Chapter 50: Clues
"Hmm!" Lisbon nodded lightly and said, "Beckett, can you give me a copy of the information about the victims, I always feel that something is not quite right." β
"Okay, no problem!" Beckett readily agreed, but then she said a little apologetically: "But we don't have many clues about the identity of the victim, only one of his driver's licenses, and further investigation is needed." β
"It's okay, a driver's license is enough!" Lisbon nodded indifferently, glanced at the room, and said, "Then you guys are busy first, I won't bother, and if you find anything in the future, keep in touch at any time." β
"Alright, goodbye Lisbon agent." Beckett asked Esposito to send Lisbon down, and she herself held her chin and looked down in thought.
"Why, Beckett, do you think there is any connection between these two cases?" When Esposito returned, he looked at Beckett and said in a deep voice.
"Aren't you the same?" Beckett looked up, glanced at Esposito, and said, "Why else would you have brought her here?" β
"Hey, hey!" Esposito smiled smugly and said, "After all, the two cases occurred in close proximity, and the time also has the meaning of continuity, it is difficult not to think about it. β
"yes!" Beckett's eyes looked at the safe on the side, with thought in her eyes, she said in a deep voice: "The front foot over there has just been broken in, and a batch of jewels has been robbed, and the back foot here is about to be burglarized, if the two cases involve the same piece of jewelry, then all this can be explained." β
"That's right." Esposito nodded and said, "Our victim didn't come home until about two o'clock in the middle of the night, and when he was robbed in the museum in such a suit, he went out for a run, which can't help but be suspicious. β
"Yes, it's not just us who can think of this, the Lisbon agent just now didn't think of this, that's why I came here with you to have a look." Beckett sighed slightly, everyone is a smart person, and the case has not been handled for a year or two, and the connection between this can be figured out as long as you think about it, but the problem is that now everyone has no evidence, and there is no evidence to link the two cases together, which is why the Lisbon agent left directly after a little look.
Beckett turned to look at Esposito, and said in a deep voice: "We must hurry up and confirm the identity of the victim, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to have any clues on the thief's side, we didn't find any fingerprints left by him at the scene, and now all we can count on is the few drops of blood on the ground, if it belongs to the thief, we can still check it, but if he belongs to the victim, then the thief has no hope at all." β
"Hmm!" Esposito nodded slightly, he knew that what Beckett said was right, this case was probably difficult to investigate, he said with a serious smile: "Beckett, I'm going back to investigate the relevant information of the victim." Alright, Renee, let's go back together, maybe I'll have to count on some clues from you! β
"Let's go, then." Renee gave Esposito an angry look, said hello to Becket, and left.
The forensic staff in the room had done their job and left, leaving only two patrolmen at the door, and Beckett was alone in the room, feeling that something was wrong in the room.
If her reasoning was correct, the owner of the house was the suspect in the museum case, then there could be no such thing as a hidden place in which he had carefully arranged.
Put yourself in your shoes, change it to yourself, do such a shocking case, and after returning here, the first thing is to hide your gains.
Thinking of this, Beckett's eyes fell on the safe on the side, the forensic staff had told her before, this is a high-level safe, in addition to the complex password system, there is also a fingerprint verification program.
This thief is also a powerful person, such a high-level safe was opened in such a short time, and there are not many people in the whole of Los Angeles who can do this!
Thinking of this, Beckett's heart couldn't help but move slightly, this aspect should be investigated properly.
After scanning the entire living room, Beckett walked into the bedroom, but she didn't expect to find anything, her colleagues in the forensic department had searched the room carefully, and none of their professionals found anything, and Beckett didn't expect to find anything special, she was just a lucky luck in her own heart.
The results were disappointing, and within the bedroom and living room, Beckett searched for a long time and found nothing.
Just as Beckett was about to continue the search, Kevin walked in from the outside, found Beckett, beckoned to her, and said in a deep voice, "Hey, Beckett, something has been discovered." β
"Oh!" Beckett put down what he was holding and walked out with Kevin, while asking, "What did you find?" β
Kevin walked into the elevator and said to Beckett: "We found two warheads downstairs, which are 44 caliber warheads, which should belong to the Desert Eagle in the victim's hand." β
While speaking, Beckett had already followed Kevin to the elevator downstairs, and the bullet Kevin was talking about was actually embedded in the second-story faΓ§ade of another apartment building fifty meters away, which was facing the window of the apartment building where the victim was.
Beckett shook his head slightly, it was really embarrassing for Kevin that they were able to find such an extremely hidden place.
Looking at the hole on the second floor, Beckett frowned, looked at Kevin with some puzzlement, and said: "In other words, the victim once shot outside the window, but why did he shoot at the window, if he broke the glass, the glass residue should be outside?" β
As more and more discoveries were made, Beckett felt that the whole case was in a fog.
"That's because there's a third person there." Kevin looked at Beckett, smiled very proudly, and said, "This is the second discovery I want to talk about. Beckett, you know, there are surveillance cameras installed on the outside of several apartment buildings, and we pulled up the footage and found something very interesting. You come with me. β
With that, Kevin Ryan took Beckett to the community's monitoring room, he had been here before, and adjusted the picture. After bringing Beckett in this time, he directly asked the security guards of the community to play the surveillance video.
I saw that on the big screen, the night was filled with endless mist, and as time progressed, a black figure crossed the corner of the surveillance video.
"Yes, that's it, back off, zoom in!" Kevin pointed to the black shadow and asked the security guard to operate the video carefully, and little by little it regressed to the picture where the black shadow appeared, and then zoomed in again.
Even if the pixel of the cell surveillance video is not low, it is really limited that a black shadow in the mist can be placed clearly.
"What's that, a pair of wings?" Seeing the black shadow of the black figure's outstretched arms hooked together, Beckett couldn't help but be shocked.
"It's not wings, it's just a gliding suit." Kevin couldn't help but laugh as he stood aside, he was also startled at first, but after careful identification, he gradually confirmed that it was a gliding suit. He pointed to the protruding mass under the black figure in the video, and said to Beckett: "Beckett, look here, does this look like a figure, but is it shrunk in the arms of another figure?" β
