Chapter 630 Case Facts
Office of the 1st Squadron, Robbery and Murder Division.
The deputy turned on the wall-mounted TV. He was used to watching the morning news, but after changing several channels, they were all reporting on the cruise ship hijacking case.
The protagonist in the news is the captain who has not been seen for many days.
The deputy team member sighed, "How long will this boring old news be broadcast on a loop? Those idiot reporters won't move their butts to investigate some new news?"
Xiao Hei joked, "It's like a sixty-year-old white-haired man who still sticks to the front line of investigating crimes."
"You are right. I have dedicated my whole life to the Robbery and Murder Department. I have investigated more cases than you have eaten steak. Don't I have this qualification?"
Xiao Hei replied, "Yes, you do have this qualification, but they obviously prefer Luke, and you have to admit that the cruise hijacking case sounds more exciting and pricks the nerves of those rich people. "
The deputy team leader said helplessly, "Okay, I admit I'm a little envious of this lucky guy Luke."
Jackson said, "Actually, I feel that being famous is not a good thing. After all, our job is to investigate crimes, and we are not Hollywood stars."
The deputy captain snorted, "Unless you want to be like me and just want to be a deputy captain in this life, otherwise, put away your childish ideas."
Jackson shrugged, "Actually, what I want to know most is where is the captain? Has he contacted you?"
Xiao Hei replied, "Based on what I know about him, he should rest in his comfortable big villa."
Jenny smiled and said, "Actually, I really want to try a cruise trip. I wonder if the cruise ticket prices will drop after this hijacking incident?"
Jackson echoed, "I'm also very interested in cruise travel. When the captain comes back, we can ask him what it's like to take a cruise vacation."
"Creak..." With a sound, the office door opened, and Luke smiled and greeted everyone, "Guys, it sounds like you are talking about me."
Xiao Hei was a little surprised, "Captain, you're here, I thought you wanted to rest for a while."
Luke did have this idea, but now that he was here, he still had to give his subordinates an impression of hard work.
"Are there any difficult cases recently?"
The deputy said, “We just solved a heinous homicide.
The crime occurred just east of Newster Square. Two masked men wearing black hoods shot and killed one person during the day. One person was killed and the other injured. The injured person was a minor. At that time, many citizens around him saw it. , the impact is very bad.
We arrived at the crime scene, and through eyewitness descriptions, viewing surveillance, and extensive analysis, we deduced the murderer's crime route and escape direction.
A black hood was found in a trash can in the direction of the murderer's escape, and the suspect's DNA was extracted.
After DNA identification and comparison, we found the identity of the murderer.
We caught the murderer and took him to the interrogation room, and he confessed in less than half an hour.
You came back late. "
Luke smiled and said, "Well done, I feel relieved to have you as the deputy squadron taking charge of the first squadron."
The deputy team member curled his lips, "I hope you don't worry."
Luke couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the complaining old man.
Later, Luke briefly described the case in which the chairman of Coffey Company was murdered at the secretary's house.
Xiao Hei asked, "I know about this case. Isn't it being investigated by the Second Squadron?"
“In order to solve the case as soon as possible, the Kofi Group has offered a reward of one million US dollars and hopes that I can participate in the investigation of the case.
So Rhett hopes that our No. 1 Squadron and No. 2 Squadron will jointly investigate. "
The deputy asked, "What happens if there are disagreements in the investigation?"
"Take the first squadron as the main one."
"I'm not listening to you." The deputy team looked at Jackson aside, "You see, this is the benefit of being famous.
Captain Klin of the Second Squadron might have been hiding in his office crying. "
Xiaohei's eyes lit up and he immediately became energetic, "If there is a reward, I will be more motivated. This is a good thing for everyone, why are you crying?
If they didn't want Luke to participate in the investigation, Coffey Company might not offer this reward. "
Jackson asked, "What is the origin of this Coffey Company?"
The deputy team member thought for a while, frowned and said, "I have heard of the Coffey family decades ago. It is a big local family and has a certain influence in politics."
"What I'm more curious about is why the chairman of Kofi Company died in the secretary's house?" Xiao Hei touched his chin and smiled, "If I guessed correctly, the time of death should be at night."
Xiao Hei smiled, showing a look that everyone understood.
"We are discussing the case, be serious, even for the sake of the reward." Luke warned, and continued, "The specific facts of the case are not yet clear. After Director Red and Captain Klin finish talking, I will Connect with him.”
Xiao Hei proactively suggested, "Captain, I'll go to the Second Squadron with you."
This case was originally investigated by the Second Squadron, but now it is taken over by Luke. Even if Chen Kelin can understand, other people in the Second Squadron will also have emotions. Luke is worried that Xiaohei will not be able to keep his mouth shut, talk nonsense, and cause unnecessary trouble. .
"Jackson is coming with me, the others are waiting for news."
Half an hour later, Luke received a call from Chen Kelin. However, Chen Kelin did not ask him to go to the second squadron. Instead, he took the file to the first squadron for discussion.
Luke invited him into the captain's office and asked, "Captain Chen, what would you like to drink?"
Chen Kelin shrugged, "I'm not here to drink tea."
"Whether you drink it or not, I will definitely drink it.
If the director hadn't called me, I should have been enjoying afternoon tea leisurely in my yard. "Luke said this because he wanted to take the initiative to show that he had no intention of stealing the case.
"I know, Director Reid told me.
You are in the limelight right now and you don’t care about the credit. "Chen Kelin put a stack of documents on the table, "Let's talk about the case first.
There were two victims in this homicide, Blanche Crook and Garion Coffey.
The time of death of both of them was between eight o'clock and twelve o'clock the night before yesterday.
Yesterday morning, people from Coffey's company discovered that Blanche Crook and Gary Coffey did not show up for work and could not contact them, so they called the police.
Afterwards, through an investigation, the police discovered the bodies of two people in the home of the deceased Blanche Crook. "
Chen Kelin took out photos of the crime scene and introduced, "The body of the deceased Blanche Crook was beside the bed. She was shot three times and the fatal wound was in the head.
The body of Garion Coffey was found in the bathroom. He had been shot four times, with the fatal wound in his chest.
After identification, the two victims were killed with the same pistol. "
Luke picked up the crime photos from the table and looked through them. The deceased Blanche Crook was wearing a black lace nightgown with large red blood stains on her body.
Garian Coffey collapsed in the bathroom, stained red with blood. It is not difficult to guess the relationship between the two.
"Did the murderer leave any clues?"
"The technical team found some biological samples at the crime scene and are still identifying them."
"Where are the witnesses?"
"We visited the surrounding neighbors and no one heard gunshots that night. I guess the murderer may have used a silencer."
"Did the surveillance camera capture the murderer?"
“There was no surveillance in the home of the deceased Blanche Crook.
We have checked community surveillance and have found no suspicious persons or vehicles so far. "
"What was the murderer's purpose?"
"There are signs of being rummaged through the deceased's home. It could be robbery and murder, or it could be a fabrication of the scene after the murder. I personally prefer the second option."
"How many murderers are there?"
"Based on the situation at the scene, there should be no more than two people."
"Where is the suspect?"
Chen Kelin tilted his head, "Which one are you referring to?"
"Tell me."
Chen Kelin said, “Coffey Company has been developing and expanding over the years, involving many industries and fields, and has also offended many people.
Last month, Garion Coffey also suffered a car accident. Fortunately, Garion Coffey was riding in a bulletproof car. He was fine, but the driver who hit him was seriously injured and hospitalized.
As far as I know, Garian Coffey offended many people during his tenure as the chairman of Coffey Company. However, due to the confidentiality of the company's business, the relevant personnel of the company are unwilling to talk more, so we can only investigate on our own.
Three of them are more suspected. Chen Kelin pulled out a stack of information and handed it to Luke, "These three people all have certain business connections with Coffey Company. To be precise, it is a conflict of interest. They have verbally threatened and intimidated each other." "
Luke took the information and looked at it.
"Ding ding ding..." Chen Kelin's cell phone rang.
He stepped aside to answer the phone.
After hanging up the phone, he said to Luke, "The husband of the deceased Blanche Crook was on a business trip and has just arrived at the police station to identify the body. I want to talk to him.
are you going? "
Luke asked, "Both deceased persons were married?"
“Isn’t this what the private lives of these rich people are like?”
"It seems you are adding a suspect." Luke stood up and walked out of the office with Chen Kelin.
A few minutes later, the deceased Blanche Crook's husband was invited into the conference room.
He is a white man in his thirties, with an anxious look on his face, and his suit looks a little wrinkled, "My name is Buddy Crook, and I am Blanche Crook's husband.
You contacted me before and said there was a robbery at my house. How is my wife? I have been unable to contact her. "
Chen Kelin and Luke looked at each other and sighed, "Mr. Buddy Crook, unfortunately, your wife has been killed."
"What! How could this happen!" Buddy Crook intertwined his hands, widened his eyes, and asked tremblingly, "When did it happen? How did he die?"
"She was shot to death in your home the night before yesterday."
"Oh my God, this is terrible, I've only been gone a few days, why is this happening?
Where is my wife's body? I want to see her. "
Luke said to Jackson on the side, "Take him to identify the body."
"Yes, sir."
After Buddy Crook left, Chen Kelin took the initiative and asked, "Luke. The director has already said that although it is a joint investigation, the case is still focused on you. What are your plans next?"
Luke thought for a while and said, "Since the first squadron and the second squadron are jointly investigating the case, we now have enough manpower. It is better to investigate separately, each investigating the situation of a deceased person, and then summarize the information in a timely manner."
Chen Kelin nodded, "We have been focusing our investigation on Garian Coffey before, and we have made some progress. How about we continue to investigate Garian Coffey."
"No problem. I'm responsible for investigating Blanche Crook. If there are any clues, I'll contact you in time."
"Understood." Chen Kelin nodded and walked out of the No. 1 Squadron office with a complicated mood.
Chen Kelin had long known that with Luke's ability, sooner or later one day he would be in front of him, but he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly...
