NYPD morgue.

Cassel looked at Chen Zhong and Alexis, who were examining the corpses, and said to Beckett and Esposito next to them: "I'm worried about Alexis, she can eat burgers next to the corpses with Chen Zhong now." I don't quite understand why she thinks this kind of work is cool. ”

Beckett pointed to Chen Zhong, who was working hard, and said to Cassel: "Maybe Alexis doesn't like to work here, but to people who like to work here?" ”

Esposito patted Cassel on the shoulder and teased him, "Hey, brother, be careful, Alexis has grown up and doesn't need your guardian anymore." ”

Seeing that Chen Zhong and Alexis had finished checking, Cassel walked over with a black face and the two of them.

Chen Zhong pointed to the clothes worn by the deceased and said: "The deceased had symptoms of lack of water due to vomiting, and he sweated profusely before he died, which made his clothes salted. ”

Chen Zhong opened the eyelids of the deceased and asked Alexis, "What does it mean that his eyeballs have changed to the color of sunrise?" ”

Alex thought for a moment and said, "It should be the tumor blocking the bile ducts, and he has pancreatic cancer." Right? ”

"Exactly, he's having a cancer attack, so this person isn't murderous." Chen Zhong and Beckett said.

Chen Zhong led everyone to another corpse and said, "After my examination, the wound of this corpse is a little weird. ”

Esposito opened the book and introduced the situation of the corpse, "The deceased is Jack. Conan, a member of the Irish gang West Side, was killed in his home for crimes such as malicious wounding, arson, and armed assault. ”

Cassel asked suspiciously: "This is an ordinary gangster vendetta case, what's so special?" ”

Chen Zhong looked at Beckett, hesitated a little, thought about it for a while and said: "The deceased has multiple knife wounds, and according to the angle of the wounds, I deduce that the murderer is probably more than one meter eight tall. Although there were multiple wounds on the deceased's body, only one wound was fatal, and the others were all disguised by the others...... With the same technique and the same wounds, the murderer in this case and several cases ten years ago should be the same person. ”

Seeing that Beckett was a little emotional, Kassel hurriedly took her hand and asked Chen Chong, "Are you sure it's the same murderer?" ”

Chen Zhong took out a fake dagger and showed it to everyone, "I'm sure that the murderer of Jack is the same person who killed Beckett's mother ten years ago, and I also used the wounds on the deceased Jack's body to reconstruct a 3D version of the murder weapon." ”

Esposito took the dagger, looked at it carefully, and said: "I saw this kind of knife when I was in the army, and this knife was the dagger used by the special forces of the first Gulf War. ”

Cassel whispered to Beckett, "Are you alright?" You don't have to worry, these friends of us will definitely help you catch your mother's murderer. ”

Beckett lowered his head and did not speak, tears kept falling to the ground, Cassel took out a tissue and tried to hand it to her, Beckett suddenly ran out of the morgue.

……

In the evening, everyone gathers in the living room of a luxury apartment in Kassel.

Ryan introduced the latest investigation, "I talked to Rourke, the boss of the West Side Gang, and according to him, the West Side Gang never touched drugs and did not need others to sell drugs on their own territory. Because recently some people have come to their territory to sell drugs, Rourke sent Jack. Conan went to clean up those drug dealers, but he didn't expect to be cleaned up by the other party. ”

After Ryan's introduction, Esposito said, "I found Jack's girlfriend Molly, and Jack gave her a key to a locker before he died, and we found a lot of them in the locker. Lo. Because of the videotapes, these tapes were shipped to New York by a Hong Kong company, and their boss was named Johnny. Feng, but this guy is very tight-mouthed, and he can't ask anything useful. ”

Cassel concluded: "It seems that our main goal now is to pry Johnny open. Feng's mouth should be like a way for him to tell the truth. ”

Zizi~ The doorbell rang, and Kassel opened the door to see that it was Beckett standing outside.

Kassel said to Beckett, "You know that I will do everything for you, and if you feel that you are not ready, we can do nothing." ”

"Thank you Cassel, but I'd like to get to the bottom of this."

Beckett walked into the apartment and felt a little embarrassed to see that his friends were busy for her.

Chen Zhong comforted Beckett and said: "Kate, in my eyes, you have always been a strong detective, you must know that the truth will not hurt you, and I believe that your mother will also stand by your side." ”

After everyone comforted Beckett, they talked about the progress of the case, and Beckett also knew that the difficulty now was to get Johnny to tell the truth of the matter.

Faced with such a cowardly criminal, Beckett, who has a lot of experience, immediately thought of a way to target him.

……

In the New York Police Department's incarceration cell, Beckett said to Johnny in custody: "I'm sorry Mr. Johnny, because we made a mistake and forgot to read the Miranda Agreement to you, now you can go." ”

Johnny hurriedly shouted, "No, I'm sure you read my rights, wait, I don't want to go out." ”

Cassel said to Johnny, "Now we don't need to imprison you, you're free." ”

Johnny said in horror, "You can't do this, if I go out, he'll think I'm cooperating with your cops, and I'll not live tomorrow." ”

Beckett walked up to him and said, "Yes, I know that, or you tell me who you are working for, and I will protect you." ”

"Dick. Conan, I work for his drug trafficking organization. Johnny said decadently.

"You're talking about Jack. Conan's brother Dick. Conan? Beckett was a little surprised to hear his name.

Johnny confirmed, "Yes, Dick's drug cartel has a stupid subordinate who sells drugs in the West Side Gang, only to be found out by Jack that his brother is a drug dealer. Jack threatens Dick to stop or tell the FBI about him, so Dick finds the professional killer Rathborne and kills his brother. ”

Cassel said in surprise: "I didn't expect this to be a massacre between brothers." ”

Beckett said to Esposito and Ryan, "Search Dick. Conan's company and home, and brought him back. ”

……

Seeing the evidence in front of him, Dick could only admit that his younger brother Jack was killed by a professional killer he found.

The clever Jack soon finds a lifesaver, and he discovers that Beckett is desperate to find the killer Rathborn.

Jack calmly made his own conditions, if he wanted to find the killer Rathborn, then he needed complete immunity.

Beckett consulted with Commissioner Montgomery for a while, and agreed to Jack's request that as long as he cooperated with the police department in apprehending Rathborne, he would be given complete immunity and he would be acquitted.

Because the murderer was a former special forces soldier with years of training, the police department sent a large number of police forces and special operations teams to wait at the junction site.

When the appointed time came, a man about 1.8 meters tall and wearing a trench coat appeared in the field of vision, and when he approached Jack, his hand reached into the inside of the trench coat.

Beckett and the special operators, who had been lying in ambush for a long time, rushed out to restrain the man, only to find that what he was about to take out of his trench coat was a mobile phone, and this person was just a passerby.

Such a big move must have alarmed Rathborn, who neither caught the murderer of many people, but also let go of Dick, the head of the drug dealer. Conan, everyone was disappointed.

In the evening, Dick. Conan poured a glass of wine in his home, and while drinking the wine, he thought about playing those stupid cops during the day, and walked into the bedroom comfortably.

A needle of anesthetic in the void stabbed him in the neck, Dick fell on the carpet, and Chen Zhong walked out of the darkness.
