"Female journalists?"

The words coming from the phone made Luo An frown slightly.

It's not because the vinegar in Mona's tone is very strong, he can smell it from so far away.

It's that Luo An has rarely been in contact with the media for so long, and the number of times can be counted on both hands.

Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, Luo An waved his hand and motioned for Ryder to take someone to deal with the washing machine, stepped aside himself, and asked:

"What's that female reporter's name? Which media's? ”

In the office area, Mona glanced at the beautiful woman sitting on a chair in the rest area not far away, with a graceful figure and a body exuding intellectuality, rolled her eyes quietly, and said:

"She said her name was Louise and she was from [The New York Times]."

"Louise?"

Luo An's eyes narrowed slightly:

"She's not going to call Louise Lane, is she? Superman's girlfriend? ”

"You've read a lot of comics, this female journalist's surname is Hernandez, and her full name is Louise Hernandez."

Mona was a little speechless, and then asked:

"When are you coming back?"

"The operation is not completely over, and there will be no going back for a while."

Luo An didn't talk nonsense, and said directly:

"I don't accept interviews, you help me reject that female reporter."

“OK。”

After a brief chat, the two hung up the phone together, Mona put down the phone, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and when she coughed lightly, she instantly became expressionless, turned around and walked to the rest area, her tone was not cold:

"I'm sorry, Miss Louise, our investigation team is working on a case, and for reasons of caution and other reasons, Team Leader Greenwood is temporarily unavailable for interviews."

The female reporter Louise raised her eyebrows, put down the coffee cup and stood up, looked at Mona in front of her, and asked with a smile:

"So, when does Team Greenwood have time?"

Looking at the woman in front of her with a standard fox face and a chest larger than herself, Mona's mind was full of alarm bells.

But the expression on her face did not change, and Mona replied in a faint voice:

"I'm sorry, I can't answer that question.

When you have time, Team Leader Greenwood will contact you. ”

“OK。”

Louise, a female reporter, chuckled, took a business card out of her handbag and handed it to Mona, before leaving the office.

Looking at the pale gold business card in her hand, with black name, occupation and other information printed on it, and a faint perfume smell, Mona snorted coldly and returned to her seat.

Mona felt a little uncomfortable, but she was a measured woman, and her business card was not thrown into the trash, but just pressed under the coffee pot next to her.

At the same time, in the distant villa, several agents from the trace laboratory were removing the washing machine from under the kitchen cabinet, and the kitchen floor was full of parts.

Soon, the washing machine was taken out from under the cabinet by the agents of the trace examination department, and Ryder looked at the large object in front of him and looked at Luo An speechlessly:

"The SUV we drove here has nowhere to pull it, should we call a tow truck?"

"No, the washing machine doesn't matter."

Luo An smiled, and under Ryder's puzzled gaze, he walked to the back of the drum washing machine in front of him, took a screwdriver in the hand of the agent in the trace examination department, and quickly opened the filter of the washing machine.

Wearing gloves, putting the black stuff in the filter into the evidence bag, and then putting the filter itself into another evidence bag, Luo An returned the screwdriver to the agent in the trace examination department, and grinned at Ryder:

"That's the most important piece of evidence."

The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning, in an interrogation room in an office in New York.

This time, the interrogation room was different, except for Roan and Chenelle on either side of the interrogation table, and on the opposite chair sat Edern-Crane, the suspect who was captured by Lacey last night.

Sitting next to him was a white man in a suit and leather shoes with eyes who looked to be in his fifties, none other than the lawyer Ardern Crane had hired for himself.

"Hello, Lawyer Martin."

Luo An stretched out his hand to the lawyer opposite and said with a smile:

"I didn't expect to see you here."

Roan had previously met the Martin lawyer when he was taken by Vereneth to a dinner party of some dignitaries.

The other party has been working in the lawyer industry for decades, and his experience, connections, and abilities are very good, and he is the guest of many rich people and politicians.

Luo An had met with the other party but was not familiar with him, but he didn't expect Edern Crane to actually find him.

"Hello, Team Leader Greenwood."

Looking at Luo An's hand stretched out towards him, Lawyer Martin did not reach out to shake it, but just sat on the chair and nodded calmly, and then said directly:

"As Mr. Edern-Crane's lawyer at this trial, I have the right to answer some questions for him.

At the same time, there are some questions that we can refuse to answer. ”

"Of course."

The other party didn't shake hands with him, and Luo An smiled and didn't care.

Sitting back in his chair, he motioned for Chenier to start preparing the record, and then Roan opened the folder in his hand, first placed the photos of the twelve victims in front of Ardern Crane, and asked:

"Mr. Crane, do you know these women?"

Glancing at the photo, Edern-Crane's eyes moved slightly, and instead of answering immediately, he looked at Lawyer Martin next to him.

Lawyer Martin coughed lightly and said:

"My client has the right to refuse to answer this question."

Chenelle frowned, and Roan, who had been staring at Ardern Crane, smiled, took out a few pieces of paper from the folder, and put them on the interrogation table:

"This is the car whereabouts of Aubrey Crane, Mr. Crane, and his wife, whom my agents found last night.

Records show that at 9 p.m. on February 28, the car left the villa where you were living and headed for a street on the west side of Long Island.

The car stopped near the street for 40 minutes and then headed for a road on the side of Long Island, New York.

Mr. Crane, may I ask you, who drove the car that night? ”

Crane looked at the lawyer, who whispered a few words in his ear, and Crane nodded and replied:

"It's me."

Luo An then asked:

"What are you driving for?"

Ardern Crane spreads his hands:

"Go and do some personal business."

"Could you please be specific?"

"I'm sorry, Team Leader Greenwood."

Martin interrupted Roan's question again:

"My client has the right to refuse to answer your question."

Luo An raised his eyebrows and leaned back:

"That's not interesting, Attorney Martin."

"It's not uninteresting."

Lawyer Martin smiled:

"It's federal law, and federal law gives me the rights that my client has."

Luo An asked rhetorically:

"Federal law likewise makes it a felony to deceive federal agents."

"My client did not deceive federal agents."

Lawyer Martin said calmly:

"We are just legal and refuse to answer some questions in order to protect the privacy of my client."

"OK, I respect federal law."

Luo An put down the folder and asked:

"So, what questions can Mr. Crane answer? Lawyer Martin, you give me a list. ”

"I'm sorry, it's not my responsibility."

In the interrogation room, Luo An and Lawyer Martin had a verbal battle, and the words between you and me were very intense, and Crane next to him was stunned for a moment, not understanding who was being interrogated.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the interrogation room, and Mona opened the door and walked in, gave Edern-Crane a cold look, and handed a black document to Roan.

Opening the file, the smile on Roan's face became more and more sunny, and he turned his gaze to Ardern Crane and asked:

"Mr. Crane, you've been an eye-opener for me."
