Luo An scanned the crime scene, automatically ignoring the onlookers in the distance, his expression moved slightly, and he began to use the killer's modus operandi to simulate the murderer's behavior at the time of the crime.
Time seemed to go back. In the dark park path, the murderer followed Mike all the way. Mike seemed to have noticed something and started to trot, but did not run away from him. At this time, the murderer called out Mike's name, and Mike reluctantly turned around and agreed... Bang!
Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly and simulated shooting with his right hand. Then he stood at the place where Mike's body was for a few seconds, and then ran towards the woods to the east.
Mona, who was standing nearby, looked confused after watching Luo An's actions. Seeing Luo An striding towards the woods, she quickly got up and wanted to catch up with him, but there were too many branches in the woods. Mona just lowered her head to avoid the branches, and then When he looked up, Luo An was nowhere to be seen.
"Shit!"
Mona yelled, but she didn't understand why Luo An could run so fast in the woods. Everyone came from the FBI Academy in Virginia... Could someone have given Luo An a small chance?
Since she couldn't keep up with Luo An, Mona decisively chose not to follow, turned around and walked back to the crime scene, preparing to wait for Luo An to come to her.
On the other side, Luo An completely ignored the wild mandarin ducks who scolded him, and kept running through the woods quickly. He quickly ran out of the woods and arrived on a road east of the park.
Looking at the constant flow of vehicles on the highway and several shops on the opposite side of the highway, Luo An pondered for a few seconds and turned around to return to the original route.
At the crime scene, Mona was sitting on a chair playing with the computer. When she saw Luo An, she raised her hand to indicate that she was here. When Luo An sat down, Mona asked:
"How's it going? Did you find any clues?"
"certainly."
Luo An smiled and nodded, and said, "The murderer should be a soldier who came out to pick up jobs after his life was unsatisfactory after being discharged from the army. He might even have retired from the special forces."
"Why?"
"Because along the way I only found the footprints of the New York Police Department police officers and the footprints of the police dogs, and nothing else."
"..."
Mona was speechless. She didn't expect Luo An to say so righteously that he didn't find any clues. However, Luo An said that not finding any clues was the biggest clue:
"The place I just walked through is the best place to run away after killing someone."
"There are countless branches in the woods. Anyone who passes by will break a few branches inadvertently, but I just checked carefully and found that there are either police dog footprints on the newly broken branches, or there are police dog footprints and police boots. There are no newly broken branches in other places, and there are no obvious footprints.”
"The only people who can have this kind of anti-reconnaissance awareness are those in the special forces."
After listening to Luo An's explanation, Mona stopped playing with the computer, tilted her head and wondered: Did she go to a fake FBI training academy?
"What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Seeing Luo An asking herself, Mona shook her head, pushed the laptop in her hand to Luo An, and said:
"This is the autopsy report that was just sent. It shows that there was a small amount of alcohol in the deceased's stomach."
"Did the deceased drink before he died?"
Luo An suddenly became happy when he saw the report, tilted his head and asked:
"There are several bars south of the park, can you check them out?"
"Why the south?"
Mona took the computer and asked, while her fingers quickly searched for relevant information.
"Because the deceased came from the south side of the park...I guess."
After hearing Luo An's words, Mona curled her lips. After a few seconds, the search was completed and she showed the screen to Luo An:
“There are only two bars on the block and more a few blocks away.”
"OK, let's go to these two bars first. We have plenty of time anyway."
"No, we only have three days."
...
No one had seen the deceased Mike in the bar on the left side of the block, so Roan and Mona turned and walked towards the bar on the right.
"Have you ever seen this person?"
Seeing the photo in Mona's hand, the bar owner shook his head:
"He's not a regular at our bar, I didn't see this guy yesterday."
Mona looked up at Luo An, who turned to look at the beautiful waitress who was chatting with someone. The bar owner saw this and called the waiter over loudly.
The waitress with long red hair, mainly bulging forward, came over, and her eyes lit up when she saw Luo An's face:
"Hello, just call me Christine."
She said hello, but the waitress only had eyes for Luo An.
Mona rolled her eyes beautifully and handed the photo to Kristen, blocking her view of Luo An:
"Have you ever seen this person?"
Kristen was not angry because her line of sight was blocked. She gave Luo An a wink and said directly after taking the photo:
"I have seen this man order two glasses of red wine when he came to our bar yesterday, and he sat in the corner and seemed to be waiting for someone. But no one came until the end, so he drank the two glasses of red wine by himself and left. "
Hearing this, Mona's lips twitched and she subconsciously looked at Luo An. She didn't expect that Mike actually walked into the park from the south before he was alive.
Luo An didn't see Mona's expression. When he learned that Christine had seen the deceased Mike, he hurriedly asked:
"Did anyone come in after he left? Or was there someone looking for him?"
"Is there a reward for answering this question?"
"..."
Luo An was speechless, Mona snorted coldly, patted Luo An on the shoulder and said to her:
"As long as the information you provide is useful, this man will be yours tonight."
"Then it's settled."
Christine smiled and stuffed a note into Luo An's arms, and then said:
"There was an old man sitting at the bar. After the man in the photo left the bar, he also left the bar right after him."
Luo An instantly looked back at the bar owner:
"Do you have surveillance cameras here?"
When Christine heard this, she glanced at the bar owner with disdain and said in a very unhappy tone:
"There's only one, and it's towards the cashier. It's mainly because he's afraid that we'll steal money."
"Christine!"
The bar owner was a bit embarrassed, so Christine ignored him. She lowered her head and took out a dozen notes in her pocket. After searching for a while, she took out one of the notes and handed it to Luo An, shrugging:
"This is the old man's contact information."
"..."
Seeing Luo An and Mona looking at her in surprise, Kristen put her hands on her hips and raised her chest, looking like mountains and mountains - who was she looking down on?
"Waiting for you tonight, handsome boy!"
Christine stood behind the bar door and waved her arms to Luo An and the two who left the bar. Luo An silently put the note into his pocket. Mona sat in the car and used her laptop to enter the FBI internal network to search for the identity information of the phone number owner. .
"Found it."
Soon, the computer showed who the owner of the phone number was:
"The owner of the phone number is West Watts. He is 56 years old. He is a professor at New York University. He lives in Scarstdale. His wife just passed away six months ago. The cause of death was cancer..."
"University professor?"
After hearing Mona's introduction, Luo An, who was sitting in the driver's seat, rubbed his temples and felt a little pain in his head:
"Did I analyze it wrong?"
"To be honest, I don't feel that your analysis is correct...except that the deceased did enter the park from the south."
Mona continued to look down at the information on the computer and said at the same time:
"Let's go to West's house first and capture him first."
"OK."
Luo An nodded, started the car, turned around and left the bar.
The only sound in the car was Mona's crackling typing. Luo An felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward. Just as he was about to say something, Mona's body suddenly shook and she shouted:
"Fu-k! West was in a car accident and died!"
