At four o'clock in the afternoon, several police officers were smoking in the alley next to the Los Angeles West Bureau, which was not a gathering area, and the reason why the patrolmen chose to smoke here was that they were close to the trash cans, except that smoking was prohibited in the West Branch.

Wood stood at the mouth of the alley in a police uniform and a cigarette in his hand, looking out, and at the same time reminded his companions: "Why do you think the FBI suddenly came to our bureau?" Why don't I remember what major crimes have happened in the wandering area recently? ”

“FBI？” Miguel leaned over and said, "What are they doing here?" ”

"Shit, why did I watch two guys in black suits coming towards us? They don't want to sue us for smoking in public......"

The police laughed when they heard this, although the United States has a ban on smoking in public, and there is also a law prohibiting smoking within 25 feet in public, but who will send the FBI out for all this, then wouldn't the FBI be busy to death?

"Guys, I'm Agent Dylan from the FBI, who are Wood, Miguel, and Vic?"

Wood asked rhetorically, "Do you have anything to do with them?" ”

"Just to inquire about the personal relationship with Adam on the weekend."

Hearing this, Wood exhaled and said, "Oh, the weekend and Adam...... Hello, Agent Dylan, I'm Wood. ”

Miguel and Vic leaned over at the same time, gossiping, "What happened to the weekend?" Adam? Is he in trouble again? ”

"When it comes to Weekend's relationship with Adam, I think Wood has the most say, but what I can tell you is that Weekend and Adam have a very good relationship, and we all jokingly call Weekend 'Adam's little heel', you know what I mean? It's not that kind of - Kee - friendship, both of these people fall into the category of Frankenstein, once solved a murder case with a drop of blood over the weekend, I thought it was bragging, and it turned out, it's true, can you believe it?! ”

"I can attest to that, Adam has a warehouse in the 77th block, and it's all forensic equipment, but Adam is a bit of a quirky, he doesn't like to be in contact with other people, and he doesn't like people touching his things, except on weekends. ”

The F.B.I. detective turned on the voice recorder before they spoke, and his partner kept recording the words with a pen and a small notebook, which, though sloppy, still made it easy to see what he had written.

Agent Dylan asked, "You guys can take responsibility for what you said, right?" ”

The three policemen, who were completely telling the truth, did not think there was anything in this and responded: "Of course. ”

"Okay, please sign your name."

Ask for transcripts?

Wood was stunned, he didn't dare to sign this transcript, but once the matter involved the transcript of the interrogation, it would more or less make people feel formal, could it be these two people......

"We have one more question, do you know what Adam had to do with Quinn after he was transferred from the Homicide Division to the Western Bureau?"

"I don't know." Wood responded categorically, gritting his teeth and never opening his mouth.

It doesn't matter if this kind of thing is treated as gossip and talked about privately on weekends, if it is really written on the transcript of the inquiry...... Quinn is the boss of the homicide department!

The two FBI agents looked at each other with a clear understanding and did not say a word: "Thank you very much for your cooperation." ”

……

There was silence in the homicide department of the police detective department, and they were robbed halfway through the processing of the case at the Cecil Hotel, and they were extremely angry, and they were supposed to wait for the rabbit to capture the mutant murderer in one fell swoop, and the case of the murderer finally became like this, Adam, the homicide department, didn't count if the brain died, and even the boss Quinn let the FBI take it away and hasn't put it back so far, whoever encounters this kind of thing will not be in a good mood.

Julianne sat in front of the computer and didn't know how to write a report, and if today's events were written, it would immediately become a suspense novel, and it would not be a report written by a homicide detective at all.

Of course, she can understand why the FBI hijacked this deal, only two of the four people on the rooftop survived, and one was the head of the homicide department, and it was impossible for the upper authorities to hand over the case to the homicide bureau at this time......

Bite.

The elevator doors of the Homicide Division opened, and Dylan arrived at five p.m., taking his partner who had accompanied him to the Western Branch.

"Excuse me, but are Julianne of the Homicide Section and Knight 'Drup' there? I'm FBI agent Dylan, and we have some questions for them. ”

Julianne stood up, and the knight, who sat in front of the computer and couldn't figure out what was going on on the rooftop of the Cecil Hotel, looked back at them, and at that moment, Julianne said, "I am, we can go to the pantry and talk." ”

The two FBI agents casually entered the pantry, and as Julianne and the knight sat down on the microwave counter, Dylan asked his own question: "We want to know about Adam and Quinn's relationship, and Adam's relationship with Weekend." ”

"Weekend is Adam's apprentice." The knight didn't want to answer what was going on with Quinn and Adam, so he preemptively answered the simple question, which caused Julianne to glare at him fiercely: "Adam has been in and out of the Cecil Hotel twice on weekends, and they have a very good relationship privately, which your agent who bet with Adam can confirm that Adam was present when he was directing how to analyze the case on the spot." It can be seen that Adam is very appreciative of the weekend and wants to tell him all his experiences, but at the same time, he is not willing to instill his own way of thinking, more often than not, he just chooses to mention the points and let the weekend think alone......"

The knights, of course, understood what the FBI meant by asking these questions, and it was likely that those words would end up as evidence in court.

"So, Julianne?" Dylan reminded Julianne that he wanted another question of his to be answered.

Julianne yelled at the knight and scolded: "OK, knight, thank you for your gentlemanly demeanor, now can you let me talk to the FBI agent alone, anyway, I have been cornered by you, if this interrogation transcript appears in front of Quinn, he will fire me the first one when he returns." ”

Dylan comforted, "Julianne, I don't think you have to worry about that. ”

Julianne took advantage of the knight's signature on the interrogation transcript and asked, "Is the case clear?" ”

"At least two things have been confirmed, first, that the bruise on Adam's head was caused by Quinn's gun; Second, Quinn's gun only has his own fingerprints on it. Another unconfirmed point is that Quinn refuses to have gunpowder tested, explaining that he goes to the training base twice a week to practice marksmanship with his own gun, so it would be unfair to have him tested for gunpowder on any given day. However, this does not prove that Quinn did not shoot on the rooftop. ”

However, there is also a bizarre part of this case, Quinn does not admit to beating Adam, but says that Adam attacked him and put him in a coma; The weekend said that Quinn's head wound was caused by him, and after Quinn killed Adam, the reason was that he was afraid that Quinn would hurt himself. ”

Dylan explained everything to Julianne and said, "That's all I know at the moment, and my task is to find out what Quinn and Weekend have to do with Adam. ”

Julianne said at this time: "Quinn must be lying!" ”

"No matter what, I've got to say what I know, even if Quinn comes back to his place and fires me, I've got to say it." Julian made up her mind and said, "Dylan, if you've been working in Los Angeles for a while, then one thing you must know, it's that Adam and Quinn are mortal enemies!" ”

"It was Quinn who kicked Adam out of the Homicide Section!"

……

At the FBI's Los Angeles headquarters in Los Angeles, when Dylan rushed back with a voice recorder and a transcript of the interrogation, the agent who had made a bet with Adam was thinking about the problem at his desk, with a blank piece of paper in front of him, detailing several key points that he couldn't figure out.

Who locked the door on the top floor of the Cecil Hotel? Why lock the door instead of the combination lock on the door instead of the chain and lock?

The last call on Adam's phone was Quinn's phone number, what exactly did the phone say, was it as Quinn said, Adam planned to use the murderer of the 'violence-sex-assault murder case' in exchange for the homicide detective's police officer ID and police badge?

Weekend?

There was only the name of the weekend, and nothing was written under this name, because once the first two difficult questions were explained, the name of the weekend was almost useless, and he was just a little guy who smashed Quinn with a gun to save his life.

"Joe."

When Dylan returned, he called out the name of the agent who had made a bet with Adam: "I went to investigate the relationship between these three people, and the Western Branch responded more consistently to Adam's relationship with Weekend, saying that the two of them had a better relationship and were more like master and apprentice; can talk about the relationship between Quinn and Adam, the people in the Western Branch no longer speak, and Julianne of the Homicide Section confirmed that Quinn and Adam have a grudge, the rumors that were in full swing two years ago, the first detective in Los Angeles - prostitution - prostitution - case, remember? The one that aired on AMC News. It can be seen that Adam should have wanted to murder Quinn when he called. ”

“YE？ Do you think you're right? Joe looked at Dylan and smiled, "Then please explain to me, why didn't Adam kill Quinn the first time he saw him?" If the chains on the iron gate were set by Adam, what was his intention? ”

"Uh...... Every case is at least a little unclear, right? ”

"That's you." Joe glanced at Dylan and said, "I never allow my case to be unexplained, otherwise why do you think I would challenge Detective No. 1 in Los Angeles?" ”

Dylan didn't speak, then put the recorder and the transcript of the interrogation on his desk, and scolded in his heart: "What kind of old qualifications." ”

"Hey." Joe yelled at Dylan, "Go and put the weekend away." ”

The description of the whole scene over the weekend is too smooth, how he got to the roof of Cecil's hotel, how he fought the murderer, all of which can be corroborated by his injuries. There is no suspicion that he even shot the murderer on the weekend, according to what he said, his gun was knocked out, and the baton was caught by the murderer when he used the baton to fight back, at this time the weekend could only pick up the pistol and shoot the other party to death, if it wasn't for the broken ribs of the other party, he might not even have the opportunity to pick up the gun and kill the other party.

The next answer seemed to be more normal, he said that he only found out that the door was locked after killing the killer and was going to call for backup, only to hear Adam and Quinn talking, and Adam told Quinn that he wanted to use the killer to return to the location of the Homicide Section. At this point, the iron door of the gatehouse opens, and the two argue, and Quinn can't guarantee that Adam will return to the Homicide Division, and the only promise is that he will do his best.

This is true, who can guarantee that someone like Adam will return to a higher position and wear civilian clothes? It's already a miracle that he can stay in this system.

The weekend said that the two quarreled because of this, Adam thought that Quinn had lied to him, and his words were a little excessive, and then Quinn pulled out his pistol in anger and threatened Adam, and hit him on the head with a pistol, during which Adam scolded Quinn for framing him, and finally made Quinn unable to restrain himself and shot at Adam.

In the end, Weekend rushed up and knocked Quinn unconscious......

There are no loopholes.

On the contrary, Quinn said that he was knocked unconscious by Adam as soon as he went to the rooftop, and it seemed that he was deliberately avoiding something, and denied that he had promised Adam to transfer him back to the homicide department, obviously wanting to get out cleanly.

How can this be explained?

Joe leaned back in his chair and said, "Weekend, it shouldn't be a problem, right?" ”
