Topanga State Park does not belong to Los Angeles City, it belongs to Los Angeles County, adjacent to Santa Monica and Brentwood, not far from UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) and Beverly Hills.

The park covers an area of ​​about 40 square kilometers and is the largest park around Los Angeles.

The park has mountains, canyons, and coastline landscapes, with beautiful scenery. Many citizens like to come here for hiking.

The houses around Topanga are also a good choice for Los Angeles people, because they are close to Los Angeles and have a good environment.

Especially Topanga Canyon, although it cannot compare with the neighboring Malibu, there are also many large villas worth more than 10 million.

When Locke arrived at the address located by Madeline Hill, he only saw a long line of cars on the side of the road, most of which were LAPD patrol cars.

There were also several patrolmen on duty, and their hearts skipped a beat. It seemed that he guessed right that the scene was in the mountains.

He had just parked the car when a black LAPD walked towards him.

Locke pushed the door and got out of the car. Just as he was about to show his badge, he found that the LAPD was an acquaintance. It was Henry, the young black police officer who helped to retrieve Sanjis Camilo’s body from Santa Monica Beach.

“Hi, Henry…”

“Hi, Detective Locke…”

Henry greeted Locke with a mouthful of white teeth and took the initiative to say, “It’s a long way to the scene, about 5 kilometers from here…”

He looked at Locke’s clothes and shoes and smiled, “It seems you are ready…”

In addition to driving a Land Rover Defender, Locke specially wore a pair of Scarpa hiking shoes and wore light hiking clothes.

Scarpa hiking shoes

He was very familiar with Topanga State Park. When he was studying at UCLA, he often came here to fight in the wild.

Locke looked up at the not-too-steep mountain next to him and asked, “Have the people from the Detective Bureau arrived?”

Henry shook his head and said, “Captain Hill, Deputy Captain Gerard, Inspector Harry Sumner, Detective Jack Talbot, Detective Raven Tate are all up, and the Forensic Science Department…”

Locke touched his nose. Fortunately, there was still Brian Smith, otherwise he would be the last one?

He took out his mobile phone and checked. The location had been updated in the group. It really took about five kilometers to get there. He opened the trunk and took out an outdoor backpack from it.

Seeing Henry looking at him in astonishment, he smiled and said, “Water, energy bars, and insect repellent. I don’t know how long I will stay in the mountains. It’s better to be prepared…”

If he were alone, he wouldn’t need to carry this thing at all.

Henry gave him a thumbs up, “You deserve to be a detective! You are thoughtful!”

Locke asked, “I heard it was a dismemberment case. Do you have any information to share?”

Henry replied, “At 5 o’clock in the morning, two UCLA students who were hiking found something that looked like human tissue on the mountain, so they called the police. The police officers in our division arrived at the scene and confirmed that it was human torso tissue, so they reported the case to the detective bureau…”

Locke nodded and asked, “Doesn’t Topanga State Park belong to Los Angeles County? Why was the case handed over to LAPD?”

Henry was stunned, “I’m sorry, I don’t know about this question…”

“It doesn’t matter, I just asked casually…”

Locke shrugged and bumped fists with Henry, “David doesn’t seem to be here. Wait for my call. When this case is over, I will buy you a drink. Say hello to David for me, and Lewis and Carl…”

Henry was a little confused. Why are there Lewis and Carl!

Locke waved to the three patrolmen not far away, crossed the drainage ditch, and followed a trail next to it up the mountain.

The forest in Topanga State Park is not dense, and it does not give people a sense of oppression that blocks out the sky. It is mainly composed of bushes, so the view is extremely wide, and it is a good place for hiking.

Locke took out a sun hat from the space, put on sunglasses, and walked on the mountain path, like a hiking tourist, breathing fresh air, looking at the beautiful and magnificent scenery, and his mood became inexplicably happy.

The working status of a detective is indeed completely different from that of a patrolman. It is no longer so unchanging, and it will not be bound in that police car. It is full of surprises and unknowns.

For example, he began to look forward to the identity of the deceased this time.

It is not that he has no sympathy, but because the identity of the deceased is closely related to the system’s rewards.

Locke’s previous speculation was not wrong. Only by being a detective can the system’s reward mechanism be maximized. This is the correct way to open the system.

Because he no longer needs to rely on killing to get rewards, the deceased in the case can also bring him rewards.

When Locke upgraded the “doctor” reward last night, he found that there were two more learning cards, namelyMating (5 years of experience) and Ancient Yoga (5 years of experience), the justice value also increased by 100.

These rewards should come from Rigar Singh.

Locke’s mind moved, and the latest system panel appeared in front of him.

Learning card:

Acting (5 years of experience), beautiful voice (5 years of experience), mating (5 years of experience), ancient yoga (5 years of experience), after lighting up, the experience is added to the spiritual mentor, and the experience is accumulated to 20 years.

Hindi was naturally added to the language master. Now the language master and the spiritual mentor have accumulated 20 years of experience respectively, but they still haven’t been upgraded.

Locke speculated that it would take 30 years of experience to upgrade the talent skill L2 to L3.

According to the frequency of closing criminal cases in the murder department, it is only one or two cases.

However, according to the system’s certification, not everyone will explode experience. After all, many people spend their entire lives as mediocre people.

Therefore, some cases may not explode rewards.

The skill column is still a bit complicated. It would be great if I could get another fusion card.

It takes at least 40-50 minutes for ordinary people to walk a 5-kilometer mountain road, but for Locke, 30 minutes is enough. This is because he deliberately slowed down the speed and didn’t want to be too shocking.

Soon Locke saw the white protective suits of the forensic department, and suddenly his phone rang.

Madeline Hill asked in a bad tone: “Locke, where are you?”

Locke hesitated and said: “Captain, was it you who just squatted down in the bushes to pee?”

“…”

The phone was hung up instantly.
