The next day, Jimmy receives a call from Dolch.

"Hi Jimmy, the information you asked me to check has been checked, and there is no record of two people in the detention center or the police system. It doesn't look like they've reported it here in Little Rock. ”

"Thanks, Dolch. I'll think about it again. Goodbye"

Jimmy was disappointed, and if Little Rock didn't have a record, he had to go to the police department in Linxian County, but he had no acquaintances.

Jimmy returns to the police station and finds Director James, but there is no way to contact the other police stations, so he really has to look for him.

"Director, there is something I may need to trouble you, I am looking for 2 people, I have been missing for 2 months, I want to contact the police station next to me to help see if there is any information about their report."

Jimmy placed a copy of the photograph on the Director's desk, and Director James picked it up and looked at it.

"What do they have to do with you?"

"It doesn't matter, it's just a personal reason to check their disappearance, whether there is a record in the surrounding county."

"You'd better send the fax yourself, just mark it clearly."

"Okay, Director."

Jimmy touched his nose, if the director came forward to contact, other police stations should give some face, hurry up and check, this is no fun.

Jimmy went to Amy's side and got the fax numbers of several county police stations around him, pasted his business card on the photocopies, wrote that he was looking for 2 people, he had been missing for more than 2 months, and asked his colleagues from the police station to contact him, and then sent it according to the fax numbers of each police station.

This kind of direct fax is basically rarely seen and replied to immediately. Jimmy also had no choice, the easiest way was vetoed, he could only use this stupid method, hoping that the people in the other police stations could help him check the information for the sake of the same police.

The rest is to wait, Jimmy can only go out on patrol, because of Karg's leave, they have a larger range of responsibilities, fortunately, as long as they are lazy, waiting for the dispatch center, it is basically easy.

What Jimmy is doing here, Kag already knows, after all, he has been in the police station for more than 20 years, this kind of county police station is very stable, not a sudden accident, few people will jump back and forth, and the source is, Amy, the big housekeeper of the police station.

Karg didn't contact Jimmy to stop, he knew that Jimmy would definitely continue to investigate, and the most important thing now was to recover as soon as possible and go back to the police station to find out the guy who seduced Nick. Middle-aged honest people are also very angry, especially when it comes to family members.

Karg also made a few phone calls, he has been in the police station for so long, he also has a lot of informants, and he can't do anything big, but it's still no problem to help inquire about some news, as long as he can find that guy, it's a big deal to give some favors to those informants.

Jimmy is on patrol when he suddenly receives a call from the Chief.

"Hey, Jimmy, I went to Diegreen Mountain State Park, there was a house fire over there, and after the fire went out, a body was found, and the park police department asked us to help take a look."

"Okay, Director."

Jimmy pulled the police lights directly and drove to Diecui Mountain State Park, which is the northwest corner of Little Rock, out of the area of Little Rock, and belongs to Pulaski County, but because the state park has its own park police system, the county police usually don't go there.

There are two main types of police in state parks, one is the National Park Police, which is subordinate to the National Park Service of the United States, which is subordinate to the internal government, mainly managing national parks, historical sites, etc., nominally managing national parks (National Park), but in fact, some state parks (State parks) also have park police, but more often see park rangers (Rangers), and there are also rangers. Pat Bright, who Jimmy contacted earlier, was Ranger Park Ranger.

The second type of police is the hunting police, if there are many kinds of wild animals in the park woodland, or there are rare species and the like, there will usually be hunting police patrols, guards, training and guidance for hunters, so as to avoid them accidentally injuring rare animals, etc., for poaching and other crimes to arrest, this kind of police tourists are basically not easy to see.

Jimmy arrives at the state park and is guided by the guards to a house that has burned down.

"I'm Jimmy Young, assistant county sheriff, who's in charge here?"

"It's me, McKinsey Remy, a member of the park board." A middle-aged white man came over and shook Jimmy's hand.

"Hello, Mr. Remy, tell me about the case."

"You come with me. This is a watch room for our rangers, and the person in charge here is Pat Bright. ”

"Wait, you're talking about Pat Bright? White, old, thinning hair? ”

"Yes, you know him?"

"Well, we have a friend in common. You continue. ”

McKinsey Raimi continued: "This morning, the patrol guard found out about the fire here and called the fire brigade to put it out.

When the fire was extinguished, we found a charred corpse in the tool room next door, wearing a ranger's suit, which could be seen from the belt and badge, and we identified him as Ranger Pat Bright. But the cause of his death was not a fire, but a bullet in the head. ”

McKinsey Remy took Jimmy to a yellow body bag and unzipped it at the head level.

A charred head is displayed in front of Jimmy, who glances at the bullet hole in his head and motions for McKinsey to zip up.

"Tell the coroner to come and wait for his autopsy report. Do you have surveillance on your side? Around, in any direction. The scene has been messed up by the firefighters and your people, and there is no way to collect footprints. ”

"There is a problem with the traffic camera, it has not been repaired, there is only an infrared camera in the forest area at present, but it is far away from here, it is to monitor fire prevention and shoot wild animals, these videos should be of little use."

"Let's take a look, the period between last night and this morning, before the fire was discovered."

McKinsey Remy took Jimmy to the management board building, where the surveillance footage would eventually be recovered.

There were only 2 cameras around the burning duty room, and they sped up and didn't notice anyone passing through the area. Jimmy asked McKinsey to get busy first, and he replayed the two videos, and this time the fast-forward rate slowed down, and found that there were not many wild animals in the forest, probably too close to Little Rock, and there were no dangerous animals nearby.

After playing it twice, Jimmy finally gave up, and the footage taken by these cameras was not particularly clear, let alone not photographing anyone, and even if it did, it was difficult to get a clear image record.
