Los Angeles Detective

  Chapter 187 Advertisement

"Snapped!"

  Brown had just walked into the office of the Robbery and Murder Division when he was slapped severely.

  Li Mei pointed at his nose and said angrily, "You self-righteous bastard, you almost killed your daughter."

   "What about you, what are you doing? Have you ever cared about your daughter?

  He only cares about his own career all day long, and wants to become the master of Los Angeles, the mayor! "

   "I don't want to quarrel with you, but you did something wrong. Not only did you miss the best chance to rescue your daughter, you might even kill her."

   "I just did my best to get my daughter back to me safely."

   "I know you don't like government departments, but you shouldn't make fun of your daughter's life, professional things should be left to professional people.

  You have to learn to trust. "

  Susan interrupted the two people, "You two, this is not a place to quarrel, the most important thing at the moment is to rescue Betty, there is no point in blaming each other now.

   Also, Mr. Kenneth, I want to ask you something.

   If Luke's deputy team hadn't spotted you in time.

   What will you do now?

   Ready for ransom again? Or call the police? "

   Obviously, Susan was also somewhat dissatisfied with Kenneth's behavior.

  Brown Kenneth waved his hand, "I don't know, and I didn't expect things to turn out like this. Those **** **** don't count."

  Brown seemed to think of something, "Have you tracked down the kidnapper's mobile phone?"

"The kidnapper temporarily changed his mobile phone number, and we also tried to trace the new mobile phone number, but the call time was too short, and it was difficult to determine the specific location of the mobile phone." Susan only spoke half of what she said. Although the specific location of the suspect could not be determined, she could still pass The general area judged by the cell phone tower is only relatively large, and it is very difficult to investigate, and it may not be possible to trace the traces of suspicious persons.

   Li Mei asked, "Captain Susan, what are you going to do now?"

  Susan said, "Mayor Li, Mr. Kenneth, you can wait in the lounge first, and we will notify you after we have a meeting to discuss the next step of the investigation."

  Brown asked, "My daughter is in danger now. If you don't do something, continue the meeting?"

  The lieutenant pointed at Brown and yelled, "Shutup!

  Who gave you the courage to accuse the police like this? The reason why things have come to this point is because you concealed the fact that the kidnappers were extorting money.

  Before the police give you a record, it is best to keep your stinky mouth shut. "

  The deputy team was originally an old man with a fierce face, and it was even more frightening when he lost his temper. It really shocked Brown.

  Rett stood up to smooth things over, "Hey, everyone's goal is to rescue Betty, so calm down, only if we trust and cooperate with each other can we handle this matter well.

  Mr. Kenneth, our meeting is not to be lazy, let alone respond negatively, but to brainstorm, collect clues, and analyze the next move of the kidnapper.

   Only by considering everything comprehensively can Betty be as safe as possible.

  Marcus, take Mr. Kenneth to the break room. "

  After Li Mei and Brown left, Susan called everyone to the conference room for a meeting.

   "Everyone, the situation of the case has changed, let me tell you what you think."

  The deputy team said, "Immediately investigate the suspicious persons within the range of the signal tower, notify the local patrol department to cooperate, and call out the monitoring to check whether there are suspicious persons around the time period of the call."

  Matthew said, "It is not just one signal tower that receives the mobile phone signal, but four signal towers. The area is not small, and it is difficult to investigate."

  Susan said, "Then draw a circle centered on the four signal towers. Is it possible that their meeting point is where the suspect was when he called?"

  Matthew shook his head, "This is not a math problem. Even if it is not the intersection point, the signal can be received. As I said, it is difficult to judge accurately, and I can only draw a rough range."

   "OK, let's do it, even if the possibility is small, it's better than not doing it at all." Susan responded, "Anyone else have any ideas?"

  Luke replied, "I think we should go to the ransom delivery location to check, although the suspect may not leave any clues, but what if?

   Moreover, it is possible to compare the surrounding monitoring with the monitoring within the range of cell phone towers. If the person who made the extortion call and the person who took the ransom are the same person, the identity of the other party can be determined through monitoring comparison. "

  Susan nodded, "It is true that we have to go to the ransom delivery location, but considering that the kidnappers may still pay attention to the situation there, it is best not to make a big investigation."

  …

   Half an hour later.

  The back alley of Witton's Steakhouse.

  A black homeless man in sloppy clothes walked into the alley, and complained as he walked, "Why don't you make a big investigation, do you have to dress like this?"

  Xiao Hei reluctantly walked to the trash can, lowered his head to check the garbage in the bucket, and then rummaged around in the bucket, his face was distorted by the smoke,

   "Where do I look like a homeless person?

  Why did you let me look through the trash can by myself?

   What a bunch of nasty guys. "

  Although he complained, but the work had to continue, Xiao Hei searched for a while, but found nothing suspicious, took out his mobile phone and took a few photos, and he was able to complete the job.

  Xiao Hei left the back alley, looked around and saw that no one was following him, so he took off his worn coat and ran back to the Ford car.

  Luke asked, "Find anything?"

  Xiao Hei pouted, "Yeah, a lot of stinky kitchen waste."

   "Didn't find the backpack with cash?" According to Brown's description, he packed the money in a black backpack.

  "No, maybe the kidnapper took the schoolbag away with him. This is normal. After all, there are two hundred thousand dollars in it. Putting it from one backpack into another may be discovered by passers-by."

   "Good job, hard work." Luke encouraged.

  Xiao Hei stretched out his right hand, ready to open the door and get in the car.

   Luke yelled, "Hey, are you sure you want to come up?

   "What do you mean?" Xiao Hei was confused.

   "You just flipped over the trash can, and now sitting in the car will make the car dirty, and it will affect both our bodies and minds for at least a few days.

  You'd better take a taxi back.

  I will help you reimburse the fare, you are welcome. After Luke finished speaking, he kicked the accelerator and left.

  Xiao Hei "..."

  …

  The next morning.

   Robbery and Murder Division, No. 1 Squadron.

  In the office.

  Susan, Jenny, Raymond, and Matthew all have a panda eye.

  Considering that the kidnapper might call at any time, the four of them stayed in the office on duty.

   Luke, Xiao Hei, and the deputy team went home to sleep.

  In the morning, Luke walked into the office carrying two bags of breakfast, "Guys, it's breakfast."

  The deputy team asked, "Is there something to eat if you don't work overtime?"

   "Of course, burgers, burritos, donuts, milk tea, coffee, French fries, you can take whatever you want." Luke waved his hand.

   "Thank you." Susan took a cup of milk tea.

  Luke has donuts in his left hand and sugar-free coffee in his right, "Captain, what happened last night?"

  Susan took a sip of milk tea, "We checked the surveillance all night, and found no suspicious persons. Instead, Matthew found a new clue."

  Matthew just picked up the burger and took a bite, and said vaguely, "Let me fill my stomach first, I'm almost hungry."

  After eating a hamburger, Matthew drank another cup of coffee before showing a satisfied expression, "Deputy Luke, thank you for your breakfast, I feel like I'm alive."

  Luke raised his coffee cup as a gesture.

  Matthew took out a document from the table, "The captain asked me to investigate Amy Ma's communication situation, and I found that Amy Ma seldom communicates with the outside world, her mobile phone number is clean, and she has never registered with other software.

  I feel this is a bit abnormal, and I suspect that she may have another mobile phone number.

   Sure enough, I investigated the network IP of Mr. Kenneth’s house, and found that there is a chat software that often logs in and uses the WiFi of Mr. Kenneth’s house.

  I specifically asked Mr. Kenneth about this, and according to him, no outsiders use the WiFi in their home, only he, Betty, and nanny Amy Ma know about it.

   And he has never used that chat software, so I suspect that Amy Ma is probably using that chat software. "

   Matthew said, putting a document on the projector, "This is a screenshot of a chat software, this chat software has a special name called 'WeChat'.

   Maybe everyone has never heard of this chat software, but it is the top three chat software in the world in terms of user volume.

  The main users are Chinese. I used it yesterday. This chat software is very interesting.

  In addition to chatting, this software can also post Moments, where you can post some life videos and pictures.

  Amy Ma is very active on this software and uses it almost every day.

  And Amy Ma's account name is 'Mrs. Kenneth'.

  There are a lot of photos of Kenneth’s family in her circle of friends. In these photos, she is gorgeously dressed, wearing designer jewelry, with a designer leather bag on the table, and designer clothes in the wardrobe.

   In the circle of friends, she is no longer a nanny, but a rich and laid-back full-time wife.

  In addition to her own life, she also posts about women and children.

  Because they are all in Chinese, I just translated the general meaning. For example, as long as a pregnant woman comes to the United States to give birth, the child can obtain an identity.

  The living environment here is superior, the food is cheap, the welfare is good, and the competition is small.

  The parents of the child can also obtain status through kinship, and she herself obtained a green card in the United States through this channel.

   There are also some subsidies and fees that children can receive when they are young, probably in this category. "

  Others can’t understand Chinese, but Luke understands it clearly. This is not an introduction to his life, but a soft advertisement for Yuezi Center.

   There is only one short sentence, please contact if you are interested.

  After seeing Amy Ma's wardrobe at the scene of the crime, Luke felt that it was difficult for her to afford these expenses based on the nanny's salary alone, so he guessed that she might have other sources of income.

  After that, IRS investigator Shakira also provided a clue. More than a year ago, a confinement center gave money to Amy Ma, and then that confinement center closed down.

  Amy Ma still maintains a high consumption, but has no clear source of income, and does not pay high income taxes.

   Judging from the contents of WeChat, Amy Ma’s source of income is likely to be introducing customers to confinement centers in the United States, but the previous legitimate income has become a private transaction.

  Amy Ma's advertisement photo also has the name of the confinement center, Luke felt the need to investigate.

   Thank you book friends for your rewards!

   Thank you!
