Chapter 182 Shakira
Kidnapping cases generally have a golden 72-hour statement.
Before the kidnappers achieve their goal, they usually maintain the life of the meat ticket.
The possibility of starving and freezing is relatively small, but it is difficult to completely avoid beatings and abuse.
The longer the kidnapper is tied, the less patient and irritable the kidnapper will be.
The kidnapped will also experience tremendous psychological pressure, and it is easier to lose their rationality and anger the criminals.
Once the kidnapper loses patience, he may tear up the ticket.
Minors are less able to bear than adults, and they are prone to cry and fuss when they are unfamiliar or scared.
It is more likely to anger the kidnappers, and it is not easy to last three days.
Definitely have to work overtime tonight.
The threatening email was handed over to the Technical Department for investigation.
Luke started looking at the surveillance video of the Kalea community.
Judging from the bloodstains found at the scene, the time of the incident may have been between nine and twelve in the evening, and Luke also focused on checking vehicles during this time period.
It is impossible for two living people to disappear out of thin air, and the kidnappers need transportation to take them away.
Viewing monitoring is a boring job.
Luke used to dislike watching surveillance, but since he started practicing observation, this situation has changed.
When people are doing what they like, time will pass quickly.
Luke took advantage of this mentality and consciously took this as an opportunity to exercise his observation skills when viewing the surveillance.
It's a bit similar to the feeling that everyone comes to find fault.
Although it seems a bit self-deceiving, it still has a certain effect.
People’s psychological function is very powerful. Under the self-psychological suggestion, Luke found that he was not so repulsive about checking and monitoring.
With a "snap!", Luke hit the space bar.
The screen freezes, and a white Toyota sedan appears on the screen, the license plate number is 7qeb332, and the time is 11:35 p.m.
Luke partially zoomed in on the video, and he could see the driver's appearance from the surveillance.
A middle-aged Asian woman—Amy Ma.
There is no one in the co-pilot of the car, and the situation in the back row cannot be seen.
But judging from this situation, Amy Ma drove away at the time of the incident, so she is suspected.
Luke called Matthew over and pointed to the computer screen, "Amy Ma left in her white Toyota during the time of the incident, can you continue to track it?"
"Sure, but it might take some time."
"It's worth it, this clue is very important."
"As you wish, Deputy Luke." Matthew finished speaking, as if thinking of something again, "I just found another piece of information about this car.
The current registered address of this white Toyota is Kalea Community, but I checked the previous information and found that the previous registered address has changed.
The original registered address is No. 102, Boya Community, Binny Street.
Hope this thread is useful to you. "
Luke nodded, "I'll check."
…
At around six o'clock in the evening, Luke took Xiao Hei and left the police station.
Getting into the car, Xiao Hei started the car and asked, "Where are we going?"
Luke replied, "Go eat first, and then check the original registration address of the car, maybe you can find some clues about Amy Ma."
"Good idea, I ate a hamburger at noon, and I'm counting on this meal tonight." Xiao Hei swallowed, "What do you want to eat?"
"Mexican Burrito." Actually, Luke didn't have many choices. Now that the case is so urgent and everyone is working overtime, it's good for the two of them to come out to eat. Naturally, we should choose the quick and convenient one.
Xiao Hei said while driving, "To be honest, I also felt a little uncomfortable when I learned that Betty might have been kidnapped. I'm used to seeing life and death, but I still feel very uncomfortable when I see a child in an accident."
Luke lit a cigarette, "You're right, that's why we work overtime."
"Too many things have happened recently. I haven't seen Jaden for a while. I want to go and see him when I have a break." Xiao Hei sighed, thinking of Julian, and thinking of Jaden. Reliable mother.
He was really worried about that kid.
Luke took a puff on his cigarette, "Go ahead, if you need help with money, I can help.
Don't bother me about the rest. "
Xiao Hei "..."
Xiao Hei just wanted to say thank you for Jaden, but swallowed the second half of the sentence.
Luke's reaction...how should I put it? Very Luke.
Do what you can, but are afraid of trouble.
However, Luke was able to speak so bluntly, obviously not treating him as an outsider.
Xiao Hei replied, "I see."
Luke asked curiously, "Have you contacted Julian?"
"No, I am still young, and there is a great forest, I will forget her." Xiao Hei said pretending to be relaxed, and waved his right finger, "Man, let me smoke too."
"No, you're a pervert." Luke frowned. He didn't have the habit of smoking a cigarette with others.
"I'm not a pervert, I just want to smoke while driving."
"Don't think about it, drive well."
The two had a simple meal at a Mexican restaurant, and it took only ten minutes in total before continuing to drive to the registered address of Amy Ma's car.
…
No. 102, Boya Community, Binny Street.
This is likely to be the residence of Amy Ma, considering that she may be both a victim and a suspect.
In order to avoid arousing surprise, Luke did not park the car in front of the house, but parked a little farther away.
The two walked to the No. 102 residence.
Luke went to the window and looked in, but found no sign of anyone.
Afterwards, Luke walked to the door and knocked, "Boom."
Still no movement.
Luke pointed to the lock, "Can it be opened?"
Xiao Hei took a look, "It should be fine."
Xiao Hei took off the key chain, fiddled with it, and the door opened with a "click".
Xiao Hei showed a proud expression, "You know what?
My mother said that I have been very smart since I was a child, as long as I want to learn, there is nothing I can't learn. "
Luke nodded, "I often heard white lies from my parents when I was young, so don't take it too seriously."
Xiao Hei, "..."
Luke took out his pistol, and the two entered the house one after the other.
"Ka..." Luke turned on the wall lamp on the wall.
The living room was a bit messy, with a lot of sundries. Luke touched the coffee table, and there was already a thick layer of dust.
The house is small in size, with two bedrooms and one living room. The two searched it quickly, but found no suspicious person.
There are photos of Amy Ma in the room. It seems that the two of them found the right place. This should be her residence.
Afterwards, the two searched the room carefully.
Xiao Hei opened the closet and took out an accessory from it, "What is this? It looks a bit like a hat, is it made of silver?"
Luke took it over and took a look, "Miao silverware uses a variety of techniques such as pressing, cutting, engraving, and hugging, and often requires ten or twenty processes to complete."
Xiao Hei exclaimed, "It's so beautiful, I like it.
In the future, I will also give one to my future girlfriend. "
"as long as you are happy."
"Dong dong..." There was a sudden knock on the door outside.
Luke and Xiao Hei were stunned.
Luke signaled Xiao Hei to hide aside, then he looked out through the peephole and saw two people wearing IRS uniforms.
Luke opens the door.
A Latina woman with **** lifted her jacket and showed her badge, "We are from the National Taxation Bureau, and I am investigator Shakira."
Luke looked carefully, "What do you guys want?"
"Is Amy Ma there?"
"No."
"What is your relationship with her?"
Luke shook his head, "It doesn't matter."
Shakira shook her head, "Do you think I will believe it? You live in the house she rented, and the same black hair and the same black eyes symbolize that you have the same blood."
Luke laughed, "Aren't you being a bit arbitrary?"
"OK, tell me then? Where is she? What's your relationship?"
Luke spread his hands, "Why should I tell you this, I don't even know what you are here for?"
"We found out that Amy Ma was suspected of tax evasion and tax evasion, and the amount involved was not small, and the cycle was very long. If she is convicted, she is likely to be sentenced to prison.
If you have financial dealings with her, you'd better be careful. "
Luke said again, "I said, I have nothing to do with her, and I don't know where she is?"
"Then why are you in her rented house?"
"How did you find out that she rented this house?"
Shakira stared at Luke, feeling something was wrong, "Who the **** are you?"
Luke also lifted his coat, revealing the police badge inside, "lapd."
Shakira patted her forehead and sighed, "Which department are you from?"
Xiao Hei came over and said, "We are from the Robbery and Murder Division, I am Detective Marcus, and this is Deputy Team Luke.
Beauty, nice to meet you. After finishing speaking, Xiao Hei stretched out his hand, wanting to take the initiative to shake hands with the other party.
Shakira ignored him, looked at Luke, "You decide here."
"Is there a problem?"
"Are you trying to trick me just now?"
"No, I said that I have nothing to do with Amy Ma, and I don't know where she is. I'm telling the truth. It's because you stubbornly think that we all have Asian blood, so there must be a kinship relationship."
Shakira spread her hands, "You open the door and stand here, it's really easy to be misunderstood."
Luke said, "That only shows that your observation skills are not enough."
Shakira sneered, "Congratulations, you have successfully angered me."
"It's not my intention, I'm just stating the truth."
Xiao Hei interjected, "Guys, are you here to quarrel? We should work together and share information.
Our two departments are the most powerful departments in Los Angeles. It doesn't matter whether it's Amy Ma or Jack Ma. "
Luke stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation, "Come in, we can have a good talk."
If the other party can find this place, they must have found some clues, which may be of some help to the detection of the case.
Shakira walked in with a black male colleague, searched the room, and said to Luke, "Our IRS rarely cooperates with other departments."
Shakira's words are not arrogant, but from the confidence of the IRS.
IRS is very powerful, has its own independent armed force and law enforcement power, and is well equipped.
Luke said, "In general, our lapd doesn't want to cooperate with other departments.
But the problem now is that Amy Ma is involved in a kidnapping case, and she is likely to be the victim of the kidnapping case.
If she dies, her tax situation will be difficult to find out. "
Shakira said, "Even if she is dead, she still has to pay taxes."
