Chapter 69 The Manor
“The reporter is the female victim’s husband, Hans Miller.
The date of the report was August 7. He returned home and found that his wife and children had disappeared.
The Los Angeles County Public Security Bureau launched an investigation. According to neighbors, the three victims were seen during the day on August 6. It was speculated that the three victims disappeared on the night of the 6th.
On the evening of August 6, neighbors saw the driver, Cole Davis, entering and exiting the estate. He was the last person to have contact with the victim.
The police have been trying to talk to him, but they have never found his whereabouts."
David asked, "Is the victim's husband a suspect?"
Deputy Director Reid said, "We initially suspected the victim's husband, but he had a solid alibi. And even if he wanted to kill his wife, there was no reason to kill the child.
If it hadn't been for his insistence, this case probably wouldn't have alerted the FBI, and the Los Angeles Police Department wouldn't have gotten involved.
If the county police department hadn't delayed the initial investigation, this case might not have been unsolved that year."
Luke asked, "Why did the county police department delay the investigation? Is it human reason or lack of ability?"
"As far as I know, there are two aspects. The victim's husband failed in business, the couple had relationship problems, and they were separated. After the county police eliminated the husband's suspicion, they thought the wife had run away from home and did not go for robbery or kidnapping.
aspects to consider.
It wasn’t until the victim’s husband used his connections to ask the FBI to intervene in the investigation.”
Marcus shrugged, "Wow, so he's a good husband."
"The victim obviously didn't think so," Reed said.
Marcus said, "At least he is a good father."
"I have read the file. How do you want to investigate next? I want to hear your plan.
Come on, don't be stingy about expressing yourself." Rhett looked at the crowd and saw that no one took the initiative to speak, and said,
"Deputy team, you are the first person to think of this case. What do you think?"
"It's better to give young people some opportunities." The deputy team waved his hand, "Luke, you say."
Luke thought for a moment, "Twenty years ago, both the FBI and the Los Angeles Police Department were involved in the investigation.
There is definitely no problem with the ability. If there is no detection, it can only be said that there are too few clues.
Our advantage now is that we have found new clues. Only by making good use of these new clues can we clarify the case.
I personally feel that the most important discovery among the new clues is not the vehicle and the victim's bones, nor the discovery of Cole's traces, because these situations were speculated twenty years ago, but there is no evidence to confirm them.
The really valuable clues are Tony and Lawn."
Luke paused and continued, "These two people have not been investigated before. No one knows what role they played in the case. I think that finding out the situation of these two people involved is likely to improve the investigation of the case."
to breakthrough progress.”
Rhett nodded, "We also guessed that Cole had accomplices, but we never found out their identities. The investigation of these two people is indeed critical."
Everyone discussed it at the meeting and finally decided on the direction of the investigation.
Cole Davis is wanted.
Looking for Lawn.
Investigate Tony's situation.
Make new records for those involved in the case...
It’s been a busy day.
After get off work, Luke returned to the Eno community to teach the little fat man wrestling.
The little fat guy was quite resilient. He grinned even after being thrown and didn't even cry out in pain. However, he did a lot of damage to the lawn and was scolded by his mother.
Luke ran away.
The little fat man was miserable.
…
The next morning.
Lawn's family and other people involved in the case came to the police station one after another to take notes, but no valuable clues were found.
Susan called Luke and David to the office and got straight to the point, "The investigation in Los Angeles has not made much progress. Cole and Lawn are currently missing.
I want to send you to the victim’s hometown of Heim City to investigate, what do you think?”
David nodded, "Heim City is the place of disappearance and Cole's hometown. It is indeed necessary to re-investigate."
Luke answered the question unreasonably, "Where is the victim's husband? Why didn't he come to identify the body?"
"We called his previous mobile phone number but couldn't reach him." Susan responded and asked, "Are you changing the subject?"
"No, I just want to ask clearly."
"Then I'll take it as your consent and go back early to clean up today. I wish you a safe journey tomorrow.
Close the office door, thank you."
…
Inside a black Dodge car.
Luke and David set out on the road to the city of Heim.
David complained, "Why am I driving again?"
Luke took a pen and wrote in a notebook, "I'm writing an investigation plan for Heim City. Do you want to switch with me?"
"tell me the story."
"First of all, let's go to Telson Manor for on-the-spot investigation. We might be able to make new discoveries."
"Come on, it's been twenty years, you're too optimistic."
"How about you make the plan?" Luke handed over the pen.
"You keep talking."
"Tony is also from Heim City, so we may be able to find more clues about him." Luke rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "If you have time, you can also try the local delicacy 'Kuta'."
David shook his head, "What are you thinking about? We are here to investigate the case."
"The deputy team has always been obsessed with this kind of food. If you have time, why not try it? You have to learn to live, not live. You really don't look like a Los Angeles person."
David curled his lips, "You are right, I will consider going to New York for development if I have the opportunity."
…
The Los Angeles Police Department is about a two-hour drive from Heim.
The city of Heim is said to be a city, but more like a small town.
It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived.
Citizens live relatively dispersedly, and various commercial facilities are available in the city center. The two of them drove around the city center.
The car stopped in front of a restaurant called ‘Golden Corral’.
Luke was already hungry.
The restaurant is about 100 square meters, with a few tables of customers sitting here and there.
A white woman in an apron came over and handed David a menu, "What can we eat?"
Luke asked, "Is there a Kuta here?"
"You've come to the right place, but this dish is only available at night."
It sounded a bit like domestic skewers, and Luke was a little more looking forward to it.
The two of them each ordered a burrito and a cold drink.
Burritos are easy to make, quick to serve, and not too unpalatable.
It’s a relatively safe dish. If you don’t know what to eat, just order this.
After finishing the meal, many customers in the store also left.
Luke asked the white aunt to pay the bill, and in addition to paying for the meal, he also gave her ten dollars for consumption.
"Wow, you are such a generous gentleman." The white aunt was a little surprised that Luke's tip was higher than the meal price.
"Ma'am, I'm from out of town, can I talk to you?"
"OK." Almost all the customers around had left, and the white aunt sat down on the stool next to her.
The obesity rate in the United States is extremely high, which is also related to the way we eat.
"Do you know where Tellson Manor is?"
"Are you also here to investigate the haunting of Tyerson Manor?"
"Haunted?"
"Yeah, it was an unknown place. Something bad happened 20 years ago. People often heard crying sounds in the manor."
"What's unknown?"
