Chapter 641 Case closed
8pm, Green Tree Bar.
This is an open-air bar located in the suburbs. Different from traditional bars, the atmosphere here is quieter and suitable for chatting with friends.
"cheers!"
Members of the 1st and 2nd Squadrons of the Robbery and Murder Department toasted together.
The deputy team member put down his glass and looked around with some dissatisfaction, "Why did you choose this place? I'm more used to the Metzk Bar."
Jackson explained, "This is a newly opened bar, with 30% off all-you-can-drink drinks, which is a very good deal."
Xiao Hei looked around and said with a smile, "I like the environment here, the scenery is good, the venue is large, and there are many beauties."
"Yes, there are a lot of mosquitoes." The deputy's right hand slapped his left arm, and immediately there was a bloody mosquito specimen on his arm.
Jenny took out a small box from her bag and asked, "This repellent effect is good, do you want to try it?"
"No, that's for women. My skin is thick enough and mosquitoes can't bite it through." The deputy team leader shook his head and glanced around, "Red, aren't you coming today?"
Luke said, "He has an appointment today."
The deputy team member spread his hands and said, "If it's the Metzk Bar, he should show up."
Luke joked, "You're right, that's why I settled here."
"Haha..." Everyone laughed.
"You bad boys." The deputy team leader shook his head and also laughed.
Chen Kelin raised his glass and said, "It's a pleasure to work with you this time."
Luke also raised his glass and smiled, "It's not 'you', but us."
"Yes, we are a 'family'." Chen Kelin said to the people around him, "Cheers to us!"
"cheers!"
Everyone raised their glasses again.
The deputy put down his glass, smashed it, and said, "The whiskey here has a very unique taste." He thought about it carefully, "The burnt aroma is stronger, softer, and not bad."
Xiao Hei smiled and said, "So, you should be brave enough to try new things. If you go to a bar all day long, you will get tired of it no matter how good the wine is."
"Compared with the quality of the wine, I still think the drinking atmosphere is more important." After the deputy team member finished speaking, he seemed to have remembered something, "Guys, is it too early for us to start celebrating now?
Although Michael Kamara admitted to killing Galion Coffey and Blanche Crook, he still refused to admit that he was involved in the two murders 40 years ago.
Is there any way you can get him to talk?"
Chen Kelin said, "If according to Luke's inference, the two cases 40 years ago were exchange homicides, then Michael Kamara should be the real culprit in the Silver Cross case, and he was also found at the scene of the Silver Cross case.
of fingerprints.
But the problem is that forty years have passed since this case, and fingerprints at the scene alone cannot be used as evidence of conviction.
Deputy, you participated in the investigation of the Silver Cross case back then, so you have more say in this case."
The deputy team thought for a while, "If it is really an exchange of murders, then Wang Shaokang is probably another murderer. The victim of the Silver Cross case killed Wang Shaokang's mother with his car. He always wanted to avenge his mother.
Michael Kamara killed Wang Shaokang's enemy.
Wang Shaokang avenged Michael Kamara's sister and killed Burnett Coffey, the first chairman of Coffey Group.
Can I use Wang Shaokang as a breakthrough?"
Xiao Hei shrugged, "Wang Shaokang is now a very good lawyer.
It is a waste of time to ask him to admit to a murder committed thirty-nine years ago without direct evidence."
The deputy said, "Then give Michael Kamara an exoneration agreement. As long as he is willing to cooperate with the police, we can not pursue his crimes in the Silver Cross case and relieve his worries."
Luke said, "It's a good idea. You can try it, but I don't think there's much hope."
The deputy asked, "Why?"
Luke replied, "Looking at Michael Kamara's current comprehensive situation, there is not much difference between him admitting one homicide and admitting two homicides.
The reason why he refused to admit the Silver Cross case was more like protecting Wang Shaokang."
"You think the immunity agreement is not very effective." The deputy took a sip of whiskey and asked, "Then what good solution do you have?"
Luke pondered for a moment and then said with a smile, "There is a saying in China called 'cold salad'."
The deputy team member spread his hands, "What do you mean?"
Chen Kelin smiled and said, "Are you going to give up investigating two old cases?"
"Why not? We were assigned the task of investigating the murders of Gary Coffey and Blanche Crook.
We have caught the murderer and have completed our mission.
It is not our responsibility to solve two old cases from forty years ago.
Moreover, I personally don’t really want to investigate such a ‘controversial’ case.” Luke made this decision after careful consideration.
First of all, decades have passed since the two cases, and it is extremely difficult to detect them. Unless the suspect confesses, it will be difficult to find convicting evidence.
Secondly, these are two typical revenge cases.
Take the Silver Cross case as an example. The victim was a white boy who killed Wang Shaokang's mother with his car, but he was not punished by the law.
Wang Shaokang had no choice but to take revenge.
This kind of plot often appears in TV dramas.
A man who committed many evil deeds, committed adultery and robbery was killed. The murderer was probably a good man. Should the police arrest the murderer?
From a legal perspective, the police must catch the murderer in order to maintain judicial justice.
But from a human perspective, when the police arrest the murderer, it is tantamount to avenging the evildoer, and there is no distinction between right and wrong.
For the sake of judicial justice, most film and television dramas will eventually allow the police to catch the murderer.
In theory this is no problem.
But it can make people very frustrated, and some people may even point their fingers at the police and scold them, saying that you didn’t catch the bad guys, but you caught the good people who were upholding justice.
Luke was also disgusted by similar situations.
These two old cases have a bit of that flavor, so why would Luke take the initiative to take on such a thankless dirty job?
He is not the kind of person who would deny his relatives for the sake of so-called judicial justice.
As for the case of Michael Kamara killing Gary Coffey and Blanche Crook, the nature is completely different.
…
Saturday, early morning.
Robert yawned and walked out of the bedroom. He made a cup of coffee and walked to the window. The warm sunshine shone on him, "Praise to Los Angeles, it's another beautiful day."
Robert turned to the second floor and shouted, "Val, get up."
no respond.
"Hey, cool boy, don't make me kick you out of bed.
You know I'm an impatient person."
Val's dissatisfied voice came from upstairs, "Dad, let me sleep in, please."
"You've slept long enough, it's time to go to the supermarket."
"I told you, I don't have to go to work today, I'm on vacation."
"I know, so I asked you to drive to the supermarket to buy some ingredients. Don't forget what day it is."
A few minutes later, Val walked down the stairs, stroking his messy hair, "Yeah, of course I remember, today is family dinner day.
Why not schedule it in the evening, but lunch?”
Robert spread his hands and said, "This is Linda's idea. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell her face to face when you see her later."
Val was a little discouraged. He didn't want to offend the two bosses at once, "I'm not dissatisfied, I'm just asking."
"OK, now you know the answer, hurry up and make breakfast. After breakfast, we will go to the supermarket."
"Why am I making breakfast?"
"Because this is my home, if you have any objections, you can move out."
Val immediately cheered up, "No, I have no objection.
I'd love to make you breakfast. I love you, Dad, and you know it."
"That's right, my son who is about to become a homeless man, I love you too."
Val forced a smile and said, "Haha, Dad, you really know how to joke."
Robert smiled, "As long as you like it.
Don’t overcook the eggs.”
