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

Everyone didn’t expect Madeline Hill to suddenly make a dirty joke while talking about work seriously. They were stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter.

“Hahaha…”

“Jesus ,Captain, what are you talking about? ”

“Harry, was Ms. Hailey satisfied last night?”

“…”

Harry Sanam rolled his eyes, took a sip of coffee slowly, and said confidently: “Ms. Hailey said I am better than her two ex-husbands. She has never been so happy. She even wants to date me officially…”

Locke gave him a thumbs up and smiled: “Harry, maybe you should ask the captain to apply for some labor fees for you. After all, dating Ms. Hailey is now considered a job!”

Harry Sanam looked at Madeline Hill with expectation, “Captain…”

“…”

Madeline Hill naturally ignored him. She asked Raven Tate: “The video of Griffith Observatory, didn’t you find anything?”

Raven Tate shook his head and said: “I haven’t finished watching it yet. Many tourists who go there wear sun hats and sunglasses, so it’s hard to find any abnormalities…”

Brian Smith also said: “I didn’t find anything here either. There are too many videos. I need more time. Uh, Captain, it’s OK, we can start!”

Soon, photos of five pieces of jewelry and their corresponding valuations appeared on the screen.

The conference room fell into a brief silence, because the total valuation of the five pieces of jewelry did not exceed 12,000 US dollars, which was lower than the price Jessica Lopez had estimated before.

However, the price of the music box even exceeded some jewelry, and it was worth 2,200 US dollars.

Locke frowned. The value of these jewelry was far lower than expected. What was the motive of the thieves?

His eyes finally fell on the egg-shaped music box. Is there any secret hidden in this music box?

According to the expert’s appraisal, this music box is an antique from Russia in the 19th century. This egg-shaped music box is very popular among Russian nobles and is very expensive. It was a work of art that Russian nobles showed off at that time.

However, this kind of art that represents pleasure and corruption quickly disappeared with the gunshots of the October Revolution.

Music box, Russian nobles…

Locke turned his head to look at Thaddeus Martin. Could it be that Thaddeus was right this time!

According to Jessica Lopez, the five pieces of jewelry were all her grandmother’s relics, and only the music box came from her grandfather Thomas Harrison.

Thomas Harrison was an explorer and collector, so the clue seemed to be straightened out.

The music box had a secret, so the thieves were thinking about it.

Locke could think of this, so could Madeline Hill and Harry Sanam.

The Lopez couple had nothing to be remembered, and Carl Lopez had a clean background. Only Casey Lopez had a father who was an explorer and collector with a complicated background.

People like Thomas Harrison often carry secrets.

Harry Sanam propped his chin with one hand, “So, the thieves’ target is this music box?”

Teddys Martin said, “Have you seen “Cast”? There is a plot in it where the music box is related to a treasure…”

Jack Talbot blurted out, “So, this music box hides the secret of a treasure. A group of mysterious people have been tracking the secret of this treasure. They found that collector Thomas Harrison had a music box. After Thomas Harrison died, the music box fell into the hands of his daughter Kathy Lopez. So the mysterious people sneaked into Kathy Lopez’s house to find the music box, but they didn’t expect the Lopez couple to suddenly return home…”

Raven Tate said speechlessly, “Jack, maybe you should go to Hollywood to be a screenwriter. You think this is a movie! Uh, I remember that the third part of “National Treasure” hasn’t been filmed yet? You still have a chance…”

At this time, Locke’s mobile phone rang. It was Jessica Lopez calling.

He quickly answered the phone and turned on the speaker, “Ms. Lopez, have you thought of any clues?”

Jessica Lopez said, “I got a call from Catherine. About the music box, uh, I asked her to tell you…”

After a pause of a few seconds, a hoarse and unfamiliar female voice came from the phone, “Inspector Locke, this is Catherine Lopez. About the music box, my grandfather Thomas Harrison once told me that the music box contains the treasure of Russian Tsar Nicholas II. Thomas laughed when he said this, and I always thought he was joking and didn’t take it to heart…”

“If what Thomas said is true, then the murder of Carl and Casey may be related to the treasure in the music box…”

“…”

After Locke hung up the phone, everyone looked atThaddeus Martin and Jack Talbot looked a little bit unbelievable, they were actually right.

Harry Sanam stared at the music box on the screen and said: “Jesus, it really has something to do with this thing, there is actually a treasure!”

Jack Talbot said proudly: “Hahaha, I actually said it, what did I say, I also have a brain, okay!”

Thaddeus Martin murmured: “It really has something to do with the treasure…”

Brian Smith quickly tapped on the computer a few times, “Wait, don’t you know the history of Russia? Do you know who Nicholas II is? The treasure of Tsar Nicholas II, this is simply nonsense!”

“…”

Everyone looked at him in confusion. Americans can’t even understand the history of their own country, let alone Russia.

Locke has only heard of the Tsar. Isn’t the Tsar the emperor of the Russian Empire?

The emperor is the richest in the world, isn’t it normal to have a treasure?

Brian Smith immediately projected the information he had searched for onto the screen. “Nicholas II was the last Tsar of Russia. When he was in power, a revolution broke out in Russia in 1917. He, his queen, and the princes and princesses became prisoners. After being imprisoned for more than a year, Nicholas II and his family and servants were executed…”

“When Nicholas II was in power, he was the most powerful person in the Russian Empire. He had no need to hide his wealth…”

“When he was overthrown and imprisoned, he had lost power. The whole of Russia was a Soviet socialist country, and all his wealth was confiscated…”

“It was impossible for Nicholas II to hide his wealth, and he had no chance to do so. I think this is most likely a joke by Thomas Harrison…”
