Los Angeles Detective

  Chapter 134 is weird (addition 1321)

   Malik Dental Clinic.

  In a black Dodge.

  Xiao Hei sat in the cab and leaned back, "I still like our big Ford."

  Luke put down the seat, half lying down and said, "Peter has seen us drive that car, and it is easy to arouse his vigilance."

  Xiao Hei glanced in the direction of the dental clinic, "Are you going to keep staring like this?"

   "Do you have a better way?"

   "Why don't we just apply for a search warrant?"

   "What is the reason for the search? Just because he took off the driving recorder, this is his freedom, it is not illegal, and the judge will definitely not issue a search warrant."

"Jingle Bell…"

   A cell phone rang.

"Hello."

   Matthew's voice came from the phone, "Guys, I found out about Peter, is it convenient to talk about it now?"

   "Speak." Luke clicked on the voice.

  Matthew continued, "Peter has no recent auto accident insurance records. However, I found out that he withdrew $3,000 in cash this morning."

  Xiao Hei said, "This guy is very rich, isn't it normal to withdraw three thousand dollars to spend? I occasionally withdraw three thousand dollars to use."

  Matthew said, "I checked Peter's bank account, and he mostly uses credit cards and electronic payments, and rarely uses cash."

  Luke said, "A person who is not used to using cash suddenly withdraws cash, probably because he doesn't want the money to be traced, indicating that Peter is likely to take action.

   That's great news, Matthew, any other clues? "

   "How should I say it? I don't know if this is a clue. When I investigated Peter's financial situation, I found that he would transfer money to Courtney every month, and each transfer should not be less than 20,000 U.S. dollars."

   Marcus grinned, "Wow, this chick is going to gut him, why do so many people like being Arrow?"

   "Matthew, the clues you found are very useful, thanks." Luke hung up the phone.

  Marcus said, "You know what? I sometimes envy Matthew. He doesn't have to be on duty, doesn't have to worry about being shot, and just sits there and gets the job done."

   "When you are envious of others, others are also envious of you. Sitting every day is not a good thing. If it were you, you might not last for two days."

   "Maybe." Xiao Hei spread his hands, "Why do you think Peter withdrew the money? What can three thousand dollars do?"

   "I don't know, I'm not Arrow after all, it's hard to understand what they're thinking."

   Next, the two stayed at the dentist's office. Since Matthew said that the other party took cash today, it means that there may be some action after get off work.

   Luke hasn't been following for a long time, how should I say it?

   Really boring.

"Jingle Bell…"

   A bell rang in his hand.

   Luke saw that it was the cell phone number of the little fat man. He should be out of school.

"Hello…"

   "Dear brother, are you busy now?" The little fat man's concerned voice came from the phone.

   "It's okay, what can I say directly?"

   "Are you busy recently? I haven't been home, and my mother has been talking about you all day long."

   "I'm really busy, you know, it's all about the case."

   "I just want to remind you not to work too hard and don't put too much pressure on yourself."

   "Where are you?" Luke felt something was wrong. The little fat man rarely called himself, and even if he did, he wouldn't say such nonsense.

   Could it be that he is in danger?

   "I'm at the milk tea shop in the community square, with the amazing Maggie, the happiest part of my day. I'm definitely the luckiest boy in all of Los Angeles."

   "Is there anything else?" The little fat man was actually showing affection, and Luke felt that he was just worrying.

   "Ah... I almost forgot to talk about business. I want to ask you something."

"explain."

   "I want to buy a bicycle recently, but I don't know much about it. I want to ask you which brand is good. You have bought two bicycles, so you should be able to give me a good suggestion."

   "Didn't dad give you a bicycle for Christmas two years ago?"

   "That's right, but I want to buy a mountain bike now, wider tires, better stability and cushioning, you know, every boy wants to have a super cool mountain bike.

   Just like your Harley. "

   "I see, I will study it when I have time, and I will tell you when the time comes."

   "OK, then I won't disturb your work, remember to go home when you have time, mom and I miss you."

  Luke hung up the phone and muttered, "You nasty little fat man."

  Xiao Hei showed envy, "You brothers have such a good relationship."

   "You're eavesdropping again."

   "I didn't eavesdrop, but my ears are better. I can tell that your brother respects you very much, and he will call you specifically to ask for your opinion.

  I yearn for this kind of brotherhood. "

  Luke smiled, "It's just his birthday coming up."

  Xiao Hei "..."

  Luke can be considered a rich man now, but he doesn't mind buying a birthday present for his little brother.

   It's drizzling.

  …

after an hour.

  The dentist's office is closed.

  Luke lay on the chair, "Follow up, be careful, don't let the other party find out."

   "Don't worry, my nickname is Black Paul, no one knows cars better than me."

   Luke shakes his head, the guy who runs the train with his mouth full.

   The two followed for a while, and found that Peter was not heading home.

  Luke called David and asked him to bring someone over to help.

  Peter parked the car at the door of a detective company, observed the surrounding situation, and then entered the detective company.

  Little underworld, "This guy definitely has a problem."

  Luke didn't speak, just watched quietly. According to his previous speculation, Peter should not be the murderer, but his behavior was also very strange.

   Ten minutes later, Peter came out of the detective company.

  In order to avoid being exposed, Luke and the two stopped following, but let David and Jenny drive to follow.

  Luke and Xiao Hei entered the detective company to inquire.

   "Hi, what do you need?" Upon entering the door, there was a plump black girl in her thirties sitting at the front desk.

  Little ** looked up and down inertially, "Hey, beauty, we want to investigate something, can you introduce some detectives here?"

  The black girl said, "Today there is only one detective in the detective firm, George Dandis, and he is also the best detective in our firm."

   Luke said, "That's him."

  Then, the black girl led the two to an office on the right.

   There was a man in his forties sitting in the office. The office was a bit messy. The man looked slovenly, but he was quite handsome.

  The man introduced himself, "I'm George, how can I help you?"

   "We want to ask you to help find someone."

   "Which? Work record, criminal record, marital status, financial status?"

  Luke showed Peter's photo, "It's him I want to check."

  George took a look and smiled, "Who are you?"

  Xiao Hei flashed his police badge, "lapd, we are investigating a major criminal case, this guy is the person involved, we need to know his every move."

  George was a little embarrassed, and sighed, "I have a detective license, and here is also a legal business. I don't want to cause trouble, but I don't want to betray my client."

  Luke said earnestly, "George, you are not betraying him, you are helping him. He is involved in a major criminal case. He may not know the danger. We are saving him.

  Besides, you should understand the police. Since we have already spotted him, we must find out the purpose of his coming here. If you don’t tell us, we will keep watching this detective company until we find out.

   If you don't want to see us again, you should have said so sooner. "

  George asked back, "What will happen if I don't tell you? Send a police car to patrol the gate of the detective company 24 hours a day?"

  Luke nodded, "Good idea."

  George was silent for a moment, took out his phone and clicked on a photo, "He asked me to investigate this person's information.

   Marital status, financial status, work life, everything. "

  Luke glanced at the photo and immediately recognized the man in the photo, Boris.

   "What did you find out?"

   "This guy's name is Boris. He has lived in Los Angeles since he was a child. He is now an executive in a Las Vegas casino. He has a good financial situation. He was recently arrested by the police for a murder case and was just released on bail this morning.

  You're right, Peter did mess with the murderous ones. It's not easy to deal with this guy. "

   "When did Peter come to ask you to investigate him?"

   "He came the day before yesterday, paid a deposit of 1,000 yuan, and paid the balance of 3,000 yuan today."

  Xiao Hei raised his eyebrows, "You guys make quite a lot of money."

   "I also spent a lot of money to get these news, and I don't have much left, which is to eat. And not all customers are as generous as Peter."

   Luke said, "Send me that picture."

   "OK." George sent the photo to Luke.

   Luke felt a little strange looking at the photo of Boris.

  This photo is obviously processed. Except for the head portrait, everything around is blurred, which seems to be deliberately hiding some information.

   Luke was surprised. How did Peter know Boris? The two should not know each other.

  Why did Peter find Boris? Is it to retaliate against him?

   Or, Peter is the hidden boss. He knew the relationship between Boris and Courtney, so he killed Courtney?

   Luke felt the need to revisit Peter?

   This guy may not be as simple as it seems on the surface.

  …

   Subsequently, Luke reported the investigation to Susan.

  Susan also rearranged the task.

  Susan divides the investigation into two directions, one direction focuses on Luke and investigates Peter's situation.

   She is in charge of the second direction. Peter left at 12 o'clock in the evening, and Boris arrived at Courtney's house at one o'clock in the morning. It is very likely that others have been to Courtney's house within the time difference of nearly an hour.

  Susan, the deputy team, Raymond, and Matthew are responsible for finding this possible third person.

  …

  Late at night.

  Near Peter's house.

  Inside a black Dodge.

   Luke and Xiao Hei are following.

  Since Peter has inquired about Boris, he must have taken action, so Luke's investigation focuses on stalking.

  Because Peter and Luke had more contact with each other, in order to avoid being discovered by him, Luke and Xiao Hei followed at night. The two stayed up all night without incident.

  In the morning, David and Jenny switch shifts.

  …

  The next night was another night without incident.

  Susan found several vehicles that had appeared near the community, and the deputy team and Raymond were in charge of the investigation.

  …

   Soon came the third night.

  At eight o'clock in the evening, Xiao Hei yawned while sitting in the car.

  In order to avoid being discovered by Peter, they changed into a Chevrolet this time.

   "Luke, it's already the third day, shall we continue to watch?"

   "Of course." Luke said firmly.

   Judging from the current situation, there must be something wrong with Peter, and his investigation of Boris is likely to take further action.

  Tracking this kind of thing is very depressing. Luke really did a lot in the past. Three days is considered a small amount. Ten days and a half months ago were normal.

  The police are not fortune tellers, so how can they predict the day when the suspect will act. In order to avoid missing opportunities, long-term follow-up is a basic operation.

  Xiao Hei pointed forward excitedly, "Hey, look, the door of Peter's house is open."

  Luke knocked down his hand, "Track carefully, don't be spotted by him."

  Peter's car is driving ahead.

  Luke and the two followed behind.

  Peter parked his car in a public parking lot and walked into a bar.

  Luke and Xiao Hei also followed. However, when Luke walked near the bar, he felt a different atmosphere.

   This is a **** bar.

  Xiao Hei burst out, "fuck, is this guy Peter okay?"

  Luke patted Xiao Hei on the shoulder, "Protect yourself."

   "Can I not go in?" Although Xiao Hei is flamboyant, he is a standard straight man.

  Luke shook his head, "You can go in alone."

   "No, let's go in together." Xiao Hei took a deep breath, thinking of a group of **** men surrounding him and commenting, Xiao Hei felt creepy.

   "Boom..."

  The two entered the bar, and rock music was playing inside.

  The area of ​​the bar is not very large, almost all of the customers are male, and they look very girly in terms of clothing.

   There is also a stage in the middle of the bar. A man is dancing on the stage, which attracts cheers from the audience.

  Luke stood by the side of the bar, searching for Peter.

  At this time, Peter was sitting in a deck near the stage, drinking and watching with great interest.

  Xiao Hei said, "I really didn't realize that he is actually a pervert."

  Luke glanced around and warned, "If you don't want to be beaten, be careful with your words."

   A few minutes later, the man finished dancing, leaving only a bow tie on his clothes.

  Luke also felt that his eyes were hot. If Peter only had this hobby and had nothing to do with the case, he really didn't need to stay here.

   Just then, Luke saw a familiar face.

   Paul.

  The owner of a **** he met in his first case.

   "You are staring at Peter here, I will go say hello to Paul." Luke said to Xiao Hei beside him.

  Xiao Hei also remembered the other party, "Paul, that pervert is here too, I'm not surprised at all."

   Luke walks over to say hello, "Hi Paul."

  Paul raised his orchid fingers and walked over with his waist twisted, "Hey, Detective Luke, why are you here? The last time I saw you, I didn't realize that you still have this kind of interest."

  Luke pointed at Xiao Hei, "Remember that guy? He wanted to come and see him."

   "Of course, it doesn't look like he has good taste."

   "Paul, why are you here?"

   "I have a share in this bar, and I occasionally perform guest performances on stage. You are not the time today. I usually perform on Wednesdays. It's crazy. The audience loves me."

  Luke nodded, "Of course, you have talent in this area."

  Paul was very happy, "What do you want to drink, I'll buy you a drink."

   "Thank you, I don't really want to drink today, just enjoy the performance."

   "OK, I'll excuse you first, just have fun. Maybe you can make new friends and get to know a different version of yourself."

  Luke's face was a little ugly, he resisted the thought of punching him, pointed to Peter beside the stage and said, "Paul, have you seen the man in the brown casual suit?"

  Paul took a look, "I have no impression."

   "If you are interested in him, you can buy him a drink directly. You don't have to be too restrained here."

   "Thank you for your suggestion." Luke secretly sighed.

   At this moment, another man came up on the stage, which drew cheers.

   This man is bald and has a decent figure. He wears a bow tie on his upper body and pants on his lower body.

  The audience began to cheer from the audience, "Take it off, take it off..."

  Luke took a look, with a look of surprise on his face. He knew the man who was going to dance on the stage.

   It is Courtney's other boyfriend, Boris.

   Courtney died.

   Two of his ex-boyfriends showed up at **** bars.

what is happening?

  Afterwards, Boris took off only the bow tie around his neck and began to dance on the stage.

  The dance is very eye-catching, and Luke can't stand it anymore.

  But the audience in the audience was very excited, especially Peter shouted excitedly, and even tipped the ring.

   This scene is really weird.

   "Paul, do you know the bald man on stage?"

   "Well, a newcomer who just interviewed. He looks average and has a good figure. However, he really wants to win this job and is very sincere.

   I decided to give him a chance. "

   Luke pressed, "Do you think he looks gay?"

  Paul shook his head, "Not like, I've seen too many gays, he's definitely not." Then he pointed to Luke, "You're not either.

   There is also the little black, that is the standard color blank.

   Why don't you tell me the purpose of your coming here.

  Maybe I can still help. "

   Dashcams, Detective Agency, doctored photos, striptease...

  Connecting these clues in series, Luke vaguely guessed something.

  Peter sat by the stage, waving his hands, looking very excited.

  Peter felt something behind him, and his body froze, "Hey, what are you doing?"

  The muscular man looked innocent, "I just want to make friends with you."

   "Fuck, don't touch me again." Peter finished and left the bar straight away, "Disgusting thing."

  Peter came out of the bar, lit a cigarette, and took a few puffs to ease his mood.

  Afterwards, he showed another weird smile.

   "Hi Peter, see you again."

  Peter was stunned, turned his head and saw a black-haired young man next to him.
