Los Angeles Detective

  Chapter 203 Destruction (big chapter)

  The white Volvo is registered under the name of Juventus Yart.

   Juventus Yart originally had a great potential motivation.

  Before, there was no evidence to prove that he was related to the case, but now the photos provided by Mrs. Smith are enough to prove that he has been involved.

  The police also had reason to investigate him.

  …

   176 Portal Community.

  Yart's house.

   Today is Sunday, and the Juventus Yart family is resting at home.

  The family of three are usually busy with their own business, and they can only get together on Sundays.

  The three of them are used to sleeping in on Sunday mornings.

   I didn't start eating breakfast until after nine o'clock in the morning.

   It should be called brunch to be precise. The three of them chatted while finishing their meal. It was probably ten o'clock after the meal.

  I won’t have lunch at noon today, and I have a barbecue party with my neighbors in the afternoon.

  Youwen Yaert’s son is named Terry. He is in the ninth grade this year. He is about 175cm tall, taller than Shirley.

  Terry looked at his mother and asked, "What did the police want you for yesterday?"

  Shirley took a bite of the waffle, and put it back on the plate, "The children are the adults' business."

  Terry put down the milk glass, "I am also part of this family.

  Besides, I'm already in high school. With a sound mind, I can tell the good from the bad. I'm no longer the kid you said. "

   "Really? Have you finished your homework? If you haven't finished it, do it after dinner, otherwise, you won't be able to go anywhere today."

  Terry spread his hands and looked at his father, "Dad, don't you want to say something?"

   "Darling, Terry is right, we are a family, and we were also disturbed to see you taken away by the police.

   We care about you. "Juven Yart's tone was full of complaints and concerns.

  Shirley sighed, "I signed a non-disclosure agreement, and the police won't let me tell anyone else."

   Juventus Yart asked, "Are me and Terry someone else to you?"

  Hearing what her husband and son said, Shirley felt a little guilty, "No, you are my family and my dearest people.

  Uh, actually, I didn't want to hide it, I just wanted to find a suitable opportunity to talk about it.

  The night before yesterday, I took a client to see a house, and a homicide happened to happen in that neighborhood.

  The police only received the call yesterday morning. They failed to catch the murderer and have been looking for witnesses.

  Because I drove to that community and I am not a resident of that community, so... I became the subject of the investigation.

   Yes, I knew I was unlucky too, but it just happened. "

  Youwen Yaert asked concerned, "Are they treating you as a witness or a suspect?"

  Xue Li frowned slightly, and said helplessly, "I think I should have both. They asked me a lot of questions, such as where was the night before yesterday? Did I know the deceased and so on.

   Also asked me to describe what I saw and heard, and then let me leave. "

  Terry showed a relaxed look, "So that's the case, then I'm relieved."

  Youwen Yart said, "My wife, try to show clients houses during the day in the future. Although the security in Los Angeles is not bad recently, going out at night is always risky."

  Shirley sighed, "I also want to make appointments with clients to view houses during the day, but some clients have to work during the day, so it is more convenient only at night.

  This is the service industry, and sometimes there is no choice. "

  Yesterday, after Shirley came home from the police station, her husband and son kept asking about the situation, but she was still in panic at the time and didn't think about how to explain it.

   After sleeping all night, he also calmed down and thought about his speech.

  Youwen Yart grabbed his wife's hand, "Honey, don't make yourself too hard, my income is enough for the family's expenses."

   “It’s enough, but not much savings.

   Terry will go to college in two years, I hope he will go to a better college.

  The situation in the United States and China is different.

  The better the Huaguo, the lower the university fees.

  The United States is just the opposite, the better the university, the higher the price.

  Terry rolled his eyes, "Mom, don't put all the responsibility on me, I can apply for a loan in college."

  Shirley looked at her son and shook her head, "I don't want you to be under too much pressure. College is the best time, and it should be relaxed and happy, instead of thinking about where to work part-time all day long."

   Juventus Yart smiled, and looked at his son, "I really envy you for having such a good mother.

  My mother didn't have this awareness back then.

  In order to pay off my student loans earlier, I worked at McDonald’s for a year and cleaned dishes in a restaurant for a year. "

  The conversation atmosphere of the family of three is relaxed and happy, and it is definitely a warm and friendly family in the eyes of outsiders.

   "Ding Dong..." The doorbell rang.

   All three of them were stunned.

  The memory of yesterday resurfaced in my mind.

  Xue Li stood up, pretending to be relaxed and said, "You two gentlemen, I leave the task of cleaning up the tableware to you.

  I'm going to open the door. "

   Juventus Yart was a little worried, "Wife, do you want me to go with you?"

   "No, maybe the neighbor invited us to a party, just relax."

   "You're right, it's over. Los Angeles has murders almost every day, nothing to worry about."

  Xue Li walked to the door, checked the video phone, and saw two familiar figures standing outside the door, they were the two policemen who took her away yesterday.

  fuck!

   What I was worried about still happened.

  Her heart is very complicated, angry, helpless, and fearful, and her newly peaceful life may be broken by the arrival of the police again.

   But facing the police at the door, she had no room to escape, so she could only forcefully open the door.

   If it takes too long, it will arouse the suspicion of the husband and son. The best way is to ask the police as soon as possible about the purpose of coming and send them away.

   "Crackling..." Shirley cut to the chase, "Lieutenant Luke, why are you here again? Didn't I make it clear yesterday?"

  Xue Li lowered her voice, "And I also had a physical examination, and the medical examination report proved that I did not lie."

  Luke said, "We're just here to ask a few questions."

   "Then ask as soon as possible."

   "Have you ever been to Barron Smith's house?"

"No."

   "Did you show up near Barron Smith's house in a white Volvo?"

   "No, why would I do that kind of thing, Barron Smith and I are only communicating in private, and have never thought of disturbing each other's family.

  What happened that night was just a mistake, other than that we have no more intersection. "

   "Can I take your word for it?"

   "Of course, I don't need to lie to you, is there anything else I want to ask?"

  Luke said, "I have nothing to ask you for now."

   "OK, then please leave as soon as possible and don't disturb my life anymore." Shirley was about to close the door after speaking.

   "Bang!" Luke blocked the door with his hands.

  Xue Li asked in a slightly dissatisfied tone, "I've already made it clear, what else do you want?"

   "You made it clear, so what we are looking for now is not you."

   Shirley frowned tightly, with a trill, "What do you mean?"

  Luke took out a photo, "A week ago, someone drove a Volvo car that appeared near the deceased's house.

   According to the family members of the deceased, the car behaved suspiciously. "

  Xue Li glanced at the photo, with a flustered look on her face, "I even bought it, how could it be my car..."

   "This is the purpose of our visit. Why did your car show up in front of Baron Smith's house?"

  Shirley shook her head, "I don't know either."

   "OK, then let's ask someone who knows, this car should be registered under your husband's name.

  Is he home? "

   Shirley trilled, "You want to talk to my husband?"

"Is there a problem?"

   "You promised me not to tell my husband and son about this, you promised."

   "The premise of our promise is that it will not affect the investigation of the case, but now that your husband has been involved in this case, it is impossible for us to turn a blind eye.

  If it were you, what would you do? "

  Shirley's tone was firm, "You must have made a mistake, my husband didn't know about it."

   "Have you ever told him about your relationship with Barron Smith?"

   "No, how could I possibly tell him."

   "That's right, if you can hide it, he can hide it as well.

   Perhaps, neither of you knows the other as well as you think.

   Invite Juventus out, we need to make a record for him. "

   "Hey, were you talking about me just now? What happened? Why are you here again?" Juventus heard the movement and walked out of the house.

  Luke pointed to the white Volvo next to the garage, "Mr. Juventus Yalter, is that your car?"

   "Yes, it's my car, what's wrong?"

   "If it's convenient, I'd like to ask you a few questions."

   "Why are you asking me? What happened to my car?"

   "I want to speak with you privately."

   "A non-disclosure agreement again?" Juventus Yart spread his hands and asked Shirley beside him, "Honey, what's the matter? Why is that case related to me?"

  Xue Li's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and she remained silent because she didn't know how to answer.

  Luke showed the search warrant, "Mr. Yalter, we are going to search this car, please hand over the car keys."

   Juventus Yart was a little dissatisfied, "Who can tell me what happened?"

  Luke stretched out his hand, "Give me the car keys first, and then we'll talk, and you'll naturally know what's going on."

   Juventus Yart looked at his wife, but the other party still didn't answer, so he could only go back to the house, took out the car keys and handed them to Luke.

   "Be careful, don't mess with my car."

   "We'll keep an eye out." Luke handed over the keys to Matthew and Jackson, and put them in charge of searching the Volvo.

   Luke turned around, "Mr. Yalter, let's talk alone."

  Watching the two of them get into his car, Juventus Yart was a little depressed, "Just right, I also want to talk to you alone. See which law I have violated, and even produced a search warrant.

  You can really do it. "

  Youwen Yaert turned to Shirley and said, "Honey, you take the child upstairs first."

  Shirley opened her mouth, wanted to say but didn't know what to say, turned around and entered the room, "Terry, go upstairs."

   "No, I am also part of this family, I also want to know what happened?"

   "The police don't care about you, come with me." Shirley took her son upstairs involuntarily, she didn't want her son to hear the next words.

   Never want to.

   Juventus called Luke and others to the living room, "OK, there is no one else here, so let's talk.

  What the **** happened, you guys come to my house again and again?

   First you found my wife, and now you are looking for me. What are you looking for? "

  Luke took out the photo of the deceased, "Do you know him?"

  You Wen took the photo and checked it carefully, "I haven't seen it, is he the one who was killed?"

   "Yes, the night before yesterday, this man was shot dead in his car, and this is the case we are investigating now."

   "What does that have to do with me, I don't know him at all. Why did you search my car? He couldn't have died in my car, could he?"

   "No, he died in his Mercedes-Benz, but Shirley was there when he died."

   "So, you suspect my wife is a murderer?" Juventus sneered, "It's ridiculous.

  She didn't have a gun at all, she didn't even know where the insurance was, how could she kill someone. "

  "When the victim died, Shirley was also in the car. She is also the only witness the police have found so far. In addition, we did not regard her as a suspect because she was also one of the victims."

   "Wait, you said my wife is also a victim?" Ju Wen showed concern,

  "That's not what she said. She said that she just went to that community to bring clients. Could it be that the victim was his client?"

   "From what the police know so far, the deceased was not Shirley's client.

  The deceased was also a real estate agent. The two may have some intersections at work, and they are considered friends. "

   "Then why did my wife lie? Why did she hide her meeting with him?"

  Luke said, "This is what we need to investigate."

  Youwen Yaert seemed to have thought of something, he grabbed his hair vigorously, "Damn it, don't you suspect that Shirley and that man...

  So, you came to me today, suspecting that I killed that man?

  You guys are baseless, I had no idea they were meeting the night before.

  It is impossible for Shirley to do something sorry to me.

   Absolutely impossible. "

  Luke took out a photo of a white Volvo, "This photo was taken near the deceased's house, you say?"

   Juventus Yart zoomed in on the picture, "This license plate number...is my car."

   "That's right, that's why we're looking for you."

   Juventus Yart showed an unbelievable look, "But I haven't driven there."

   Luke asked back, "Then who do you think it would be?"

  Youwen Yart was stunned, "Could Shirley really have something to do with that man?"

  Xiao Hei couldn't stand it anymore, "Dude, isn't this obvious? How straightforward do we need to be.

  According to Shirley's description.

   The two of them were dating when the deceased was killed.

  And your car appeared near the deceased's house a week ago, and there is another motive for committing the crime.

  If you were the police, would you doubt yourself? "

  Luke did not interrupt Xiao Hei this time. Normally, the police would not disclose the privacy of the persons involved, but this time the situation was different.

   With the in-depth investigation of the case, Juventus Yart has been involved.

  The premise of protecting the privacy of the persons involved in the case is that it does not affect the investigation of the case.

   Juventus Yart shook his head, "I don't believe it, you must have made a mistake. Impossible."

  Youwen Yaert looked very excited and clenched his fists, but he had no choice but to turn around and run inside, "bang bang bang" to the second floor.

  Seeing Shirley and her son on the second floor, he faltered again.

   "Shirley, come down, I have something to say."

  Terry asked, "Dad, what happened?"

  Youwen Yart warned, "It's none of your business, you stay in the study on the second floor and don't eavesdrop."

  Afterwards, Youwen took his wife downstairs and asked in a low voice, "The police just said that you didn't take the client to see the house last night, but dated the man who was killed.

is that true? "Youwen Yaert's eyes were red, his voice was hoarse, "I want to hear it from you.

   If they are lying, they dare to frame you.

   Even if they were cops, I would beat them up. "

   Shirley lowered her head, not daring to look at her husband.

   "Why don't you talk? Tell me it's not true!"

  Crying, Shirley choked up and said, "Sorry, husband, I did something wrong."

   "Fuck!

   What they say is true, why would you do that?

  Why are you doing this to me? "

   "I did something wrong, I will explain it to you, please give me some time."

"explain?

  I trust you so much, but you did this behind my back and asked me to forgive you.

   Do you think I'm an idiot? "

   "No, I just..." Shirley wanted to argue, but didn't know how to answer.

  Xiao Hei said, "Youwen Yart, please calm down, anger can't solve the problem now."

   Juventus Yart asked, "You let me calm down!

   Have you ever been married? Is your wife cheating on you?

   If not, then you are not qualified to say me. "

  Xiao Hei "..."

  Okay, you won, I really don't have the qualifications.

  Luke also persuaded, "You Wen, this is a matter between adults, and it is also a private matter between you and your husband.

   You are yelling here, not only for us to hear, but also for your son to hear.

   Maybe even attract neighbors, is that what you want? "

   Juventus Yart gritted his teeth, showing an angry look, as if he was extremely aggrieved.

  But he still heard Luke's words, "You're looking for the wrong person, I didn't kill that bastard.

  However, when you catch the murderer, thank him for me.

   That **** deserves it! "

  Juven Yart finally gave in and did not explode.

  Perhaps this is the helplessness of adults, who have too many scruples.

  Luke said, "We would like to believe you too, but we still need to make a record for you.

  Just a routine inquiry that will prove your innocence. "

  Youwen asked back, "After finishing the transcript, will you not come again?"

"Yes."

   "Okay, then ask, ask quickly."

   "Where were you between nine o'clock and twelve o'clock the night before yesterday?"

   "I'm on a business trip in Bonas City and rested at the Hilton Hotel."

   "What do you do and why do you travel?"

   "I'm an actor, and I'm filming a TV series that needs to be filmed in Bonas City."

  Xiao Hei asked, "Are you an actor? I don't seem to have any impression? What TV series have you filmed?"

"I'm not a star, just a small actor who has played some supporting roles. I have guest starred in many TV series. The earliest ones are CSI series, Modern Family, The Walking Dead, and Bones. This time I filmed the second season of La Brea. This is A great sci-fi movie.

   You guys don't believe it's okay to ask the crew, but please don't put a negative light on me, it's not easy for me to get a role.

   I have lost…

   Don’t want to lose your job again. "

   Luke stared at his expression, and asked again, "Do you know the dead man?"

   "I said, I don't know."

  Luke didn't see anything unusual, and continued to ask, "Do you have a pistol?"

   "I only have a shotgun."

   "A week ago, did you drive a white Volvo around the house of the deceased?"

"No."

   "Has this white Volvo ever been stolen?"

"No."

   "Do you have a loaner car?"

"No."

  Luke cast a questioning look at Shirley again.

   Shirley also shook her head silently.

"That's interesting, the car has never been stolen, and your husband and wife don't admit that they drove this car to the deceased's house." Luke looked at Juventus, then at Shirley, the situation is obvious now, the biggest It may be that one of the couple is lying.

  Of course, there is another possibility. A third person secretly drove a white Volvo to the deceased’s house.

  Luke has some guesses about the identity of this third person, but the identity of the other party is quite special, and Luke wants to confirm it again.

   Luke turned to Shirley and asked, "When was the last time you drove this car?"

   "I rarely drive this car, not in a while."

   Luke looked at Juventus again, "When was the last time you drove this car?"

   "Four days ago.

  I went on a business trip in the crew's car, and I haven't moved the car since I came back. "

   "In other words, you should be the last person to drive." After Luke finished speaking, he left the house and walked to the garage.

  At this moment, Jackson and Matthew are tinkering with the driving recorder.

  Luke walked to the side of the cab, observed it, and then sat in the cab, feeling that the space was a little small, and his head touched the roof.

  Luke is 185cm tall, if he were to drive this car, he would definitely move the seat back.

  Luke looked at Juventus, "What's your height?"

   "About 185cm."

  The height of the two is about the same. If Juventus wants to drive this car, he should also adjust the position. In other words, during the time Juventus left, someone should have moved this car.

  Luke told Xiao Hei beside him, "Test the fingerprints on the steering wheel and see who else has moved this car besides their husband and wife."

"receive."

   At this moment, Matthew on the side greeted, "Deputy Luke, we have found some information here."

"What's wrong?"

  Matthew said, "We checked the dash cam the night before and found that someone was driving this car from here at the time of the incident, and then drove all the way to Mount Kapoor.

  The person who drove this car has likely been to the scene of the crime. "

   Now the situation is very clear. The husband and wife were not at home the night before, and neither of them had ever driven this car, so there is only one person left who is qualified to drive this car.

   Their son Terry.

  Luke said seriously, "You two, I want to talk to your son."

  You Wen was in a hurry, "This matter has nothing to do with my son, he is just an underage student, and he doesn't have a driver's license."

  Shirley also hurriedly said, "This matter has nothing to do with Terry. The murderer not only killed Barron, but also raped me."

  You Wen showed a surprised look, "Have you been raped by a murderer?"

  Shirley showed a look of humiliation, "Yes."

  You Wen showed a look of disgust, "My dear, your life is really messy."

  Xue Li froze for a moment, instead of caring as she imagined, she was hurt by her husband's tone.

   Luke said, "You're right, I don't believe it's about him either.

   But the clues all point to him.

   Invite him out and make a record to prove his innocence. "

   Juventus shook his head, "No, I don't agree."

  Shirley also said, "You must have made a mistake."

  The door opened at this time, and Terry stood at the door, "What do you want to say to me? Go on."

  You Wen sighed softly, showing a complicated expression.

  Xue Li lowered her head, not daring to look directly at her son.

  At Luke's suggestion, the group returned to the living room again.

  The irony is that the cutlery on the table in the restaurant has not been collected yet, and the scene of a family of three sitting at the table having breakfast is vivid in my memory.

  A seemingly warm and loving family was shattered overnight.
