Amid the melodious songs, a young couple hugged each other in front of the priest. The couple's relatives and friends applauded warmly, and the church was filled with a happy atmosphere.
In the corridor behind the church.
"Excuse me, Mr. Agent."
One of the managers of the church, an old priest with glasses and gray hair, after listening to Luo An's description, frowned and thought for a long time, shook his head and said:
"I'm really sorry, but I really haven't seen the man you just mentioned, and I have no memory at all."
Having said this, the old priest paused, tilted his head and pointed at the passers-by who were eating consecrated food outside the church and said:
"You can ask them. Some of them often participate in giving. Maybe you can get useful information from them."
"Okay, thank you, Father."
"You're welcome and God bless you."
The old priest smiled and nodded, praised Luo An, turned around and left slowly.
Turning around, he saw through the glass the newlyweds in the church singing and dancing with their relatives and friends, and then thinking of the victims already lying in the morgue, the corners of Luo An's mouth slowly lowered.
"We'll be together tomorrow night, that's it! Bye..."
Lacey and a young white woman dressed as a nun hugged each other, chatted for a long time, and agreed to go out to play together tomorrow. Then she returned to Luo An and said calmly:
"There is only one surveillance camera in the entire church, and it is in the hall where the couple holds their wedding ceremony. The surveillance range is only in the hall. We cannot find the white man Louise said standing in the corner outside the church through surveillance."
"...put aside monitoring in advance"
After a moment of silence, Luo An looked complicated and his tone became even more complicated:
"Sister, you won't let it go either?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Lacey glanced at Luo An and wiped off the faint lipstick marks on her face:
"Henna is a volunteer who comes to help in this church, not a nun. She wears nun's clothes just to match the scene here."
At this point, Lacey's mouth corners raised, her eyes brightened, and she whispered to herself: "But I haven't tried it as a nun."
Luo An: "..."
"Luo An, I asked some passers-by who often come here to get food."
Before Luo An could speak, the heavily armed Ryder ignored the surprised looks of others, walked up to Luo An and said solemnly:
“One of them, a scavenger, said he saw two white men yesterday morning, taking some food and standing in the corner eating and chatting.
The image of one of the men was similar to the image of the man in Louise's mouth. "
"oh?"
Looking away from the scumbag, Luo An's eyes lit up after hearing Ryder's words, and he immediately said:
"You should immediately take the scavenger and Lewis back to the headquarters and contact the portrait experts at the headquarters.
Ask him to draw the scavenger and the white male Louise described to see if he is the same person. "
"OK."
Ryder nodded and turned to make a call. At this moment, Luo An's Nokia suddenly rang.
"What's wrong, Mona?"
After answering the phone, Luo An looked through the glass and saw several young white women dressed as nuns cleaning the hall, with the corners of their mouths raised slightly.
Don't talk about Lacey, nun or anything, he also...
"I found an important clue, Roan!"
Mona's voice on the other end of the phone was very solemn, which suddenly brought Luo An's attention back:
"Just five hours after Susan disappeared, a gray car drove out of a small forest area 2.7 miles northwest of Little St. Phil's Church, and there was a small lake in that forest area."
"Shit!"
Luo An immediately put aside the messy thoughts in his mind, hurriedly pulled Lacey and ran back to the SUV, kicked the accelerator and rushed towards the forest area.
Ryder didn't get in the car because he wanted to take Scavenger and Louise back to the FBI's New York headquarters for mock portraits.
The dark SUV was speeding through the busy streets like a sword. Lacey, who was sitting in the passenger seat, swallowed and fastened her seat belt silently. Luo An continued to ask on the phone:
"Tell me carefully about the surveillance process, Mona."
"OK."
Mona on the other end of the phone said without any nonsense:
"The place where Susan disappeared belongs to the old city and there is no online surveillance, so I followed your request and focused on the main road outside the old city, where there is complete surveillance.
The time Susan disappeared was after 9:30 pm, probably around 9:35. Leaving the old city where Susan disappeared, I calculated the time when the car would arrive at each intersection, and the error was within ten minutes.
...It turned out that there were too many gray cars and it was impossible to check them. "
Turning the steering wheel and stepping on the accelerator, the dark SUV easily passed the small Buick in front. Hearing Mona's words, Luo An nodded.
Around nine o'clock in the evening is the prelude to the opening of nightlife, so it's normal to have a lot of cars.
"But it suddenly occurred to me that after killing someone, the murderer would dump the body in the lake."
Having said this, Mona on the other end of the phone smiled:
"When you were looking for the kidnapping murderer last time, the habitual thinking you mentioned reminded me. I wondered if the murderer this time also had habitual thinking. After killing people, he would throw the body into the lake, so I started to investigate. Nearby lake.
Sure enough, five hours after Susan disappeared, the scene of a gray car driving out of a small forest with a lake was clearly illuminated by a small house on the edge of the forest area.
This small house was built by an old white man who often came to this forest area to fish. He was afraid that his fishing items would be stolen, so he installed a network monitoring system outside the small house. "
After listening to Mona's narration, Luo An looked strange.
Sure enough, anglers can catch everything except fish.
"correct,"
The steering wheel suddenly turned, and the dark SUV drew a semicircle on the ground and quickly drove into another road. Lacey's face changed slightly, and Luo An continued to ask:
"Can you find out who owns that gray car?"
"Can't find it."
Mona on the other end of the phone tapped the keyboard a few times, and her expression changed:
"The gray car drove sideways through the surveillance camera, and I couldn't see the license plate. Moreover, the car disappeared after leaving the forest area, and no trace of it was found on the main traffic roads."
"OK, thank you for your hard work, Mona."
Luo An frowned slightly, but didn't say much. After hanging up the phone, he saw that there weren't many cars on the road ahead, so he stepped on the accelerator again, making the SUV speed a few minutes faster.
Lacey: "...."
Tappan Forest Area is a forest area that is not very large. There are no large human-inhabited communities nearby, only a small community where dozens of people live.
Therefore, in addition to the occasional DYDs who come to fish in the small lake on the west side of the forest area on weekends, there are also the occasional young men and women who taste forbidden fruits and come here to seek excitement.
Raven and Ken are such a pair of young people.
Men and women in love always seek some small excitement, and the two of them are tired of regular outdoor battles.
After thinking for a long time, they decided to skip class today and come to the depths of the forest to imitate Tarzan, played by a certain dark Sophie Marceau, and play the exciting savage life without clothes all morning.
Then......
"Ahhhh——"
