Receiving surveillance of the three missing patrollers, Li Jing clicked each to view them.
The lengths of the three surveillance videos varied greatly.
The shortest was four minutes, and the longest was eleven minutes.
The three surveillance videos shared three common elements.
First, the three patrollers were under the watch of road surveillance throughout.
Second, all three patrollers were in plain clothes.
Third, in the surveillance videos, the three missing patrollers appeared at the tail end of Dark Street towards Dong Ye City, in front of a privately-owned pawn shop before leaving.
At a glance, the problem was very obvious.
Firstly, the three patrollers seem to have consciously realized that they might be in danger and therefore ensured they were always under the surveillance of the roads.
Secondly, the destinations of the three missing patrollers in the variable-length surveillance videos were very specific - the pawnshop at the end of the street.
