In this chapter, we learn about a series of missing persons cases that have occurred in the city of Changsha in recent months. Each missing person had four things in common: 1) they were alone; 2) no footprints, fingerprints, or hair were found at their crime scene; 3) they called a family member or friend; and 4) they did not have any property missing. We learn that the civil engineers in Changsha often use the term "life piling" to refer to human beings, but this term is taboo, so they usually use the more formal term, "life-piling. The traffic enforcement department provides 212 videos to help in solving the case. The death toll in this case is 53, and it is also known as the "take-out-doused in human-oil" case.
