Chapter: 4272

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "They seemed to be speaking Japanese, but I don't understand Japanese."

Li Yalin nodded slightly and said to himself, "It seems it was indeed a Japanese ninja."

After that, Li Yalin asked again, "Can you make out what kind of voices they were? Were there more men or women?"

Ye Chen replied without hesitation, "They were all men, and it sounded like at least seven or eight people."

Li Yalin nodded and thanked Ye Chen, then instructed the nearby police officers, "You guys, immediately cordon off the area, conduct a comprehensive examination of each body, and also check the surveillance footage to see if there are any valuable leads. Furthermore, contact Immigration and Customs Enforcement and retrieve records of all Japanese nationals, male or female, aged 18-48 who entered the US within the past week."

After a brief pause, Li Yalin added, "Take away all the personnel on duty tonight and investigate them. Pay attention to whether anyone is missing or absent, and have each person identify others to see if there are any gaps."

Everyone quickly followed orders, and Li Yalin then told Ye Chen, "Since you guys are the only indirect witnesses to the scene, although not eyewitnesses, your testimony will still be very helpful in solving this case. So, we'll need you all to come with us in our police car later and take a statement."

Ye Chen opened his mouth, saying, "Ms. Customer is a public figure, and at this time, going into the police station might cause a stir if it gets out. The US media might create fake news to attract attention, which wouldn't be convenient for us."

As he spoke, Ye Chen suggested, "Why don't we go back to the hotel instead? If you want to take a statement, come to the hotel, and we'll definitely cooperate fully."

Li Yalin nodded, saying, "That's fine. After I arrange things here, I'll bring people to visit the hotel."

Ye Chen asked him, "Can we leave now?"

"Alright."

Feschuanbin, who was standing beside him, looked very displeased and said, "My son is still unaccounted for. Until my son is found, no one is allowed to leave this place!"

Ye Chen furrowed his brow and asked again, "Why not?"?

He didn't continue talking with Feschuanbin and immediately turned to Li Yalin, speaking seriously, "Director Li, I'm very suspicious about this case. The Fei family has a lot of suspicions."?

Feschuanbin gnashed his teeth and roared, "What are you saying?"?

Ye Chen repeated himself, "The Fei family has a lot of suspicions!"

Feschuanbin's heart was filled with anger, just about to speak up when Li Yalin turned very seriously and asked, "Why do you think that?"

Ye Chen spoke sincerely, "This case itself is very strange. The young master of the Fei family deliberately invited Ms. Ke to participate in the charity banquet, but then claimed he needed her to be a mysterious guest, so most people outside didn't even know Ms. Ke was here, and they arranged us in this kind of room with no windows, saying we had to wait for an opportune moment to make our appearance and do some good deeds. It seems like there's no need to be so troublesome, as if there's some conspiracy going on."

As he said that, Ye Chen added, "And what's even more bizarre is that after we arrived, our phones lost signal within a short time, and it still hasn't recovered! I'm very suspicious - someone must have jammed the wireless communication here!"

Li Yalin heard this and subconsciously took out his phone to check. Sure enough, there was no signal or service whatsoever!

He suddenly furrowed his brows and exclaimed, "Johnson, seal off the entire banquet hall and check it out with professional equipment. Let's see what kind of shielding device is being used here!"

Just then, a police officer hurried over and said, "Chief inspector, we've just confirmed that all surveillance footage in this rest area has been replaced with footage from five days ago, from the previous banquet."

Li Yalin raised an eyebrow and asked, "So big of a problem, and the security department didn't notice it?"

The officer replied, "We consulted the security personnel on duty at the monitoring room. They said they had no idea there were important guests tonight, thinking that the VIP room was empty. So their attention was completely focused elsewhere. When those surveillance cameras started playing footage from a few days ago, they didn't notice anything unusual either." JrNovels.com
