280. Beckett's Obsession
Lake had investigated Beckett's mother's case before, and even knew where the key evidence was. Similarly, he knew the murderer.
but……
Just like when Lake was in the police station before, at that time, Beckett cared about his mother's case. As friends, all Lake and George could do was respect Beckett.
at the moment?
The time is here.
First, Kassel and Beckett fell in love, and Beckett was suspended again because of this case.
Second, who made Blaken mess with him in an interview a month ago?
The reporter of the Horn Daily, Lake took the time to deal with the rest a few days ago. It was not that Lake didn't take action, but if he did, Beckett probably wouldn't be able to vent.
The settlement of the autumn after the autumn is written deep in Lake's memory. Although it is still June, if you don't go so seriously, June is actually the autumn after the autumn.
So it's time to settle the accounts.
Kassel was stunned when he heard Lake's words: "You know Beckett and me..."
All right.
Kassel thought their investigation was still very secret.
Lake laughed and drank Bourbon in the cup: "Please, who am I?"
Federal executives.
The Department of Homeland Security, the New York State Supervisor, said bluntly that as long as Lake wants, he can directly shut down New York State's sea, land and air at a command, regardless of whether he has any evidence of a terrifying attack.
Just then.
Beckett, with a blonde hair, also walked downstairs.
at first.
Beckett's expression was a little shy. After all, her awkward side was knocked out by her friend, but when Beckett saw Cassel's look at him, his expression also changed.
"What's wrong?"
“…”
Kassel turned his head and glanced at Lake who was pursing Bourbon, opened his mouth, and then turned to look at Beckett again: "Lack said he has evidence."
Beckett was stunned for a moment, then understood what Kassel said, and with a swish, his eyes directly looked at Lake.
Lake shrugged.
Beckett hurried over and was as disbelief as Kassel: "How could it be?"
Lake looked at Baker: "Remember, George and I secretly investigated with you on my back, and then you discovered that George and I were pulled to the training ground to explode together?"
Beckett shook his head and said, "I don't think it's a blast."
Lake shrugged: "Actually, George and I had already reached a critical issue at that time. After you taught me a lesson, George and I both expressed respect for your choice and gave up this case, but..."
Paused.
Lake laughed in dismay: "I must confess something to you. After George and I promised you to give up this case, I finally conducted an investigation."
Beckett said in a deep voice: "That document."
Lake thought for a while: "I don't think it's a document. In fact, I know he might be evidence, but I haven't seen it. As I said, I respect you."
After saying that.
Lake stood up and walked outside: "Now I respect you as much as I can, but I can tell you that Kassel already knows this clue."
Becket looked at Kassel in an instant, and the latter was stunned, looking at Lake who was walking to the door: "When did you tell me?"
"How did the key clues of Agent Derek Sdomme discover the first case."
“…”
With a bang.
Lake said that after he was based on himself and created the Derek Storm series by Kassel, he went out directly and closed the door thoughtfully.
In the room.
Beckett came back to his senses and looked at Kassel: "I remember the first case of Agent Derek Sdomm was to investigate the cause of his sister's death. It was also because of his sister's death that Derek Sdomm would come back from the battlefield."
After all, Beckett is Cassel's loyal book fan. Not only Cassel's popular crime novels, but also those failed crime novels, Beckett has read them.
Kassel nodded and recalled the content of the Derek Storm series of novels, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "By the way, I remember that I had consulted Lake at that time, and the key clues were written as Lake said. After all, what he said was very dramatic. The key evidence of killing his sister was in a relic left by her sister to Derek Storm."
Beckett's eyes lit up.
Nothing else.
Beckett suddenly remembered that during the years at the New York Police Department, when Lake chatted with her, he would talk about a gift her mother left to her, and asked whether it was worth the gift, and even asked her if it fell or lost it, it would be bad.
Think about it.
Beckett looked at Kassel: "Police Department, my office!"
Kassel seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Beckett who was already walking towards the door and said quickly: "Wait for me."
upstairs.
When Lake returned home, two hangover girls were already sitting on the side of the high stool, each carrying a glass of cold water. Lake walked over, smiled, and looked at the two little ones: "How is it?"
Alexis looked up: "Here's a headache."
"It's still dizzy."
Skye said a little sickly, then looked at Lake who turned around to get the wine from the wine cabinet, and said with some wonder: "Why do you drink until you sleep every time you come back, but you don't feel at all?"
Lake chuckled: "Do you want to know?"
Skye nodded.
Lake touched his chin, pointed at the Bourbon, which had more than half left, and looked at Skye: "When did I buy this bottle of wine? Do you still remember?"
Skye covered his forehead and recalled: "It should have been half a month ago when we went to the supermarket to buy it. I remember, this is a Bourbon worth ninety-nine yuan, it's expensive. You used to drink the kind of forty-nine."
Lake twitched: "This is not important. What's important is that I have been drinking for half a month and still half. Have you thought of anything?"
Who said that he only drank cheap wine before? He was obviously used to drinking it, and he had not found a high-priced alternative for a while.
Skye thought about it, then looked at Lake with some feeling something was wrong: "You drink it every day, but it's only half of it in half a month?"
Lake smiled and nodded.
"How is that possible? When I see you, you always hold a wine glass in your hand."
"Correct, but I didn't feel stuffy. Sometimes, I picked up the wine glass and didn't even drink it, just pretending to be me."
"……Why?"
"Drinking alcohol, you don't drink alcohol, do you know?"
Lake's eyes became a little deeper, and he savored the ninety-nine pieces of Bourbon on the tip of his nose, looking at Skye and Alexhis: "Drinking, drinking is an attitude, not something else, do you know?"
Said.
Lake directly used the Force to wander around the two little ones. After the healing Force was retracted, the two little ones suddenly felt that they were not in such pain.
“Huh?”
"Clam."
Skye and Alexhis felt the changes in their bodies and looked at each other, as if they were not so painful.
Lake drank Bourbon in the cup, then poured himself a full cup, and walked towards the spiral stairs: "Sky, it's time to change the water from the swimming pool outside."
The joy on Skye's face was suddenly gone without a trace because of the hangover, and she said to Lake who was walking up the stairs.
Alexhis looked at Skye: "It's okay, I'll help you."
Skye felt a little better now.
Ibrahimovic jumped out and shouted at Skye, as if he was also showing that he would help Skye.
In the study room.
Lake sat down in his chair.
He said that Skye would not be banned from drinking just because she was less than 21 years old, but he did not say that he would not be punished.
After Lake was discovered by Karen at the age of thirteen because of a hangover, she was the same as Lake punished Skye now. As a punishment, Karen asked Lake to clean up the swimming pool in the backyard with a hangover.
Skye's treatment has been much better than Lake.
After all, Lake was dying of the pool with a hangover, and Betty, who was five years younger than him, was also helping Lake.
At most, Betty, who was only eight years old at the time, had no strength.
Many of Lake's educational concepts are taught by Karen by example, which is also a kind of inheritance. Of course, the only education for the unrestrained son is excluded.
That rebellious son, Lake was already very restrained as a transparent person.
Martha did not stop Alexhis from helping Alexhis. After all, this was a punishment for Skye, but it could also be used as a punishment for Alexhis.
After all, the two little ones did something wrong.
If you have any mistakes, you will admit it. This is the minimum issue of integrity.
but……
In the afternoon, the two little ones cleaned the swimming pool and changed into clean water. After jumping into the pool in their swimsuits, it seemed that the fatigue of the afternoon disappeared and once again returned to the state of youthlessness.
Kassel and Beckett.
When Beckett and Kassel arrived at the police station, there was no doubt that Beckett also received the order to suspend her work and cancel her job. Although Lake is not very familiar with the current senior management of the police station, he knew the current senior officials of the local inspection system. He called him and investigated him. The local inspection no longer investigated. What the hell is the police station investigating?
Afterwards, Beckett saw the relics left to her by his mother on the table.
Next second.
With a bang, the relics fell to the ground and shattered. Then, a tape appeared in front of several people, and the story became natural.
At night.
Lake sat on the sofa watching the evening New York news on TV.
"At around four o'clock in the afternoon, according to internal news from the New York Police Department, the District Prosecutor officially issued an order to arrest Congressman Blacken. According to reliable news, the allegations of conspiracy to commit fraud and suspected murder of Joanna Beckett have been arrested by Kate Beckett of the New York Police Department. It is worth mentioning that Kate Beckett is Joanna Beckett's daughter..."
