The missing person, the strange corpse, the seal from the police station, the things behind this series of things can form a complete chain. After learning about this, Lan Yushu hurriedly left the hotel.
"You seem to have attracted a good helping hand." Xiao Shifan said.
"I don't know yet how effective it will be... By the way, there will be a rally tomorrow and many people may attend. Do you want to come?"
"It should be possible." Xiao Shifan glanced at Ye Fei.
"I'll follow you! You can never be alone again! Don't go exploring in places that look strange at first glance - something will happen!" Ye Fei shouted nervously, "But what happened to that gathering? Do you know the details?"
"It was organized by people I know." Lu Ning ignored his attitude and explained, then extended her hand to Xiao Shifan, "I think you brought something else?"
Xiao Shifan nodded, took out a mobile hard drive from his pocket and put it in Lu Ning's hand: "I haven't had time to look at it, but the backup has been made. Do you want to hear what happened last night? It's quite strange, although Ye Fei was being chased all the time, but the other party didn't make a move...it was the same until we rescued him."
"We have confirmed that there is a problem there. There are too many possible reasons why you can escape. There is no need to speculate now." Lu Ning returned to the room with the mobile hard drive and started the computer. Xiao Shifan and Ye Fei also walked in, and the three of them looked at the analysis and comparison of the videos.
Among the 136 missing persons, 119 have appeared on the video. This ratio is high enough to confirm that there is some connection between the two. These people are evenly distributed in the Frost Day Celebrations over the years. Their identities are different. The only thing they have in common is that they are visitors from out of town.
And if Lu Ning thought correctly, the bodies of these people should have appeared at some time later and were "recovered" secretly. It's just that this vent is really tightly sealed——
"Xiao Shifan, when you were taken to the police station that day, how were you questioned?"
"Huh? They said this case is too bizarre and the evidence is not enough. They hope that we will cooperate with the investigation and not tell others about it until the result comes out-"
"So those witnesses also disappeared later? No - wait, the previous disappearance led to the subsequent disappearance. Why didn't the police find such a chain? And they are all tourists from out of town?"
"You still have to ask? They must have discovered it! They are also in the same group with those guys! This is a family of officials and bandits!" Ye Fei held his head and shouted, "Then what should we do? Now that Old Song is dead, The three of us will definitely 'disappear' one day!"
"Calm down." Xiao Shifan held down the agitated Ye Fei, and it took him a while to calm down.
"At least we will be fine in the near future. There are also our people in the police station. If anything goes wrong, they will contact us." Lu Ning picked up the phone. She just felt the phone vibrate. There should be a message sent.
[Shen Xinyue: Something unexpected happened... It is not impossible that the enemy may come from all over the city, but we definitely have corresponding means. There will be a meeting at my place tomorrow, and there should be a lot of crows coming by then. It will be in the third conference room on the fourth floor of the Danma Daily Building at ten o'clock in the morning. 】
Is she really the one in charge of this rally?
Lu Ning forwarded the information to Xiao Shifan and Ye Fei. After contacting Yuan Xi, the four of them quickly decided to go together tomorrow.
After Xiao and Ye left, Lu Ning began to learn the four Feng Shui techniques left by Lan Yushu. In fact, this is quite difficult for a beginner. At least this day, she has not been able to master any of them.
July 12th has finally arrived.
The Danma Daily Building, with a total of 18 floors, is also an extremely tall building in the city center. After the four people registered visitor information at the door, they took the elevator with their temporary passes.
Fourth floor.
"What time is it now?" Xiao Shifan turned around and asked.
"Nine thirty, we came a little early..."
"But someone should be here too."
Lu Ning sent a message to Shen Xinyue and received a reply soon. When the four of them found Conference Room No. 3, they happened to see her coming from another corner.
"You guys are really early, but..." Shen Xinyue took out her card and opened the door of the conference room. Inside was a U-star long table. The chairs around it were arranged slightly unevenly, and the decorations on the shelves next to it were a bit uneven. Same thing.
"The celebrity delegation has just left, and now it is available for use. But you'd better wait a moment. I don't know how many people there will be today."
Shen Xinyue said.
"They also used this place?"
"Let's use it as a lounge, wait..." Shen Xinyue reached out and took out a delicate small box from the jewelry shelf, opened it after flipping it twice, and there was a letter lying inside.
[To attendees:
I am Shu Xingruo, the organizer of this meeting. Unfortunately, I cannot attend due to identity issues. I hope that you can help me get out of my current predicament at the next meeting. In addition, although I was unable to attend, I asked another person to represent the meeting to prevent everyone from suspecting each other. The agent's name is Cheng Wuling, and she will definitely not disappoint you. 】
The letter was very short and the handwriting was quite hasty. It seemed that Shu Xingruo had spent a lot of effort to find an opportunity to write the letter.
"Cheng Wuling? Who is this? Do you know him?" Shen Xinyue pinched Xin and asked doubtfully, "I thought it was Han Yin's agent. They didn't notify him before... Is this person trustworthy?"
"I know it, but...I'm not sure."
Lu Ning said this with a trace of doubt.
Soon, more people came to the conference room.
Two police officers, Lu Bingying and Shi Yi, greeted Lu Ning after seeing her.
A young woman with a strong cultural temperament, who called herself Bai Meng, found a corner and sat quietly after entering the room.
A fashionably dressed young man and a girl in black, named Luo Lin and Sun Mozhu, met downstairs and came up together.
Han Yin, who looked meticulous, also entered the room and introduced himself to everyone.
Finally, when the time was about to reach ten o'clock, the door opened again and two girls walked in.
Cheng Wuling was slightly different from the previous impression. Her face was a little tired, her long hair was tied into a ponytail, and she held a large folder in her right hand. Her body was straight. After entering the door, she immediately took a step sideways, revealing her behind. girl.
The girl in a dress looked a little panicked when she saw so many people, and stammered: "I...my name is Zhao Yinran, and I am the pursuer this time. Hello everyone."
"Oh? So is that Cheng Wuling over there?" Shen Xinyue asked.
"It seems that Shu Xingruo has informed you, that's good." Cheng Wuling walked to the front of the conference room unceremoniously, put the folder on the small table next to him, clapped his hands gently, "My name It is Cheng Wuling who has been entrusted to take charge of this meeting. We are all tourists from the distribution center, so there is no need to hide this aspect. There are two goals for this meeting. The first is to summarize and integrate the information in everyone's hands. , and the second is to invite interested people to participate in the next rescue operation for Shu Xingruo."
"Wait a minute." Policeman Shi Yi raised his hand to stop Cheng Wuling's words, "Although it may not sound good... but everyone has things they don't want to say. I don't think it is that easy to integrate and summarize, right? As for saving people... It sounds dangerous."
"Yes, that's why I came here." Cheng Wuling nodded to Shi Yi, "I know your concerns very well, so it doesn't matter, you just need to follow the progress of the meeting and participate in the discussion. There are no secrets or anything like that. You can keep it a secret, because it has nothing to do with our main plot this time."
"What did you say?" Ye Fei blurted out.
"At the beginning, I would like to introduce myself first. I am Cheng Wuling, and I am a trainee researcher at the Danma Institute of Life Sciences. My father, mother, and grandfather all worked in the institute, so The probability of me becoming a regular employee in the future is very high, and my authority is higher than I imagined."
Everyone had introduced themselves before, but no one directly reported their background like Cheng Wuling.
"Both my grandfather and father have passed away due to the same muscular dystrophy disease. To investigate this reason, I came here. My identity and background are roughly as follows. On the other hand, my camp for this mission is - —The Hidden Man.”
Lu Ning's heart skipped a beat, and her hands under the table clenched slightly.
"The Hidden Man? I've never heard of this." Shen Xinyue frowned, "About the Secret Man, why are you not in the same camp as us..."
"Faction has nothing to do with whether you are hostile or not."
Cheng Wuling interrupted Shen Xinyue's words forcefully in a tone that left no room for doubt.
"Unlike you, I know very well who my 'enemy' is. The mission of the Hidden Man's camp is to protect his secrets from others, complete at least two personal goals, and kill all the remaining Hidden Man."
"All dead!?"
This time almost everyone looked surprised.
"That's right, my enemies are people from the same camp. If you are not secretive people, at least I will not regard you as enemies for now. And whether there is hostility among you, please resolve it yourself." Cheng Wuling picked up the folder and checked it out. The first document was pulled out.
"In the following time, I will organize the intelligence collected these days according to my ideas. You can put forward your opinions at any time. I will give suggestions based on your stories. There are no mandatory requirements. If you feel You can remain silent if you reveal any information. Or, those who feel they don’t need this can leave."
Having said this, Cheng Wuling paused and looked around. Although everyone has different looks on their faces, it is certain that no one will choose to leave at this point in time.
"Then let's begin."
Cheng Wuling announced this in his usual calm tone.
