Chapter 123 Evidence (Happy May Day, big chapter)
One o'clock.
The team members returned to the office one after another.
Susan called everyone to the conference room for a meeting.
She took a sip of coffee to refresh herself, "Guys, tell me about the progress of your investigation.
Raymond, you go first. "
"We investigated the situation of Abu Guerra, he is Lucas's substitute, and his physical characteristics are very similar to Lucas." Said, Raymond put a document on the projector,
Decedent, Abu Guerra
Mobile phone number, 6268433123
Date of Birth, May 2, 1988
Address, 132 Harvey Street
Social Security Number, 623-52-7767
Occupation, actor
Raymond continued, "The deceased was not a native of Los Angeles. We have contacted his parents and asked them to come to the police station to identify the body."
Susan added, "I notified the forensic doctor. When Abu Guerra's parents come, they will have a DNA test. I will keep an eye on this matter to determine the true identity of the deceased.
Tell me about your interrogation. "
Luke organized the language, "We made a record for Lucas, and he refused to admit that he had anything to do with Abu Guerra's death.
In his words, they just borrowed the death of Abu Guerra to hype up the film to achieve the purpose of selling the movie.
And behind the scenes is the director Bell Grue.
In addition, according to him, the producer Rosie Bill was also involved in the matter. "
The deputy team continued, "The situation on our side is similar. Innosha Soest admitted that she deceived the police and deliberately mistook Abu Guerra's body for Lucas.
The purpose is to influence public opinion and help promote the film. In addition, I also hope that my husband will have a topic and regain popularity.
She also admitted that she was instigated and even threatened by director Bell Grue.
In his words, if they disagree, Bell Grue will probably block Lucas.
And according to director Bell Grue, the producer also acquiesced in this matter.
In short, the confessions of the husband and wife are very similar, either telling the truth or colluding. "
Luke added, “We offered to check Lucas for any injuries and he agreed.
After Marcus's test, Lucas had no teeth marks on his body. He should not be the murderer who killed Abu Guerra, at least not himself. "
The deputy team said, "We also asked the policewoman to examine Enoch Soest's body, but she refused. From my experience, when they react, they will definitely ask a lawyer to help with bail.
We can't keep them locked for long if we can't find new clues. "
Susan concluded, "From the current situation, in addition to Lucas and his wife, director Bell and producer Rossi are also suspected of participating in forging evidence, at least the two of them are insiders."
Luke added, "The assistant director is the informant, and he was also the first to discover the body and the first to identify Lucas. I think he is also suspected. He is probably one of the accomplices."
Jenny asked, "Why is it forging evidence, shouldn't it be homicide?"
Luke explained, "There is currently no evidence to prove that they are the murderers who killed Abu Guerra. We can investigate secretly, but there is no way to use this excuse to summon."
I think for the convenience of investigation, we can temporarily divide it into two cases.
The first case is the murder of Abu Guerra.
The second case is the case of using Abu Guerra's body to fake Lucas' death.
Although the two cases may be committed by the same group or the same person, before there is not enough evidence, the other party will definitely report it as a fluke.
Simply split the two cases to make the complicated case simple. As long as they admit to one of the cases, clues to the other case may be revealed intentionally or unintentionally during the interrogation process.
Once there are logical problems before and after their confessions, it proves that they lied in this place, and we can follow the clues to investigate. "
Susan nodded, "That's a good idea. According to the existing evidence, both Bell and producer Rossi are involved in the case of perjury, but there is no evidence that they are related to Abu Guerra's death.
Even if we asked about the murder of Abu Guerra, they would definitely not admit it.
Then interrogate the clues of the perjury case first, and convict one of them. As long as the people are controlled, we have the name of investigation. As for the content and method of the investigation, they are all within the operable range. "
The deputy team suggested, "I suggest summoning director Bell and producer Rossi overnight to prevent these two from colluding."
Susan asked concerned, "Deputy team, can you handle the investigation overnight?"
"My own body, I know it well, if I am tired, I will find a place to rest by myself."
Susan didn't say any more, and directly arranged the task, "Luke and Marcus are responsible for summoning the director Bell.
Ramon and Jenny are in charge of subpoenaing producer Rosie. "
…
It's two o'clock in the morning.
Bell's house.
Bell is an old bachelor who has never been married. He usually lives alone and hires a nanny to clean up on time.
The second floor was transformed into a theater, and the decoration and equipment alone cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
At this time, the movie "Special Warfare" was playing in the theater, and Bell Grew was the only one in the audience.
He watched it seriously, as if he was watching this movie for the first time.
This movie is very important to him, and it is the movie with the highest box office and the best reputation he has been in the industry for many years.
He also became famous by relying on this movie.
But the movie is like a spell that he can never break again.
Since then, he has also directed some films, and his reputation is mediocre, the box office is not very high, and his reputation in the industry is not as good as before.
Many people say that he is exhausted.
He doesn't admit it.
He himself couldn't figure out why the special warfare was so popular back then?
This is an action-revenge movie with little connotation and ordinary shooting techniques, but it just became popular.
Many people think of special warfare when they mention him.
It made him happy but also a little depressed.
He always wanted to go beyond the previous work, and wanted to make another better movie, with word-of-mouth and box office reaching new highs.
Let the world know that he can do it. He didn't rely on luck and bonuses to shoot special warfare heroes, but on his own talent.
"Boom boom."
He faintly heard a knock on the door.
Bell Gru frowned slightly, who would come so late?
Paused the movie, went downstairs, checked the access control monitor, it was the handsome black-haired policeman.
Hesitating for a moment, Bel Gru opened the door and said in a slightly dissatisfied tone,
"What's the matter knocking on the door so late? You better give me a reasonable explanation."
Xiaohei smiled, "I want to tell you that the special warfare heroic style you filmed is shit."
Bell Grew was stunned, "Are you out of your mind? Just to tell me this at night.
Immediately disappear from my door, if you don’t get out, I will complain to you. "
Luke smoothed things over, "Director Bell, don't get angry, this is just a joke.
He was just a little outspoken. "
Bell Gru "…"
"You came to me in the middle of the night just to provoke me on purpose?
OK, you have succeeded. "Bell Gru made a gesture to close the door.
Luke pressed his left hand against the door, "We found Lucas."
Bell Gru showed a look of panic, "What nonsense, he is dead."
"Stop pretending, Lucas has already confessed the fact that you partnered to murder Abu Guerra.
Director Bell, you have been involved in the crime, and in your next life you can only shoot Broken Back Mountain behind bars. "
Xiao Hei winked, and said with a cheap smile, "Maybe it's the leading role."
Luke glanced at him, "You're really a bitch."
"Thank you for the compliment." Xiao Hei was not proud of being disobedient.
Bell Grew was a little at a loss, "I don't even know what you are talking about? I have never killed anyone, and I can't even kill dogs!"
"Although you are a director, your acting skills are really not good, much worse than the Lucas couple." Luke showed the arrest warrant, "Come with us."
…
Detective Bureau, interrogation room.
Bell Gru leaned back on the interrogation chair, looking anxious.
Before Luke asked the question, he took the initiative to say, "I didn't kill anyone. I have nothing to do with Abu Guerra's death. You have found the wrong person."
Luke said, "You don't want to explain, we can only accept the testimony of Lucas and his wife. They confess that you are the mastermind of the case, and you instructed them to kill Abu Guerra.
wanted to use Abu Guerra's death to promote the movie.
"Don't believe the lies of their husband and wife, they are liars, and I have nothing to do with Abu Guerra's death.
I admit that I know that Lucas is not dead, and that it may be Abu Guerra who died, but this does not mean that I have anything to do with Abu Guerra's death. "
Luke took advantage of the situation and asked, "So, you admit that you are the mastermind who faked Lucas' death?"
"I admit that I know about this matter, but I am not the mastermind, Lucas is the mastermind. I just acquiesced in this matter, and can only be regarded as an accomplice at best."
"Lucas and his wife identified you together, and you are the director. You have the final say on everything on the set. No matter from which angle you look at it, you are more like the mastermind."
"I can explain." Bell Gru was a little panicked, the attitude of the police made him a little scared, worried that they would side with the Lucas couple, took a deep breath,
"I did know about Abu Guerra's murder earlier than the Lucas couple.
That morning, as soon as I woke up, I received a call from the assistant director, saying that someone died on the set.
I was a little worried and asked who the dead person was.
The assistant director said it might be Lucas.
I called Lucas right away, but his phone was off.
Afterwards, I called Lucas's wife again, only to find out that Lucas was not dead.
At this time, we realized that the person who died might be Lucas' substitute, Abu Guerra.
The two of them look alike, otherwise, he wouldn't be Lucas' stand-in. I know the assistant director may have made a mistake.
Afterwards, I hung up the phone and prepared to tell the assistant director about it so that he could confirm whether Abu Guerra was dead.
But at this time, Lucas called again and proposed a plan. He hoped to use his suspended animation to help promote and hype the movie.
Of course, this is just his excuse. His real purpose is to become popular through this movie and regain popularity, traffic and topics.
He wanted to be popular, crazy. "
Luke frowned, "Is Akira Kurosawa your idol?"
"I know what you mean, I'm not talking about Rashomon, I have evidence."
"What evidence?"
"I have a recording of the phone call." Bell Grue sighed, this is not something glorious.
Originally, he didn't intend to take it out immediately, but it was difficult for him to deal with it calmly because of the two policemen who played their cards out of common sense.
Bell Gru played a recording on his mobile phone.
【"Director Bell, I have an idea to make this movie a hit."
"Tell me."
"Remember Paul from Fast and Furious 7?"
"What do you mean, explain clearly."
"Since everyone in the crew thought I was the one who died, why didn't we just push the boat along and acquiesce in this matter. If a movie actor is killed in the way of a movie plot, it will definitely set off a wave of enthusiasm, and the hype even surpasses Fast and Furious 7. .”
The conversation was silent for a moment, and Bell's voice sounded again, "What if the police find out?"
"You have seen a stand-in, he looks a lot like me, the crew will occasionally admit it wrong, let alone the police.
And the dead can't speak, we living can.
After a few days, when the hype is almost over, I will take the initiative to go to the police station to call the police to prove that I am not dead.
If the police ask me why I haven’t clarified the facts, I will say that I go hiking alone and I don’t know the outside world.
I know a few buddies who like hiking, they often do this, even if the police don't believe it, as long as they have no evidence, they can't do anything about me. "
There was another silence.
Bell asked, "What do I need to do?"
"I need you to convince Rosie, the producer, that this project will work as long as he agrees.
And once the police confirm my death, they will immediately spread the word to spread the influence of this incident as soon as possible.
I don't want to delay too long, the longer the delay, the more likely the police will find me.
It is best to have three to five days, which will be more reasonable.
After three to five days, I will take the initiative to stand up and announce to the fans and the world that I am not dead, I am back. "
Bell said, "It's a good idea. You will have a topic and become more popular."
"Director, it's not just me who can benefit, but everyone related to this movie.
Didn't you always want to shoot a movie that surpasses "Special Warfare", here is your chance. "
There was another silence.
Bell said in a firm tone, "OK, I will contact Rossi."]
Audio ends.
Bell let out a long sigh and lowered his head. If he hadn't had to, he wouldn't have taken out this audio.
Once word spread, his reputation in the circle would be ruined.
Prayed, "Please don't leak this recording, I am willing to cooperate with your investigation. I will tell everything I know."
Luke asked, "Did Abu Guerra be killed by Lucas and his wife?"
"I don't know, this couple is a ghost, they can't tell me."
"Is the assistant director involved in this?"
"I didn't tell him explicitly. But he is very familiar with the Lucas couple, especially Lucas' wife, and I'm not sure if he knows."
"Thank you for the evidence. I lied before. Special Warfare is very good. There is also the movie Brazilian Lover, my mother likes it very much."
Luke is in a good mood. With this audio, it is enough to confirm that Lucas and his wife are the masterminds of perjury.
Bell Grew sighed softly, "Thank you for your comfort.
But... Brazil Lover was not made by me. "
Luke "…"
…
Raymond and Jenny also finished interrogating Rosie.
Rosie's confession is basically the same as that of director Bell.
Producer Rossi was not deeply involved. He knew about this matter, acquiesced to this matter, and provided some cooperation in publicity.
Immediately, Luke and others interrogated the Lucas couple again.
With the audio evidence, the husband and wife couldn't bear it anymore.
Admitted that they were the masterminds of the perjury case, and the couple did everything they could to become popular.
Luke suspects that they may be the real culprits who killed Abu Guerra, but there is no evidence to prove this for the time being.
After the interrogation was completed, it was already five o'clock in the morning, and the sky was pale.
Rett kindly brought breakfast.
also brought coffee.
Luke "…"
I'm not drinking the shit, I'm going to sleep.
It's the beginning of the month.
Make a summary for April.
It has been on the shelves for nine days, and 95,000 words have been updated.
Can't compare with the tentacle monster, but broke his own code record.
All old book friends know that I am a handicapped party, and I have really worked hard during this time.
In addition to eating and sleeping just code words, there is no other entertainment. I went out for the first time yesterday and went back to my hometown.
Otherwise, with my handicap speed, it would be difficult to keep getting closer.
First order plus 3 more.
The leader added 3 more chapters.
Monthly pass adds 15 more chapters.
Up to now, eight chapters have been added, and 13 chapters are still owed to everyone.
In fact, there are a lot of writing in the running table, but the number of words in each chapter is more. The speed of adding changes is relatively slow.
A plot is split into two chapters at the high C. I feel uncomfortable writing it, and everyone is uncomfortable watching it.
Don’t worry, everyone, the debts will be paid off as soon as possible.
I also don't like the feeling of lack of chapters.
I will work hard to code.
…
It's the beginning of the month.
Double monthly pass.
Then brazenly ask the masters for a few monthly tickets!
Ask for a monthly pass.
Ask for a monthly pass.
Ask for a monthly pass!
