In addition to the dead Black Wolf, there were Charles, Scorpion, Lucifer,
Viper, and the others. It was obvious that this was a full operational team. Logically speaking, such a situation would not happen. After all, for so many years, this place had been called a forbidden area for mercenaries.
With the boundary stone as a boundary, no one dared to easily step through this place. However, now that this group of mercenaries actually dared to take such a risk, it must mean that they had a greater goal.
So far, the police had already figured out the relationship between Pig Head Rong and the mercenaries. They were both affiliated with a mysterious research institute overseas.
Golden foil was their main goal. However, the development of the situation gradually exceeded everyone’s expectations. They had clearly obtained the golden foil. So why didn’t they leave? They even kidnapped someone.
In the end, who killed Pig Head Rong’s tomb raiding gang and even destroyed Black Wolf? What role did Su Yun play in this? Why had everyone been looking for him? What secret did he know? Was it the secret behind the golden foil?
These questions were written on the whiteboard in the conference room, constantly reminding the police officers of the task force to maintain a clear train of thought. It was already the third day of the livestream announcement.
There was still no progress on Su Yun, and Su Yun had not appeared.
“Will he show up today?”
Now, the police were confused. The only breakthrough was Xu Jiajia, who was recuperating in the hospital. A few days ago, Commander Xu had personally come to visit his daughter, so it was not convenient for the police to ask about anything at this time.
Now that Commander Xu had returned to the military district and it was the third day of Su Yun’s announcement, there was no progress. Hence, Chen Ye immediately ordered Zhang Shuhong to continue to the hospital and obtain more useful information from Xu Jiajia.
This was the only direction they could investigate at the moment. Other than that, the investigators of the task force were confused.
Zhang Shuhong immediately rushed to the hospital with her disciple, Xiao Li. Along the way, she kept instructing Xiao Li to try his best to guide Xu Jiajia and tell him more useful information. Even now, Zhang Shuhong was still clinging to her intuition as an old criminal police officer.
Xu Jiajia had always been repulsed by questions. Logically speaking, this shouldn’t have happened.
Xu Jiajia was a victim. She should have tried her best to help the police. This meant that Xu Jiajia knew something. Or rather, she wanted to protect him or hide something.
After arriving at the hospital, Zhang Shuhong quickly brought Xiao Li to Xu Jiajia’s ward. After this period of recuperation, the hospital had already given the relevant report. Xu Jiajia was already fine. The reason why Xu Jiajia was not discharged was because the police wanted to temporarily restrict her freedom and get more clues from her.
After all, this was Commander Xu’s daughter. They naturally had to be more subtle in their attitude. Otherwise, if they brought Xu Jiajia to the interrogation room today and locked her up for 24 hours, Commander Xu’s men would arrive tomorrow.
At least for the time being, they had no reason to detain Xu Jiajia, although the law stipulated that they could do so within 24 hours if they cooperated with the police. However, anyone knew that Commander Xu would definitely not think that way. Therefore, the best way was to leave her in the hospital for the time being.
“Miss Xu, are you there? We still want to ask you some questions…” As Xiao Li spoke, he knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time.
Was she asleep? Xiao Li gently pushed open the door of the ward, but in the next second, he was stunned on the spot. The bed was empty, and Xu Jiajia was nowhere to be seen.
“What’s going on?” Zhang Shuhong pushed Xiao Li away and strode into the house. She even searched the toilet, but she did not find Xu Jiajia. Immediately after, Zhang Shuhong quickly walked to the bed and reached out to touch it. She realized that it was no longer warm, which meant that Xu Jiajia had disappeared for a long time. “Nurse, nurse!” This caught Zhang Shuhong off guard. She quickly found a nurse in this ward and pointed at the bed. “Where did she go?”
Looking at the empty bed, the nurse was also confused. “I came to do a ward round an hour ago. She was still here. Why did she suddenly disappear?”
“Did she leave? Didn’t you see her?”
Faced with Zhang Shuhong’s question, the nurse shook her head repeatedly. “That’s impossible. Outside this ward is the nurses’ station. There are people 24 hours a day. Xu Jiajia is the target of your police’s attention. Everyone knows her. If she leaves here, someone will definitely see her.”
Zhang Shuhong anxiously led the young police officer and followed the nurse to retrieve the surveillance footage. They had to figure out how Xu Jiajia left.
Although the window of the ward was open, this was the sixth floor. No matter how she thought about it, it was impossible for a girl to climb out of the window on the sixth floor.
Then, the various surveillance cameras in the hospital must have a way to capture Xu Jiajia’s figure. However, after watching the surveillance footage for a long time, Zhang Shuhong and Xiao Li became more and more confused.
Whether it was the corridor surveillance cameras or the surveillance cameras at the door, they did not catch Xu Jiajia.
Xu Jiajia had disappeared from the face of the earth..
