Chapter 27 Missing
When Fu Qi heard this, it was as if a bell was ringing, which shocked his mind.

Most of the people who report missing are relatives and friends of the missing persons. Lincheng is a first-tier big city, and there are many people who come here to work alone and have shallow social relationships.

"Go check the consumption records of credit card and savings card, and also send people to check some places where black households may exist."

"I'll go right away." After Fu Qi finished speaking, he hesitated to speak.

Han Chen smiled lightly: "Go back and remind Yao Wan a little bit, she will naturally think of it. If you want to give credit to her, I have no objection."

"Okay." Fu Qiben was about to hang up the phone, but after thinking about it, he explained: "I just saw her as a little girl come to us, and she was mentioned in this position as soon as she came, so I couldn't help but feel pressure."

Han Chen laughed softly: "Why are you talking so much, I don't know you yet? Besides, it's good for everyone to catch someone as soon as possible. You don't have to stay up late, and I also..."

After listening for a long time, Fu Qi had nothing to say, and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

He also didn't have to protect Xu Xing anymore.Han Chen lowered his eyes slightly: "It's nothing, you go to the bureau, sort out all the information of Gao Xuan's victims and send them to me."

Fu Qi was puzzled: "What do you want this for?"

"Do you still remember a suspicious point I mentioned after Gao Xuan was arrested?" Han Chen said lightly, "The suspicious point still exists now."

Gao Xuan's modus operandi is cruel, very personal, and has a clear meaning of display.What he wants is to put the corpse in a public place where people can watch it to earn more people's attention and panic.But his victims are almost all buried in secret places. To him, this is tantamount to spending a lot of effort to complete a work of art but no one appreciates it, which is extremely inconsistent with his behavior pattern.

In the past, Han Chen thought it was because he wanted to avoid being detected by the police so that he could harm more people, even though for him, curbing the desire to expose the corpse was no less than curbing the urge to kill.

But Xu Xing was almost killed yesterday, and the perpetrator was not Gao Xuan who made him realize, maybe... there were other factors that forced him to restrain himself.

In the psychological analysis of the crime against Gao Xuan, there were a lot of doubts.Although Fu Qi didn't know what he was referring to, he still nodded in response: "I'll give it to you after I sort it out."

"Yeah." Han Chen hung up the phone and looked sideways.

Xu Xing leaned against the door frame, saw him look over, and raised the bag in his hand: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop, it's just Officer Han, I'm going to work soon."

Han Chen slightly hooked his lips, "Do I look like a fool?"

"If you really don't want me to hear it, I won't hear it anyway." Xu Xing closed the door and passed him, staring at the number that the elevator was going up.The little flower in my heart stopped swaying long ago, and stood there quietly, as if reminding me of something.

"If Gao Xuan is arrested, we will all be at ease." She finished softly, entered the elevator, and smiled slightly, "Let's go, Officer Han."

Han Chen raised his eyes and glanced at her, and nodded slightly with a faint smile: "That's right."

He walked into the elevator, and Xu Xing took a step aside.

On the way to the hospital, Xu Xing only glanced at the email notification on his mobile phone, then threw it back into his pocket, and put his elbow on the window.

The oncoming sunlight was a bit dazzling, she squinted her eyes slightly and raised her hand to pull down the baffle, and the phone rang.

Xu Xing thought it was Xiaomeng calling, and looked impatient, took it out to check, but there was nothing. At the same time, Han Chen put on the Bluetooth headset to answer.

She snorted, folded her arms and leaned back on the seat, closing her eyes and meditating.

Half a minute later, the car suddenly changed direction.

Xu Xing turned to look at him inexplicably. Han Chen was taking off his earphones with a stern face.

"Tell your assistant that you won't be going to the hospital." He said, "Someone reported that a relative is missing."

Xu Xing was taken aback.

She heard Han Chen call. If someone disappeared, it means...Gao Xuan committed the crime? !
Fu Qi found the child at the gate of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

After buying siu mai, he ate while walking on the road. Just after crossing the road and going to the police station, he found a child in a wheelchair pushing and shoving a policeman.

From a distance, he heard the child shout: "My mother really had an accident, she didn't come back last night..."

Fu Qi was stunned, walked over quickly, restrained the policeman with one hand, and his face sank: "What's going on?"

The policeman obviously knew Fu Qi and knew that he was usually the most kind. He jumped at this moment, and answered nervously: "This kid came to report in the morning that something happened to his mother. I asked him to report to the local police station. He won't do anything." , but it’s also against the rules here, it’s out of our control!”

The child looked only about ten years old, but his face was mature beyond his age.He leaned forward and grabbed Fu Qi, speaking urgently, "Uncle policeman, help me, something must have happened to my mother, she never stays out at night."

Fu Qi met his gaze, stroked his hand, and said in a calm voice, "You waited all night last night?"

The boy froze for a moment, and then he felt his body lighten, and he was lifted up.

Fu Qi carried him up the steps, turned around, and said in a very calm voice, "Bring the wheelchair in."

The policeman was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized, "Yes."

Only then did Fu Qi walk in, with steady steps and a gentle smile on his lips: "Don't worry, the police will do their best to help you find your mother."

The boy couldn't explain why, he claimed to be an adult, but couldn't help crying at the moment: "I, I went to the police station, and they said they couldn't file a case within 24 hours. I know what they mean. They think my mother's job is too late. It's normal not to go home, but she really won't, she is worried about my illness so she will come back every night no matter how late, I waited for a long time yesterday..."

That feeling of waiting alone and growing panic in my heart... Fu Qi put the boy on the chair, squatted down and looked directly at him.

"I understand." He said softly, "So I'll check it for you now."

There were still tears in the corners of the boy's eyes, and his lips were slightly parted.

After half an hour.

Yao Wan looked at the silent police officers below, and the pressure of the past few days suddenly broke out, "Who can tell me where Fu Qi is?"

Yang Cheng let out a "cough", and said bravely: "He... I saw him in the office just now, he might be in a hurry..."

"Is it because my notification of the meeting time was inaccurate?" Yao Wan sneered, and glanced at Shi Xiaojin who was madly sending messages to Fu Qi: "Or is he too busy with other things to look at his phone?"

Shi Xiaojin... silently put away the phone.

Yao Wan stood still for a while, took a deep breath, and suddenly turned and left the conference room without saying a word.

The others looked at each other, Shi Xiaojin leaned back and wailed, "What kind of life do you live every day?"

"All living beings are suffering." Xu Zhang glanced at the message on the phone that the bank card service fee deduction failed, shook his head, and continued to look through the materials collected in the past few days, "I'm bored, a big living person , how come it disappears without a trace like the world has evaporated?"

No one could answer this question, so everyone gave a wry smile.

When Yao Wan pressed the fire and pushed open the door of Fu Qi's office, there was only a little boy sitting quietly on a chair inside.She frowned slightly: "Who are you? Where's Fu Qi?"

The little boy looked up at her without speaking.

"I'm here."

A light voice suddenly sounded behind him, and Yao Wan turned around.Fu Qi held the computer under his arm, flipping through the documents in his hand.She just laughed: "I won't talk about this kid. If you don't go to the meeting today, are you going to work for your Korean team again?"

"Let me remind you that the case you are in charge of now is the Gaoxuan case, and I am in charge. If there are other things that distract you, then I can only talk to Bureau Du and transfer you out of this case. I don't need subordinates who don't focus on their work."

After listening to her quietly, Fu Qi said, "The Gao Xuan case may have progressed."

Yao Wan raised her eyes suddenly.

Fu Qi ignored him, went straight in, patted the child's head and said with a smile: "I found some clues about your mother, can you give brother some time?"

The boy nodded.

Fu Qi's voice was very gentle: "Other brothers will bring you food later, can you be obedient and eat?"

The boy blinked and nodded again.

He straightened up and looked at Yao Wan: "Let's go, isn't there a meeting?"

Yao Wan stared at Fu Qi passing her figure, slightly lost in thought.She always felt that this Fu Qi was a little different from the others.

When Han Chen arrived, as soon as he came in, someone informed him that everyone was waiting in the conference room, including Bureau Du.

He nodded and led Xu Xing to a place in the corridor where he could rest. "You stay here first, I will come out later."

Xu Xing glanced into the meeting room, his posture didn't look like he would come out later, he frowned and said, "How about I go to work first? If you let me spare a week, at least give me some time to arrange it."

"You're right here." Although Han Chen's tone was light, it was undeniable.

Xu Xing choked and glared at him.

While they were talking, Ju Ju looked outside the conference room, and said in a stern voice, "If Han Chen doesn't come in for the meeting, who are you chatting with?"

No one else dared to speak, Fu Qi said with a smile: "That is the person you asked him to protect, and I had to bring it here in a hurry."

Only then did Bureau Du look back, and coughed lightly.

Yao Wan glanced outside and turned her head uninterested.

Han Chen quickly opened the door and entered, sat in the first place on the left, looked at Fu Qi, and nodded slightly.

Fu Qi stood up and projected the information he found on the screen.

"This woman is Li Jing, 33 years old, a lady from a nightclub. Because of her son's illness, she has never stayed out at night. She didn't come home yesterday, and her son reported her missing. During the information screening process, I found that Li Jing In addition to her, there are other people missing at the workplace." He pressed his finger lightly, and three other pictures appeared on the screen. "The three people's bank cards and other accounts do not have any consumption records, and there are no records of communication devices such as text messages and phone calls. Not counting Li Jing, the shortest time for the missing person is three days, and the longest time is one week."

Just after Gao Xuan was released, Du Ju's expression suddenly became serious.

"The three missing people don't have any relatives or friends in Lincheng. They came here entirely to make a living. Coupled with their occupational reasons, no one filed a case."

As soon as Fu Qi said this, everyone understood what it meant.

They have been looking for missing persons, but they ignore that some people are missing and may not be reported.

Yao Wan frowned, she is the first person in charge, she should have thought of this earlier.

Bureau Du thought for a few seconds, looked at Han Chen, and asked, "What do you think?"

The trust in words is self-evident.

Yao Wan's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked over like everyone else.

Han Chen had been staring at the projection just now, but when he heard the words, he withdrew his gaze, pondered for a moment and said slowly, "It's hard to say whether it's a serial disappearance or a serial murder."

"Whether the victim is alive, whether he is still in this city, and the purpose of the perpetrator, judging from the current information, these are temporarily unknown. But the only thing that is certain is...it has nothing to do with Gao Xuan."
