Chapter 176: Press Conference

Taipei Police Station.

A hall was bustling with people, both yellow-skinned and white-skinned, with signs around their necks with the names of the media. There were also many photojournalists in vests crowded into the aisles between the seats, and the long guns and short guns in their hands were all aimed at the rostrum.

On the rostrum, the chief of the Taipei Police Station, whose hair is gray and his eyes are somewhat cloudy, sits on the left and right.

Seeing the crowd in the audience, the director was also a little panicked, leaned sideways to the deputy director in charge of the criminal team and asked, "Is there any progress now?" The Americans are urging fiercely. ”

"It's being investigated, and it's very difficult, so I applied to borrow someone from the United States to participate in the investigation, just to gag them at that time." The deputy director has always wanted to close the case with natural death, but as soon as Lorenzo's case came out, under the gaze and pressure of many parties, he had to think of another way.

The director's eyes flashed with a hint of shrewdness, and he said in a low voice: "You have a good idea. But you have to let your subordinates pay attention, this FBI agent is just a cover, don't let him go too deep, in case something comes out, everyone will not look good. ”

"I know."

After receiving the assurance, the director sat up straight and nodded to the chief of staff who was maintaining order on the side.

The chief of staff hurriedly pressed his hands down on the media, signaled silence and announced the official start of the press conference.

"Hello to all media friends. The main purpose of today's press conference is to report on the progress of the murder of Father Lorenzo, which is of concern to everyone. The director approached the microphone in front of him, cleared his throat and said slowly, "After this case happened, this bureau attached great importance to it and set up a special team with experienced criminal detectives. After two days of preliminary investigation, we have reason to suspect that there is a certain connection between this case and the murder of the chairman of Taifeng Group and the murder of the woman Qiu Miaofang. This is a case of serial murder. ”

Serial Murder!

The media reporters in the audience were in an uproar.

Each mixed media has its own channels, not to mention listening to all directions, but the real-time dynamics of some key events still need to be grasped at all times.

According to their previous information in the police station, weren't the other two murders preliminarily investigated and resulted in deaths of natural causes?

There hasn't been a serial murder case in Taipei for many years!

Thinking of this, the reporters were excited, and they all wanted to rush to ask questions, and some of them were anxious to stand up and raise their hands high.

The director frowned slightly, but he still had a smile on his face, and patiently waited for the noisy voice to subside a little before he continued: "In view of the fact that this case has caused many false rumors before, it has seriously caused unrest in the hearts of the society. The Taipei police uphold the principle of rational handling of cases, and with the help of the American Institute in Taiwan, the FBI has agreed to assign a senior detective with rich experience in serial homicide cases to Taiwan to help solve the case. ”

This news is only known to a small number of people in the police department, and it has not yet been widely spread, so it has caused a stirring in the audience.

At the back of the crowd, Zhou Bowen was pinching a piece of dried meat and chewing it with relish, and said in a low voice to Qi Zihuan beside him: "This time, you must have some sense of proportion in your heart to let you accompany this new Yankee with Huotu." Some basic information of the case must be revealed to him, but what should not be touched by him cannot be touched. ”

"Okay, I know." Qi Zihuan looked at the stage with interest and agreed casually.

The director, who seemed to be muddy, but was actually very shrewd, was also forced to sweat a little by the enthusiasm of the media.

"Don't take it seriously, that's the one who told me." Li Bowen shook his chin lightly, and pointed at the deputy director on the stage with a small range of movements, "Huotu, this person, sometimes there are some axes, although he is a senior, but you can't listen to his ...... all"

After a pause in the middle of his words, Qi Zihuan turned his head and found that it was Huang Huotu who was hurrying over.

Li Bowen quietly winked at Qi Zihuan, and then joked at Huang Huotu: "Huotu, remember to go to Taipei Airport at eight o'clock tonight to pick up that Yankee, you can't be as late as you are now." After receiving it, I will take them to eat and then send them to the hotel......"

In the middle of the session, a female reporter who was called by the director of the office stood up and asked quickly: "May I ask if there is the involvement of political forces in this case as rumored?" There is also the question of whether this FBI agent has jurisdiction over the case in Taiwan? ”

This question is very sharp, but several high-level police officers on the stage should have a plan for a long time.

The deputy director in charge of criminal affairs leaned closer to the microphone and said calmly: "Friends from the media, let me explain this question, this FBI agent does not have the power to be equipped with a gun, arrest and interrogate in Taiwan, but only uses the rich experience he brings to provide us with corresponding technical support for handling cases, so there is no obstruction of the right to judicial investigation." ”

"Excuse me, there are folk rumors that the victim's body was painted with a charm, is it someone who is harming someone?" A male reporter asked loudly before he could be named.

The deputy director was a little depressed, but he felt the burning eyes from the audience, and knew that this problem must be unavoidable, so he pursed his lips and explained: "This is nonsense, there is no such thing at all, and please don't believe or spread rumors." Moreover, this time, we have invited American experts to come over to assist in the investigation, and it is precisely in the hope of breaking through the current stalemate in a scientific way. ”

……

After the meal, it was just getting dark, and it was raining a lot.

"Xiao Qi, thank you for helping me take care of Meimeiha in the hospital last time, she is a good child, after that incident...... Psychologically traumatized, he refused to speak. Huang Huotu drove his broken car and took the initiative to talk to Qi Zihuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

Qi Zihuan knew that "that incident" referred to his brother-in-law's hijacking of Meimei, and it was not a secret that this incident happened at the police station.

"You're polite, Meimei is very cute, she didn't move after you left, and she has been quietly waiting for you to come back."

Huang Huotu sighed and said, "Alas, the doctor said that if she wants to recover as soon as possible, she must be given a stable family environment, so I decided to move back home to live better...... Sleeping in the office all day also makes you laugh......"

Indeed, the role of the father is indispensable in the growth of a child. What's more, it's the case of Meimei. ”

"Well, that's what I thought too. Let's stop by my house first, I will send Meimei's medicine first, there happened to be a medicine in the hospital that day, and I went to pick up the medicine at today's press conference. ”

Huang Huotu may have made up his mind to return to the family, and the feeling of mourning on his body has faded.

Until I drove into the alley in front of my house, a Mercedes Benz blocked the road in front of me.

The two people in the car were happily talking about something.

The main driver is a young man, and the co-pilot is Grandview.
