"Meow……"

A kitten's cry came from the grass on the roadside, and the girl carrying a schoolbag suspected that she had heard it wrong.

Pets have basically left people's lives since entering the shelter era. After all, people can't even feed themselves, so why do they still have the energy to feed small animals?

I heard that many people in the middle and upper classes keep pets. In some promotional videos, some wealthy people in private shelters even have their own private zoos.

But in the lower levels of the official shelter, even if someone did bring animals in, they would have long since become food and turned into dung.

The girl withdrew her eyes from the grass on the side of the road, and just as she lifted her feet to leave, the sudden meow of a cat made the expression on her face turn into one of surprise!

You can tell it's a kitten's cry.

The girl had cats and dogs at home before. She liked small pets very much. If she could raise a cat, maybe it would be the best gift God could give her. After all, her birthday was coming soon.

She turned around and walked toward the grass, squatted down, stared into the depths of the grass, and made a "mimimi" sound in her mouth, hoping to find where the kitten was.

There is also a park on the ground floor. In a sense, the park is a place where people at the bottom use to relieve their mental fatigue.

In fact, people don't love nature as much as they think. People like to be in nature and just want to escape from work and life.

Just like a person chooses a partner that he doesn't like that much, then his purpose is just not to choose the worse one.

The landscaping of the park is very beautiful, but most things are fake. For example, the trees here, the leaves here, including the grass, are all fake.

Real turf, shrubs, and trees all require careful care, and that's not the case here.

On the contrary, this kind of man-made park and plants are more suitable here. You don't need to worry about being damaged by anyone, and you don't need to take care of them periodically. You just need to clean them every once in a while.

Because it's fake, it looks huge in scale.

There are cameras in the park, and the places they can illuminate are places where people walk, such as on walkways and beside benches, but not in the bushes.

As the girl called, a white kitten appeared deep in the bushes. It meowed, and its voice sounded a little sad.

The little girl saw it and stretched out her hand as if to attract it, but the little white cat retreated and hid deeper.

It was after get off work time, and there were some people here, but not many. The girl hesitated, put her schoolbag on the roadside, and got into the bushes.

She hopes to raise a cat, or help it find its owner, no matter what, she wants to hold it in her arms and touch it, which will make her feel happy.

These fake shrubs are very dense and will never wither, allowing them to remain in their most prosperous state forever.

Those branches and leaves blocked the camera's shooting, but they couldn't stop the girl's determination to catch the little white cat.

The closer the girl gets to the little white cat, the smaller the cat will retreat and move deeper.

Unconsciously, it was about twenty or thirty meters away from the sidewalk, the light had become much darker, and the little white cat seemed not to be so afraid of the girl.

The distance between the two is getting closer and closer, so close that as long as you pounce forward, you can catch the little white cat.

The girl knew not to be impatient, so she continued to use her voice to attract the little white cat's attention, while extending a fist to try to communicate with the little white cat.

This is what an older brother she met before told her. For small animals, especially cats and dogs, smell is a very important link in the social interaction of these small animals.

Stretch out a hand clenched into a fist to let the little animal sense your scent first, which will be of great help for subsequent contact.

The little white cat sniffed the back of her hand and then licked it. This made the little girl very happy. She increased her pace slightly and caught the little white cat at once.

The little guy didn't seem to be afraid of her. Just when she was about to hold the little white cat in her arms and take her away from this dark place, she unexpectedly discovered that there was something like a rope under the little white cat's belly. Deeper in the bush.

What made her feel even more strange was that the rope was not tied to the little white cat, but was connected to it, just like... its uncut umbilical cord.

The little girl tugged on the rope strangely, and it seemed that the other end was not far away. She squatted half down to prevent the hard branches and leaves from poking her, and bent down to go deeper inside.

Until she saw a man with only half his body squatting on the ground looking at her!

The other half of the monster's body was connected to the little white cat through the rope. She lowered her head and glanced at the little white cat, who was also looking at her.

You can even feel that it is laughing, smiling maliciously...

Half an hour later, two adults anxiously ran to the roadside of the park. They immediately saw the schoolbag on the sidewalk, which they personally selected for the little girl.

While calling the little girl's name, they asked passers-by around. Some people said they had seen the little girl enter the park, and the couple immediately got in.

However, they searched for a while but found no trace of their daughter. Soon the patrol team surrounded the entire park and began a large-scale search of everything here.

Unfortunately, they found nothing.

There were no signs of a struggle, no blood, no body parts, nothing, it was like nothing had happened here.

This time the security department mobilized a "detective" to cooperate with the investigation. This person once belonged to the FBI and was responsible for some very weird and difficult-to-detect cases.

His detection rate exceeds 30%.

It sounds like this person belongs to that kind of incompetent waste, but in fact, he can get the kind of suspense cases that cannot be solved all year round, and solve 30% of them. This is already an amazing ratio. .

The cases that come to his hands are those that have been tried by more than one agency. There may be many agencies and many groups that have tried but ultimately failed.

The detective just glanced at the schoolbag, then went into the bushes next to the schoolbag. At the same time, he turned on a high-intensity flashlight and asked his assistant to follow him to take photos and collect evidence anytime and anywhere.

"She took off her schoolbag and put it here, which shows that it is inconvenient to carry her schoolbag where she is going, and this position also allows her to see her schoolbag anytime and anywhere, or to return here soon."

Soon, he found a footprint. He took out a ruler and placed it next to the footprint, asked someone to mark it, and continued walking in. "She paused here, which means she saw what she wanted." thing, but she continues to go deeper, which shows that this thing is not a dead thing that cannot move. "

The assistant couldn't help but ask, "Could it be a human being?"

"Maybe she's playing a game with one of her classmates?"

The detective shook his head, "I don't rule out this possibility, but it's unlikely."

"So far we have only found one person's footprints, no one else's, and if they stay for just a moment, they will leave traces."

"But there is nothing here. If two children were chasing and fighting, they would definitely leave some relevant traces, but there is nothing here."

The two continued to move forward, and then found two more footprints, which were the same as the previous footprints. He marked them both, and stopped when he reached the place where the girl last found the monster.

"The smell of blood has not dissipated. She should have been killed here, but the strange thing is that there is no blood here."

He looked around, trying to find some trace of the girl's murder, but couldn't find anything.

Everything here is so clean!

But that doesn't mean he didn't notice it. He found some strange marks on the ground, like traces of rope dragging, and a larger drag mark.

There was also a lot of dust on the leaves of the bush that had been wiped with something. He didn't think it was wiped deliberately by anyone, but it was probably accidentally removed while doing certain actions.

He made a few marks, then shook his head and went back, "It's very difficult to handle. There is a high probability that it was not done by humans."

He stood up, looked around with a flashlight, and found a bit of transparent mucus on a small leaf. "Put this in a glass vessel. Don't contaminate the liquid on it."

The two quickly returned to the sidewalk, and many people had gathered around them. The detective sighed regretfully, "I'm sorry, there is a high probability that your child was killed, but we will continue to search for her whereabouts."

"There may be some other possibilities before the results come out, but I hope you can be mentally prepared."

The detective stood next to his schoolbag and looked towards the final location, but couldn't see anything at all.

The dense branches and leaves cannot be seen even ten meters away, let alone twenty or thirty meters away.

He frowned and looked at the surveillance camera on the roadside, "Can this record sound?"

"I asked, no."

The detective scratched his head and said, "Let's go see what we captured first."

He sighed. There was a high probability that this was not the first case, because the murderer's technique was obviously very mature, and this guy also mastered certain criminal skills.

He has observed the surveillance around here, knows how to avoid surveillance, and also knows how to make the victim escape from the public's sight according to his design, and go to the trap he set according to his ideas.

This kind of case is the hardest to solve. After committing many successful crimes, criminals will become more confident and their thinking will become more active.

It is not easy to catch him.

Moreover, the detective had a vague feeling that this was not a case of human crime.

Chances are it's beyond its capabilities...
