Chapter 483 Too Cruel
"Listen, I already know what's going on!"
Antonio spread his hands and continued:
"You want to protect your family, and there's nothing wrong with that."
"But there are some things you can tell us and it won't be so complicated."
"Don't worry, Justin is not involved."
Antonio looked outside: "Catalanno suddenly killed someone, he was just frightened."
"In that case, Justin had to help him transport the body."
"After being a policeman for so many years, I believe your son is telling the truth."
Antonio stood up again: "I pretend these photos don't exist, and I don't know Justin appeared at the scene."
"I want to study other cases. You can handle the rest by yourself."
The meaning is clear, Justin's involvement is not deep.
Just helping transport the body.
Antonio made his choice and decided to let Justin go.
"Thanks!"
Hank's voice was unusually hoarse and he held out his hand to Antonio.
If Antonio really wants to pursue the case, he will definitely be fine, but Justin will have to squat for several months no matter what.
This time, Antonio chose to stand with him and tell him about the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was a big favor.
"Um!"
Antonio thanked him, shook hands with Hank, and walked out of the Sheriff's Office.
When he walked out, everyone looked at him.
No matter what, this intelligence team is a big family.
Colleagues may be close or distant, but no one wants any disagreements to break out, which would be harmful to everyone.
Seeing that the two of them were getting along well and no quarrel broke out in the office, everyone looked happy.
Eileen, in particular, breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after, Hank walked out of the office, and he had returned to his usual appearance.
Passing by Erin's desk, Hank stopped.
"He's in the interrogation room."
Erin raised her head and said softly.
Hank said nothing, stretched out his hand to rub her head, and then walked towards the interrogation room.
He came to Ethan and took the car keys on the table.
"Ping Pong."
The sound of chopping could be heard from the Bluetooth headset.
Ethan was commanding the Nords to fight bloody battles in Skyrim Province. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Hank was walking down the stairs with Justin in his arms.
After all, it was his child, so it was normal to be nervous.
Justin has to thank himself for having a good father. If it had been someone else, it would have been really difficult for him to escape unscathed.
The matter was settled and he didn't take it to heart anymore.
His attention returned to the screen again. In Ximu Town, an old hen was walking slowly, and Ethan was about to move his fingers.
The hand rises and the sword falls.
The next moment, the Nords were running for their lives.
"Is this how you earn overtime?"
I don't know when, Eileen walked next to him.
She looked at the game screen on the computer and stuffed potato chips into her mouth.
"What is the problem?"
Ethan is confident that if he doesn’t fish for work, what’s the point?
"Let's go, stop playing."
Erin tapped the table: "I don't want to go to dinner alone today."
"All right!"
Ethan looked up and found that the sky had darkened and there were only two or three people left in the office.
After going out for dinner with Erin, we returned to the intelligence team.
It's not because of the overtime pay of three melons and two dates, but mainly because I want to know the latest progress of the matter.
The murder case is still in the hands of the intelligence team.
Any latest news will be notified here.
"I packed something for you."
Ethan walked up to Antonio and put the take-out meal on his table: "You haven't had dinner yet."
"ah!"
Antonio quickly took out his wallet: "I'll give you how much."
"This is not AA!"
Ethan held on to his action of taking out the money: "Don't take today's matter to heart, we all know you are doing it for work."
He hadn't been in a good mood since he came out of Hank's office.
Seems a little taciturn.
"Then I'm not welcome!"
Antonio understood what he meant and picked up the lunch box with a smile.
Not long after returning to his seat, Gene hurried up the stairs: "Hey, guys, a body was found in the lake, and we suspect it is Catalano!"
Hearing this, Antonio turned his head sharply and looked blankly at the empty Sheriff's Office.
His eyes were confused, wondering if he had done something wrong.
"I've already informed Hank."
Gene continued: "The address is near the pier, if you want to take a look."
"knew."
Antonio gritted his teeth and stood up quickly.
The others followed and walked downstairs.
Gene's pace slowed down a bit, and when Ethan walked up to him, he immediately whispered: "About the video this afternoon."
"What video?"
Ethan looked blank.
"It's no use just deleting it." Jean smiled and shook his head:
"Don't worry, I have cleared the underlying data."
Ethan smiled hoarsely and bumped fists with Gene.
The convoy of the intelligence team stopped at the lakeshore, where blue lights flashed and several police cars parked.
Hank's Cadillac was parked not far away.
A series of door closing sounds sounded, and everyone walked forward, where a circle of people had already gathered.
Ethan wrapped up his clothes and walked to the lake embankment.
There were several marine police boats parked outside, swaying slightly with the lake.
There was nothing unusual here, he squeezed into the crowd.
Catalano's eyes were wide open and his skin was pale.
Antonio next to him cast suspicious glances at Hank from time to time.
The sound of brakes sounded again, and soon, a middle-aged white woman in a black coat pushed through the crowd and walked in.
"Is this Catalano?"
Extreme anger could be heard in her tone.
He already looked menopausal, but now he looked angry and even more ugly.
"Gradishar!"
Hank crossed his arms and stared at her disdainfully: "You know, people like him have many enemies."
"This case has no choice but to be shelved."
Ethan immediately realized that the middle-aged woman in front of him should be the Ministry of Internal Affairs official who was causing trouble for Hank.
"what have you found?"
Gradishar looked at the forensic doctor squatting next to the body and said in a cold tone:
"Anything useful."
"Nothing has been found yet." The forensic doctor used a pen to carefully examine the nasal cavity and oral cavity of the corpse:
"Preliminary judgment shows that the deceased did not die of drowning."
"After the murderer killed him, he threw him into the lake. This should not be a dumping point."
After determining the approximate time of death, he slid the tip of the pen around the corpse's neck.
Antonio was secretly relieved when he heard the time of death.
At that time, Hank was still in the police station, so this was not something he did.
"Finally." The forensic doctor's hand with disposable gloves pressed back and forth on Catalano's neck:
"The murderer's method of killing was very cruel."
"In my opinion, he was hit from the Adam's apple with a sledgehammer!"
"Most of the neck was smashed."
"Hiss~"
Everyone at the scene took a breath. This was the first time they encountered this kind of killing method.
Ethan scratched his face and spread his hands:
"These gang members are so cruel. They can do this kind of thing. It's terrible."
"That's right!"
"incredible."
The people around him nodded and agreed with his statement.
Hank gritted his teeth tightly and complained crazily in his mind, this bastard will either behead him or give him a sledgehammer.
The key is that he looked calm afterwards.
It’s really like the waves behind Lake Michigan push the waves ahead, and each wave is higher than the last.
