Legendary FBI Detective

Chapter 244: Believers

Queens, New York.

Outside an apartment in a certain community, Roan, Ryder, and Lacey stood in front of the door with weapons in their hands.

Glancing at each other, Roan counted down to three, and then Ryder lifted his foot and kicked hard towards the door.

Boom!

"FBI!"

"Do not move!"

Yelling, the trio quickly inspected every room in the apartment before encountering a young white woman in the kitchen with headphones on and waving her body as she made dinner.

The young woman turned her head and saw Roan and Ryder suddenly appearing, and the Glock 18 in their hands, she was startled and screamed.

"We are the FBI!"

At this time, Lacey, who had checked all the rooms, came back and shook her head at Roan. Roan frowned slightly, pulled off the earphones on the woman's head, and asked:

"Where's Richard Meier?"

"I don't know, he's not here!"

Slowly calming down her mood, the young woman named Irene explained:

"It's been two months since we broke up! What are you doing with Richard?"

"We suspect that he is related to a serial murder case."

Roan put away the Glock 18 and said in a concentrated voice:

"Do you know where Richard Meyer is? We need to talk to him.

Alternatively, you can also explain why you have been using Richard Meier's credit card. "

"What?"

Hearing the word "serial murder case", Irene took a deep breath, waved her hands again and again to express that those cases had absolutely nothing to do with her, and then explained everything.

"I met Richard a year ago."

Irene's identity is a waiter working in a high-end restaurant, and the two met when Richard took people there for dinner.

At the time Richard was attractive and a factory owner, so Irene soon moved in with him.

Those toys were also purchased together when the two lived together. After all, Irene was young and played with many tricks, and Richard was also willing to try new things.

Hearing this, Lacey and Ryder looked at each other. It seemed that they had made a mistake in their previous judgment. Richard was not gay.

Roan nodded calmly, and continued to ask:

"And after that?"

"Richard's factory went bankrupt after that."

Erin sat on the sofa with a complicated expression on her face:

"Richard had a breakdown at the time and started drinking too much.

A month and a half ago, Richard sent me a message out of the blue, saying that he was going to leave New York to go out for a walk, and then I never saw him again, only occasionally contacted by message. "

A month and a half ago, the words "send message" and "send message" made Roan's eyes narrow, and he thought of a possibility:

"You mean, you've never spoken to Richard on the phone since then?"

Eileen seemed to have thought of something, swallowed and nodded:

"That's right."

Ryder and Lacey looked at each other, and both thought of a situation.

Roan said directly:

"Can you still reach Richard by message now?"

"No."

Erin shook her head, walked into the bedroom and found a mobile phone, and said:

"I messaged him a week ago asking when he was going back to New York and he never got back to me."

"Fu-k."

Ryder slapped himself on the head and cursed, while Roan took the phone and handed it to Lacey, saying:

"Lacey, immediately take this phone back to the No. 5 investigation team and let Mona try to see if she can use this phone to locate the location of Richard's phone at this time."

"OK."

Taking the phone and nodding, Lacey quickly walked out of the apartment and started the SUV to return to the No. 5 investigation team.

In the apartment, Ryder poured himself and Roan a cup of coffee, poured another cup of coffee and handed it to Irene, and said in a deep voice:

"Ms. Irene, you must have guessed some possible state of Richard at this time.

So I hope you will think about it carefully, whether there is anything wrong with Richard's words and actions before he left you. "

After receiving the coffee, Irene's face turned pale and her hands trembled.

After thinking for a long time, Irene shook her head:

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Detective, I don't know what is wrong with you, because Richard was bankrupt at the time, and the whole person has always been wrong."

"Will Richard repeat certain words after drinking?"

Roan sat opposite Irene and slowly guided:

"Such as repeatedly scolding someone?"

"It does exist."

Erin nodded:

"He kept saying that he misjudged the wrong person, trusted the wrong person and so on."

Ryder, who was sitting next to him, glanced at Irene, and he knew who Richard was scolding.

Roan continued to ask:

"Did Richard say what he planned to do? Like revenge or something."

"No."

Erin shook her head:

"I didn't hear what Richard said about revenge, nor did I hear what he planned to do. I only heard him say that this is God's punishment for him."

"God?"

Roan's brain turned sharply, as if he had discovered something:

"Richard is a Christian?"

"Yes, Richard has always believed in Protestantism."

Irene replied subconsciously, then suddenly remembered something, her body froze suddenly, she turned her head and said in a stuttering voice:

"Mr. Detective, I've thought of something.

After Richard went bankrupt, every time he sobered up from alcoholism, he drove to a church for confession.

And Richard texted me that he had drunk a lot the day he left New York, and I never saw those two cars again. "

"Excellent Erin, this is great information!"

Roan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked where the address of the church was.

Ryder next to him also grinned, straightened up and stood up, could it be the hands of the pastor of the church?

"That church is in New Jersey."

Erin found a Bible that was pressed under the bed. Inside was a bookmark with the address of the church.

"Good."

After receiving the bookmark, Roan and Ryder immediately left the apartment, and then... took out their mobile phones to call the SWAT operation team.

On the one hand, they need their help to arrest people later, on the other hand, the SUV of the No. 5 investigation team was driven away, and Roan and Ryder needed someone to pick them up.

————

The vehicle of the SWAT operation team was speeding towards the target location, and Roan was sitting in the back, calling Mona.

"How? Did you find out where Richard's cell phone is?"

"Sorry."

Sitting on a chair in the office area of ​​the No. 5 investigation team, Mona said helplessly:

"The other party didn't answer the phone or reply to the message, and I couldn't find out the specific location of the other party.

But we did find the last time Richard's car was seen on highways in New Jersey and New York. "

Roan was already mentally prepared for this result, and briefly described the new clues he had just obtained from Irene. Roan finally said:

"Check with William and the pastor of this church to see what is going on with him and whether he is suspected of committing a crime."

"OK, give me a moment."

Mona nodded, hung up the phone and started working quickly with William and other technical agents.

At 9:47 p.m., Roan, Ryder, and a SWAT team arrived at the church in New Jersey.

At this time, the church was pitch black, and Roan and Ryder led several SWAT team members to block the front and rear doors of the church.

After counting down to three, the two led the swat team and rushed in together.
