Chapter 216 Water 1 Part
On the afternoon of January 2011, 1, the weather was gloomy.
A female clerk went missing from a 5-Eleven convenience store 711 kilometers away from Lai Jun's apartment.
This time, after receiving the report, the police quickly dispatched a police car and rushed to the scene.
Not only was there a problem with the surveillance of Lai Jun last night, but this situation occurred today. Due to their serious suspicion of Lai Jun, they naturally responded quickly when George intervened. They had already fixed their suspicions on Lai Jun.
There was a colleague in the 711 convenience store who had a good relationship with the missing female clerk. Usually when it was time to change shifts, she would stay a little longer to chat with the female clerk. But today, she didn't see her friend coming, and no one answered her phone calls several times (the female clerk was always punctual and would even arrive early), which made her feel uneasy.
Faced with this situation, she decisively chose to call the police.
Although we cannot conclude that Lai Jun is the only suspect based on these signs alone, the development of the entire incident is too strange and too pointed to be ignored.
Finally, with the approval of George Stacy, Lai Jun was arrested first.
Unfortunately, they did not have enough strong evidence, and all they could do was to forcibly detain them and find out the situation within a limited time.
After all, according to the law, if the police cannot find enough evidence to prove the suspect's guilt within the specified time, then they must release the suspect.
George knew very well that he would probably meet the same person again this time, but he didn't know whether it was a super criminal or the monster from those times.
His headache started again, and he pinched the bridge of his nose with his index finger and thumb to relieve the pain. It seemed that he had to find time to take a vacation.
But now there are still many things waiting for him to deal with, and he has to continue to stick to his post.
Due to the nature of the case, the police station has already formed a corresponding task force locally.
George was temporarily sent down from above. This time he also brought his own team from Manhattan with him. The purpose was to speed up the work progress. The main reason was that it was easier to use his own people.
George came to inquire about the progress of the case. He sent his team out to search for clues, while the local team formed in Queens was responsible for reviewing the surveillance video.
Unfortunately, however, the monitoring team did not find any valuable clues, and all the images appeared to be peaceful.
This is completely different from what the surveillance police officer said. The surveillance police officer's testimony was that the target person suddenly disappeared and then suddenly reappeared after a period of time.
During that period, Lai Jun was captured on camera walking into the 711 convenience store to purchase items as normal, and then walked back home as normal after completing the purchase.
According to the surveillance police, they were like being blinded by ghosts during this period.
And from the surveillance footage, it seemed as if they were blinded by ghosts. Their movements were irregular and they were running around like headless flies.
George was now 100% sure. As police officers, they generally wouldn't lie. If it was true...
That was indeed a headache. The key point was that it was difficult to explain to others. George began to scratch his head.
The originally abundant heads began to become a little scarce.
George sighed. It was meaningless to ask the monitoring team to stop their work. He wanted to see if his team could bring him good news, although he did not have much hope.
....................................
Early morning on December 1th.
The sunlight poured into Ling Zhan's apartment through the window.
Ling Zhan Ling Zhan stretched and yawned. He had nothing to do these days, so he paid attention to the news reports that something happened in Queens.
It was originally just a small case, but it became bigger and bigger; there was no movement from the Green Goblin either.
The police were unable to solve the case quickly, and they even sent out George Stacy, their most capable officer, but they still couldn't solve the case, which gave them quite a headache.
Nowadays, people's impression of the police is basically terrible.
People only think of the police when they are in need.
After all, superheroes nowadays do almost all the police work.
Ling Zhan read the report in the newspaper with great interest, and secretly speculated in his heart: "This case may not be simple..."
Since even George got involved in the case, Ling Zhan had a feeling that this was no ordinary case.
So far, the police have been unwilling to reveal more clues, and the criminals seem to deliberately choose their targets and continue to commit crimes, as if announcing the police's incompetence to the world.
"Are you also following this case?"
Li Xing walked out of the room wearing loose white pajamas.
Under the backlight, Li Xing's slim and stylish figure is very obvious.
Seeing this scene, Ling Zhan immediately lowered his head and ate.
Look no further!
"Well, I just read it today. It was just an insignificant case before. It wasn't even reported."
"This time it's related to Hora. The Fan Dog Institute has already issued a mission, and Aikongli will handle it."
Li Xing had finished washing up long ago, and she went straight to drinking some soy milk.
"Given Aikongli's position, shouldn't we arrange a wizard or a knight to help him?"
"Yes, but I don't know who went there."
"Usually, we would arrange for a magician to take action in combination with his family's tactics."
Ling Zhan looked up slightly to see that Li Xing was not so... see-through, then he raised his head to look at this friend who looked extremely beautiful even without makeup.
"But in my opinion, considering his close combat ability, it would be better to send a Knight of the Ring to help."
"Normally speaking, he is strong enough to deal with ordinary Hora, but he is afraid of encountering a magic Hora."
"That's true. Magic Hora is too special. We really need more powerful support to deal with him..."
The Senate will open very quickly, and with the help of the teleportation array, the Dragon Girl will naturally come back very early, and the mission will naturally be assigned by the Dragon Girl.
But from what Li Xing said, Longnv had a very unhappy expression on her face. It seemed that the content of this meeting was not very good. Even someone like Longnv, who was not easily angered, showed an unhappy expression for the first time.
Ling Zhan had never been to the Senate yet, but most of the knights with titles had been to the Senate at least once.
Forget it, if they are not called, then it has nothing to do with them, and their cross-school party is coming soon.
He and Li Xing were quite looking forward to it, even though Li Xing often attended hotel banquets.
That's why people say Li Xing is extremely suitable for spy work and has strong social skills.
Speaking of this, Ling Zhan suddenly felt that Li Xing only helped him, wasn't that a waste of her talent...
Forget it, I won’t think about it for now. I can ask Li Xing for her opinion later.
I just hope nothing unexpected happens at this party!
