Because they had been busy all day and it was time to get off work, Luo An and Lacey walked into St. John's Hospital in Queens together the next morning.
In a certain ward, the two of them managed to see a middle-aged white man lying on the bed covered with quilts with a tube inserted in his nose. Although he looked a little decadent, his appearance was quite in line with Western aesthetics.
When Roan and Lacey came in, Matthew Ethan was flirting with a female nurse.
Taking out the FBI's golden badge and driving the female nurse who was fascinated by the man's eyes out of the room, Lacey's face was full of disdain:
"Good morning, Matthew Ethan, you are really popular with women."
"Is it my fault that Zhang becomes a heartthrob?"
Matthew Ethan smiled nonchalantly, looked at Lacey and Luo An carefully for a few seconds, and then his eyes lit up.
Luo An frowned slightly. According to the information, Matthew Ethan does not differentiate between men and women. He only distinguishes whether the other person is beautiful or ugly.
Too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy, Luo An took out a pair of handcuffs from behind and directly cuffed Matthew Ethan's right hand to the hospital bed:
"Congratulations, Matthew Ethan, you were arrested.
The crime is that you knew you had AIDS, but you did not tell your partner about it, and you also had incomplete sexual intercourse with her/them. "
"What?"
Seeing his hands cuffed by Luo An, Matthew Ethan, who was lying on the hospital bed, was suddenly surprised, and then shouted:
"Why do you say I know I have AIDS? I don't know this! I am innocent! I am the victim!"
"Stop telling lies that are easy to spot. We have already found your credit card records from a long time ago, which show that you went to the hospital for an AIDS test."
Lacey, who was standing next to her, laughed when she heard this. Luo An also pulled out Matthew Ethan's medical records from the pocket in front of his hospital bed and said softly:
“In addition, your medical records show that you were hospitalized this time because of Pneumocystis pneumonia infection, which is a common pneumonia in AIDS patients.
How about it? You feel very uncomfortable now. "
"...Fu-k, are you FBI so free now?"
After hearing what Luo An said, Matthew Ethan looked very irritable:
"I don't care. Anyway, you can't tell more people about this. Federal law stipulates that this is my right to privacy."
"It depends on your performance. According to federal law, federal citizens are obliged to answer questions from federal agents."
Luo An raised his eyebrows slightly and turned to look at Lacey. Upon seeing this, Lacey immediately took out a small notebook from behind and asked:
"Matthew Ethan, have you encountered any special circumstances in the past two days?"
"I am a person who goes out to have fun every night, and I have been lying in the hospital for the past two days. Is this considered a special situation?"
Matthew Ethan said something to Lacey very unhappily, then turned to look at Luo An:
"What on earth are you doing?"
Luo An did not explain Dr. Flavia Farlan’s matter to Matthew Ethan, but simply stated:
“According to the exact information we got, because you spread seeds everywhere, no one was found to be infected with AIDS.
One of the guys is infected with AIDS and has come to you with a knife for revenge. "
“Son of better than eating!”
Matthew Ethan's expression changed suddenly. Although he would die if he was infected with AIDS, he could at least live for a while longer. He refused to be hacked to death with a knife.
Thinking quickly, Matthew Ethan carefully thought about the past two days, suddenly discovered something, raised his head and said eagerly:
“Last night, I left the ward for a few minutes to relax, and later returned to this ward with two nurses.
When the three of us walked to the door of the ward, we found a man standing in front of my bed looking at my medical records.
We asked who he was and the guy said he was in the wrong room and left before we could continue talking. "
We asked who he was and the guy said he was in the wrong room and left before we could continue talking. "
At this point, Matthew Ethan was frightened for a while, because now that he recalled the scene carefully, he realized that the man seemed to have something in his pocket. Judging from the shape, it looked like a dagger.
Not only that, but the way the man looked at him when he spoke didn't look right.
Looking at each other with Luo An, Lacey immediately raised the notebook in her hand:
"Tell me what that guy looks like."
"White, very thin, looks young, in his twenties..."
Matthew Ethan hurriedly described the man's appearance, and finally said eagerly:
"Mr. Agent! Madam Agent! You must send someone to protect me later! I feel that the hospital is not very safe!"
Matthew Ethan's description of the man was almost identical to the appearance of the cyclist in yesterday's surveillance.
"Relax, Matthew Ethan, if you think the hospital is not safe, then we can change you to a safer place, such as a prison, it will definitely be safe there!"
Looking at each other and Lacey, Luo An chuckled and was too lazy to pay attention to such a selfish and unethical guy. He ignored the other party's wailing, got up and left the ward.
But having said that, after Luo An and Lacey left, the two SWAT team members who arrived with advance notice still sat at the door of this ward.
St. John's Hospital has relatively complete monitoring facilities, with many surveillance cameras installed in the corridors.
Taking out the FBI gold badge to show his identity, Luo An asked the person in charge of the hospital monitoring room to transfer the surveillance from last night, and soon found the white young man.
The other person was wearing a hat and kept lowering the brim of his hat along the way. However, when he was going downstairs at the corner of the stairs, in order to avoid the two oncoming patients, the surveillance camera caught the other person's face.
"Good."
After briefly expressing his gratitude to the person in charge of monitoring, Luo An took the monitoring records back to Investigation Team No. 5 and asked:
"How about, can we find this guy through the facial recognition system?"
William and other technical agents took screenshots of the video footage, and after typing on the keyboard with their fingers for a while, their faces were filled with embarrassment:
"Sorry, this guy can't be found in the facial recognition system."
Luo An's expression remained unchanged. The facial recognition system records of Federation 05 were all about guys who had made mistakes. The white man in the picture was very young and it was possible that he had no criminal record.
Turning to look at Mona, Luo An continued to ask:
"What about the people in the folder who have been infected with AIDS? Do any of them have the same face as this guy?"
"nor."
A crackling sound came, and Mona frowned slightly as she looked at the information on the computer:
"Not only are there no people infected with AIDS in these two documents, but this white young man is also not among the people infected with AIDS we investigated later."
"What?"
Ryder looked confused when he heard this:
"Could it be that our investigation is in the wrong direction? For example, this guy didn't kill Flavia because of AIDS."
Lacey scratched her head:
"But he still went to Matthew Ethan. How do you explain that?"
Luo An picked up the folder containing the personal information of AIDS patients, sat on a chair and read through it carefully. After a long silence, he suddenly threw it on the table and said loudly:
“Everyone, start now to investigate the family members and friends of these HIV-infected patients!
This white young man killed Dr. Flavia, and went to the hospital to find and prepare to kill Matthew Ethan, probably not for himself! "
