while crying out of breath.

"Lunch break?" Qin Jinnian was startled, then immediately frowned, realizing something was wrong: "Isn't lunch break at noon? It's already afternoon, why are you reporting the case just now?"

Having said this, Lin Yun paused crying for a moment, and then looked at the girl beside her angrily.

The girl's face turned pale, and then she lowered her head, with self-blame and crying, and a bit helpless: "Yes, I'm sorry. I, I found out that it was already 2:30 in the afternoon... The kids got up at 2:30 and found that Ningning was missing. Then the school teacher immediately looked for her in the school... but... they didn't find her, so they called the police. It took some time..."

"Who is this?" Qin Jinnian asked despite having some guesses in his mind.

"I, I am Ningning's teacher..."

The girl lowered her head and answered.

Ningning is five and a half years old and is in the senior class of kindergarten. The kindergarten is not far from Tongmuqi Community and is a full-time private kindergarten.

"There is no surveillance in the school?"

"Yes... every classroom and dormitory in the school has surveillance cameras. There are surveillance cameras outside the teaching building and at the school gate."

"Then you didn't take pictures of Ningning?"

"It was captured. Ningning woke up suddenly around 1:00 p.m., got dressed and went out by herself. Then she went downstairs and walked out of the teaching building by herself. Finally, she was seen walking to a blind spot of the surveillance camera, and then... she was never seen again." The teacher replied quickly.

Qin Jinnian frowned immediately: "In other words, Ningning got lost by herself? And it was during lunch break? Where were you at the time?"

The teacher's face turned pale again. After moving his mouth for a while, he lowered his head and said with a look of self-blame: "I, I was a little tired at the time, and fell asleep in a daze... also in the dormitory."

Qin Jinnian's brows tightened again.

In other words, Ning Ning disappeared inexplicably in a kindergarten full of surveillance cameras and even teachers? He was confused, but he had no clue at the moment. He turned to Lin Yun and asked, "Sister Yun, how long have you called the police? What did the police say?"

"I just called the police when I went to pick Ningning up after get off work. It's been about an hour now, and someone has been sent to investigate. But I don't know the details yet."

Maybe it was because Qin Jinnian came, at least he was someone Lin Yun was familiar with, which made her feel a little bit like someone she could rely on. Although her voice was still trembling and she had a crying tone, she was no longer just crying like before.

But Qin Jinnian's heart sank when he heard this. An hour had passed and there was still no news from the police, which meant that he had not been found yet.

But where could a five-year-old girl go in a kindergarten in the city center? If she was just lost, she should be found in about an hour.

If we haven’t found it yet, it means... things are heading in a very worrying direction.

"Where is the surveillance video now? Can I see it?" Qin Jinnian asked Lin Yun.

Qin Jinnian couldn't grasp many key points just by listening to the teacher's oral explanation, so he wanted to watch the video.

Lin Yun nodded quickly and looked at the teacher.

The girl quickly stood up and said, "All surveillance videos have been handed over to the police. I, I'll go ask the police."

After saying that, she quickly walked towards the middle-aged woman and the policeman in the black frame who were communicating.

Lin Yun covered her face with her hands, and she seemed to be unable to hold back her emotions: "Ningning, Ningning... If anything happens to Ningning, I, I won't live either."

Qin Jinnian walked over, patted her shoulder gently, and said calmly: "Sister Yun, don't worry, the police are trying to find Ningning."

Lin Yun raised her head with tears in her eyes and wanted to say something, but the policeman and the middle-aged woman with black-framed glasses had already walked over.

Before Qin Jinnian could answer, Lin Yun answered, "He is my brother."

Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment, but did not deny it. Instead, he nodded and asked, "Can I see the surveillance footage?"

"In principle, it's not allowed. But... since you're a family member, it's okay. Follow me."

The policeman thought about it and nodded, then took a few people to an office.

"All the surveillance cameras in the school today are here... Xiao Li, help us retrieve the surveillance video sent by Sunshine Kindergarten today."

The middle-aged policeman spoke.

"Okay." A younger policeman sitting in front of the computer responded.

Soon, several surveillance images were projected onto the computer screen in front of him.

There are a lot of pictures, almost fifty or sixty, which shows that this school has quite a lot of surveillance cameras.

"Which one is the dormitory scene?" Qin Jinnian leaned forward to take a look.

"This." The middle-aged policeman quickly called it out for Qin Jinnian and enlarged it.

Then I saw a very warmly decorated dormitory with pink walls covered with stickers of stars, moons, and various small animals.

"Ningning's bed is here..."

The teacher's voice trembled and he pointed to a location.

These beds are bunk beds, and Ningning is on the lower bunk near the window.

Qin Jinnian looked over and the police pulled up the time again. Soon, Qin Jinnian saw that Ningning suddenly moved on the small bed and then began to put on her clothes by herself.

After putting on her clothes, shoes and socks, she stood up and walked towards the dormitory door alone.

The teacher was also in the picture, lying on a small table at the door of the dormitory, and seemed to have fallen asleep.

Ningning walked past the teacher without saying a word and headed towards the door.

Qin Jinnian suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "Stop for a moment."

The policeman quickly pressed the pause button: "What's wrong? What did you find?"

Qin Jinnian frowned as he looked at Ningning in the picture, then looked at the policeman and said, "Didn't you notice? Ningning's expression seems a little strange."

"Something's wrong?" The policeman hurriedly looked at it carefully, but after looking at it for a while, he frowned and said, "The image quality is not very clear, but it looks like... there doesn't seem to be anything wrong, right?"

"No, it's very wrong... Look at the way her eyes look, they're dull."

Qin Jinnian pointed at Ningning's eyes that were frozen in the picture.

What Qin Jinnian was most impressed with about Ningning was her pair of bright big eyes, which were very lively.

But at this moment, Ningning in the picture had a dull look in her eyes.

"sluggish?"

The policeman also frowned.

He looked more carefully, but after looking for a while, he shook his head: "I can't see it..."

Qin Jinnian: “…”

"Forget it, let's continue playing... Next is the video outside the door, right?"

Qin Jinnian did not pursue the matter further, he decided to keep watching.

Wait till you finish watching the video.
