This result surprised Luke a little, but it makes sense after thinking about it carefully.

Casti Torres and Bart Ramos had different opinions on the business philosophy and direction of the second-hand car store, and a lot of conflicts occurred because of this matter, which was also confirmed by their colleagues and family members.

Previously, when he first started investigating the murder of Bart Ramos, Luke had also suspected Casti Torres.

Now that it is known that the real target of the gunman is Castilian Torres, then Bart Ramos is naturally also a suspect.

However, it is a bit ridiculous no matter how you look at it, hiring a killer yourself and killing yourself. Verification and definite evidence are needed before a formal conclusion can be drawn.

"Casdi, are you sure this caller is Bart Ramos?"

"Yes.

This is indeed his voice. I have worked with him for so many years and I am very familiar with it.

If you don’t believe it, you can ask other employees.”

"What do you think about this matter?"

"Unbelievable.

We did have conflicts over the business direction of the car dealership, but we have been working together for many years and can be considered good friends.

I can't believe he would do this, I can't accept it..." Cassidy Torres showed a sad look.

Luke had also asked Bart Ramos's wife before about the relationship between Bart Ramos and Cassidy Torres. In her wife's words, the two were colleagues, but because of their different personalities, they were not

Not a friend.

From this point of view, Cassidy Torres and Bart Ramos have different attitudes towards each other.

Luke asked, "Has Bart Ramos ever threatened you?"

"Although we have quarreled about the car dealership, we haven't reached that point yet."

"Why does Bart Ramos insist on opening a second-hand car dealership branch? What is your fundamental contradiction?"

"I started the Salibo car dealership bit by bit. I put a lot of effort into it, and the car dealership lived up to my efforts. The business was very good, and it supported our family and allowed us to live a relatively prosperous life.

My family and I no longer worry about money.

I am very satisfied with my current life and just want to run this second-hand car store well."

Cassidy Torres sighed softly and continued, "But Bart Ramos doesn't think so. He is an ambitious and ambitious person who is not satisfied with the status quo.

He is always full of energy and motivation, and I can't compare to him in this aspect.

But his purpose is too strong and he takes money too seriously. This is something I am not very satisfied with.

Take the matter of selling cars as an example. He will use some small tricks to get customers to spend more, and the benefits are indeed much higher, bringing more profits to the car dealer.

But it also brings a lot of trouble. Customers are not fools. If they are fooled once, they will not come back a second time.

He only values ​​interests, and we have had conflicts before because of this.

He wanted to expand the scale of the dealership and open new stores, which also aggravated the conflict between us.

Once I open a branch, I will need financing, and my voice in the car dealership will become smaller and smaller. If there is a problem with the operation, Salibo Car dealership will also be implicated.

I am very satisfied with my current life and there is no need to take such risks."

Luke discovered that Cassidy Torres began to use the full name of Bart Ramos, indicating that his attitude towards Bart Ramos had changed.

"Then why did you go to Long Beach with him for research?"

"He has been inviting me to go. In his words, there must be sufficient reasons for the objection. If there is no on-site inspection, how do we know that Long Beach is not suitable for opening a branch.

So I went there, planning to check it out on the spot and reject him based on the actual situation.

Then, something happened.

Now that I think about it, all of this may have been planned by him..." At this point, Cassidy Torres looked sad.

The circumstances described by Cassidy Torres were enough to show that Bart Ramos had a motive for committing the crime, but he was unable to provide definite clues and evidence.

After all, it was him who Bart Ramos wanted to kill, so how could he possibly notice the clues?

…

The next morning.

Bart Ramos's house.

This is a three-story gray-roofed villa with a tall palm tree planted in the yard and a young Labrador lying on the grass.

Three cars parked in front of Bart Ramos' house, and Luke and others got out of the cars one after another.

"Woof woof..." The Labrador got up from the ground and barked at Luke and others.

Xiao Hei lay on the guardrail of the yard and looked at the yellow Labrador.

"Woof woof..." The Labrador seemed to feel provoked and barked at Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei smiled, "This brat is so cute, I really want to kick him."

The people in the house seemed to hear the noise, the door opened, and Bart Ramos' wife came out of the house.

"Captain Li, why are you here?"

"Mrs. Ramos, we have investigated some new clues and would like to ask you to assist in the investigation."

"No problem, please come in."

Mrs. Ramos called the Labrador aside and invited Luke and others into the home. Apparently she did not notice that the police's attitude was different this time.

"Captain Li, have you found the murderer of my husband?"

Luke said truthfully, "Last night, we caught the murderer of your husband. He was just a professional killer who was instructed by an employer. We cannot confirm the identity of the employer yet.

I came to see you today and wanted to ask for your help in identifying it."

"Thank you. I didn't expect you to catch the gunman so quickly. Thank you so much. If you have anything you want to know, just ask."

"Has your husband used any large amounts of cash recently?"

"Yes, he took 10,000 US dollars in cash from his home a few days ago and said he would use it to open a branch in Long Beach City."

"Do you know a man named Vadim Tovani?"

"never heard of that."

Luke took out the photo of the killer again and asked him to identify him, "Do you know him?"

"never seen it."

"Has the conflict between your husband and his partner, Cassidy Torres, worsened to the point of hiring a murder?"

"Do you suspect that Cassidy Torres hired a killer to kill my husband?"

Luke asked, "Do you think this is possible?"

Mrs. Ramos thought for a moment, "I...I don't know how to say it, but the relationship between my husband and Cassidy Torres is indeed...very bad.

My husband has complained at home more than once that Cassidy Torres is a stubborn stone who doesn't know how to adapt, doesn't study the market, and has nothing but skills in repairing cars.

He is only suitable for technical work and should not join management at all.

Sometimes he would also yell at Cassidy Torres at home. The relationship between the two of them was far worse than outsiders imagined.

My husband's attitude towards Castilian Torres is like this. You can imagine the attitude of Castilian Torres towards my husband.

If someone had told me that Cassidy Torres was also verbally abusive to my husband at home, I would have no doubt."

"Mrs. Ramos, how many cell phones does your husband have in total?"

"I have 3 mobile phones, one for work, one for home, and one as a spare. I only have one spare phone at home now, and I don't know where the other two are."

"Your husband had two mobile phones with him when he was killed. They are both evidence in the case and are being kept at the police station. You can collect them after the case is investigated.

In addition, we are coming today to take away the third mobile phone, which is also an exhibit."

"Wait a minute, this mobile phone has been kept at home, why is it considered an exhibit?"

"The cell phone may contain some clues to your husband's murder. Where is the backup cell phone?"

"It's on the bedside table in the bedroom. I'll get it."

"Mrs. Ramos, please stay. I will ask the police to get it."

"Why? You are here to investigate the case, but you cannot enter my husband and I's bedroom at will. This is illegal."

Luke showed the search warrant and said, "Mrs. Ramos, please assist."

"What do you mean? Why are you searching my home?"

Luke said, "Sorry, the situation is a bit complicated. We can't disclose it to the public until we find out more about it."

Mrs. Ramos was not satisfied with this reason, "My husband is being killed now, he is the victim, and now you are searching my home.

I want an explanation."

Luke said, "Mrs. Ramos, I will give you an explanation after the search is over. Now please get out of the way."

Mrs. Ramos looked helpless and said helplessly, "This is best, otherwise I will definitely sue you."
