2045 Female Detective 28
Back at the bureau, Xining and Karak went to report to the head.
After hearing this, Tou sat behind his desk and pondered for a long time. He waited until he was almost impatient before he spoke. When he opened his mouth, it was full of official tone: "I know you two are working hard, but this matter involves high-level officials and we need evidence..."
"Stop, stop~" Xining made a stop motion: "Sir, I understand your embarrassment. I will continue to investigate this matter and find evidence as soon as possible."
My time is precious, and I don't want to listen to these high-sounding formulas.
I felt relieved. If I couldn't handle it clearly, I would have to suppress it. Fortunately, I didn't have to. It would be too hurtful. So I reminded: "Everything must follow legal procedures."
"That's for sure!" Xining said with a smile, "I promise to follow legal procedures."
As a result, she and Karak quickly left the office.
As soon as I sat down, some survey results came in.
The technical department went to investigate the origin of the online order, and it turned out that the account belonged to someone else.
While he was watching, Clark asked a little worriedly: "Carroll, did you guess the wrong person? From your report just now, Dr. Lacey did not admit that he did this."
This was the reason why she didn't let Tou continue to speak. It was already obvious to Tou that she wanted evidence. If she stared hard, she would definitely ask the same thing. If she didn't admit it, why should she doubt her?
Xining rolled his eyes: "He didn't say it wasn't him. Women's intuition is very sensitive."
"For example?" Karak's eyes were a little strange and affectionate.
She ignored it: "For example, when a man cheats, a woman will definitely feel it. Most of the people who say they don't know are just knowing and pretending not to know."
Karak's eyes immediately became lost, and his intuition was very sensitive. Could it be that he didn't feel anything at all?
At this time, the trainee agent came over excitedly and brought some good news. In the video, Dr. Lacey appeared near the house where the package was picked up. Although he was wearing a very ordinary sweatshirt and a black baseball cap, he still
Half of his face was exposed in an instant.
The time was a month ago... For this reason, four intern agents took turns with each other and stayed here for twenty-four hours to watch the surveillance.
As soon as I saw Dr. Lacey on the surveillance camera just now, I rushed over to report the good news.
Xining touched her slightly hot forehead. She didn't need Karak to remind her. She knew: "The surveillance a month ago can't prove anything. I can't convince the jury that he stepped on the spot a month ago just to prepare for the loan."
When the household is not at home, leave the package for the courier to pick up."
The lawyer will immediately refute that he has not been there once during this period. If this house happened to be there, or if a tenant was changed or something, wouldn't the package be left in vain?
Karak asked: "How about the surveillance near the warehouse?"
The trainee detective replied: "The package was placed at noon yesterday and has been found. He said that when he was smoking on the road, someone gave him fifty dollars and asked him to put the things there. This is his information."
Xining knew at first glance that he was a loser. He was an unemployed vagrant and had various shady histories. Even if he went to court and was identified, the lawyer would question whether he had knocked on something that day. The testimony of such a person would easily be
Can be overturned.
The trainee detective continued: "The surveillance of the warehouse is only kept for half a year, and will be covered after half a year. It is still being watched, and no trace of the suspect has been found so far."
If something happens in the warehouse, it will be revealed early, and there are many things that we try not to get involved with. Like many places that are monitored 24 hours a day, a storage time is set.
If you can't see it, it means that Dr. Lacey has not been to the warehouse in half a year. If he is there, then in court, the lawyer will have to rely on his sharp tongue to convince the jury that all this is a coincidence. Even if it is.
After a long time, Dr. Lacey still appeared at two important scenes.
The trainee detective said with a bit of grievance: "After half a year, the surveillance will only cover three nearby intersections. How long will it take to finish watching?"
"Thank you for your hard work!" Karak said flatteringly: "I'll order pizza for you."
"Don't~" The trainee agent waved his hands abnormally: "I don't dare. I don't know who will be poisoned next."
There are many different ways of poisoning, making it difficult for people to guard against and making people panic.
"Thank you then!" Karak could only thank him first.
After the trainee agent left, Xining looked at the surveillance screenshot. Dr. Lacey was dressing up as if he were exercising, but the difference was that he didn't lead the dog. It was very remote, so there was no need to walk the dog as a cover. It could be said to be a casual walk, this
The city is big, but it's only that big. The scenery there is nice, there are special shops nearby, old friends are there...there are many reasons.
It’s more likely that there are so many people who say it’s not me, half of their faces look similar. Is there any evidence that the person who monitored me is the person? And what happened a month ago, who still remembers it.
This guy...
It was already past the time to get off work, so Karak suggested: "How about I treat you to dinner?"
"Didn't I invite you yesterday?" She was in a bad mood, mainly because she thought of Lacey's playful expression when holding the test tube, and she wanted to snatch the test tube and stuff it directly into his mouth.
Karak was a little embarrassed: "I only ate half of it."
Yes, I only ate half of the steak, but the steak didn’t taste very good: “It’s better not to go there.” It’s not delicious, and it costs money to eat.
Karak misunderstood and thought she was afraid: "Then I order some takeout?"
No, the takeout is very likely to be poisoned. Now he had no idea: "Otherwise, we can go to the restaurant upstairs..."
Another stupid move, I've long been tired of eating at the restaurant in the building every day.
Just when Karak didn't know what to do, Xining picked up the bag and said, "I'll treat you to something."
"Where to go?" Karak followed.
Chinatown is located next to the bustling famous street. You can see Chinese signs everywhere. Many styles may be considered Chinese by people here, but in the eyes of real descendants of the Tang Dynasty, they are just plain old-fashioned.
She found a restaurant that served Sichuan cuisine, sat down and started ordering. Spicy chicken, mapo tofu, and boiled beef.
Considering the duck blood and internal organs in it, Karak probably didn't like eating it, so he didn't order the couple's lung slices. He also didn't want to eat fish with bones, so he gave up the boiled fish and the fish head with minced pepper. Plus there was only enough appetite for two people.
That's it, otherwise she would have wanted to order all the dishes.
After ordering, he said to the waiter in Chinese: "It's slightly spicy. Two more bowls of rice. Tell the chef to make it more authentic."
The waiter was taken aback for a moment by his fluent Chinese, and then he nodded with a smile, collected the menu, and left.
Karak looked at her in surprise: "Can you speak Chinese?"
"No." She denied it flatly, and the reason was not random: "I know these two sentences. In order to have a good meal, I might forget it after eating."
The waiter brought a teapot and poured them two cups of tea first. Xining pressed two fingers on the table to express his gratitude.
The waiter immediately became emotional. In order to prevent the waiter from having a casual conversation with her, Xining hurriedly spoke to Karak: "Are you going to go home and sleep next, or live in the office building?"
Upon hearing this, the waiter thought that there might be a conflict between the two of them, so he put down the teapot and walked away knowingly.
Chapter completed!
