Chapter 109: A Case with No Progress

"Hasn't any of the missing people been found yet?"

"Yes."

“Some people say it’s a water monster.”

The vague words added a bit of tension to the atmosphere.

"Yeah, but not many people believe it. Most people just watch the fun."

Zhang Shu was silent. He was a little confused. Wasn't he just going to buy some water? How could there be so many possibilities?
……

"Well--"

The police car is coming.

The entire Zizhuyuan Park was in a frenzy.

Many people even followed the police car to the lake.

In a blink of an eye, a lot of people gathered around the lake.

The two police cars braked one after another and the police officers got out one after another.

"Who called the police?"

……

"Another missing person." The middle-aged policeman has a square face and a righteous look. His furrowed brows make him look more majestic.

But now there was a dark spot under his eyes, his beard was untidy, and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that he had not had a good rest for several days.

This case has received special attention from the bureau, and the higher-ups are also paying close attention to the progress of the case.

But after these few days, there has been no progress.

All the investigators have been sleeping in the bureau for several days.

But the number of missing persons is still increasing.

It's simply a mockery of their incompetence!

……

Lu Xiaoxiao explained the situation to the police eloquently.

The police immediately launched an investigation.

Now that the news of the missing persons case in Zizhuyuan Park has gradually spread, more and more people have learned about this situation.

But this is the first time the police have received a report of a disappearance so close to the time of the disappearance.

So they take it very seriously, maybe this time they can find some clues about the suspect.

……

The police set up a cordon around the lake.

The park manager has also rushed over.

Xiao Xiao and his group followed the police to the monitoring room, and at the police's request, helped them identify Zhu Wei.

The atmosphere in Zizhuyuan Park suddenly became tense.

A large number of police officers poured in.

This time they raced against time to find the suspect.

……

However, Xiao Xiao and his team will not be able to participate in the subsequent case handling process.

Walking out of Zizhuyuan Park, the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Even Zhang Shu was in a bad mood. Everything went wrong today. His chance meeting and traveling companions was ruined by irrelevant people, and then his follower disappeared.

Because of his relationship with Zhu Wei, he was questioned by the police for a long time.

However, when in front of a beautiful woman, one still needs to maintain proper demeanor.

"Where are you going next, little deer?"

"How about we go back?" Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the other girls inquiringly.

"Ah."

"Let's go back. We are in no mood to play anymore."

"Let's go back to the dormitory and stay there."

"I want to go practice dancing."

"Okay, that's it. Let's go straight back to school." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Zhang Shu.

"I'll see you off."

"I have to go back to school anyway, so it's on my way."

They were originally students from the same school. After thinking about it, Lu Xiaoxiao had no reason to refuse Zhang Shu's proposal, so she simply agreed, "Well, let's go back together."

……

"What about you?" Lu Xiaoxiao turned to Xiao Xiao and the others and asked.

"We are going back too?" Zhuge Yun looked at Xiao Xiao and the others, and after getting their nods in response, he affirmed to Lu Xiaoxiao and the others, "We are going back too."

"Oh, then we'll say goodbye here." Lu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, revealing two cute dimples.

"Well, bye." "Bye."

……

Just when Xiao Xiao was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly felt his sleeve being grabbed. He looked down and met Lu Xiaoxiao's smiling crescent-like eyes.

"Xiao Xiao, can you give me your phone number?"

Xiao Xiao:?
"After all, our names are so related."

"I always felt like we would become good friends."

Lu Xiaoxiao put her hands behind her back and explained in a serious tone.

But Xiao Xiao couldn't help laughing.

"Yeah, I think so too."

……

Until the girls' backs could no longer be seen, Zhuge Yun greeted Xiao Xiao with his elbow.

"Good boy, didn't you see the expression on Zhang Shu's face before he left? Tsk tsk, it was as if he wanted to eat someone."

"is it?"

"That boy doesn't look like a good person at first glance. He deserves it."

……

"Third brother, you are so lucky in love!"

"..."

"Yes, boy, you have the beautiful lady Su in front and the little girl Xiaolu behind you. Tell me, how can you be so heartless?"

……

"Hey, do you think I will meet a beauty with the same name as mine in the future?"

"Boss, you better dream faster."

……

"Fei Fei~" Fei Fei jumped onto Xiao Xiao's shoulder. Xiao Xiao did not turn his head to look immediately. Instead, he took a few steps back while the others were not paying attention, and then looked at Fei Fei inquiringly.

"Feifei~" Feifei shook his head in frustration.

Didn't find anything?
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but doubt his own guess. Maybe it really wasn't a monster causing trouble?
……

"Old Third, what are you doing? Walking so slowly?"

"Oh, here we come."

Forget it. Today is the critical moment and there is nothing we can do.

Come back and take a look later when you're alone.

……

The case of missing persons in Zizhuyuan Park has remained a hot topic, and Zhu Wei has not been found. Like the twelve previous missing persons, there has been no news of him.

And later on, new missing persons continued to appear.

So far, the number of missing persons has reached seventeen.

The missing persons include both men and women, aged between 18 and 35.

So apart from the water monster theory, some people also speculated whether they were captured for human experiments? Or were they captured and their organs removed for sale? Or were they captured by human smuggling gangs and sold to remote places?
There are many different opinions, but there is still no final conclusion.

The police were even more worried and kept watch at Zizhuyuan Park all day.

……

Xiao Xiao has also been paying attention to the relevant information and progress of the missing persons case in Zizhuyuan Park.

The Internet has been abuzz with this incident for quite some time.

There is a lot of relevant information, but it is difficult to tell whether it is true or false.

Xiao Xiao has no classes tomorrow afternoon, so he decides to go to Zizhuyuan Park again. If he doesn't find anything, he will give up the idea that this incident was caused by a monster.

……

Zizhuyuan Park has lost its former quietness and has become more lively.

Fortunately, apart from the places where people disappeared which were particularly lively, other places were still somewhat quiet.

The police have thought about blocking Zizhuyuan Park, but if they do that, wouldn’t that mean they would also be keeping criminals out?

Today’s police have no idea where to search for criminals if Zizhuyuan Park is closed.

Therefore, they had no choice but to deploy police guards in Zizhuyuan Park.

However, they were originally worried that if the incident became a hot topic, would the criminals stop committing crimes? And knowing that the police were guarding here, would the criminals still commit crimes?

It turns out that they thought too much.

The criminals completely treat the police as a mere decoration and continue to commit crimes without any intention of restraining themselves.

However, this arrogant attitude makes people even more angry.

All the police officers are trying their best to bring the criminals to justice, and their enthusiasm for work is extremely high.
