Chapter 558: The Cross
The next day, at 10 a.m., in a hospital ward in Washington, D.C.
"Good morning, Mr. Ettewang."
Roan pushed the door open and walked into the room, grabbing a chair and sitting down, followed by Winslow, Chenelle, and Michelle.
"Here's the cost of your surgery, and the cost of your ambulance ride yesterday."
Luo An smiled and put the two bills on the hospital bed, which showed that the operation fee + hospitalization fee was more than 60,000 yuan, and the cost of the ambulance was not low, more than 3,000 US dollars.
“……”
Lying on the hospital bed, Etwang's eyelids jumped when he saw the numbers in the bill, and his eyes were full of killing intent towards Luo An.
Luo An didn't see it, poured himself a glass of water, took out the dark red metal card, and asked:
"Etwang, let's not waste time.
If you tell me all the information about the matter, I will help you apply for a cheaper hospital, and the deal is very reasonable, how about it? ”
“……”
The chest injury was beaten by Luo An, the ambulance was called by Luo An, and the hospital was also selected by Luo An.
The numbers on the bill are inseparable from Luo An, and now Luo An is still using this as a reason to make transactions with himself......
Etwang's eyes turned red again, he gritted his teeth and looked at Luo An, took a few deep breaths, and said:
"OK, yes."
In order to spend less money and not owe money, Etwang chose to swallow this breath.
“Good。”
Luo An smiled with satisfaction, took out his notes from behind, and asked:
"First question, what is this metal card?"
"Credentials."
Ettwang put the bill aside and replied:
"When you log in to an underground network, you need this credential."
"Underground sites?"
A strange color flashed in Luo An's eyes, and Michelle also remembered the previous case.
Opening Mona's laptop, Roan asks Ettwang to tell him the URL and his account password, and Michelle quickly logs in with a metal card.
"Sure enough, it's another crime site."
With a few simple taps on the keyboard, Michelle's face was filled with anger, and Winslow and Chenelle walked over to take a look and found that it was full of posts about various illegal activities.
Weapons, unique goods, human trafficking, human organs, photos of minors, and all kinds of crimes.
Seeing a post that advertised that they could customize the organs they needed for their customers as long as the price was sufficient, Winslow and Chenelle's faces suddenly became extremely ugly.
Suppressing the negative emotions in his heart, Luo An's expression remained unchanged, and then asked:
"So, you went to my villa to take an order on this website?"
"That's right!"
Without waiting for Etwang to reply, Michelle tapped the keyboard a few times, glared at Estwang angrily, and replied:
"This guy took an order the other day to go to your villa to find some cross.
In addition, this guy has also received several murder orders in the past! ”
In the face of Michelle's angry gaze, Etwang chuckled indifferently and said:
"Living in the Commonwealth, you always need to make money, don't you?"
When Winslow and the others heard this, their gaze at Etwang suddenly became extremely unkind, while Roan noticed another thing, frowned slightly, and asked:
"What cross?"
"It's a cross."
At the mention of this cross, Ettewang's face was also very unsightly:
"I saw a post the other day that someone was looking for a cross and doubted it was in your hands.
The other party is offering $5,000 and wants someone to come to your villa to find it.
If found, the owner of the post is willing to pay $30,000 for it. ”
At first, Estwang only thought that this was a not difficult theft, but when he found out Luo An's identity, he felt that it was a little tricky.
So later, he found the owner of the post, and contacted him by private message to increase the price to $10,000 before agreeing to go to Luo'an's villa to find out.
What Etwang didn't expect was that Luo An had set up so many things in the villa, and he met two ugly-looking guys in leather jackets who were going to shoot at him.
In order not to be killed by the two people opposite, Estwang had to shoot each other first.
Before Ettwang sneaked into the villa, he investigated Luo An's identity, and now that he was dead, he knew that Luo An would not give up, so he immediately drove home and started running.
"Cross ......"
Luo An's eyes moved slightly, guessed something, and before he could continue to ask, Winslow and Chenelle's expressions suddenly changed slightly, Michelle pointed to the laptop, frowned, and said:
"Ann, the owner of that post, sent a picture of that cross to Etwang, you can take a look."
Hearing this, Luo An did not get up, but asked rhetorically:
"Is it a cross with a dark red body, inlaid with silver trim on all sides, and held to the top by a black rope?"
Winslow and the three looked at each other and nodded.
“Fu-k!”
After receiving an affirmative reply, Luo An suddenly scolded in a low voice with an unhappy face, and ordered:
"Contact the people of the Krista family and ask what's going on!"
The Krista family, one of the local Las Vegas families.
The family's seventy-something, Mrs. Christa, is the real target of the murderer Hector Jamie (Chapter 454) in the previous [Family Villa Sleeping Death Case] (Chapter 441).
There has always been a legend that the Krista family has a treasure that is opened by combining a ruby ring that has been passed down from generation to generation by a cross.
The cross in Luo An's mouth is the cross in the family's legend.
Hector Jamie, the prisoner in that case, entered Christa's estate posing as a gardener, intending to steal the cross and ruby ring and find the treasure to make a fortune.
But unexpectedly, because of his handsomeness, he was targeted by Christa, who was in her seventies, and was also recommended by Christa to Pranne-Odell's eldest daughter-in-law, which eventually led to the villa tragedy.
Before that, Hector Jamie managed to steal the cross, but not the ruby ring.
In that case, he not only wanted to kill people to avenge his death, but also to get the ruby ring, and continued to find treasure and make a fortune.
Later, the murder was solved by Roan and others, and the cross was found in the basement of Hector Jamie's house, and the FBI kept it as physical evidence for a period of time before returning it to the Christa family.
“OK。”
Michelle nodded heavily and began to sit next to him typing on the keyboard.
Roan then interrogated Etwang and learned a lot of information from him, such as the fact that the dark red card underground website appeared much earlier than the criminal website that their special investigation team had discovered before.
"Ann, I found something."
Suddenly, Michelle's eyes moved slightly, sat down next to Luo An with his laptop, and said in a low voice:
"The murderer of that villa tragedy, Hector Jamie, died in prison the other day."
Winslow and Chenelle, who were on the side, also saw the information on the computer, and their faces suddenly changed slightly.
Luo An thought of something, frowned slightly, and then asked:
"What about the crosses and ruby rings of the Chrysta family?"
"They're all missing."
Michelle swallowed and lowered her voice:
"In addition, the current situation of the Krista family is very bad."
"Dead again?"
"Several died."
“……”
Luo An was speechless when he heard this, rubbed his temples, thought for a moment, and said:
"Contact local law enforcement in Las Vegas and ask briefly about the situation."
"Okay."
Michelle nodded in agreement, although she didn't know what happened to the Christa family, but now that the matter had gotten to Roan, she needed to ask about it.
The murderer who sneaked into the villa has been caught, and Roan hands over the follow-up work to Winslow and Chenelle.
During the lunch break, Roan took time out and drove back to the villa to check on Mona.
Mona's recovery is good, her face is not as pale as before, and her mental state is much better.
It was Caroline who kept urging Mona to drink hot water, so that not long after the two chatted, Mona needed to run to the bathroom.
Walking into the kitchen, Roan found that Caroline was not only boiling hot water for Mona, but also drinking cup after cup herself, and suddenly her face was full of doubts and asked:
"What are you doing here?"
"Healing, of course!"
Caroline put down the glass of water and wiped her mouth, and replied with a smile:
"Dongfang said that hot water can cure diseases, and this is true!
Mona was so uncomfortable before, but after drinking the pot of hot water you boiled, she immediately recovered a lot! ”
“……”
Luo An, who had quietly added some [Stamina Elixir] to that pot of hot water before, was very speechless, and opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
But it doesn't hurt to drink more hot water, and seeing Mona return to the room, Luo An also left the kitchen silently.
At this moment, Michelle suddenly sent a message to Roan:
"Team leader, someone wants to see you."
