Chapter 791 [The Case of Cut Throat Footprints and Already Dead]

"One more thing."

Trick Kennedy put down his glass, stood up and walked to the bookcase next to him, found a folder and handed it to Luo An, and said helplessly:

"Mr. Ferdinand, the deputy director of our FBI Washington headquarters, sent me a case today and asked me to send someone to investigate it.

There are many investigation teams in the Washington headquarters, but you, Luo An, are the only team leader I trust."

Trick Kennedy actually didn't want to take this case. He had been the director of the Internal Threat Office before. He had many subordinates, but not many of them could handle such cases.

But he had just taken over Mr. Clement's position, and he pushed away the first case, saying that he was powerless. It was really unreasonable, so Trick Kennedy had to take this case.

Trick Kennedy had carefully read the case file before, and felt that this case was quite complicated. He was a little worried that Luo An didn't want to take it over.

So while Roan was checking the contents of the file, Trick Kennedy added in a low voice:

"As the new year begins, the FBI Washington headquarters has begun to calculate and prepare for the case-handling expenses of each department this year.

The person in charge of calculating the expenses is Deputy Director Ferdinand."

Roan's eyes moved slightly, he put down the folder, looked up and asked:

"Sir, is there a time requirement for investigating and solving this case?

In addition, when is the deadline for calculating the case-handling expenses?"

"This case does not stipulate that it must be solved within a certain time frame."

Trick Kennedy raised his mouth, patted Roan on the shoulder, and smiled:

"As for the deadline for the budget calculation, there is still one and a half months left."

"OK."

Roan smiled slightly, closed the folder, and began to chat with Trick Kennedy about the charity dinner.

After the dinner, Roan and Mona drove away together. They took a day off on Sunday. On Monday morning, the two drove to the "Insomnia Building" not far from the Washington headquarters.

In the office area of ​​the special investigation team, Michelle and Winslow arrived first, followed by Roan and Mona, then Chenier, and Lacey arrived last.

"Good morning, everyone!"

Pushing the door and entering the office area, Lacey shouted loudly, and then distributed food to everyone with a smile:

"I just bought breakfast, let's eat together!"

Taking the hot chicken roll, Winslow's expression was quite surprised:

"What's going on? Lacey, are you getting married?"

In the past, every first day of work, Lacey walked into the office area crookedly as if her bones were pulled out, sat down on the chair listlessly, took a bag of food from others and ate a few bites, then found a more comfortable posture, and fell asleep on the table.

It was the first time that Winslow saw someone so energetic as today and even distributed the breakfast he bought to everyone.

Chenelle and Michelle were also a little surprised. Mona took the sandwich and rolled her eyes, then asked with a smile:

"Lacey, did you meet a beautiful new girl again?"

"No!"

After serving breakfast, Lacey crossed her hands on her chest, made a big X to Winslow and Mona, and then explained with a smile:

"I'm taking care of my body these days. Not only did I not go to bars and nightclubs, I also went to bed early and got up early, and learned yoga. My mental and physical state are much better than before."

"Wow."

Winslow, Chenelle and Michelle were very surprised, but taking care of the body is a good thing, and the three of them gave Lacey a thumbs up.

Lacey put her hands on her hips and was very proud. Mona, who knew Lacey's character better, noticed a problem in Lacey's words, so Mona narrowed her eyes and asked:

"Lacey, you said you were learning yoga. Who is your yoga teacher? Is it a man or a woman?"

"..."

The smile on Lacey's face froze. Chenier reacted instantly and said speechlessly:

"Are you looking for an opportunity to contact that female yoga teacher under the pretext of exercising and adjusting your health?"

Lacey smiled awkwardly, put down her hands on her hips, and said:

"That can't be said. I was indeed preparing to recuperate, and meeting that beautiful female yoga teacher... was just a beautiful accident."

Winslow, Michelle and Mona all rolled their eyes. When Chenelle was about to say something else, Roan pushed open the door of the team leader's office and walked out:

"Everyone, put aside the yoga teacher's work for a moment. We have a new case."

Everyone immediately perked up and took the folders Roan handed to them. After handing out the folders, Roan walked to the whiteboard at the front of the office area and introduced:

"This case happened in the early morning three days ago, on a road from Washington DC to New York State that needs to pass through a forest."

The detectives looked down at the case file, which showed that at 5:30 a.m. that day, a passerby found a Cadillac parked in the mud beside the road.

The passerby originally planned to approach the Cadillac and tell the driver that he could not park there.

But just as he approached the driver's seat of the Cadillac, a male corpse with a cut throat appeared in front of passers-by.

"The deceased is named Imre, 53 years old, the owner of a car rental company, has no children, no wife, and only a dog and two cats at home."

Luo An continued to introduce:

"A passer-by called the police, and the trace inspection department arrived at the scene of the crime and found that someone was sitting in the passenger seat of the Cadillac.

Based on the wound on the victim's throat and the way he exerted force, the murderer was the person in the passenger seat.

The trace inspection department was lucky to find a hair and fresh human skin fragments in the passenger seat.

The test results showed that they did come from the same person, and this person was most likely the murderer. "The murderer of the victim Imre."

"Hasn't this case been solved?"

Lacey spread her hands and asked in confusion:

"The murderer is the man in the passenger seat. The trace examination department has also obtained the other party's NDA. We can directly issue a wanted order and let the police in various places arrest him. Why do you want to hand over the case to us?"

"If only it were that simple."

Luo An threw a candy to Lacey, asked her to eat the candy and not talk, and then introduced:

"There are footprints of the man in the passenger seat in the mud at the crime scene.

The footprints are not big, but the traces are a bit messy, and they did not walk towards the road, but went straight He ran into the woods next to him.

The Trace Examination Department followed the footprints into the woods, and soon found traces of a struggle.

In addition to the footprints of the co-pilot, another person's footprints were also found at the scene of the fight. "

"The third person?"

Winslow's face was stern, and he asked:

"Who is the new guy?"

"I don't know, there are not many clues at the scene.

The Trace Examination Department finally concluded that the third person knocked down the person in the co-pilot seat, then carried him back to the road and drove away from the woods. "

Luo An posted all the photos of the crime scene on the whiteboard, turned back to look at the detectives, and was silent. Voice:

"During the investigation of the third party, the trace examination department found that the footprints left by the third party on the mud were exactly the same as those of the murderer in another case.

That case happened a month ago. The victim was named Leshas, ​​27 years old, working for a lobbying company in Washington, DC."

Chenelle's face darkened slightly and said:

"So, this is a serial murder case?"

"It's possible."

Roan nodded and turned his gaze to Mona. Mona turned on the computer to show everyone and said:

"The problem is that the FBI archive records show that this Leshas has been dead for 20 years."
