Chapter 384: The Vixen is Actually a Natural Born Police Officer
Chapter 384: The Vixen is Actually a Natural Born Police Officer
The fox police officer frowned and tried to recall, but finally shook his head and said, "I only remember that she was traveling with several female companions, and I have never seen her traveling with men. The woman's behavior was very abnormal, and it was obvious at first glance that she was not a mortal, nor did she look like a sect disciple. That's why I paid more attention to her and remembered her."
The fox clan has always had a bad reputation, especially since a demon concubine named Daji appeared in the clan five hundred years ago. In the eyes of the righteous, the fox clan is evil by nature and is good at changing themselves and hiding among the crowd to deceive people and create disasters.
The Jinling Immortal Sect and its affiliated Chamber of Commerce, which uphold the philosophy of Jiejiao, emphasize recruiting talents without any restrictions and never make arbitrary conclusions based on origin or race.
Placing monsters with special skills in the right positions may not necessarily have a negative impact.
The fox demon clan's innate transformation technique has a hidden skill as a prerequisite, which is to be very good at remembering the body shape, appearance and behavioral habits of the person to be transformed.
Otherwise, they wouldn't look so much like each other, and it would be almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
If this skill is given to a policeman, he will become a natural detective. He can just glance at a crowd and know all their faces by heart.
Moreover, foxes are canines and have a very sensitive sense of smell. They do not need to be led by police dogs, but can work part-time as police dogs themselves. Their scent identification and tracking abilities far exceed those of humans.
What’s even more interesting is that foxes are suspicious and meticulous, and they can easily detect abnormalities when observing people.
As for being clever and eloquent, acting, answering questions and bluffing during interrogation or questioning are the basic qualities that fox demons are born with.
Wen Rui suddenly felt like an undercover boss who had discovered an outstanding employee who had not been buried.
"Very good, Officer Tu Shanmu, you are officially recruited. Now you have to put aside all your work for the time being and only assist me in investigating the missing persons case."
"As you command, sir!"
A local police officer was temporarily recruited, and Wen Rui and his team began to visit every store around Jinling University. With this fox in police uniform, the efficiency of the investigation was greatly improved.
There is no need for Wen Rui to come forward, let alone Taibai Jinxing, a country bumpkin who likes to show off his wit, to interfere.
All the fox demon officer had to do was salute the store owners and say, "This is a case handled by the Liberty City Police Department. Please cooperate with our work," and the store owners would obediently tell him everything they knew.
After some inquiries, it turned out that there was indeed a shop owner who had seen the woman in purple walking with the man in the photo, but after all, three years had passed and most people could not remember what the man looked like.
He can only be described vaguely with one or two sentences: "imposing and majestic", "handsome and unrestrained", "handsome and resolute", "eight feet tall, with a very majestic appearance".
While Tu Shanmu was questioning the store owner, Wen Rui continued to check the edited surveillance video. The more he reviewed it, the more difficult the case seemed to him.
Wen Rui installed many cameras in Liberty City and built the Skynet system, but that doesn't mean he knows everything that has happened in Liberty City over the years.
After all, no matter how good the equipment is, it may run smoothly at the beginning, but it will eventually break down as time goes by.
Even though a Skynet maintenance team has been established to regularly repair damaged cameras, there is no guarantee that all cameras will be able to shoot normally every day.
In the edited surveillance videos, there are dates where the camera was damaged and no footage was captured.
What is very crucial is that these missing images, compared with the testimony of the inquiring shop owner, are exactly the images that should have been captured when Fairy Yuqiao was traveling with the man.
Although no key clues have been found, it has been indirectly confirmed that someone is indeed deliberately covering up the matter.
In other words, the seventh youngest of the Seven Fairies did not end up in a cliché drama like "The Legend of the White Snake" due to fate, but instead stepped into a deliberately woven conspiracy web.
It's obvious that she has fallen into the beauty trap!
Moreover, the person who came up with this plan actually had a deep understanding of electronic products and knew how to interfere with and destroy surveillance equipment, so that the video could not capture the man's true face.
This made Wen Rui feel a chill down his spine. After following Officer Fox to almost all the shops on the commercial street, he did not make any new progress. He only confirmed that Fairy Yuqiao had indeed dated a handsome man several times behind the backs of the other six fairies.
Based on the store owner's recollections and narration, the man had a complete grasp on Fairy Yuqiao and was very good at Photoshop. Even the food and drinks during their date were all paid for by the silly girl.
The investigation was once again at a stalemate. The love saint knew how to shield electronic products, which really hit Wen Rui's soft spot.
He relies too much on technological creations, just like a modern person who has lost his mobile phone. Once he loses the most effective auxiliary tool, he will be at a loss.
"Alas... I spent all day trying to catch eagles, only to have my eyes pecked by them."
With a helpless sigh, seeing that the whole street had come to the end with only a few shops left, Wen Rui began to consider long-term plans.
I thought that this small case could be solved quickly and easily, but now I am afraid that I will have to stay in the mortal world for a long time.
Frowning and at a loss, Wen Rui thought about giving it a try and asked Taibai Jinxing thoughtfully, "Chang Geng, what do you think?"
"Brother, I think there must be something fishy about this matter!"
Taibai Jinxing had been an official in heaven before the great calamity of the Conferred Gods. He was much older than Wen Rui, but he consciously called himself a younger brother in front of Wen Rui.
"You deserve a beating, is there any need for you to waste your time talking nonsense here?"
Wen Rui raised his hand and wanted to slap him. It didn’t matter how Taibai Jinxing answered, what was important was that he found a reason to slap him.
If you are in a bad mood, just slap him twice to stretch your muscles and relax.
Maybe a slap will bring you some inspiration.
"No, no, no, don't rush into it." Taibai Jinxing said hurriedly: "I have just asked so many people, and although their descriptions are not very detailed, by piecing together what they said, we can roughly guess the appearance of the man who kidnapped the fairy. Find a painter to draw a picture of the figure, and it will be used as a reference to find it."
"Eh? That's right!"
Wen Rui suddenly realized that his addiction to electronic devices was too severe, which had restricted his thinking.
Wen Rui immediately took action after thinking of it. He quickly called out to Officer Fox who was still asking around: "Officer Tushan, you have asked so many people. Based on their descriptions, can you use your conjecture to transform yourself into the appearance of the man they are talking about?"
After getting the hint from Taibai Jinxing, Wen Rui did not plan to look for some skilled painter, but instead thought of a simpler and more intuitive method.
The fox demon has another extraordinary skill as a police officer, which is that she can listen to the description and try to transform into the appearance of the suspect!
Therefore, if the fox spirit is willing to follow the right path, it can really leave bad guys with no way out.
Officer Fox was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly and said, "Sir, I'll give it a try. It may be a little different from my real self, but at least it should look similar."
"Young man, you are very good, you are a talent!" Wen Rui patted the fox police officer's shoulder heavily, his eyes full of admiration: "Do a good job, and handle this case well... No, even if you can't do it well, I will promote you!"
The fox police officer suppressed his excitement, took a deep breath, muttered something, and activated his innate magical power.
Wen Rui couldn't help but widen his eyes. His curiosity had already been burning. He wanted to see how handsome the sinister mastermind was, who could make fairies fall at his feet in his flowery shorts.
