Soviet Godfather

Vol 5 Chapter 6: French Open Tracking

Florence, Italy. Interpol, who traced the murder of experts from the European Conference of Posts and Telecommunications from France, are looking for clues in the vast archives with the assistance of the Italian police.

In the French hotel, the few cigarette butts left by the suspect became one of the only clues in the case. The cigarettes to which these cigarette butts belong are not produced in Europe, but from Cuban goods thousands of miles away. Because Cuba is a sanctioned country, it is impossible for Cuban cigarettes to legally flow into the European market. There must be a smuggling industry. Gangs are involved.

Since the murdered expert involved many European countries, the relevant criminal law has jurisdiction over the case. So this case is most suitable for Interpol to come forward. Under the guidance of evidence, finding the smuggling channel of this brand of Cuban cigarettes became the key to solving the case.

Interpol therefore has two general investigation directions, Spanish and Italian gangs. The Spanish gangs are weak, and they don’t seem to have gangs capable of organizing such a large-scale attack, so Interpol focused its investigation on Italian gangs.

The cartridge cases and fingerprints collected from the tunnel did not match in the police database. So although this is a key clue, the police can only temporarily give up if they can't continue the investigation through the clue.

"Look at several people. This is a batch of smuggled goods seized by our customs last month. Unfortunately, the people responsible for this batch of goods are all small players who only know some trivial things. We have not gained much." The police officer in charge of the reception took out several files and handed them to the person sent by Interpol and said.

"Thank you, thank you for your help!" The other party responded politely.

"Excuse me, can you help me find a police officer who is familiar with the local situation. I want to ask something about the local smuggling group?" the Interpol representative asked suddenly.

"I think Police Officer Garibaldi should be the most suitable candidate. He has the most informants in the entire police station. If you want to investigate anything, it is most appropriate to ask him for help." The police officer in charge of the reception replied.

"Is Police Officer Garibaldi here now? If it is convenient, I would like to hear his views on this matter!" the Interpol representative asked.

"Okay, let me go, Officer Garibaldi, call here!" The police officer in charge of the reception said he was about to go out.

"No, take me to find him! I want to ask in person!" the Interpol representative replied.

The two of them left the room as they said, and the Interpol representative followed behind the police officer in charge of the reception with a thick file. The two went through the corridor and came to the office of the police. The officer in charge of the reception called out: "Sergeant Garibaldi, this..."

"Spencer!" said the representative of Interpol.

"This Officer Spencer wants to ask you some questions. Do you have time now?"

"Please wait a moment, I'll come!" Officer Garibaldi said goodbye to his colleagues and walked over to where they were. Everyone found a separate room. Interpol's Spencer officer put the file under his arm. On one side, he took out a confidential document and gave it to Garibaldi, and said to him: "This is a case that happened in Toulouse, France last year. I would like to ask you to help us see what clues are. "

Garibaldi took the folder and opened it carefully, carefully examining its contents. This document records all the investigation results of the Toulouse tunnel murder case so far. It not only contains detailed written records, but also pictures of the scene. The blood-stained pictures of the murder scene make Garibaldi feel very familiar.

Garibaldi watched for more than forty minutes before reading the entire dossier. He pondered for a moment and said to Spencer: "Do you have anything else to grasp?"

"We found some Cuban cigarette butts on the scene. These cigarettes are smuggled goods. Only the smuggling gangs in Spain and Italy have this kind of cigarette. And we understand that this kind of cigarette is very expensive and is sold on the market. Yes, this is somewhat contradictory to what we learned in the place where the suspect lives. They don't look like rich, but smoke such good cigarettes!" Inspector Spencer said the question in his heart.

"I have seen the photos of the scene. The technique is simple and rude. If you suspect that the Mafia did it, I think you must have looked in the wrong direction. The Mafia will not act like this. It is too rash to leave so much. The clues are like being defenseless against the police!" Garibaldi analyzed according to his own thinking.

"Not the Mafia? Do you have any basis for this?" Spencer asked.

"If it is a Mafia, they will put bombs directly in the car most of the time~www.readwn.com~ You know that many prosecutors and judges in Italy die like this. They rarely use guns, just because they are afraid of staying. Traces. But the case you brought is not like this. The perpetrators had no scruples. Not only did they leave bullet shells, footprints and fingerprints, they didn’t even clean up the place they lived in. They didn’t care about the police chasing him, I I happen to know that some people do this, and those killers from Eastern Europe like to do it!" Garibaldi replied.

"Eastern Europe? Is it the KGB, or some other intelligence agent?" Spencer stood up alertly. If this is the case, it is definitely a political incident.

"Inspector Spencer, you don't understand our situation here. In recent years, more and more refugees have fled from the Iron Curtain. Many of them have special skills and have even been on the battlefield. There are also some Eastern European gangs. Will come here to be a killer. As long as you get a vote, you can rest for several years when you go back. The most important point is that there is no extradition agreement between us and the country on the Iron Curtain, and it is impossible to share case resources. They return to their home country, then we have no choice!" Police Officer Garibaldi shook his head and said helplessly.

"How did the gunmen from Eastern Europe find them? Are you helpless?" After hearing Garibaldi's analysis, Spencer felt suddenly open. Several doubts that the task force had been unable to figure out for the past few days finally got a plausible answer.

"Inspector Spencer, if you really want to continue the investigation, I think you'd better stay in Italy for a while. Our side is their key active area, and the Albanian gang on the other side of the sea is very active. The Hungarians from the north are also very powerful. But the strongest is the Slavs’ gang. They have colluded with the Mafia and seem to have a strong foothold locally."
