Xiong Sifu, still dressed in his upright black uniform, slowly said, "After investigation, in the entire city of Tanhua, there are 136 entertainment venues, and the missing persons cases are spread across the four districts of the east, west, south and north, totaling 7 clubs, with a total of 17 people missing! Among them, the most missing is this beauty, a total of 5 people."
"It took them two months to report the crime; the people in charge of these companies are really careless!"
"There's nothing we can do. Those who make a living from that kind of work, who wants to run into us!" Xiong Sifu handed the documents to Li Nan. "If it weren't for the fact that five members of the Youwu family had gone missing, probably no one would have bothered to report it to the police, and we wouldn't even know about this now!"
Li Nan flipped through the files of missing persons page by page. The earliest missing person was Liu Zhaodi, whose stage name was Liu Xijun. She also worked at Youwu and went missing on April 7th of this year.
Because it happened so early, Liu Zhaodi's colleagues only remembered that a small company had a team building event that day, and the boss came to Vigana to have fun. Liu Zhaodi and the female colleague who was taking statements were among those responsible for entertaining these people.
Nothing particularly memorable happened at the reception that day; everyone just enjoyed the drinks.
If you really want to say there's anything special about it, there is a tiny bit, but it's nothing to people in their circle.
It wasn't until after 1 a.m. that the team-building company owner announced the end of the event, leaving with two women. The other employees followed suit, leaving with their own women.
Only Liu Zhaodi was unable to go out due to health reasons, so Manager Wang specially arranged for her man to be replaced with a satisfactory one. Since the company would reimburse all expenses, the man naturally had no objections, and left with the new woman, abandoning the old one who was visiting with relatives.
What happened after that, Liu Zhaodi's colleagues didn't know, they only remembered that they never saw Liu Zhaodi again after that day.
Seeing this, Li Nan couldn't help but mutter to himself, "These women are too dedicated. They insist on going to work even when they're on their period, and they drink themselves into oblivion every night. Their professionalism is truly top-notch!"
The situations of the other 16 missing persons are similar, with little difference between them.
After reviewing the documents one by one, Li Nan said, "Based on the existing information, it can be seen that these missing persons all left their workplaces alone before they went missing."
After glancing at the notes in the document, he added, "And it was raining on the nights they went missing?"
"A dark and windy night for murder!"
Xiong Sifu continued, "After the Fourth District Patrol Guard filed the case, they contacted the families of the missing persons separately. So far, they have not received any calls from kidnappers. Moreover, according to the identity information of the missing persons, there is no evidence that they left Tanhua City or any trace of the use of funds."
"It's not a kidnapping. They haven't left Tanhua City for two months and haven't used any funds. This case is not simple!"
"Xiao Li, just before you arrived, I had already applied to my superiors to establish the 0609 Special Investigation Team for this case, and you will be the team leader!"
"Yes, sir! All violations will be investigated and all murder cases will be solved!"
The meeting room of the An Ding Division's special task force was still filled with the same group of people from Mei Luo Academy.
"It's true what they say: if you don't make a sale for a year, you can live off it for three years!"
After listening to Li Nan's case report, Yang Bairong joked.
"This is a big case, Captain Li, you're under a lot of pressure!" Ma Jie patted his thin chest muscles as he lay flat and sighed.
"The cases at the Normal University and the construction site death case still have no leads, and now there's the 0609 special case. What's going on in Tanhua City?" Li Na was also very nervous. Judging from the current situation, this case is not simple, and the pressure is indeed immense!
Qin Wen, on the contrary, remained calm. "Don't look at me. I'm a forensic doctor. Without a corpse, my usefulness is limited!"
Feeling uncertain, Li Nan stood in front of the table, clenching his fists, unsure of what to say to boost morale.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Alright, alright, let's start from the beginning and investigate step by step to see if we can find any useful clues."
"Now let's assign tasks!"
"Yes! All violations will be investigated and all murder cases will be solved!"
"Qin Wen and Li Nan are in charge of comforting the family members. Now that the patrol team has transferred the case to us, it's our responsibility to comfort the family members!"
"Yes!" Qin Wen and Li Nan replied.
I glanced at Ma Jie's eyes; they were no longer red.
Li Nan, feeling a pang of guilt, instructed, "Ma Jie, contact the patrol teams in each district, along with our colleagues in the technical department, to re-examine the video surveillance footage before and after the incident, and try to find any new clues!"
"Ah, 17 of them! My eyes are practically glued to the ground!"
"Old Yang, the rest is up to your expertise: visit the clubs where the incident occurred and check on the missing persons' relationships!"
"Captain Li, will you reimburse me?"
"Get out of here, use the proper procedures!"
"Boss, what's the point of checking the proper procedures?!"
