Los Angeles Detective

   Half an hour later, the door to the Office of the Robbery and Murder Division rang.

   "Boom boom."

"Come in."

  A moment later, a Caucasian woman in her thirties walked into the office. She was wearing a black professional dress and carrying a briefcase. She was tall.

   "Hi, my name is Vicky Sarber and I am Thomas Corley's attorney."

   "Hello, Lawyer Sabo, my name is Jenny, we just talked on the phone.

  Please come with me. "

   Jenny led her into the lounge and asked, "What would you like to drink?"

  Vicky Sabo put the briefcase on the table, "No, thank you, where is Thomas Corley?"

   "Wait a minute." After Jenny finished speaking, she left the office.

   After a while, the door of the lounge was pushed open.

  Luke and Jenny walked into the lounge one after the other, "Hello, Lawyer Sabo, my name is Luke Li, and I'm the person in charge here."

   "I've heard of your name, Captain Lee." Vicky Sabo stood up and shook hands with Luke, "Did Thomas Corley invite me here?"

   "No, I invited you here, to be precise, I want to talk to you."

   "About what?"

   "About Thomas Corley."

  Vicky Saber smiled, "You want to get information about a client from a lawyer.

  Are you doubting my profession?

  Listen, don't expect to hear anything from me against my client. "

   "Thomas Corley has pleaded guilty to all the charges. Is there any more unfavorable news for him than this?"

   "Then why did you come to me?"

   "To help Thomas Corley."

  Vicky Saber showed a vigilant look, "I don't understand what you mean?"

  "We found some clues in favor of Thomas Corley during the investigation, but due to insufficient evidence, we cannot confirm it yet, so we need your assistance."

   "Since the situation is favorable to Thomas Corley, why don't you talk to him himself?

  I don't know much about the case he committed, so I don't know how to help you. "

   "Did you know Thomas Corley's wife?"

   "Yes, I first met Georgina Corley and later became their family lawyer, and although the two of them divorced, that hasn't changed.

  They all trust me. "

   "Do you know Thomas Corley's experience in drug testing at Kallman Pharmaceuticals?"

  "Yes, he once thought about suing this company, but it is almost impossible to win the case. These large pharmaceutical companies without exception have a strong team of lawyers.

  I advised him to dispel this idea. "

   "What do you think about Thomas Corley's kidnapping, robbery, arson case?"

  Vicky Sabo shook her head, "I don't have any opinion.

  If Thomas Corley needs it, I will help him fight for his rights, that's all. "

  Luke changed the subject, "Did Thomas Corley leave a will?"

  Vicky Sabo shrugged, "Sorry, this is his privacy, I have no right to tell you."

  Luke took out a document and handed it to Vicky Sabo, "I want to see Thomas Corley's will."

  Vicky Saber took the documents to check, and said after a long time, "Thomas Corley did leave a will, but I didn't bring it, and it's still in the law firm."

   "I'll go to the law firm with you."

   Half an hour later, Luke rushed to the law firm where Vicky Saber was, and got Thomas Corley's will from her.

  Thomas Corley's will is mainly divided into three aspects. The first aspect is the mortgaged house. After the house is sold and the arrears are paid off, the money belongs to his daughter.

   Plus, he has $50,000 in cash, also owned by his daughter.

   Eventually, he leased a warehouse at Taber Storage, Inc., whose contents belonged to his ex-wife as a memento.

   Luke was not very interested in the first two wills, but the warehouse leased by the third will aroused Luke's interest.

  Police were not previously aware that Thomas Corley had leased the warehouse.

  Before, according to the speculation of the deputy team, in order to prevent the criminals behind the scenes from breaking the contract, the general culprits would leave evidence to identify the other party, and these evidences are most likely in the hands of close relatives or trusted friends.

  Luke met Thomas Corley's ex-wife and daughter. During the conversation with the two, Luke felt that the two should not know about Thomas Corley.

  Luke speculates that there are two situations. In the first situation, Thomas Corley gave the evidence to other trusted people, but Luke did not find out the existence of this person.

  The second possibility is that Thomas Corley has not given things to his ex-wife and daughter for the time being. Once something happens to him, these things will be sent to his wife and daughter, so Luke remembered the will.

  Luke guessed that the evidence to identify the man behind the scenes was probably in the leased warehouse.

  …

   Taber Warehouse Company.

   This is a chain of warehouse companies in California, headquartered in Los Angeles. The warehouse company is located in the southern suburbs of Los Angeles, covering a very large area.

  Luke led the team to Taber Storage Company and showed a search warrant.

  The person in charge of the storage company immediately took Luke and others to the warehouse rented by Thomas Corley.

  The person in charge of the storage company was also unable to open the door of the warehouse. After confirming the location of the warehouse, Luke had someone knock the door open with a door bumper.

  The warehouse area is not large, only about ten square meters.

   There are not many things in the warehouse, only three boxes are stacked in the innermost corner of the warehouse.

  Luke began to look at the items in the three boxes. The leftmost box contained some old dolls and toys, all of which were played by little girls.

  The middle box contains some clothes, books and photos worn by a little girl. The girl in the photo is very similar to Thomas Corley's daughter.

  The box on the far right contains some photos and miscellaneous items. The photos belong to Thomas Corley’s family of three, and most of the miscellaneous items are gifts, most likely given to his ex-wife.

  After rummaging carefully, Luke found a mobile phone in a black gift box. Luke tried to open it, but the phone was out of power. He found a charger before opening the iPhone.

  Luke carefully checked the phone and found several valuable voice and video from it.

  He turned on one of the voices, and the voice of Thomas Corley sounded, [My dear, please allow me to call you one last time.

  I love you, always have been, never changed.

  When you hear this recording, it means that I am dead, and it is an abnormal death.

  I... did something, and I don't know if it's right or wrong.

  By this time, you should already know that I took revenge on Kallman Pharmaceuticals.

   That's right, I did it.

  However, I did not tell the truth to the police. In fact, there is an instigator behind me. His purpose is to short Kalman Pharmaceuticals.

  I will take the blame for him, and in exchange, he will help take care of your mother and daughter.

  His name is Lennon Ochoa.

  You may not have the impression of this name, but his wife's brother is a director of Worcester Investment Company.

   You might have guessed it...

   That's right, the reason why you were promoted to assistant president was because of Lennon Ochoa's help.

  If I had died a natural death, I would have amended my will and you would not have heard this recording.

  If I didn't die normally, it was probably silenced.

  My dear, be careful and take care of your daughter...]

  This recording proves the speculation of Luke and others, and their hard work today is also worthwhile.

  But based on this recording alone, the evidence is still insufficient.

  Luke opened another video. Judging from the background, the place is very empty. It should be in a certain square with empty surroundings. A man appeared in the picture, wearing a decent suit and meticulously groomed blond hair.

  【"Mr. Thomas Corley, hello."

   "It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Lennon Ochoa."

   "Let's join forces to retaliate against Kallman Pharmaceuticals, what do you think?"

   "I took revenge on Kallman Pharmaceuticals for revenge, how about you?"

   "Oh, I'm simpler, interest.

  You revenge, I make money, we each get what we need. "

   "If I want revenge, I can do it myself, why should I join forces with you.

  I can provide you with funds, and I can also share some of your benefits.

  Even if you don't need money, your family will always need it. "

   "Mr. Lennon Ochoa, why me?"

   "Mr. Thomas Curley, I have been following you for a long time, and perhaps you are not even aware of this.

  I share a common hobby with you, which is gambling.

  I have known you for a long time, and I have also learned about your experience. I know that you have always harbored resentment towards Kallman Pharmaceuticals, but you have been slow to act only because you cannot part with your wife and daughter.

   Now that you are terminally ill and your time is numbered, there is nothing to worry about.

   Moreover, I can guarantee that as long as you cooperate with me, after you die, I can take care of your ex-wife and daughter, so that they have no worries about food and clothing.

  Although it can't be said to be rich and powerful, it must be better than now.

  Think about it.

  Even if you die, you have to die worthwhile. "]

  With this video evidence, Luke has confidence in his heart.

   It is basically certain that Lennon Ochoa is behind a series of attacks on Kallman Pharmaceuticals.

However, before officially arresting Lennon Ochoa, he still needs to talk to Thomas Corley. A rich man like Lennon Ochoa has a strong team of lawyers, and even the dead may be said to be alive. Yes, if you want to be completely sure, it is best to let Thomas Corley come forward to identify the other party.

  …

   Robbery and Murder Division, Interrogation Room.

  Thomas Corley was brought into the interrogation room, handcuffed in the interrogation chair Hassan.

  Luke put down the documents in his hand, and greeted, "Good afternoon, Mr. Corley."

  Thomas Corley yawned, "Is it afternoon? I can't even remember the time."

  Xiao Hei joked, "Don't worry, when you are transferred to the prison, there will be a wake-up service, and you won't mess up your schedule anymore."

  Thomas Corley shrugged, as if he didn't care. "Can I have a cup of coffee?"

  Luke nodded.

   "You really have too many demands." Xiao Hei complained and poured him a cup of coffee.

   "Thank you." Thomas Corley took a sip with a look of enjoyment, "As long as there is coffee, it's the same for me anywhere.

   What do you want from me?

  Do I need to identify the scene?

  No problem, I just want to go out to get some fresh air, and I still cherish it if I go out once less. "

   Luke didn't give him any more nonsense, "Do you know Lennon Ochoa?"

  Thomas Corley's face suddenly changed, and he took a sip of coffee, "No, is it the name of a certain movie star? I haven't paid attention to these in recent years."

   "He is not a star, he is the chairman of Pratt Investment Company, or your accomplice.

  We have found out that you have teamed up to retaliate against Kallman Pharmaceuticals.

  You are out for revenge, and he is out for profit. "

  Thomas Corley pondered for a long time, "Since you have found out, why are you looking for me?"

   "We need you to identify Lennon Ochoa."

  Thomas Corley smiled, "So what you said just now is your speculation, and you have no evidence."

  "No, we found evidence, and more than you imagined, I just give you a chance to do meritorious service, let you turn into a tainted witness, and get a favorable plea agreement, think about it."

   "I'm terminally ill, and any plea deal is meaningless to me."

   "I know, what you care about is your ex-wife and daughter, and you made a will to leave all your property and a warehouse to them.

  We found that warehouse and found evidence of your conspiracy with Lennon Ochoa. "

  Thomas Corley showed a look of depression, and smiled wryly, "Since you have found the evidence I left behind, does it matter whether I identify Lennon Ochoa?"

  If he was facing a general suspect, Luke might have arrested him by this time.

   But as a rich man, Lennon Ochoa, Luke has to face not only Lennon Ochoa, but also his legal team. If he is not careful, he may be caught by the other party.

  The best way is for Thomas Curley to identify Lennon Ochoa, let Thomas Curley attract the firepower of Lennon Ochoa and the legal team, so that Luke and the police can make it easier.

   "I think this is the best option, good for you and good for us."

  Thomas Corley was silent for a while, then drank the rest of his coffee, "OK, let me think about it."

  Luke heard the other party's perfunctory, "Listen, whether you cooperate or not, we will take action against Lennon Ochoa.

  Even if you don't want to identify him, he won't accept your favor, and he will still feel that you betrayed him.

   Your ex-wife and daughter may be affected by then. "Luke showed a look you know,

   "You can minimize the impact by working with the police early on."

  Thomas Corley glared at Luke, and said coldly, "Are you threatening me?"

  "No, the real threat to your ex-wife and daughter is Lennon Ochoa, you know this very well, otherwise you wouldn't have left those evidences in the warehouse.

  As long as you are willing to turn into a tainted witness, your ex-wife and daughter will also be protected by the police. "Luke leaned forward and said earnestly,

   "Hey, you're a smart guy, I'm sure you should know how to choose."
