The bartender said, "Mr. Ronald Balbert, our boss heard about George and sympathizes with his plight. He would like to ask you to go to the back and have a chat."

Ronald showed an exaggerated look, "Guys, did you hear it? The famous Boss Roger wants to chat with me.

It's my pleasure."

After saying that, Ronald stood up and followed the bartender Arcee out of the front hall of the bar.

Under the leadership of the bartender Arshi, the two walked back to the back door of the bar.

At this time, Ronald seemed to feel something was wrong, "Arshi, didn't you say you were going to see Mr. Rogge? Where are we going?"

"Yes, Mr. Rogge is waiting for you at the back door."

Hearing these words, Ronald turned around and was about to run away, but was caught by Arcee, "It's impolite to break an appointment without any reason. The boss will be angry."

Arcee opened the back door and pushed Ronald out.

Ronald looked at the dimly lit back alley. Three strong black men were waiting for him outside the door, walking towards him eagerly. Ronald instinctively took two steps back, "I... came to see Mr. Rogge."

of."

What he responded to was a beating from three strong black men.

"ah……"

Ronald was beaten so much that he cried and howled, "Why did you beat me? If you have something to say, why are you doing this?"

Killing, please help."

Still no response, just beating him.

They didn't stop until Ronald's face was beaten with blood and he lay on the ground unable to get up.

The bartender Arcee walked over and said, "Ronald, do you know you are wrong?"

"Boss Rogge said I was wrong, and I am wrong, but can you tell me where I am wrong? I am willing to change it."

The bartender said, "Is that wad of twenty dollars today yours?"

"Yes."

"Why did you cheat me with fake money? Do you think I'm a fool?"

"Fake money? That's not fake money. There must be some misunderstanding."

The bartender took out a twenty dollar bill and said, "This is the money you gave me." The bartender tore it open and threw the note in Ronald's face.

Ronald picked up the blood-stained banknotes, "Fuck, how could it be white paper? That bastard George killed me." Then, Ronald hugged the bartender's leg and said, "Please listen to my explanation, this is not mine.

I got the money from George’s house, and I didn’t know it was fake money, otherwise I wouldn’t have dared to do it even if I had ten nerves.”

"Where did George get all this money?"

"I have no idea."

"Pay off the wine debt you owe within half a month, otherwise, you will be dead.

Understand?"

"I see."

"Can it be done?"

"Yes, I can."

"Hey, what are you doing?"

A voice came from the shadows of the back alley, and Xiao Hei and Luke walked out, with police badges still hanging on their bodies.

"Two officers, he accidentally fell down, and we are about to help him up."

"The fall was not light." Luke walked closer and asked Ronald, "Did you fall by yourself?"

"That's right, I fell by myself. Thanks to them for helping me up."

"Good, there are still many good people in this world."

"Officer, I want to call the police." the bartender said.

"What happened?"

"This guy spent hundreds of dollars at our bar and paid with counterfeit money."

Luke looked at Ronald, "Did you use counterfeit money?"

Ronald glanced at the bartender and nodded, "Yes, I used it."

"Where did it come from?"

"Took it from my brother's house."

"Who is your brother?"

"George Balbert."

"Did you know it's illegal to use counterfeit money?"

"I know, but I didn't know those were counterfeit coins, I swear."

"Whether you know it or not, you are using counterfeit money. Come with us."

"Okay, I'll go with you." Ronald agreed happily. It was safer to go with the police at this time than to stay here.

"Nonono, this won't work. You'd better go to the bar and wash your face. We'll wait for you at the front door of the bar."

"I don't need to wash my face, no problem." Ronald didn't want to go into the bar again.

The gangster said, "This is not your decision. If you don't wash your stinky face, don't even think about getting into my car."

"Two police officers, stay with me and I will help him wash his face." The bartender volunteered.

"You are such a good and helpful person, no wonder your bar's business is so good.

Ronald, see you soon."

Luke and Blackie return to the car.

Luke asked, "Your friends haven't found out where Derrick is?"

"There is no news yet. There are many black teenagers who come out to hang out at the age of fourteen or fifteen. It is not easy to find them."

Luke thought for a while, "Then add two more. This guy spends a lot of money and may be carrying a lot of twenty-dollar bills."

…

Luke and Blackie escorted Ronald Balbert back to the police detective station.

He expressed his speculation.

The whole thing ties together too.

The reason why Quinnier, who was originally in financial distress, became rich was because he accidentally obtained a counterfeit banknote. It was precisely because of the counterfeit banknote that Quinnier was pursued by George and Jamie.

.

Quenier's good friend Derrick also had a certain connection with the money. Derrick was also hunted by the two men, and his life or death was uncertain.

Later, after George took drugs and drank alcohol, he was stimulated and went to the supermarket to buy things with counterfeit money and was caught.

Luke identified George as a suspect through criminal investigation sketches.

Later, Jamie asked his girlfriend who worked in the hospital to assassinate George, but Luke and Xiao Hei happened to break it.

Of course, these are all just speculations, and the important thing is to find relevant incriminating evidence.

"boom."

The door to the conference room opened and Matthew walked into the conference room, "Guys, you should see this."

Matthew turned on the TV in the conference room and played back a piece of news.

"Hello viewers, I am CFP TV reporter Pari Jones, reporting a news emergency.

I think everyone is familiar with the name George Balbert.

Our CFP TV station has also been paying attention to his situation. According to various investigations, we got some unfortunate news.

Last night, George's treatment failed and he passed away.

Yes, I don't want to believe this sad news, but the reality is so cruel.

Lapd arrested George in the name of committing a crime. Let’s not say whether George is guilty or not, but the suspect also has the right to life, and Lapd has no reason to deprive him of it.

In order to prevent more similar things from happening, our CFP TV station will continue to pay attention to reporting on this matter.

I'm reporter Pari Jones."

Jackson pointed at the TV and said, "I know this woman, she seems to know Marcus..."

Luke smiled and said, "Detective Marcus, your girlfriend is going to be famous."

Marcus looked a little ugly, "She's not my girlfriend? She's just one of my many suitors. She's not my cup of tea at all."

The deputy team leader reminded, "Stay away from this girl, she will kill you sooner or later."
