Chapter 41 Suspect’s Death

 Seeing the slightly confused look in his boss's eyes, Eddie knew that they did not understand technology, so he had to continue to explain: "The entrance to the dark web is something called onion routing.

This thing is actually a navigation software, which can store all dark web websites in it. This is also an important factor why the US officials cracked down on it many times.

But the most incredible thing is that the more we crack down on it, the more it will stimulate the upgrading and replacement of this product, and this game between strength and weakness has formed a "technical competition" between the darknet and the US officialdom.

The result of this technical competition is undoubtedly that the official side lost.

On the other hand, the official crackdown has become the best advertisement to promote the product. The more the officials crack down, the more people will browse and download it."

Eddie's explanation finally gave everyone a general understanding of the dark web. If you want to catch H, you must get onion routing, but the onion routing technology is very powerful, and no one can crack it so far.

Jack listened silently. In fact, he was not ignorant about the dark web. On the contrary, he was still an Alpha Bay user.

There are countless websites in the dark web world, and Alpha Bay is one of the largest. Its status is similar to Amazon in the real world. Almost all illegal things can be purchased here.

Some of Jack's weapons and false identities were bought through Alpha Bay, but he only used to buy things there that could not be obtained through formal channels, and never paid attention to other aspects.

"Contact the Cyber ​​Crime Investigation Department and ask them to provide assistance. In addition, what is the progress of Bull's whereabouts?"

The FBI has a specialized department responsible for investigating cybercrimes, and the FBI National Academy in Quantico brings together a variety of talents from all over the United States. Silver doesn't believe they can't do anything with onion routing.

Speaking of this, Eddie's expression was completely different. Bull was the culprit of Anthony's injury, and Eddie had been blaming himself for his negligence that caused his teammates to be injured, and he had been holding back his energy.

"From the forum plan, we found that H suggested that Bull prepare an escape vehicle in advance. And our investigation showed that Bull's vehicle did not move, so he must have other means of transportation.

After that, we screened all the vehicle theft alarm information in the days before and after the explosion. Bull was just a middle school physical education teacher, not a professional car thief. I bet he didn’t think of turning off the GPS after stealing the car, and he didn’t.

We are disappointed.

After that, we gradually narrowed down the scope by comparing the stolen cars that left Los Angeles after the explosion. Then we retrieved the GPS surveillance videos of the stolen cars passing by the gas stations one by one, and finally found Bull's whereabouts. He was very careful and used cash, but he was still caught.

The surveillance captured it."

"Well done."

Silver couldn't help but praise that the support department led by Eddie was very effective this time, and they almost single-handedly located the suspect.

"Tell me his location."

"Hoke County, Nevada."

"JJ, contact the local police and ask them to pay attention to the stolen car, but don't alert the enemy. Be sure to wait until we arrive before taking action."

JJ agreed. In the team, she is not only the field staff, but also the external liaison. She is responsible for all communication and coordination with official agencies.

"Boss, you must find a way to get Bull's mobile phone. H has planned everything for him. They must be in contact privately.

Ordinary call records can be obtained from operators, but operators will not save text messages and the like. So as long as you get his mobile phone, you can contact H, and as long as you can contact H, sooner or later he will have it.

When you take the bait."

Silver nodded: "Guys, I'm afraid we have to fly to Nevada."

……

Two hours later, at Los Angeles International Airport, a Gulfstream 550 business jet took off into the sky.

"Is the FBI in California so rich?"

To be honest, Jack was surprised. California is a rich state, and the FBI here is very large in terms of scale and budget, but chartering flights at every turn is too extravagant.

Looking at the looks on the faces of the FBI, it was obvious that this was not their first time chartering a plane.

"Haha, that's not what happened..."

After JJ's explanation, he learned that although the Violent Crime Investigation Division led by Silver was affiliated with the California FBI, he was also part of the emergency response team.

The Emergency Response Team is one of the three special departments under the FBI headquarters. It has very wide authority and is responsible for handling all domestic emergencies. In other words, it can manage whatever it wants. Gulfstream business jets are actually a benefit of the Emergency Response Team.

.

After taking off, everyone did not chat, but took the time to rest. After landing, they would start investigating the case non-stop. I am afraid they will be busy for several days.

Just when everyone was closing their eyes and concentrating, JJ's cell phone rang at an inappropriate time.

JJ picked up, and his tone was full of surprise.

"What did you say? Okay, you send the information to my mobile phone."

Putting down the phone, everyone looked at her.

JJ didn’t give in. “Guys, the call just came from the Hoke County Police. They said they found the body of the suspect Bull Wilt half an hour ago.”

What?

JJ’s news shocked everyone again.

Bull Wilder is dead?

"Kill and silence?"

The result Spike said was also Jack's subconscious guess.

"I'm afraid not." JJ said: "Hoke County Police said that the way Bull Wilt died is similar to the two recent murders in Hoke County. They suspect it is a serial murder case and are preparing to notify the FBI."

Serial murder case?

Everyone was lost in thought. Isn't this such a coincidence? The suspect was murdered by a serial murderer just after he escaped to Hoke County.

"Tell Hoke County we've taken over this case."

Silver said it categorically.

What he did was equivalent to stealing the case from the Nevada FBI, but Silver didn't care.

Ordinary criminal cases are handled by the local police, but serial murder cases are under the jurisdiction of the FBI.

Theoretically speaking, this case can be handled by the FBI in Nevada or the FBI in California. After all, the deceased Bull Wilt is a Californian, and Silver also has the status of an emergency response team. As long as he wants to rob, this case will be handled.

It cannot fall into the hands of others.

Soon, Hawke County sent the information, JJ projected it on the big screen, and at the same time connected Eddie via video conference.

"The suspect we are chasing this time is Burl Wilder, a San Francisco native who lives in Los Angeles. He is 43 years old. His body was found in a forest in Nevada an hour ago. Several vital parts of his body were marked.

Wounds..."

"A week ago, another body was found seven miles away from where Wilt died. The deceased's name was Elizabeth Angus, a woman from Arizona. She had similar wounds on her body, and the earlier one was that of a woman.

A male, died a month ago..."

"Hoke County Police believe this is a serial murder case. Three people have been found dead so far. The deceased all have similar injuries, and each time they are even numbers..."

In the conference room of the business jet, Silver and his team members were sitting around, with Jack sitting at the side.

JJ introduced the case, Silver kept writing down some key points in a small book, Spike and Sanders listened with frowns.

The Hoke County police's inference seems to be correct. The three cases have the same characteristics and appear to be a serial murder case.

The characteristics of serial murder cases are easy to distinguish. The murderers in such cases generally have their own logic and a certain pattern of committing crimes, and the pattern of this case is those almost identical wounds.

While JJ was introducing, a photo was projected, and the appearance and wounds of the deceased were shown one by one.
