Eight bags in the sand pool
Yi Ning didn't answer, but soon Wu Siqi's ringing phone told her why.
It was Zhang Li on the other end of the line. Her voice was urgent, and there was a chaotic background noise. "Siqi, where are you? Come to the main gate quickly. There are a lot of police here, and they told us to stop work."
Wu Siqi: "I'm in the children's free play area. I'll be right there." She hung up the phone, her expression indescribable, quite distressed. "You've definitely gotten into some trouble."
"Hehe, sorry." Yi Ning stuck out his tongue at her and put his hands behind his back. "Xiao Wu, please go over quickly. I have to climb over the wall too."
Wu Siqi put on a helpless look and waved her hand in disgust, "Please go away." She turned around and walked quickly towards the main entrance of the park.
Wu Siqi turned her back and walked quickly in the dark with her excellent sense of direction. Her expression changed several times in the night. Her eyebrows, which were twisted into a "川" shape, turned into an inverted hook. She was impatient with the man just now, turned around and walked a long way before raising the corner of her mouth.
What a despicable person, he drove people away with his own hands, and then was so excited to meet them again.
The distance wasn't very far. After walking for about five minutes, I gradually approached the main gate. Not far away, there was a strong flash of red and blue light. It was a police light. Many police lights were rotating together, randomly blinding every passerby.
All the employees who were working overtime were gathered here. Zhang Li was negotiating with their team leader, and Wu Siqi walked over in steps.
Zhang Li argued loudly, "We can't stop working. The event is only two days away, and you're detaining all of us without any reason or evidence. That's illegal, Officer Huang."
Nan Nan from their group B was standing closest, and Wu Siqi asked her quietly, "What happened? What are they arguing about?"
Nan Nan, who was about the same height as her, raised her hand to cover her mouth and whispered in her ear, "Just now, these police cars rushed in and called all of us over. The officer in charge, Officer Huang, said they had received reliable information about clues to a recent missing child case. They wanted to seal this place off for investigation. We staff members are not allowed to contact the outside world and must remain under investigation on the spot."
There was a lot of noise all around. Wu Siqi touched his nose and said "hmm", "I'll go over there."
When he got closer, he saw them arguing. Officer Huang was standing there with his hands on his hips, looking at him. His neck was completely invisible, and his voice was full of energy. Wu Siqi could even smell a strong stench of tobacco when he got closer.
She and Zhang Li, two tall and thin professional women, stood side by side in front of him, their momentum not inferior to his. Wu Siqi toughened his tone: "Hello, Officer Huang, I am also one of the persons in charge at the scene, my last name is Wu."
"We can cooperate with the investigation, Officer Huang. Please give us a precise timeline. How long will the investigation take? When will we be investigated? We are willing to cooperate with the police and the public, but not indefinitely. After all, ordinary people like us need to eat."
Zhang Li held her forearm and felt that she was using the other party to gain strength from her. Now was the time to unite and face the outside world. Wu Siqi did not refuse. She raised her hand and patted the back of her hand, then turned her head and gave her a powerful look.
Turning his head, Wu Siqi looked at Officer Huang with a fearless look, waiting for his reply.
He looked at his watch and said, "Three hours. If we haven't found what we want in three hours, we will leave. Please cooperate and take people to turn on all the lights in the park. Then send a few people who are familiar with the site to lead our investigation." Officer Huang said nothing more and waved his hand to let the other policemen hurry up and do what they should do.
Zhang Li directed her people in an orderly manner: "Okay, Lao Gao, you go to the electrical room and turn on the lights. Nan Nan, you guys go lead the way. The engineering team, you guys can sit here and rest for a while."
Wu Siqi could hear that her voice was trembling a little, and this person was not as fearless as she looked.
More than twenty police officers came with several police dogs. They were divided into six teams to search the park in different areas. Wu Siqi followed one of the teams to the free activity area.
This side was open, surrounded by trees and grass. The policeman with the police dog was sniffing the smell carefully with the dog, while the others stepped into the grass to look for what they wanted.
Wu Siqi was not very interested in people. She stood aside and stared at the yellow Labrador, which had beautiful shiny fur and a strong and well-proportioned body. Its tail did not wag excitedly while it was performing its mission. Instead, it lowered its head and carefully sniffed the ground for clues, its nose wagging left and right, which was very cute.
Police dogs are expensive, but they sent so many of them out at once to look for so-called evidence. It seems that the missing cases in the news have long been classified as homicides internally. They really love to whitewash the situation.
Watching all this with a cold eye, Wu Siqi thought of Yi Ning. Did she find any substantial evidence? Calling so many people here really caused her a lot of trouble.
The cell phone had just been handed over, and they were only given five minutes to explain their whereabouts. She called several leaders to explain the current situation, and Zhang Li called the park management to explain the situation.
The violent warrior Zhang Li felt that this group of policemen was incomprehensible. They thought that an amusement park that had just been renovated and not yet opened to the public could have any kind of case evidence. She was in a very irritable state when she made the call.
If I hadn't met Yi Ning just now, I might have been like her, feeling confused about everything happening in front of me, but with the appearance of that person, the matter became credible. There were staff members everywhere. How did she avoid so many people and still find out reliable information?
She developed a strong interest in Yi Ning's secrets.
This lovely woman is not just an ordinary band manager.
While she was thinking, the Labrador seemed to have discovered some incredible treasure and began to dig frantically in the huge sand pool in the park.
"We've found something! Come here quickly." The policeman holding it waved to everyone to gather over.
Four policemen ran over quickly, took out an engineering shovel from somewhere, and started digging around the police dog.
Wu Siqi moved over curiously, but didn't stand too close for fear of being splashed by sand. It had been drizzling for the past few days, and the sun had only dried the sand on the surface. The sand dug from the ground had become wet and sticky, and made a dull crackling sound when shoveled.
The flying sand piled up into a small hill on the concrete floor. Suddenly, the police officer holding the police dog stopped and shouted in a high voice:
"Stop! Everyone, stop!"
The sound was like a muffled thunder, falling heavily.
In an instant, the scene suddenly became quiet. The sound of shovels colliding disappeared, the sound of dog claws digging disappeared, the wind and birds singing disappeared, and Wu Siqi could hear the sound of his blood vessels jumping, boom, boom, boom.
He picked up the intercom at his waist again, pressed the communication button, and said in a hurried and trembling voice: "Area C! Here in the sand pit of Area C! We found something! Director Huang! Director Huang! Come quickly!"
Frightened by his deep voice, her heart tightened. Wu Siqi leaned closer and looked down. She had to look. Everything in front of her was so shocking that she couldn't breathe. Her heart was gripped tightly and her scalp was numb.
In the sand pit, there are several huge vacuum bags with irregular protrusions. The outermost layer is covered with sand and has not been completely dug out. The pointed corners of the little lotus are just beginning to show and are being peeled open inch by inch.
A pale little hand was revealed from a vacuum bag, palm facing upwards, fingers bent, as if praying to the heavens for salvation, or...
wave.
One of the vacuum bags was slightly more exposed, and the parts in this bag were a bit fragmented and separated into several pieces, pale and purple.
Wu Siqi was trembling all over. The tragic scene before her was so tragic that even a former veterinarian with extensive experience in dissecting animals could hardly hold back the churning in her throat and she almost fell to her knees.
She covered her mouth with her hands and took a few steps back, her body shaking uncontrollably and a chill running up her spine.
The sound of running footsteps came from all directions like raindrops.
The rest of the police rushed to the scene. Many of them were probably young police officers. Many of them were so frightened by the tragic scene in front of them that their legs went limp. One male police officer even vomited while holding onto a tree.
Director Huang arrived a little late. He glanced at the sand pit, his face heavy and solemn, looking as if water could be squeezed out of it. He stood by the pit with his big belly bulging, his voice so low it was almost blown away by the wind:
"Seal off the scene."
He paused, as if swallowing something, and said, "Call the medical examiner."
"All on-site staff, no one can leave. All of them must give statements. Even those who have already left work will be called to our station to give statements."
He didn't say anything more, but just stared at the small hand for a long time with a frown.
A young female police officer walked over to Wu Siqi and supported her gently. "Ms. Wu, let me help you to the side. Don't be afraid." Wu Siqi sat on a stone bench nearby. The female officer asked her, "Do you need me to accompany you?"
Wu Siqi forced himself to stop shaking and waved his hand, "I'm fine, go ahead and do your work."
The female police officer said in a soft voice: "Okay, call me anytime if you need anything." She turned around to help.
Holding her forehead with her slightly trembling hands, Wu Siqi's mind went blank and she completely lost the ability to think. The sight of the flowers blooming in the night was too shocking for her.
A cat and two fairies standing on the treetop calmly watched everything happening below the tree.
"Your Xiaowu must be scared out of his wits. Why don't you go and give him a kiss, a hug, and hold him up high to comfort him." Xie Ling covered his mouth and teased Yi Ning.
Yi Ning raised his foot and kicked her, "Get out! You are still saying useless things at this time."
An invisible force blocked her foot. Xie Ling winked at her and said, "You can't kick it."
Yi Ning was furious and snarled at her. Fan Yu interrupted their frolicking and said coldly, "Be quiet. All eight have been dug out."
The two men focused their attention back on the sand pit. A cordon was set up at the scene, and eight vacuum bags were brought out and lined up in a row. They were then covered with black cloth, and the trace investigators were taking photos and collecting evidence at the scene.
Two young police officers were recording Wu Siqi's statement. One of them held a pen, paper and a recorder while the other was responsible for asking questions. They questioned Wu Siqi about his schedule for the month and his memories of each day.
They questioned Wu Siqi for a long time, and her mood gradually calmed down. She kept her eyes on the sand pit. One, two... five... eight. She remembered that the report said four children were missing.
She thought that a perverted serial killer had appeared in this city.
Thinking of this, she shuddered with fear, which made the police officer who was recording her statement think that his questions reminded this beautiful woman of the tragic situation in the sand pit. He asked her with concern: "If you feel uncomfortable, let's pause for a while before asking questions."
Wu Siqi shook his head: "I can continue."
After recording her confession, the police officer who interrogated her took her to a rest area.
There is a long street in the center of the children's park, with restaurants, shops, and small stalls for entertainment. They arranged the on-site staff who had finished questioning to rest here.
When Wu Siqi arrived here, some colleagues who had finished interrogation were already sitting here. Nan Nan and Zhang Li were sitting at the opposite corners of a dining table with a parasol, chatting from time to time.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn. After a busy day, people were exhausted after encountering such a thing. Everyone was mentally exhausted. The more unruly colleagues simply lay down on the stone bench and fell asleep.
Wu Siqi sat next to Nan Nan, facing Zhang Li. Zhang Li said, "You're here."
