FBI branch in Las Vegas, a borrowed office.

At his desk, Michelle pointed to the red and black pages on his computer and said:

"Roan, I just found out that the employer who hired Ethel Jason to kidnap the female journalist Igilia is the same guy who hired Ethel Wang to go to your villa to find the cross in Washington, D.C."

"The same person?"

Michelle nodded, then tapped a few times on the keyboard to bring up another post, adding:

"Moreover, this employer is also on this underground crime website, posting a male model Paul Baker who is looking for someone to kidnap."

Winslow next to him grinned:

"It feels like this underworld crime site is really a gold mine."

Luo An thought for a moment and asked:

"Can you find out the identity of the employer who spent money to place the order on this website?"

"Sorry, I can't find it."

Michelle spread her hands, saying that she generally can't do this, and she may be more sure of Mona.

"Then let's take a look at this interrogation record first."

Roan's expression remained unchanged, and he took the information obtained from the interrogation of Ethel Jason from Chenelle, and said:

Ethev-Jason said that after he successfully kidnapped the female journalist Igilia that day, he took her to a certain highway in northwest Las Vegas at the request of his employer.

On that road, Ethoff Jason saw a black car.

A man wearing a mask got out of the car and took the female journalist Igilia to his black car.

In addition to the mask man, there was another man sitting in the back seat of the car, and Ethopher-Jason didn't see the other man's face clearly, only seeing that he was carrying a watch worth $400,000. ”

"A watch, $400,000?"

Hearing this number, Lacey's eyes widened and she was speechless, and Michelle was also a little incredulous:

"Ethelf-Jason, that guy read that right?"

"He didn't eat flour at the time, and his eyes and memory were fine, so he should be right.

And this employer places frequent orders on criminal websites, and it doesn't look like it's short of money. ”

Roan handed Michelle the location of the road and said:

"So, let's investigate next to see if there were any suspicious vehicles or suspicious people on the road on the night of the crime."

“OK！”

"No problem!"

Several people nodded in answer and returned to their seats to check the surveillance footage of the nearby area.

It didn't take long for Chenelle's side to make a discovery:

"Everyone! I found the car! ”

"Well done!"

The group immediately moved their chairs to Chenelle's side, and Chenelle pulled up a surveillance video to the computer room, explaining:

"This is the surveillance video from outside a gas station near the highway.

Shortly after the deal that Essel Jason said ended, the black car appeared in this surveillance. ”

Looking at the jet-black sedan flashing in the corner of the surveillance video, Luo An asked:

"Can you find out who the owner is?"

"It's a car attached to a real estate company."

Without waiting for Cheniele to answer, Michelle took the lead in bringing up the situation behind the car

Soon, a photo of a white man with short blond hair, a high nose, deep-set eye sockets, and a particularly pronounced sense of mixed race appeared on her computer:

"Hamid Hogan, 46 years old, the owner behind the real estate company, additionally ......"

Michelle crackled a few times on the keyboard and played a video in front of everyone:

"This is the scene of Hamid Hogan's interview with a media outlet eight months ago."

In the video, Hamid Hogan sits in a chair in a suit, unhurried in the face of the host's questions, smiling and talking eloquently, trumpeting that federal housing prices will not fall and will only rise in the past decade.

As he spoke, Hamid Hogan would wobble his hands from time to time.

Among these movements, the golden watch on his left wrist stands out unusually well.

"Wow."

Lacey's eyes lit up and she said:

"Even though I didn't recognize the watch, I could tell at a glance that it was definitely worth a lot."

"You're right."

Chenelle, who was next to her, tapped the keyboard a few times and quickly called up the information of this watch:

"A certain commemorative watch from Casio costs $499,990, and there are only 28 pieces in the world."

Everyone present was silent for a moment, Winslow looked at Hamid Hogan's net worth of nearly 100 million assets on the computer screen, and asked with some confusion:

"So, what contradiction does this Hamid Hogan have with Councillor Shemol and President Lucill?

not only killed the two and their bodyguards, but before that, they also sent people to kidnap the female journalist Igilia who had a relationship with the two, and the male model Paul Baker? ”

Michelle, Lacey, and Chenille frowned, unable to figure out why Hamid Hogan did it.

Luo An picked up a folder from his desk and said with a smile:

"Guys, that's probably why."

Several people turned their heads to look at Luo An in unison, Luo An didn't sell it, opened the folder and sent the paper inside to everyone, explaining:

"Remember when I said before that I had found some connections between Councilor Shemol and President Lucille, in addition to his brother and sister?

This connection is that one of them is a politician and the other is a businessman. ”

Lacey and Winslow didn't quite understand what Roan meant, but Chenelle and Michelle were in good spirits and thought of something:

"Roan, you mean ......?"

"That's right, it's **collusion."

Luo An nodded, said the not-so-nice word, and then explained:

"I've found out before that Congressman Shemore has a good reputation in Nevada because he has built a lot of cheap houses for the people at the bottom, as well as places to provide accommodation and food for the homeless.

But in addition, Senator Shemol also proposed the construction of a number of high-end residential buildings, parks, entertainment venues and other facilities.

Before the news spread, when the facility had not been built and even the land was deserted, that land would always be bought by President Lucill's real estate company, isn't it a coincidence? ”

Winslow and Lacey nodded abruptly, understanding the situation described by Ann:

The elder brother determined the area to be developed, and the younger sister took the first step to buy the land, and when the news was announced, the land price doubled and it was easy to make money.

"Guys, I've figured out why Hamid Hogan killed people."

Next to Michelle, he tapped on the keyboard a few times and explained:

According to the FBI's internal database, four months ago, Hamid Hogan spent $300 million to buy a piece of land on the corner of a city in Nevada from a company.

Inside information indicates that the Nevada state government intends to develop that area into a new business and tourist area.

A month ago, the address of the development area was announced, and the result was another area of another city.

Hamid Hogan tried his best to buy the land, and all the money spent was wasted. ”

"Tut-tut......"

Winslow and Chenelle shook their heads repeatedly, and Lacey smiled disdainfully and asked:

"Was the land bought by Lucille's company one step ahead of schedule for the announced development area?"

"More than that."

Michelle tapped the keyboard a few times and added:

"The FBI's internal database shows that the useless land that Hamid Hogan bought for 300 million dollars, the owner of the company to which he originally belonged, is actually Lucille Krista behind it."

After reading the information on the computer, Lacey sneered again and again:

"Sell the land that is actually useless to Hamid Hogan and let him take over.

Then use the money from him to buy the right land to be developed, and sit on the land price to appreciate.

Lucille Krista is a woman who eats two fish and eats, and she is really ruthless. ”

"Otherwise, how could she have been fighting Rexa O'Dell for so long."

Roan smiled, before Lucille Krista died, the entire Nevada, and even nearby California, Arizona, etc., the business industry was by her and Rexa.

The story behind it belongs to a dog-bit-dog mouthful, but people still have to catch it, and Luo An patted Lacey on the shoulder:

"Go and apply for a search warrant and an arrest warrant."

"Wait a minute!"

Lacey was just about to get up, but Michelle stopped her first, handed the computer to Luo An, and said solemnly:

"Before I acted, I thought this information was important."
