Madeline Hill looked noncommittal, glanced at everyone, and asked Raven Tate, “Raven, what do you think?” Raven Tate pondered and said, “The murderer must have checked the location in advance and knew that there was no one in the villa, so he sneaked into the villa at night to steal. He didn’t expect to meet the Lopez couple coming back. In order to avoid being exposed, he killed the Lopez couple in an emergency response…” “I just went to the garage to check the Lopez couple’s car. Their luggage has not been taken out of the car…” “There is a layer of dust on the car. It should have been in the airport parking lot for a long time!” He glanced at Harry Sanam, “According to what Ms. Hailey said just now, the Lightwood community has always been safe, so the murderer is most likely an outsider. ”

“Being able to enter the community and scout the area in advance, I think the murderer should have a legal identity to enter the community, such as a housekeeper, construction worker, municipal pipeline repairman, etc…”

“…”

Madeline Hill still had a noncommittal look on her face, and asked Thaddeus, “Teddeus, what do you think!”

Teddeus Martin hurriedly shook his head and said, “I agree with Raven’s analysis!”

Madeline Hill looked at Harry Sanam, “Harry, what about you?”

Harry Sanam frowned, “My idea is the same as Raven’s. We only need to go to the HOA to retrieve which outsiders have entered the community recently. I believe we can find clues to the murderer!”

Although he had realized it a long time ago, Harry Sanam still felt a little happy in his heart.

Madeline Hill left Locke to the last question, which was to treat him as a deputy captain.

But he quickly accepted his fate. It was impossible for him to compete with Locke.

Not to mention Locke’s background, he has money and connections, and this guy really has something in his mind!

How to compete?

Unless he sells his chrysanthemum to Director Danny Aiello, there might be a chance to fight for it.

Thinking of this, Harry Sanam’s chrysanthemum tightened and he instantly gave up the idea.

It doesn’t seem to be a bad thing for Locke to be the deputy captain. With such a boss with a strong background, his life should be more comfortable!

When Harry Sanam was absent, Madeline Hill looked at Locke, “Locke, what do you think?”

Locke looked very relaxed. Jane Horvath was right. He finally encountered a normal case.

During this period, most of the cases encountered by their second team were related to politics, and ended in a whimper.

He replied: “Raven and Harry’s ideas should be correct, but we should not underestimate the murderer and think that the murderer is simple!”

“The forensic department did not find any effective clues at the scene, which is enough to show the murderer’s caution and cunning. Therefore, I think the community surveillance is unlikely to find any clues…”

“Also, judging from the murderer’s theft method, it is definitely not their first time. I think we should check the record of burglary cases in Los Angeles this year…”

“The safe in the cloakroom is a product of Phoenix in the 1990s, but the mechanical lock structure of that safe is very complicated. I just searched and found that this safe has been discontinued for a long time. The murderer can open this safe, which is enough to show that They actually have professional theft techniques…”

“So, I think the murderer should be a professional theft gang!”

“From the scars on the two bodies, the murderer obviously doesn’t kill often. Their killing methods are very clumsy and panicked…”

“The first two knives that pierced Carl Lopez’s throat were enough to be fatal, and the murderer added three more knives…”

“The wound on Casey Lopez’s abdomen has a straight line distance of 15 cm between the two knives. This is too unprofessional!”

“Also, in fact, to know the situation in the Lightwood community, you don’t have to come in to check it out. Don’t forget what is opposite the community?”

Teddys Martin blurted out: “Griffith Observatory!”

“bingo !”

Locke snapped his fingers, “Professional theft gangs will not easily leave traces. They will not only scout the place, but also investigate the information of the villa owner. This time they ran into the Lopez couple, which is probably an accident…”

“I think something must have happened to the Lopez couple, forcing them to end their trip and go home early…”

Locke is naturally familiar with the theft gangs that belong to the gray world. The profession he envied the most was thieves.

Eat with skills, free and unconstrained.

More importantly, you can live in the sun.

At that time, he taught himself lock picking skills in order to leave the organization one day.

Perhaps, he can become a free and easy thief.

Locke’s reasoning almost overturned Raven Tate’s previous speculation.

EveryoneThey fell into silence, with different expressions.

Raven Tate nodded and said, “I agree more with Locke’s reasoning. I really underestimated the murderer!”

Harry Sanam’s face was a little hot. He always thought of himself as a senior detective in the team and coveted the position of deputy captain because he felt he was qualified.

Just now he was dissatisfied with Madeline Hill’s choice of Locke to succeed the deputy captain.

At this moment, he was completely convinced!

Locke is indeed qualified to challenge Tom Williams’ title of detective!

Madeline Hill stared at Harry Sanam expressionlessly and said coldly: “Harry, when you were investigating the scene just now, did you use your mobile phone to book a restaurant for tonight’s date?”

Harry Sanam’s expression froze, and he was embarrassed, but he still said frankly: “Yes…”

Madeline Hill’s face sank, “Now you know why your brain is rusty! Although Locke also picked up girls, he didn’t delay his work…”

Locke immediately felt offended and said dissatisfiedly: “Captain, I was just discussing the case with forensic doctor Murphy…”

Madeline Hill didn’t He ignored him and ordered directly: “Raven, call Brian and ask him to check the records of theft cases in Los Angeles in the past three years. In addition, I need you to check the time when the Lopez couple went to Europe this time and why they came back early?” He said to Harry Sanam, who looked embarrassed: “Harry, you and Jack continue to retrieve the community’s surveillance and check the registration of foreign vehicles in the past month. This line is not impossible. In addition, I need to know which villas in the community are uninhabited…” If it is a professional thief, then more than one family may be robbed. In addition, the murderer may continue to hide in the community after killing people. Madeline Hill finally looked at Locke, “Locke, I need you to verify whether the situation of this villa can be observed from the Griffith Observatory?” “If your reasoning is correct, then how did the theft gang avoid surveillance and sneak into the community, and how did they evacuate?”
