Monday morning.
Robbery Murder Division.
As soon as Luke walked into the office, Marcus came over and squeezed his dark eyelids, "Hey, buddy, how was last night ?
"
See what I mean?" Marcus made a motion of leaning forward.
Luke smiled, "Don't have one-night stands, maybe you will die one day."
Matthew said, "Friendly reminder, you should go for an HIV test."
"Hey... I know you are jealous, I I understand, if you can't eat grapes, you can say grapes are sour, huh." Marcus grinned, "I have protective measures." The
deputy team said, "Infectious diseases are not limited to HIV, just ask yourself. "
Oh... I admit that I was a little scared. I must go to the bar to have a few more drinks tonight to suppress my shock." Marcus made a gesture of swaying on the dance floor.
The deputy team shook his head, "Ignore him, this guy is hopeless, and sooner or later he will fall on a woman."
Luke had a day off yesterday and asked, "Is there any new progress in the investigation of the Taser robbery?
" The team said, "Yesterday we checked the phone number under Tony's name. The phone card stopped working and we couldn't locate it. It further increased the suspicion of Tony committing the crime. The main task now is to find Tony." Luke continued to ask, "Tony
's How is the economic situation?"
Matthew replied, "Tony has no proper job, has been receiving relief money, the economic situation is not very good, and the house he lives in is also rented. No credit card consumption records have been found."
Marcus Said, "People like Tony usually prefer cash transactions, and it is difficult to lock their location through credit card consumption. I have asked friends from the gang to help find them."
"Crack..." The door of the captain's office opened, and David walked out of the office, waving at Luke, "Alarm clock, I have a task." "
You really deserve a beating." " Each
to each other."
After people left the police station, Luke got into the co-pilot first, and David sighed and got into the cab.
"What mission?"
"Harry has found a clue about Tony and wants to report it to us in person." David started the car and was about to drive when Luke handed him an envelope, "What?" "I borrowed you three thousand at the end of last year.
" USD, now I will pay you $3,200 with principal and interest."
David was a little surprised, opened the envelope and took a look, "Did you rob a bank yesterday on vacation?"
Luke smiled, "Yes, this is your hush money."
David put the envelope in his underwear pocket, "Call me next time."
"I'll think about it."
David also smiled, "I didn't expect you to pay back the money, it's a surprise."
"Knowing that I might not pay you back ." Do you still borrow the money?" Luke secretly asked, are you stupid?
According to the personality of the original owner of the body, it is really possible not to pay back the money, not because he deliberately reneged on the debt, but because he did not have easy money.
David looked complicated, "I've seen some policemen go astray because of lack of money. It's easy for lapd to exchange the power in his hands for money, but this is a road of no return. If you need money, you can still find me. "
"I don't see that you care about me."
"You think too much, I just don't want to be shot in the back one day."
"Haha..."
Luke laughed, this is David.
The car drove near Tony's home community. David parked the car at the entrance of an alley. A man quickly got into the back of the car. It was Harry, David's new informant.
David cut to the chase, "Have you found Tony's whereabouts?"
Harry said, "I have used all my contacts to find Tony, but I have not found his hiding place. I can be sure that he is not hiding nearby." David turned his
head Said, "This is not enough. If you want to be free, you must exchange valuable clues. If it's just perfunctory, I don't mind putting the handcuffs on you again." "Hey, relax, I didn't find Tony,
but I found his best friend. These two people are often mixed together. No one knows Tony's situation better than him. If you want to know anything, you can ask him directly." "What's his name and where does he live?" "We all call
him
William , is a homeless man, and his tent is in the alley in front. A bearded white man with only four fingers on his right hand, easy to identify." Harry paused, and continued, "I believe, he should have what you want to
know Let's settle the matter."
David said, "No, you have to help us find Tony." "
I want to help you too, but I only hang around here and I'm only familiar with the surrounding situation. I can assure you But if Tony comes back, I'll tell you as soon as possible. But if he goes somewhere else, there's nothing I can do."
David stared at him for a while, "If you help me find someone else, it's clear. "
I knew it, I knew you wouldn't let me go so easily..." Harry complained a few words, but he also knew that complaining was futile, so he said helplessly, "OK, I can help you, but this is the last time "
But only if you find the other person."
"Who?"
"Lindsay Hals."
"A drug addict?"
"Yes."
"What did she do?"
"None of your business." I want her address."
"Find her and we'll settle the matter."
"Waiting for your message."
"OK, you are the boss." After Harry finished speaking, he got out of the car.
Luke said, "Are you doing this for personal gain?"
"Are you going to report me?"
"Even if you report it, it won't be because of such shit. I want to save face."
David smiled and drove the car forward for a few hundred meters , blocking in front of another alley, and looking inside, there was indeed a blue tent.
The two got out of the car one after the other and walked into the alley. Luke shouted, "Hi, William, a friend is here." After a while, the
tent opened from the inside, and a disheveled man poked his head out, "You guys Who are you? I don't know you."
"We're Tony's friends."
"I've known Tony for almost ten years, and I've never seen him have any other friends besides me." "
Looks like we've found the right person." Luke showed Police badge, "lapd."
"Sir, I know you don't like me, but I haven't committed any crimes." "
You haven't, but your friends have." Luke handed him a cigarette, "We It's Tony."
William picked up a cigarette and sniffed it under his nose, "We haven't seen each other for a while, what's the matter with him?"
Luke asked, "When was the last time you met?"
"The exact time I can't remember exactly, but it's been at least half a month. Did something happen to him?"
"During the time before you parted, was there anything unusual about him?"
William thought for a while, "It seems...he had some problems during that time. I was nervous, and my mood was a little bit wrong, and he always avoided seeing him for a drink.
Later, he suddenly disappeared."
"Tony has been missing for so long, as your only friend, why didn't you call the police?"
"Tony doesn't like the police, sorry sir, no offense intended.
But based on what I know about Tony, if I call the police, he will not only not appreciate it, but may even break up with me." "
Why?"
