A Beautiful Comic Life Beginning with a Killer

Chapter 85 The King Exposed (Please Subscribe!!)

Looking at the scene displayed on the monitor on the tablet in his hand, George's expression became weird again.

Especially when he saw the black figure plunge into the Hudson River without looking back after jumping off the car, his expression was beyond shock.

WTF?

Although there is no way to be 100% sure that the black figure jumping out of the car in this surveillance is Hawke, the license plate in the surveillance is very clear.

George is sure that if such monitoring is shown in court, the probability of this evidence being accepted by the jury is hardly ten percent.

Is it really not him?

wrong!

A thought came to George's mind, and then out of the corner of his eye he once again saw Hawke, who was sitting on the interrogation chair across from him, showing a playful expression to him again in his eyes, and instantly dismissed the idea.

damn it.

This guy must be King.

George took a deep breath, handed the tablet in his hand to Beckett, stared at Hawke on the opposite side, and said to Beckett: "Let the forensics department call the 08:30 to 09 p.m. :30, this car passed all the videos, and verified the authenticity of the video content."

This surveillance video must be fake.

George believes that as long as the video is identified, it will be proven.

Beckett was taken aback.

Although Beckett didn't know what happened that she didn't know, it seemed that George was 100% sure that Hawke was the King they were looking for.

but……

Beckett looked at Hawke who was sitting in the interrogation chair opposite. At any time, she believed in the intuition and judgment of her colleagues, especially the intuition and judgment of the old police detective George.

But not this time.

Beckett motioned for George to follow her out of the interrogation room.

"George, you mean, this surveillance video has been tampered with?"

"Correct."

"But he's just a high school student."

"If he is King, then he has this ability."

really.

Hearing these words, Beckett thought to himself, looked at George, who insisted that Hawke was King, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but said, "George, are you really sure that he is King?"

George said in a deep voice, "Yes."

"evidence?"

"Too many coincidences."

"No, I mean..."

Beckett shook his head and looked at George: "If he is not Gwen's boyfriend, are you still so sure that he is King?"

Dads love their daughters by their side.

Especially a daughter slave.

In order to prevent outsiders from snatching his daughter from him, he can do any unimaginable things.

And George is a well-known daughter slave, for his own daughter, he is the kind of ultimate daughter slave who can even take his own life.

The most important thing.

Beckett once took over a case where a slave father of his daughter killed a random passer-by in order to prevent his daughter from getting married, and then blamed his daughter's boyfriend.

and so……

Beckett thought for a while, and said to George: "It feels to me now that you are no longer inferring the result from the evidence, but inferring the evidence from the result."

In any case, his detection process must first find evidence, and then draw a conclusion.

But right now?
At least in Beckett's view, although there are too many coincidences in Hawke, there is no evidence that can be directly related to King. Under such circumstances, George is still so sure that Hawke is King, how can this be? Look, some of them are not in compliance with the regulations, and some of them have a little bit of personal grievances.

Hearing these words, and looking at the expression on Beckett's face, George said in a deep voice, "He is King."

"evidence."

"..."

George didn't speak.

He did not.

At least, as Beckett said, he does not have any evidence that can stand on the stage and go to court to convince the jury.

Can……

My hunch was right.

"Jingle Bell!"

"……Hey."

Beckett connected the phone in his hand, listened to the voice on the phone, and nodded: "Okay, I understand, send the things to the forensics department as soon as possible for identification."

Done.

Beckett hung up the phone and looked at George: "Ryan called. I found a set of wet clothes in Hawke's room and bathroom. I have sent Ryan to the forensics department. From now on , what Hawke said is the same as the evidence we have.”

George frowned.

next second.

George turned around, pushed open the door of the interrogation room with a bang, looked at Hawke who was sitting on the interrogation chair inside, and said in a deep voice, "Why did you jump into the Hudson River after you jumped out of the car?"

Hawke, who was wondering what his future father-in-law might do, looked at George who opened the door and said suddenly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Because... between two points, the straight line is the shortest?"

George: "..."

Do not ask.

The question is, between two points, the straight line is the shortest. If you take the main road, then you need to cross a bridge and make a big circle to get home.

But if you go by water, you can save at least half an hour's journey, swim across the Hudson River, go ashore, and walk a small alley to get home.

The most important thing.

From the Hudson River to the home, there is no surveillance during this period.

Giant farmers only need to modify a surveillance video.

Hawk smiled, and gave the reason why he jumped into the river and swam home, and looked at George: "Also, I drank alcohol last night and swam back, and I was able to sober up by the way, Detective Stacey, without that According to the law, I can't swim home."

"..."

This reason...

George stared deeply at Hawk who looked up and smiled at him explaining. He could clearly feel the undisguised provocative gaze in this smile.

Yes, I am King, you guessed it right, but do you have proof?
"I'll find evidence."

"random."

Hawke smiled slightly, spread his hands, leaned against the chair, looked at George with the expression "I will catch you" written all over his face, and said indifferently: "I am also looking forward to Detective Stacey, what kind of evidence, to prove that I am King."

George squeezed his hands tightly.

at this time.

"Beckett!"

Esposito's voice sounded outside. Esposito walked to the interrogation corridor, looked at Beckett standing at the door of the interrogation room, and said excitedly, "We found King."

Beckett, who was about to open the door to enter the interrogation room, paused.

George, who was looking at Hawke in the interrogation room, also heard this sentence and couldn't help turning his head to look.

next second.

With a swish, George returned his gaze to Hawke.

Hawke smiled, very brightly.

5 minute later.

George, Beckett, and Esposito walked into the small meeting room.

"Where did the surveillance film King."

"At the door of Captain America's house."

"what?"

"Captain America Memorial."

Esposito corrected his language, then sat down next to the computer, and after a while of operation, clicked on the important monitoring data sent by the forensics department just now: "It's called out."

George and Beckett looked directly at the screen.

into the eye.

The monitor installed at the entrance of the Captain America Steve Rogers Memorial Hall appeared directly on the screen. In the screen, King, wearing sunglasses, holding a gun in one hand and a phone in the other, appeared in the monitor screen, looking up, expressionless. Watching the monitor, and then, under the gaze of the monitor screen, slowly took off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.

moment.

His face was no longer covered, and he was unreservedly under the camera, revealing his original appearance very frankly.

the man.

over 30 years old.

fair complexion.

The appearance is unremarkable!

next second.

King, who took off his sunglasses, raised his gun directly, only to see a pinch of flames appear on the screen, and then, snowflakes covered the entire screen.

Esposito said excitedly at the side: "Our people have already been monitoring over there and found the warhead. The forensics department has done an expedited pairing, and it has been proved that the warhead is the same as the King's warhead we collected before. are consistent."

Beckett raised his eyebrows: "Great, Esposito, put the photo into the system and see if it can be recognized. By the way, send a copy of the photo to the Jersey City Police Department and ask them to help in the system. Identify it inside."

Esposito stood up: "Got it!"

soon.

Esposito left the conference room.

Beckett immediately looked at George, who was frowning and thinking after watching the surveillance, and said, "It seems that your guess is wrong. If this person is King, Hawke doesn't look like this person no matter what. .”

age.

appearance.

King, an ordinary-looking killer who is around 30 years old, does not look like Hawke, who is only 17 years old this year, in his prime, and looks super handsome.

George didn't speak, but asked someone to replay the surveillance video.

While re-watching the surveillance video, George said to Beckett next to him, "Last night, I asked Hawke a question."

Beckett looked at George.

"what?"

"I asked him if he was the killer King."

"...he answered yes?"

"No."

George shook his head: "I gave him a multiple-choice question, yes or no, and your response was also his answer, either yes or no, but he gave a third choice."

"The third kind?"

"He said, do you have evidence?"

"This……"

Beckett frowned when he heard this, and looked at George: "Is there any problem? He is hostile to the police station. Such an answer is normal."

George shook his head: "Besides, it's because he is my daughter's boyfriend, and because he also knew that there was a killer coming to kill Jill and Gwen that night."

Beckett frowned: "Wait a minute, he knows, when?"
