Chapter 6 Reality Roundtable 11
St. George's MI13 Division Special Operations Unit Office
Arnold sat at his desk, using the intelligent case handling system to retrieve the cases transferred to MI13 by various states, and his eyes quickly swept over the bloody autopsy reports, crime scene investigation reports and follow-up reports, and he had some conclusions in his heart.
These cases range from intractable and intractable cases that are difficult to resolve in various places, while others are specific types of cases that need to be resolved by the FBI.
There are those who commit crimes in cruel ways, those who absconded for a long time, those who have a bad social impact, and those who commit transnational crimes......
I have to say that the dark side of human society, which seems to be calm on the surface, has always been surging with undercurrents.
It's just that some things have been suppressed by the authorities, and in order not to cause panic among the people and for the sake of the overall stability of society, these heinous cases can only be handed over to professionals to digest and detect.
Looking at these fragmented corpses for a long time, looking at these cruel murder methods, who doesn't have a little problem in their hearts?
But that's what the police do.
Arrest criminals and uphold justice.
In just eight words, I don't know how many people's blood and tears are condensed.
Hearing the familiar footsteps coming from the corridor, Arnold raised his head slightly and turned off the file system in his hand.
Charlotte walked in with a black smart helmet.
"Sir."
"Did you find it?" He asked coldly, unintelligibly questioning.
"I found out that the helmet found in Eric's house was indeed a smart helmet developed by [Cole Company], but this helmet was not on the market, and the technicians found that the core chip of the helmet was developed by [Cole Company] inside the helmet, which determined the source of the helmet."
“…… So, can this helmet really enter the [Minghe System]? ”
Arnold stood up from the chair, Charlotte put the heavy helmet in her hand with both hands, Arnold picked up the helmet with one hand, weighed it first, and then carefully checked it, remembering every button and line on the helmet in her mind.
"At present, we don't know how effective the helmet is, but the technicians have reported that there is a power switch on the right side of the helmet, and when you turn on that switch, you can start the helmet."
Arnold turned his helmet and saw a red round button on the right side.
"Sir, we ...... Do you want to find a tester? Let's take a look at the helmet first. ”
“…… Are you worried that Theo is cheating? Arnold glanced at his subordinates.
"Yes. After all, it was a heinous felon, and I feared it was a trap. ”
"Charlotte, can Theo not think of anything you can think of?" Arnold asked rhetorically.
He gently placed his helmet on the table, looked up at Charlotte, and slowed down his speech, as if the instructor was guiding the students.
"Theo, a cunning and ruthless person, naturally thought that we might find a tester to try it with a helmet first, of course he knew that if anything went wrong, I would definitely settle accounts with him. At that time, he will not only face Victor in the [Bloody Eye] organization who hates him so much, but also our MI13...... Do you think he would choose this path? ”
"But ......," Charlotte was still a little worried.
She was worried that this helmet was an assassination prop, and as soon as Arnold put on this helmet, she didn't know what mechanism was in it, maybe a few spikes would be inserted at any time, and ......
Arnold saw Charlotte's concern, and he explained, "Didn't you hand it over to the technical department to scan the internal structure?" ”
"But ......"
"What do you say?" Arnold asked rhetorically.
"This ......" Charlotte frowned and thought, unable to find a good answer for a while, just then Carl walked in, Charlotte raised her hand and pointed at Carl, "By the way, let Carl put it on and try it." ”
Arnold raised an eyebrow and looked at Carl.
It was Carl, who was confused by reality, and then saw the helmet in Arnold's hand, understood Charlotte's intentions, and kicked his eyes in anger.
"Charlotte, I don't remember where I offended you, did I?!"
"What, don't you dare?" Charlotte agitated.
"It's not that you don't dare...... Isn't this a risk, you're worried about something happening to the chief, aren't you worried about me having an accident?! ”
"You? Forget it, ten of you can't tie up to Chief Arnold, it's good to use you as a test subject. Besides, you're trained in combat and react quickly, so you're able to deal with emergencies. ”
“…… Honestly, Charlotte, have you been haunted by the fact that I owed you $200 last month? Karl glared at him angrily.
"I'm complimenting you." Charlotte replied lightly.
"Shouldn't I thank you??"
"No, it should."
"You-"
"Alright." Arnold stopped the quarrel between the two in time.
This cold and hot, people with two personalities, can actually quarrel?
He didn't understand either.
Arnold looked at Charlotte: "The identity of [Hunter] is my request, and Theo has no reason to deceive me." Besides, he also took a certain amount of risk when he did it to the customers of [Cole Company], and as a partner, I should trust him more. ”
"Sir, I heard you right, you have to trust a fugitive who is being sentenced to a serious sentence?" Carl gave an exaggerated expression, "You might as well believe that I'll pay Charlotte back tomorrow." ”
"Are you going to pay it back?" Charlotte understood the second meaning of Carl's words.
Arnold pulled the topic back in time: "I'm worried that this helmet has a face recognition system, and if I don't use it, there may be rejection." Or, this smart helmet will determine that the first person to use it is the user, and when others use it again, they may not be able to use the helmet to enter the [Minghe system]. ”
“…… You're saying that Theo not only killed Eric, but also reset this helmet? Carl looked at Arnold.
Arnold raised his hand and tapped on the helmet: "Do you remember when I first picked the helmet out of the box?" ”
"I remember when the helmet was placed in a bit skewed position...... Charlotte thought back and suddenly understood, "I see, sir, you once said that Eric has obsessive-compulsive disorder, and if he was the last person to touch the helmet, he would have put the helmet back in the box!" ”
"That's right. In other words, after killing Eric, the killer found the dark grid and used this helmet. Arnold's voice was steady, low and magnetic, "What made him touch the helmet and put him back?" I guess, it was reset, and the previous Eric usage record was cleared. ”
"Eric wouldn't use his identity as a [Hunter] to do some strange things in the [Minghe System]." Carl looked disgusted as if he had thought of something disgusting.
Arnold didn't answer, seemingly acquiescing.
Indeed, in a world without the rule of law, what can't a killer do whatever he wants?
Eric's helmet may also record other Hunters' dealings with the Bloody Eye organization, and it is understandable that Theo gave him the helmet and deleted the data for the purpose of maintaining the organization.
In the middle of the night, Arnold looked at Carl.
"Carl, how about you go and investigate?"
"Report sir, in the past few days, I have deployed eyeliner near 92 Lexington Avenue as you ordered, and I have indeed found all strange places."
Carl said, clicking on the tablet in his hand for recording.
"In the past few days, there have been more pedestrians near house 92, and I took out the surveillance and found that these people have not appeared before, and they are not residents in the vicinity, and they are probably monitoring house 92."
Arnold nodded: "How about the incident of breaking through the empty door?" ”
"The state police department is still investigating, but according to their investigation report, the burglar entered through the window of the study on the first floor, but rummaged through the cabinets on the second floor, and it seems that he did not find what he wanted, and was broken by Eric's daughter who happened to be returning home, and the thief took the hostage, but then the police arrived in time to save Eric's daughter, but unfortunately the burglar escaped." Carl looked at the report and reported it truthfully.
"Eric's daughter?" Charlotte frowned, "Didn't she go to a field camp?" ”
Carl shook his head: "Actually, that's just an external statement, she didn't go to a training camp, but a drug abstinence trip organized by the Gambling Addiction Association." During the trip, the staff of the Gambling Addiction Association will closely monitor these addicts, divert their attention, and constantly give positive psychological cues to overcome the addiction. ”
Charlotte nodded meaningfully.
"What's the name of Eric's daughter?" Arnold asked.
Carl flipped through the information: "It's called...... Xiao Qihan. ”
"Is it a Chinese name?" Charlotte looked at Carl.
Carl nodded: "The information shows that Eric's only legal wife is Chinese, but she is dead, and it is estimated that his daughter uses a Chinese name to commemorate her mother." ”
"It's a poor child." Charlotte sighed slightly.
Arnold thought for a long time, and suddenly spoke: "...... Cal. ”
"Yes!" Caught off guard, Carl was startled, and he instinctively took a military stance.
"Does Xiao Qihan still have a sister?" Arnold's piercing eyes looked at him.
"You...... How do you know? Karl was surprised.
"Hmph, her sister...... It should be called Xiao Qiruo. ”
"Sir, you're god!" Carl exclaimed, "Have you investigated this family before?" ”
"Nope. It's just that I've been exposed to her sister's case and knows a little bit about it. Arnold thought for a moment and looked at Carl, "Does Xiao Qihan still live at 92 Lexington Avenue now?" ”
"No, I heard that she temporarily moved to the house of the police officer who protected her." Carl replied.
"It's a wise choice, maybe the thieves will come to the door a second time, and it's really better to protect the only witness." Charlotte sure.
Carl winked slyly at Charlotte, "I've seen that policeman too." ”
Arnold heard this and looked at Carl.
Carl smiled and pulled up the photo of the officer: "Look, sir, it's the little policeman who didn't know what to do before, Adam Smith." ”
