Legendary FBI Detective

Wednesday, 9 a.m., Special Investigations Unit office area.

Potente Byrne, the team leader, is very fast. Luo An gave him the list yesterday afternoon, and this morning he sent all the people to the special investigation team.

At the front of the office area, Luo An briefly introduced the identities of the five men and women in suits to Mona, Lacey and Michelle:

Cooper, 26, from the Department of Homeland Security, has a standard federal grin and a cool haircut.

Annie Che, 30 years old, from the International Business Department, has an expressionless face and an open suit, looking very sophisticated.

Winslow, 32 years old, comes from the hostage rescue team. He has short hair and is a head taller than Roan. His muscles are not as exaggerated as Ryder, but he still has a strong visual impact.

Patricia, 29, from the Department of Victim Services, has a freckled face and a friendly appearance.

Anwar, 30 years old, comes from the anti-terrorism department. He also has short hair and a long scar on his neck. Although he is smiling, at first glance, people feel that this guy is not easy to deal with.

Five people can be selected by Luo An. Their marksmanship, fighting skills, tactical judgment and other abilities are all good. The only difference is their personality, thinking mode and professional judgment.

Then he briefly introduced the situation of Mona, Lacey and Michelle to the five people. Finally, Roan took out the folder that team leader Potente Byrne gave him yesterday.

Inside the folder was a notice issued by the Washington headquarters. It stated that Roann Greenwood, deputy leader of the Special Investigations Group of the FBI's Los Angeles Division, was officially promoted to full-time and became the leader of the Special Investigations Group!

Not only that, Luo An also found out from Veranith last night that the Chicago branch's team leader Eason Patel and two other unlucky guys... two lucky people, their investigation team was successfully promoted. Responsible for a difficult case in a state.

"marvelous!"

"I knew it!"

Bang bang bang——

Upon hearing the news that Roan had become a regular employee, Mona and Lacey immediately cheered, Michelle clapped with excitement, and the five new agents had different expressions, but they all clapped hard with smiles on their faces.

"Everyone, let's not talk nonsense. Let's seize the time to deal with the case at hand."

Luo An didn't waste any more time on this matter. He waved his hand to signal the five new agents to take their seats. He pulled the whiteboard over and began to introduce the clues and information he currently had at hand.

"The death scene of Victim No. 1, Seaman William, 55, Los Angeles City Council Speaker, physically split into two parts.

The second victim, James Hunter, a naval officer, 40 years old, died in a scene where his head left the body.

Victim No. 3, James Smith, a 49-year-old church pastor, was beaten to death with a stick.

Victim No. 4, Butters Johnson, was a 39-year-old tannery factory worker. The scene of his death was that he was skinned. "

After briefly describing this basic information, Luo An turned his attention to Michelle and asked:

"What did the Trace Inspection Department say?"

"The autopsies of the four victims have been completed."

Michelle stood up from her chair, holding a folder in her hand, and said loudly:

“First of all, let’s talk about the similarities: the four victims all had pinhole marks on their bodies, and the substance nicosamid, which stimulates the central nervous system, was also detected in their bodies.

This shows that the murderer is indeed the same person, and he injected them into the victim's body while the victim was still alive, and then began to torture the victim.

Next comes the difference: the four victims died at different times.

The autopsy report showed that the first person to die was Butters Johnson, a leather factory worker. He died about 19 days ago.

The second was naval officer James Hunter, who died about 7 days ago.

The third person was Speaker of Parliament Seaman William, who died around the morning of the day before yesterday.

The fourth, church pastor James Smith, died around early yesterday morning. "

"Good, thank you for your hard work."

He nodded and motioned for Michelle to sit down. Seeing the five new agents, except for Annie Che, who had her suit open, the other four were lowering their heads and taking notes carefully. Luo An blinked and turned his eyes to Mona:

"What clues did you find here?"

"Economically, there's no clue."

Mona did not get up. She sat on her chair, looked at the computer in front of her and narrated:

"The speaker of the parliament, the naval officer and the church pastor have a lot of savings on the surface, and they also have some money privately.

The sources of most of these funds have been found out, and there is no direct connection.

As for surveillance, I'm sorry, the murderer used physical means to destroy cameras, not network means. I couldn't find any useful clues. "

"No, that's a useful clue."

Luo An held his chin and analyzed:

“There are quite a few surveillance cameras in those three communities, and some of them are in very hidden locations.

Since the other party used physical means to destroy them, it means that the other party has either carefully observed that area, or the other party has the installation and distribution records of those surveillance cameras. "

"And the Trace Inspection Department also determined that the four victims took the initiative to open the door to the murderer."

After hearing Roan's words, Mona and Michelle frowned and thought, while Lacey raised her hands and loudly said:

"This shows that the murderer definitely has an identity that makes it easy for people to let down their guard, or that the murderer pretends to be this identity and allows others to open the door for him!"

"You're absolutely right."

Luo An agreed very much with Lacey’s idea and then asked:

"Lacie, did you find any clues yesterday?"

"certainly!"

Lacey smiled, pulled out an inquiry record from her desk, and said:

"I learned from a colleague of Butters Johnson, a leather factory worker, that Butters lost his male ability due to an accident.

But I heard from Butters’ neighbor before that Butters often brought his stepdaughter home from the streets, and there was an obvious conflict between these two clues.

So I went to the streets to find those stepdaughters, and learned from one of them that they did not use normal means to serve Butters, but at Butters' request, they used other objects to beat and torture him. "

"..."xN

After Lacey finished speaking, the air in the office area became quiet for a few seconds. Luo An's expression did not change:

"What do you mean?"

"Butters, the tannery worker, has no male abilities, the church pastor has been alone for many years, the naval officer has no girlfriend, and you have seen the female friend of the Speaker of Parliament, but they have never had a relationship, and they call it platonic love. "

Lacey shrugged and threw the inquiry record back on the table:

"Don't you think this is a coincidence?"

Everyone in the office area understood what Lacey meant. Michelle frowned and said:

"Are you saying that all four victims had issues with their sexual orientation?"

"uncertain."

Lacey shook her head and said:

"They may not all be of this orientation, but they may have been to regular places where gay men go."

"Write down this clue and investigate later."

Roan gestured to Michelle to record Lacey’s thoughts, and then asked:

"Are there any other clues?"

Mona, Lacey and Michelle shook their heads, and Roan turned his attention to the four new agents:

"What are your thoughts on this case?"

Annie Che, who came from the International Business Department and wore an open suit, immediately raised her hand when she heard this, attracting the attention of everyone in the office area.
