Black-bellied Movie Emperor's Clever Wife Chapter 9 Part2

Without explaining herself, Xiaoxiao continued to ask, “In which malls did the children go missing?”

Jing Sa put down the bowl and handed her the information on this part. She was familiar with it so well that she could recite it backwards.

“The first child was in Oriental Mall, the second child was in Western Union Department Store, the third child was in Moonlight Department Store … the eighth child is in Spring Mall …”

Xiaoxiao followed her speed and also saw the last page: “The last child was in the Fifth Department Store.”

Jing Sa nodded, “These places are famous shopping malls in our city, densely populated, and these children attended education centers in these malls.”

“What's the approximate duration of the cla.s.s, and what time do they usually end?”

Jing Sa grunted as she ate dumplings, her voice a little m.u.f.fled because of the dumplings in her mouth.

“The cla.s.ses are all…pretty much interest-oriented cla.s.ses…two hours or so, they usually end around four.”

It has become a norm for children to attend extracurricular cla.s.ses and every parent expects their son to become a dragon and their daughter a phoenix. Especially in big cities like S City, such educational centers are often full to the brim, it fits that phrase: "Don't let your child lose at the starting line!”

Reminiscent of Aunt Wu's tale, she asked again, "Did they always go straight home after school?”

Jing Sa shook her head, "After their cla.s.ses are over, it's already rush hour. Parents will take their children to the food court of the mall to sit for a while. You know, kids at this age are voracious and easily get hungry. Parents always buy their kids a snack or something, but once they're done with their purchase, their child is gone.”

The kidnappings are methodical. At least the criminals need a period of time to track and stalk their targets, but they rarely strike in crowded areas. The food court is the most crowded place in the mall. The acreage is not only large, but the counters are also numerous, but it was there that the trail of children were lost.

“Ajing, show me the children's family background.”

The file was immediately presented before her.

After going through them, Xiaoxiao could only sum it up in two words – ordinary family.

This is in line with Jing Sa's point of view.

“You think it's weird too, don't you? It is reasonable to say that all kidnappings should be carried out against the rich, at least the family's a.s.sets are worth millions. But these victimized families belong to the ordinary working cla.s.s. Not to mention their family fortune, the ransom demanded was also not much, and the highest one is only 200,000! The kidnapper must be deranged!"

The fact that the kidnapper didn't go after the rich and instead preyed on the average cla.s.s was completely at odds with the risks that came with carrying out the kidnapping.

Xiaoxiao's face remained calm and her eyes are very clear, "If he's not deranged, then he's a pervert!"

“Pervert?” Jing Sa was furious, “He's not just a pervert! Look at how he tortured the children, he's an animal!”

Xiaoxiao turned a blind eye to her anger and waited until she had cursed enough before inserting slowly, “I've got a grip about the case pretty much, if you don't have anything to add, you can go back!”

“But I want to stay and help you!”

Now, it's a race against the clock, and there's no time to lose.

“I prefer to be alone and quietly go over my a.s.sumptions!”

Thinking back to her earlier behavior of cursing out in anger, Jing Sa choked out, “Okay! Got it! So, do you want to come with me to the crime scene tomorrow?”

In addition to written reports, site investigation is also an important part of the process.

Xiaoxiao refused outright, “No need!”

“You're not going to the scene? Just read this information?”

Jing Sa doesn't think it's productive. The task force has read this pile of information hundreds of times!

“I have my own way, and I don't answer to anyone!” She picked up Jing Sa's briefcase and windbreaker and pushed her out. 

Jing Sa was pushed straight out the door.

Xiaoxiao hid behind the door, poked her head out and warned, “Remember, don't let any third person know that I'm involved in this case.”
