Chapter 401 Sunbathing by the way, a broken pickup truck passing by (3 more)
Selena pulled out her phone and called forensics.
Luke stepped forward alone, not on board, but just went around it to check the situation.
"There's no visible blood on the boat, but look here." He mouthed Selena Nunu after the call.
Selena looked at the hull of the boat, and there was a large depression in the side of the bow.
"Something slammed into the ship?" She asked.
Luke nodded: "There is no blood in the boat, and there are no obvious marks, and the probability of a tear inside is very low." Wait, the forensics department will be here in an hour. ”
Selena looked up at the sky, then looked down at her watch: "It's over, our seafood lunch." ”
Luke also remembered this, and said helplessly: "I can only cancel the noon reservation." ”
Selena could only nod her head and began to call the restaurant.
Luke said hello and trotted all the way back to Sveck's villa, driving his car not far from the boat.
When the car arrived, he smiled and said, "Although there is no seafood lunch, you can still have sunbathing or something." And this, either? ”
He said and threw it over.
Selena took it in one hand, opened it and took a sip, burping contentedly: "Honey, you are so wise. ”
Luke smiled but didn't say a word.
Together, the two of them pulled out folding chairs, sun umbrellas, and large towels from the trunk of their cars and laid them out on a flat reef next to them.
Selena slipped into the car and changed into a bikini, took out a food box with her other hand, ran back and lay down, and then exhaled comfortably: "Ah, it's good to be busy." ”
Luke opened the food box and took out a piece of braised beef from it and threw it into his mouth: "Kill two birds with one stone, otherwise it's useless to wait here." ”
That's the frustration of a detective's job.
Now that they had discovered the boat, the two of them could not just walk away, they had to wait for the forensic to come and take over.
If it's in the city, you can still find a place to rest during the time before the forensic personnel arrive.
In this wilderness, you have to rely on yourself to find a way to get through it.
Fortunately, Luke and the others are now ready to go out, and there is no shortage of food and water in the car.
Although it is not exaggerated by a special outing, it can also make the process of waiting for the two a little more comfortable.
Selena was sunbathing with her eyes closed, and listening to the study materials with a headset in her ears.
Luke has put together a lot of expertise for her, from combat to survival, from the city to the field.
She is okay now, just listen to the radio, and listen to it a little more comfortably than just reading the text.
Luke didn't sunbathe much, just casually applied sunscreen to Selena's back, and drank tea by himself to read the information.
However, the information he read was not so serious, and it was basically information related to the forces of the dark world in Los Angeles.
Recently, the frequency of his clean-up operations has been deliberately controlled by him, probably keeping it like one vote every five to seven days, so as to avoid being too "industrious" and have a significant impact on his mood.
Even so, in the past month or so, Luke has cleared out nearly ten gang dens.
For the entire Los Angeles gang forces, this number is a fraction of a fraction, but what he can't resist is the backbone of the gang that he cleaned up, and these middle-level gangs that have been cleaned up have dozens or hundreds of low-level personnel under their hands.
After he eliminated these middle strata, hundreds of the bottom thugs lost their leaders.
Suddenly losing their direct boss, these little thugs began to get restless.
Some want to take the position of the boss themselves, some want to defect to other forces, and some want to fish in troubled waters to get some benefits.
So, these gangs in Los Angeles have been a bit of a chicken dog lately.
Luke was already thinking about whether to clean up the low-level gangsters again.
Compared with the dead backbone, these low-level gangsters are a bit unscrupulous, because most of them have not been educated by the cruel reality, and when they find the opportunity, they think that they are the second in the world and want to do a great career.
Luke pondered that if thirty or fifty more of the dancing fellows died, the rest of the people would be able to understand something.
If you don't have a brain, you'll be sensible.
As for bringing more crime to Los Angeles, he wouldn't think so.
Organized crime is even more dangerous.
Many of the cases in which gangs are involved are sustained and large-scale acts, such as trafficking in women, human beings and even organs, or smuggling arms and illicit drugs.
The gangsters robbed and injured people on the streets, but they were not as efficient as the assembly line operations of the gang.
As he thought, he typed red √ after some of the names in his notebook.
If nothing else, after a while these names will turn into a red ×.
Suddenly, the sound of an engine could be heard in the distance.
Luke looked sideways and saw a beat-up pickup truck driving past a nearby wasteland, heading farther away.
He was speechless: in this wilderness, there are still people who come to the outing like them?
After a while, the Forensics Section finally arrived.
Seeing Selena who just waved to them on the side, and then continued to bask in the sun, the two forensic officers were full of envy: "O, you guys are so witty, you actually prepared these things in advance." ”
No one will be serious about how to go to work, everyone usually goes to work very boring, every day in front of corpses and bloodstains, there are pleasing beauties to look at, idiots will speak nonsense.
Luke laughed and pointed to the boat over there: "If you're done with your work and want to enjoy it, I can borrow you two yoga mats, and sunscreen too." Of course, you will have to bring your own clothes and towels. ”
Both forensics officers were quite young, both were white males no more than thirty years old, and their personalities were quite lively.
They looked at each other and smiled bitterly: "Where did we get the time to sunbathe?" There's still a bunch of analysis and reports to do when I go back. ”
Luke shrugged: "Then I can't help, I'm not the head of the forensic department, so I can't approve fake notes." ”
The three of them laughed a few words and got to work.
The work of the forensic staff is not particularly large.
There weren't many signs on the boat, except for the depression where it had been hit, and the pool of dried blood.
When the forensic staff was almost finished and ready to leave, the broken pickup truck that had been driving past drove back again.
Standing on the reef, Luke casually glanced at it, only to find that a small boat was being towed behind the broken pickup.
He was stunned.
The boat, like the one they inspected, had a green edge on a white background, and it also had the name of the restaurant, Greer.
Looking at the boat from afar, Luke noticed that the bow of the boat seemed to be missing.
