Chapter 56: Investigating Shaun

At the Edward Street coffee shop, Penny and Miller listened to the recording again and made sure that what they now had was the same.

Sheeney had already left, and now the two of them were about to go to St. Barnia's Hospital to see if that Shaun was dead or alive.

If you're dead and you need an autopsy, if you're alive and can still talk, then hurry up and ask for something to come out. Today's work is quite fulfilling.

If you can leave work on time, that's the best.

"Let's go!"

The two walked out of the coffee shop, and Miller drove towards St. Barnia's Hospital.

The speed of the car is not fast, at this point in time, the road is always blocked, yesterday's rainstorm and wind and lightning strikes, some trees fell to the side, and there is no municipal government to clean up.

There was still standing water in the middle of some roads, and the car would splash around when it drove fast, and the St. Barnia Hospital was not far away, and the two were not in a hurry, Penny looked at the records in her notebook.

"Sheenie shouldn't have anything to do with this, you say?" Miller said he had analysed it from what he had.

Perhaps she saw something and didn't realize the problem, which means that she was doing something very hidden. Of course, there may be no problem. Penny added.

Miller's brows furrowed into ugly shapes, he always thought about things like this, and after a while, he probably thought of something: "To do the most hidden, you can directly build a network of couriers, as long as these people go to various stores to apply, and then the couriers can carry things themselves." ”

Penny pondered his words for a moment, as if they were also a train of thought, but there was a small question: "Then why do you want to apply?" Isn't that how it works? ”

"It's a cover method, and people will say that this is a food delivery person. In addition, commercially speaking, food delivery itself is a source of income, and if there is no dark web business, there can be income on the surface, what do you say? ”

Penny listened to Miller's words, and quickly thought of those things that were looking for part-time jobs to do tasks online, and nodded thoughtfully: "This is another possibility, the store has nothing to do with this matter, and the courier does things according to the situation?" What do you think he will do? ”

Miller thought for a moment: "For example, I'm a food delivery person on the surface, but I actually have a part-time job as a dark web courier. Well, when I get an order from the dark web, I place an order for my store at the same time, so that I have a reason to make the delivery. ”

"What if the boss doesn't let you deliver it?"

"You can exchange with people, for example, here I am more familiar with such reasons, do you think colleagues will change? There is also a drop by, such as..."

Before he could finish speaking, Miller's cell phone rang.

"It's St. Regis, the technical controller." Miller spoke, picked up the phone and listened.

Hanging up, he said to Penny, "He got a copy." ”

"What?"

"A customer ordered pizza from Midley Street and ordered it online." Miller looked out the window, noticing the movement of the car in front.

Penny frowned, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Look here, the Italian pizza shop. Look at this again, Midley Street. What do you think of? ”

"It's a little weird, but no one says people on Midley Street can't order Italian pizza!" Penny thought about the distance, it was indeed more than five kilometers, and it was said that there were shops on every street of this pizza thing.

People of good taste may go for a little farther away just to get a special feeling, but how many people have taste on Midley Street?

Miller spoke again: "Mono. Philip, twice robbed. If such a person orders a pizza, someone will send it to him? ”

"Maybe you don't know?" Penny muttered, this is also a possibility, the law does not stipulate who should be given to whom it should not be given, it all depends on the merchant himself, of course, the merchant will not write these out, it is easy to be sued.

In this way, there is a line between Shaun, Midley Street, and takeaway.

"Assuming Sean is the courier of this dark web, who will his upline be? He'd have to have somewhere to pick it up, right? Penny pondered that from time to time outside the window, there were delivery people flying by like cars, and few people stopped them, which was already the norm in the city.

The Internet is getting more and more developed, and there are more and more people who want to take advantage of it, both good and bad, all of which are inflating and terrifying.

Miller tapped the steering wheel lightly: "My guess is that it's usually the Chinese Gang, but it's really unusual for the Chinese Gang to sell things to Midley Street." ”

"If it's just a curiosity, this world is full of wonders."

"Is it okay to fight?" Miller glanced at her, "By the way, you can call those two officers and find out what is going on!" ”

"Okay." Penny took out her phone, clicked on the text message forwarded by Miller, and dialed Billy. Andrew's phone.

The phone rang a few times before it was picked up, and a voice asked, "Which one?" ”

"Billy. Officer Andrew? ”

"I am, who are you?"

"Penny of the FBI's Los Angeles Helm. Agent Hiss. There's a case I'd like to learn more about with you. ”

There was a moment of silence on the other side: "How do I know you're real?" ”

Penny reports Billy's siren to him: "I know yesterday you and Pete. Duwalt's encounter with a lightning strike injured person was about the circumstances of that case. ”

After speaking, she relaxed when she heard the other side, because the siren still has a partner, outsiders may not know, and it is only through the top that it is possible to turn the information around.

"What do you want to know?" Asked from the other side.

"Well, can you tell me about what happened yesterday?"

"Well, okay, you wait a minute, I'll find a quiet place," after a while, a voice from inside came out, "Okay, that's right, yesterday I was on duty with Pete, and it was raining heavily, you know, thunderstorms. ”

"Yes, we've all seen it. So what happened? Penny asked.

Billy seemed to be recalling, and after a while, "When we drove to Doane Street near the Los Angeles River, there was a man standing on the side of the road. He seemed to be about to ride a bicycle without rain gear, and when we approached, we saw a lightning bolt on his head, and then he fell to the ground, less than ten meters away from us. ”

Penny was a little surprised, she didn't expect it to be a lightning strike: "Oh my God, is he dead?" ”

"I didn't move him after I got out of the car, I didn't know what to do, Pete called an ambulance. I checked his bag, it had a social security card in it, it wasn't an illegal immigrant, by the way, he was a food delivery person. ”

"Where's the name?"

"Shaun, that's what it's called. By the way, he's Asian. ”

"And later?"

"The person was taken to St. Bania's hospital, and I was not in charge of the rescue, so I made a phone call to his house, and it seemed like a woman answering the phone, and I told her about it. And then I've got to go on patrol, you know. ”

"So, he's still in the hospital?"

"I don't know about it, I haven't gone to work yet." Billy said from the other side.

"Were there any visible injuries on his body at the time?"

"At the time? Didn't pay attention, maybe not, because it was raining so much, I didn't check it carefully, it was still thundering, Pete said we were all in danger ourselves, so we hid back in the car, Pete said this Faraday cage would protect us. ”

"Faraday's cage?" Petunia strangely heard a word.

"Yes," Billy's smug voice came, "it's a kind of physical cage, no matter how high the current on the outside is, it's fine on the inside." ”

"Oh, thank you so much! I'll get back to you if I have something. Good bye. Penny hung up the phone, she was not interested in physics, if she had any questions, she could go to the Internet to check, she didn't need a half-tone patrol officer to popularize science with herself, and the FBI detective's compulsion still had to be steady.

"Faraday what?" Miller faintly heard the word.

"That's not important, let's go to the hospital now, I should still be in the hospital, I think this guy should know a lot of things."

"Sinearle said he didn't want to go, but Manolio threatened to withhold the money."

"It could also be acting, this is L.A., and everyone is a natural actor."
