Chapter 55 Moving to a New Home, the First Murder Case
The two thanked Millie and left the police station together.
The police station will give them three days to deal with all the trivial matters, and then they will officially go to work.
Because the serious crime team is too busy, once they are officially working, it will be very troublesome to deal with trivial matters, so they are given such loose time.
The two of them did not delay, and drove the car to visit seven or eight candidate locations in the afternoon. In the end, they chose two apartments and one apartment not far from the Western District Police Station.
The biggest advantage here is that it is clean, there are no huge traffic and crowds around, and a small street is also on the back of the apartment, which is very quiet.
The apartment is a little old, but it's clean and tidy. The two bedrooms are very small, about ten square meters. The living room is not big, about 20 square meters, and the total is only more than 50 square meters.
However, the price is not high, and it is still cheap for two people to rent together.
After signing the lease contract, even if the two of them officially moved in here, Lu Ke and two people moved things from the car.
The trunk and rear seats are full of stuff, most of which are Selena's.
Lu Ke didn't understand a little. When he came to the serious crime team, he estimated that he had to wear formal clothes every day. Why did Selena bring so many clothes and shoes?
Selena could only roll her eyes at such a stupid question: "Please, we are in the serious crime unit. Most of the time, we don't need to wear police uniforms when handling cases, OK? Then why can't I dress better? Won't wear a hot pants suspender to work."
Lu Ke was speechless.
He brought a few simple sets of clothes with him, adding up to a suitcase.
Selena has five in total. It is said that she managed to reduce it to a size that she managed to reduce to. At the earliest, there were eight boxes, and most of them were estimated to be her beautiful clothes.
After moving things, Lu Ke and the two were not in the mood to go out immediately, so they called directly to order takeout.
After eating this fast food, the two rested for a while before going out to the supermarket again.
There are only a few basic appliances in the apartment, and all kinds of small bits and pieces still have to be bought by yourself.
Lu Ke doesn't need a lot of things, but Selena lacks a lot of things.
While shopping, Selena looked at the price tags on the goods with a painful face: "Just this one, my salary for a week will be gone."
Lu Ke could only laugh.
He can't always say he pays the bill, can he?
If he dared to say that, Selena would definitely think that he wanted to hook up with her, or that it was a formal relationship.
Otherwise, why do you pay for the daily necessities of other girls?
See, there are even women's band-aids in the shopping cart. Except for boyfriends and husbands, how many men will help women buy such orders?
After returning, the two did not continue to clean up, but just took their belongings back to the room, and washed and went to sleep.
The next morning, the two went to work on time.
When we arrived at the bureau, there were already several detectives in the hall of the serious crime team, some who arrived early, and some who stayed up all night last night.
Seeing the two come in, only two people nodded to greet them.
There was still half an hour before work, and Berwick also came.
Seeing the two arriving early and full of energy, he was still satisfied.
Seeing the big from the small, these two are at least not the kind of maverick thorns, and this situation is more obvious to the more capable people.
Like a few old fritters in his group, other than the bottom line of the police, other small rules are too lazy to abide by.
Of course, this is also related to the work of the serious crime team. They are often busy for days and nights without rest, and they cannot go to get off work on time like ordinary police officers.
He waved to the two of them and called them to the office.
He didn't talk nonsense when he went in. He was busier than any of his subordinates. After searching for a while on the table, he took out a file and threw it to Lu Ke: "This case belongs to you, report to me if there is any progress, if there is something that cannot be solved Find me again.
Is there a problem? "
Selena still wanted to see the dossier, but Lu Ke just smiled and said, "Yes, sir Berwick."
Berwick waved his hand: "Since you are working under me, just like everyone else, call me the boss. Go get busy!"
Lu Ke said yes and walked out. Selena followed suit and followed.
Berrick thought in his heart: Sure enough, the younger one is the head, and the five-year-old woman is actually a support.
However, this is also normal.
In contrast, among partners, men are more suitable to lead, and women are more suitable to assist. After all, women have many innate advantages and disadvantages, and they are very cheap in external communication, but they are insufficient in close combat and deterrence.
Hmm... But that kid seems too tender-faced, a little bit intimidating, right? Berrick suddenly thought of a question, but then gave up thinking.
He is the team leader, not the nanny. He can only solve this kind of problem by himself.
Lu Ke and the two returned to their desks, and after opening the file, Lu Ke sat down, and Selena leaned over to him, leaning on the armrest, tilting her head to watch together.
A woman was killed in an apartment building at 39 West 107a Street. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
The case was received yesterday, and it was the time when Lu Ke and the two came to report.
The manpower of the serious crime team has been tense. With two new subordinates, Berrick did not bother other people to handle the case, and directly handed the case to the two of them.
Lu Ke grabbed his shirt cover and covered his gun holster: "Let's go, go to the scene to see."
Don't wait for the autopsy report. The forensic department in such a big city is very busy. There is no one to urge a case. It is normal for the results to be delayed for a month or two. It is not unusual for the report to be issued after half a year and a year.
What? Isn't that how it's played on TV?
Sorry, in reality, less than 5% of the cases solved by the US police relying on the forensics department.
Most of the time, the police are still doing things, and the forensic department only provides evidence to support the case.
In most cases, if the police cannot find a suspect for a period of time, it can only be classified as an old case.
Until the day when the criminal commits the crime again and then confesses the case committed before, this kind of old case will only come to light one day.
The two of Lu Ke went to the garage and drove into a police station car.
The members of the serious crime team have this treatment, but Lu Ke and the two have not been accepted by Berwick. They can't blatantly use the car for private use. It doesn't matter if they drive home occasionally.
The two got into the car, and it took more than 40 minutes to arrive at No. 39, 107a Street.
When entering, both of them were paying attention to the surrounding environment. Although it may not be helpful to the case, the police investigation is like finding a needle in a haystack. Many times, an unintentional detail may be the key to solving a case.
This is an old-fashioned apartment building that has been built for at least 30 years. The mottled walls and old doors and windows indicate that this is not a place where rich people live.
