"In September 1988, on the outskirts of Los Santos, on the road section of Choca, 13 women of all ages disappeared in a row for half a month... No clues... The agent in charge of the eucalyptus suspected that it was related to a passing circus at the time, and after investigation, no anomalies were found...

A month after the disappearance of eucalyptus, the agent in charge chose to suspend the investigation. ”

This eucalyptus case has no cause and effect, that is, a certain period of time, a certain place, a serial of missing women suddenly appeared.

The oldest of the missing persons was over 50 years old, and the youngest was only 13 years old.

Besides.

These missing women, whether professional or otherwise, have no obvious commonality, and the places of disappearance, scattered throughout the section of the Choka section, and the time of disappearance, are also scattered in various time periods, without the slightest reference value.

No.. Not right either.

All of the women were alone before they disappeared and were located near the kilometre section of the Choka Kilometer.

This is the only common denominator in this case.

Dean quickly tapped his fingers on the keyboard, and finally called up the information on the Joka Highway.

It is a suburban road with a total length of 23 kilometers, passing through three towns, two woods, and a cornfield, connecting the city, so the people who come and go are generally residents of the neighborhood or people who go to work in the city.

In this kind of place, students will be picked up and dropped off by school buses.

So how did the murderers, or rather, the murderers, choose their targets?

In addition, 13, in the entire West, is a special number.

This originated in medieval Europe.

Part of it, it's an allusion to the Christian faith, the Last Supper of Jesus, there were 13 people, including the betrayers, so this number, which is seen as an ominous number, is associated with betrayal and death.

In addition, the number 13 was originally considered by the people of the time to be the number of the devil, and it was related to witchcraft and evil.

It can be seen from many film and television dramas that people here have a special avoidance of 13, and even some apartment buildings do not have 13 floors at all.

Therefore, Dean speculated that this eucalyptus may be related to cult crimes, such as sacrifices, summoning devils and other strange events.

That's interesting.

Because of this eucalyptus, there is a very magical law: scale.

What does that mean?

It is this eucalyptus that often appears in a fixed group, such as a certain area, a certain occupation, or a certain group.

They will have their own spiritual beliefs, collective fixed activities, and at the same time, when they commit crimes, they will cooperate with secrecy and keep their mouths shut, and many times, they will have other identities as a cover, and even sometimes, they themselves are a collective crime in a village or town.

So unless a survivor escapes to report, it's hard to be exposed.

Since this eucalyptus can appear in the hands of the FBI, and the victims are concentrated in the three urban resident groups near the highway, the possibility of locals committing eucalyptus is very low.

Dean thought for a moment and set his gaze on the stall, which read Circus.

Here, there are often mobile circuses, traveling to and from all continents, touring, living a life that is not very affluent, and at the same time not having a good reputation.

Because with their arrival, theft, wandering, robbery, cheating, and so on, often happen.

The problem is that the file reads a detailed investigation by the agents at that time.

On the surface, this circus, which seems to be the most suspicious, did not have time to act, and before the arrival of the detectives, the circus was turned upside down by the families of the missing women and got rid of suspicion.

Dean could doubt the professionalism of the agents at the time, but he would never doubt the force of the residents of Los Santos.

It's a place that's famous as a crime capital in all of America.

Let's just put it this way.

It's possible that you're just walking down the road with a pink phone, and there may be a young gang member who sees you upset, pulls out a gun, beats you into a sieve, and then treats the incident as a frivolous conversation.

And many families over there have one or more members with gangster backgrounds.

So if that circus is the slightest bit suspicious, it will definitely not be able to get out of it.

This gave Dean a bit of a headache.

From the file alone, he couldn't find the direction of the broken eucalyptus.

The only thing that made him feel suspicious was actually the little circus.

But now, 13 years have passed since then.

Even if there is information about every member of the little circus in the file, this kind of mobile personnel, after a lapse of thirteen years, without the United States of America where all continents are united and perfectly registered, will cost people their lives.

Dean suspected that it would take a long time for him to find someone alone.

This doesn't meet his needs to break through the eucalyptus quickly and gain experience points.

So... This eucalyptus, get out of here!

..

I thought about it.

Dean didn't continue to look down at the eucalyptus, but first sorted all the eucalyptus according to his needs.

First of all, there are the regions.

The old eucalyptus he saw now included all the states and counties of the entire American Union.

If you pick a random eucalyptus to investigate.

Then even if it is cracked, in this area, it may not be possible to find the next suitable eucalyptus to investigate.

In this way, a lot of time will be consumed on the road.

So, choose the region first.

He is now located in a field training camp more than 100 kilometers from downtown Los Angeles.

It's closer to Las Vegas.

It is the largest city in Nevada, with a large number of residents, and at the same time, because it is a gambling city, there are many outsiders, attracting a large number of people from all walks of life.

This place is undoubtedly Dean's first choice.

Once the region is determined, it is the category of eucalyptus.

The eucalyptus pieces here are all old eucalyptus.

This means that what can help Dean the most is the eucalyptus file in his hand now, and many other evidences may have long disappeared with the passage of time.

Therefore, the suitable eucalyptus should be relatively close to now, and at the same time, in the course of the investigation, there are obvious suspects, but in the end it is impossible to convict the eucalyptus!

Soon.

Under Dean's screening, a large number of eucalyptus pieces were thinned out.

He took a sip of his coffee, cheered up, and carefully clicked on the top piece again.

...

"Jim Death Eucalyptus"

"In 1980, in Las Vegas, teenager Jim, after attending his girlfriend's party, the next day, his body appeared in a trash can not far from the party yard, with marks of beating, and the cause of death was intracranial hemorrhage.

He was beaten to death. ”

Seeing this, Dean let out a sigh of surprise.

Although the FBI has the right to investigate as long as it violates federal law, under normal circumstances, this kind of petty homicide is generally the responsibility of the local police detective bureau, and only if the impact of the case is too great, or some other reasons, the FBI will intervene.

He continued to look down.

Jim's body was found by the cleaners.

After the cleaner called the police, the Las Vegas police, and immediately a detective took over the case.

After investigation.

Witnesses said that the night before Jim's death, he was seen at a party, had a confrontation with someone, and was humiliated by the other party throwing alcohol on his face.

The agent in charge of the case immediately finds the person who clashed with Jim.

The identity of the other party is the brother of Jim's girlfriend.

The other party didn't agree with his sister and being with Jim, a poor boy, so he deliberately humiliated Jim in public at the party, and even prepared some other humiliation methods, but it was only because of his sister that he didn't implement it.

At the time of Jim's death, the other party was having a good time with a group of fox friends and dogs, and there were many people who could testify, so there was no motive to do it.

Eucalyptus here.

Under normal circumstances, the agent in charge of the eucalyptus, the next step, is to investigate the deceased's connections, ask his girlfriend, visit the surrounding neighbors...

But none of that.

The file records that end here.

Because the police detective in charge of the eucalyptus, on the way off work, suffered a car accident and died.

At that time, the police station was understaffed.

This eucalyptus was also stranded.

"Why is this eucalyptus recorded by the FBI?"

Doubts flashed in Dean's eyes.

Isn't this just an ordinary homicide?

There was no information about the involvement of FBI agents throughout the process.

It's inexplicable!

Suddenly.

Dean's gaze pulled up, fixed on the last name of the deceased girlfriend.

"Bao Na Thoma!"

Dean has little impression of the surname.

But after a computer query.

He found that the Thoma family is a famous family in Las Vegas, although it is not very powerful, but this family, in the local area, is also somewhat famous, and it is the first family to excavate Las Vegas, belonging to the landlord family.

From this point of view, the deceased Jim and his girlfriend are completely the drama of the princess on the poor boy list.

This kind of thing will also be found in the period of youth ignorance.

Clan...

A flash of inspiration flashed in Dean's head!

He immediately inquired about the members of the Thoma family and found that after Jim's death, his girlfriend Bao Na Thoma had another relationship two years later, and finally got married in 1984, and in 1985, they gave birth to a son.

Bao Na Thoma's husband is the eldest son of a local casino family.

That's why too.

Dean saw a photo of Paula Thoma's son on a photo of an event at that casino.

"Huh~"

I saw that in the photo, a handsome young man wearing a straight suit and mousse looked similar to Baona Thoma's brother.

Associated with the urine nature of the FBI.

Dean immediately knew why Jim, an inconspicuous little eucalyptus, appeared in the FBI's eucalyptus file.

Go without saying.

Nine times out of ten, the one who killed Jim was Jim's girlfriend, the brother of Bona Thoma.

Bao Na Thoma's brother is supposed to be a sister fetish, and even killed Jim after killing his own sister.

The police detective who investigated the case may not have really been in a car accident, but it is more likely that in the process of investigation, he found clues and was finally killed.

As mentioned earlier, the FBI is very chaotic internally.

In every state, there is a sub-bureau.

And the director of each sub-bureau has great authority, but his own treatment is very average, and it can even be said that it is poor.

If they want to live a prosperous life, they can only make a fortune with the help of their position power and their own operations.

For example, Dean teamed up with the black senior agent to hunt for the bounty of the skinning brothers.

This is a kind of extra money, relatively low-end.

Another is to use a powerful intelligence system to grasp the handle of some local family members, or to extort money, to cover up, or to use this as an opportunity to cooperate in certain things, and act in an embarrassed way.

"Damn, isn't this Jinyiwei?"

Dean touched the detective card in his pocket, a flash of excitement in his eyes.

But this excitement is only fleeting.

Because it suddenly occurred to him that many of the directors of intelligence services in the United States did not end up very well.

This may be the result of knowing too many secrets.

But...

In this large number of buried objects, will there be a handle on the Sol family's side?

"Iron still needs to be hard, even if the FBI secretly grasps the handle of Sol's family, it's not that I, an unknown person, can know, and if I know, it may not be useful..."

】

Thinking of this, Dean shook his head.

This is only suitable for beating the water dog, and before the dog falls into the water, it shows its intentions and is easy to be bitten by the dog, but it does not secretly use the method of physical destruction directly to come to safety and pleasure.

However, last time, he was able to destroy the Carmen family, and he was able to get out of the way, mainly because of the fact that Anbei was the culprit.

On the bright side, Dean and the Carmen family are not obviously involved.

That's why he made a decisive move.

Saul's thing is different.

It's easy to kill Thor, but it's not easy to eliminate the hidden dangers that follow.

Saul has competed against Dean, and Dean is now not an unknown person in the Los Angeles Police Department, but a recognized headshot detective and a rookie in the police world.

Once Thor dies violently.

Dean wants to get out, but it won't be easy.

After all, for those big families, the evidence is too cumbersome.

For the object of suspicion.

They prefer to go through the list of suspicions one by one.

It doesn't matter if you kill or not.

It is very important to express the family's iron-blooded attitude to the outside world.

This is also the reason why Dean chose to swallow his anger for the time being, away from his family and avoid the limelight after being treated unpleasantly.

...

Winter~

A knock on the door brought Dean back to his senses from his own world.

He looked up and saw that it was Chesston.

"Agent Dean, I wasn't in your room and found you having a change of clothes."

Chesson felt like he was being tricked by Dean, which made him can't help but think of when he was just in high school, he was pressed on the lawn by a group of seniors, took off his pants and slapped PP.

Dean couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Man, there are regular cleaning staff here, can you use your brain when you hear something?" ”

His clothes will be hidden with some small objects, how can it really be cleaned by outsiders.

Dean asked Cheston to help him do his laundry, just to test the intelligence of his future partner.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of an opponent like a god, you are afraid of an opponent like a pig.

If the partner is too stupid.

If you use it to block a gun, you will be disgusted by Dean.

Chesston's reaction was undoubtedly a disappointment to Dean.

As a result, hearing Dean's complaint, Cheston Earn, who was still a little apprehensive, smiled: "I know Agent Dean is joking, so I just spent a hundred dollars to get a message from the mouth of the previous instructor." ”

This aroused Dean's curiosity: "What news?" ”

"There was a recent serial murder of women in Las Vegas, which caused panic among local residents, and there were many tourists there, so the police department asked for the help of the FBI... We might be able to give it a try. ”

"Isn't there anyone docking on the FBI's side?"

Dean wondered.

This kind of eucalyptus, which has just happened, is undoubtedly more cost-effective than the large number of old eucalyptus on the computer.

But you can't just grab someone else's piece because of that.

Chestonn smiled:

"Agent Dean.

Generally, this kind of case is notified to the corresponding operational sub-bureau as soon as possible, and then the sub-bureau supervisor appoints an agent to be responsible for the investigation.

We are now 'free' agents, not under any precinct.

This also means that we can actively participate in any project.

If it is the kind of eucalyptus that is about to be detected, that group of guys will definitely not want us to share the credit, but this kind of eucalyptus that is obviously a blame-throwing case, as long as we propose to take over, the director of the sub-bureau will definitely not refuse! ”

After hearing this, Dean did not reply, but stared at Cheston for a few seconds before he said slowly: "Cheston, you also said that this eucalyptus is the local police in Las Vegas, worried about being infamous for incompetence, so they shirked it to the FBI, why do you think I will be interested?" ”

"This is Agent Dean, you took the initiative to tell me!"

Cheston has been dealing with Dean for so long, and he has to be frightened every time, so he naturally studied Dean's style and preferences, so as not to offend him unintentionally.

Seeing Dean's eyes puzzled.

Chestonn continued:

"Agent Dean, after you were given permission to investigate the eucalyptus, you asked me to retrieve a large number of old eucalyptus from the inventory as soon as possible, which shows that you have a high enthusiasm for the detection of eucalyptus.

I once heard a saying: the strong often enjoy the joy of hardship, while the weak only lament the torture that difficulties bring them.

I think it's because of Agent Dean, who is this kind of strong man, that he can become the new star detective of the Los Angeles Police Department!

That's the main reason why I chose to follow you.

You have shown me a bright future! ”

Boy!

Dean called out to himself good guy!

Look down on this guy Chestonne!

Chesston's words not only explained the reason why he did this, but also praised Dean, showed loyalty by the way, and most importantly, showed his level of understanding of his boss, in order to show that he was not incompetent.

At least Dean listened to this explanation and looked at Chesston's gaze a little more agreeable.

He got up, stretched, took out a cigarette from the table, threw it to Cheston, and motioned for him to sit down: "You said it well, then you should have a basic understanding of the serial murder and corpse throwing in Las Vegas, right?" ”

Chestann nodded: "According to the information I have received so far, the deceased are all women, aged between 18~25, blonde, beautiful and atmospheric, with a student, white-collar worker, and waiter, and they have no connection with each other, and they died miserably at the same time." ”

He paused, licked his lips, and continued:

"In the space of a month, in Las Vegas, there have been five similar homicides.

The dead were all murderers, and their bodies were dumped on the side of a remote road.

The death of the deceased is tragic and similar.

Large lacerations were found on their lower bodies.

There are traces of electric shock around the wound.

The medical examiner guessed that the murderer was in front of them, brutally using some kind of electric shock weapon, and stabbed them in.

And the murderer very cruelly hollowed out the abdominal cavity of the deceased through the wound of the deceased's lower body, and finally put the internal organs that were taken out into the shape of a flower and placed it on the side of the deceased's body.

According to forensic tests.

The time of death of the five women victims was between 1 and 3 a.m.

The place where the body was dumped is the scene of the first life.

The special climate of Las Vegas led to the police finding the body when the surrounding scene, the traces, had been covered with sand, which is the main reason why the eucalyptus has not progressed. ”

Bang Bang Bang ~

Faced with Chesston's complete explanation, Dean couldn't help but clap his face.

He didn't hesitate to praise, "Cheston, you're much better than I thought, at least better than the members of my previous squad!" ”

Cheston Ern, the time to leave was only ten minutes.

As a result, this guy not only saw through Dean's idea of wanting to test himself, but also took the initiative to find the instructor he knew before, obtained the details of the eucalyptus, and wrote them all down.

The key is that he can also relay it to Dean in a coherent and clear way.

That's ability!

Hear compliments.

Cheston breathed a sigh of relief.

Dean's reaction should be to accept himself.

...

"Okay, Chesston, time is the lifeline of the victims, you immediately contact the FBI branch in Las Vegas and tell them that we have taken this eucalyptus!"

"Okay, Agent Dean!"

Hearing Dean say we, Cheston Brown smiled and walked out of the office.

This is the FBI's training base in California.

Dean and they are only temporarily borrowing, and if they leave this time, they may not return again.

So before going to Las Vegas, Dean unceremoniously applied for a batch of weapons and ammunition from the base, and all of them were moved to his Humvee.

Chesston's side also contacted the police department in Las Vegas to contact people.

After everything is in order.

In the roar of the Hummer's irascible motor, the two took the first step to become famous in the United States!

...

Just when Dean was running around on the Broken Eucalyptus journey.

In the Commonwealth, Dean's little girlfriend Neil, also under the reluctant kiss of her mother, happily pulled her suitcase and got on a private jet to Los Angeles.

She has completed all the assessments given to her by her mother and has successfully obtained the start-up funds funded by her mother.

Now it's time to go back to America and be reunited with Dean.

Neil didn't notify Dean in advance.

She wanted to surprise Dean by conducting a surprise check to see if Dean was messing around behind his back!

If it's messy!

Hum!

I must ravage that flowery man fiercely when the time comes!

On the plane, Neil only felt like a year.

As soon as she got off the plane, she hurriedly left the VIP tunnel with the warm service of the crew, but because her mind was full of what Dean was expecting when he saw her, she happened to bump into a handsome man who also walked out of the VIP tunnel on the other side.

Next to the handsome man, there was a fashionably dressed blonde.

I saw my companion fall to the ground.

The blonde glared at Neil viciously, quickly squatted down, revealing her terrifying shoreline colleagues, and said coquettishly, "Jos, dear, are you okay..."

The handsome man was hit a little badly.

He got up from the ground and responded, "It's okay..."

Neil stood aside, embarrassed and apologetic, and just wanted to apologize, but happened to see the face of the man who stood up, and exclaimed in surprise: "Ruoss? ”

When Joss heard Neil call his name, he looked up and smiled, "Neel, long time no see." ”

...

The other side.

When Neil arrives in Los Angeles.

Dean, on his part, also drove to the Las Vegas sub-bureau.
