Chapter 233 Unlock new characters
After returning to the county town, Jiang Baige and Song Siwen called home first.
In fact, they contacted their parents every day, but because Song Siwen didn't have her own mobile phone with her, she had to use Jiang Baige's mobile phone to make calls, so her parents were always a little worried.
This time, as always, I advised her to go home early.
Song Siwen was finally able to give in and said that he would be back soon.
Jiang Baige went to take a shower first - the past few days had been like an adventure, with no way to take a shower and constant sweating, which made her smell a bit unbearable.
She looked at her hair which looked like it was covered in grease and for the first time she felt that her long hair was a nuisance.
When Jiang Baige finished washing, Song Siwen just finished her phone call. The two exchanged blow dryers, and Jiang Baige almost fell asleep after blowing her hair.
But after falling asleep, familiar faces and scary scenes would appear in her dreams from time to time, waking her up from her sleep again and again.
After a whole night, I didn't sleep well.
This is really a torture for her, who has always had good sleep quality.
Finally made it to the next morning...
Jiang Baige hesitated: "Do you think we should go to Aimin Hotel?"
"Absolutely not."
They had already contacted Ge Yang and Quan Gang. These two men were so loyal that they ran away the day after returning from Wangnan Village.
Perhaps he knew he was in the wrong and insisted that it was because Quan Gang accidentally sprained his foot.
But they were too lazy to care about these things. They were more concerned about whether they had returned to the Ai Min Hotel.
But unfortunately, they didn't.
In Ge Yang's words, that hotel was weird - an overly silent front desk clerk, an overly enthusiastic manager, and there was also an incident where a Jiang Baige went missing, which was a big deal at the time. There were other hotels in the county, so they didn't want to go through that.
That's why Jiang Baige wanted to go back and take a look.
She wondered if the "silent receptionist" was still there.
When they were in Wangnan Village, they sent text messages to Zhuang Yao, but she never replied. Although Jiang Baige knew that it might be because she was under surveillance and it was inconvenient, she was still worried that something might have happened to her.
Song Siwen comforted her: "We have to trust Senior Sister. Besides, now we are just one step away..."
The last step is that as long as they can contact the police and let the police intervene in this matter, not only can the criminals be punished, but it will also be more likely to rescue Xiaomi, Shu Xiu, Zhuang Yao, and even Aunt An.
They carefully dialed the number with Shu Xiu's cell phone -
The call was connected, and after more than ten seconds, the other party answered the call.
"Hello, hello, who is this?"
It was a female voice. She didn't introduce herself and didn't seem to know the owner of the phone number.
"Hello, we are friends of Sister Shu Xiu... She asked us to call you. May I ask who you are?"
There was a pause of a few seconds.
A few seconds seemed like centuries.
"My name is Ji Lu. You guys go to the police station now... oh no, the police substation. I'm closer to the police station. I'll come find you right away."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Baige and Song Siwen went straight to the police station.
This meeting place made them feel safe - because if the police station was "taken over", they would really have nowhere to escape.
They entered the police station and said they had an appointment with Officer Ji Lu.
The police officers who received the guests seemed to have never heard of Ji Lu's name. They suddenly had an idea and thought of Shu Xiu's police officer ID.
“We found this.”
When the other party saw Shu Xiu's police officer ID, he immediately became nervous. He asked them to wait in the lobby and called a few people over.
I could faintly hear them saying:
"It's Shu Xiu's police ID..."
"Hasn't she been missing for a long time?"
"These two girls seem to be from other places. How did they find this certificate--"
"Shu Xiu... isn't anything going to happen to her, right?"
At this time, a woman with short, neat hair came running in from the outside, and as soon as she stepped into the door, she shouted -
"Where are Shu Xiu's friends?"
Jiang Baige waved her hand hastily and walked over: "Is it...Officer Ji Lu?"
Ji Lu took out his police ID from his pocket and showed it to them. He also saw the ID in their hands: "Colleague?"
After saying that, he shook his head: "So young..."
Jiang Baige hurriedly shook her hand: "No, no, no, this belongs to Sister Shu Xiu."
The group of people who were talking about Shu Xiu's police officer ID card reappearing in the world also came over at this time.
Some of them recognized Ji Lu and greeted her.
"Do you know these two girls? Where did Shu Xiu go? Can you let them tell us?"
Ji Lu nodded and looked at Jiang Baige and the others: "Did Ah Xiu ask you to come?"
"Yes."
Jiang Baige couldn't wait for the questions and answers, so she just said, "She is now in Wangnan Village, and she is in great danger. Later we met in Wangnan Village, and she helped us escape. She asked us to give you the evidence she had taken over the past six months, and we hope you can open a case for investigation and rescue them as soon as possible."
"More than half a year..." Ji Lu's eyes were serious, "Has she been in Wangnan Village for more than half a year?"
Jiang Baige gave her an affirmative answer and prepared to take Shu Xiu's cell phone out of her bag and give it to her.
But Ji Lu stopped him: "Don't worry, come to my office first."
After that, she turned to the police officer who had just spoken to her and said, "Xiao Yang, do you have a vacant office here? Let me borrow it. I want to have a good chat with them."
"no problem."
Soon they followed Ji Lu to an empty office.
It turned out that unlike Shu Xiu, the household registration police officer at the police station, Ji Lu was a criminal police officer at the county bureau and had the authority to investigate criminal cases.
The two were classmates in the police academy. Although they took different jobs after graduation, they still kept in touch.
So when Shu Xiu found out something was wrong in Wangnan Village, she immediately told Ji Lu.
Unfortunately, because there was no clear victim to report the crime, they were unable to formally file a case.
But Ji Lu promised Shu Xiu that he would go to Wangnan Village after she finished the case at hand.
The problem is that there is no such thing as “finished” work.
When Ji Lu had some free time, he wanted to ask Shu Xiu to go to Wangnan Village in the name of a "population census", but then he learned that Shu Xiu was missing!
Her intuition told her that Shuxiu’s matter must be related to Wangnan Village.
She went there specially for this purpose, but did not find Shu Xiu.
I couldn’t get through to Shu Xiu on the phone either, it was as if she had disappeared from the face of the earth.
Later, during summer vacation, the county bureau received a notice to jointly investigate an case saying that a girl from another place had disappeared in Fengshui County.
She vaguely realized that this matter might be related to Wangnan Village, so she applied to join the investigation team...but after finding the Ai Min Hotel, the clues were cut off.
The matter was left on hold.
"Why did you go there? Were you captured... or..."
"We went there by ourselves." Jiang Baige sighed, "Because our senior's friend was the girl who disappeared during the summer vacation. And now, our senior is also missing."
