Chapter 166: Peak Loop
The Mexican gang, one of the most dangerous gangs in Los Angeles, is mainly involved in drug dealing and arms trafficking. Suffice it to say, more than 30 percent of the drug trade and more than 18 percent of arms traffic in Los Angeles are controlled by Mexican gangs.
The founder of the Mexican gang was Eric. At the age of 20, Eric gathered a group of people to start the gang and spent 10 years growing it.
At the age of 33, the Mexican gang had already occupied the top of the underground world in Los Angeles, and at the age of 35, Eric handed over the gang to his brother, quit the gang himself, and began a charity promotion of the "Poor Relief Program" for more than 10 years.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Eric completely bleached his identity and successfully entered the Los Angeles high society.
At the age of 40, Eric began to try his hand at politics, and used a lot of money to gain the support of the people at the bottom, and finally succeeded in running for the mayor of Los Angeles at the age of 52.
This is a history of struggle for a poor boy, and it is very inspirational to write a book. Coleman had already begun to ponder whether to ask for help from headquarters, and Nathan looked uncertain and uneasy.
James naturally understood the shock of this answer, and he was afraid to look at the FBI agent. He shrugged, "I can provide you with this video, but I ask for the FBI's protection." ”
Wang Lei shook his head: "Coleman, we should go to Kerry to verify first, and then consider Eric's matter when we get the evidence, don't worry." ”
Nathan took James to the bank to pick up the videotape, Wang Lei and Coleman drove to Mike's house, they had just called Carry, and Carrey was at home.
Kerry was very resistant, and the first thing he said when he opened the door was, "Why are you looking for me alone?" "The tone is tough.
Coleman glanced at the woman, and it was she who showed her affection to Mike in public, and she was the one who had a private meeting with her lover: "Don't you invite us in first?" ”
Kerry was slightly dissatisfied and moved out of the way, and after the two came in, he closed the door heavily, pointing to the sofa in the living room: "Sit down, say something quickly, I still have to rest." ”
"We wonder who you're spending so much time with in the cabin, Kerry?" Wang Lei's words were full of sarcasm.
Carrey's face turned pale instantly, and he was about to retort with anger, but Coleman followed up with another sentence: "I'm afraid you don't know that James has a video tape in his hand, right?" ”
Kerry was about to stand up, but when he heard this, he sat back down. She hated James now and couldn't kill him to relieve the pain in her heart.
Wang Lei got up habitually, put his hands in his pockets, and looked around. Coleman and Carey were talking, and what Carey said was all Wang Lei's surprise, and she admitted her affair with Eric, but categorically denied that it had anything to do with the assassination.
A photo above the fireplace caught Wang Lei's attention, and he walked over and looked at it carefully.
It's a photo from many years ago, and it's already a little yellowed and the edges are badly worn. The fireplace is about more than a meter high, and the photo is hung higher, and Wang Lei can't see it clearly when he stands on tiptoe.
After trying hard a few times, Wang Lei gave up with self-deprecation. Turning around, he looked at the two people who were still talking on the other side of the sofa: "Kerry, I'm sorry, can I take this photo down and take a look?" ”
looked up blankly at the position pointed by Wang Lei, and nodded indifferently: "If you want to take it off, take it off." Carey herself couldn't remember what picture was hanging on the fireplace, but in her memory, it seemed like Mike had hung it a long, long time ago.
The photo shows a group of young people, all dressed in military uniforms, with their hair cut short, and from the jerky smiles of everyone in the photo, it can be seen that this is a group of young men who have just enlisted in the army.
Wang Lei looked at it very carefully, as if he knew the group of people in the photo. Coleman and Carrey walked back and forth, and Coleman also stretched out his head to take a look: "It must be a photo of Mike enlisting in the army, I also have it at home, and when my father joined the army, his teammates from one of their companies took a lot together, and now whenever someone goes to the house, he will point to these old photos to show off." ”
Carey also remembered: "Oh, yes, this is what Mike took when he enlisted in the army more than 20 years ago, and the older one at the front was his instructor, who died a few years ago, and Mike went to his funeral." ”
Wang Lei carefully pinched one corner of the photo with two fingers, and motioned for Kaleman to take out a bag of evidence: "Kerry, this photo is very important to us, I need to take it back and analyze it, I will send it back to you when I run out, please don't mind." ”
Take it away, take it away, what does it matter with an old photo, although Carey was puzzled, he still agreed to Wang Lei's request. After friendly negotiations with Coleman, Carrey and Coleman have reached an agreement.
At 10 p.m., Carey was responsible for inviting Eric to Wang Lei's residence to talk and ensure Eric's cooperation, but Coleman was not allowed to leak the matter to anyone, nor was it allowed to be included in the FBI report.
On the way back, Coleman asked, "Wang Lei, what are you doing with this photo, and what does it have to do with the case?" ”
"I don't know what to say yet, maybe it will be useful, I'll tell you when I figure it out." This is not Wang Lei's sale, he has some ideas, but they have not been confirmed.
Wang Shui'er was swimming, Julie was lying on the beach chair enjoying the beautiful sunset, and Yang Qian didn't know where she went.
Coleman was used to going to the kitchen to make coffee by himself, Wang Lei was worried that Wang Shui'er was naughty, so he asked far away: "Why is Yang Qian not here?" ”
Julie raised her arms and waved her hand indiscriminately, "In the bedroom, she said she wanted to sleep for a while." What, miss her? Giggles"
Wang Lei turned around and left, this kind of woman is safer to stay away.
Coleman just broke two cups of coffee and handed one to Wang Lei with a smile, and he also heard Julie's words just now. It is said that the golden house is beautiful, Wang Lei is a good golden house, and the Tibetan is correct, three beauties.
However, if you want to say that people are hiding Jiao is a beautiful blessing, Wang Lei can only be regarded as a servant, and he has to be the kind of servant who comes when he is called and goes when he is gone.
How could Wang Lei not see through the smile on the corner of Coleman's mouth, and glared at him: "Let the branch investigate the background information of everyone in the photo." ”
The two of them were chatting in the living room, and they were occasionally amused by the sounds of the pool. Yang Qian is definitely not sleeping, Wang Lei knows it very well, however, there are some things he doesn't want to participate in, and he can't pull Yang Qian out of the whirlpool in time like last time.
Perhaps, it's time to find a chance to talk to Yang Qian, Wang Lei pondered the pros and cons of doing so, and couldn't decide for a while.
Nathan had already gotten the tape and went back to the branch for testing, and the content was taken naturally, without any traces of human processing in it.
Just as Julie came in, Wang Lei handed her the photo and asked her to do a scan and send it to Nathan, and arrange for the branch to start the matter immediately.
After a few small talks, and then out for dinner, Coleman received a call from Carrey, saying that he would be arriving with Eric soon.
Involving the mayor of Los Angeles, the three women thoughtfully went upstairs and went back to the bedroom. As for whether he used some small equipment upstairs to eavesdrop, Wang Lei didn't dare to guarantee.
Eric's head was full of gray hair, very neatly trimmed, and a well-fitting suit set off the whole person very manly, no wonder Kerry was holding his arm with a fascinated look.
Eric didn't wait to sit down before he confessed his affair with Kerry, and he also told about the twice-weekly dates. That's not all, Eric also brought his schedule from the previous few days.
Based on the schedule and the witnesses listed by Eric, it is possible to tentatively conclude that Eric had nothing to do with the assassination without having checked it.
Wang Lei's phone rang, expressing his apologies, Wang Lei stepped aside, this was Nathan calling. Wang Lei listened silently and didn't say anything, which provoked Eric to glance at Wang Lei, wondering if this was a fake call.
Hanging up the phone, Wang Lei walked over with a smile and held Eric's hand: "It has been confirmed, this matter has nothing to do with you, I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you." ”
Eric and Carrey left in a daze, the schedule and witness list were still on the coffee table, and they didn't see Wang Lei and Cowman arranging for someone to check, so they answered a silent phone call, how did they know that they were innocent?
Wang Lei told the three women that this time it was a safe arrest and there would be no shootout. The three women were still scared to send him out, and Julie repeatedly told Cowman that she must protect Wang Lei.
In the car, Wang Lei explained: "Let's go to Mike's house, he should be at home now." ”
Mike is the murderer! Coleman is ignorant, isn't this ruled out? At first, everyone was suspicious of Mike, but because of Kerry's personal affairs, he no longer thinks so.
What's more, even if Eric had witnesses, of course he would have witnesses, hundreds or thousands of them could be provided, with his power.
In Coleman's analysis of the entire case, the biggest suspect is still Eric, Wang Lei smiled but did not answer, everything went to the scene to speak.
Kerry and Eric kissed goodbye not far from home, and as soon as they entered the house, two SUVs converged behind her. Nathan jumped out of the car with a happy face, handed a few pieces of paper to Wang Lei, and then took the initiative to knock on the door.
Mike had just taken Kerry's handbag at the door, ready to help her take off her coat, when he heard a knock on the door and opened the door in surprise: "Why are you?" Caught the gunman? ”
Tobia's affairs are kept secret by the police and the FBI for the time being, and the media is not aware of them, so Mike doesn't know anything about it. Carey was behind Mike, looking at Wang Lei and Cowman coming over, and a wave of fear rose in his heart.
Although Carey and Eric have been entangled for a long time, she has never thought of divorce. Moreover, Carrey's original purpose was just to find a man who was pleasing to the eye to meet his physical needs.
