Charles's New World Company is located on Rodeo Avenue in the center of Beverly Hills, below which is a famous clothing brand in the world represented by Charles, and the upstairs is the place where the models usually take pictures and train. Of course, Charles's own office is upstairs.

There was no need to ask, and when the two cars pulled up to the parking lot, Charles's extended Cadillac was parked and shining.

As a person from the FBI, Wang Lei smiled slightly and watched Nathan and Coleman outflank one from the front door and the other by the elevator in the parking lot. After venting her emotions last night, Wang Shui'er is in a much better mood today and has recovered her nature of catching narrow and funny people.

Dafang took Wang Lei's arm: "Let's go, let's go up from the elevator too." Wang Shui'er, who has unloaded some burdens, has taken the initiative a lot, in the past, Wang Lei was in charge of how to arrange, and Yang Qian was in charge when Wang Lei was not there.

Wang Shui'er, who took over the command, is not walking slowly, and the "Duoduo, Duoduo" of high-heeled shoes has already made the parking lot begin to echo, and Wang Lei has to speed up the pace to keep up with her.

The decoration on the second floor is very artistic, very international, very simple to an extreme, which makes people give birth to an alternative, special sense of grace and luxury.

Julie stopped a model who was hurriedly passing by, and the pretty, amorous model pointed to the end of the second floor that had been opened into a huge space: "Charles is there, and someone was looking for him just now." ”

The three of them looked around like curious babies as they walked towards Charles's office. As soon as I got to the door, I heard Coleman's roar inside: "Don't threaten me with a lawyer, Charles, if you don't tell Katie's whereabouts, I have a way to deal with you." Do you want me to call someone from the Inspection Department of the Revenue Bureau to check your taxes? ”

The three people who pushed the door in happened to see Charles's drastic face. Tax audit? This is Charles's life, not to mention, he has to go to Termino Prison for ten or eight years.

No longer clamoring for a lawyer, no longer yelling for a lawsuit against Kaulman, Charles, who is in his 40s, extremely emaciated, and obviously has too much nightlife, spreads his hands on the table: "I invited Katie to the Golden Palace Bar last Sunday night. I'm familiar with her, right? ”

Charles's mouth is very familiar, and everyone knows what it means, especially when Charles deliberately sticks out his tongue and reminisces about the movement of his lips, which makes Wang Shui'er's chivalrous heart rise: "Don't you have a few stinky money, hum, Wang Lei, let's beat him!" ”

Hit him? Wang Lei thought, this is the United States, this is Los Angeles, my eldest lady. It's easy to beat him up without being sure, and then waiting for the police to come to the door, which is something that Coleman can't do. By the way, there is also a lawyer's letter waiting, which will compensate a large amount of money.

Coleman glanced at Nathan, who was very cooperative and started calling, and also used the hands-free function: "Hello, IRS." ”

IRS, IRS, Charles almost flew up, he pounced, his body pressed the phone, and Nathan let him take it too, just looking at him with a smile.

The FBI's mobile phone is still afraid that you won't be able to snatch it, Charles is so frightened that he almost doesn't know which one is the button to stop the call, and the pleasant female voice on the other side of the phone continues: "Hello, if you have anything to report, don't worry, the IRS will provide you with a guarantee of personal safety......"

Nathan reached out and tapped the screen, and the call snapped to a halt. Charles let out a long breath, he was not afraid of the police, he was not afraid of the FBI, he was afraid of the IRS coming to his door.

"After Katie and I went in that night, we drank for a while, and she left alone around 3 a.m., and I haven't seen her for a few days." Charles was a lot more honest.

"Who's Molly?" Wang Lei suddenly asked, and when asking questions, Wang Lei's eyes used to narrowing very small, which was a habit he had developed in the serious crime team, so that any changes in the suspect's expression could be clearly observed.

Charles was stunned, just stunned: "Molly, oh, I remember, that girl with Katie that night, right?" ”

Molly, according to Charles, was the first time he had met and met him last Sunday night, and since then, Charles has seen Molly standing in the long line outside the door every night when he goes to the Golden Palace for a drink, but he has never called her again.

Charles described Molly's appearance, blonde hair, pointed chin, height of about 160 cm, plump, especially big breasts. This is also what impresses Charles the most, or what brings Charles great joy.

After questioning Charles, everyone went down to the parking lot from the elevator, and Julie said something in the elevator that made Coleman nervous: "Could it be that Katie was kidnapped on the way home after coming out of the Golden Palace Bar?" ”

Everyone has thought so, and Wang Lei has also considered this issue before. Perhaps, this is the fundamental reason why Katie disappeared so completely.

However, Coleman felt that something was wrong, because Katie's mother, who was also Coleman's sister, had never received a ransom call.

Xiaolou, the pre-case analysis board, Wang Lei drew another branch - at 3 o'clock in the morning on Monday, Katie left the bar. Several huge question marks hit in the back, and Coleman began to get scared.

Not all kidnappings are for ransom, half are because . Sex. Crime, and some just to experience the thrill and pleasure of killing.

Cowman looked at Wang Lei, Wang Lei rubbed his beard: "Cowman, no matter what happens, you have to be a little mentally prepared." So, Nathan, you go and check all the funeral homes and hospitals in Los Angeles right away to see if there is a deceased named Katie who was brought to the hospital in the early hours of Monday morning. ”

Julie assists Nathan, Yang Qian also goes to help, and Wang Shuier thoughtfully brings coffee to Coleman and comforts him to sit down. It was as if his spine had been removed, and he was weak. He wondered what he was going to tell his sister if Katie had been killed.

Wang Lei will not persuade, this may be a problem that Coleman has to face, and the comfort in this case, Wang Lei has always thought that he is giving the victim's family an illusory hope and blowing a soap bubble for them.

When hope turns into disappointment, when the soap bubble bursts, the victim's family will be hurt more heavily, and the pain will be multiplied. From pain to numbness.

Wang Lei lit a cigarette, walked to the window, and thought carefully. Judging from the clues obtained so far, perhaps Julie's inadvertent guess got to the point. In a metropolis like Los Angeles, it is all too common for a young girl to go missing.

Many murderers will also know how to ensure their own safety on the premise of finding a target, and the door of the Golden Palace Bar is undoubtedly a good place.

At 3 o'clock in the morning, there was no taxi, what kind of private car did she have, Katie came out alone, and Charles would not let the car take her. Drunk, she would be the best target for all foragers.

"Coleman, you should contact the LAPD right away and ask if there is a police call near the Golden Palace bar on Monday morning, and if there is a way to find out who they detained on Sunday night and Monday morning?" Wang Shui'er glared at Wang Lei, didn't she see that Coleman was in a trance now, and asked him to work?

It is because Coleman is already in a trance, Wang Lei has to give him one more thing, and the emotions of grief and sadness will be alleviated when he is engrossed in work, which is Wang Lei's personal experience.

Coleman knew Wang Lei's kindness, nodded gratefully to Wang Lei, and Coleman called directly to find the ultimate boss of the Los Angeles Police Department, Climb.

As chairman of the Los Angeles Board of Chiefs, Climbrek is also the commissioner in charge of the police department, and he met Coleman during his dealings with the FBI.

The two of them often communicate with each other, and the two of them will have a big quarrel on business, and the private friendship is still very good.

Perhaps it was the heaviness of Coleman's words, or perhaps there was something urgent to deal with on his side, but Climbrek didn't joke about him as usual, but just promised to come down, and hung up the phone after saying that he would call Coleman back in an hour.

An hour later, Ptrick called on time, and he asked all the 4 substations in 21 districts, the Marine Police and the Air Police, and even their special units, the Detective Bureau and the Special Operations Substation, and he didn't receive any calls related to Katie.

Nathan, Yang Qian, and Julie came from next door after the phone call, and no funeral home had taken Katie's body, and no hospital in Omi had accepted Katie.

This news of not knowing whether the road is good or bad makes everyone suddenly feel at a loss of direction. The room was actually cold, because no one knew what to say and what to say?

The focus of attention finally converged on Wang Lei, and after groaning and thinking for a long time, Wang Lei spoke: "It's a good thing that no body was found, which shows that even if Katie was kidnapped, the murderer didn't kill her for the time being." ”

"Nathan, stop!" Wang Lei raised his hand to stop Nathan's mouth from opening, he knew that Nathan would definitely ask, maybe the murderer killed Katie, abandoned the body in an abandoned place or a remote valley, etc.

Why bother striking Coleman's already fragile soul, a possibility Coleman himself would have thought of, although, perhaps, this is the reality. Let Coleman guess for himself the best and most acceptable.

The hospital did not find Katie, and Wang Lei also thought it was a good thing, indicating that Katie was not injured because she was robbed and beaten.

"So, what we must accomplish today is that we must find Molly." Wang Lei once again assigned Nathan and Julie a thing, and asked them to go through the FBI's database and try to find Molly's photo and address.

Without a social security number, no fingerprints, and no facial recognition, even the FBI's database is quite difficult to find. After 5 hours of searching and eliminating them one by one, there were three girls who met Charles's description of Molly's characteristics.

Wang Lei asked them to print out all the photos of the three girls, and each of them carried a copy in their pockets, because they were worried about a conflict with Jack, Wang Lei asked Nathan trio to take Wang Shui'er to the Golden Palace Bar in advance to start looking for Molly.
