Los Angeles Detective

Chapter 596: Flatbread

Chapter 596 Pie

Luke went up to the bedroom on the second floor full of questions.

The father and son looked at each other, but Luke didn't know how to speak.

 As a junior, he is not suitable to interfere with the emotional life of his elders.

 If you want to ask, Luke's grandparents should ask. Luke's uncle can also ask, but he is not suitable as a son.

As an adult, Li Zhaofeng has the right to choose his love life. Even if Luke is dissatisfied with Aunt Chen, there is no reason to separate the two.

  Luke opened his suitcase and packed his belongings.

Li Zhaofeng thought for a moment and said, "Luke, it's too late today. I'll talk to you about Aunt Chen when you have time."

Luke nodded. Chen Shuhua was downstairs. It was indeed inappropriate for the father and son to talk behind others' backs.

After packing up his belongings, Luke went downstairs to drink a bowl of soup, chat briefly, and then returned to the bedroom to rest.

 Luke was lying on the bed. It was already one o'clock in the morning, but he didn't feel sleepy.

 Luke thought of his father and Aunt Chen again.

This thing is indeed a bit sudden, but it makes sense when you think about it carefully. My father is not too old and has a good job. He and Jack are not around, so it is normal to find a new partner.

This incident has little impact on Luke. He has grown up and has his own stable career. Even if his father remarries, it will not affect him. He will just treat him as one more relative.

As for the little fat man, Luke is not sure about his reaction. After all, it is difficult to understand his mind at this age. However, the little fat man lives in Los Angeles and will not have a direct impact on his life.

 Finally, it’s Linda. Luke has always felt that Linda has the idea of ​​​​remarrying. It is estimated that she will be a little disappointed when she finds out about this.

But Luke also thinks that the problem is not big. Linda and Li Zhaofeng are both adults and have been divorced for many years. It is normal to start a new relationship. Besides, the two have not reconciled after being separated for so many years, which already explains a lot of problems. .

Thinking about it, Luke fell asleep...

 “Didi…”

In the early morning, Li Zhaofeng was making breakfast in the kitchen when he heard a car horn sound coming from outside.

Luke walked down the stairs from the second floor and said, “Dad, my colleague drove up to pick me up.

I go first. "

Li Zhaofeng turned around and greeted, "Breakfast will be ready soon. Ask your colleagues to come in and eat together, and then leave after finishing."

"No, this case is urgent. We have to rush to the meeting early." As he spoke, Luke went out and saw Louise sitting in the cab waving, and Luke got into the passenger compartment of the car.

 Louis started the car and asked, "How did you sleep last night?"

"It's okay." Luke said perfunctorily and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

 “I have no appetite in the morning, just a cup of coffee will do.”

“I stopped by the breakfast shop and I went to buy something to eat.

 Are you sure you don’t want to order anything else? My treat. "

"no thank you."

 The two had breakfast in the car and arrived at the FBI's New York office at eight o'clock in the morning.

  Luke went to the Criminal Investigation Department office and was warmly welcomed by the detectives.

criminal profiler Aamir Khan smiled and said, "Luke, I thought you would arrive last night, so I waited all night in vain."

 Michael Jet came over and shook Luke’s hand, “Man, welcome back.

 I was supposed to hold a welcome party for you, but... it’s not very appropriate now.

 When you have time, I’ll treat you to a drink. "

Other agents also came forward to greet Luke.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Luke asked, "Michael, who is responsible for the case of Grace Bloomberg's murder, is it you?"

 Michael Jeter shrugged, "No, the person in charge of the case is Director Thomas, and our team is mainly responsible for the investigation."

Luke was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the head of the FBI's New York office would personally be responsible for investigating the case. Even if it was only in name, this standard was very high.

 In the final analysis, this is just a murder case, but the identity of the deceased is a little special.

While everyone was chatting, the office door was pushed open. Negan Thomas walked into the office from the outside and asked directly, "Good morning, guys. Have you found any clues from the surveillance near the crime scene?"

 Michael Jeter spread his hands and said, "Sorry sir, we checked the surveillance video all night and haven't found any suspicious vehicles yet."

Negan Thomas looked at Luke aside, "When did you arrive? Was the journey smooth?"

 “Arrived in New York at 12 o’clock in the morning.

Sir, I am ready to investigate the case at any time. "

“Very good.” Negan Thomas patted Luke on the shoulder, then pulled up a chair and sat down, looking at everyone, “I don’t care what method you use, you must find a breakthrough in the case as soon as possible.

 This case cannot be kept secret for long.

 Once a case hits the news, it will cause a sensation across the United States and even the world in a short period of time. At that time, our investigation pressure will be even greater.

 So what we have to do is to find the murderer of Grace Bloomberg and solve the case before it comes to light. "

  Michael Jeter sighed, "Director, I agree with your decision, but it is very difficult to find the murderer before the case is exposed..."

“I know, so I asked Consultant Li to help.

Moreover, if the case was not difficult, the New York Police Department would not ask us to take over the investigation directly. Negan Thomas changed the topic and pointed at Michael Jeter, "Michael, I remember you are still the acting team leader, right?" "

"Yes, sir."

“If you could catch Grace Bloomberg’s murderer before the case came to light, you’d be on your way to becoming a regular.”

 Michael Jeter showed a hint of joy, but then stopped, "What if the murderer is caught after the case is exposed?"

“Where do you come from with so many ifs? I’m here to hear the progress of your investigation, not to ask you to put forward conditions.

 If you think you can’t catch the murderer, just tell me.

 I can find someone to replace you now. " Nonono, I can, I will definitely catch the murderer. "

 “Then do it for me.”

 Michael Jeter picked up a piece of information from the table, "This is the autopsy report that the medical examiner just completed.

 According to the autopsy results, the time of death of the deceased Grace Bloomberg was between 9 pm and 12 pm on October 3.

 The fatal injury was on the neck. Someone strangled the neck from behind and suffocated him to death. His arms were also cut off after death.

 The deceased showed signs of being dragged and had drunk alcohol before his death.

In addition, the forensic doctor has detected the man's genetic material in the body of the deceased, and has compared it in the database, but the comparison has not been successful yet. "

Negan Thomas touched his chin and thought, "Do you think the person who left genetic material in the body of the deceased could be the murderer?"

 Michael Jeter thought for a moment, “If so, it would be simple.

However, I think it is unlikely. If it was the murderer, condoms could have been used. Why should genetic material be left in the body of the deceased?

 This is tantamount to leaving ironclad evidence to the police. "

 “What do other people think?” Negan Thomas glanced at everyone and landed on Luke.

 However, before Luke could speak, Aamir Khan said, "Sir, Michael and I have different views."

"you say."

Amir Khan cleared his throat and said, "This murderer's modus operandi is different from ordinary murderers. He may not only have left genetic material, but also special murder symbols.

This shows that his thinking is different from ordinary people. Based on my experience, he is probably a serial killer. Even if he is not yet, he may continue to kill people.

 Suppose my guess is correct.

 Most serial killers have mental problems, and their methods and methods of committing crimes are also different from ordinary murderers. If they want to violate their victims, they will probably not use condoms.

 Because this can give them a sense of satisfaction and achievement.

 I know this may increase their risk of being caught, and they know it too.

 But most of them kill people to satisfy some abnormal psychological needs. If they are afraid, they will not commit crimes. "

“What you two said makes sense.” Negan Thomas nodded, looked at Michael Jeter and said jokingly, “Michael, work harder, you have a strong competitor.”

 Michael Jeter chuckled, “Sir, you don’t need to remind me.

 I have known for a long time that there is a rebel in the group. "

 Amir Khan shrugged and said innocently, "I just expressed my analysis."

Negan Thomas seemed to feel some discomfort in his neck. He twisted it and asked Luke, "Counsellor Li, tell me what you think?"

Luke said, "Actually, compared with the forensic identification results, I am more curious about why the wife of the mayor of New York City drove alone to the mountainside of the suburbs late at night?"

 Aamir Khan echoed, “Good question, actually I’m also very curious.”

 Louis said, "Me too."

Negan Thomas hummed, "I hope your curiosity is out of investigation, not gossip." Then he whispered, "Damn, I'm actually curious too."

  Everybody was trying not to laugh out loud.

Luke spread his hands and said, "Don't tell me, you haven't made notes with the family of the deceased yet?"

  Michael Jeter said in a smooth tone, “If the family you are referring to is the mayor of New York City.

 That’s right, we haven’t written a transcript for him yet.

 It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s just that I haven’t had the chance yet…”

Negan Thomas interrupted Michael Jeter, “I will coordinate and let you write the transcript for Nasi Bloomberg as soon as possible.

Others, who has any progress in the investigation?

 Any clue can be used. "

Luke opened his notebook and said, "Sir, on the way here yesterday, I studied the set of **** footprints found at the scene and analyzed the general physical characteristics of the owner of the shoe prints."

Negan Thomas looked expectant, "Very good, let's talk about it."

“According to the characteristics of the shoe print, it should be a pair of leather shoes with thick soles and horizontal stripes.

 Owner of the shoe print, male

  Height, 180-185CM

  Weight, 85-90 kg

 Age, between 20 and 25 years old. "

Negan Thomas wrote down the data and said, "Use these data as one of the screening criteria for suspects."

 “yessir.”

 After the morning meeting, Negan Thomas called Luke out alone, “Luke, I’m glad you could come.

 Furthermore, valuable clues are provided immediately. "

  “Sir, thank you for your trust in me.”

“I heard that the FBI’s Los Angeles office also hired you as a criminal investigation consultant?”

"Yes."

Negan Thomas smiled and said, "There is nothing new. Ayesha Garde is completely copying my homework."

Luke secretly said, "Of course it's different. I'm a full-time criminal investigation consultant in the FBI's Los Angeles office. Not only do I have my own office, but I also have a real salary."

Luke is just a temporary criminal investigation consultant in the New York office without a salary. If it were not for the sake of the villa, he would not go to New York to handle the case.

Negan Thomas encouraged, “Work hard until this murder case is solved.

I will recommend you to the headquarters. Maybe you can become a criminal investigation consultant at the FBI headquarters. "

Luke is now just a criminal investigation consultant in the branch office. He was also curious about the difference between the two and joked, "Can I get a salary increase?"

Negan Thomas smiled, "Of course, it must be more than what Ayesha gave."
