Chapter 27: 24 hours
"Judging from the current situation, if this serial murder case is not solved within 24 hours, Verenis's loss will definitely be very serious."
Luo An stood at the door of the team leader's office, saw Augustus in the office holding the phone with a solemn face and nodded frequently, and secretly thought:
"It shouldn't be possible to be dismissed directly, but I'm afraid that the No. 1 to No. 5 investigation teams in my hands will be handed over to the newly appointed Brossen......"
That's what Brossen is for.
Luo An had already guessed the cause and effect of the incident, but there were still some details that he hadn't figured out.
For example, Brosson has worked in the No. 1 investigation team for so many years, and must have accumulated a lot of contacts, and it is impossible for him to be put aside as an empty shelf after being promoted to the head of the team, and there will definitely be an investigation team assigned to him.
In that case, why would Brosson be so eager to make a move on Verenys?
...... In order to attack himself in the future, to avenge the kick he kicked his nephew?
The moment the idea came out, it was thrown into the trash by Luo An.
It's simply impossible.
It's just a nephew, not so valuable. During the casual conversation, Lacey once told Roan that she felt that Broson was more like a politician than like the head of the investigation team.
In the eyes of American politicians, some are tradable.
So what else is the reason? Luo An touched his chin and thought carefully.
Did Brosson and Verenes ever have a grudge before?
Thinking of this, Luo An's eyes lit up, it should be like this.
Otherwise, why didn't Brosson target the other group directors and just stare at Vereneth.
"It's just a serial murder case, and it has turned into a high-level game."
Luo An was a little speechless, but after thinking about it, can he get some benefits in this matter?
"Verenis is the head of the team, and it is impossible for her to solve the case herself."
Luo An lowered his head and thought, the more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became, and the more he felt that this matter was promising.
To solve the case, Vereneth must choose one of five investigative teams.
The No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 investigation teams have a mediocre rate of solving cases on weekdays, and it is purely difficult for a strongman to solve such a difficult incident as a serial murder case within the specified time.
Investigation Team 1 is Brossen's hometown, and Vereneth will definitely not be able to hand over the case to them, otherwise she will stick her neck out to the gangster with the knife.
Then all that was left was Investigation Team Five.
Moreover, the case itself was also made by their No. 5 investigation team, and it was not appropriate to throw the pot to others.
And Investigation Team 5 ...... can solve the case, and only Luo An can solve the case.
"Roan, come in."
Just as he looked down and pondered what to do next, the door to the team leader's office suddenly opened, and Augustus opened his mouth to call him in.
Sitting in his chair, Augustus' face was very serious, and the wrinkles on his head seemed to be able to trap flies.
Before he could speak, Verenis's voice immediately came from the phone:
"Luo An, I will hold a press conference in thirty minutes, and I want you to tell me immediately now, can this serial murder case be solved within 24 hours and catch the real culprit?"
If you asked, it wouldn't be possible.
Luo An raised his eyebrows, and just as he wanted to open his mouth to find a reason, Verenis's voice came from the phone again:
"If the case is successfully solved, I will contact my superiors to obtain a year's worth of special funds for your group."
This means that for the next year, each member of Investigation Group 5 will receive a significant monthly performance bonus.
The office was a little quiet, and Roan didn't answer, looking at Augustus.
The big-bellied black man was expressionless.
Augustus is very helpless now, in fact, he really wants to throw the case out, but except for the leader of the No. 1 investigation team, Brossen, he has a good relationship with the leaders of the No. 2, 3, and 4 investigation teams, and he doesn't want to ruin the relationship in the future because of this case.
And chose to solve the case, the No. 5 investigation team has just been established, and he is clear about the abilities of everyone in the group, and the only person who can count on solving the case is Luo An.
But within 24 hours, a serial murder case was solved...... Augustus had already begun to think about what he could do to make himself, and the others of Ann and Lacey, be punished a little less after the case failed.
Augustus didn't know what was going on in his mind, but when he saw the expressionless black face of the other party, he thought that Augustus was dissatisfied with Verenis's arrangement, and he muttered for a moment and wanted to speak, but Verenis's voice came again on the phone:
"Thirty minutes later, I'll issue a warrant for the serial killer with a $100,000 bounty."
$100,000?
Thinking of some clues in his mind, Luo An's eyes skyrocketed, and he assured with justice:
"Sir, rest assured, I will definitely catch the real murderer within the specified time!"
Augustus: "......"
---
On the other side, on Washington's road back to New York, a pitch-black sedan was speeding under bright street lights.
After reading the information in his hand, the corners of Brossen's mouth, who was wearing a black suit, hooked slightly, looked up and smiled at the driver who was driving:
"Matthews, that's a good job. By the way, how did you arrange that Joseph? ”
The driver, Matthews, was the leader of Investigation Team 1 in Investigation Team 1 and had been with Brosson for ten years.
From here, we can also see how thin the number of people in the No. 5 investigation team is, and there are several investigation teams in the No. 1 investigation team......
Now that Brosson has been promoted to team leader, Matthews will be the future head of the No. 1 investigation team, if nothing else.
Hearing Brosson's words, Matthews replied with a smile:
"That Joseph was a street reporter, and he was beaten up a lot because he was secretly filming news, so I promised him a temporary agent for a year after he was done."
It's just a temporary agent, and if something happens, it's not an agent, and it has nothing to do with the FBI.
And because of the content of the work, it is normal to disappear sometimes.
“Good。”
Broson nodded in satisfaction, and Matthews was relieved to do something, so he continued to ask:
"What's the situation with Investigation Team No. 5 now, is there an eyebrow for the serial murder case?"
"Not yet, sir."
Referring to Investigation Team Five, Matthews had a look of disdain on his face, and then explained:
"I learned from the Traces Department that the scene where the two victims were disassembled did not find any information related to the murderer except for half a fingerprint."
Brosson nodded, the difficulty of solving the case in this case skyrocketed several levels, especially since this was a serial murder case.
After thinking about it, Brosson asked again:
"Keep your men on the cues of Investigation Team Five, especially that Roan Greenwood."
With the exception of Roan, Brosson didn't think the rest of Investigation Team 5 had the ability to solve the case.
"I've already sent someone, sir, I'll know if the other party has any moves."
Matthews had a confident look on his face and said:
"As long as I am here, this case will never be solved within 24 hours!"
"Good!"
Brosson looked relieved, turned his head to look out the window, and began to guess what was on Vereneth's face when he snatched the five investigation teams from Vereneth 24 hours later when the serial murder case was not solved.
"It's going to be wonderful......
Brosson's eyes flickered as he muttered to himself.
