It's normal for the medicinal properties and spiritual energy of the Xuanxiao Tongshen Pill to begin to dissipate; no pill can be preserved for a long time.
Even if placed in a special jade box for storing elixirs and sealed with a restriction, it can only slow down the dissipation process, not completely prevent it.
Ye Feng took out a jade box from his storage ring, put all four Xuanxiao Tongshen Pills into it, and then placed a restriction on it before putting it back into his storage ring.
"Looks like I need to get back to Zhongzhou City soon," Ye Feng muttered to himself.
Ye Feng's injuries have basically healed and have no further impact.
With nothing else to do in Binhai City, Ye Feng took out his phone and bought a high-speed rail ticket back to Zhongzhou City, preparing to leave Binhai City the next morning.
However, just as morning began, Ye Feng received a phone call from Wang Zhenhai, the director of the Criminal Investigation Department of Binhai City.
"What do you need me for?" Ye Feng asked.
Wang Zhenhai said anxiously on the phone, "Mr. Ye, I would like to ask you for help."
"Help? Is it your personal matter, or..." Night Wind asked back.
"It's official business," Wang Zhenhai quickly replied.
Wang Zhenhai then said, "This matter is rather complicated. Mr. Ye, could you come to the Dragon Execution Division?"
"Alright, I'll be there soon," Night Wind said.
If Wang Zhenhai asked Ye Feng for help for his personal reasons, then Ye Feng would definitely not agree at this critical juncture.
After all, he had already bought the tickets and was about to leave.
But since it was official business, Ye Feng naturally couldn't stand idly by.
Ye Feng then took out his phone, canceled his high-speed rail ticket, and set off for Longxing Division in Binhai City.
As soon as Ye Feng stepped into the lobby of the Dragon Punishment Division, he saw Wang Zhenhai already waiting for him there.
"Mr. Ye, please follow me," Wang Zhenhai said, gesturing for him to follow.
Ye Feng did not ask any questions immediately, and followed Wang Zhenhai into his director's office.
After sitting down on the sofa, Ye Feng finally asked, "Now you can tell me, what happened?"
Wang Zhenhai immediately replied, "Mr. Ye, recently, people have been going missing every day in Binhai City."
"What?"
Ye Feng's brows furrowed tightly.
"Mr. Ye, look, these are the case files for several missing persons cases." Wang Zhenhai said, handing a thick stack of files to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng examined it carefully.
It turns out that starting six days ago, one person has been going missing every day in Binhai City.
The first missing person was named Wang Xiaohua, a 26-year-old young woman who worked in a clothing store.
The second missing person is named Chen Xue, who works at a local bank in Binhai City.
The third missing person is named Li Shuang, who is a low-level employee of a state-owned enterprise in Binhai City.
The fourth, fifth, and sixth missing persons were all women.
“At first, I thought it was just a regular missing persons case, but as time went on and more and more people went missing, I realized that this was not a simple matter. I have sent out a lot of people to investigate, but so far we have not found any results, so…” Wang Zhenhai’s expression was somewhat helpless.
“Okay, I understand,” Night Wind said.
After a moment of contemplation, Ye Feng still couldn't figure out the key to these disappearances.
The only thing they had in common was that all six missing people were women.
Is there some criminal gang in Binhai City, engaging in some illegal activities?
"Mr. Ye, what are your thoughts?" Wang Zhenhai asked.
"I am not omniscient or omnipotent. What can I possibly know if you ask me now?" Night Wind said calmly.
Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment immediately appeared on Wang Zhenhai's face.
“I can’t figure it out in a short time. Give me this file, I’ll take it back and take a good look at it,” Ye Feng said.
"Alright then, I'll leave it to you, Mr. Ye," Wang Zhenhai said quickly.
Ye Feng returned to Lin Yifei's villa with the missing persons case files. After returning to his room, he continued to browse and ponder them, hoping to find some clues.
But before they knew it, more than an hour had passed, and Ye Feng still hadn't found anything.
A series of loud knocks suddenly sounded on the door, followed by Lin Yifei's voice from outside.
"Mr. Ye, may I come in? I made you a cup of coffee."
"Come in."
Ye Feng put down the dossier in his hand and said.
Then Lin Yifei walked in from outside and placed the steaming coffee on the table in front of Ye Feng.
"Mr. Ye, what are you looking at?" Lin Yifei asked.
"The files," Ye Feng said calmly.
"Document? What file?" Lin Yifei was even more curious.
Ye Feng picked up his coffee, took a sip, and explained, "It's a missing persons case file. People have been disappearing in Binhai City every day for the past few days, and they're all women. Wang Zhenhai has been investigating for several days but hasn't found anything, so he asked me to help investigate these missing persons cases."
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Lin Yifei's face immediately showed a deep look of surprise.
"Missing persons cases? And several at that? When did Binhai City become so unsafe?" Lin Yifei's face showed a worried expression.
Lin Yifei couldn't help but feel worried, after all, she lived here, and the increase in illegal activities in the city was not a good thing for her.
"Can I take a look?" Lin Yifei asked.
"Then you can see for yourself, just don't tell anyone else," Ye Feng said.
Lin Yifei then picked up the file on the table and began to examine it carefully.
After a while, Lin Yifei's eyes suddenly lit up: "Mr. Ye, why were all these missing women born on the same day? Is there some secret behind this?"
Born on the same day?
Ye Feng snatched the file from Lin Yifei's hand and began to read it carefully.
The first missing person was Wang Xiaohua, 26 years old, whose birthday was August 18.
The second missing person, Chen Xue, was also 26 years old, with her birthday on August 18.
The third, the fourth, and all the other missing persons were all born on this day!
Night Breeze hadn't noticed this before, but now he suddenly realized something was wrong.
If those women had disappeared because they were abducted by human traffickers, things would never have been so coincidental.
"What day is August 18th?" Night Wind asked.
"It's not a special day, there's nothing special about it," Lin Yifei asked, completely bewildered.
"Check the lunar calendar, the lunar calendar year in which these missing people were born," Ye Feng said.
Lin Yifei then took out her phone to check.
"It's the fifteenth of July, the Ghost Festival!" Lin Yifei shouted.
The night wind suddenly realized!
The Ghost Festival, also known as the Hungry Ghost Festival, is the day with the heaviest yin energy of the year.
Women are inherently yin, and women born on Ghost Festival have even stronger yin energy.
It seems these disappearances are related to martial artists!
"You did me a favor."
Night Breeze stood up, a slight smile on his face.
