Chapter Seventy-Three: Stupid Policeman

Angela rarely had no appetite today, playing with the wine glass in her hand, shaking the little wine left in it, and frowning.

"When the suspect broke into the house illegally, he just wanted to catch Jeff and get the illegal drugs, and it can be inferred that Jeff either stole these things from him, or owed money and didn't give it."

"But I can't think of any reason for the infighting between the suspects, and the forensic officer said that several illegal drugs were found in Bruno's home, indicating that the conflict was not caused by the uneven distribution of the spoils."

Jack scratched his head a little: "Is it possible that it is not infighting, but that the suspect has other enemies?" ”

But then he refuted his speculations.

"It was a coincidence, it happened just a few hours later."

On the side, Justis listened to John's introduction of the case, and couldn't help but sigh.

"The family is also so unfortunate, especially the father, who lost his son just because of a small bag of pills, and even his wife was ...... in front of him"

Everyone's hearts moved in unison, and even Wesley, who was listening, raised his hand.

"Is it possible that the father actually saw the suspects and recognized them on the spot? He lied to you. ”

John agreed, and put himself in the shoes of the father.

"If anyone dares to hurt my Henry, I will definitely return blood for blood."

Angela's brows suddenly relaxed, and she put down the wine glass in her hand.

"Matt Christine paid his son Jeff to go to rehabilitation, and the reason why he hid it from us was not because he felt ashamed, but because he ......"

"It's because Jeff probably met Bruno at the addiction treatment center, and Matt, who went to visit his son, probably met Bruno there, and then recognized him on the spot when the incident happened today, and decided to take revenge himself."

Jack excitedly continued, but then a little disappointed.

"But it doesn't help us to find the other killer."

Angel seemed to have found hope again.

"Anyway, we're going to tell Matt tomorrow to come to the police station in the morning and do a new interrogation to see if he knows another suspect."

Early the next morning, at the door of the interrogation room, Jack and Angela glanced at Matt Christine, who was waiting inside, the grieving father's face was still bruised and haggard.

"How do you ask? Good cops, bad cops? Are you acting good or bad? ”

Jack was a little eager to take the plunge, and his mastery level psychology skills were finally put to use.

Angela shook her head: "We're not interrogating prisoners, we should be sympathetic cops and stupid cops, you play stupid." ”

After saying that, she took a bottle of mineral water and handed the folder in her hand to Jack.

"Hello, Mr. Christine, I'm sorry to trouble you to come to the police station again, Marilyn is she feeling better today?"

Angela handed over the mineral water in her hand with a concerned expression.

"Ah, thanks, we didn't sleep last night, Marilyn...... She...... Crying, you know...... What happened yesterday was a nightmare for her. ”

Matt Christine's eyes were still a little red and swollen, and although she was depressed, she looked very cooperative.

Angela looked apologetic and comforted: "Please mourn, it's just that according to the case handling process, we still have a few small problems, and then you can go home and continue to accompany her, I know that she must need you very much now." ”

Looking at Matt, who couldn't stop nodding and was a little absent-minded, Jack opened the folder with a businesslike face and began to ask.

"Jeff hadn't been taking prescription painkillers, and we found Oscandin in his room."

Matt explained with a somewhat helpless expression: "Last year he injured his knee, and the damn doctor prescribed this thing to him, after which he was addicted to drugs for a short time, and then I sent him for withdrawal. ”

"Malibu New Life Ring DU House? I heard that it is expensive there. ”

"Yes, but I think it's worth it."

Although he easily admitted it, and did not try to deny it, it was easy to see that he was trying to downplay it.

Jack nodded, then asked.

"So you don't know that Jeff didn't quit, do you?"

Matt's face showed shock and chagrin at the right time: "No, I don't know at all, he must have secretly hidden these pills." Damn, Marilyn and I didn't even find out. ”

Jack handed over a photograph of a fleshy face.

"Ah, sorry, I think I got the wrong picture."

He hurriedly rummaged through the files, but found nothing.

"This man's name is Bruno Winch, and this is what we looked like when we found him yesterday, and this is another case, but we found out that he was also a patient at the Malibu New Life Drug Rehabilitation Center, and we are preparing to investigate the connection between the two."

Matt looked at the photo and was stunned, then reacted and hurriedly asked, "What does this person have to do with my family's illegal break-in?" Is it related to Jeff? ”

Jack looked open-mouthed, and said with a big grin: "That's the case, the robbery and murder department threw this case to us yesterday, as if we weren't busy enough, but we found out during the investigation that this person had stayed in the same ring as Jeff."

So we suspect that both cases are related to controlled drugs, and the other party may have come to Jeff, and then went to find this Bruno, do you know this person? ”

Matt hurriedly denied, "No, I don't know, is this person dead?" ”

Jack shrugged his shoulders and replied heartlessly, "Not dead, but it's different from dead, the doctor said that even if he was saved, he would only be a vegetative person." ”

Seeing a hint of relief flashing in Matt's eyes, Jack and Angela looked at each other silently, and their hearts were clear.

Then Angela glared at Jack impatiently: "Go back to this picture of Bruno, let Mr. Christine carefully identify it, if you can't find a connection, this case will be handed back to a robbery and murder department, we don't have time to wipe their butts." ”

Watching Jack burst out of the inquiry room like a burning ass, Angela said apologetically.

"I'm very sorry Mr. Christine, he is just a newcomer who has only been in the company for half a year, although the young man is very motivated, but it is inevitable that he will ......"

Matt returned to his usual absent-minded appearance, but nodded indifferently.

It was a long time before Jack returned with a normal photo, and Matt again denied seeing the Bruno in the photograph and left.

Looking at Matt Christine's slightly rickety back when he left, Jack's heart suddenly lost the joy of discovering the truth, because he found that this unfortunate man, compared with yesterday, actually had half of his hair gray overnight.
