"Have you been in the room since you came back?"

At the door of the master bedroom on the second floor, a sheriff from the Beverly City Police Department looked inside the room and asked, "Has anyone else been in?"

Matthew shook his head slowly, "No, I opened the door and saw that the room had been turned over, so I immediately retreated, and then called the police." ”

In fact, he called Helen Herman first, and Helen Herman and Amanda were on their way to Horner Manor, but they arrived in just a few minutes, and Helen Herman immediately advised Matthew to call the police after seeing the scene.

It is most appropriate to leave this matter to the police.

Another detective was questioning the maid in the villa, who had also been asked by Matthew, who had been staying on the first floor and had not noticed anything unexpected on the second floor.

There were also detectives who went to the doorman's side.

The sheriff, Bernatti, asked Matthew a few words and said, "We're going to have a technical survey of the site next, and it may take a while." ”

Matthew nodded, "Yes." ”

He then went down to the second floor and into the living room on the first floor, where Amanda and Helen Herman were sitting on the couch talking.

Seeing Matthew come down, Helen Herman immediately asked, "How's it going?

Matthew came to sit down on the single sofa across from them and shook his head slightly, "The police are going to conduct a technical screening, I haven't been to the room yet, and I can't be sure what was missing." ”

Amanda frowned slightly, "Isn't Beverly Hills safe and secure?"

"That was before. "In recent years, as the economy has deteriorated, more and more unemployed, and the law and order situation in Los Angeles has deteriorated, this situation has also affected Beverly Hills, where there have been more thefts in the last two years than in the last ten years combined." ”

Matthew shrugged, "Beverly Hills is populated by rich people, and if I want to invest something or something valuable, Beverly Hills is the first choice." ”

Amanda looked up at the second floor and said, "The security of the manor needs to be strengthened." ”

"I guess the person who came in specially chose tonight. Matthew already had some speculation, "The news that we are going to hold an auction has been spread for a long time, and I will definitely not be home tonight." ”

He couldn't help but shake his head and smile, "This thief is still a man with a heart. ”

Helen Herman felt that Matthew had a lot of truth in what he said, and said, "I may have been eyeing you for a long time." She thought for a moment, then said, "Your security here, you'd better strengthen it a little more." ”

Matthew nodded, "I'll have Brown come over tomorrow." ”

In the past, when he was in the Delta Force, Brown Williams practiced how to kill and rescue, but after he retired from the army and became a bodyguard, his main focus was security, and he can be said to be an absolute professional.

Although there were thieves in the house, Matthew was not too worried, there was basically no cash in the Horner Manor, and there were not many valuables, such as a rough stone bathtub worth 100,000 dollars, which he couldn't steal quietly, and the real value was basically his haute couture clothes and expensive watches sponsored by Rolex.

However, the watch is not placed in the bedroom, but in the safe on the first floor.

Thinking of this, Matthew got up and entered a room next to the living room, opened the safe and looked at it, and more than twenty Rolex watches were lying in the safe.

Helen Herman, who followed him, asked, "Not stolen?"

"Nope. Matthew closed the safe and said, "This is the most valuable thing in the manor." ”

He walked outside, and said as he went, "Before you came over, I asked the maid to check briefly, except for the master bedroom on the second floor, there was no trace of any movement in the other rooms. ”

Back in the living room, Matthew talks to Amanda and Helen Herman again, and the police upstairs complete the scene investigation, and Sheriff Bernati asks him to go up to see what items are missing.

Amanda and Helen Herman also followed Matthew up to the second floor and into the huge master bedroom together.

Entering the master bedroom, Matthew saw several places temporarily put up the barrier, and Sergeant Bernatti explained next to him, "These are the areas where the people who entered the room have mainly moved, and we are collecting all kinds of traces, which will be withdrawn soon." ”

Matthew took a look, and the places where the partition was enclosed were basically near the shelves, cloakrooms and bedside tables, and most of the storage space in the bedroom was also in these places.

The shelves seemed to be missing something, the bedside table had been flipped, a few photos of him and Britney Spears and Charlize Theron pressed under the notebook were missing, and everything else should be missing.

Matthew then went into the cloakroom, where all his haute couture and some sportswear were placed, a dark gown was missing, and a drawer that had been filled at the back had been emptied......

After checking it, Matthew told Sheriff Bernatti about the items that were roughly missing.

"What's in the drawer?" Sergeant Bernati noticed that Matthew had forgotten to say.

Matthew shrugged, "My panties." ”

Poof-

There was a strange sound behind him, and Matthew looked back to see that Helen Herman was still calm, but Amanda couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

Amanda asked curiously, "What is this man doing stealing panties?"

Matthew shook his head, "Who knows." ”

Helen Herman said calmly, "I guess I've encountered a fetish or something." ”

Sheriff Bernarti scratched the back of his head, and it was not uncommon for a Hollywood star to have a drawer of new underwear stolen.

Matthew didn't want to dwell on this topic and took the initiative to ask, "Sheriff Bernati, did you find out?"

Sergeant Bernatti immediately replied, "There was only one person who entered the bedroom, and judging by the footprints left behind, it should be a male." He turned and walked towards the open window and beckoned to the three Matthews, "Please come here." ”

Matthew, Amanda, and Helen Herman immediately followed, and Sergeant Bernati pointed out the window and said, "Judging from the marks left at the scene, the intruder climbed up with his bare hands from under the cliff in the mountain." ”

Amanda leaned over to take a look, very close to the villa, is a section of the cliff of Beverly Hills, although the cliff is not high, not 90 degrees straight up and down, but the visual angle of inclination is also 80 degrees, and the height is more than 50 feet, it is impossible for ordinary people to climb up.

Sheriff Bernarti pointed to a mess of flowers and grass below the villa, and said, "From there he climbed up, broke into Mr. Horner's house, climbed up the second floor along the downspout, and opened the window and entered this bedroom." ”

He looked at Matthew, "According to Mr. Horner's description, the intruder stole four or five photographs, an old-fashioned video camera, a dark haute couture suit, and ...... Ahem, a drawer of unused panties. ”

Matthew nodded, and glanced at the shelf again, it was the first camera he had acquired, and he thought it was a memorabic when he moved, so he specially kept it and put it in the bedroom.

Was there anything special in the camera? He tried to remember.

Sergeant Bernarti continued to say the police's judgment, "The intruder should have had a large backpack and considerable climbing experience, and he had succeeded in stealing and then fled the same way. He pointed out the huge floor-to-ceiling windows and said, "It's harder to go back than climb up a cliff like this, and it's probably a rock climber." ”

Matthew chose to buy this mansion when he was impressed by the cliff on the side of the floor-to-ceiling windows, which was both a natural obstacle with a commanding view of Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, but he never thought that someone would actually climb up.

Not to mention ordinary people, even if he is a guy with relatively developed motor cells, he can't climb up by asking himself.

Anyone who can climb such a cliff and retreat safely with a bag of things must have received professional training.

This is also one of the few clues that the police can get at the scene.

Sergeant Bernarti then reminded, "Mr. Horner, I personally recommend that you re-plan the security measures on this side. ”

Matthew nodded, "I'll perfect it as soon as possible." ”

He didn't want this kind of theft to happen a second time, and when Brown Williams came over tomorrow, he would have to make some adjustments.

The police were busy here for more than an hour, but unfortunately the clues that could be collected were very limited, and before Sergeant Bernatti left, he specially told Matthew to keep the scene for two days for the time being, so that the police could do a more detailed technical investigation of the scene in the future.

Matthew responded, but before the police left, Helen Herman pulled Sheriff Bernatti as the person in charge to talk for a long time, as a case involving a popular Hollywood star, it is impossible to keep it secret, but the two sides are bound to agree on some things.

Beverly is home to a large number of wealthy celebrities, and the Beverly Police Department has a lot of experience in this area and has a well-established set of procedures.

Seeing off the Beverly City Police Department, Matthew returned to the living room, Amanda sat on the couch with her coffee in hand, and Helen Herman kept walking back and forth with her chin in her hands.

"There is no negative impact on this. Helen Herman thought about it carefully, "You ask Bella Anderson to update her blog, voluntarily disclose the theft, and attach a few photos of the scene, so as not to leave too much room for the tabloids to hype." ”

Matthew nodded, agreeing with Helen Herman's suggestion.

"There's no such thing in the lost picture, is it?" Helen Herman knew Matthew understood what he was asking.

"No!" Matthew was very sure, "those pictures are my photos with Charlize Theron and Britney......"

Speaking of Britney, he suddenly remembered something, when he was still living north of Burbank, Britney used to use this camera to shoot a video of the two living together.
