The Devil is Lurking By Your Side

This morning, Lin Xin, Mei Hua and Yang Cong gathered in the hotel restaurant, and the three of them sat together for breakfast. Lin Xin saw that the hotel was very remote and found that very few people came to stay here. Apart from the three of them, there are only two waiters working in the restaurant.

"Sister Lin, we have been in Longshi for three days, and it seems that we haven't noticed any movement." Yang Cong whispered, and his eyes quickly swept aside to make sure that no one heard them.

"Well, I have just quietly contacted Police Officer Tang in Longshi. He said that no one in the bureau came to report the missing, so I think there shouldn't be any major incidents here recently." Lin Xin frowned.

Is their guess wrong? The Chua brothers really have nothing to do with this case?

Even so, Lin Xin didn't want to give up the only clue she held in her hand. The Cai brothers had such a coincidence with Peng Jingchun a few days ago, which made Lin Xin and others decide to stay in Longshi for a few days to see if they had any other movements.

However, 3 days have passed, but there is no turbulence at all.

Are the two Chua brothers evil or good?

Just as the three people were talking in a low voice in the restaurant, Lin Xin's mobile phone rang without warning. She quickly took out her mobile phone and saw that the number on the mobile phone actually came from the Long City Public Security Bureau.

She quickly answered the phone and asked in a low voice, "Officer Tang, how is it?"

On the other side, police officer Tang’s strong voice sounded, and he only heard him say: “Officer Lin, someone came to report the disappearance, and the other party claimed to be a junior at XX University in Longshi.”

"Okay, let's go over immediately!" Lin Xin covered the phone and said to the other two people: "Let's go, Officer Tang said that someone has come to report the case and is missing. The other party is a junior student."

Mei Hua and the others nodded, and then got into the car with Lin Xin, and the three drove quickly to the Public Security Bureau.

When they arrived at the Public Security Bureau, they were led to a conference hall by the police officer there. After stepping into the conference hall, they saw a young girl sitting in front of Officer Tang.

"Inspector Lin, come in." Officer Tang greeted, looking up at them.

Lin Xin nodded, and sat beside Officer Tang without saying a word. She looked up at the girl and saw that her eyes were already red and swollen from crying.

"What's the matter?" Lin Xin asked.

After the girl saw Lin Xin, she immediately said: "Police officer, I have a roommate who disappeared a week ago. I thought she went to her boyfriend's house for the night, but when her boyfriend came to our dormitory to look for her, we I realized that she was missing."

After hearing this, Lin Xin asked her: "What's your name?"

"My name is Zeng Xiaoying," the girl said.

Lin Xin nodded and asked, "Xiaoying, where is your roommate's boyfriend? Why doesn't he come to report the crime in person?"

After listening to Xiaoying, she said embarrassingly: "Her boyfriend told me that he has something to deal with in the past few days, and asked me to report the crime first."

Although Lin Xin was full of doubts, she was curious as to why her boyfriend was not willing to report the crime in person after his girlfriend had disappeared, but instead asked her roommate to come over first.

What is this boyfriend thinking?

"So, what's your friend's name?" Lin Xin continued to ask.

"She's named Chen Yanling and she lives in Zhongshi. She came to Longshi XX University to study three years ago. She is currently a junior like me." Xiaoying said.

"Zhongshi... Zhongshi and Longshi are so far apart... Then, have you contacted her parents?" Lin Xin said.

Xiaoying nodded immediately and said: "Contacted, her parents took the flight this morning and are on their way to Longshi."

"When did you find her missing?" Lin Xin asked again.

Xiaoying hesitated and said, "Just... just 3 days ago."

Lin Xin frowned and asked, "3 days ago? Why did it take so long to report the crime?"

Xiaoying couldn't help but lowered her eyes and said, "It was all her boyfriend said. Her boyfriend told us not to report the crime, and said that we should look for her whereabouts first. Therefore, we listened to him and did not report the crime. However, only a few days after we searched for her and we still couldn't find her, we decided to report the case."

Officer Tang gave a "oh" and said, "You should have reported the case long ago. After she has disappeared so many geniuses to report the case, is there any rescue?"

When Xiaoying heard the last sentence from Officer Tang, she was immediately frightened and her face was blue and red. She anxiously asked: "Officer, what should I do? You said, will Lingling have an accident?"

Lin Xin later comforted Xiaoying and said, "Xiaoying, don't worry. Officer Tang will send someone to look for it now. I think you should go back first. We will make a note for you first. If we find her, We will contact you again."

Seeing a trace of sincerity in Lin Xin's eyes, Xiaoying nodded and said, "Police officer, thank you. Please let us know when you have news..."

When she said this, she stretched out her hand and took out a photo from her trouser pocket, spread it out in front of Lin Xin and others, pointed to a girl standing on the left hand side of the photo, and said, "It's her, she's Lingling... Officer, you must find her."

Lin Xin looked at the photo carefully, took out the phone and took the photo, and then said to Xiaoying: "Okay, we will remember. If we have the latest news, we will let you know."

After a pause, she asked again, "By the way, Xiaoying, do you remember when you last saw Chen Yanling?"

"It was at the school dinner a week ago. At that time, she came to the dinner with her boyfriend, and I came alone. I went back earlier than them, and then I never saw her come back to the dormitory. , So I thought that Chen Yanling would live at her boyfriend’s house for a few days later, so she didn’t even bother, who knows..."

When Xiaoying said this, she felt guilty in her heart. She thought that if she could pay more attention, perhaps Chen Yanling would not disappear.

"Okay, I see. Xiaoying, Chen Yanling's disappearance is not your fault. We will try our best to find her for you." Lin Xin later walked to Xiaoying's side and patted her back for fear.

Just after everyone sent Xiaoying out of the Public Security Bureau, Officer Tang said: "I have sent people to look around for Miss Chen Yanling's whereabouts, hoping to find her."

When he said this, he sighed again. Seeing him like this, Lin Xin knew what he was thinking deep inside, and knew that since Chen Yanling had been missing for so long, she probably had no good luck when she found it.

It's just that everyone hasn't found her yet, and no corpses have been found, so they all have a trace of luck.

Lin Xin turned her head and asked Officer Tang, "Is there any major case in Longshi recently? Or some ordinary robbery?"

Officer Tang thought about it for a while and said, "That's not true. Even ordinary robberies are rare here. However, now that someone has reported the missing to us, I think it is very likely that one will happen. Big case..."

After a pause, he said again: "However, I hope everything is a false alarm."

Lin Xin looked up at the distance and murmured: "I hope that this disappearance has nothing to do with the sexual assault and murder case in Yangshi. Otherwise, the murderer can be said to have committed the crime across provinces. If this is the case. It can be said that we want to track down his whereabouts as difficult as the sky."

"Yes, and he also has his own car." Officer Tang said.

Lin Xin gave an "um", and then said: "Since Officer Tang has sent someone out to look for it, I think what we can do is to continue to wait, and then pay attention to the news that Officer Wu received in Yangshi."

Although this disappearance may not be related to the murder of Peng Jingchun, it undoubtedly added trouble to the police.

Officer Tang turned and asked Lin Xin: "Officer Lin, what are your team's plans? Are you still staying at Longshi?"

"Of course." Lin Xin nodded and said.

"Well, that's fine. If we have any news, please contact Officer Lin as soon as possible. However, I still hope that this disappearance has nothing to do with the murder in Yangshi." Officer Tang said slowly.

Lin Xin and others later left the Public Security Bureau. Yang Cong asked while driving, "Sister Lin, what do you think we should do now?"

"Let's go to XX University first, I want to go there first, maybe we can see some clues." Lin Xin said.

Although it may not be possible to find out after transferring to university, it can even be said that there is little hope, but Lin Xin always feels that things are very strange.

Why is it such a coincidence that there will be a young woman missing at this moment, and the missing person disappeared a week ago, I don't know whether this matter is related to Peng Jingchun's sexual assault case.

Yang Cong drove slowly towards XX University in accordance with Lin Xin's instructions. Everyone saw that the location of this university was actually located in such a quiet environment, but there were a lot of shops and bars on the roadside, and they knew it was built specifically for college students studying here.

Lin Xin secretly remembered the terrain in her heart. She saw that there were a few streets that were very secretive, and thought that there might be many gangsters hidden here, and it would be quite dangerous for a woman walking alone in these streets.

And has Chen Yanling walked here before?

"I was wondering why Chen Yanling's boyfriend didn't come to the Public Security Bureau to report the case in person." Lin Xin said leisurely.

"Sister Lin, I also feel very strange..." Mei Hua couldn't help but straighten up and said.

"Onion, what do you think?" Lin Xin asked, turning her head to look at Yang Onion.

"Sister Lin, this... I think they might have quarreled on the day Chen Yanling disappeared... Now, his girlfriend is missing, he should be afraid of things, so he didn't dare to report the crime, so let her roommate come first. The Public Security Bureau," Yang Cong said.

in argument?

"Well, maybe that's the case." Lin Xin said thoughtfully.

For some reason, she suddenly remembered the two men and women who had reported to the Yang City Public Security Bureau and found Peng Jingchun's body. At that time, the young man was also arguing with his girlfriend, so the faces of both of them were very ugly that day, and the man also showed a cowardly attitude.

"Yang Cong, why are you men so scared sometimes?" Lin Xin asked.

Just as Yang Cong wanted to answer, Lin Xin's cell phone rang quickly. She quickly picked up the phone, only to hear the voice of Police Officer Tang hurriedly saying: "Officer Lin, it's not good, the team I sent is on a riverside. A female body was found inside..."

The author has something to say: Attention, little angels, this time a girl named Chen Yanling is missing, not Xiao Wei.
