Chapter 307 Catching Turtles(1/2)
Xiao Hei shrugged, "The car is just a means of transportation, I don't care at all.
But she must be a rich person to be able to ride such an expensive bicycle, and she is probably the new target of the robbers.
Who is she?"
"Good question, we need to find her before the robbers take action." Luke sent a driving recorder video to the chat group to brainstorm the woman's identity.
In fact, it is not difficult to find this woman. There are road signs in the video. It only takes some time to determine the woman's community and then verify her identity.
But what the police have to do now is to race against time. Every minute late, the other party will be in more danger.
Fame and wealth are not separate things. Since this woman is rich, she probably has a certain degree of fame. Luke hopes that someone will know her.
If no one knows you, you can only determine where the other person lives based on the environment in the video, and then check their identity.
As for using the face recognition database, this depends on luck. It is not very reliable and can only be used as an auxiliary means.
Not long after, Jenny came over and said, "Captain, I seem to know the woman in the video."
"Your friend?"
"I wish I had a friend like that, but obviously not.
Her name is Muriel Baldini, she is a very famous female entrepreneur in Los Angeles, she has appeared on many magazine covers, and she has a very personal personality.
Advocate for gender equality and call for environmental protection to reduce tail gas emissions;
She is approachable and does not have a separate office in the company, a nanny at home, or even a bodyguard or driver.
She is very rich and very independent."
Xiao Hei asked, "She publicly said that she has no bodyguards?"
"Yes."
"Oh, no wonder I became the target of robbers, and that damn bicycle is actually more expensive than my car. It's so pretentious.
Is she a vegetarian?"
Jenny shrugged, "I can't remember clearly, but you can ask her in person."
"No, I don't really like dealing with people like her." Xiao Hei has already labeled her in his heart.
Jenny shook her head and laughed, "Then Muriel Baldini will be very, very sorry."
The little gangster said, "You'd better not tell her, I don't like to see women cry."
Luke ignored the two of them and first contacted Matthew to ask him to investigate Muriel Baldini's information in the police system. At the same time, he also searched for information about the other party on the Internet.
As Jenny said, this woman is a rich man and wears sportswear and rides a bicycle to work every day, and the photo is very similar to the video in the driving recorder.
It is basically certain that she is the new target of the robbers.
Luke's first priority now is not catching the robbers, but the safety of his new target.
The fact that the robber is not at home is a bad omen, indicating that the robber may have already taken action.
Luke guessed there were four possibilities.
The first possibility is that the robbers have already taken action and have even successfully kidnapped Muriel Baldini, but the police don't know yet. This is also the worst situation.
The second possibility is that the robbers are committing a crime. If you contact Muriel Baldini rashly at this time, it is likely to cause accidents to her, and she may even be silenced by the robbers.
The third possibility is that the robbers are still planning and preparing, but have not officially implemented the kidnapping operation. This possibility is the most beneficial to the police, who can make arrests.
The fourth possibility is that the robbers gave up their action and absconded. This situation will be very difficult for the police.
Different situations require different methods.
After some discussion, Jenny volunteered to go to Muriel Baldini's house to investigate the situation.
Matthew also found the detailed information of Muriel Baldini and determined her home address.
…
Stringer Community.
This is a high-end community with a beautiful environment, well-built houses and yards, and a variety of luxury cars at the entrance of the garage.
A black Mercedes-Benz G drove into the community, Luke drove, Jenny sat in the passenger seat, and Xiao Hei sat in the back seat.
Luke rarely drives a Mercedes-Benz on missions. Firstly, he is reluctant to leave it and is worried about scratches. More importantly, it is irritating.
But this time the situation is different. In this high-end community where luxury cars are everywhere, Luke's Mercedes-Benz G will not attract people's attention. If he really drives a Ford SUV, it will be eye-catching.
The car parked next to a luxurious villa. The villa was very beautifully built and there were some flowers planted in the yard. This was Muriel Baldini's home.
By this time, it was getting dark and the lights were on in the villa.
Turning on the light is a good sign.
Luke parked the car, turned around and asked, "Jenny, are you ready?"
"certainly."
"Very good. If you encounter an abnormal situation, call for support immediately."
"I understand." Jenny took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, and got out of the car with a stack of information.
Marcus suggested, "Captain, do you want me to get out of the car and hide in the yard to support you?"
Luke thought for a while, "It's not necessary for the moment. Jenny is just going to investigate. If there are too many people there, it will be easier to be exposed."
While talking, Jenny walked to the door and pressed the doorbell, "Ding dong..."
After a while, the visual access control rang, "Who are you?"
"Is this Madame Muriel Baldini?"
"it's me."
"My name is Jenny Ravens, and I am the new Community Relations Commissioner, who officially took office today.
I know you, I’ve seen your magazine interview, and I know you’re a busy man, so I’m going to come over tonight and listen to your opinions on the community.”
After a while, the door opened, and a blond white woman stood at the door, tall and wearing casual home clothes.
"Can I call you Jenny?"
"Of course, although this is our first meeting, I have read many reports about you. You are an amazing woman."
"Thank you. I'm glad to see you too. Can you tell me what new plans the community has in the near future?"
"Can you stand up? I'm not used to talking to people through the door."
"Sorry, I ignored it." Muriel Baldini walked outside the door.
Jenny looked at her and found nothing unusual, "Is there anyone else in your family?"
"No, why do you ask?"
"Sorry, Ms. Baldini, I just lied."
"What does it mean?"
"I'm not the community relations committee member." Jenny showed her police badge, "I'm a Los Angeles police officer."
"police?
What happened? Why did you come to my house pretending to be a community relations committee member?”
"Things are complicated, so I'll keep it short.
We are investigating a group of robbers with a criminal record. In the driving recorder video of one of the robbers, we found that they have been following you some time ago.
We suspect that you may be the robber's next target, so let me confirm your safety."
"You mean someone wants to kidnap me."
"Yes, have you found anyone suspicious recently?"
"No, I rarely pay attention to this aspect. The security in our community has always been very good. God, this is terrible.
What should I do? Will your police protect me?"
"Don't be nervous, this is just the police's speculation, and the robbers may not necessarily take action.
In addition, the police will protect you secretly, and I hope you will pay more attention to yourself."
"You're right. I was quite negligent in this regard in the past. I will pay attention to it."
"But don't act too abnormal. If the robbers see through it, they will probably be alert."
"I understand, thank you very much.
Where are your people? I want to pour you some cups of coffee."
"Thank you for your kindness, but the robbers may also be observing secretly. My colleagues will protect you secretly, which will be better."
"OK, after I catch the robber, I will definitely go to the police station to thank him personally."
"Close the doors and windows. This is my business card. If you need anything, call me anytime." Jenny handed the other party a business card and then left the house.
"Thank you." Muriel Baldini shouted at Jenny's back, turned around and returned to the house.
