American TV series Detective's Daily Life

Chapter 306 The Rising Little Leonard: Ask me who my good friend is!

"I didn't kill him!"

Under the mayor's insistent gaze, the bald assistant could only look at the detective Chuck, who had long been rumored to be able to see into people's hearts.

"This is a lie."

Chuck said bluntly: "Is the reason why you killed him related to the ceremony?"

This time, the bald assistant didn't need to speak. The expression in his eyes fell on Chuck, and he already had the answer.

"I do not know what you're talking about."

The bald assistant simply looked at Chuck directly.

As the mayor's assistant, he has access to a lot of information, and coupled with his serious needs, he actually knows better than the average person about Detective Chuck's detection methods.

He knew that even though Chuck could detect whether others were lying through micro-expressions, knowing a lie was one thing, but guessing the specific content of the lie was another thing entirely.

So as long as he doesn't ask the right questions and find evidence based on the answers to those questions, he can still be safe.

"Do you have a video of the original ceremony?"

Chuck looked at the mayor.

"have."

The mayor nodded.

His assistants will record all the activities of attending the ceremony as part of their political achievements for publicity, and of course they will be archived.

"Dennis..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, the mayor knew something was wrong, so he picked up the phone and dialed the number of another assistant and asked her to turn on the video.

"How about you go back and take a look?"

The mayor suggested as soon as he saw the duration.

"No, the answer will be available soon."

Chuck watched directly at 10x speed.

The mayor looked at the completely unclear picture in the video and was shocked: "Can you really see it like this?"

"here!"

Chuck ignored him, watched for a moment, and then canceled Tenx Speed. The video showed the mayor giving a speech.

“This time capsule is a giant metal vacuum bottle, and the message inside will be left to our children’s children’s children.

Oh, I see our guest of honor is here.

One hundred years from now, our descendants will interpret what the world's oldest man looks like today.

I wrote a letter to future generations.

I had my family and staff do the same thing.

Finally, I also invited the oldest old man to write his life story, and I also included his copy.

I'm here to commit.

If you live another five years and I'm still in office, we'll dig this treasure out and add another page to your book.

what do you think?

See you in five years? "

In the video, the world's oldest man shook hands with the mayor: "This is a promise!"

"What's wrong with this?"

The mayor looked at Chuck in confusion.

"The secrets are all in this letter."

Chuck rewinded the video to the scene where the mayor was holding a letter from someone in his pocket, and pointed at the expression on the bald assistant's face as he took the letter out of his pocket.

"What secret?"

The mayor couldn't help but glance at the bald assistant.

"Probably evidence of a crime."

Chuck looked at the bald assistant: "Just take out the time capsule and you'll know."

"You have no court authority!"

The bald assistant couldn't bear it anymore and raised his voice. Seeing that the mayor's expression was a bit wrong, he persuaded in a low voice: "They have no court authorization and have no right to do this."

"I have!"

The mayor was silent for a few seconds and then said: "I agree to release the time capsule."

"Randy, take him with you."

Chuck pointed to the bald assistant.

"You have no right..."

The bald assistant was about to speak when he was interrupted by Randy: "No, we now suspect you are related to multiple murders and have the right to detain you."

Everyone came to the place where the time capsule was buried, dug out the time capsule, opened it, and took out the envelope belonging to the bald assistant.

After Randy opened it, he read out: "On December 2, 1989, I drove my car and killed Darren Foley. I will never forgive myself. Please God forgive me. Signed Dennis Can Burr.”

As he said that, he held the letter and shook with surprise: "This is a confession!"

"Darren Foley, 17, was killed three years ago in a hit-and-run accident."

Chuck said.

"Dennis..."

The mayor shook his head with disappointment, and then asked in confusion: "But why did you kill Miles Honings and the security guard."

"The reason is obvious."

Chuck reminded: “Yesterday was Dennis Honings’ 115th birthday, five years have passed, and you are still in office.

So according to the agreement, you have to restart this time capsule that was supposed to be opened 100 years later, and it happens to contain his confession. "

"Steven, please, how long have you known me?"

The bald assistant could only look to the mayor for help.

"Obviously I have no idea you are this kind of person!"

The mayor cuts it straight.

"It was an accident, I swear!"

The bald assistant still doesn’t give up.

Because now, although the evidence of the crime is irrefutable, if the mayor is willing to help him, it will not only help him reduce his sentence, but also make him feel better in prison.

This is the most critical.

Because during his years as an assistant to the mayor, he had fought many high-end house-of-cards battles.

For his opponents, he likes to use one sentence as the strongest impact to crush the opponent.

"You still won't admit defeat? Do you want to go to prison and become the bride of some strong inmate?"

Whenever these words are said, the opponent who still wants to resist for a while will change his face and surrender completely.

Because it contains unbreakable truth.

And it’s very painful!

But now he was caught for a crime and was about to be thrown into prison.

Even though he was tall, mighty and bald, in the eyes of those strong inmates who were not good at meat and vegetables, these should not be considered shortcomings.

Just because he is a newcomer is enough.

Besides, because he is the assistant to the mayor, he is rich and powerful, and he takes good care of himself.

All he is asking now is for the mayor to intercede and arrange a good prison and a good cell for him.

He really doesn’t want to be someone else’s bride!

"I was drinking and I don't remember hitting anyone. When I woke up I found the fender was dented and there was blood and hair on it. I thought it might have been some kind of animal and I prayed to God it was one. animal……"

Randy stepped forward directly and cuffed him. Then he looked at Chuck with some confusion: "I have a question, why did he kill someone?"

Seeing the mayor looking at him in surprise, he quickly explained: "I know, it's because the time capsule is about to be taken out, and he is worried that the crime will be exposed, but taking out the time capsule will only add to the article about the oldest man." He wouldn't open and read other people's letters, so there was no need for him to kill two people in a row just to cover up."

"..."

The bald assistant whose hands were handcuffed was stunned.

"You discovered Hua Dian."

Chuck looked at Randy and nodded: "He really doesn't have to do this. If he had a better psychological quality, he would have thought that even if he really opened the time capsule that day, he would never open other people's letters.

Because those letters are personal and are written for future generations.

It has only been 5 years, so there is no need to open it.

He just got too scared and did something stupid. "

"The poor oldest old man and the security guard."

Randy shook his head and said: "They were killed for such a thing."

Then he felt something was wrong again, and looked at the pale and bald assistant in confusion: "It's still wrong, why did you write this letter five years ago?

Didn't you expect today?

Do you not believe that the oldest man in the world can live another 5 years?

Still don’t believe your mayor can be re-elected? "

"..."

The bald assistant's face became increasingly pale, and he tried his best to explain to the mayor, who also looked a little unhappy.

"Steven, I believe you can be re-elected. You also know that I believe in you and hope you can be re-elected.

I just never thought that a 110-year-old man could live for 5 years.

And I'm so stupid!

I was so afraid of possible exposure that I did all this. "

"You don't look like an American."

Chuck looked at the pale, bald assistant and shook his head.

"Why do you say that?"

Randy wondered.

Chuck had no explanation.

But there was deep approval in the mayor's eyes.

Everyone knows that Americans who have committed crimes most often go to church. They just repent and move on. What kind of confession is there?

This is so un-American!

Randy arrested the stupid bald assistant and the case was over.

Chuck left directly without comforting the mayor who had such a scandal.

If something like this happens, it will be almost impossible for the other party to be re-elected, and without this position, the mayor is nothing.

Professor Alicia Harper's new home.

"Boss, you are back."

Lisa, a big girl from Texas, saw Chuck coming back and immediately greeted him happily, looking at Chuck eagerly with her husky-like eyes.

Chuck nodded to her.

Lisa, a big Texas girl, surrounded Chuck and talked about today's events: "I made breakfast and lunch for Alicia. She liked it very much. We were a little bored in the afternoon, so she asked me to drive her to Ping An. Wandered around the town..."

Chuck listened and went upstairs.

Professor Alicia Harper heard the commotion, watched them come in, and asked with a smile: "How is the case?"

"solved."

Chuck explained briefly.

"Wow, boss, you are so awesome!"

Texas girl Lisa was immediately in awe.

Professor Alicia Harper looked at the somewhat flamboyant Texas girl Lisa with strange eyes, especially when she looked at Chuck with her husky-like eyes, the feeling was even more strange.

“What will happen to this mayor’s assistant?”

Professor Alicia Harper could only suppress the weirdness in her heart and asked casually.

"She shouldn't be someone else's bride."

Chuck said bluntly, seeing Professor Alicia Harper's puzzled expression, so he explained: "The mayor will help him if he comes back to his senses, because in order not to expose his crimes, he would rather choose to kill. Don’t choose the easier way.”

"What's an easier way?"

Texas girl Lisa wondered.

“Get the mayor to step down.”

Professor Alicia Harper reacted immediately.

"right."

Chuck nodded: "There are two conditions for opening the time capsule. One is that the oldest old man lives for another 5 years, and the other is that the mayor is still in office.

As the mayor's assistant, he can actually make the mayor step down easily if he wants to. "

"Compared to killing people, this may be more appropriate."

Lisa, a big girl from Texas, shook her head and said: "But if the mayor steps down, his career will also be frustrated. Most people have a sense of luck and will not do that."

"That's why I say he's not American."

Chuck said: "The choice of this method of confession was very abrupt from the beginning. Even if the oldest old man does not live to be 115 years old, or the mayor cannot be re-elected, it does not mean that this is the only way to expose the crime.

On the contrary, if it was to be exposed, it would have been exposed long ago.

Enemies looking for clues, or young people looking for excitement, may dig out this time capsule at any time to see what secret content the mayor and family aides wrote in it for gossip. "

"Only in the eyes of the boss, they are stupid."

Lisa, a big girl from Texas, admired: "Those police officers would never have thought of this possibility."

When Professor Alicia Harper saw this scene, her passionate eyes were filled with helplessness.

After the big Texas girl Lisa was assigned by Chuck, she couldn't help but look at Chuck: "What are you going to do with this assistant?"

"Lisa is an excellent research subject."

Chuck said bluntly.

"..."

Professor Alicia Harper was speechless.

Even a blind man can see the excellence of Texas girl Lisa.

She also knew that Chuck was not shy about this, but being so honest still made her not know what to say.

"Do you have any additional scientific research suggestions?"

Chuck looked at her.

"What?"

Professor Alicia Harper was stunned for a moment, and then looked away uncomfortably under Chuck's gaze.

"Do you know the changes in Ping'an Town?"

She didn't dare to think too much and could only change the topic.

"Know."

Chuck nodded.

"So you like this, huh?"

Professor Alicia Harper couldn't help but ask.

“The diversity of samples of scientific research objects can lead to better scientific research results.”

Chuck said: "But the premise is that it is consistent with the basis of scientific research. I believe in natural selection and my own choice, but I do not believe in other people's choices."

"Sometimes other people's choices are excellent."

Professor Alicia Harper laughed.

She finally understood that plastic surgeons like Dr. Brennan used their own aesthetics to define and choose beauty, which did not fit Chuck's eyes at all.

The next day.

Bergen County High School.

Maria, a beautiful girl with a pale face, walked down the corridor with her head lowered, not daring to look at the men and women leaning on both sides of the corridor talking and laughing.

Compared to these cool students, she seems a little inferior because she doesn't know her own beauty.

Suddenly she tripped over something and fell directly to the ground, the book in her hand scattered all over the floor.

"Are you okay? I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to do it."

A naughty male student stood in front of her, suppressing a smile and apologizing without sincerity.

The others immediately burst into laughter.

"Maybe she should look at the road while walking."

Some people even added insult to injury and laughed.

"Maybe you should shut up and think about the news."

At this time, a short figure appeared in front of Maria and yelled back at the boy who laughed at her.

"Leonard Hofstadter."

The rogue senior student looked down at the short junior student, his eyes narrowed with threats and mockery.

"Why, it's been a few months and you're still trying to scare people with that evil Esther? Do you still have a photo with her in your pocket?"

After saying this, everyone laughed.

"That's what Howard did, and I, Leonard Hofstadter, never had to do that!"

Little Leonard raised his chin and proudly took out a photo from his pocket.

"That's Detective Chuck."

"I've heard that he is a good friend of Detective Chuck."

"Last time Detective Chuck came over and he crushed the rugby team's football because of him. It was too scary and I couldn't afford to offend him."

Everyone was talking in low voices.

The naughty student looked at the photo of little Leonard stretching out in front of his face, and wanted to maintain his momentum. However, looking at the expressionless Chuck in the photo, he was pulled and persuaded by his friends, so he pointed at the little boy. Leonard, he left without saying anything cruel.

Evil Esther has been in jail for several months, so they have long felt that it has nothing to do with them.

But Chuck pinched the balls of many football players for little Leonard, but it has been rumored in Bergen County High School. Anyone who thinks of this has no ball bullying little Leonard.
