Luke and the two escorted the assistant director Crapo Shino back to the police detective station.

Luke returned to the office first, while Xiao Hei was responsible for writing reports and handling the custody procedures.

A familiar voice sounded, [Congratulations to the host for successfully detecting the "hired injury" case and being awarded 5 lottery opportunities. 】

The case was relatively simple, the suspect Ada confessed it easily, and the reward was not huge.

The options menu appears in my mind, and the warehouse interface is on the left.

On the right is the lottery interface, with 5 times written in the lower right corner.

Luke thought for a while, there was no lottery, the number of times was too small, and the chance of winning was low.

Let's wait until the next time we solve a case and draw a lottery together, maybe we can get an awesome reward.

"Hey, Luke, what are you thinking about? You're in a daze again." Xiao Hei walked over quietly.

"Has the report been written?"

"Of course" Xiao Hei whispered in Luke's ear, "The Harley has been modified. Do you want to close the net tonight?"

"Why not?" Luke perked up.

"Would you like to call David?"

"No, I will call the rookie patrol officers, they are more suitable to arrest people."

"That's right, four people are enough. After all, he's just a gangster who stole a car."

Susan came over with a cup of coffee, "Have you caught the assistant director?"

"Yes, Captain, we are just trying to report to you." Luke briefly explained the arrest process, and also talked about the new clues provided by the deputy director Crapo Shino. "

Susan asked, "Do you think Crapo Hinault's words are credible?

"If this guy wants to get a reduced sentence, he shouldn't lie."

"Good, congratulations on catching another suspect and successfully solving an old crime."

"This is everyone's credit, we are just lucky." Luke said modestly.

Susan asked Raymond again, "Is there any progress in your investigation?"

Raymond turned his head and motioned to Jenny and said.

Jenny thought for a while and replied, "We went to the hotel to check the surveillance, and the situation was basically consistent with what producer Rossi described. The two of them entered the hotel room one after another, and there was no third person present.

But when we checked the surveillance, we found a suspicious figure." Jenny said, playing a video on the projector,

A woman wearing a hat, a mask, and sunglasses walked through the lobby. This woman's body shape was very similar to Courtney's, and then a woman in a black dress also walked over.

The woman in the black dress followed her until Courtney entered the hotel room.

Jenny explained, "Courtney Bass is very well-dressed in the video, and it is difficult for ordinary people to recognize her. Since the woman in the black skirt can be recognized, she is either prepared for it or she is an acquaintance.

It is obvious from the video that this woman in a long black dress is stalking Courtney."

Susan asked, "Have you found out the identity of this woman?"

Jenny shook her head, “Not yet, we asked at the hotel front desk, but she didn’t check in.

We will verify her identity through other means as soon as possible."

"Dongdong..." There was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in."

A tall, bald, and imposing white man in his thirties stood at the door, "Is this the No. 1 Squadron of the Robbery and Murder Department?"

Luke stood up, "Yes, what do you want?"

The man looked around the office, "Are you investigating Courtney Bass's case?"

"That's right."

"My name is Boris Boss, and I am Courtney's boyfriend."

Everyone looked at him in unison.

Isn’t Courtney’s boyfriend Peter Deist? Why does another one appear?

Xiao Hei pouted and widened his eyes, "What did you just say, that you are Courtney's boyfriend?"

The bald man asked, "What's the problem?"

Xiao Hei asked abruptly, "Have you two ever played poker?"

The man frowned, "Is the Detective Bureau so superficial now? If we could determine our relationship just by playing poker, I would have countless girlfriends."

Luke said, "This guy was recently dumped and is agitated. Mr. Boss, don't pay attention to him. Sit here and I will take notes for you."

"I wanted to see Courtney, but she left in such a hurry that I didn't even get to see her for the last time."

"After the transcript is completed, I will ask someone to take you to see her."

The man sat at an empty table, and Luke turned on the law enforcement recorder, "What's your name?"

"Boris Bose."

"Are you Courtney's boyfriend?"

"I just said it, is there any problem?"

Luke said perfunctorily, "We just haven't heard of you, please confirm."

Boris said, "You haven't heard that it's normal. Courtney is a star and is watched by paparazzi all day long. She is worried that publicity will affect my work and life, so she is very careful to protect my privacy."

Luke nodded, "That's so thoughtful."

Boris nodded, his eyes slightly red, "Although we are in a long-distance relationship and don't have many opportunities to meet, every time we meet is unforgettable. She is a great woman, and I am already planning to propose to her."

"How long have you known each other?"

"Two years and three months."

"I remember it so clearly."

"I cherish every day I spend with her. There is nothing happier than being with the person I like. As long as we like each other, even if we do the most boring things, we will still be full of interest.

I really like that feeling and myself in that state.”

"Don't you usually live in Los Angeles?"

"Yes, I am the manager of a casino in Las Vegas. I stay in Las Vegas most of the time. Sometimes I will come to Los Angeles to see her, and sometimes she will go to Las Vegas to see me.

.

I still remember one time, she suddenly came to Las Vegas to celebrate my birthday, and we spent an unforgettable night.

She was a good woman and shouldn't have died like this.

Do you know who killed her?"

"It's not clear yet, it's under investigation." Luke asked, "When did you know about her murder?"

"I have been unable to contact her and guessed that something might have happened to her. I booked the earliest flight back to Los Angeles and learned about her murder from a neighbor.

I still can't believe this is true.

A few days ago, we were planning our future together. She said she was going to Las Vegas to see me, and I was going to plan a proposal with my friends. There are still many things we haven't had time to do..." Boris looked sad.

.

Luke glanced at Xiao Hei and continued to ask, "Mr. Boris, I have a more personal question that may offend you, but it is very important and related to the investigation of this case."

"go ahead."

"Have you ever played poker with Courtney?"

Xiao Hei, who was standing far away, waved his fist vigorously.

Boris looked at Luke, "There's nothing that can't be said. Although we are in a long-distance relationship and don't see each other very often, we still play poker every time we meet."

“Do you use protection when playing poker?”

Boris took a deep breath and said, "Yes, is there a problem?"

In the distance, Xiao Hei gestured with three fingers.

Boris seemed to spot Xiao Hei from the corner of his eye and pointed at him, "What is that guy doing? Is he sick?"

"You just need to...ignore him."

Boris took a deep breath and said, "I really want to beat him."

David echoed, "What you think is very normal. No one in this room thinks about it."

"Thank you, this sentence makes me feel a lot more comfortable." Boris glared at Xiao Hei.

Luke confirmed, "When was the last time you saw each other?"

"Half a month ago, I came to Los Angeles to visit the class."

"Where do you live?"
