Chapter 85 Entering the Room
Chi Xia went out and called Lin Wenjue, then looked at the phone with a cold brow and sent a message to Shi Tianyi.
【First determine life or death.】
Just as I was about to enter the forensic room after sending this message, Luo Xun came out: "There are no new clues, let's go back first."
Not long after the two returned to the task force, Lin Wenjue and his team came back with a large pile of missing case information.
"Originally, we planned to collect data on missing persons within a year just in case. Chi Xia called us just now, which actually reduced our workload."
Lin Wenjue said as he took the information from the table: "That kid Lu Tao didn't want to give it to us at first, and Lao Cao almost got into a fight with him. Here, the information of all the missing persons within six months is here. We have to sort it out ourselves and pick out the missing women."
Everyone got to work immediately and it took about half an hour to sort out the information of the missing women.
"Team Two has quite a bit of work to do."
Cao Bin pointed at the information and said, "There are so many missing persons cases in just six months. I see that Lu Tao is usually quite punctual when he goes to get off work. I will report him later. This guy is not serving the people well!"
Luo Xun picked up a stack of information and checked it. After hearing what he said, he said, "Missing cases are hard to investigate, let alone the disappearance of an adult. Although the information system is so advanced now, it is not easy to find a person if he disappears intentionally."
Lin Wenjue also continued his words: "The identification of missing persons cases is complicated. To find a missing person, a lot of police force and material resources are invested. There is nothing we can do about it. Many missing persons cases are left unsolved in the end."
"Unless it becomes a criminal case."
Cao Bin picked up a document and said, "Sometimes no news is the best news. For example, the bones found today, if they are really missing persons, then..."
Luo Xun didn't say anything more, sighed, and went to get another piece of information. Suddenly, he thought, what if the deceased was missing and no one reported it? What if the deceased was originally a marginalized person who was alienated from the crowd?
He finished reading the document in his hand and was about to speak when he saw Chi Xia suddenly turn his head to look at him.
She said, "Captain Luo, do we still need to check if there are any related reports recently? Although it is likely that we will report a missing persons case, but... maybe there are exceptions?"
Curly was right beside her, and heard what she said, "Xiao Xia, are you worried that if the deceased was killed by someone close to her, then the other party would definitely try to conceal the truth about the deceased's disappearance, just like that... the wife-killing case some time ago, where it took the deceased's parents half a year to realize that their daughter had been murdered?"
"Yes, we can't rule out this possibility." Chi Xia said, and then looked at Luo Xun: "Captain Luo, what do you think?"
Luo Xun nodded: "You are right, Curly, go check this out."
Curly immediately put down the information in his hand and said, "Okay, let's go right away!"
As soon as he left, the remaining four people silently searched for clues in the numerous missing case files.
While they were searching for the identity of the nameless skeleton, Qu Bai woke up from a long coma in a private garden villa in the suburbs.
Ade, who had been standing by his side, showed surprise in his eyes. He hurried over and said, "Sir, you're awake!"
Qu Bai's mind was in a daze. He looked at the person in front of him sharply. After several seconds, he recognized that it was Ade. The defensiveness and indifference in his eyes disappeared. The first thing he asked was: "How is she doing?"
"You should eat something first." Ade turned around to get the porridge: "You slept for two days during this coma."
Qu Bai didn't care much. He supported himself and sat up, his face pale and weak: "Let me ask you, how is she doing?"
His voice turned cold. Ade was secretly frightened and didn't dare to act on his own. He put down the bowl in his hand and stood respectfully in front of Qu Bai: "Sir, I suspect someone has entered Miss Chi's house."
Qu Bai looked at him suddenly, with murderous intent in his eyes: "People from her side?"
Ade lowered his head: "I doubt it."
"How did you handle it?"
Qu Bai threw back the quilt and got out of bed. Ade immediately went to support him. "Originally, I wanted to go in and take a look, but I don't know Miss Chi's habits. I'm afraid I might end up making things worse, so I wanted to ask you what you think. However, with Miss Chi's ability, she will soon find out that someone has been in there."
"uncertain."
Qu Bai's voice was cold: "She has always been cautious in doing things. You forgot that she has someone under her who is best at restoring the scene."
"Then let's..." Ade looked at him.
Qu Bai pushed his arm away and walked to the window. He pulled aside the white curtains to look at the view outside. He saw that the roses and hydrangeas in the garden were growing well. There were also flower farmers busy nearby, planting new flowers in the yard.
Bird of Paradise, a flower selected by Qu Bai himself.
He smiled, his eyes full of tenderness: "Let's go there."
Ade frowned: "You just..."
"Everyone can have fun under the dark..." He said sarcastically, "Let's go now."
Ade never went against his wishes, and at this moment he just said, "Miss Chi has a new case, so she won't be off work so soon. We should still have time."
"Yeah." Qu Bai had already gone to pick out clothes: "By the way, how did you deal with those three people?"
"I've put it back. Don't worry, it hasn't been exposed." said Ade.
"I don't want her to find out anything." Qu Bai warned, "Even if she does, it shouldn't be any useful clues."
Ade lowered his head: "Understood."
Qu Bai didn't say anything else and went into the cloakroom to change clothes. Ade looked at the porridge on the table and said cautiously, "You should eat something."
"Got it." Qu Bai came out quickly, picked up the bowl of porridge and scooped a few spoonfuls of it quickly.
Ade seemed to be hesitant to speak, but in the end he said nothing.
It was not difficult for Qu Bai to enter Chi Xia's house, so he did not let Ade in.
He stood in the middle of the living room, looking around the house, his stern face now showing a bit of warmth.
At this time, Qu Bai seemed like a living person.
"Little fox, little fox."
He called out the name softly with a smile on his face, but soon his expression became serious as he observed the house to see if there were any signs of outsider intervention.
Chi Xia is cautious, to a certain extent, she doesn't even trust herself.
Even though this is her home, she would not reveal her secrets. Those hidden things would be difficult for the people sent by the other party to find.
Including Qu Bai. Besides, he didn't come here with the purpose of seeing her living environment.
Qu Bai walked around and finally walked into the bathroom, the place most easily overlooked by intruders.
So he discovered the needles and medicines that Chi Xia had hidden. When he saw those things, Qu Bai stood there in a daze, first shocked, and then angry.
When he came out again, Ade immediately felt that he was very angry.
"Go check." Qu Bai stuffed a ring into Ade's hand: "The sample is inside, very little, be careful."
Ade knew the purpose of his ring. It was usually used to hide some things, such as medicine.
His expression instantly became serious: "Over there...was it also done over there?"
"No, it should have nothing to do with her."
Qu Bai's eyes darkened : "The faster the better, I want to know what this thing is used for."
Just as Ah De was about to respond, Qu Bai said, "Go now, right now, right away!"
Ade left quickly. Qu Bai went down the stairs and walked slowly to the community garden. Listening to the children's laughter around him, he looked up at the sun and squinted his eyes to feel its warmth.
His voice was soft, and it was unclear whether he was speaking to himself or to someone else.
He said, "Little fox, you have to live on, and live for a long, long time."
