Chapter 124 Possible Business Trip, There Is only One Truth
The next day, Luke went to a pre-appointed car shop and bought a used Ford Focus.
The second-hand Focus that's been around for more than a year is in good condition, and the price is less than $10,000.
After driving this second-hand Ford, Luke went to the police station.
At the desk, Elsa looked tired, saw him coming, and greeted, "Let's go, Dustin is looking for you."
Luke followed Elsa and asked casually, "You didn't go back to rest last night?"
Elsa couldn't help yawning: "No, I'm busy checking Sergey's information."
Luke's heart moved: Why rush to check Sergey?
Entering Dustin's office, the head of the major crime team was also tired and unshaven.
Seeing the two come in, he just nodded and motioned Luke to close the door.
After closing the door, he said, "Katie's case is basically settled, and now, it's still Sergey's problem. Luke, Elsa thinks you can go to New York and try hard to see if you can catch it. Catch this guy. Would you like to go?"
Luke was stunned for a moment, and said doubtfully: "But... the police station over there is willing?"
Dustin sighed: "This is up to you to go over and see if you can negotiate a good solution."
Luke was speechless.
What's the matter, he is just a new young police detective, what can he use to negotiate with the New York Police Department? It was the largest police department in the United States, more than twice as many as the Los Angeles Police Department.
Dustin looked at his expression and explained: "It's like this, you go to find out the situation and see if you can find an opportunity to arrest Sergey in a relatively remote place, then the New York Police Department should agree. This case The director has already negotiated with the other side, and the other side's meaning is the same. As long as you don't arrest people in crowded places, then they can allow you to go there and assist them in handling the case."
Luke hurts.
That is to say, but the initiative in this case is entirely in the hands of others.
He and Elsa went there, just two soy saucers.
He looked at Elsa, and Elsa nodded slightly.
Luke knew that it meant she wanted to go.
What can he do? You only came to work the next day, so you might have to travel?
He could only say: "I obey the boss's arrangement."
Dustin was relieved: "That's good. This operation will have to wait for two days, and the negotiation with the NYPD has not yet been completed. You are ready. There must have been a lot of troubles in the past, waiting for you to deal with them. Come on. Bar!"
Elsa and Luke nodded and left.
Back at her desk, Elsa asked, "Are you okay?"
Elsa knew that she should tell Luke in advance, but for some reason, she didn't do it.
Luke shook his head: "No problem. However, can we also investigate the case of Sergey's fat son's drowning? While we still have some time."
Elsa was stunned, but he didn't expect him to mention this.
But Luke's performance yesterday made her dare not despise this young man anymore, so she asked, "Do you have any clues?"
"Sergey is of Russian descent, and Selev, Katie's security guard,
Hearing the name is also Russian, right? ' he said.
Elsa was stunned for a moment. She was patronizing the case of Katie's murder yesterday, and she never thought about it.
Now reminded by Luke, he suddenly wakes up: "You suspect that it was Serev who secretly put Sergey's fat son into the villa? Or did he kill the fat son? Well, no, if Serev killed Sergey's Son, I will definitely not live now."
Luke: "I asked Sally yesterday, and she said that in addition to the front and rear doors that can be opened on the remote control panel in the room, Selev also has a remote control device so that he can open and close the door when he welcomes guests."
Elsa patted her forehead: "Yes, let's go! Go to the villa first, Chacha Selev."
Of course Luke didn't have to drive his own car this time, it was a tolerance, he set off in Elsa's car.
In the car, Elsa couldn't help asking: "Are you sure there is something wrong with Selev? Is there any evidence?"
Luke shrugged: "Forget it, Sergey, after all, we are not sure whether he climbed the wall and entered the villa. But Sergey's fat son weighs 200 pounds. I really don't think he can enter the villa from other places. The back door is the biggest possibility."
He lied about this.
Just yesterday, his keen sense of smell played a huge role.
He was in Katie's room, and he smelled Selev, the combination of gun oil, gunpowder, and body odor, too obvious in Katie's room.
He knew that although Serov was a security guard, he couldn't go in and out of Katie's room at will.
And according to the concentration of the smell, at least he entered the room several hours ago, that is, before dawn.
A security guard entered the female employer's room in the middle of the night, and the female employer drowned in the pool.
There is a problem with this.
Secondly, the smell of Selev also appeared on the outdoor road leading to the back door, and the smell was not light, obviously he had walked back and forth several times.
The smell also appeared in another location - by the pool.
However, the smell similar to his is the smell of another person. It is also the smell of gun oil and gunpowder, and there is even the smell of some Chlorophane.
According to the autopsy results, the anesthetic in Katie's body was Globan.
This man with the smell of Glover had also entered Katie's bedroom, and Selev's smell also had a very faint odor of Glover.
The reason why Luke closed his eyes in Katie's room was to use his keen sense of smell to distinguish smells.
So, there is only one truth: Selev is an insider.
It was he who secretly put Sergey into the villa, and may even cooperated with Sergey to stun Katie and threw it into the swimming pool.
Finally, he sent Sergey out the back door again.
Only in this way can many doubts in this case be explained.
Only in this way can the trajectory of the smell that Luke smells make sense.
Luke followed the back door and followed the smell, but he completely lost the clue when he reached the main road.
Therefore, he could be sure that the surveillance at the back door of Ginny's house must have captured Sergey.
In an originally troublesome case, with his newly acquired ability, he easily found the murderer and the inner ghost.
The two arrived at Katie's villa, rang the doorbell, and Sally opened the door.
After entering the room, Elsa asked, "Where's Selev? We have something to ask him about."
Sally: "Oh, I saw him in the backyard just now. I'm going to call him?"
Elsa and Luke looked at each other, and she said, "Let's go over together, just a few words."
The two didn't want this guy to wake up and run away.
But in the backyard that was clear at a glance, there was no trace of Selev at all, only the small open iron door.
