Chapter 375: Los Angeles XC District, Sewers
Five minutes ago, Special Investigation Team, Office Area.
After listening to Mona's account of the clues of the twelve disciples of Jesus, Lacey suddenly realized:
So, the murderer behind this case is actually a believer in the "devil worship" who wants to turn his soul into a devil after death? β
Anwar and Patricia showed a look of realization on their faces, and Luo An waved his hand and said:
It doesn't have to be a believer in the "devil worship," but it can be for the Christian church, Christians, Christ himself, and fundamentalists. β
Winslow, who was next to him, thought for a moment and added:
"It is also possible that a boy who was a Christian as a child but was hurt by a priest...... of people. β
ββ¦β¦β
Winslow's words quieted the air in the office area for a few seconds, and Roan glanced up at Winslow, then turned his chair to look at Michelle and asked:
"How long will it be before Cheanne and Cooper return?"
Michelle, who was in charge of contacting the two, put down the landline phone, raised his head and said with a serious face:
"Bad news, I can't reach the two of them anymore, and there's no answer on the other end of the phone."
βWhatοΌβ
Hearing this, the faces of the detectives suddenly sank, and Luo An quickly got up from his chair and walked up to Michelle and asked:
"Where were the two of them investigating the case before?"
"Los Angeles XC District."
Michelle replied quickly:
"Cooper said earlier that they had found a clue about Nicoshami in a hospital in that area."
When Luo An heard this, he immediately ordered loudly:
"Patricia, you use your landline phone to continue contacting Cooper and Cheanne.
Michelle, you check the surveillance in that area, looking for the SUV of our special investigation team.
Mona, see if you can use the computer to locate Annie and Cooper's current location through their phones! β
βOKοΌβ
"I'll position them."
Michelle and Patricia immediately got to work, and Mona opened her laptop and tapped on the keyboard.
At this moment, Lacey suddenly put down her phone and walked to Mona's side, pulled a piece of paper and wrote down a string of numbers, and said:
"I used to contact Michelle with Chelanne's work phone, this is Chelanne's private life phone, and now I can't get through, you try to use it to locate it."
Winslow, Anwar and Patricia, who had just joined the Special Investigation Team and didn't know much about Lacey's style, were surprised to see this.
Michelle and Roan's eyelids twitched, Mona's movements paused, and she asked in a low voice with a speechless face:
"When did you get your hands on this?"
"Just before I set out to investigate the clues."
Seeing the expressions of Luo An and the others, Lacey smiled:
"It's all teammates, and it's coming."
Luo An patted Lacey on the shoulder, and Lacey immediately put away the smile on her face and walked away from Mona, who immediately began to investigate according to the phone number.
On the other side, it didn't take long for Michelle to raise his hand and say loudly:
"I've found the SUV of the Special Investigation Team!"
Roan and the others immediately approached Michelle's side, and the computer showed a picture of an intersection in the XC district of Los Angeles, not far from the Chenelle Cooper and Cooper Investigation Hospital.
Michelle rewinds the surveillance footage, which shows Cooper parking the car at the intersection, then running out of the car with Chenelle and sprinting into an alley not far away.
"Lacey, Anwar, Winslow, get all the gear and go here with me to investigate!"
After watching the surveillance video, Luo An immediately strode towards the equipment depot, and at the same time ordered loudly:
"The others stayed with the Special Investigation Team and continued to locate Chenellle and Cooper!"
"Understood!"
"No problem!"
ββββ
Because of the urgency of the matter, the intersection where Cheanne and Cooper disappeared was a bit far from the FBI Los Angeles branch building, so Roan took the other three to the same SUV this time.
The first thing Lacey did when she got into the passenger seat of the SUV was to fasten her seatbelt firmly, Anwar and Winslow were a little puzzled when they saw this, but they looked at each other and fastened their seatbelts as well.
The next second, the strong push back sensation startled the two of them, and with a piercing sound of tires rubbing against the ground, the SUV left the parking lot and drove onto the road, and then the car rushed forward like a black lightning bolt.
Looking out the window at the rapidly receding scenery, Anwar swallowed, his colleague had never driven so fast when he was in a hurry in the work of the counter-terrorism department.
Winslow's expression remained unchanged, and he continued to carefully check the situation of the gun and ammunition, but looking at his uncontrollable and rapid breathing, it was obvious that his mood was not as calm as it appeared.
Halfway through, Lacey's mobile phone rang suddenly, pressed the answer button, and Mona's voice came from the other end of the phone:
"I've used Chenelle's personal phone to locate the location, it's not far from the intersection in the surveillance, and it should be the alley on the map.
I just sent a message to Chenelle and haven't gotten a reply yet. β
"Well done."
Luo An nodded in satisfaction, twisted the steering wheel, and the SUV immediately drove towards the store that Mona had mentioned.
Three minutes later, the SUV arrived at the designated location, and Roan and Lacey got out of the car, pulled out their weapons, approached the old SUV parked at the intersection, and did a brief search without finding any clues.
Anwar and Winslow had already walked to the alley with their weapons, and Roan and Lacey left the old SUV, and the four of them slowly entered the alley with their weapons in hand.
The alley was littered with garbage, and as the four of them walked into the depths, it was even more messy than the others, but there was a lot less garbage on the ground, and there were still a lot of blood stains on the walls.
After briefly scanning the surroundings, Anwar frowned:
"Cheanne and Cooper should have encountered an emergency, and there is more than one person on the other side."
Winslow, who was next to him, nodded and added:
"Most likely, Cooper and Cheanne entered the place after chasing a man, and then were ambushed.
The two fought with the enemy, but they did not fight the group, and were controlled and taken away by the enemy. β
Hearing this, Lacey held her weapon and frowned.
Cooper and Cheanne were both unusually skilled, and they also carried guns, if they were captured by the enemy, how many enemies were there, and how powerful were those people?
Luo An was noncommittal about the analysis of the two, carefully scanned the garbage around him, saw a piece of newspaper, his eyes lit up, he bent down to pick up the newspaper, and there was a mobile phone lying quietly under the newspaper.
On the other side, Anwar and Winslow quickly figured out a way for the enemy to get out of the alley based on their previous experience:
A sewer covered in garbage.
Looking at the sewer manhole cover that was pulled open by the two, an indescribable smell came to her face, and the corners of Lacey's mouth opened and looked up at Anwar and Winslow:
"Are you sure it's here?"
"Sure."
Anwar nodded again and again and explained:
"Both Cheniele and Cooper have worked in the FBI for a while, and if there's a bunch of people in the alley, they don't rush in.
The only explanation is the sudden appearance of the enemy, which is some distance from the entrances and exits on both sides of the alley, and the emergence and encirclement of them from two sewers is the most likely scenario. β
Winslow pointed to the edge of the sewer and added:
"And the edge of this sewer mouth is very clean, and there is very little dust and mud compared to other places, so there must have been people coming in and out of here many times, or many people coming in and out of this place quickly."
"I know everything......
After listening to the words of the two, and then smelling the peculiar smell coming slowly, Lacey, who is a female biological sex, jumped her eyelids, and turned her head to look at Luo An, who was fiddling with her mobile phone not far away.
