Xu Jinguang crossed his arms and thought for a moment.
"This isn't going to be an easy task."
If they only considered Liujiaping Town, Tielou Town, and the other few towns within the nature reserve's boundaries, it would be too limited.
They had to expand the scope to the entirety of Wudu at the very least.
Wudu has a permanent resident population of 2.3 million.
According to Shen Xin's idea, they needed to start from April 2009, when the giant panda was discovered.
When someone goes missing, there's a reaction time. People don't necessarily report it to the police right away; they might try to find the person themselves first.
Also, if the suspect was acting out of a personal grudge, the victim's family might not even report it. It might have to be confirmed through changes in household registration or the issuance of a death certificate.
That means the timeline would have to be extended even further.
