Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 182 The target person has been found

The photo freezes on the scene of the white-haired gentleman smiling, the flames licking the muzzle of the gun, a bit dizzying into the red eyes, turning the polite and polite smile into arrogance.

This is not an illusion.

Judy looked at the photo taken from the mission recorder of the FBI suit. She sat on a chair, resting her chin on her hand, staring.

There was silence in the conference room, everyone was silently staring at the polite but arrogant face in the photo.

"The good news is that this gentleman, like many genius criminals, is a little arrogant and doesn't bother to hide himself," Judy said. "The bad news is that we are obviously the 'dumb police officers'."

She pressed the remote control and turned on the projector, "This is the vehicle he left in,"

A photo of a silver sports car appeared on the projector, and another photo of a middle-aged man appeared. "The owner of the vehicle is this gentleman. He is a businessman from across the country. He usually likes antique diamonds and everything worth appreciating." , came to New York only in the past month. According to him, he did not know the 'owner' and the car was stolen."

Before anyone could speak, Judy said, "His lawyer is here."

Now that the lawyer is here, the interrogation can no longer be carried out, and even the polite questioning can be given up. As long as he is smarter, the businessman will not say anything.

Some of the FBI agents who wanted to speak closed their mouths angrily.

Judy pressed the remote control again, and two more photos of people were projected below the photos of the vehicle and the owner. The one on the left was a waiter in a black uniform who looked to be in his 20s. The photo on the right was taken after the capture. The enlarged picture shows a man who looks to be in his 40s, driving a silver sports car, with only the side of his face exposed.

"This gentleman is the waiter who came into contact with the 'Master'," she lightly introduced the young man on the left. "At present, apart from helping the 'Master' check into the hotel, he has no other criminal past on the surface,"

Another twist, "However, his biological mother and stepfather died three years ago, and the causes of death were different."

Needless to say, the FBI agents who had read the information and knew the past situation knew clearly: this was a criminal who fit well with the 'master's' usual style.

Judy introduced the photo on the right, "This is the driver of the vehicle. His detailed information has not been found yet. We have checked his information in the criminal database."

"After reviewing the traces at the hotel scene, the 'owner' checked into the hotel five days ago," she paused, "He left important traces in the hotel,"

The light of the projector changed several times, and several photos disappeared. Only the photo of the arrogant smile that was physically pinned to the top of the curtain remained, and photos of a coffee table and an open newspaper appeared on the curtain.

It was a newspaper published yesterday. The sub-section published a murder case. Because the case had not been solved yet, some details of the case had not been released. What was converted into black and white was only some surface information that could be released, which accounted for about [-]% of the total. Two-thirds of a newspaper page.

There are several red traces drawn on it, which are red lines and red circles.

Some red lines appear below the text, such as the place of death of the deceased, and some red lines appear in the middle of the text, such as the murder weapon speculated by the police, with the presumed 'rope' directly crossed out.

A red circle appeared in the police's speculation about the murderer, enclosing the word 'male' and placing a question mark next to it.

This is……

Most of the FBI looked at the newspaper intently, focusing on the parts with traces first, and then hurriedly read through this ordinary murder case that they were not responsible for, and their brows furrowed almost simultaneously.

"This case was just transferred to us and merged with a serial murder case being investigated next door." Judy turned the remote control and glanced at her team members, "What do you think this means?"

Someone raised their hand, not sure, "Uh, sorry, I want to confirm, are these marks connected to 'the case is merged with a serial murder case we are investigating'?"

Was the case originally going to be consolidated, or was it consolidated after the FBI agents who were pursuing the case saw traces of it in the newspapers?
The end result of both is the same, but the process is different, and the nature is completely different. "Good question," Judy turned the remote control again, "Without this newspaper, maybe in a few weeks, this murder case would also be brought to us."

The questioner was even more uncertain, "So, this criminal is helping our FBI...?"

When he said the last few pronunciations, he lowered his voice uncertainly.

The FBI in a suit who participated in the operation said: "It was a provocation."

He had changed into a clean suit and was looking at the photo on the curtain, looking into the smiling red eyes through the flames, "It's a provocation to our FBI."

Other FBI agents may only speak in a speculative tone, but the FBI in Suit has the qualifications to speak in a positive tone.

"When I suddenly looked back at him," he said very seriously, "he was definitely laughing at me."

He was careless and condescending, and didn't take the FBI suit seriously at all. He was like teasing a puppy in a frivolous way.

So I would laugh and play with the pistol lighter.

"He didn't feel that the FBI's pursuit would pose a threat to him at all."

Regarding the subordinate who had the misfortune to face the gun directly and almost died heroically, although he did not really die heroically, but his legs were weak and he lost some face, Judy's tone slowed down a little, "Yes, it is a provocation."

"Mr. Akai also holds this view. He believes that this criminal is issuing a 'challenge' to the FBI, and believes that this serial murder case should be solved as soon as possible while pursuing."

The phone on the table rang. She lowered her head to check and quickly raised her eyebrows, "The silver sports car has been found."

The silver sports car was parked in the parking lot of a restaurant. The surveillance in the parking lot was still intact, and it completely recorded the scene of the car driving into the parking lot.

The car is no longer open. After the roof is displayed, it looks like a normal luxury car, and the people in the car can no longer be seen at a glance.

So there's a problem: the person driving the car is the waiter at the restaurant.

Many high-end restaurant service staff are polite and well-versed in a variety of skills, one of which is driving guests' cars to the parking lot.

According to the waiter, when he took the car from the guest, there was only the driver in the car, and there was no white-haired gentleman in a suit.

Judy put out the surveillance at the entrance of the restaurant that Shuichi Akai had called up: At noon, a white car parked at the entrance of the restaurant. The driver got out of the car, handed the key to the waiter, and quickly walked into the restaurant. It took more than ten minutes. Afterwards, he walked out as if nothing had happened.

"He disappeared," she said thoughtfully, "left on the road..."

"Then where will it be now?"

Within a few seconds of her frowning in thought, Judy's phone vibrated.

She lowered her eyes and saw the brief message from Shuichi Akai: [The target person has been found. 】
