Los Angeles Detective

  Chapter 157 Confused

   Vampire - a legendary supernatural creature.

  Survive for a long time by drinking the blood of humans or other creatures.

  Although Luke is a systematic person, he does not believe in the existence of supernatural creatures.

  This can be seen from the attributes of the system. Although he has learned a lot of skills, he has no supernatural power.

   When encountering a vampire, he only needs to run away.

  Although most people don't believe in the existence of vampires, this legend has been circulating for at least hundreds of years, and a small number of people still believe it.

   In the past, vampires always gave people the impression of terror and killing.

  A few years ago, a vampire-themed TV series was released, which beautified the image of vampires and increased the audience of vampires a lot.

  Although the popularity has come down in the past two years, there are still some fans of vampires.

  Susan glanced at everyone, "The situation is basically understood, what do you think?"

  Jenny said, "She is neither a child nor an old man. It is hard for me to imagine a young adult woman being scared to death alive.

   This is incredible. "

  The deputy team was a little dissatisfied, "Do you think it's normal for the old man to be scared to death?"

   "No, I don't mean that."

   "Could there really be vampires?" Xiao Hei was no longer silent when he encountered a topic of interest.

  The deputy team shook his head, "It seems that your brain is indeed broken. Didn't you often fall in love before? What's wrong this time?"

   "Julian is different from other women, you won't understand." Xiao Hei sighed.

   "I've been married four times, yet you say I don't understand?" The deputy team asked, "How many times have you been married?"

  Xiao Hei "..."

  The deputy team shrugged, "Actually, getting married is not as scary as you think. I suggest you try it."

  Xiao Hei pouted, "Then why did you get divorced four times?"

   Vice team "..."

   "Gentlemen, we are at the scene of the crime, can we return to the theme of investigation?" Susan interrupted the two, "David, Luke, what do you think? I want to hear some normal advice."

  David said, "I have seen many cases of dumping corpses.

  The special feature of this case is the blood hole in the neck. I think it may be related to vampires. I am not saying that there are vampires, but whether the murderer is deliberately imitating vampires.

   I've seen some crazy vampire fans, some of their behavior is difficult for ordinary people to understand. David pointed, "Even, I think they may have a problem here." "

  Luke went on to say, "I agree with David, the murderer may indeed be imitating a vampire, but there may be some doubts about the murderer's motive and purpose.

  The victim was not stabbed to death by a knife, nor was he shot to death, but was frightened to death.

  There is a problem here, how to scare a person to death? How to ensure that a person will be scared to death? How to find out the limit of a person's psychological endurance?

  There are too many uncertainties in this method of killing.

   In other words, some courageous people have no possibility of being scared to death at all.

   So here comes the problem.

  How did the murderer know that the victim would be scared to death?

  I personally think that the murderer probably didn't know that the victim would be scared to death, and it was probably an accident.

   In other words, the murderer wanted to hurt the victim, but he didn't expect her to be scared to death.

   Even, it might just be a joke.

   It's just that the joke went a little too far and got out of hand. "

  Luke paused, and continued, "We can also get some confirmation from the informant. The informant has been at the scene of the corpse dumping and has seen two corpse dumpers, but the corpse dumper did not kill him.

Why?

  The person who throws the corpse can't bear it?

  I don't think so.

   Judging from the description of the informant, the two throwers did not seem to be hesitant.

  I am more inclined to speculate that the thrower thinks it is not worth killing, and inversely speculate that the thrower is probably not the murderer, or did not intentionally murder the victim.

   There is no need to commit a more serious crime for a minor crime. "

   I don’t know if it was affected by the vice team’s four marriage experiences, Xiao Hei regained some vitality, “I think the same as Luke.”

  After listening to everyone's thoughts, Susan began to arrange tasks, "Deputy team, David, you are responsible for investigating the identity of the deceased.

  Ramon, Jenny, investigate whether there are any recent cases related to vampires.

  Luke, Marcus, investigate the trail of the suspect vehicle. "

   "Yes, captain."

   "Good." Susan nodded, and glanced at the dead body bag, "Let's catch this vampire early."

  …

   Then Luke and Xiao Hei returned to the police station to check the monitoring.

  Luke didn't like to check the monitoring before, it felt too boring.

  But since I started to exercise my observation skills, my mentality has changed.

  Checking and monitoring can be regarded as a method of exercising observation skills.

   And after using four observation cards, Luke's observation ability is far superior to that of ordinary people. People are more or less competitive. The better they are at something, the more they like to do it.

   To put it bluntly, it is also a sense of superiority.

  Take the monitoring speed as an example, the stronger and sharper the observation ability, the faster the monitoring speed.

   For the same video, Xiao Hei may need an hour to watch it, but Luke can watch it in less than half an hour, and it is not only faster, but also more accurate.

  The two called up the surveillance video near the body dumping site, and after more than an hour of investigation, Luke finally found a suspicious black pickup.

  The monitored time was 1:50 in the morning, which coincided with the time of dumping the body.

   License plate number, 5CFb382

  Car owner, Bart Bull

Sex: Male

  Date of Birth, February 9, 1986

  Mobile phone number, 6268766384

  Address, 132 Carvelli Street

   Social Security Number, 623-51-7348

  Criminal records, drunk driving, affray, intentional injury

  Xiao Hei grinned, "Wow, this guy has a really rich resume. Basically, he comes to the police station to report every year."

  Luke stood up and stretched his legs, "It seems that we need to talk to him."

  …

   Inside a black Ford Explorer.

  Xiao Hei asked while driving, "Why do you think the deputy team got married four times?"

   Luke yawned and leaned back on the seat, "I've never been married, you should ask him personally."

  Xiao Hei shook his head, "The old man has a bad temper, I don't think it's a good idea."

   "You want to marry Julian?"

   "I don't know. The old man said that getting married is not that scary. I think what he said makes sense. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get married four times."

  Luke thought to himself, it’s not scary, he has left four times.

   "Luke, you're a smart guy, what do you think I should do?"

  Luke thought for a moment, "That's up to you, man, I can't give you an opinion.

   What is right for me may not be right for you. "

  Xiao Hei sighed and didn't ask any more questions.

  However, judging from Xiao Hei's attitude, he really has a heart for Julian, otherwise, with his previous urination, he would have broken up with the other girl long ago, and there is no need to be so entangled.

  To be honest, based on Luke's understanding of Xiao Hei, he is not very optimistic about the relationship between the two.

  This is also the reason why he didn't give an opinion.

  Twenty minutes later, Luke and Xiao Hei arrived at Bart Bull's house.

   "I hate this community." Xiao Hei began to complain as soon as he entered the community.

  This is a standard white community. The housing prices in the community are not particularly high, and the residents are not particularly rich. The lower the level of the white community, the more black people are excluded.

  Once this kind of community is blackened, housing prices will depreciate greatly. Unlike the freedom of residence in China, it is difficult to live in this community if it is not recognized by most community residents in the United States.

   There was once a black man who moved to live in a white community. He moved in in the morning and was handcuffed from home by the police in the afternoon.

  The reason was that a neighbor reported that a suspicious man was staying near her house.

  The newly moved black man was taken to the police station for questioning. After checking, the police just said "Sorry to bother you this afternoon", and the whole thing was "just a misunderstanding".

   claims that similar things will not happen in the future.

  Although the blacks sued, they ended up getting nothing.

  The Ford Explorer stopped in front of Bart Bull's house.

  Luke looked around and saw a black pickup in the yard of Bart Bull's house.

  The two got out of the car, and Xiao Hei observed the surrounding situation.

  Luke checked the black pickup, first went around the car, and then squatted down to check the tires.

   "Crackling..." The door suddenly opened, and a middle-aged white man came out and asked loudly, "Hey... who are you? Why are you in my yard?"

  Caucasian man with short hair, red skin, wearing a white vest, like boiled shrimp.

  Luke flashed his police badge, "lapd, I'm Inspector Luke, and I want to talk to you."

   "I have nothing to talk to you, leave my yard immediately. Don't touch my car."

  Xiao Hei showed his handcuffs, "Why don't we talk in another place, how about a one-day trip to the police station? Sorry, I made a mistake.

  Maybe a lifetime. "

  Bart snorted, "I'm not scared, I understand the law, tell me the reason for arresting me?"

  Luke waved his hand and signaled Xiao Hei not to speak, "No one is going to arrest you, just talk, OK?

  You are involved in a case, and we need to make a record for you routinely. "

  Bart asked back, "What case?"

  Luke spread his hands, "Are you sure you want to talk in the yard? Let the neighbors hear? Or let them participate in the opinion."

   "OK, come in." Bart stepped aside.

   "Good." Luke walked into the room, looking around.

  Xiao Hei put his right hand on the **** of the gun and walked in.

  He doesn't like this white guy, he has a hunch this guy doesn't like himself either.

  However, after entering the living room, Xiao Hei's thoughts changed, and his right hand on the gun stock was a little awkward.

   I saw four big, round white men sitting in the living room, each with a gun on his waist, and one guy was holding a semi-automatic rifle in his hand.

  Luke swallowed, and suddenly regretted coming in, feeling like a wolf is in the mouth of a tiger.

  At the same time, he was also thinking silently in his heart, if the two sides turned against each other, who would be the first to kill?

  The one with the rifle?

  No, some idiot pulled a grenade out of his pocket.

  fuck, a group of perverts.

  Bart said to the four strong men on the sofa, "Hey, guys, we have two new friends, Detective Luke, and his little follower."

   Needless to say, the eyes of the four strong white men had already focused on Luke and the two of them, especially Hei who kept aiming at him.

  Bart smiled, "Inspector Luke, don't look outside, these are my friends, we all have gun licenses, would you like to check?"

  Luke thought to himself, check the hell, it’s okay if you have a gun license, but if you don’t have a gun license, will I turn my face or not?

   "Dude, we're not here to cause trouble. Even if you're going to rob a bank now, that's your freedom."

  Luke's statement is a bit exaggerated, but the bank robbery is indeed under the FBI's control.

  Bart spread his hands, "You respect me, I respect you. Tell me, what do you want to talk about?"

  Luke proposed, "I suggest letting your four friends leave first. I don't want them to be involved in this case. It's not good for anyone."

  Bart said to several strong white men, "Guys, there is beer on the second floor, why don't you drink together and study the bank robbery together."

   "Haha..." The four white men smiled and went upstairs fully armed.

  Little Heihei breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't speak after entering the door just now, and he felt a little out of place. "Fortunately, they ran fast, otherwise, I won't promise not to kick their asses."

  Bart laughed, "Hehe, I'm almost scared to pee."

  Little Heihei said, "I'm serious."

   Luke interrupted the two, "OK, let's talk business."

   "I'm also curious about what you are looking for from me? I made a lot of mistakes in the past, but I have reformed myself, and I hope you don't keep troubling me."

   "We are here to prove your innocence, if you are." Luke pointed to his body camera, "You don't have to answer, but it's best not to lie.

  Where were you between 9pm and 2am yesterday? "

   "I wonder what case it is?"

   "Answer me first."

"I'm at home."

   "Who can prove it?"

  Bart shook his head and sighed, "I'm single now, from 9:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., where can I sleep if I'm not at home? Where can I find witnesses?"

   "Are you sure you never left home?"

"Yes."

   "Where's your car?"

   "You mean the pickup outside?"

   "That's right, a pickup with license plate number 5CFb382."

   "It's been there all the time, I haven't gone out today."

   "Are you sure that car was there between 9:30 and 2:00 last night?"

   "Yes, I'm sure, no one dares to move my car, I don't agree, let alone my gun."

  Xiao Hei interjected, "Hey, I don't like your tone."

  Bart shrugged, "I didn't invite you in either."

  Little gangster, "You are easy to get beaten with this attitude."

  Bart was not to be outdone, "You are right, but I usually beat people up."

   "Stop!" Luke waved his hand to interrupt the two, and took out a photo of the dead woman, "Do you know me?"

  Bart took a look, shook his head, "No, does it have anything to do with me?"

  Luke said, "This woman was killed around the early hours of this morning and was driven into the sea."

   "It's none of my business."

"you sure?"

"Sure."

   Luke took out a photo again, "Is this your car?"

  Bart glanced at the surveillance video screenshot, "Why monitor my car?"

  Luke reminded, "Look at the monitoring time."

  Bart squinted his eyes and frowned, "It's past one o'clock this morning...Impossible, my car has never been out."

  Luke tapped the photo on the table with his right index finger, "Then explain, what happened to the car in the surveillance video?"

  Bart picked up the photo and looked at it carefully, "I don't know what's going on, the car model is the same as the license plate number...but I really haven't driven out."

  Little gangster, "Did you lend your car to someone else? For example, those four big guys upstairs.

  Killing people and dumping corpses is no small matter, you can't cover them up. "

   "No, I won't lend my pickup truck to anyone! No one dares to steal my car, I'm sure, it's not my car."

   Luke asked, "Are you sure?"

   "I'm sure." Bart nodded.

  Luke said seriously, "Good, I trust you once."

  Xiao Hei raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, Luke doesn't believe in people's temperament easily, could it be... Cowardly?

  Luke is not counseling, but speaking with evidence.

  He checked the pickup truck outside before entering the house. There was no scratch on the outside of the pickup truck, there was a layer of dust on the surface, and none of the four tires was stained with sand.

  There is a scratch on the right side of the car in the video. Although it is not obvious, Luke's observation ability is far beyond ordinary people.

  In addition, according to the description of Jamie the homeless, the car drove into the beach, and the tires should have been stained with sand, but there was no sand in Bart's tires, and there was no sign of cleaning the car.

  So Luke speculates that it is not a car, but probably a set car.

  In the past, Lu Ke also encountered fake license plates in domestic investigations. Some suspects like to use fake license plates in the process of committing crimes. In this way, even if the vehicle and license plate are captured by surveillance, the owner’s information cannot be traced.

  However, that kind of deck car is usually a random deck. If you check the car model and color in the system, you will know that it is a deck.

  But this time it is different, it is the same style and color of the car, but with different brands.

   Checked in the system, it happened to match, and it was easy to regard the original car owner as a suspect.

  If it weren't for Luke's strong observation ability and more responsible, an ordinary policeman might have arrested Bart long ago.

  Of course, it may also be killed by an angry Bart.

   "Bart, I believe you, but other people don't necessarily believe you. You have also seen the photos. What do you think is going on?"

  Bart showed an angry look, "It must be some **** who is taking revenge on me and deliberately set up my license plate."

   "Do you have any suspects?"

  Bart thought for a while, then shook his head.

   Luke asked back, "Not one?"

  Bart sighed, "There are too many, I don't know which one to say."

  Luke "…"

  Xiao Hei smiled, "You also know that you are not welcome."

  Luke stood up and paced, "Among those people you know drive the same car?"

   "Yes, but in a different color."

  Luke ordered, "Say out who you suspect, Marcus, and you are responsible for recording."

  Xiao Hei joked, "Should I buy a larger notebook?"

  Bart said, "You really should buy one, and write your own name on the first one."

  Xiao Hei "..."

   "Don't let me put too much thought on you, do as I say, OK?" Luke walked to the window and looked outside.

  Based on his speculation, since the suspect will choose the car deck of the same style and color, it means that the other party is likely to have seen Bart's car, or even know Bart himself.

   There may be three purposes.

   The first is to escape the police's tracking.

  Second, he and Bart had a grudge, and incidentally retaliated and framed Bart.

   The third type is warning.

  Once Bart is caught because of the pickup truck, the other party will know that the police are investigating him, and he can destroy the evidence in advance or run away.

  If it is the third situation, it means that the other party is likely to have been paying attention to Bart, and it is likely to be his friend or neighbor.

  Luke observes the neighbors around, some people are standing in the yard, some people are passing by, Luke observes their looks and behaviors from the window.

  Suddenly, Luke felt his eyes shake.

   The reflection came from the third neighbor on the east side of the opposite street, and there was a black Mustang at the door.

   Sniper rifle?

   Telescope?

  Luke walked away from the window, thinking it should be the second possibility.

   Someone secretly observed Bart's house with a telescope?

  If there is no problem, the devil will believe it.

  Luke asked, "Do you know the neighbor with the Mustang in the east?"

   "I know, Dempsey, we used to have a good relationship, and occasionally we would get together to drink, but then we gradually lost contact."

   "Is there a conflict?"

  Bart glanced at Xiao Hei, "It doesn't count, it's just that he can't play a piece. What's wrong with him?"

   "He's spying on you with binoculars."

   "Wow..." Xiao Hei showed an original expression.

   "Is he messing with me?"

"What do you think?"

  Bart gritted his teeth, "If it is, I will blow his head off."

  …

ten minutes later.

   Raymond and Jenny also rushed to the community to support.

  Bart was escorted into the car and taken away.

  The pickup truck was also driven away by Xiao Hei.

   "Boom boom..."

  Xiao Hei hit the gas pedal hard, as if wishing that the whole community could hear it.

  Not long after the three cars left, the door of the house with the wild horse in front of the door opened.

  A white man in his thirties with a cross on his chest stepped out and left the community in a Mustang.

   After driving for about ten minutes, the Mustang stopped at the door of a warehouse.

  The white man wearing the cross opened the warehouse door and walked in. There was a black pickup truck in the warehouse, which was exactly the same as Bart's car, with the same license plate number.

  The man took off the license plate with a tool, and then prepared to leave the warehouse.

  However, as soon as he opened the warehouse door, he was in a daze.

   Thank you for your support.

   The update time is tentatively scheduled for 8:00 pm.
