Seeing her like that, Ethan let out a heavy breath.

But compared to before.

Rebecca's face can be regarded as regaining a hint of rosiness.

"Don't worry, she's fine."

Burgess tugged at his hand and pulled Ethan down, "You must not have eaten either, let's go together." ”

I packed it with a few portions of pasta.

It smelled fragrant, but Ethan tasted a little tasteless.

Burgess also felt that he should not have a simple relationship with the woman inside, but he didn't bother to ask, and there were some things that she didn't want to pick out, and she thought it was good like that.

"Go back!"

It was already eight o'clock in the evening after eating, and Ethan threw the lunch box into the trash and waved to the two.

"No, you don't."

Roman hurriedly refused: "Sheriff Morgan, this is the least we can do." ”

"Go back and get some rest."

Ethan couldn't deny it: "You've been busy all day, go back early and rest, I'll just be here." ”

At his urging, the two had no choice but to leave.

Adjusting the position of the pistol, Ethan sat firmly on the bench, carefully guarded.

I don't know who Rebecca provoked.

There is no guarantee that the gunman will find the hospital, before she is discharged.

We have to guard against it here.

"Buzz~~~"

In the empty corridor of the hospital in the early morning, the mobile phone vibrated slightly, and this movement was particularly obvious.

Boitt's name flashed across the screen.

There is also a time display on it.

At five o'clock in the morning, a call actually came at this time.

Ethan frowned and pressed answer: "Is there any emergency?" ”

"I know you're in the hospital."

As soon as the phone was connected, Hank's voice sounded hoarsely: "But there is a vicious case next to the Trump Building, and the intelligence team has nothing to do, maybe you can go over with Erin to have a look." ”

"I've called her to let her know."

"No problem."

The words of refusal came to his lips, and Ethan instantly changed his tone: "Wait for me to find two patrol officers to come and watch, and set off in a while." ”

I can't let the guys in the intelligence team sit idle, this time is to take over the case, let their attention be diverted, call at five o'clock in the morning, presumably also find something amazing.

They don't have any regular working hours.

Even though it was early in the morning, there was no room for restraint when it was time to go out.

Near Trump Tower.

On the street in the early hours of the morning, a black Cadillac SUV roared up and stopped near the side of the road.

Soon.

The Ford Interceptor also rushed over.

Two men in woolen coats, one black and one gray, got out of the car one after another, and the badge hanging on their chests shone silver.

The two soon got together.

More than 3,000 dollars a piece of clothing, wearing a very decent body.

Both of them looked a little sassy.

A little out of place, it is the hamburger in your hand, and the yellow mustard in it is at risk of spilling on your clothes at any time.

So Erin behaved very carefully.

"Please."

The female detective was still a little confused, and stuck out her tongue to lick the mustard sauce from the corner of her mouth: "Don't buy me such expensive clothes, it's not convenient to handle the case, and it will be stained with blood at any time." ”

"If you can't wash it off, throw it away."

Ethan took a big bite of the burger and took another sip of hot coffee: "It's just clothes, I'll buy you ten more to change, and Nadia will make up for her." ”

Following the direction pointed out by the patrolman, he strode forward.

The footsteps next to him stopped.

Turning around, Erin squinted at herself, and said with an unkind expression: "Is it because of the woman yesterday morning, out of guilt?" ”

"Huh?"

Ethan was puzzled for a while: "Why do you think that I am guilty?" ”

This righteous appearance almost missed Irene's waist.

"I want twenty, I want a hundred."

She gritted her teeth and stepped forward quickly, kicking her with a kick: "I'm going to fill my apartment and make you pop out of a woman for no reason." ”

"Whew~"

Ethan let out a very cooperative cry of pain.

Laughing and making trouble, the two of them became sober and walked down the steps in the early morning air, and there were already people on the other side of the canal doing pre-run warm-up exercises.

"Damn it."

Erin raised her head, her eyes shining with starlight: "I will never get tired of seeing this kind of beauty, I feel that I am really small." ”

All around, there are high-rise buildings.

Although it is already this point, the buildings are still lit up like torches.

"No, you're not small at all."

Ethan squinted as he drank his coffee and said, "I've felt it, you're great!! ”

"Shet."

Another heavy kick, this time it's not like just playing false, but it's a real one.

Jump forward and meet the fire chief in front.

"Hello."

Shrugging at the tall curly-haired man, he took another bite of the burger: "I'm Sergeant Morgan of the Intelligence Unit of the 21st Precinct, I'm sorry, it's not convenient to shake your hand." ”

"It's okay."

The curly-haired man in a dark blue down jacket waved his hand: "Everyone is the same, eat something when you have time." ”

They do firefighting, and they also work day and night.

"That's right!"

Ethan sighed and nodded, "What did you find?" ”

The Chicago Fire Department is not only active on the ground, but red fireboats, large and small, also patrol the dense waterways to respond to any search and rescue situation that may be required.

Next to the river, there is a fireboat and a yacht.

"The people at the yacht club are going out to the lake to fish."

Captain Curly led the two of them forward: "They cast their nets in the river to catch some live bait, and when they caught this thing, they almost fainted. ”

"That's right."

He looked back at the two of them and waved his fingers: "Although understandable, I don't think this is the time to eat." ”

Hearing this, Erin put away the burger very interestingly.

Ethan chewed on the burger in his mouth, indicating that he didn't care at all.

"Okay."

Captain Curly smiled, bent down to lift the plastic sheet covering the floor, and looked at the young sheriff expectantly.

The head.

It's just the head.

Although it has become puffy, the skin on his face is extremely pale.

The flesh is also broken.

But it can be vaguely seen that this woman should have been very good before her death, and her golden hair was covered on her face like aquatic plants.

"Hmm."

Ethan snorted coldly and bit the hamburger nonchalantly: "One thing can be determined, this is definitely an unnatural death." ”

This extremely calm performance made Captain Curly a little disappointed.

"Tell the truth."

He pursed his lips and shook his head, "We fish up floating corpses from the river every few months, but it's extremely rare to see anything like this, and I don't know what happened to this poor girl." ”

"Lend me a flashlight."

Erin, who was pale, took the large flashlight in the other party's hand and shone it carefully on the head: "The teeth are all there, maybe we can lock the identity of the victim through the dentist's records." ”

"Look here."

Ethan was keenly aware of an anomaly, and picked up a nearby branch to gently pull the hair from the head.

A circular wound appeared in front of several of them. (End of chapter)
