North America’s toughest police: starting with the Los Angeles Patrol

Seeing Tony Gerard’s firm attitude, Locke didn’t say anything else. After all, there was a long time to go.

However, he became more and more curious about Tony Gerard. What happened to this guy? It seemed that he had to ask someone about it.

After entering the hospital inpatient department, Locke went straight to the front desk. He originally just wanted to ask the ward numbers of the three survivors, but he didn’t expect the female nurse to be very enthusiastic and offered to take them there personally. She also introduced the conditions of the three patients to the two along the way.

Locke already knew the names of the three survivors. They were 21-year-old Aishwarya, 19-year-old Katya, and 18-year-old Pooja, all of whom were young girls.

According to the enthusiastic nurse Emma, ​​the injuries of the three were not serious. The most seriously injured was Aishwarya, who had broken ribs and abrasions on her face.

As for Katya and Pooja, they only had concussions and minor abrasions.

Locke saw the report that Aishwarya was closest to Rigal Singh at the time. The shock wave of the explosion blew her away and hit the wall, causing broken ribs and abrasions on the right side of her face.

According to the previous confession, the three of them were from a devout Sikh family. Because of their practice and faith, they lived in Rigar Singh’s house. There were three more girls with them.

Because this case is very sensitive, there are patrolmen on duty outside the wards of the three survivors.

When the nurse Emma left, she straightened her chest and asked Locke to remember her name. She also stuffed a business card into Locke’s pocket and said that if he wanted to know about the follow-up of the condition, he could call her at any time.

Staring at Emma’s charming figure, Tony Gerard touched his chin, “I suddenly understand why Harry Sumner dressed like a gigolo. It turns out that handsome men can really use their faces!”

Damn, you are so poisonous. No wonder you are not popular.

Because you have a daughter, I won’t bother with you.

Locke ignored Tony Gerard’s insinuation and skillfully lifted his clothes to show the detective badge on his waist to the patrolman on duty, “Good job, man, Robbery and Murder Division, this is Deputy Captain Tony Gerard, I’m Detective Locke Lee, what’s the situation?”

After greeting the two, the patrolman replied, “Nothing unusual, their families are with them, and laughter can be heard coming out, and they are in a good mood…”

Locke couldn’t help but think of the group of angry believers he saw at the door of Rigal Singh’s residence before. So, the three survivors were not as sad and angry about Rigal Singh’s death as other believers.

He didn’t say much to the patrolman, knocked on the door, and after getting permission, he took the lead in pushing the door and walking into Aishwarya’s ward.

Tony Gerard didn’t care at all about Locke’s taking over the show, but found it very interesting. He found that he couldn’t see through Locke more and more, and he was not angry just now.

He nodded to the patrolman and followed him in.

…

In the ward, Locke glanced at Aishwarya on the bed. She was a dark-skinned South Asian woman with a round face, but her aesthetics were not on the same level as his. However, she was young.

After introducing himself, he said to the middle-aged woman who should be Aishwarya’s mother: “Madam, we want to talk to Aishwarya alone…”

The middle-aged woman frowned and said: “Didn’t we record the transcript yesterday?”

Locke said sincerely: “Madam, because of the murder of Rigal Singh, the entire Indian community is now in turmoil, so we want to catch the murderer of Rigal Singh as soon as possible. I hope you can cooperate…”

The middle-aged woman turned her head to look at Aishwarya on the bed. Aishwarya said: “I am willing to cooperate, Mom, you go out first…”

After the middle-aged woman went out, Locke turned his head and looked at Tony Gerard standing by the door. Seeing that he had no intention of coming over, he asked Aishwarya himself.

He started by asking about Aishwarya’s daily work. Aishwarya became more and more relaxed in front of the handsome and gentleman Locke, but Locke suddenly asked: “We found that Rigal Singh is an ancient yoga master. Are you also one of his sexual partners?”

Aishwarya’s expression froze, her hands clenched into fists, and a look of grief appeared in her eyes. She nodded and said: “Yes, I am one of the master’s partners. The master has been helping us purify our souls and guiding us in life philosophy…”

“We?”

Locke immediately captured the key information, “So Katya and Pooja are also!”

Aishwarya nodded and said fiercely: “You must catch the murderer. This is the persecution of Sikhism by the Bharat government. They are afraid of us…”

Locke asked Rigal Singh if he had other enemies. Aishwarya immediately refuted, saying how great and noble Rigal Singh was, and everyoneThey all respect him…

Locke has discovered that Aishwarya has a tendency to be brainwashed. She already believes that the murderer is the Bharat government, and she keeps saying that the United States should put pressure on Bharat. It should be impossible to get anything out of her. He turned his head and looked at Tony Gerard.

Tony Gerard nodded and left the ward first.

Locke thanked Aishwarya and followed her out of the ward.

At the window of the corridor, Locke saw that Tony Gerard did not go to the second ward, so he walked over. The guy took out his mouthwash again, drank a sip, and turned his head to ask: “Do you suspect that the murderer is related to these girls?” Locke nodded, “Religious people like Rigal Singh enjoy high prestige in the community. Such people rarely have personal grudges. He has a complicated relationship with these young and beautiful girls around him, because vendettas caused by mating rights are not uncommon…” Tony Gerard nodded, “It is indeed possible, but I have to remind you that we handle cases by constantly collecting clues and evidence, unraveling the mystery, connecting all the clues, and finding suspects. But you seem to have preset a suspect in your mind, which is wrong!” “…” Locke was stunned. It was true. After seeing the room full of sexual murals, he subconsciously felt that Rigal Singh’s death should be related to the matter between men and women. Tony Gerard saw that Locke had listened, and continued: “In fact, this cannot be said to be wrong. From another perspective, this may be your intuition. You already have the potential to become a detective. When we handle cases, we are not afraid of having no clues, but we are afraid of having no ideas in our minds. You can continue to investigate according to your ideas. Anyway, Harry is there to back you up…” His face sank, “The data shows that Aishwarya has been with Rigal Singh for five years, Katya for three years, and Pooja for two years. The other three girls who were not injured were also sent to Rigal Singh at a similar age. Therefore, your suspicion is very likely. This guy is a beast. Not only these three girls, but also the interpersonal relationships of the other girls should be checked…” So Locke did not rush to see the remaining two girls, but called Skye Spears and asked her to provide the family members and network of the six girls in Rigal Singh’s residence. He called Catherine Murphy again. Catherine was surprised to receive Locke’s call and even more surprised to hear Locke’s request.
