LA Detective

Chapter 246 Obsession (five thousand)
The bartender said, "Mr. Ronald Bunbert, our boss has heard about George and sympathizes with what happened to him. I would like to invite you to talk to him later."

Ronald showed an exaggerated expression, "Guys, did you hear that? The famous boss Rogge wants to chat with me.

It's my pleasure. "

After speaking, Ronald stood up and followed the bartender Archie out of the front hall of the bar.

Led by the bartender Archie, the two walked all the way back to the back door of the bar.

At this moment, Ronald seemed to feel something was wrong, "Archie, didn't you say you want to see Mr. Roger? Where are we going?"

"Yes, Mr. Rogge is waiting for you at the back door."

Hearing this, Ronald turned around and was about to run, but was grabbed by Archie, "It's impolite to break an appointment without a reason, and the boss will be angry."

Archie opened the back door and pushed Ronald out.

Ronald looked at the dimly lit back alley, where three strong black men were waiting for him outside the door, walking towards him eagerly, Ronald took two steps back instinctively, "I... came to see Mr. Rogge of."

His response was a brutal beating from three strong black men.

"what……"

Ronald wailed and howled after being beaten, "Why did you beat me? If you have something to say, why do you want to do this?

Killing people, help me. "

Still no response, just beating.

They didn't stop until Ronald was beaten with blood all over his face and unable to get up on the ground.

The bartender Archie walked over, "Ronald, do you know what's wrong?"

"Boss Roger said I was wrong, I was wrong, but can you tell me what's wrong? I am willing to change."

The bartender asked, "Is that wad of twenty dollars today yours?"

"Yes."

"Why lie to me with fake money? Do you think I'm a fool?"

"Fake money? It's not fake money. There must be some misunderstanding."

The bartender took out a twenty-dollar note, "This is the money you gave me." The bartender tore it open and threw the note in Ronald's face.

Ronald picked up the blood-stained note, "fuck, how could it be a blank paper, that bastard George killed me." Afterwards, Ronald hugged the bartender's leg, "Please listen to my explanation, this is not mine I took the money from George’s house, and I didn’t know it was fake money, otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to do it even if I had ten guts.”

"Where did George get the money?"

"I do not know."

"Pay off the arrears of the wine within half a month, otherwise, you will die.

Understand? "

"I understand."

"Can it be done?"

"Yes, I can."

"Hey, what are you doing?"

A voice came from the shadow of the back alley, and Xiao Hei and Luke came out, still wearing police badges.

"Two police officers, he accidentally fell down, and we are about to help him up."

"It's not easy to fall." Luke walked closer and asked Ronald, "Did you fall by yourself?"

"That's right, I fell by myself, I fell by myself, thanks to them helping me up."

"Good, there are still many good people in this world."

"Officer, I want to call the police." The bartender said.

"What happened?"

"This guy spent hundreds of dollars at our bar, all in counterfeit money."

Luke looked at Ronald, "Did you use counterfeit money?"

Ronald glanced at the bartender and nodded, "Yes, I used it."

"Where did it come from?"

"From my brother's house."

"Who is your brother?"

"George Balbert."

"Did you know it's illegal to use counterfeit money?"

"I knew, but I didn't know those were counterfeit bills, I swear."

"Whether you know it or not, you are using counterfeit money, come with us."

"Okay, I'll go with you." Ronald readily agreed. It's safer to go with the police than to stay here.

"Nonono, this is not okay, you'd better go to the bar to wash your face, we will wait for you at the front door of the bar."

"I don't need to wash my face, it's fine." Ronald didn't want to go into the bar anymore.

The little gangster said, "It's not up to you to decide. If you don't clean your stinky face, don't even think about getting into my car."

"Two police officers, wrap it on me, and I will help him wash his face." The bartender volunteered.

"You're such a nice, helpful guy, no wonder your pub is doing so well.

See you soon, Ronald. "

Luke and Xiao Hei returned to the car.

Luke asked, "Your friend hasn't found out about Derrick's whereabouts yet?"

"There is no news yet. There are many black teenagers who come out to hang out at the age of [-] or [-]. It is not easy to find."

Luke thought for a while, "Then add two more, this kid spends a lot of money and probably carries a lot of twenty-dollar bills."

……

Luke and Xiao Hei escorted Ronald Bunbert back to the police station.

He stated his conjecture.

The whole thing is also tied together.

The reason why Kunel, who was originally in financial distress, became rich was because he accidentally obtained a counterfeit banknote, and it was precisely because of the counterfeit banknote that Kunel attracted the pursuit of George and Jamie. .

And Kunel's good friend Derrick has something to do with the money. Derrick was also hunted down by the two, and his life and death are uncertain.

Later, after taking drugs and drinking, George was stimulated and was arrested when he went to the supermarket to buy things with counterfeit money.

Luke locked George's suspicion through the criminal investigation sketch portrait.

Later, Jamie asks his girlfriend who works in the hospital to assassinate George, just in time to be run over by Luke and Black.

Of course, these are only conjectures, and the important thing is to find relevant evidence for conviction.

"boom."

The door of the conference room opened, and Matthew walked into the conference room, "Guys, you should see this."

Matthew turned on the TV in the conference room and played back a piece of news.

"Hello viewers, I'm Pari Jones, reporter for CFP TV, and I'm reporting an urgent news.

I think everyone is no stranger to the name of George Bunbert.

Our CFP TV station has also been paying attention to his situation. According to multiple investigations, we have received a sad news.

Last night, George's medical treatment failed and he had already left this world.

That's right, I don't want to believe this sad news, but the reality is so cruel.

Lapd arrested George in the name of a crime. Let's not say whether George is guilty or not, but the suspect also has the right to life, and lapd has no reason to deprive him of it.

In order to avoid more similar things from happening, our CFP TV station will continue to pay attention to and report on this matter.

I'm reporter Pari Jones. "

Jackson pointed to the TV and said, "I know this woman, she seems to know Marcus..."

Luke smiled, "Detective Marcus, your girlfriend is going to be famous."

Marcus' face was a little ugly, "Isn't she my girlfriend? It's just one of my many suitors. It's not my dish at all."

The deputy team reminded, "Stay away from this girl, she will kill you sooner or later."

Matthew said, "Is George dead? Why don't I know."

Luke didn't take it seriously, "She's just sensationalizing the hot news, there's no need to take it seriously.

George isn't dead, that's good. "

Susan reminded, "Guys, be careful these days.

George's death may cause quite a stir and trouble, please be safe. "

CFP Television was the first major news organization to report George's death, and the news was quickly picked up by other outlets.

George's death was hot news.

It has aroused great attention and repercussions in the whole country and even the whole world.

As the first reporter to broadcast this news, Pari Jones also gained a lot of attention in the industry.

Although Luke had prepared in advance, the speed of the spread of this case and the wide influence of it still exceeded his estimation.

Also surpassed his level.

Like Red said, there may be other driving forces behind this case.

But this level is beyond the reach of the current Luke.

Therefore, Luke still focused on the case.

……

Padden Motel.

This motel is located just outside Los Angeles, off Highway [-].

The motel covers a large area, with three floors, a convenience store, a swimming pool, a gym, and a gas station. It is considered a relatively high-end motel.

In room 305 of the hotel.

There lived a teenage black boy. The room was a bit messy. It looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for a few days. There were a lot of household garbage on the bed and the floor. The black teenager was sitting at the table playing computer games, and there was a Put cola, potato chips, chocolate and other snacks.

"Fuck! Are you stupid? Can you play? Milk me!"

"Dong dong..."

There was a knock on the door outside.

The black boy stood up nervously, "Who's outside?"

"Room Service."

"I didn't order room service."

"Our hotel has an event today, and every guest can get a souvenir."

"I don't need a souvenir, you can go."

"Crack..."

At this moment, there was a sound of swiping the door card.

"Fuck! Come again."

The black boy turned and ran to the balcony.

The door was opened, and a black-haired man and a black man broke in, it was Luke and Xiao Hei.

With Luke's reminder, Xiao Hei increased the search conditions and obtained Derrick's clues.

After the two rushed into the house, they found a black boy suspected of Derrick running to the balcony.

Luke had observed in advance that there was no other passage on the balcony, and this kid couldn't escape.

However, the next scene scared both Luke and Xiao Hei.

The black boy quickly ran to the balcony, stepped on the stool with one foot, stepped on the wall of the balcony with the other, and jumped directly from the third floor.

Xiao Hei's eyes widened, "fuck!

Do you fucking think you're Spider-Man? "

However, the imaginary scream did not come, replaced by a 'plop' sound of falling into the water.

Luke and Xiao Hei went to the balcony to look down, and found that the little black boy just jumped into the swimming pool downstairs, and gave them a middle finger.

Derrick stayed in the room for more than just playing games. He had already calculated the escape route. The balcony was some distance away from the swimming pool, and he needed a run-up to jump into the swimming pool. The two policemen were not familiar with the situation, and it was impossible to run up as soon as they came up. With this The time difference was enough for him to escape.

Derrick swam to the swimming pool, and when he was about to come out of the swimming pool, he suddenly felt a figure flash by, and then he was stepped on top of his head and pushed into the water again.

"Gulu Gulu..." Derrick's breathing was disturbed, and he took a few sips of water, choking him so much that he just rolled his eyes.

Derrick waved his hands desperately again, swam to the edge of the pool, and lifted him out of the pool with a big hand.

Apart from Luke and Xiao Hei, Raymond and Jenny came to see Derrick this time.

It was Raymond who lifted him out of the water just now.

Derrick lay on the ground panting heavily, "Who are you?"

Jenny flashed her police badge, "lapd."

"Are you the same as the two lapds I saw last time?"

Luke also came over and said, "If it was, you would have died long ago instead of being caught by us."

"There are four of you, I don't accept it."

Luke said, "We are here to arrest people, not to impress you."

"Why did you arrest me?"

"Just because you used a lot of counterfeit money." Luke took out a banknote, tore it in half and threw it at him.

Derrick sighed, "How did you find me? These counterfeit coins were found?"

"Are you admitting to using counterfeit money?"

"I admit it." Derrick spread his hands, there are more counterfeit money in his room, he can't admit it.

"Where did the counterfeit money come from?"

"Pick it up."

"Where did I pick it up?"

"I can't remember either."

"Who else has counterfeit money besides you?"

"I picked it up alone."

"Have you ever given counterfeit money to anyone else?"

"No."

"Do you know Queenie Bolt?"

Derrick hesitated, "Yes, he is my friend."

"Does he have counterfeit money?"

"I don't know, probably not."

Luke saw it, and the other party still had a fluke mentality, as if he didn't know that Kunel was dead.

Luke took out a photo of Quinnell being killed, "Although it is a bit cruel, I think you should know."

"What happened to Kunel? Damn it, he's dead!

Who killed him?

Is it lapd? "

"According to our investigation, it is likely to be the two men who chased and killed you that night."

"Aren't they lapds?"

"No, they're fake."

"Not only did they kill Quinil, they also wanted to kill you.

You should be glad that we found you first, if those two people found you first.

You may be dead. "

"Damn it, I told him not to go anymore, but he just didn't listen, this idiot, he killed himself for those counterfeit coins." Derrick was very emotional.

"What happened? You explain things clearly so we can help you, understand?

Otherwise, you are likely to be hunted down again. "

Seeing that Derrick was a little shaken, Luke and Xiao Hei took him to the hotel room for questioning, and Raymond and Jenny were responsible for searching the hotel room where he lived.

After all, Derrick was only a teenager, and when he heard the news that his good friend had been killed, he was nervous and broke down.

Xiao Hei got him a glass of water, "Dude, relax, as long as you make things clear, we will cover you.

We catch the bad guys, and you're safe. "

"Some time ago, Kunel and I went to an abandoned warehouse to play, and we found that there were many machines in the warehouse, and we were very curious.

At first, we thought it was a printing machine, and wondered if it could be sold for money.

Later, we discovered that there was another compartment in the warehouse with many shelves, and one of the shelves contained bundles of twenty-dollar bills.

There are ten bundles of banknotes in a bundle, each bundle of one hundred bills, with a face value of twenty dollars, and a bundle is 2 dollars.

There were at least a dozen bundles of banknotes on that shelf, and both of us were stunned, never seeing so many banknotes.

The two of us were also terrified. Knowing that the money might not come from the right place, and then thinking about the printing press outside, we guessed that these money might be counterfeit.

After knowing that it was counterfeit money, the two of us were not so interested, and each only took a bundle.

If you can spend it, you can spend it; if you can’t, it’s just playing.

Later, we tried to spend a few times, but no one found out that it was fake money. We became more and more courageous, and regretted that we took less.

A few days later, Kunel contacted me, saying that he wanted to go to that warehouse again, this time bring some extra money, and everyone would be rich.

Hearing his words, I felt very complicated, and I was a little moved, but I was more afraid.

I know very well that this kind of thing is inseparable. Counterfeit currency is also money. This is a terrible business. If caught by counterfeiters, you will die.

I advised him not to be a fool and not to go to that warehouse again, but he said he was out of money and needed more. "Derrick showed a helpless look, and said guiltily,
"I should have advised him, if I hadn't let it go, he wouldn't have died.

it's all my fault. "

Luke asked, "The two of you each received 2 US dollars. This is not a small amount. How could it be spent in a few days?"

"I also asked, but at first he refused to tell the truth, but later I was anxious to tell the truth." Derrick sighed, "He only spent a few thousand dollars himself, and gave the rest to his mother. "

The little underworld asked, "Isn't Kunil abandoned by his mother? Why did he still give the money to his mother?"

"Quinnell doesn't believe he was abandoned, he thinks the foster care center took away custody of her mother and believes she loves him.

He has always missed his mother and hopes to live with her, which is why he cannot integrate into a foster family.

He has been in touch with his mother, and he expects his mother to take him up and raise him, but his mother refuses for various reasons every time.

Either she was incapable, or the foster care center didn't agree, or she was too busy working, and when she earned enough money, she moved to Los Angeles to live with Queen.

It's a similar excuse every time, once or twice is okay, but if there are too many excuses, a fool won't believe it.

But, Quinnell believed.

After he knew that the money could be spent, the first thing he thought of was his mother, and he mailed her a sum of money, asking her to come to Los Angeles to play, the best hotel, board and lodging, and buy various gifts.

Moreover, his mother came with her boyfriend, and he also spent thousands of dollars on his mother's boyfriend.

When I heard that, I thought he was a big fool.

Sure enough, after his money was spent, his mother followed her boyfriend away.

She is a bitch.

Kunel was disappointed, not because she was disappointed with her mother, but because she felt that she didn't have enough money.

In his words, if he has enough money, he can keep his mother by his side and let her live with him.

Never part again.

At that time, I thought he was crazy! "
