Life as a police officer in America

Chapter 701 I would rather go to jail than pay

Wang Dengming worked so hard, the mayor Solomon Gibran suggested half-seriously and half-jokingly: Police Chief Wang, you can apply to work in our town, we warmly welcome you.

The detective was as tired as a male shrimp, and laughed after hearing this: "Your town can't afford a policeman like him, he's a freak!"

Is it a compliment or a complaint? I can hear it. The detective is complaining. In order to chase two robbers who robbed more than 200 dollars, he is so tired that he still has no bonus.

But the effect is there. The detective's footwork has improved a lot, and the cost of Wang Dengming's contracting the field to let the police officers in the police station exercise has finally paid off.

Gibran had no choice but to say: "The town government is about to go bankrupt, let alone the police station."

Wang Dengming: "The police station in Gumeng Town, Alaska where I am located is managed by the county police station and the city police station in turn. Mr. Mayor, why can't you apply?"

Outside the mayor's office, a peach tree was almost withered. He said to the tree, "Our town is like this tree. Who would like to come to our town to be a policeman?"

The inspector said: "Boss, although our town is haunted by ghosts, we can still receive wages anyway. Our previous thinking was wrong, and we can't covet enjoyment."

The two drank coffee in the mayor's office.

Not even two people from the town government went to work, and the deserted real Qingshui yamen was silent.

Many people resigned voluntarily, and no one would do it without salary. More than half of the town's funds are trying to support the daily expenses of the adventure castle.

Gibran doesn't know how long he can last. If the adventure castle closes down, it will basically declare the death of the town of Flosmos, and the rest of the town will leave.

"Sergeant Wang, if you solve the problem of the adventure castle, the reward will be on"

The detective put the coffee back on the table: "Mr. Mayor, your coffee is a bit expensive"

Wang Dengming was still drinking the coffee, looking comfortable.

"Sheriff Wang is the boss, I reserve my opinion."

"If Sergeant Fowlerson really solves the case, Mr. Mayor, are you sure you will keep your promise?"

"Of course, that's a lot of money, a lot of money! It's a lot of money for our town."

Wang Dengming put down the coffee and said with a smile: "Mayor, we will try our best to assist in the investigation of the case. The issue of remuneration is the last issue. The detective who died later is called Kostin Felho?"

"Yes."

"Captain Sith said he was crazy, and the police information you gave me said that he died after going crazy. There is a bit of a discrepancy between them."

"It may be that the information collected by the Sith captain is not very accurate."

"Did you find out that Costin Fairhorse had mental problems before his death?"

"Detective Fowlerson also asked this question. Yes, it happened. The night before he jumped off the top of the tower, his spirit was not very right. The two boys in the adventure castle found that he would talk to himself. , would giggle alone for no reason, he became less aware of the people around him, sometimes sober and sometimes confused."

"Talk to yourself? Well, what did you say?"

"According to the two young men who accompanied him in the investigation, oh, they are the two ticket sellers of the ancient castle, the detective said in a rambling manner: I'm going to catch you, you can't run away, I'm going to catch you, You can't run. That's the line he repeats the most."

"Did he say, what did I see and hear?"

"It's not in the conductor's interrogation record. I also asked them, and there is no."

"Is there any panic or fear on his face?"

"No."

"Is there any sleepwalking condition?"

The mayor paused: "No, nothing like this happened. What did he show? It was excitement, yes, it was excitement."

"Can we meet the conductor?"

"Inspector Fowlerson's coroner has gone to them."

"Forget it, Captain Sith told me that the bounty was jointly funded by the town government and Father Borg's son, what about others?"

The mayor smiled wryly when he mentioned Father Borg's son.

"what's wrong?"

"This little fool! After the state government forcibly closed the adventure castle, he secretly operated it at night. After being caught, he only needs to pay a small fine. He doesn't need to go to jail, but the fine is a bit bigger. He chooses to go to jail. After a few days You can come out."

The inspector smiled and said, "I'd rather go to jail than pay a fine. Does he have no money, or is the fine really too big?"

"The amount of the fine is the same as the remuneration given by the town government for signing."

Wang Dengming also smiled and said, "I see. He wants to save the money to pay the bounty for the investigation. What's his name?"

"Borg Toback."

"The tickets for the Adventure Castle are pretty high-end. The castle should be making money. I'm talking about before the accident happened."

"No, before exposure"

It was a slip of the tongue, and the mayor wanted to take back what he had said, but it was obviously too late.

"Did something go wrong before the exposure?"

"No problem, the castle is running very well. What I'm talking about is that the entrance ticket has been at this price before the accident. You have all seen how amazing the expenses in the castle are."

Wang Dengming said to the detective: "Let's go, Mr. Mayor is perfunctory us."

Inspector: "Mayor, you didn't tell the truth. Did something else happen before the accident?"

Wang Dengming: "If you don't tell us the truth, it will be detrimental to the investigation of the case. This is contrary to your original intention of offering a huge reward to solve the case."

The vicissitudes of the mayor laughed at himself helplessly: "Well, there was an accident before the accident, and three tourists were missing, but the matter has been resolved. Father Borg lost a lot of money for this. If it weren't for the missing tourists Borg Tobeck ain't going to jail."

"can you give me more detail?"

"Of course, this matter."

"I understand that our sense of secrecy is more principled than that of big cities. We are rural police, and the occlusion has trained our secrecy cells very well. Don't worry, does Inspector Fowler know about this?"

"he does not know."

"Very well, please tell me about the situation at that time"

They chatted with the mayor for almost an hour.

After returning to the police station, Wang Dengming found Sensi playing with a small wax figure.

"Didn't you say you wanted me to throw it in the trash?"

"This is a top-notch work of art, how about giving it to me?"

"It's a woman, you don't know how to appreciate it."

As soon as Wang Dengming came back, Heleni came to look for him.

"Sheriff, Fowlerson's investigation is like an investigator. When will we get the body back?"

Sensi: "Helene, can you leave out the dead body, where's our lunch?"

Heleni was talking to Wang Dengming wearing an apron, and she was still holding a cooking shovel in her hand.
