Los Angeles Detective

  Chapter 89 Appraisal Card (110 for the first order!)

  Rett's face was serious, and he let out a long sigh, "I'm going to make a phone call."

  The deputy team reminded, "Don't forget to buy more time, now there are not one dead, but four."

  Rett waved his hand, but did not answer.

  Susan gave a thumbs up, "What else do other people have to say?"

  Raymond glanced at the corpse in the pool of blood, "This should be the scene of the first crime.

  The victim was sentenced to an "execution-style shooting", which should have been a pistol used from the wound.

  If the shot was fired in the living room, the neighbors should be able to hear it.

  But according to the description of the patrolling police, the surrounding neighbors did not hear the gunshots, indicating that the suspect probably used a muffler.

  The approval review of silencers is stricter than that of guns, and the price is often higher than the gun itself.

   The suspect is either a professional or not short of money. "

  Susan nodded, and ordered, "Raymond, keep an eye on it, and get the bullet-indentation report as soon as possible.

  Marcus and Jenny collect surveillance cameras around them.

   David, Luke inform the victim's brother that we need to talk to him. "

   "Yes, captain."

   Everyone investigated separately.

   Luke scanned the scene, remembering that he had a newly drawn card, an appraisal card.

   Haven't used it yet, don't know the specific function.

   From the literal meaning, it is likely to be related to the scene of the crime, but there are many evidences at the scene, including corpses, blood, bullet marks, footprints, etc. It is not clear which item to identify.

  He walked to the corpse and subconsciously thought of using the 'identification card'.

no response.

   Walked to the bloodstain, but did not respond.

   Walking to the shoe prints left by the suspected murderer, a set of data appeared in his mind.

  【Shoes, thick-soled rubber shoes

Sex: Male

  Height, 180-185CM

  Weight, 85-90 kg

  Age, between 40 and 45 years old. 】

   This is a footprint identification card.

  He is no stranger to footprint identification, and Huaguo is unique in this respect.

  People have different gender, age, height, weight, and walking posture, and the characteristics of footprints will also have corresponding differences.

   Through a lot of research and experience, identification experts can deduce the suspect's physical characteristics through footprints and shoe prints.

  Luke met a provincial and departmental footprint identification expert, who used the shoe prints to infer the suspect's physical characteristics, physical defects, and walking habits, with almost no big errors.

  This technique is more based on experience, and it is difficult to be proficient without decades of research.

   There are only a handful of experts in Huaguo who are proficient in footprint identification.

   This technology is powerful.

  Luke already knows the physical characteristics of the suspect, which is especially important for identifying the suspect.

   It stands to reason that such important information should be shared and reported in time.

  Hesitating again and again, he didn't think about how to explain the fingerprint identification.

  Since it's inconvenient, let's not talk about it.

  As long as you know what you can use.

  …

  A red Ferrari quickly rushed into the streets of the Maca community.

   stopped near the home of the deceased Riley Harry.

   A white middle-aged man got out of the car and pushed away the reporters crowded at the gate of the courtyard, "fuck, you idiots, get out of the way."

  The patrolman put his right hand on the gun and blocked the middle-aged man with his left hand, "Stop! This place is under martial law, you can't go in."

   "This is my sister's house. My name is Maguire Harry. The police department asked me to come."

   "Come with me." The patrolman opened the cordon and led the man into the yard.

   "Detective, Mr. Maguire is looking for you."

  Luke walked to the door, "Leave it to me." He looked at the middle-aged white man, "Are you Maguire Harry?"

   "Yes, where is my sister?"

   "The police are investigating the scene, you can't go in yet."

   "Is she...really dead?"

"Yes."

  Maguire scratched her hair vigorously, choked up and said, "Damn...who killed her?"

   "We have just received a report and are still under investigation. Please come here to find out something."

   "I still can't accept it, why did I die..." Maguire sat on the steps, taking a deep breath with his mouth open.

  Luke didn't urge, comparing the footprint identification data with Maguire.

  Gender, age, height match.

  But Maguire is thin, it is impossible to weigh 85 kilograms, and he is not the owner of the shoe print.

   After waiting for about ten minutes, Maguire raised his head and asked, "Can I see her now?"

   "The on-site investigation will take some time. You can assist me in taking notes first. The more information the police have, the faster the case can be solved."

   "How to make a transcript?"

   "I ask you to answer." Luke turned on the body camera, "Are you close to Riley Harry?"

   "Of course, we have a good relationship since we were young. We depend on each other and have dinner together every week."

   "When was the last time you saw her?"

"Yesterday at noon."

"The specific time?"

   "About twelve o'clock, we had dinner together. The lunch she made by herself was not very delicious, but...

  I still can't believe she really left. Maguire cried, "When I was young, I never knew what loneliness was.

  When you reach a certain age, especially after your parents leave, you suddenly feel lonely.

  Lai Li can give me the warmth of my family and is my last resort.

  There will be no more…”

  Luke asked, "Regarding Ms. Riley's murder, do you have any suspects?"

  “My sister has a firm political philosophy, supports women’s rights, promotes immigration bills, and calls for a ban on guns. She has been advocating for these things and has received some threats, but she has never compromised.

  No personal grievances.

   She is a great woman and I can't think of anyone who would hurt her. "

   "Is she feeling abnormal recently?"

   "No, her mood has always been stable."

   Jenny came over and whispered something to Luke.

  Luke nodded and continued to ask, "Is the license plate number 7leb398 Mercedes-Benz yours?"

"Yes."

   "We discovered through the surveillance video that this car has been to Riley's house at one o'clock in the morning. How do you explain it?"

   "This car is in my name, but it is usually used by my sister, and she also hired a driver."

   "What's the driver's name?"

   "Badman Pall."

   "Thank you for your assistance. If you think of new clues, you can contact me anytime." Luke handed the other party a business card.

   "I will." Maguire put the business card in his pocket, "Can I see my sister?"

   "Someone will contact you later."

  …

  In the evening, the police station.

  After a day of investigation, the team members returned to the police station one after another.

  Susan called a meeting to summarize the progress of the investigation.

  Susan put a report on the projector, "The forensic doctor has completed the preliminary autopsy.

  Deceased, Riley Harry

  Death time, between 11:00 pm and 2:00 am on April 30.

  Before he died, he was beaten and had defensive injuries.

   Fatal wound was a gunshot wound to the head.

  In addition, the fingers found in the mouth of the deceased belonged to three different people.

  Fingerprints have been destroyed, and DNA identification is in progress, and the specific identity cannot be determined for the time being.

   It can be determined that the three races are African, White, and Mexican. "

  The deputy team said, "The addition of three victims at once complicates the case and adds a lot of uncertainties.

   At first glance, the scene looks a bit like a robbery, but the robber will not be perverted enough to put his finger in the mouth of the deceased.

   Feels more like a vendetta. "

  Jenny said, "We checked the nearby surveillance and found that the Mercedes-Benz with the license plate number 7leb398 had been to the deceased's house during the time of the crime.

   This car belonged to the deceased's younger brother, but according to the deceased's younger brother, it was always used by the deceased himself, and he specially hired a driver, Badman Pall.

  Badman Pall would pick up the deceased to and from get off work on time, but today Badman Pall did not come, and the car also disappeared. "

  Jenny puts a document on the projector.

  Name, Badman Pall

Sex: Male

  Date of Birth, August 13, 1992

  Mobile phone number, 6268737811

  Address, No. 23 Guman Street

  Jenny continued, "We tried to contact the driver, Badman Pall, but the phone number was lost and the car was also lost.

  In addition, we went to the home according to the contact address, but not only did not find him, but his family members also disappeared for no reason. "

  The deputy team asked, "Why didn't you notify the car manufacturer to assist in positioning?"

  Matthew replied, "I have contacted, and the car manufacturer tried to locate, but failed."

  Luke asked, "Can the driver's identity be seen clearly in the surveillance?"

  Jenny shook her head, "The driver wore a hat, mask, and gloves to cover himself tightly, and with the light rain last night, he could hardly see the suspect's appearance.

  According to the current clues, Badman Pall is acting suspiciously, which is also in line with the characteristics of an acquaintance committing the crime, so the suspicion is very high. "

  Jenny's analysis is reasonable. From the known clues, Badman Pall is indeed more suspicious.

  However, Luke still has some clues that others don't know, that is the suspect data obtained from the footprint identification.

  Badman Pall is only 30 years old this year, which is far from the 40-45 age estimated by the footprints.

   Considering that Badman Pall's whereabouts are indeed suspicious.

  Luke feels that he probably knows something, or is the owner of one of the fingers.

  If this is the case, it can explain why people did not appear.

   But how did the car disappear?
