American TV series Detective's Daily Life

"We never target anyone."

Chuck said calmly: "I mean if the difference in IQ can give people a sense of bullying and retaliation, then everyone here will be suspicious."

The police detectives who were laughing at the scene suddenly stopped laughing.

"So you're saying you're smarter than us all?"

The handsome young police detective Jack Peralta looked around at his colleagues and playfully asked the question that everyone shared.

"This shouldn't be a question."

Chuck corrected seriously.

"..."

Detective Jack Peralta looked at Chuck's calm expression and was stunned.

For an ordinary person, if he asked this sentence, the other party would panic and defend under the pressure of everyone, especially the police detectives, but the other party obviously did not accept this trick.

"Okay, Detective Peralta, the detective asked us to invite Dr. Wolf here to be a consultant. It's important to handle the case."

The beautiful Latina police detective next to him smiled and answered: "Dr. Wolf, I am Amy Santiago. I am in charge of this case. Because the victim's daily life involves many mathematical problems, I invite you to come and help us analyze the victimization." Let’s see if we can find any clues about the remains of the deceased.”

"good."

Now that the annoying detective was no longer bothering him, Chuck didn't continue to reply and got down to business.

The NYPD is the law enforcement agency with the largest number of people in New York. According to a veteran bureaucrat, numbers are power. The NYPD has very great power in New York. Naturally, this is not the first time that Chuck has dealt with them.

Even the troubled detective Jake Peralta is a familiar figure.

Because even though the other party's nickname is "The Annoying Detective", he is still very good at handling cases. Even among the NYPD with a large number of personnel, he is one of the best. If you include unruly, he is among the best.

While looking through the items collected by the NYPD, Chuck asked, "Have you asked his colleagues, relatives and friends?"

"Of course I asked."

The annoying police detective Jack Peralta said with a smile: "In addition to mathematics in his work and life, there are also lottery tickets and treasure hunts. You guys, mathematicians with super high IQs, are also tireless in making money."

"Treasure hunt?"

Chuck looked up and said, "You mean he also participated in the math scavenger hunt?"

"right."

Beautiful Latina police detective Amy Santiago nodded: "Dr. Wolfe, do you know this mathematical treasure hunt game?"

"Well, I've been playing too lately."

Chuck nodded and continued to look through the items collected by the NYPD.

"Is there any reward?"

Detective Amy Santiago wondered.

"One million dollar prize."

Chuck said.

"A million dollar bonus?"

Amy Santiago was stunned: "Are you mathematicians so luxurious in playing games? I think we have found the motive for the crime."

"That's not it."

Chuck shook his head.

"Why?"

Detective Shenfan smiled and said: "Because you are also involved, you don't want us to investigate this clue and disturb your fun?"

"Yes, and also wrong."

Chuck brings out the classic Western rhetoric.

"...What is right and what is wrong?"

The annoyed detective asked.

"Because it's right that I'm involved."

Chuck said calmly: "It would be wrong if we don't want you to investigate this clue and disturb our fun. It's not that we're afraid of disturbing our fun, but it's meaningless to pursue this clue."

"Why doesn't it make sense?"

Detective Shenfan retorted: "This is a bonus of 1 million US dollars. This amount of money is enough to kill 10,000 people on the street. Or are you mathematicians all rich people and don't look down on this 1 million?"

"It's only 1 million when you get it."

Chuck looked at him: "How can money that is destined to be unavailable become the motive for murder?"

"How do you know he can't get it?"

Detective Shenfan slapped his forehead: "Oh, I understand, because you also participated, and you, the most powerful mathematician, joined in, so this bonus must be yours, not someone else's, so even if you want to kill someone In the fight for the bonus, should I kill you first?"

"It's the same sentence, it shouldn't be a question here."

Chuck said bluntly.

"Dr. Wolfe, do you have any other clues?"

Detective Amy Santiago was also a little speechless by Chuck's confidence and straightforwardness, but unlike the quarrelsome and annoying detective, her attitude was much gentler, and there must be two consultants specially invited by the detective. Brush's case involves mathematicians. Now they are confused and need professional help to sort out their clues.

"have!"

Chuck had already looked through the victim's objects collected by the NYPD: "Lottery tickets, the victim's colleagues said he liked lottery tickets, but there are no relevant research records here."

"Lottery?"

Detective Shenfan couldn't help laughing: "You want to say that the victim figured out how to win the lottery, and then was targeted for murder, and the research records were taken away by the murderer? I don't know much, so don't Lie to me, the lottery winning rate is only one in tens of millions, it is completely random, how is it possible to win the lottery through mathematical calculations?"

"Large-scale lotteries with great influence, such as Powerball and Mega Millions, have been designed by specialized personnel because of their wide distribution, so there are not many loopholes to exploit."

Chuck said calmly: "But there are various types of lotteries in the United States, and the local small lotteries issued in various states have different playing methods. Not all of them are logically strict, especially there is a chance of mathematical loopholes in some newly issued playing methods.

By studying the rules and conducting mathematical calculations, the theoretical winning rate can be increased from one in ten million to one in one thousand, which greatly improves the winning rate. Then based on the results, if you buy all the thousands of copies, you can theoretically guarantee that you will win the jackpot. .

Of course, the premise is that the publisher does not cheat, such as using delayed recording and broadcasting to announce the results.

Otherwise it would be useless for God to play.

As a lottery player who is proficient in mathematics, the victim must have records of mathematical calculations for various lottery tickets.

But there are no records here.

If you hadn't made a mistake in handling the case and failed to collect all the victim's belongings, then they must have been taken away by the murderer. "

"This must be it!"

Detective Amy Santiago's eyes lit up: "Everything we collected at the victim's home and office is here. There are no tickets from past lottery tickets in either place. The murderer can't be so boring as to take those expired lottery tickets that have no value." Take it away, and the murderer did this because he must be afraid that the lottery ticket stub will appear, which will arouse our suspicion and follow this clue."

Having said this, she looked teasingly at Detective Shenfan, who had not spoken much: "Detective Peralta, what do you think?"

"There is a certain truth to it, but the line of mathematical treasure hunting cannot be ruled out."

Detective Shenfan shrugged.

"I'm going to investigate the repeated winnings in various nearby lotteries now."

Detective Amy Santiago is excited to investigate.
