409 Difficult investigation

While Jimmy and Mahon are investigating their trajectory, Felicia has already contacted the police, and they will go to the owner's home to investigate and report back, which will only take time.

It was hardened ground, and there was no way to leave any trace of it, and after walking a little more, they turned back and began to search on the dirt road on the shoulder of the road, until they came to the Hudson River.

Jimmy found a shadow in the range of his mind, and when he walked over, he found that there were a few pieces of clothing, thrown behind a bush by the river, which looked like the clothes in the owner's trunk, because they were obviously folded, but they spread out a little when they were thrown, and there were two orange prison uniforms next to them, which were stained with the smell of sewers, and they smelled terrible to death.

Jimmy: "Mahon, there's something here. When Mahon saw the clothes, he beckoned the local police to come and pull a cordon, and did not let them approach, there may be their footprints here, and someone from the forensic department needs to investigate, Jimmy and Mahon cautiously retreated.

Jimmy: "Looks like they might have left the river. Mahon: "Not necessarily, there is also a railroad track here, and it is possible that they will walk forward and backward along the railroad track." Jimmy: "It's possible, but I still think it's unlikely, there's only one track here, it should be some kind of business, it can't be a passenger railway, even if the trains of this kind of railway are still running, there will definitely not be many departures, they are not so lucky to come across a running train." Ma Hong: "Well, that makes sense, let's investigate the Hudson River first." Mahon looked at the Hudson River in front of him, and he also had a headache, he turned around and called Felicia over,

"Felicia, contact the police department and have them notify the state police and the county and city police departments around the Hudson River to investigate the area around the Hudson River. Mobilize two more K9 squads, we need their help. Jimmy: "One more thing, he might be suspicious and walk along the river to the left and right." We don't have a dock in this location right now, and ordinary boats can't dock here to pick people up, either they just happen to run into a small boat, or they have to go along the river to find a spot. Mahon nodded: "Jimmy, you go north along the river to find a section first, and we look south." Jimmy nodded, and looked straight north along the riverbank, his mind activated from the moment he spotted the car, and he never stopped.

Now, when looking along the riverbank, it is convenient for the mental eye to find things hidden behind other objects that cannot be seen by normal sight.

This is not an area covered by normal roads, there are no roads nearby, there are no buildings, it is completely wasteland, there are some sparse bushes and bushes by the river, within the coverage of the heart's eye, Jimmy is not worried about someone ambushing him here, but he is walking a little slowly, the environment here is not very good, the car can't drive in, Jimmy wishes he had a motorcycle, at least he can walk in this kind of place.

As he walked, he pondered and looked around, and slowly Jimmy was getting farther and farther away from Mahon and them.

Jimmy was used to handling eucalyptus alone, and after a long walk he was so focused on tracking that he almost forgot that there were two more people waiting there.

He took out his mobile phone and looked at it, the signal was only two bars, and the full signal was 4 bars, fk, this is still in New York State, although the place is a little remote, it won't be like this.

Jimmy is also speechless for the area covered by Lao Mei's mobile phone signal, there must be no problem in the city and the surrounding areas, but in the wild, there will always be various corners and corners where there is no signal.

Fortunately, the current location is not particularly remote, and you can make a call with a little signal. Jimmy called Mahon to report his current location, and he found nothing for the time being, and he will continue to investigate further north.

Ma Hong has no opinion, and they are also looking south, while waiting for news from the police station and notifying other departments to jointly investigate.

Jimmy continued to chase forward, and after searching for a little longer, he found a path that led to the river, and at the same time there was a small wooden dock that was apparently self-made.

Jimmy stood on the dock and looked around, there were no boats here, according to the appearance of this small dock, there was at most a small fishing boat parked here, this environment was very suitable for the suspect to escape, if there were boats here.

Instead of informing Mahon directly, Jimmy chose to search inside along the trail and soon found a hut.

It was a homemade hunting lodge, apparently made by one or two people alone, and very rough.

Jimmy approached the hut, but no one else was visible in his mind's eye, and he put on disposable gloves and gently pushed open the door of the hut.

Strangely, even if there is no lock, this kind of hunting lodge will at least make a simple lock out of wood to prevent it from being broken into by animals.

The hut looked chaotic, Jimmy didn't go into the hut, but just quit after looking around, took out his mobile phone and dialed Mahon's number.

Jimmy: "Mahon, I've found a small dock and a hunting lodge here, and the contents of the hunting lodge are messy and may have been turned over. Ma Hong: "Don't destroy the scene, wait for us to come." Jimmy: "Okay, I'm walking along the river, and I'm not sure where to go if you're coming by road." Ma Hong: "How far?" Jimmy: "3-4 km." Ma Hong: "Okay." Jimmy reported the location, pulled the door of the hunting lodge directly, and then began to look for footprints around, he had a hunch that the situation where it was turned over was definitely not done by the person who built the hut, although his hut was very rough, but since it was a hunting lodge, as a hunter or a temporary hunter, tidying up his hunting lodge was a must.

Jimmy used to be in Arkansas, and there were also such hunting lodges there, at least the few Jimmy saw were unconventional, and the food, seasonings, and wood were all sorted and placed in their respective places.

The two people who escaped had dinner in the evening, although the dinner in the prison was not good, but at least it means that they did not go hungry when they left the prison, which means that they had enough physical strength to escape here, just because they only took a brief look, they did not find the reserve food in the hunting lodge in detail, which means that it is likely that the food here was eaten or taken away by them.

Then their escape route could be the small pier just now, or the woods here. Jimmy searched in the woods for a while, then he heard the sound of the engine, followed by the horn of the car, he turned back to the cabin, Mahon and they had already gotten out of the car, in addition to Mahon and Felicia's two cars, followed by two police cars and Jimmy's car.

Three city police officers got out of the two police cars, and they were supposed to be the same policemen who had been guarding the abandoned car just now.

A policeman also got out of Jimmy's car, and just now Jimmy forgot to tell Mahon about his car, but Mahon didn't forget it.

Jimmy: "Mahon, I didn't move inside the hut, I just pushed the door open, and now I need to do a round of investigation inside." Ma Hong nodded, and the police behind him also followed, and put up a cordon around according to Ma Hong's request.

Jimmy and Mahon walked into the hut, this hut is not big, there can't be too many people coming in, there are no shotguns and bullets here, it's not sure if it was taken away or the original hunter didn't store it here, this really can't be judged directly, because hunters have their own habits, some people like to put their weapons in the hunting hut and prepare it when they get here, and some people just use the hunting hut as a temporary residence, just a place to rest.

There was a reserve of timber here, and in the middle of the hut there was a stove made of iron frame and iron sheets, which, judging by the ash inside, had not been used for a long time.

A wooden bed was covered with some hay, on top of which was a very dirty sheet, a few pieces of clothing, and a pillow was a piece of wood with some cloth on it.

There were no quilts found in the hut, which is a bit strange, no matter what the season, as long as you rest here, you theoretically need a quilt.

Judging from what has been found so far, it does not look like a hunting lodge but rather a temporary hut for vacations, because there are no hunting knives or anything like that, no axes to be seen, and no animal skins or skeletal trophies that are usually found in hunting lodges.

They searched around, but they didn't find anything like stocked food or compressed biscuits, and there was no spice box.

Jimmy: "There's no lighter here, and no one is lighting it, so if it's really the two of them who are here to search and take it, it's unlikely." It's winter, and even if they think someone is chasing them, there is firewood here, and it's necessary to light it for them to recover. Ma Hong: "Maybe it's really to avoid being found out that there are people here?" This possibility cannot be ruled out. Jimmy: "Then we need to make sure if they're actually here." Mahon: "Wait a minute, let someone check their fingerprints, and if you find their fingerprints, then start an investigation along the neighborhood." The two left the wooden house and asked the police to call the police forensics personnel to come over, for fingerprint identification, or professionals are more reliable, the key is that although the equipment in their car can be collected, it also needs to be sent back for processing, which is more troublesome.

The FBI investigated the prison escapees, this matter was a high priority, and the police station did not delay, and arranged a large number of people to rush to support, and even Jimmy was shocked when they saw the forensic personnel, and the portable detectors were brought, which could directly scan and analyze the collected fingerprint data and match it with the system fingerprint data.

Soon, they detected the fingerprints of three people in the cabin, one of whom was Rob Reilly, one of the fugitives this time.

Finally, there was a definite clue that the fugitive Reilly had indeed passed by and searched the hut, but it was not clear what he had taken for the time being.

The other two people did not have a record in the fingerprint system, which is not to say that they had a problem, but that two people did not have a criminal record recorded in the eucalyptus.

There are many such cases, and not everyone in the United States has a criminal record, or not all people who have committed crimes will be caught, so there is naturally no fingerprint bank for criminals.

Mahon is still frowning, now only one fugitive has been confirmed, what about the other Cameron Brown?

Where the hell did he go? Jimmy: "They seem to have run away separately and are not together. Mahon nodded, this Reilly went north, if he had been following the Hudson River, there was still a certain possibility of finding it, this was a more definite direction, but where did the other person go?

Jimmy: "Mahon, I think it's still necessary to investigate separately, what's the name of the owner of the hijacked car?" Felicia. Felicia: "Aaron Burns, male, 38 years old, owner of two used car shops. Jimmy: "Okay, Aaron Burns, when he was found, he had no clothes on him, he should have been taken by the two of them, and at the same time, we didn't find wallets, mobile phones, keys and other items in the car, so it can be inferred that they were also taken by the two of them." I think there are two things that should be investigated now, the first is Rob Reilly, who is now determined in this direction, and he starts from this hut to investigate the surroundings. The second is Aaron Burns, whose documents and bank cards are likely to be used by them, and the possibility that they threatened Burns to obtain the bank card password cannot be ruled out. Ma Hong nodded, he had thought about this before,

"I've had Aaron's ID and card information monitored, and there's no news yet. Let's look for the traces of Rob Reilly in the neighborhood first, and hope the two don't run apart. Jimmy shrugged, Mahon thought really fast, it should be the Manhattan office that Mahon contacted when he was looking north alone for clues, and it was really experienced.

Jimmy: "Has the K9 team arrived?" Ma Hong: "No, it's already on the way, and there were eucalyptus people who were busy before." Jimmy and the others separated and began to look around, and at the same time asked the police to continue to investigate the Hudson River, found small fishing boats and other small boats, try to check and confirm, the small dock that Jimmy reported they also saw, this kind of dock must be a small boat, definitely not a large yacht or something.

Jimmy is still looking north along the Hudson River, it has been almost 3 hours since they found the missing car, and there are no trains passing by the train track next to it, it seems that Jimmy's previous judgment is right, this track is either abandoned, or it is a dedicated track, and the frequency is very small.

After going deep into the forest, the scene in front of you is very monotonous, the ground is a thick layer of deciduous decay, this environment has no way to tell whether someone has passed here, because the forest range is not small, and the field of vision will be blocked by various trees and grasses, and it is difficult to find traces of the ground.

Jimmy observes his surroundings with his eyes and minds, in addition to looking for people, more to observe whether there are any animals, safety first.

Soon, a shadow appeared in Jimmy's mind, how could someone lie on the ground in this kind of wood?

Jimmy turned around and walked towards the shadows he saw, and soon came to the area, indeed a man, but apparently dead for some time.

Jimmy took a closer look, it was a hunter, he still had his shotgun next to him, the gun belt was still hanging on his shoulder, there was already a smell of corpses here, although it didn't seem to be much decay, but it was winter, the temperature was too low, it was probably a few days of death.

Jimmy's judgment of the time of death of the corpse is not professional, and he only knew some about it during the academy training, these are forensic specialties, and Jimmy and these agents can make a rough judgment.

Jimmy took out his phone, the signal in the forest was very bad, and now it shows that there is no signal. Jimmy made a note of the surroundings and left the forest in the direction of the Hudson River before calling Mahon.

Jimmy: "Mahon, I've got something unusual here, I found an adult male corpse, I think he went into the forest to hunt, the shotgun is still around, and he must have been dead for a few days. "Ma Hong is speechless, don't you know what our task is now?

Ma Hong: "I know, I'll notify the police to investigate, since he has been dead for a few days, it has nothing to do with our current task, continue to track down the fugitives, and leave it to the local police here." "It was a complete accident, but it would be a serious dereliction of duty if the body was found and not reported, and Jimmy suspected that this man should be the owner of the hunting lodge he had just discovered, but since he had been dead for a few days, he must have nothing to do with the two fugitives.

Jimmy: "But Mahon, this person may be the owner of the hut, if it is really him, then he must have a car or other means of transportation when he came to the hut, will he be driven away by the fugitives?" Or did he come in a small boat, and the fugitive drove his boat into the Hudson River? Mahon paused,

"We'll come right here, you wait nearby." Jimmy reported his location, and stood by the river waiting for them to come, if they were directly in the forest, there was no signal over there, and even by the river there was only one or two signals, it was so unfriendly to them, the nearest signal tower was definitely quite a distance away.
