Chapter 448: The Death of a Female Star (Please Collect, Recommend, and Vote for Me) First Update, Please Vote for Me!!
"The time of death is more than five days, and it is suspected of drug overdose. → However, pathological examination is still needed. We will return the body to the bureau later." A staff member of the forensic department made a test for Kai after conducting an on-site investigation. Simple reporting.
"Yeah." Kai looked at the messy house, frowned and nodded.
He was not dissatisfied with the police officers working on the scene. To be honest, the quality of the police officers in the West District was quite high, at least much better than most Chicago police officers. Maybe this is the temperament of the city. Chicago is a city that is fading day by day. The whole city reveals an ancient and even decadent temperament. No matter how much rhetoric is used, it cannot hide the fact that Chicago is declining.
Sometimes, cities are like people. When they grow old, everything becomes full of twilight. Even if many people hope to revitalize that city, they can only patch it up and cannot restore it to its former glory.
But Los Angeles is different. As the influence of Hollywood expands, this city is like young people gradually approaching adulthood. Everything is full of vitality and hope. Many people think that they are in this city. In cities, as long as you work hard, you will always have a chance to get ahead.
So in comparison, people's passion for work is relatively high. At least the police in Los Angeles are a little more dedicated than the police in Chicago. At least they really regard the police job as a job, rather than just dawdling around like many Chicago police officers.
The reason why Kai frowned was because the smell in the room was really unflattering. The temperature in Los Angeles has been a bit abnormal in recent days. It's already winter, but the temperature has reached an unusually high 30 degrees. Although there are no distinct seasons in Los Angeles, such high temperatures are also very abnormal.
In addition, the location of the house is good, the lighting is very good, and there is sunshine most of the day. This causes the body lying in the living room to decay and swell, forming a giant scene, and even suddenly ejects gas. The smell... is simply indescribable. , even a veteran detective like Kai, who has been at crime scenes for a long time, can't stand it.
"Find out the victim's relationship as soon as possible and notify her family."
Although Chloe, who was temporarily transferred to Kai's side, wanted to vomit several times, she still suppressed her nausea and silently wrote down Kai's request. Seeing her like this, Kai wanted to laugh. She reminded Kai of the first time he entered the scene. At that time, his master in the police force took him to the scene for the first time. It was a vendetta case and the case was not complicated. , it was actually a quarrel between two families. As a result, the male owner of one of them became more and more unconvinced. He drank again at night, so he sneaked into the other person's house with a knife in the middle of the night. After that...
Anyway, Kai was about the same as Chloe at that time, wanting to vomit but not daring to do so.
But his master didn't allow him to leave immediately, so he just kept him until the end. According to his master, this was training. Anyway, at that time, Kai always felt that his master had a smile on his lips when he said this. →
Now Kai probably understands the form of his master.
It’s so interesting to see the rookie’s awkward and scared expression!
It's also interesting to say that Chloe is obviously a veteran police officer, but she has very few opportunities to enter the scene, and even fewer opportunities to see a highly decomposed corpse like the Giant View. It can only be said that this girl was very well protected in the first half of her life.
…
When Kai returned to the police station, Chief Dustin called him over. He didn't say anything and just asked him to watch TV.
News about Elise's death is playing on TV.
The host on the TV was outside Elise's villa, using a very exaggerated expression to describe what happened in the house, but most of the content was nonsense. At the beginning, even Kai, the leader of the serious crime team, didn't know anything. According to insiders, these people... it's really a ghost.
Dustin seemed very talkative.
"Don't worry, reporters in Los Angeles...are completely different from those in Chicago. Their intelligence network is better than the police like me."
"It's nothing different. It's all just to attract attention." Kai laughed disdainfully.
"That's right." Dustin nodded, not paying attention to this, but said: "But the trouble they bring is much greater than Chicago. When they do this, our pressure will increase. As you can see, now It’s already on the news, so you should understand what the General Administration means.”
"Understood." But that's the same thing all over the world. If it attracts attention, the truth must be revealed as quickly as possible, otherwise those reporters will have something to say.
Dustin smiled. To be honest, he couldn't say he hated Kai's airborne landing, but he couldn't say he was happy either. After all, he is more optimistic about Dan, because strictly speaking, Dan is also his person. But now it seems that it is not a bad thing.
After all, an experienced head of the serious crime team is also a good thing for him as the director. Some things don't require much talking, they can be solved in just one step, saving worry and effort.
When Kai returned to the homicide unit, Chap was already waiting in his office.
"This is the information you asked for."
Chap threw over a whole stack of information.
Kai raised an eyebrow.
"so much?"
Chap took out a cigarette and gestured. Kai waved his hand, indicating that he was casual.
After lighting the cigarette, Chap took a nice puff and said: "Los Angeles is different from other places. There are no particularly big gangs. It is highly fragmented. There are many gangs but they are small in scale. Where am I now? This is just the West Side. of gangsters.”
Los Angeles is also the most exposed city in the United States. Because of this, there are rarely large-scale gangs like those in other big cities. After all, it is too high-profile here and too easy to be targeted. Whether it is the police or the FBI, they like to deal with those troublemakers who like to show off the most, because as long as they deal with one, it is a complete credit.
But don't underestimate the gangs in Los Angeles.
They are not large in scale, but they are more like the Italian Mafia in the early 20th century. They are based on families. They are not large in scale, but they are well organized, have strong confidentiality, and are ruthless. They rarely fight for territory like street thugs in other cities. Generally speaking, they like to solve problems in the dark - directly kill their opponents and throw them into the sea.
So the degree of cruelty is not low at all.
"Tsk... the temple is small and the demons are strong, and the water is shallow and there are many turtles." Kai sighed in Chinese.
"What?" Chap was confused.
"I just learned Chinese the day before yesterday. It means that there are so many gangs in this place." Kai explained.
"You know Chinese?" Chap looked admiring. He had a Chinese tattoo on his body, which was for his girlfriend. The meaning was probably from the heart, implying that his girlfriend was a goddess from his heart. It was a very beautiful tattoo. Chap spent several days learning this word. The word was called 'song'.
Well, it was 'cowardly'.
Fortunately, his tattoo was on his chest, otherwise Kai would probably laugh to death.
Fortunately, Chap was not interested in sharing such private things with Kai. He shook his head and said, "This is Los Angeles. It's too easy for gangs to make money. They don't need so many people."
Indeed, Los Angeles is much easier to get into than Chicago. Whether it is providing some illegal services to the upper class or setting up a few bars and nightclubs selling illegal drugs, you can make a lot of money. There is no need to do it on such a large scale.
The more people there are, the more people there are to share the money, right?
Kai nodded, without saying anything, just silently flipping through the information, and the room suddenly fell into silence.
Almost ten minutes passed.
Kai took out a dozen copies of the information and threw them in front of Chap.
"I've read your information and know what you did before. Now I ask you to do it again."
Chap was holding a cigarette in his mouth and was stunned for a moment.
"This..."
"Don't look at me like that. You are an old policeman, you should know that if we really follow the law, we can't beat those bastards, and this city will be finished sooner or later! I'm not here to talk nonsense with those inexplicable lawyers. Just be straightforward and send these most violent gangs to prison together. It's good for civilians and us!"
After Kai knew that he would be transferred, he learned about the serious crime team. Knowing why Chap has been wasting time until now, unlike Dan's too serious and serious, Chap's case handling methods have always been criticized, and he is used to using some crooked ways.
But the problem is that Kai is not the kind of person who follows the old ways. The chief architect of reform and opening up said it well: no matter whether the cat is black or white, it is a good cat if it catches the mouse!
Although Chap is not a white lotus, he has a bottom line. There is no perfect person in this world. But he always remembers that he is a policeman. Knowing your responsibilities is enough. Sometimes, a person's position can replace many things.
"In short, I have to find the handles of these gangs in the shortest time, and then... do you understand?"
"I understand." Chap smiled, his slightly opened lips revealing fangs, like a beast about to hunt.
"Do it cleanly." Kai nodded, so that Chap would not have too much fun, otherwise it would be boring except for disclosure.
"Leave it to me!"
Chap left Kai's office excitedly.
These days, the chaos in the underground world of Los Angeles has made the police department's top brass very unhappy, so Kai knew very well that even if he went a little too far, as long as he didn't disclose it, those people above would be very happy to turn a blind eye.
This is also the reason why Kai let Chap cross the line.
As soon as Chap went out, Dan, Chloe, and a forensic police officer came to Kai's office together.
Kai took out two cigars from the cigar box on the desk, threw one to Dan, and lit a cigar on his own. Chloe coughed subconsciously and fanned the front of her nose when she saw this.
Seeing this, Dan stopped lighting his cigar. Then he put away the cigar awkwardly.
But Kai ignored Chloe. Please! He is the leader!
Kai just looked at Dan with a very strange look, and Dan was a little embarrassed to sit up straight, lowering his head and playing with the cigar in his hand.
"Report the situation, Dan, you go first."
Dan returned to normal and began to report a series of work in great detail. It can be seen that Dan does lack management experience. His report is basically very detailed, even the expenditure of the serious crime team is reported.
Even if this thing is reported, there is no need to be so urgent. Besides, the expenditure of the serious crime team is not under the management of his serious crime team. The police station has financial management!
However, given his lack of experience, he did not interrupt.
It took more than half an hour for Dan to finish his report.
"Dan... Try to be brief in your reports in the future. I just need to know the situation. You can keep an eye on the specific things, but you don't need to report to me at any time." After saying that, Kai didn't say much. After all, it was understandable that he had no experience for the first time. "Let's talk about the case. After all, this is my first case since I came to Los Angeles."
"The deceased is called Elise. She is a female star who has only become popular in the past two years. She is only 21 years old this year. She entered the industry at the age of 16. At the age of 19, she starred in the special effects blockbuster movie "The Bravest" directed by the great director Bombshell. She became famous after taking off her clothes and was known for her sexiness. She is called the sexy goddess, but she has been in trouble recently. It seems that she said something wrong and made a lot of Jews excited. So now she is basically out of the public eye. It seems that she intends to avoid the limelight."
Chloe also talked about the background information of the deceased very seriously. This Elise is also young. Although the name of the Bravest is vulgar, it is indeed a big Hollywood IP. It is an animation IP developed by Hasbro, the largest toy manufacturer in the United States in the 1980s. It was originally intended to sell toys, but the animation was more popular than the toys, and it really drove the sales of toys. In short, it is a very big IP.
This is a series of movies. Elise has signed a contract for the trilogy, but she accidentally offended the director and a group of Jews before. She almost failed. The trilogy has nothing to do with her. The second part can be released, but she is destined to have few job opportunities in the future. Even if there are, it will not be a big cast. She can only sell her body in some third-rate and second-rate productions. Her future is worrying.
You must know that in Hollywood, Jews are the most influential group in Hollywood. If you offend them, even top stars will not have an easy time, let alone a sexy actress with only a figure and a face?
"She is from Montana. She has three brothers and two sisters. We have notified her parents. It is estimated that they will go to the police station tomorrow at noon. She had no criminal record before. Although her reputation in the circle is not very good, in fact, except for her love of talking nonsense, she has no bad deeds. It is common to offend people... but it should not reach the point of taking her life."
"What about the cause of death?" Kai looked at the forensic department.
"Overdose, but interestingly, we found some special substances in her body, which are different from the substances contained in all the drugs on the market now. As for whether her death is related to these substances, we don't know, and we need to do further experiments."
"Did you find any residual drugs in her house?"
"No... not even a trace of residue"
"Humph, it seems that there were people around her when she died!" The reason is very simple. For them, they are not like those poor drug addicts who have no money to buy drugs, so they naturally don't buy them one meal at a time. Now the traces of drugs in the house have been cleared.
