The aroma came out of the oven, and Mary sniffed deeply, and was very satisfied with the day. Looking at the clock next to the oven, it would take another 5 minutes, and Mary picked up her own black tea and took a small sip.

The doorbell rang, Mary put down the glass, walked out of the kitchen, and through the glass on the door, Mary saw two men standing outside.

The people outside the door also saw Mary, and one of them took out the police badge: "Hello, I'm David, the chief of the Washington Police Department?" Pofil. ”

Somewhat surprised, Mary asked, "Is there anything you guys have to do?" ”

David dodged a little and let Wang Lei out: "This is Wang Lei, a senior adviser to the FBI, about Lauren, we need your help in some situations." ”

Lauren died, and Mary was sad for a few days in the rest of the courthouse. But the TV news said that the police were investigating, and the FBI came to the door.

With a trace of doubt, Mary let Wang Lei and David into the house, and suddenly, the alarm clock set in the kitchen began to "jingle bell" non-stop, Mary smiled apologetically, and quickly rushed into the kitchen to turn off the power of the oven.

Wang Lei took advantage of Mary's absence and quickly scanned the entire living room. On the wall cabinet on one side of the living room, several picture frames are placed.

One of them is a photo of Mary and Lauren, judging from the face, this photo should have been a long time ago, and the two people in the photo are obviously still young and lively, wearing beautiful dresses, smiling very sweetly.

Mary came out of the kitchen just in time to see Wang Lei staring intently at the photo, she also walked over and stroked the photo frame: "This was taken when we graduated from high school, and it has been decades in a blink of an eye." ”

After remembering for a while, Mary realized that there were still two guests, and smiled embarrassedly: "You say, as long as it can help Lauren's affairs, I know everything." ”

Mary and Lauren met in elementary school, and the relationship between the two has been good, and this close friendship has remained until high school and college, through work and marriage.

Whatever was on her mind, Lauren would confide in Mary about her work, family conflicts, and Pesci's problems.

Hearing Mary say this, Wang Lei glanced at David? Pofil, David is a little embarrassed, because Lauren's death happened in the courthouse, and the murderer also has a clear suspicion, and no one thought to think about this.

In fact, many homicides do occur between familiar people, and family conflicts are also one of the triggers.

Lauren was not as comfortable at home as her husband Mark had suggested, and Mary confirmed that.

"Lauren and Persie have always had conflicts, especially in the last six months, Lauren plans to let Persie move to a nursing home, because she and Mark often quarrel about this." Every time she had a fight with her husband, Lauren would come to Mary to tell her.

After a long time, Mary also completely figured out what was going on.

Because Mark had a medical accident, his salary is much lower now than before. The income has decreased, and many hidden contradictions in the family have also surfaced.

Percy is old and has to be taken care of by Lauren at home, and Pesci is more harsh, so Lauren is often reprimanded by her. In the past, Mark usually persuaded a few words on both sides, and basically turned big things into small things and small things into nothing.

But this time, Lauren once again brought up the matter of Pesci going to a nursing home, which was unacceptable to Pesci. After arguing with Lauren, Percy finds her son and tells him that he has decided to euthanize.

This ultimatum frightened Mark, who angrily scolded Lauren that night and drove her to sleep in the living room.

The next day, after the courtroom was over, Lauren did not choose to go home, but came to take Mary here and told her good friend the truth about the previous night.

Before leaving, Lauren swore and said: "I want her to move out, the house is already narrow, and now the family is not financially rich, is it necessary to live together." ”

The next night, Mary waited for the news that Lauren had been poisoned in the jurors' break.

"But does Lauren's death really have anything to do with her family?" Mary couldn't believe this, and she asked hesitantly.

What are these questions for David? "We just need to investigate every detail before the deceased died, and it helps us a lot to get to the bottom of it," said Pofil. As for who exactly the murderer is, we will inform you when we have the exact news. ”

Before he reached the parking position, Wang Lei's mobile phone rang: "Julie, have you found any news?" ”

"I found out that Jim's credit card was used at a motel on the outskirts of town half an hour ago, and I'll send you the hotel name and coordinates now." Julie and Yang Qian's hard work was not in vain, and they finally saw the results.

After a pause to discuss the conflict between Lauren and Mark and Pesci, the SUV pulled off its siren and sped towards the coordinates provided by Julie.

Very common motels, not only in Washington, but all over the United States. Of course, the sirens were turned off a few kilometers away.

When performing tasks, the siren is most used by ambulances. For the police, it is better to use it when they are in a hurry than to pull the siren to drive the car to the location of an unknown suspect.

Wang Lei often thinks of this, when watching TV in China, there will often be police cars pulling sirens to arrest suspects, and the sirens are ringing desperately downstairs, and the suspects upstairs look inaudible, this is a comedy, not a crime drama, okay?

David? Pofil didn't drive the car directly into the motel parking lot, this is a long two-story building, standing in the corridor on the second floor, you can clearly see all the locations of the parking lot below, driving the SUV in is tantamount to telling Jim directly? The Siller police came to the door.

Observed the surrounding environment and put down Wang Lei under a tree, David? Pofil drove the car past the motel as agreed, drove directly into a gas station, and then quietly came back from behind.

Slowly walking into the motel, inside the counter was an old white man, holding a bottle of wine in his hand, and a small TV set hanging on the wall was playing a TV series that I don't know what kind of TV series it was.

After all, it is not a star hotel, there is no hall. A little in front of the counter is a staircase, all individuals who go up to the second floor or enter from here, and those who like privacy can come in to pay the bill and get the key, and then go upstairs from the outside staircase.

First scanned it very secretly, and made sure that there was no one else here except for the old man behind the counter, Wang Lei took out his wallet, shook it open, and then took out his mobile phone, and clicked on a photo: "FBI, is this person staying here with you." ”

The old man has seen too many things like this, and whenever there is any trouble, the police will come to inquire, and he has long been surprised.

Very calmly picked up the wine bottle and took a sip, burping, the old man shook his head: "I don't know what to do." ”

This answer is very clever, the old man did not say, "I have not seen this person", nor did he say, "Who is this?" This response should have been.

With a smile, Wang Lei took out a $2 bill from his wallet and pushed it in front of the old man, who raised the bottle again and took a sip, still shaking his head: "I don't know what to do." ”

Three times in a row, each time for $2. The old man grinned, swept the money into the drawer, turned around and removed a key with the number "209" taped to it.

Holding the key in the palm of his hand, Wang Lei turned around and walked out, David? Pofil was already waiting at the top of the stairs.

Walking lightly in the corridor on the second floor, Wang Lei and David listened attentively to the sounds coming from each room.

There is a long, long inhalation sound of drug use, and there is also. Prostitute. Female. Lang. screamed, and the sound of the TV. This is a police affair and has nothing to do with the FBI, and the two chose to ignore it.

When 209 arrived, Wang Lei squatted down and deftly stepped over from under the window, David? Porfil drew the gourd in the same way, and the two of them stood at the door of 209.

There was also the sound of TV playback, carefully sticking to the wall and listening, Wang Lei shook his head, he couldn't hear how many people were in the room clearly, because no one was talking.

Glancing at each other, Wang Lei and David took out the P229 on their waists at the same time, nodded to David, and Wang Lei inserted the key into the lock hole very gently.

"1, 2, 3", Wang Lei turned the key violently and pushed it, David? P229 in Pofil's hand pointed into the room. Beg.

Motel rooms are generally single rooms with a bathroom, no living room, open the door to see the bed, the windowsill is a TV and a small table with a few teacups on it.

In room 209, on the large bed facing the door, sat a young man, who looked at the door that had suddenly been opened, and put one hand into his arms.

Taking two quick steps, David Pofil rushed to the young man, and P229 pressed against the young man's head: "FBI, Jim, take your hands out slowly, don't let me shoot, understand?" ”

Then Wang Lei, who rushed in, blocked the bathroom, and glanced over there, David controlled Jim, and Wang Lei then kicked open the door of the bathroom, and the muzzle of the gun shook up and down: "Safety." ”

David? Pofil has pulled out the handcuffs and put Jim? Siller was handcuffed, and strangely, Jim didn't make any resistance or justification, as if he had expected the FBI's arrival.

Taking Jim back to the FBI branch in Washington, Wang Lei first went to see Julie and Yang Qian, and then asked them to check Mark's work and Lauren's condition again.

Wait for Wang Lei to come out of the intelligence information center, David? Pofil couldn't take it anymore and began to interrogate Jim? Siller.

Wang Lei doesn't care about these behaviors, the credit, who doesn't want it. Especially under pressure from the District Court, the Prosecutor's Office, and numerous media outlets, David? Pofil rightfully needed this merit.

Although speaking of David? Pofil may be a little selfish, at least he should inform Wang Lei, thinking of this, Wang Lei just feels a little funny.
