20.6 Washington Parcel Bombing Case VI
When Paj pushed the door in, Aaron was talking and laughing like two people who had a great relationship.
Padge smiled, "Am I wrong about something?"
Aaron smiled, "Nothing! I suddenly found out that Du and I have very similar personalities, and we should be able to make good friends." ”
Padge smiled at Aaron with a playful smile, then placed the papers in her hand on the table in front of the two of them.
Padge, "The test there's out. Du's guess was correct, and the marks on the steel pipes, which contained explosives at the site of the first explosion, were canine bite marks. And it was the dog that bit out the steel pipe that Du Ping brought back. So we hit the jackpot, and we got closer to that serial explosion maniac than any other lab......"
…………………………
In the F.B.I. interrogation room, a skinny man was handcuffed on the steel interrogation table, none other than Carter, the owner of the pet store that Mr. Du had gone to in the afternoon. As the discoverer of the suspect, Shema and Lisa in the crime lab sat across from him and officially began his interrogation.
Shema, "Carter?"
Carter, "yes, what's the matter?"
Shema, "I think that since you're sitting here, you should know why we're looking for you, right?"
Carter, "I don't know. Do I have to know?"
Shema, "This is the FBI, and we're not going to look for you without proof." Don't you really want to say something?"
Carter, "I won't say anything until my lawyer comes." This should be in line with the spirit of the Constitution, right?"
Shema, "Yes, no problem. ”
Xie Ma and Lisa came out and left Du Ping with a helpless expression. Identification information has been passed in, and it has been confirmed that the bite marks on the steel pipe are the same as those recovered from the bomb at the first crime scene. But the fingerprint samples that Mr. Du brought back were not the same as Carter's. It's good news and bad news. This incident made Du Pingping and everyone puzzled.
Lisa, "Could it be someone else?" or some other accomplice?"
"I don't know, I can only wait for Aaron to get permission from the court." ”
At this moment, the door to the room was opened, and Aaron walked in from the outside. Holding a court approval in his hand.
Aaron, "How's it going?"
Everyone shook their heads almost in unison.
Shema, "That guy doesn't say anything, he must wait for his lawyer to come over." ”
Aaron, "It's okay! I've got the court's permission and we can now search his home, his pet store, his garage, everything. ”
Shema, "Damn! I'm going to wait here for that damn lawyer to come over." ”
Aaron looked at Du Fair.
Aaron, "I'll go with you." ”
Du Pingping nodded.
…………………………
In the afternoon, Du Ping went to the basement. The landlord was a sloppy fat old man, who didn't look like he had never woken up drunk. He looked at the court approval that Aaron had presented.
The landlord, "This basement, I have rented to someone else. I don't have the right to go inside casually, even if they make drugs inside. Old Qom's character was made of gold. So I refused. ”
Aaron, "You don't, we have." The court has given us the mandate, so if you refuse, we'll have to open the door violently and break in. ”
Landlord, "Whatever, I'm not against it." ”
Aaron glanced at the detective who followed, and nodded. A team of people came to the door of the basement, and one of the detectives smashed the door open with a hitbox, and the crazy barking of countless pets was immediately heard inside. Several detectives rushed inside, and after a while, there was a signal from inside that the detectives were safe. Aaron and Du Ping walked into the room one after the other.
It was still a room that came in the afternoon, and there were many dogs in countless cages, as well as some small animals such as cats and pigs. Countless detectives spread out, and soon a utility room was opened, and after a while, Aaron's voice was heard greeting Du Fair.
Aaron, "You come and see." ”
When Du Ping passed, there was a workshop full of debris, a small platform for work, and a welding machine and other things.
"I'm sorry, I don't understand much of this. ”
Aaron, "I'll arrange an FBI training class for you, it's actually all things that can be used to make bombs, and I'm sure the prison will be excited." ”
…………………………
In the interrogation room, Carter, the pet shopkeeper, and the lawyer were whispering. On the single-sided side of the glass side of the interrogation room, Shema and Lisa watched the scene inside side by side.
Shema, "What do you say they're talking about? If only you could hear them." ”
Lisa, "It's useless to hear it, the court will not accept the evidence gathered in this case." So we can only be patient. ”
Shema, "They won't accept our terms." ”
Lisa, "Honestly, don't expect too much from yourself, that guy didn't look like a very good guy to deal with in the first place. I could see the indifference in his eyes, maybe he didn't care too much about his own life. ”
Shema, "I hope your prediction doesn't hold. ”
Lisa, "They're going to be fine." ”
Soon, the two saw the lawyer in the interrogation room make a gesture in this direction. The two looked at each other, and Lisa walked into the room first.
…………………………
Aaron's cell phone rings.
Aaron, "What? ”
Aaron closed his phone and walked over to Du Fair's side.
Aaron, "Lisa's side, the man submitted an alibi. Lisa has also confirmed that the evidence is true. ”
"That person can't be a criminal?"
Aaron, "Yes, unless there is new evidence. Otherwise, he is innocent now. ”
Du Pingping, "However, it depends on what the appraisal results are for us over there, right?"
Aaron, "yes, so he still can't leave." ”
…………………………
On the way back, the car broke down, and then the rain poured down, drenching Aaron and Du Ping to a soaking wet. Back at the lab, there was even worse news from the supervisor: what was found in the pet store did not make these bombs.
It seems that for a while, all the bad things in the world have gathered.
Du Pingping felt as if he was also a little dizzy and had chills on his body.
Du fair, "Lisa, do you have cold medicine there?"
Lisa, "I suggest you find a formal clinic to have a look. ”
"I'll take two cold pills first, and if it's not good, I'll go to the doctor." ”
When Lisa was looking for Aaron, Aaron didn't seem to be feeling well, but after saying that Du Ping might be sick, he still happily granted Du Ping a leave to go home and rest, but asked Du Ping to turn on his mobile phone 24 hours a day and must come back during work tomorrow morning.
It was Lisa who sent Du Ping home, but when she got home, Du Ping just wanted to go to bed as soon as possible, so she didn't care how Lisa left.
When he woke up the next day, Du Ping suddenly found that he had crawled on the head of his bed, and at some point he didn't know when he had crawled the body of a long-haired woman. This person must not be Lisa, Lisa is blonde, and this person is redheaded.
Who is she?
As soon as Du Ping moved, the woman woke up. When she looked up, Du Ping finally saw her face clearly, and it turned out to be Susan.
"Susan, why are you?"
Susan, "I called you last night, and it was Lisa who answered it. She said you were sick and I came over just fine. How's it going, are you feeling better?"
"It's much better!" It's just that I'm a little mentally tired, and I feel sluggish when I look at everything. ”
Susan, "Looks like you're not okay yet. ”
"But I don't want to stay in the room." ”
Susan, "Then I'll walk you around the streets." ”
Susan's eyes were bloodshot and her voice was a little tired. Du Ping suddenly felt that she must have not slept all night last night and had been taking care of herself. I was inexplicably moved in my heart.
"I'm not going out." Just in the house activity activities, by the way to see the information. You're going to rest for a while?"
Susan, "Are you really going to go out for a walk? Actually, it would be better for people who are sick to get some fresh air." ”
"No, it won't." You can rest for a while, and then sleep in my bed. ”
Susan, "I'm really tired, so you're welcome." ”
Susan generously slipped into the blanket that Du Ping had just given and fell asleep. Soon, he let out a light gasp of deep sleep. Looks like I really didn't sleep all night last night taking care of myself.
A kind of emotion arose in Du Pingping's heart. Du Ping gently covered Susan with a blanket and closed the door.
Du Ping was not going to go to the laboratory today, so he came to his small study and began to organize his thoughts. Although the pet shopkeeper's clues were denied, Du Ping did not think that he had made a mistake. Now thinking back to the details of the whole incident, there is a detail called Du Ping Strange. That is, it is clear that Carter had enough alibi evidence in the first place, why he would play with his side, he must wait for the lawyer to arrive. How can he be sure that he will be able to buy time for the people he wants to help?
The bite marks on the steel pipe are consistent, which indicates that this clue is relatively close to the real one. But there are no tools to make the bomb in the basement, so how could the dog have access to the steel pipe associated with the bomb?
Du Pingping stood up, and there was a sudden movement, wanting to immediately leave and walk around the basement. However, when I saw the bedroom with the closed room, I thought of Susan inside. Still stopped.
Outside the corridor, there seemed to be the sound of Belle walking, and Du Ping hurriedly walked over and opened the door, but it was actually another person, a young man.
"Good morning, guy!"
Du Fair, "Good morning!"
The door closed, and Susan had opened the bedroom door and stood there in a slim manner.
Susan, "Are you going to work?"
Du fair, "No. ”
As if there was no confinement of the soul, Du Pingping said bluntly.
"I just feel like something must have been revealed when we went to that pet store last night to collect it on the spot." ”
Susan, "For example?"
"The shopkeeper already had an alibi, but he didn't show it until the end. He had the key to the basement, and he had to refuse to give it, so we had to break in. And that landlord is also suspicious. ”
Susan looked at Du Fair laughing, and Du Fair couldn't help but stop, suddenly thinking about the scene of three Regan women touching each other's drinks at Regan's house on Thanksgiving night.
"Women can't compare to swords and swords!"
Du fair, "I'm sorry. ”
Susan, "Why do you want to say you're sorry?"
"As a boy, I think I should have asked you if you wanted something to eat or drink. ”
Susan, "I'm a Reagan woman, do you know how the Reagan women are different from the women out there?"
Du Fair, "I don't know. ”
Susan, "We appreciate men who work hard. Tell me, Du fair. What are you going to do now?"
"I'm going to go to the pet store again." ”
Susan, "Don't let a bad guy go?"
Du fair, "Don't let go of a bad guy." ”
Du Ping and Susan looked at each other and smiled.
…………………………
It's still the basement, and the wooden door that was broken yesterday has been repaired. Du Ping stood on the top of the stairs, and had no intention of going down.
Susan, "Aren't you going down and have a look?"
Du fair, "Not prepared." I believe in the ability of FBI agents and the ability of laboratory experts, and if this place was searched last night and nothing was found, then with my ability, nothing will be found. ”
Susan, "And why are you standing here?"
"I want to see how some of last night's messages were going to be received from Carter, if they were meant to be a warning to someone. ”
As far as the eye can see, there are 7 or 8 storey apartment buildings on both sides of the street.
Susan, "Unless you check all the people here, it's hard to find the person you're looking for." ”
"Not necessarily. ”
Susan, "What's your catch?"
"It's like playing a paper cup game when we were kids, one person has a paper cup, connected by cotton thread, the two are far away, and only one person can talk and listen to that kind of thing at a time." Have you played it?"
Susan, "I've played too." What's wrong?"
"Carter has to make sure that the message he delivers is received by that person." And the message sent by that person, he can also receive it. If Carter hadn't received the man's message, I think he would have held out until the last minute of the 48 hours. So I believe that last night, Carter's message was not only successfully delivered to the person he wanted to deliver, but the message that that person was going to deliver back was also successfully delivered back to Carter. Do you understand something?"
Susan, "I see, your cold is good! ”
"It seems like this. Susan, let's go to the coffee shop on the street, sit down and have a cup of coffee, eat some cake, and wait for the FBI agents, shall we?"
Susan, "I'd love to hear from you. ”
Du Fair, "Thank you!"
Susan, "I'd be happier if you hadn't been so polite to me." ”
…………………………
Aaron in the crime lab is not at all as good as Du Ping is now. Although he also took some medicine, Aaron, who had only been treated on the couch in the laboratory overnight, had a headache in the morning, during which time he received a criticism and urging call from the upper echelons of the FBI. When the meeting was held in the morning, I didn't see Du Ping coming.
A grumpy, irritated, restless mood filled Aaron's entire brain, mixed with uncontrollable headaches.
Padge, "Aaron, you should have a doctor! ”
In Aaron's office, his friend Padge is trying to persuade him to pay attention to his body.
Aaron, "Do you think I still have time to rest? And that wonder boy from the East, who didn't come in the morning or ask for leave. I had a good talk with him last night, but when I look at it today, it's the same again. Is this a deliberate attempt to anger me?"
Padge, "Aaron, think you're a little sensitive. ”
Aaron, "Am I really sensitive? I feel like I'm really good-tempered." ”
Pa Ji, "Although the contact time is not long, judging from the rumors, the attitude of daily work, and the general style of work of the Dongliu people, Du Ping is by no means a passive and slow worker. So I don't think you're going to be right to make a judgment when you're not rational. ”
Aaron, "You're also interceding for him, crying out?"
At this time, the phone on the desk rang, and Du Ping's voice came from the phone.
"I'm outside that pet store right now. ”
Aaron, "What are you doing there?"
Du Fair, "I asked Peggy to help me check just now, guess what I found?"
Aaron, "What did you find?"
"That landlord last night, that drunken big fat man, turned out to be a bomb expert in the army when he was young, and a partner who joined the army at the same time as Carter's father. What do you think when you hear this?"
Aaron's mind calmed down suddenly, and after thinking about it carefully, the information that Du Ping had just investigated was really important.
Aaron, "You mean, this guy is the real Bang Guy?"
"We wasted a lot of time last night, I don't know if we have a chance now. But I think we'd better apply for a search warrant to check his residence. ”
Aaron, "We don't have evidence, and the evidence for us to apply for a search warrant is probably very difficult." ”
"You're the leader, I'm here now, I'm looking at the house, but I'm not sure I'm going to show anything." ”
Aaron, "Got it, I'll figure it out." ”
The phone closed, and Aaron looked at Padge.
Aaron, "Did you hear that?"
Padge, "Yes. ”
Aaron, "What's your plan? You know, I'm in a terrible state right now, and I have a headache that keeps me from concentrating. ”
Padge, "Lisa and Shema are both from the field, and I think I can send them to help immediately." A search warrant from the court, I think the FBI will support us. ”
Aaron, "Okay, just do what you planned. ”
