Office of the Special Agent in Charge.
Hearing Veranith's question, the female agent hesitated and did not answer immediately. Instead, she glanced at Luo An.
Seeing this, Veranith said in a solemn voice without waiting for Luo An to speak:
"It doesn't matter, just say it."
"OK."
The female agent walked into the office, closed the door and whispered:
"That agent is Angelique Thompson. She is a senior agent with the Organized Crime Bureau, Investigation Team Two."
Luo An frowned. Agent Norton was from the No. 1 Investigation Team of the Organized Crime Investigation Division, and he seemed to have met the victim by chance when he was looking for Agent Norton before.
The victim in my memory was a middle-aged white woman with freckles on her face, a slim figure, and a smile when she spoke.
When Veranith heard the name, her face suddenly became extremely ugly.
Luo An looked confused, and Veranith whispered in Luo An's ear and added:
"Angelique Thompson is a former senior agent of Investigation Team 5."
"?!"
Luo An's pupils shrank when he heard that Angelique Thompson actually had such an identity.
Could it be another revenge incident by a member of the drug lord family who did not die?
Seeing Veranith and Luo An, you look at me and I look at you, making eye contact but not speaking. The female agent twitched the corner of her mouth and hurriedly added:
"Sir, this matter has been known by the New York news media. There are a lot of reporters downstairs asking about this matter. Look..."
"Prepare a press conference immediately."
Veranith did not hesitate. This was her first case as special agent supervisor, and she had to get off to a good start. So after the female agent left the office quickly, Veranith immediately turned to look at Luo An:
"Luo An, this case will be handed over to your No. 5 Investigation Team."
"no problem."
Luo An guessed what Veranis was thinking. It was no exaggeration to say that Investigation Team No. 5 was the number one general under Veranis.
Seeing Luo An nodding in agreement, Veranith immediately breathed a sigh of relief and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, then she added with a serious face:
"Luo An, if you encounter difficulties during the investigation of the case, or if you encounter other departments that are not cooperative, remember to contact me immediately."
Veranith is not particularly good at solving crimes, but she will never stand idly by and show no mercy when it comes to helping Roan clear obstacles.
Luo An grinned when he heard this:
"Okay, sir."

An hour later, Investigation Team No. 5, office area.
"For the past fifteen years, Angelique Thompson has been an honored and respected member of our FBI family.
For the FBI and the New Yorkers she helped, her loss is a devastating loss..."
The TV hanging at the highest point in the front of the office area was playing a live broadcast of Veranith's press conference.
August and other group leaders all stood aside as backdrops.
"The familiar feeling is back."
William sat on the chair, crossed his hands and stretched them forward, and said with admiration:
"Veranith always gives unscripted speeches at press conferences, which is really amazing."
"Never mind the press conference."
At the front of the office area, Luo An held a document and asked loudly:
"How about, have you found out what Angelique Thompson's recent work is?"
"certainly."
William looked away from the TV, tapped the keyboard a few times, and said:
“The Organized Crime Investigation Division just sent over the relevant information.
But unfortunately, we did not find anything suspicious in the recent work content. "
Luo An, who had been looking down at the relevant files in the folder, raised his head and said:
“Then dig into the guys who were sent to jail by Angelique Thompson and are still gasping for air.
Especially for some poisoning cases, don't forget that Angelique Thompson was a member of the former No. 5 investigation team! "
"OK."
Seeing William and others starting to lower their heads and type on the keyboard, Luo An turned his eyes to Mona and said:
"You check Angelique Thompson's financial situation and see if he owes anyone money, or if someone else owes him money.
Carefully investigate his personal circumstances outside of work. "
"no problem!"
Mona nodded and her fingers began to fly on the keyboard. At this moment, Lacey opened the door to the No. 5 Investigation Team office area and said:
"Angelique Thompson's body has been transported back to the Trace Inspection Department."
Upon hearing this, Luo An immediately threw away the folder in his hand and quickly walked out of the No. 5 Investigation Team:
"Go check on the body now."
————
Trace examination department, autopsy room.
"Angelique Thompson's wallet, watch, cash, etc. are all there and have not been taken.
The cause of death was that she was shot five times in the chest. The time of death was approximately 11 o'clock last night. "
Medical examiner Morp put his hands on his hips, pointed at the corpse on the morgue and said:
"There were very shallow burn marks on the chest, which means the killer was very close to him when he used the weapon."
"That doesn't look like a sudden robbery."
Lacey frowned:
"You mean, the murderer is most likely an acquaintance of Angelique?"
Next to him was Luo An, holding his chin in his hand and analyzing:
"Even if he is not an acquaintance, Angelique is very likely to know the other person, and may even have had the experience of talking to him."
"You're right."
Forensic doctor Morp chuckled and asked:
"You must be Deputy Leader Greenwood."
"Just call me Luo An."
Luo An stretched out his hand and shook it with a smile. Forensic Medical Examiner Morp is in his fifties and has worked in the FBI for more than thirty years. He is a respectable senior.
Forensic doctor Morp chuckled and took back his hand. Such a young deputy team leader was very rare. After working in the FBI for so many years, he had only seen one when he was young. Luo An was the second one he had seen.
"The crime scene was in downtown Queens."
After carefully looking at Luo An up and down, Forensic Doctor Morp smacked his lips, feeling inwardly that he was a terrible young man. He turned around and took out a folder from the table and said:
"The crime scene was in downtown Queens, and the NYPD found no witnesses.
Moreover, the location where Angelique Thompson parked her car was very remote, and we did not find any surveillance. "
"Fu-k."
Lacey cursed in a low voice, and Luo An thought of something and asked:
"Have the ballistic traces been compared?"
"After comparison, it's the most common 9mm M9 pistol."
But Morp Medical Examiner said there is no matching pistol in the FBI's database, so they have no way of knowing who fired the gun.
Luo An nodded after hearing this:
"He's really a cautious guy."
At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise outside the autopsy room. Lacey listened to the sound carefully, her expression changed, she hurriedly opened the door and walked out, explaining at the same time:
"It's Angelique's husband, he's also from the FBI."
Luo An hurriedly followed Lacey out. At this time, a middle-aged white man who looked like a huge white meat ball was fighting with a group of agents from the Trace Inspection Section, and at the same time he shouted angrily:
"@*¥%#!
Ler me get through! Angelique is my wife! I must see her! "
"Hey! Hey! Tom, it's me, Lacey!"
Upon seeing this, Lacey immediately rushed forward to meet him, hurriedly grabbed the other person, and at the same time explained loudly:
"I know you want to see Angelique very much, but we have to wait until the Trace Inspection Department has processed the body, okay?"
"Lacie? Why are you here?"
Seeing Lacey appear here, Tom, who had been struggling fiercely, was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly reached out and took Lacey's arm, with a look on his face eagerly:
"I remember you were working in Investigation Team No. 5, right?
Where is deputy team leader Roan Greenwood, a crime-solving expert? Is he responsible for this case? ! "
