FBI detective

Chapter 833 Double Eagle Gold Yuan
Treasure hunting, adventure, seabed, shipwreck, ancient gold coins.

When they put these words together and heard Winslow's words, Lacey, Chenelle, and Mona's eyes lit up, and Michelle and Roan also showed interested expressions.

Winslow opened the file and said:
"The trace inspection report shows that these nine gold coins are Double Eagle Gold Dollars, and then..."

"What?!"

Winslow had just said half of his words when a surprised female voice suddenly rang out. Luo An, Mona and others turned their heads and found that the person who screamed was actually Michelle.

Chenille and Lacey were very surprised that Michelle, who had "detached herself from low-level physical interests", had been very stable in her emotions most of the time while working in the special investigation team for such a long time.

No matter how difficult the problem was, Michelle's first reaction was not to complain or break down, but to analyze and solve the problem.

Scenes like today's exclamation were indeed quite rare for Michelle.

Seeing everyone looking at her in surprise, Michelle was a little embarrassed. She smoothed her hair and explained seriously:
"The Double Eagle Gold Dollar was a federal currency issued during a certain period of the last century. It has a very high collection value. A gold coin minted in 1787 was once auctioned for more than $.

In 03-04, a family in Philadelphia found ten "Double Eagle" coins in the safe of their deceased father.

They then contacted the mint and sent the coins for appraisal.

The Mint determined that the coins were authentic, but refused to return them on the grounds that they had been stolen from state property.

The family angrily filed a lawsuit, and the federal government said that they could not prove that they obtained the gold coins through legal means, so they had no ownership and the gold coins were confiscated.

"..." x5
Winslow and Lacey were speechless, Mona and Chenille looked at him with disdain, but Luo An was not too surprised.

After all, it is a beacon for the world, and they have the final say on when the light comes on.

After Michelle finished her brief account, she looked at Winslow with great interest and asked:
"What did the Trace Inspection Department say? In what year were these Double Eagle Gold Dollars produced?"

"Um, the Trace Examination Department doesn't know either."

Winslow spread his hands, indicating that the Trace Examination Department, like the previous counterfeit coins, had no experts in antique gold coins.

They can only confirm that the gold coin is a "Double Eagle Gold Dollar", and the specific minting time may require asking a relevant appraiser to know.

Luo An waved his hand to signal Winslow to continue with the original words. Winslow nodded and said:

"The Trace Inspection Department said that no matter where these "Double Eagle Gold Dollars" were found, it means that there is definitely a very large shipwreck there.

Along with these "Double Eagle Gold Dollars", there is a high probability that there will be a huge amount of gold and other treasures. "

Luo An frowned slightly, took the interrogation record from Mona, and said:
“Anatoly just said that in addition to these gold coins, they also found some gold bars, which were only stolen.

Those gold bars were engraved with words such as “kelloo…139NN…”

Winslow, take this information to the trace examination department and see if they can find out which shipwreck it is. "

"I'll be there right away."

Winslow nodded and immediately turned to leave the office area. Lacey looked at the interrogation record in Luo An's hand and asked:
"Luo An, did Anatoly find any clues?"

"In fact, he laid bare the circumstances behind this case."

Roan smiled, handed the interrogation record to Lacey, and briefly described Anatoly's experience.

After listening to Anatoly's story, Chenier and Michelle looked at each other. Lacey was silent for a few seconds and said:
"So, this case is not a case of counterfeit money, but actually a case of robbery?"

"In a sense, you could say that."

Luo An nodded and took a sip of coffee.

The story behind this case is not complicated. Anatoly, Benson, Leon and others were on the sea, driving a treasure hunting ship to search for shipwrecks, and successfully found these "double eagle gold coins" and gold bars. They planned to change to a larger ship to salvage the shipwreck, but the news leaked. Not long after landing, they met a gangster who wanted to kidnap them and go treasure hunting themselves.

"I have a question."

At this point, Lacey raised her hand and asked in confusion:

"I can understand that when a gang is robbing another gang, they will run away if they can't win.

Benson and Leon want to divert the blame and drag other people into it, and I can understand their thinking.

Benson later gave the counterfeit money to Anatoly and asked him to take the money and run away, which means that Benson probably knew that someone was making counterfeit money in the factory in the suburbs.

But this kind of information should be kept secret, how did Benson know it?"

“I haven’t thought this through.”

Mona nodded, agreeing with Lacey's words, and then added:
“Also, I have another question.

I don't quite understand why Benson and Leon trust Anatoly so much.

They asked Anatoly to keep the gold coins, gave him counterfeit banknotes, and asked him to escape in the chaos, while the two of them stayed behind to cover his retreat.

Since they have already encountered a situation where gangs are robbing each other, they should have had trust issues among themselves.”

"Is it possible that Anatoly's mental state is not very good?"

Michelle gave her own guess and said:

"Anatoly had some mental problems, so they both believed that he was fine."

"..."

Mona, Chenelle and Lacey looked at Michelle speechlessly. They wanted to complain but didn't know what to say, because her guess did make sense on some level.

"For the first question, we should have a chance to catch Leon and the others and ask them face to face. As for the second question..."

At this moment, Luo An beside him shook his head. He showed a report to the four people and said:
“Here’s the real reason.”

Lacey quickly reached out to take the paper. Mona, Chenille and Michelle quickly turned their eyes and saw that it was a medical examination report of Anatoly.

Ordinary abrasions, excessive blood loss, fractures, etc. were swept away. The four girls continued to look down, and words such as "genital warts" and "rectal mucosal injury" appeared in front of them.

"..." x4
The four women fell silent for a moment. They had all learned some basic knowledge during FBI training and understood the meaning behind these words.

Especially Lacey, she can proudly say that no one in this office knows more than her.

Luo An rubbed his temples. During the interrogation just now, when talking about Benson, Leon and women, Anatoly had the feeling of "jealousy" in his mind many times.

Luo An initially thought he had guessed wrong, but after leaving the interrogation room and carefully reading the medical report, he remembered what Anatoly had said before, that their treasure-hunting ships would drift on the sea for more than a month or even three months. In addition, Anatoly was very thin and his face was not bad...

Luo An did not comment on this. There are more than a hundred genders in the Federation, and male Tong is nothing at all. This is called freedom.

Lacey put the report aside, and the girls tacitly stopped discussing it. Chenier thought for a moment and asked:

"Luo An, what do we do next?"

"Next, we'll leave Washington, D.C., and take a look south."

Luo An folded his arms across his chest and smiled:
"Go to Atlanta and experience the local customs and culture."
