Chapter 589 - Too Many Questions (2/2)
Xiao Luo found it unbelievable. This young man, who looked like a newbie who had just graduated from the police academy, and he was paired with an old chain smoker who smoked cigarettes like it was air—how could the two of them deter gang activities?
Kimura Akino said, “There are no more gangs in Dongjing these days.”
“That’s too presumptuous, don’t you think? ‘There is a right if there is a wrong. Right cannot exist without wrong.’ These two go hand in hand, so I can’t accept it when you say Dongjing does not have any more powerful groups in the underworld,” Xiao Luo responded.
Kimura Akino smiled but looked a little strained. “Mr. Xiao Han is right, but we don’t have a lot of gangs these days. And even if we do, they scatter as soon as they see Sergeant Miyazaki Ronjin. Sergeant Ronjin might not have a great reputation in the department, but he’s the scariest person known to the gangsters. He’s their nemesis.”
“I see. Send me the details of the five cases.”
Xiao Luo was growing impatient. The Dongjing Police had handed the missing person case to an old police officer who had become sloppy–a person who was about to retire. It seemed that they had adopted a blatantly nonchalant attitude toward this case. They probably thought it would be great if they managed to solve it, but it would not be much of a setback if they could not. They did not seem to care much about the Hua nationals who had gone missing. As a representative of the Hua Nation Police, he would take issue with this matter tomorrow. Of course, aside from that, he could not act in a way that would cause too much disruption. His primary mission this time was to locate Lady Poison—the other missing persons were secondary.
“Sure, Mr. Xiao Han!” Kimura Akino nodded.
…
…
Kimura Akino handed a copy of the files over to Xiao Luo, and then he took his leave. Xiao Luo seemed to have memorized the contents of the file after taking just one look at it. There were five missing people in total, three females and two males, and they had all been abducted in a black SUV with no car license plate in the dead of night.
He hacked into the Dongjing Police security system to access the surveillance clip of Lady Poison Fu Yiren when she was at Tokyo Tower.
It was midnight when it happened. Fu Yiren had gone to Tokyo Tower alone and was looking up at the structure. Not long afterward, some people suddenly appeared. They wore tightly fitted black hoods over their heads, with only their eyes and noses visible. They rushed toward Fu Yiren. Before she could retaliate in any way, she was knocked out and carried away over that person’s shoulder.
All sorts of questions ran through Xiao Luo’s mind after he saw the clip. Fu Yiren was not incompetent in any way. So why was it that she was so effortlessly subdued without making any effort to retaliate? Besides, her entire body was hypertoxic, and the ordinary person could hardly touch her at all. Why was it that the person on the screen did not seem the least affected by the toxins?
He was desperate to find clues, and he immediately retrieved footage from the security cameras in the vicinity. He froze when he saw the person with the hood carry Fu Yiren into a vehicle.
A black SUV with no car license plate!
The five Hua nationals who had been abducted had also been taken in the same vehicle. Xiao Luo carefully compared the two black SUVs and concluded that it was one and the same. The wheels, model, and scratch marks at the front of the car were all a match—there was no doubt about it, this was the same SUV.
Xiao Luo furrowed his brows. The five Hua nationals were one thing, but Fu Yiren was not in the same classification as them. Why had she been targeted?
Was this the Asou family’s doing?
But no expert in the Asou family would have been capable of subduing Fu Yiren this easily!
So, what kind of person was this? Was he from another clan? If it was another family clan, then why did they go after the civilians? Was this a kidnapping that targeted Hua nationals?
He had too many questions, but he found no leads no matter how hard he tried.
