Naturally, this phone call from Fang Xiao's boyfriend had the same ending as before. All of Fang Xiao's friends said that Fang Xiao was not at his place.

After learning this answer, Fang Xiao's boyfriend panicked and immediately ran to Fang Xiao's company to find her. Only when he arrived at Fang Xiao's company did his boyfriend find out that Fang Xiao had not come to the company since December 18th.

class! It wasn’t until December 20 that he called the company to ask for leave, saying that he was not feeling well! Originally, the company leader wanted to reprimand Fang Xiao for working for two days without any reason. He didn’t know to tell the company earlier, but the other party

Hearing Fang Xiao's voice was very haggard, and there was a strong sense of panic in his tone. He thought that Fang knew that he was seriously ill, so he was so frightened, so he didn't have the nerve to blame Fang Xiao, and happily gave Fang Xiao a few days off.

Fang Xiao went to the hospital for a checkup.

After Fang Xiao's company received this reply, her boyfriend called Fang Xiao's home again and found that Fang Xiao did not come home either.

I was worried that my girlfriend was sick, so I searched for her to no avail.

Desperate, Fang Xiao's boyfriend finally chose to report the crime to the police, hoping that the police could help find his girlfriend.

The police can answer countless trivial calls this day, asking for help in various disputes, people crying on the side of the road after losing their love, people sleeping on the side of the road while drunk, people vomiting all over the taxi in a taxi without paying...

Emotional disputes like Fang Xiao's boyfriend have long been commonplace.

Therefore, the police officers who received the case did not take it seriously, and simply assumed that one of the two was quarreling and one of them was deliberately trying to offend the other. As the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to deal with family affairs, and emotional disputes do not fall into the category of crime. The police did not have a good solution, and most of them

Mainly to advise.

After the police comforted Xiao's boyfriend, he gradually relaxed his nervous mood. At the same time, he realized his mistake and decided to have a good communication after finding his girlfriend.

Fang Xiao's boyfriend followed the police's advice and went home to wait patiently for Fang Xiao to calm down and return home, but there was no trace of Fang Xiao even after waiting and waiting.

Another three days passed in my anxiety!

Fang Xiao's relatives and friends couldn't sit still. Fang Xiao's boyfriend had called them one by one before. Now everyone, including Fang Xiao's parents, called to ask whether they had reconciled and whether Fang Xiao had gone home.

The answer naturally disappointed everyone, Fang Xiao was not there! After receiving the news, Fang Xiao's parents rushed from their hometown to Jishui overnight, and accompanied by Fang Xiao's boyfriend, went to the police station to report the crime again.

Only then did the police station take it seriously and open an investigation.

I originally thought it was an ordinary disappearance case, but after investigation, I found that it was not that simple. After many investigations, the police found only two clues. The first one was the surveillance footage of Fang Xiao leaving the community after an argument with her boyfriend on the night of the 17th.

, in the picture, Fang Xiao walked a few steps in a panic, then stopped and looked around. When he arrived at the gate of the community, Fang Xiao made a phone call, and his panicked face showed a moment of joy. Then Fang Xiao left the community and disappeared from the surveillance camera.

within the screen.

When they investigated the surveillance at the next intersection, they were surprised to find that there was no figure of Fang Xiao at all. There were only two roads leading to the outside world from the community. Then the police checked the surveillance in the other direction and still found no figure of Fang Xiao.

Later, the police thought that Fang Xiao was hiding near her home, and began to check the situation of people in the surrounding communities one by one, but they also could not find Fang Xiao.

The second piece of information the police have is the phone call Fang Xiao made on December 20th.

The call was made by Fang Xiao's own mobile phone. Later, it was found through technical positioning that Fang Xiao's specific location could not be determined. The positioning could only narrow the range to Jishui. It was confirmed that Fang Xiao had not left Jishui, but further positioning revealed that

A blank!

The police station felt that there was something wrong with this case, so they reported it to our Criminal Investigation Division. By this time, it was January 5th.

This time happened to be the time when Yan Zheng was arrested. Shen Pei and the others focused all their attention on Shi Xingyan's case, and Fang Xiao's disappearance case was shelved once again.

It wasn't until a week later that Shi Xingyan's case reached a deadlock that everyone freed up energy to take care of other cases.

At this time, the police received seven or eight similar disappearance cases one after another.

All missing persons have one thing in common. They seem to have suddenly disappeared from the world. Their last missing place cannot be found, and surveillance cameras cannot find their traces.

In addition, Yan Zheng could not be contacted, so Shen Pei thought that Yan Zheng had also been killed, so he kept calling him every day!

The police once suspected that this was Gui Che committing another crime. Only Shen Pei, who knew the truth, understood that this was not Gui Che committing a crime because she heard Yan Zheng mention that Gui Che had already been subdued by Yan Zheng!

As time went by and Yan Zheng was unable to be contacted, Shen Pei began to waver in her heart, and her inner thoughts gradually moved closer to those of her colleagues. She began to wonder if Yan Zheng, the murderer of the ghost car, had been killed, and began to make trouble again.

This tragic idea has always been with Shen Pei. A month later, Yan Zheng has not yet appeared, and seven more people have been missing.

Shen Pei desperately thought that Yan Zheng had also been killed, but there was still a trace of fantasy in her heart. With Yan Zheng's ability, he might just be trapped somewhere, not dead yet, and in need of outside help.

Therefore, Shen Pei issued a missing person notice for Yan Zheng, hoping to find clues about Yan Zheng from the public and solve this series of bizarre disappearances.

Since there was no photo of Yan Zheng, Shen Pei retrieved Yan Zheng's ID card photo from the database and found the missing person notice that Yan Zheng saw just now.

After listening to Shen Pei's story, Yan Zheng felt even more troubled.

You'er is a creature born from the mirage, the master of mirages. By analogy, the Penglai demon will definitely also have some related abilities.

Yan Zheng, who has experienced it, knows how difficult it is to control the power of dreams.

If the Penglai demon that sneaked into Jishui used dreams to cause this series of disappearances, Yan Zheng would not be surprised at all that those people disappeared without a trace.

The problem is that Yan Zheng doesn't have much more information than Shen Pei and others. He only has an ambiguous statement from Zhen. The other party has great malice towards human beings and will not stop when they arrive in Jishui!

There was no way to deduce more information from this sentence. He could only confirm that the other party was in Jishui, and the mysteriously missing person was related to the Penglai demon.

As for the modus operandi and clues... Yan Zheng was also in the dark.

Although Yan Zheng could not deduce anything more from Shen Pei's description of Fang Xiao's disappearance, he came up with a rough idea.

The other party created an illusion at the entrance of Fang Xiao's community. Fang Xiao entered the illusion after leaving the community. This is why the police could not find Fang Xiao's surveillance footage at the next intersection.

It's because after Fang Xiao left the community, he directly entered the dream realm...
