Chapter 686 Investigation Begins, Banknotes Open the Way (3 more)
For example, the best three-step process of "lighting the police badge β LAPDβ looking at the surveillance", Luke can't do it now.
Even if he is confident in his own strength, this search mission really depends on luck to a large extent.
He first found a hidden place and made himself into a handsome non-chief who had a new look from his face to his body.
Then he went to a second-hand car market, bought a Polonaise car in good condition, and drove to a three-star express hotel.
After checking at the hotel front desk for a while, he opened 1026 rooms and paid for three days at one time.
After a while, he went up to the tenth floor, took out a card and swiped it on the door, but in fact he opened the door with the counterfeit mobile phone in his hand and walked in.
After entering, he saw two men in white shirts looking at him with surprised faces, and Luke was full of surprise: "Who are you?" β
The two white shirts frowned: "How did you get in?" β
Luke picked up the room card with a surprised face and looked at it: "This is the room I opened, how can there be anyone?." β
The two white shirts were stunned for a moment, and their faces showed suspicion: "This is room 1024, how can you come in?" β
Luke was stunned: "Isn't this room 1026?" β
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the room number on the door that was still open, and suddenly smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I went to the wrong room." β
The white shirt frowned: "Then how did you get in?" β
Luke looked at the key card in his hand: "Swipe the card door and it opens." β
Two white shirts stood up, and one of them walked over and held out his hand: "Can you see your room card?" β
Luke snorted and immediately handed the key card to the white shirt.
The white shirt took the room card and tried it, but the door opened as soon as he swiped it.
He frowned, took Luke's room card and went to 1026 on the side to try, and the door opened, but the 1025 room opposite couldn't be opened.
After watching him try, Luke asked, "Well, can you give me back the room card?" β
The white shirt hesitated, but returned the room card to him: "Look at the room number next time." β
Luke nodded apologetically, "Okay, I'll take care of it, bother you." β
As he spoke, he opened the door of room 1026 next to him and went inside.
Lying on the big bed in the room, he pulled the quilt back and forth, turned it back and forth a few times, he lifted the quilt and got up: "The bed is not bad." β
With that, he went to the balcony, opened the window, pulled out a lollipop and ate it.
I could still faintly hear the voice of a woman in a white shirt talking to a woman in the aisle: "What's the matter with your door, why do others open it with a card?" β
Woman: "Sir, I'll check first...... I'm sorry, it's true that the door card system is out of order, I immediately called the maintenance staff to deal with it......"
The corners of Luke's mouth curled, observing the surroundings downstairs, and wondering in his heart.
1024 is the room opened by Miss Beth.
1025 is a room opened by two college classmates of the eldest lady.
Miss Beth opened this kind of room, perhaps because she didn't want to expose the fact that she was super rich in front of her classmates.
The two white shirts aren't bad guys, they're Beth's close security.
They occupied Beth's room before she disappeared in order to preserve the scene and make it easier for later personnel to look for possible clues.
They did a good job of not destroying the last known scene.
Luke deliberately went to the wrong room and rambled a lot of nonsense, just to get to know the smell of 1024 up close.
Among them, the male odor can be temporarily eliminated, leaving six women's odor residues.
The most obvious smell was that of Miss Beth herself, indicating that she had indeed spent some time in room 1024.
Of the other five women, two of them also had a residual smell in room 1025, which was supposed to be two of the eldest lady's college classmates.
A person with the smell of detergent should be the cleaning staff cleaning the guest room.
A woman who had a residual smell in many rooms and hallways, who was talking to the white shirt next door, was a member of the hotel's housekeeping staff.
The smell of the last woman is a little interesting.
The place where the woman's scent remained the most was actually in Luke's room 1026.
In addition, the "temporary neighbor" had visited Beth's room, as well as the rooms of two of her classmates, but spent more time in the rooms of those two classmates, and there were only brief signs of Beth's room entering and exiting.
Thinking about the clue in his heart, Luke narrowed.
After eating the lollipop, he turned around and went out, and by the way, he hung a "Do Not Disturb" sign in the room.
Out of the hotel, Luke looked left and right near the door, and walked to a homeless man not far away.
After talking for a while, he gave the homeless man a few beautiful knives, got in the car and left.
After wandering around the homeless man's car rental deals, Luke finally finds a clue in a car rental shop.
Outside the car rental shop, the young male employee of the car rental company handed over a stack of materials.
While Luke was flipping through the information, he heard the young employee say, "They came yesterday morning, but it wasn't them who rented the car, but the woman on the list." She rented a royal blue Mercedes convertible from our company with the license plate xxxxxx, and I have an impression. β
Luke took the information, handed over a roll of American knives, and asked, "Can you remember anything else?" For example, if they reveal the destination, or the direction of the car, you can guess it yourself. β
The young employee frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "No, no...... Finish? β
In his eyes, he saw Luke pull out a roll of American knives again, and his words stopped suddenly.
His eyes flickered for a moment, and the young employee looked left and right and lowered his voice: "It's a high-end Mercedes-Benz sports car, and the on-board system on it has a positioning function, and our company can receive the data ...... of the on-board system."
Luke laughed and threw the knife in his hand.
The young employee's face was full of nervousness and surprise before he caught it, only to see Luke pull out a roll of American knives again: "Can I check the location of this car?" β
The young employee frowned: "That requires a special computer in the manager's office, without a password, you can't get into that system." β
Luke smiled: "Then take me to your manager, as long as you can keep him away for five minutes, the money is yours." β
The young employee gritted his teeth and waved, "Let's go." I'd say you're looking for a luxury car to rent and you're going to let the manager go halfway through......"
Luke nodded in satisfaction and followed.
In less than half an hour, Luke, accompanied by a smiling manager, walked out.
The manager also said repeatedly: "Mr. Sam, I wish you a pleasant trip!" If you have any questions, you can call me. β
Luke snorted: "Let this young man accompany me to pick up the car, he has a very good attitude." β
Of course, the manager has no opinion, and decisively shakes the pot, and his heart is happy.
When he walked back to the office, he still muttered: "These rich boys, don't you have nowhere to spend your money?" Just come to play for a few days and rent such a luxurious car, so don't you have to hire a driver yourself? β
