With the below code it is working perfect for me. Can you check whether the specified file location is correct? Also try reading id like pagesObject.get("id")

package json.simple;

import java.io.FileReader;

import org.json.simple.JSONArray;
import org.json.simple.JSONObject;
import org.json.simple.parser.JSONParser;

public class ReadJSON {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        JSONParser parser = new JSONParser();
        JSONObject pagesObject = (JSONObject) parser.parse(new FileReader("/home/user/tmp/test.json"));
        System.out.println(pagesObject.get("id"));
        System.out.println(pagesObject.get("pages").getClass().getName());
        JSONArray jsonArray= (JSONArray) pagesObject.get("pages");

        for(int i=0; i<jsonArray.size(); i++){
            System.out.println(jsonArray.get(i));
        }
    }
}

And here is the content of my test.json. Exactly same as yours

{
    "id": "0912898213",
    "pages": [
        {
            "pageUrl": "http://www.example0.com",
            "results": [
                {
                    "number": "1"
                },
                {
                    "number": "2"
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "pageUrl": "http://www.example1.com",
            "results": [
                {
                    "number": "3"
                },
                {
                    "number": "4"
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

And here is my dependency in maven

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.googlecode.json-simple</groupId>
    <artifactId>json-simple</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.1</version>
</dependency>

Have you tried using JSONArray.getJSONObject(int), and JSONArray.length() to create your for-loop:

for (int i = 0; i < recs.length(); ++i) {
    JSONObject rec = recs.getJSONObject(i);
    int id = rec.getInt("id");
    String loc = rec.getString("loc");
    // ...
}
