Silent Crime in the City

In the prosperous Linzhou City, many bizarre disappearances occurred one after another: the missing persons were all young people living alone and white-collar workers in the workplace. They had no domestic violence, no debts, and no conflicts. They disappeared out of thin air. There was no trace of struggle at the scene, and all surveillance was ineffective. The police had no clue for many days, and the case became an unsolved case. Former police officer Shen Yan was entrusted by the family of a missing person to take over the investigation of this strange case. During the investigation, they met Su Wan, a journalist who was digging into the truth. The two discovered that all the missing people had spent money at the same high-end club, logged into the same niche social software, and had contact with the same mysterious person. All clues pointed to the flawless charity entrepreneur Chen Jingzhi. As the investigation deepened, Shen Yan discovered that this serial disappearance case perfectly matched the old case that made him resign three years ago. The victims, evidence, and all doubts from that year were all connected together. He had already been set up by the villain and fell into a murderous trap. The lies, betrayals, exchanges of interests, and distortions of human nature in the city surface one by one. The seemingly perfect social elite hides a bloodthirsty nature; the seemingly ordinary daily life in the city hides murderous intent everywhere. The protagonist breaks through the layers of fog step by step, avoiding frame-ups and life-and-death crises, dismantling the murderer's carefully laid puzzle, peeling off the cocoons to find key evidence, and finally tearing apart the villain's perfect disguise, revealing a shocking conspiracy that spans several years, involving capital, human nature, and sin, finding the truth about all the missing persons, completing self-salvation, and protecting the light of the city.
