Chapter 268: Chapter 268 The Case of the Missing Girl

Fifty high-quality virgins, this was not an easy task for the United Hearts Gang, especially now. After all, due to the battles between the two gangs, they were under close police surveillance, and this was Yanjing, the capital of Huaxia. The disappearance of fifty young girls in a short time would definitely cause an uproar.

"But now we have no other choice. I can only risk everything!" Lei Lingfeng’s eyes were flashing with madness.

The night deepened, and a girl who had just finished a party was walking on the street, swiping WeChat with her friend, and uploading the lively scenes from the party to her Moments.

Click-clack, click-clack, the sound of high heels was so crisp in the quiet night.

Suddenly, a streetlight flickered, and the entire street plunged into darkness. Only the girl’s phone emitted a faint glow.

"What the hell!" The girl frowned and said, "The streetlights are broken during the holiday season. How unlucky is that? It must be shoddy work from the construction company, hmph, I’m going to complain tomorrow!"

But the girl didn’t notice that behind her, a shadow had appeared silently. The shadow quickly approached, a towel in hand covering the girl’s mouth and nose. The girl struggled for a moment but was soon overpowered by the drug on the towel.

The same scene played out in other dim alleys across Yanjing.

Soon, the disappearance of numerous girls alarmed the Yanjing police force.

"How is the situation now?" Bai Feifei appeared in the police station with a solemn face.

"The situation is not optimistic!" One of the officials said, "Captain Bai, we’ve received over thirty emergency calls. The reported cases are startlingly similar, all involving young women disappearing on their way from parties."

"More than thirty cases?" Bai Feifei said with a hint of shock.

The official gave a wry smile and said, "Yes, normally we wouldn’t file cases within twenty-four hours, but such a large number of calls at once means the situation is extremely serious."

Bai Feifei nodded, "This isn’t an ordinary case. The higher-ups have assigned it to our Criminal Police Team. Take all your materials and join us for a meeting to discuss the case."

Ten minutes later, the meeting room was filled with criminal police. Bai Feifei, as the deputy captain of the Criminal Police Team and the primary person in charge of this case.

"Everyone should be aware of the case now. Up to this point, we’ve received thirty-six emergency calls. Unless someone is making false reports, it means that a large-scale abduction of young girls has occurred in Yanjing City!" said a police officer who was well informed of the case.

Bai Feifei put down the case file, a serious expression crossing her face: "I just reviewed the locations of these thirty-six incidents; they all occurred on remote streets and alleys, with little surveillance around, and even the few cameras that were there malfunctioned along with the streetlights at the time of the incidents. It is clear that this is the work of a well-trained kidnapping gang! And they are very familiar with Yanjing’s geography!"

"Captain Bai, what do you imply?" the other criminal police officers leaned in with anticipation.

Bai Feifei nodded, "Exactly, I suspect this is the handiwork of Yanjing’s underworld forces. These cases have many things in common, and we can basically attribute them to a single chain of serial crimes. The scope of the case is huge, and without a strong and familiar knowledge of Yanjing, it would be impossible to abduct so many girls in such a short time. The only ones who fit these criteria are Yanjing’s underworld forces!"

Everyone present nodded in agreement; Bai Feifei’s assessment was spot on. The case could likely be linked to the underworld forces, but exactly which power was behind it was a mystery to those present.

"Among the active underworld forces in Yanjing are Flame Hall, the United Hearts Gang, and other smaller groups. The only ones capable of committing this crime so silently, aside from Flame Hall, are the United Hearts Gang. Those small groups simply don’t have the capabilities or the audacity!" one of the criminal police officers said gravely.

Bai Feifei frowned. With the Yanjing underworld bubbling with strife, intervening in their conflicts wasn’t a good choice at this moment, but the severity of the case couldn’t afford delay. Every second wasted meant more danger for the missing girls!

"What evidence have we found at the scene?" Bai Feifei looked up and asked.

The officer said with a helpless smile, "So far, no evidence at all, it’s as if those girls vanished into thin air!"

"Impossible!" Bai Feifei stated firmly, "As long as it’s a crime scene, it’s impossible not to leave any evidence. If we can’t find anything, it only means we aren’t looking hard enough. Intensify the search, don’t overlook any details!"

"Yes, Captain Bai, I’ll give the instructions right away!"

Bai Feifei continued, "Our suspects are Flame Hall and the United Hearts Gang. Both gangs are strong and currently engaged in a turf war. Without solid proof, we can’t move against them rashly. Everyone understands this point, right? So, we must find evidence within twenty-four hours and rescue the missing girls! Do we understand?"

"Understood!"

"Good, now listen to my orders. Teams One and Two, expand the surveillance search based on the last known locations of the missing girls, especially keeping an eye on any suspicious vehicles. Teams Three and Four, take search dogs and the missing persons’ belongings to the disappearance sites for another thorough examination; we must find clues! Team Five, continuously trace the missing persons’ mobile signals and report immediately if a signal appears! Teams Six and Seven, monitor the United Hearts Gang and Flame Hall for unusual movements tonight, and if necessary, make contact with informants! Team Eight, go to the traffic police force and communicate with their staff, see if anyone has noticed anything unusual tonight! The rest of the personnel, be ready to act at any moment once we have news!"

At that moment, another police officer entered: "It’s bad, we’ve just received a dozen more emergency calls. The number of missing girls has now exceeded fifty!"

Hisss! Over fifty girls, what could they be planning with so many missing girls!

A foreboding feeling rose in Bai Feifei’s heart. She exhaled and said firmly, "Proceed as arranged, everyone move out now!"

As everyone scattered to their tasks, Bai Feifei’s face showed a brief struggle before she dialed Ling Feng’s number: "Ling Feng, I have something to ask you!"
