Legendary FBI Detective

Chapter 502: Find Coglin, two corpses at the scene

In the south of Las Vegas, an eight-seater MPV was driving slowly southward along the main road.

In a distant hospital, Lacey was lying on the hospital bed with bandages on her body, while Mona sat beside the hospital bed and typed on the keyboard to investigate the surveillance video.

Michelle just went to Lacey's residence these days to pick up the second positioning monitor and is currently returning to the hospital.

Lacey's mental state was not bad. She asked Mona to help move the pillows, found a more comfortable position, and began to briefly describe the findings she had been following these days on her mobile phone.

"Luo An, I suspect there is something wrong with the amount of money robbed in this bank robbery."

Lacey shook her neck slightly, hummed and said:

“The data given by the bank is that they were robbed of approximately US$3.5 million in cash.

As for the metal cabinets that were robbed, about two-thirds of the people did not come forward afterwards, so the bank did not know the value of those items. In the end, it only gave a figure of approximately US$3 million. "

"I know."

Winslow was driving. Luo An was holding his mobile phone and nodded slightly while sitting in the back seat of the MPV.

The owners of two-thirds of the metal cabinets knew that their belongings had been robbed, but they did not dare to declare the lost items. There was only one possibility in this situation, and that was that those items would not be seen.

After the anesthesia wore off, the pain in her head made Lacey groan softly, and she continued:

"If according to the data given by the bank, they were robbed of a total of about US$6 million, then each of the six robbers probably received about US$1 million.

I carefully calculated Coghlin’s expenses in the past few days. He lost nearly 500,000 US dollars in the casino. In addition, he stayed in luxury hotels, found different women every night, and rented luxury sports cars. These expenses added up to Up, it has exceeded 700,000 US dollars..."

"But before Coglin was kidnapped, he was still in a calm state, which shows that the $700,000 has not hurt his muscles and bones."

Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly and continued following Lacey's analysis:

"In other words, the $3.5 million in cash that was stolen was only a small part of what the robbers harvested. The majority of what they harvested came from the items in the metal cabinets that were not reported."

After Luo An finished speaking, Chenier's eyes moved slightly and she made her own guess:

"Could the three people who kidnapped Coghlin and the people who blew out the tires of Lacey's car be the owners of those metal cabinets?

After losing a shady sum of money, they began to investigate the bank robbers privately, eventually finding the somewhat flamboyant Coghlin. "

"It is indeed possible, but..."

Luo An was silent for a while and nodded, then slowly shook his head.

In 1971, in London, the capital of Great Britain, not even Northern Ireland, nor the United Kingdom, a bank robbery occurred that shocked the entire country:

A group of robbers dug a tunnel into a bank vault and stole a large amount of cash and jewelry.

That bank vault also hides a host of shady secrets, such as royal sex scandals, murders, and corrupt government deals.

After this incident happened, upper-class people in many countries stopped storing their shady things in banks. Instead, they bought safes at high prices to hide them themselves.

The incident was later adapted into a movie, released in many countries around the Western world, starring a certain bald diver.

"Wait a moment."

Luo An's eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly remembered that the movie was released in the same year as the Olympic Games held in a certain eastern country, that is, 2008.

The time is now 2006, and this movie may not have been approved yet.

Some of the newly wealthy people in the Federation, as well as the people in the middle and lower reaches, basically don't know about the bank robbery decades ago, so they still have the possibility of storing some shameful things in the bank's metal cabinets.

Thinking of this, Luo An frowned. Is this really the reason why Coglin was kidnapped?

Just as Luo An was thinking about the clues, Mona's excited voice suddenly came from the phone:

"Roan, Michelle got the positioning monitor back!"

"very good!"

Luo An put aside the speculation in his mind and asked:

"Where is the positioning?"

"Wait a moment."

Mona on the other end of the phone started to fiddle with the monitor. After more than ten seconds, she replied loudly:

"It's in Clark County, south of Las Vegas! You need to drive about twenty minutes from there!"

"That'll take ten minutes."

Luo An grinned when he heard this, patted Winslow on the shoulder to indicate that he would drive instead, and at the same time said to Mona:

"Contact the SWAT team and ask them to quickly go and seal off the area where the location is located!"

"clear!"

Mona on the other end of the phone answered loudly, and Luo An also sat in the driver's seat, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the eight-seater MPV rushed forward like a tiger.

Clark County is located in the southeast of Las Vegas. Functionally, it is a satellite city of Las Vegas.

The main purpose is to provide a place with a lower rent for people who work in Las Vegas but cannot live in Las Vegas due to the high rent.

Eleven minutes passed, and MPV successfully arrived at the area shown by the positioning. This is the outer suburbs of Clark County, where abandoned factories and a small number of homeless people gather.

The mpv parked on the side of the road, and several homeless people in the distance immediately cast various looks at it.

As Luo An and the other three stepped out of the car, they saw that they were holding rifles in their hands, pistols on their waists, and body armor on their chests. The body armor also had the letters FBI written on it. These homeless people were ready to make a move. The innocence in their eyes instantly returned, and many people quickly turned away with expressions of "I was just passing by."

Casting a glance at these homeless people, Luo An took Winslow and Chenelle and hurried to the abandoned building where the positioning device was located.

The three of them took their weapons and followed Mona's guidance as they carefully climbed up the stairs and soon arrived at the third floor where the positioning device was located.

His nose moved slightly and he smelled a strong smell of blood. Luo An frowned.

He waved his hands to signal Winslow and Chenelle to flank him. Counting down to two, the three of them rushed into the room where the positioning device was located.

This is a very large room. Judging from the structural layout, this was originally an area where employees of a company worked.

At this time, this area was empty. The tables, chairs, benches, etc. had long been evacuated by homeless people. There was only dust on the ground and a few abandoned wooden boards in the huge area.

In the center of the room, there was a breathless man lying on the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face. Four of the five fingers on his left hand were chopped off. His left foot was smashed to pieces with a hammer-like object. His right arm was cut off from the center and the broken arm was thrown to the ground. In the distance, there is an X-shaped incision on the chest with bone visible, and a large amount of bright red blood is flowing under the body.

"Fu-k!"

Seeing clearly that the deceased was Coghlin, Winslow cursed in a low voice, and Chenelle looked ugly:

"It seems that the three kidnappers have most likely gotten the information they want."

It is not difficult to see from the scene at the scene that Coglin experienced brutal torture before his death. Without professional training, more than 95% of him would tell the other party what he wanted to know.

Luo An's expression remained unchanged, he knelt down and carefully examined the blood stains on the ground for a few seconds, stood up and said:

"It didn't take long for the blood to coagulate. The group of people probably didn't leave for more than 20 minutes."

It takes 5-12 minutes for a blood clot to form.

Winslow and Chenier also knew about this. They nodded and were about to speak when Luo An suddenly frowned and moved his nose slightly. Then he suddenly picked up the rifle and walked towards another staircase not far away.

Winslow and Chenelle looked puzzled but hurriedly followed, weapons raised, and followed quickly.

The three of them stepped over the broken arm on the ground and walked quickly to another staircase. They looked down the stairs and saw that the ground of this staircase was full of traces of a fight.

On the stair landing between the third and second floors, a sturdy bald white man was sitting against the wall. There was a deep wound on the main artery of his neck. The blood flow soaked his clothes and the surrounding ground. His eyes were Yuan stares with unblinking eyes.
