Chapter 267 Speechless
Luke flashed his police badge, "Deputy Chief of the Robbery and Murder Division Luke."
"Oh..." Markwell raised his voice, and took a step back instinctively, "What's the matter?"
"Darcy misses you, let me say hello to you on his behalf."
"This kind of joke is not funny."
"I'm not joking, I'm telling the truth, come with us."
"Wait a minute, I've already made a record, and it was made by Captain Chen of the Second Squadron of the Robbery and Murder Division. Why do I still have to go to the police station?"
"I know that you have made a record, but what you are involved in is a poisoning case that has serious harm to society, and the case is relatively complicated.
In view of the new investigation progress of the case, we would like to check some information with you. "
"Uh...then why don't you guys call?
It's impolite to come directly to the door like this, and this is not my house, but my friend's house.
You will disturb my friend's normal life by doing this. "
Moses nodded, "Markway is right, you guys are very rude. If I hadn't had a good temper, I would have complained to you."
Luke ignored this sentence, they were originally here to investigate Moses.
Moses once went to Shanyuan Supermarket to buy red wine, which is probably related to the mineral water poisoning case.
Matthew checked the network IP under his name, found the equipment that used this IP through the network, and found traces of browsing black market websites on one of the computers. The other party suspected that he had bought highly toxic cyanide, so he came to implement arrest.
Discovering Markway was just an accident, but it was also this accident that connected the clues of the entire poisoning case together.
From the existing situation, Mark Wei is likely to be the key figure in this case.
"Moses, we are not only here to find Markway today, but also to find you."
"What do you want me for?"
Luke took a glance and found that many neighbors came out to watch the fun, "This is not a place to talk, how about we go to the police station to talk?"
"No, don't even think about it, I'm not going anywhere, let alone the police station."
Xiao Hei showed his arrest warrant, "Moses, this is beyond your control.
You either go on your own, or you wear a beautiful silver bracelet and we **** you away under the watchful eyes of many neighbors. "
"My dear, arrest warrant, why are you arresting me?"
Luke urged, "Stop talking nonsense, put on some normal clothes, and follow us back to the police station.
Markway, you too. "
"I don't have time now. I still have work this morning. I'll go to the police station in the afternoon."
"Dulcey is dead, what job do you have?"
"This is none of your business, I said, I still have things to do. The premise that I am willing to assist the police investigation is that it does not affect my work."
"Then I can only arrest you."
Markway asked a little unwillingly, "Do you have an arrest warrant?"
"No."
Markway breathed a sigh of relief, "Then you are not qualified to arrest me."
Luke originally wanted to fool Markway to the police station first, but the attitude of the other party obviously couldn't work.
However, this also shows from another angle that he has a guilty conscience.
If you can’t do soft things, then come hard ones.
"Markway, the police suspect that you are likely to be a suspect in the poisoning case. You are suspected of committing a major crime and causing great social harm. Considering the safety of the citizens of Los Angeles, I have the right and the obligation to bring you back to the police station first. "
"nonono, I have nothing to do with the poisoning case, you can't frame me, I'm Darcy's agent, I don't want him to die the last.
You can't catch the murderer, so you want me to be the scapegoat? "
"Don't worry, when we get back to the police station, we have plenty of time to talk." Luke waved, "Take them both away."
Moses shouted, "Hey, don't touch me, let go of your hand."
"Are you resisting arrest?"
"I'm going to change clothes."
…
Luke contacted Susan and told her about the situation at the scene.
Subsequently, Luke, Xiao Hei, and Jackson escorted the two suspects back to the police station with the assistance of the police.
Raymond and Jenny stayed on the scene and searched Moses' house with the technical team.
On the way back, Luke kept thinking about the next interrogation.
Based on Luke's experience, the trial of this case will not be easy.
Relatively speaking, Markway is more suspicious.
So, Luke is going to interrogate Moses first, learn some information from him, and test his attitude to see how much he knows about this case.
Return to the police station, Mark Wei was temporarily detained.
Susan also does not plan to interrogate the other party for the time being, because the evidence is still insufficient, and she has already applied for an arrest warrant and a search warrant. At that time, not only Moses' house will be searched, but Markway's house will also be searched, hoping to obtain more valuable evidence.
Half an hour later, Luke and Xiao Hei interrogated Moses in the interrogation room.
Moses folded his hands on his chest, glanced at Luke and Xiao Hei from the corner of his eyes, and his thick lips were pouted.
Xiao Hei whispered in a low voice, "I feel like she needs to be beaten."
Luke smiled, "Moses, would you like a cup of coffee?"
"No, I don't like cheap coffee."
Xiao Hei reminded, "You should adapt early, maybe today's coffee is the best coffee you can drink in the next few years, or even decades."
Moses dissatisfied, "What do you really mean? Are you threatening to put me in jail?"
"Hey, don't always use words like threats and discrimination, it will make me look down on you, understand?"
"This is my freedom, and I don't need anyone to look down on me."
Luke interrupted the argument between the two, "Moses, do you know why we brought you to the police station?"
"I just heard you talking about the poisoning case. I know Dalsey is dead. My boyfriend is his manager. You arrested me for this?"
"That's right, we found the evidence that you poisoned Darcy." Luke knocked on the information bag on the table, "It's all here, we all know what you did."
"Sorry, what did you say?
I?
You think I killed Dulcey?
How is this possible? I have no grievances with him, and we are not familiar with each other.
I have absolutely no reason to kill him. "
"You have a reason.
Your boyfriend Markway is Dulcey's agent, and there is a conflict of interest between the two of them.
So, you bought cyanide off the internet and poisoned him in his mineral water. "
"nonono, you are talking nonsense, I have never poisoned, let alone bought cyanide."
Luke took out a piece of information from the information bag, "We found your home network IP address."
"so what?"
"A Dell computer used this IP to log into a black market website to buy cyanide, is that you?"
“I don’t have a Dell computer, but I use an Apple computer. I only use Apple products and never use other brands.”
"Then whose Dell computer is it?"
"God, this is terrible!" Moses patted his cheeks with both hands, "I don't know what to say."
Luke presses, "You buy cyanide with other computers."
"No, I said I didn't buy cyanide, never, and haven't logged on to a black market website.
not me. "
"Who is that?"
"I do not know who did that."
"That computer uses your home IP, you told me I don't know.
If you don't want to tell us, you can only tell the jury. "
Moses fanned the wind with his right hand, "I feel so bad, I don't want to betray...I'm really so hard."
"Moses, my colleagues are searching your house. Even if you don't tell us, we can find out. However, you were also suspected of committing the crime at that time."
"I said, this matter has nothing to do with me, and I don't know who used my home network to log into the black market, but... I know who has a Dell computer."
"who?"
"Markway."
"Markway Sarkozy?"
"Yes."
Luke nodded, "You don't have to feel guilty, you just told the truth, which is fine." Luke probed further, "Did Markway poison Darcy?"
"No, I don't know, I don't know anything. What I said is true, if you didn't come to the door today, I wouldn't even know about buying cyanide.
It's horrible, I can't believe it. "
"How's the relationship between Markway and Darcy? Have there been conflicts between them?"
“They used to have a good relationship, but…there have been conflicts recently.”
"What contradiction happened?"
"I asked Markway, but he didn't want to say more.
However, I heard the two arguing on the phone, and it seems that Dalcey is about to terminate the contract.
Markway called him an ungrateful bastard. "
Luke wrote down in his notebook, "Have you ever been to Shanyuan Supermarket?"
"Yes, I have been."
"What are you doing there?"
“That supermarket is not far from my home, and I occasionally go to buy some food and supplies.”
"Have you ever bought Cafira brand red wine in the supermarket?"
"How did you know?"
"It's not good? I was so angry when I said it." Moses was crying, as if caught in a bad memory, "During that time, the relationship between Markway and Darcy was very tense, and they were not very happy.
I wanted to make him happy, so I arranged a romantic candlelight dinner and bought a bottle of Caféra red wine.
We drank red wine and chatted, the atmosphere was great.
I spent a lot of time preparing that day, but I think it was all worth it.
Just as he was about to finish eating, Markway said he was going to the bathroom.
I didn't think too much about it at the time, so I drank red wine and waited for him quietly, but he didn't come out after waiting for a long time.
At this time, I feel a little pain in my stomach.
It's that feeling of wanting to... go to the toilet.
I went to the bathroom door and knocked on the door to let Markway come out.
But Markway said he had a stomach upset and would have to wait.
My stomach hurt very much at the time, but Markway still occupied the toilet, so I could only go to the toilet on the second floor.
At that time, every step was very hard, and I climbed to the second floor with my legs crossed, just when I opened the toilet door..."
Moses clenched his fist and knocked on the table vigorously, as if remembering something unbearable.
"Did you pull it into your pants?" Xiao Hei suppressed a smile.
Moses glared back, "Can't you have some empathy, you bastard? Do you know how embarrassed I was?
Love dinners, romantic dates all ruined. "
Moses covered his head, "God, that day was a disaster, a complete disaster."
Luke pressed, "Have you ever wondered what's giving you stomachaches?"
"I thought about it, we thought it was food at first, but the two of us like to eat different foods, some he doesn't eat, some I don't eat.
Foods we both eat, and less likely to have such a serious problem.
Later, Markway discovered that there was something wrong with the bottle of red wine. He found a pin-sized hole in the cork of the red wine bottle.
He thought that there might be a problem with the red wine, which caused the two of us to have a stomach ache.
Later, he also fed red wine to our cat, Kate, and poor Kate also started having a stomachache and stained my couch.
I shouldn't have listened to him then. "
"Since there is a problem with the red wine, have you approached Shanyuan Supermarket for compensation?"
"I wanted to seek compensation from the supermarket, but Markway told me not to go. He persuaded me for a long time, and I agreed."
"What reason did he persuade you?"
"He said that Darcy often went to that supermarket to buy things, and he was good friends with the owner of the supermarket. If we claim compensation from the supermarket owner, it may affect his relationship with Darcy.
Considering he and Dulcey are in a cold war right now, I said yes.
I really want to help him. "
"Darcy often goes to Shanyuan Supermarket?"
"Yes."
"Has Markway been there?"
"Yes. However, I don't think Markway is a suspect in the poisoning.
I know him, he is a very kind person.
This is why I am willing to be with him. "
Xiao Hei asked, "Do you love him?"
"Yes, I love him."
Xiao Hei spread his hands, "That's right, love is blind."
…
After interrogating Moses, Luke and the two returned to the office.
Raymond and Jenny are responsible for searching Moses' home.
The deputy team and Jackson search Markway's house.
Both sides found some new clues and evidence.
Luke prepared to arraign Markway Sarkozy after summarizing the evidence from both parties.
As soon as the two sides met, Mark Wei couldn't wait to ask, "How is Moses?"
"He is fine, we have reached an agreement, and he is willing to appear in court to identify you."
"Determine me what? I don't even know what you're talking about."
Luke patted the folder several centimeters thick, "Markway, we have made a lot of preparations, and we will interrogate you only after we have enough evidence.
Darcy has become so successful, he thinks you have no use value, so he wants to terminate the contract with you and go solo.
You are angry, very angry.
So, you poison him and kill him.
Of course, there are many small stories in it, such as the red wine of Cafira brand and you throwing poisonous mineral water in the subway station in order to interfere with the police investigation.
We checked it out. "
Markway shook his head, "I have never done anything you said."
"It seems that you still don't give up." Luke took out a document from the folder, "Do you have a Dell laptop?"
"Yes, is it illegal to use a Dell computer?"
"No, but using a computer to buy cyanide on a black market website is against the law. Although you deleted it, the police still recovered the content you browsed and the transaction conversation through technical means.
It's useless even if you don't admit it. "
“Even if my computer has a black market purchase record, it may not be operated by me, it may be used by someone else.”
"Your computer has a password, and only your fingerprint is on it. Tell me, who else will use that Dell computer except you?"
"That doesn't mean I'm the murderer."
"We found a black BMW in your garage, it should be your backup car.
My colleague checked the car's dashcam, and on August 24, you drove near the poisoned subway station.
We also saw the young Tom who helped you carry the mineral water to the subway station in the dash cam. Luke pointed to the document and said in a stern tone,
"Markway, you have a motive, a record of buying cyanide, contact with a person who assisted in the poisoning, and you have been to two poisoning sites. These evidences are enough for the jury to convict you."
Markway was silent for a moment, then shook his head, "I was wronged, I didn't do it."
"Then explain why you bought cyanide? Why did you go to the subway station? Why did you meet Tom?"
"I didn't poison you!" Markway said firmly, but he didn't mean to explain.
"You refuse to plead guilty?"
"I am not guilty."
"OK, let's talk about why Dalsey terminated the contract with you? In the end, I found out, and I also know that this is your motive for committing the crime, so there is no need to hide it."
Markway sneered and refused to answer.
"comeon, I'm just curious, you can make a hypothetical statement and the court won't accept it."
Markway pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "Hypothetical statement."
"Yes."
Markway took a deep breath, "He's just a bastard, an ungrateful villain.
He used to be just a construction worker with no future.
It was me who discovered his talent and made him a stand-up comedian. "Markway showed an angry look, and seemed to want to express his inner dissatisfaction.
"It was I who helped him step by step to the present, becoming a well-known talk show actor, and even getting him an invitation from a TV station.
And this time, he offered to break off the contract, son of a bitch.
Do you know what is more exasperating?
I cherish our cooperation and friendship.
I offered to lower the agent's commission, but he still didn't agree, so he still wanted to terminate the contract.
I ask him why?
This **** actually said that because I am gay, it might affect his reputation in the future! "
"Bang bang bang!" Markway knocked on the table vigorously, angrily shouted,
"He's just a funny stand-up comedian with a **** reputation.
And I am very clear about the division, work is work, and feelings are feelings.
Never did Passover, and he's not my thing.
Moreover, from the time we two met, he knew that I was gay, so why didn't he worry about affecting his reputation at that time.
Now that he's famous, he's using such a ridiculous excuse to dump me.
He's a complete jerk.
He is insulting me! "
Looking at the other party's expression filled with righteous indignation, Luke asked along the way, "So, you poisoned him to death."
"No, I'm just making a hypothetical statement.
There are many haters in this world, but it doesn't mean that hating someone means killing the other person.
I did not poison.
Don't try to wrong me. "
"Markway, you should be very clear that even if you refuse to plead guilty, the jury will still convict you based on the evidence found by the police.
And this process may make you more tormented. "
Markway smiled, "Deputy Luke, if I plead guilty, can I get a favorable plea deal?
tell me the story. "
Now, it was Luke's turn to be silent.
"I knew it.
You can't give, you can't give anything.
Even if I plead guilty, it is the death penalty. "There was a touch of desolation in Markway's smile,
"I'll see you in court."
Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass!
