Los Angeles Detective Chapter 36

  Chapter 36 Whereabouts

   Two hours later.

  Marcus came to support with four state troopers.

   At six o'clock in the afternoon, Susan rushed to the scene with the survey personnel.

   "David, Luke, Marcus, good job, hard work."

  David said, "Captain, according to Dave's description, we speculate that the time Steven abandoned the car should be yesterday evening, almost twenty-four hours ago.

  The longer the delay, the greater the possibility of him escaping. Should we send the police to search? "

  Susan looked at the vast Gobi, "Where do you think Steven will go? Is there any other means of transportation?"

  Luke thought for a while, "Dave was locked in the trunk, and he didn't know about Steven's situation. We checked the surrounding traces and found no obvious ruts or footprints."

David spat out the sand that he blew into his mouth, "The wind and sand here are too strong, and the traces of 24 hours ago have been buried or blown away by the wind and sand. I guess Steven should be prepared, such as a small motorcycle, He might have gone to Mexico."

   Luke agreed, "I agree with David, it is too difficult to get out of the Gobi alive without transportation. In addition, Steven now has 40,000 US dollars, which is enough for him to escape anywhere."

  Susan asked, "You also think he will go to Mexico?"

  Luke is still a little unfamiliar with the situation around Los Angeles, shaking his head, "I don't know for sure, he may flee to Mexico, or he may do the opposite and secretly return to Los Angeles to hide."

   "I see." After listening to their description, Susan probably had a decision in her mind.

   Half an hour later, the three of Luke withdrew from the Gobi Desert and returned to Los Angeles to rest.

  The on-site survey personnel have set up night lights around, and it is estimated that the survey will take all night.

  Susan, Raymond, and Jenny stayed in the Gobi to search for Steven's whereabouts with many patrolmen.

  The complex situation in Gobi has brought many difficulties to the search work, but considering that Steven has been absconded for 24 hours, the police have no more time to delay and must search overnight.

   A dimly lit basement.

  The basement area is not big, only more than 20 square meters, and there is a wall lamp on the headboard of the wooden bed.

  A woman with long blond hair curled up beside the wall lamp, her body trembling slightly, and she murmured, "Woo...why did you do this to me? Why did you arrest me? Let me out."

  Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, accompanied by a man's voice, "Alyssa, I'm back. No one can separate us this time, you only belong to me."

  Hearing this voice, the woman's body trembled even more, and she shouted helplessly, "No, don't come here, please..."

  Saturday afternoon.

  Susan returned to the Robbery and Murder Department in a busy schedule.

   Without taking a break, they directly called everyone to the conference room for a meeting.

  Susan cut to the chase, "The area around the Mercedes-Benz has been searched for several kilometers, but Steven has not been hunted down. Do you have any new clues?"

  The deputy team said, "Judging from the blood stains in the store, Alisa may have been in an accident, but her body was not found in the store.

   If you want to transport a corpse, you must need a vehicle. I suspect that Steven should have an unknown vehicle.

  He may use this vehicle to commit crimes, or even escape.

  I suggest calling three surveillance cameras around the crime scene to compare suspicious vehicles that have appeared around.

  As long as the car can be found, Steven can be tracked down. "

  Susan nodded, "That's a good idea, what other ideas do you have?"

  Luke cleared his throat, "I've been analyzing Steven's motives last night.

  I remember the first time I met Steven, he said he wanted to open a small shop and do some small business.

  At the time, I thought he was being perfunctory, but now that I think about it, he might be telling the truth.

  Steven rented the shop on February 11 and wanted to surprise his wife, which shows that the relationship between the couple was fine at that time.

  The first taser robbery occurred on February 18. Although the victim was not Alisa, judging from her age and physical characteristics, the victim was obviously a substitute for Alisa.

  It shows that during this period of time, the relationship between Steven and Alisa has undergone tremendous changes.

   At this time, I have to mention one person—Harry, the drag racing party.

  Harry had a conflict with Alisa at the club, secretly took photos of Alisa dancing, and put the photos at Alisa's house.

  Steven saw the photo.

   is likely to be the fuse of the taser gun robbery. "

  Susan thought for a while, "There is basically no problem with this speculation, but renting a store requires 15,000 US dollars, which is not a small sum. Where did Steven get the money?"

  Luke replied, "I also thought of this point, which shows that Steven has other financial channels. The reason why he concealed it from his wife may be that this financial channel is not visible.

   This reminds me of Tony Will.

  Tony Will also has other sources of income.

  In addition, the modified Taser gun was bought by Tony Will, but this gun is being used by Steven.

  Indirect proof that the two are related.

  Although I don't know their source of income, I can make a bold assumption that they probably have other criminal records. "

   "very good." Susan was very satisfied with Luke's analysis.

   Seeing Luke's performance, Marcus was not to be outdone, "Uh... I have already contacted my gang friends and asked them to help find Steven's whereabouts. I believe there will be news soon."

   "Good." Susan nodded, leaning on the table with both hands,

   "Our task now is to hunt down Steven and Tony, as long as we find their whereabouts, the case will be revealed.

   Let's split up. "

  After the meeting, Luke went to Matthew to ask for information about Tony Will.

  Everyone is looking for Steven, there is not much if there is more of him, and there is not much if there is one less.

   Simply change the target to find, maybe there will be new discoveries.

  The key to finding Tony is to find out Tony's true identity twenty years ago.

  People are social animals, and it is difficult to cut off contact with relatives and friends.

   Seeing Tony in the past twenty years is likely to still have contacts with former relatives and friends, such as the rich man who often went to see him.

   Another example is the wife and children he mentioned.

   It's just that the time span is a bit long, and it's not easy to find clues about their meeting.

   At three o'clock in the afternoon, Alisa's parents came to the Robbery and Murder Department to ask about the progress of the case investigation.

  White and his wife lost their anger when they learned that their daughter had danced away, and only hoped that their daughter would return safely.

  Ms. White's low sobs made the atmosphere in the office a little depressing.

  Luke went downstairs to get some air, and Marcus staggered to follow.

  Xiao Hei threw him a cigarette and said with a smile, "Luke, how is your talk with that pretty girl going?"

  Luke lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said helplessly, "It's okay, she still asked me to meet yesterday, but because of the hunt for Steven, I can only make an appointment another day."

   "Hey buddy, would you like me to teach you a few tricks and keep them handy."

  Luke shook his head and laughed, "You'd better keep it for yourself."

   "I was dumped by that girl, don't say I didn't help you." Marcus touched Luke with his shoulder, and said mysteriously, "I also have a new goal. Do you want to compare who will get it first?"

  Luke responded directly with his middle finger.

  A white BMW X5 drove into the police station and stopped in a parking space not far away. A man in a suit and leather shoes got out of the car.

  Xiao Hei gave a smirk, "Luke, do you smell a smell of urine, hehe..."
