US police: outlaws

Chapter 32: Clues

Li Yisen felt his heartbeat become stronger and more powerful. Judging from the effect alone, it was already close to a 4-star reward, with one adding 3 attributes and the other adding 4 attributes.

The most exaggerated thing is that he felt he grew one centimeter taller. He measured himself and found that he had indeed grown from 1.86 meters to 1.87 meters. It seems that physical development can affect height. This is what is called secondary development.

Next, I'll store up rewards to strengthen my top-tier fast-twitch muscle fibers. I wonder if I'll become a muscleman someday?

Li Yisen is quite satisfied with his current physique, standing at 1.87 meters tall and weighing 85 kilograms.

Just then, he heard police sirens coming from the Hamilton house next door. Through the window, he saw several Hamilton family members talking to the police in an agitated manner.

Li Yisen hesitated for a moment, but still went over to see what was going on. After all, they were neighbors, even though he had only been to the house across the street once.

"I live next door, my two colleagues. What happened?"

The Hamiltons looked at their neighbors, especially at Fiona's red eyes.

The two police officers quickly recognized who it was. After all, they were from the same police station, and the other person had made a name for himself twice in a row, with their supervisor (team leader) expressing envy on several occasions.

"Ethan Lee, so you live here. Sophia, the second daughter of the Hamilton family, didn't come home from school, and Miss Hamilton is so upset. As you know, Officer Ethan, our country has a recovery rate of 97%, and most missing children who run away from home are found. We even activated the Amber Alert."

Lee Ethan nodded in agreement. America had indeed gone missing many times, but the recovery mechanism was very comprehensive, with zero waiting time for case filing and an immediate search within a 5-kilometer radius.

Most importantly, the Amber Alert pushes information about suspects and children across the entire network, including mobile phones, highway screens, and social media.

Of course, this does not include families without even a place to live, nor does it include illegal immigrants. The recovery rate for missing children of illegal immigrants is only 8%.

Of course, the reason why legal citizens can be found so easily is because only 2% of the people who are trafficked are trafficked. Traffickers prefer to traffic people without identification, foreigners, and illegal immigrants because the risk is low.

Before Li Yisen could learn more, a beautiful figure rushed into his arms, hugging his waist tightly, crying with tears streaming down her face.

Li Yisen didn't find being surrounded by warm and soft women enjoyable at all; you could tell how awkward it was just by looking at the strange looks on his two colleagues' faces.

Fiona cried out.

"Ethan, please help me find Sophia."

"I'll help."

Lee Ethan patted the girl on the back and looked at Ian, who was blaming himself.

"Where is your father?"

"He's too drunk to be woken up."

You scumbag.

Ethan Lee was at his wit's end.

"I will help you find someone in your organization who is willing to help."

"Um."

Soon, volunteers and police officers from the community began searching, and Li Yisen also searched the waterways and abandoned buildings in the dark, calling out Sofia's name.

"Sophia".

Suddenly, a sound came from the abandoned room.

"I'm here, I'm here."

Li Yisen frowned as he listened; this didn't sound like a woman's voice, but more like a man's muffled voice.

As the footsteps drew closer, a middle-aged man in a skirt, looking disheveled, approached him. His hairy legs and skirt were physically unsettling, and to Li Yisen, he looked like a monster.

"I'm here."

"Bang."

Without hesitation, Li Yisen kicked the man away and took out his phone.

What bad luck to run into a mentally unstable guy.

"This is Officer 49527. I have found a mentally unstable man with violent tendencies in an abandoned house in XXX. Please send backup."

Li Yisen worked on it until 1 a.m., but ultimately came up empty-handed. There were too few surveillance cameras in the poor community. He couldn't find any clues in the surveillance footage of convenience stores or similar locations, and he couldn't even confirm exactly where the person went missing.

He had no choice but to pat Ian on the shoulder.

"Take good care of your sister."

.

The next day at work, Li Yisen received another missing person report. Upon arrival, he found that another girl, Roland, 16 years old, from a single-parent family, had gone missing. Her mother had called the police when she returned home in the morning and found no one there.

Coincidence?

Lee Ethan didn't think much of it at first, since an average of four people went missing every day in the city. It wasn't until he was patrolling a poor neighborhood and saw a man pulling at a woman that he began to take the missing persons case seriously.

"Sir, please let go."

The woman immediately shouted when she saw that they were police officers.

"Officer, I need to report a missing daughter."

"That's not true. My wife has some mental issues."

"No, Ivan's daughter went missing yesterday too."

When Lee Ethan heard that the two girls had gone missing, he was taken aback and immediately stopped the woman from continuing.

As the other party explained, Li Yisen realized that the two were illegal immigrants. The man was stopping them because he was afraid of being reported to the police, since many illegal immigrants are deported before their cases are closed.

This is not an isolated case in America; at least 3% of illegal immigrants who report crimes are deported before the case is closed.

Lee Ethan looked at Evelyn, leaving the younger generation somewhat bewildered.

What happened to my face?

"It's nothing, I just wanted to know if you could pretend to be a poor person who lost his daughter."

"ha?"

Soon Evelyn appeared before Lee Ethan wearing cheap, secondhand clothes and spun around with great interest.

"Am I alright?"

Lee Ethan felt there was something wrong with the policewoman's outfit; it clearly cost less than $20 for her entire outfit.

Right, there was no apathy or worldliness like that of illegal immigrants, so he messed up the other person's hair and then smeared dust on her face. Soon a homeless woman with some good looks appeared in front of him.

"Alright, your task today is to approach some undocumented immigrant families and find out how many undocumented immigrant children are missing in the community."

California has 2 million undocumented immigrants, making up more than 10 percent of the state's population. In Claremont, a city with a population of 300,000, there are about 30,000 undocumented immigrants.

If human traffickers are really targeting girls from these families, there's definitely something fishy going on.

The following evening, Evelyn let out a roar.

"Go to hell."

With a beautiful back throw, she slammed the man who was trying to take advantage of her to the ground.

"That damn bitch..."

Before the man could finish speaking, Evelyn had already stomped on his mouth. In the poorest neighborhood in the city, there were many thugs like this.

Evelyn quickly returned to the car, kicked Ethan out, and started changing her clothes.

"I will never go in plainclothes again."

"Thanks a lot."

As Li Yisen spoke, he glanced at the record, his brow furrowing involuntarily.

"There are too many. In a community of several thousand people, 14 girls have gone missing, all within the last two days."

Ethan Lee intended to report this, so he asked someone in the car.

"Are you done yet?"

"Hmm."

"Okay, I'm coming in now."

The car door opened, and Li Yisen was instantly stunned, because Evelyn hadn't changed yet. The white "Wenxiong" covered her enormous, proudly large breasts, which were as white as jade and had a deep cleavage that made it impossible for men to look away.

The two looked at each other, and Evelyn dressed as if she didn't see her at all. If it weren't for the slight blush on her face, one would really think she didn't care.

"Let's go."

"Um."

After Li Yisen submitted the compiled data, the police department did take it seriously and even reported it to the county headquarters.

Of course, someone's report also allowed the mastermind behind the case to learn from the mole that the matter had been exposed.

In an office, Clermont real estate tycoon Eric Frederick angrily picked up a file and threw it in his daughter's face.

"You put my mind at ease like this? What happened to your promise to me?"

"....."

Serena Carroll lowered her head and bit her lip.

"I will make amends, Father."

"Hmph, make amends? Immediately notify 13K to send the goods away. I'll cover the shortfall. Now get out of here right now."

"Yes."

As Serena arrived at the door, Eric suddenly added a sentence.

"That cop is too cocky. I don't want to see him in my territory again."

"Yes."
