Chapter 122 Purpose (Addition 812)
Police Detective Agency.
Lukas Soster and his wife were brought back to the bureau for interrogation.
The impact of this incident was very bad, and it alarmed the top management of the Municipal Bureau.
Rett also rushed to the first squadron immediately.
As soon as they met, Reid took the initiative to say hello, "Luke, you did a great job. If you didn't find Lucas, the police would still be deceived by these two **** guys."
Luke pointed to Marcus on the side, "Marcus and I worked overtime together, he discovered it first."
Rett nodded, and gave him a higher evaluation, knowing that only by distributing the credit to his subordinates can he go higher and further.
Stretched out his right hand and made a fist bump, "Marcus, you did a good job, follow Luke's example."
Marcus finally waited for the fist bump he was thinking of, and grinned with his big teeth.
Rett was a little worried, "Can you confirm that Lucas was caught today? Don't make the mistake again."
David replied, "I have seen his movie, and I can confirm that he is Lucas."
Rett asked, "Then why did you mistake the identity of the deceased? Even if the suspect deliberately deceived, aren't you responsible?
Of course, now is not the time to pursue responsibility, I just want to confirm the true identity of the deceased. "
The deputy team echoed, "I agree with what Reid said, we must first figure out why we misidentified the deceased in the first place, and we can proceed to the next step of the investigation only after clarifying the true identity of the deceased.
Otherwise, there may be another oolong incident. "
David said, "The responsibility is on me, I have seen the dead body, he is very similar to Lucas.
I’m not just talking about looks, but also hairstyles, clothes, and heights.
At that time, the deceased had scars left by resistance on his forehead and left cheek, a large amount of blood stains, and the appearance of a person would change after death.
To a certain extent, it has affected my judgment. "
Luke went on to say, "I don't think David is to blame, I was the first to arrive at the scene.
I asked the informant, the assistant director, about the identity of the deceased.
He told me that the deceased was Lucas Soest, which in itself was an inducement.
And not only him, but the entire crew believed that the deceased was Lucas Soest.
I think that before the police arrived, the main characters of the crew had reached a consensus that 'the deceased is Lucas Soest'.
The person who played the most important role was Lucas's wife Enoch Soster. She went to the forensic room to identify the body and confirmed the identity of the deceased, so the police had no doubts.
So, I think that the people involved in the crew should be held accountable. No one in this group of **** should try to run away. One counts as one. "
Susan said, "I agree with Luke, I suggest two investigation directions, one investigation direction is to confirm the identity of the deceased.
Another one, interrogate Lucas Soster and his wife, they may be the murderers of the deceased. "
Rett said, "Good, let's do this, no matter they are stars or celebrities, they will have to pay a price for daring to deceive lapd.
Now bring these two **** into the interrogation room, and the interrogation will be clear. "
"Yes, sir."
There are more people who deceive the police, and the suspects will lie more or less.
But Lucas is a star, not only the police thought he was dead, but fans in the entire United States and even other countries knew that he was dead.
This matter has too much impact, if it is not handled properly, lapd will become a laughing stock.
…
Susan went to the forensic room to retest the identity of the deceased.
Ramon and Jenny investigate the situation of movie double Abu Guerra.
The deputy team and David are in charge of interrogating Enoch Soest.
Luke and Xiao Hei interrogate Lucas.
In the interrogation room.
Lucas has been handcuffed to the interrogation chair.
Luke asked his name again, "What's your name?"
"Lucas Soest."
Luke goes straight to the point, "Why kill your movie double, Abu Guerra?"
"I didn't kill him! His death has nothing to do with me."
"It's hard for me to believe your words anymore, because you have failed the trust of the police, and even the whole of America thought you were dead. My mother is a fan of your movie, and she mentioned you to me last night, saying that she would support your new Movie.
That's how you repay the fans by deceiving them like idiots.
why?”
"I never intended to deceive fans, it was all a misunderstanding, it was an accident. I didn't expect this to happen."
Luke pressed, "So, you admit that you accidentally killed the double Abu Guerra?"
"nonono, his death really had nothing to do with me, swear to God."
"God is busy registering Abu Guerra and has no time for you."
"It's true what I said, we just wanted to use his death to promote the movie, but it doesn't mean we are the murderers who killed him.
please, please believe that I really had nothing to do with Abu Guerra's death. "
Luke has been observing him, his expression is very sincere, and he doesn't look like he is lying.
But remembering the last time he made a record for his wife, he was also crying and heartbroken.
"When did you know that Abu Guerra was dead?"
"I can't be sure that the person who died was Abu Guerra, I just guessed.
“The night before yesterday, after shooting the scene of being buried alive, I went back to the hotel to take a shower and almost passed out in the toilet.
Director Bell has very high requirements for actors. During this period of time, I have been filming with all my heart, almost non-stop day and night. I am very tired and have been in a sub-healthy state.
I feel like I can't go on like this, my body can't take it anymore.
I called Director Bell to explain the situation, and he also knew what I had done during this time, and agreed to my recuperation for a few days.
First shoot the shot of the double Abu Guerra.
After getting permission from the director, I felt relaxed and turned off my phone, so that I could completely relax.
The next morning, my wife woke me up and said Director Bell had called.
I thought my vacation was wasted, but I didn't dare to delay, so I answered the call quickly.
On the phone, I learned that a corpse was found in the big pit that was filmed last night. Its appearance, hairstyle, figure, and clothes were very similar to mine. They mistakenly thought that the dead person was me.
I thought of Abu Guerra for a while. I used to shoot movies at night, and the light was dim, and people often misidentified us.
I wanted to rush to the scene to clarify the matter, so as not to cause rumors in time, which would affect the investigation of the case and the work of the crew.
However, I was rejected by Director Baker, who asked me to continue my vacation and not to contact the outside world for the time being.
I asked him why, and he asked me if I wanted to become popular again, and if I wanted the movie to become popular?
I answer, I want to, very much.
He asked me to hide, let the matter ferment for a while, and then take the initiative to stand up after a while, so that it can promote the movie without causing too much influence on me. "
Luke asked, "You believe what he said? I don't believe that things will be so simple. Don't think that you will be fine if you pick yourself out. The police must listen to the truth."
"What I said was true. I also questioned it at the time. What if the police find out? What if the police arrest me? How can I explain to my fans.
Baker told me that he has filmed many detective-themed movies, and he knows that the police generally do not reveal the details of the case, nor do movie fans know the details.
He also asked me to go on a long trip in the wild, saying that I was a person who survived in the wilderness and evolved my mind. I didn’t know that I was “killed” until I came back a few days later. I took the initiative to go to the police station to call the police.
He arranged everything and let me follow his plan.
I know it might be risky, but... I need this job, and I dare not offend him. "
Luke simply recorded in his diary, "Does anyone know about your fake death?"
"My wife and Director Baker."
Luke put down his pen, "Give you another chance, who else?"
Although the director has great rights, Luke does not believe that he can decide this matter alone.
Lukas Soster hesitated for a moment, "And the producer Rosie Bill."
"Who is the chief ambassador?"
"I don't know, Director Bell contacted me.
I knew it was wrong to do so. I didn't want to promise him at the time, and I was worried that I would be found out by the police.
But director Bell said this is what producer Rosie Bill meant.
At that moment, I knew I had no choice.
If I go against their wishes, I won’t be able to get along in this circle, and it will be miserable. "
Luke pressed, "Why did they ask you to do this?"
Lucas sighed, "Hollywood shoots 500 movies a year, but only one-tenth of them are really hot. The rest of the movies can keep their money. Most of them will lose money.
No one can guarantee that their movie will be a hit, no one can accurately predict the market and grasp the hearts of the audience.
So, they hoped to increase the popularity of the movie through my fake death, just like Fast and Furious 7. Although Paul died, the movie sold well, and everyone except Paul himself made money. "
Luke said, "You are right, Paul is dead, but you are not dead, and you are also one of the biggest beneficiaries."
Lucas covered his face with his hands, "Sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out like this."
Luke stared at each other, "Lucas, can I trust you?"
"Yes, you can, I'm innocent."
"The murderer may have been injured when he killed the victim Abu Guerra. We want to check your body for any injuries."
Lucas frowned, "Is it mandatory? Can I refuse?"
"Of course, this is your freedom. If it is a suspect, he will refuse."
Lucas said firmly, "I'm not a suspect."
"That's what everyone sitting in this chair says."
Lucas was silent for a while, "I am willing to let you check your body, because I am innocent and have a clear conscience."
"Good, my impression of you has changed." Luke said to Marcus, "Take him to the lounge for inspection."
Xiao Hei frowned, somewhat reluctantly, "I'm a straight man, and I don't like seeing men naked."
"Me too, but there is always someone going, I believe you can." Luke patted him on the shoulder.
"OK." Xiao Hei took a deep breath, "I'll go."
"Know what to check?"
"Of course." Xiao Hei opened his mouth and made a biting motion.
Luke checked the wounds on the body and speculated that the victim might have bitten the murderer before his death and left tooth marks on the murderer.
He gave a thumbs up, "Waiting for your good news."
