Chapter 213: Higher-up attention
[Ran^Text^Library] "Of course. Novel www.し wxs520.com "He sounded like he was trying to feel strong.
Her cell phone rings and the caller ID is Terrence. She had called him earlier about the murder. Now she has to tell him that the victim didn't do the online bully, but was an innocent bystander. This has caused even greater panic in the region.
"Terrence."
"Katyusha, are you at the scene of the crime?"
"yes, it seems—"
"Did you catch the boy?"
"No, but—"
"Then you can tell me the details later. Something happened again, get here as soon as possible. ”
"This is Katyusha."
Her hands. Something weird, she noticed. He doesn't put the accent on the article as you'd expect, not "this", but more like: this is the detective. Or, as it is, this chair.
But she didn't pay any attention to this strange descriptive expression, because posture analysis is not the first thing to do at the moment; This man is not a suspect, and he is, after all, a person related to the bigwigs of the state bureau of investigation. Hamilton, who is in his 50s, looks like a college defender who went on to politics or business. He worked in the Attorney General's Office in Sacramento. He went back to his seat—they were in Terrence's office—and Katyusha sat down. Royce said he was sent here to investigate.
Katyusha glanced at Terrence. Whether out of respect, curiosity, or both, Terrence couldn't help but look over to Royce, but he didn't say anything to describe the nature of the guest's work—or the nature of his mission.
This boss of hers actually instigated Robert? Ha Pai entered the archives of the Renzhou Investigation Bureau to conduct a secret investigation, which can be said to be too negligent even if it is not a job. Katyusha is still angry about this.
Because she is innocent, of course. Your mom has never hurt anyone. You know that......
Katyusha focused on Royce.
"You're famous in Sacramento. I know your specialty is body language. "This man has broad shoulders. With his hair combed on his back, he wore a suit made of silky fabric, the color of which was that royal navy blue, so it felt like a sharp, uniform.
"I'm just an investigator. I'm more inclined to use posture than the average person. ”
"Ah, here she is again, Terrence, she's underestimating herself. You said she did this. ”
Katyusha smiled grimly. Wonder what Terrence said and how cautious he would be when praising or not praising his own men. Of course, these are all pieces of evidence for making job and raise assessments.
Her boss was always neutral. If you are not sure about everything, then life will be difficult.
Royce happily continued, "So you can look at me and tell me what's going on in my mind. Depending on how I crossed my arms, in what direction I looked, and whether I blushed or not. See what secrets I have. "It's a little bit more complicated than that." She said happily. "Ahh
In fact, she had tried to categorize him as a personality type. He is an extroverted person with both intellectual and emotional qualities. He may have the personality of a Machiavellian shameless liar. Katyusha will be more careful because of this.
"Truly, we've heard of your heroic deeds. That case at the beginning of the month was the madman on the peninsula, right? This case is tricky. But you caught that guy anyway. ”
"We were lucky."
"No, no," Terrence quickly interrupted, "not by chance, not by luck. She is one foot tall and one foot high. ”
Katyusha realized that by saying "luck" she meant that she was not only criticizing herself, but that even the Monterey County Division of the State Bureau of Investigation and Terrence were piggybacking on it.
"What the hell are you doing here, Hamilton?" On occasions like this, she doesn't like to call each other "sir".
"Oh, do anything. I'm here to calm things down. If something goes wrong with the state bureau, the governor's office, the state legislature, or even the courthouse, I investigate and write a report. He smiled, "I've written a lot of reports and I hope someone will read them." You don't know how hard it is. ”
That didn't seem to answer her question. She looked at her watch, and Royce noticed the action, but Terrence didn't notice it. That's exactly what she intended.
"Hamilton is here for Chilton's case," Terrence said, then looked at the Sacramento investigator to make sure he was right, then turned his gaze to Katyusha, "Give us a brief debrief." He said like a captain.
"Okay, Terrence," Katyusha replied not very seriously, noting his tone and the fact that Terrence was talking about the "Chilton case." She has long referred to the chain of attacks as the "Case of the Cross" or "Travis."
Now she vaguely knew what Royce was here for.
She talks about Linden's murder -- the methods of murder and how he got involved in Chilton's blog.
Royce frowned, "So he's expanding his target?"
"We think so."
"What about the evidence?"
"Of course there are some. But there are no specific clues to where Travis is hiding. We sent a search force consisting of the State Highway Patrol and the Special Task Force of the Police Department to conduct the search. She shook her head, "They're not going well. He didn't drive, he rode his bike and was in the dark. She looked at Royce, "Our Gu Xiang thinks he used the evasion techniques he learned in online games to get out of our sight,"
"Who's this advisor?"
"Jon? Boleyn is a professor at the State University of Santa Cruz. He helped a lot. ”
"He also volunteered his time and didn't charge for it." Terrence interjected smoothly, his words like grease.
"Talk about that blog," Royce said slowly, "how did it get involved?"
"There were posts scolding the boy and he was being bullied online," Katyusha explained.
"So he fought back."
"We tried our best to find him," Terrence said, "and he didn't run far." This peninsula is small. ”
Royce didn't say much. But from the look of his intent, Katyusha could tell that he was not only assessing the Travis case, but that he was carefully recruiting people for the purpose of his investigation.
He finally talked about the purpose of his visit.
