Luke walked up to the female gunman holding an AK47. She was a white woman. The bullet hit the left side of her forehead, cutting off half of her scalp, and shot her head.

Although she was already dead, Luke still habitually held the AK47 far away.

Walker also came over and stood not far from Marlon Backus to check on his injuries.

Marlon Backus was shot in the chest, blood flowed all over the floor, and he was no longer breathing.

As for the body armor on Marlon Backus, it had long been stripped off and put on Walker. "This female gunman is really a ruthless character. She even killed her own accomplices."

Luke also came over, looked at Marlon Backus lying on the ground, and said with an indifferent expression, "These two are perverts, and it is difficult to think about them with normal thinking."

Walker asked, "What do you think we should do now?"

Luke looked around, but didn't hear anything. He looked towards the cave, "See if there are any other victims or accomplices of the suspect."

Walker understood, "Good idea."

The two still didn't dare to take it lightly. Luke put on a new magazine and Walker also took out his revolver.

The two of them entered the cave one after the other, left and right, to search.

At this time, it was not bright yet, so we needed to use a flashlight to see clearly what was going on inside the cave.

The cave is about 1,500 square feet in area and is a natural cave.

There are a lot of sundries placed outside the cave entrance. On the right is the living area, on the left is the rest area, and further in it looks like a storage room.

Luke and Walker searched separately.

Luke walked directly into the storage room. He felt that the treasure was more likely to be hidden here. Of course, he had to make sure the safety of the cave was first.

He conducted a general search and found no one else in the cave, so Luke continued to search for the whereabouts of the treasure.

There are many guns on display in the storage room, including shotguns, AR-15s, Glock pistols, submachine guns, etc., as well as some equipment needed for exploration, mountaineering picks, high-light flashlights, cartridge stoves, drones, etc.

Luke searched carefully, but found no clues to the treasure in the storage room.

Did Marlon Backus lie? He didn't find the treasure, he just led himself here so that his female accomplice could kill him.

No, that gold pocket watch should be one of Forrest Finn's treasures.

Suddenly, Walker's voice rang out from the cave again, "Luke, come over here."

Luke left the storage room and saw Walker sticking his butt out and pulling out a wooden box from under the bed. It was very similar to the box they dug out in Big Bear Lake last time, except that this box was larger and looked heavier.

Luke rubbed his hands with an expectant look on his face.

Walker also chuckled, looking a little excited, "This box actually has no lock, these two bastards are really relieved."

The wooden box had a lock, but it was broken and could only be hung on it. Walker reached out to open the box, but Luke stopped him, "You stand back and let me do it."

Walker frowned slightly, "Are you worried that there is danger in the box?"

"It's unlikely, but it's always good to be careful."

Walker nodded and took a few steps back.

Luke gently took off the lock hanging on the wooden box, slowly opened the lid of the box, and observed the situation inside through the gaps in the box.

Walker held a flashlight and shined light at the side.

The lid of the wooden box slowly opened, and Luke found nothing unusual. The light of the flashlight shone into the box, illuminating the items inside, which were golden.

Luke looked at a box full of gold jewelry, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily, turned to Walker beside him and asked, "Is this the scene you were looking forward to?"

Walker smiled and said, "Of course, although it's not the first time I've seen it, it's still very exciting. This is the charm of adventure treasure hunting."

Luke said, "We are very lucky. It would be perfect if there were not two corpses outside."

Walker grabbed a handful of gold jewelry from the box, checked the texture, and put the gold jewelry back, smiling, "From a certain point of view, we should be grateful to them. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be able to find these treasures."

.”

Luke didn't want to thank the two perverted murderers, but waved and said, "Help, let's lift the box to the pickup truck and transport it back to our RV first. That's the real safety."

"You're right." Walker walked to the entrance of the cave, looked out and saw nothing unusual, and then he and Luke carried the box out.

When passing by two corpses, Walker asked, "What to do with these two corpses? Just keep them here?"

Luke moved the box into the back of the pickup truck cab and fixed it, and said, "It's definitely not possible to leave it like this. There are many wild animals in the canyon. In less than half a day, they will be picked up by coyotes.

There probably won’t even be any bone residue left.”

Luke took out his mobile phone and took pictures of the shooting scene, then carried the two bodies into the cave and took pictures again.

This is the residence of two perverted killers. Not only did they kill people, they must have also killed many wild animals. In a short period of time, coyotes should not dare to approach. Of course, after a long time, it is impossible to say for sure.

After settling in, the two drove the pickup truck back to the RV campground and put the treasure box into the RV. Only then did they feel at ease.

It's already getting light outside.

In order to avoid trouble, the two confessed that they dug the treasure themselves and had nothing to do with the two perverted killers.

The reason why they went to the perverted killer's camp was because they suspected that the perverted killer had imprisoned other victims. As a result, they were ambushed by a female gunman. The two of them fought back for their own safety.

The two of them studied this rhetoric carefully, thought of some details, and even specially found a location where the treasure could be excavated.

In addition, the two of them had a treasure map, and the purpose of coming to Red Rock Canyon was to hunt for treasure, so it was logical for them to obtain the treasure.

Moreover, the two perverted killers are already dead. With no evidence of death, these treasures were dug by themselves.

With their status, no one will hold on to this matter.

After arranging everything, the two left Red Rock Canyon, with Walker driving the RV and Luke driving the pickup truck.

On the way, the two passed by the place where the black woman was killed.

Luke got out of the car, took photos of the scene, and then put the black woman's body into the pickup truck, also to prevent the body from being eaten by wild animals.

It can also be seen from here that Red Rock Canyon is indeed a good place for murder and robbery. There is no need to bury the bodies at all. The wild animals will help dispose of them. Even if the police receive a missing report afterwards, they will only find some remaining bones.

The specific cause of death could not be found at all.

After handling the matter, Luke drove the three-wheel motorcycle and Walker drove the RV to leave the Red Rock Canyon.

Luke's cell phone had a signal, and he contacted Anthony, deputy director of the FBI's Los Angeles office.

The FBI Los Angeles Office is one of the larger offices in the western United States. Its jurisdiction is not just Los Angeles, but radiates to most of the western region.

The FBI's New York office is a larger FBI office in the eastern United States. It is mainly responsible for cases in the eastern United States, but it is not as convenient as Anthony's.

Luke explained the situation and sent photos of the two perverted killers.

The FBI quickly identified the two suspects. They were the two murder suspects wanted by the FBI. Among them, the reward for Marlon Backus was as high as $80,000, and the reward for the AK47 female shooter was $5.

Ten thousand U.S. dollars.

The two men roamed many cities and committed many robberies and murders. Their methods of committing crimes were very cruel, mostly based on torture and murder. They were wanted by the police and FBI in many places.

Anthony contacted the personnel of the FBI's Colorado office and asked them to send people to the scene immediately. At the same time, he also flew to Red Rock Canyon to take over the follow-up work of the case.

Luke and Walker came to the rest area near Red Rock Canyon. It was busier than last time and there were many vehicles parked.

Luke and the two went directly into the restaurant and found a seat by the window to sit down, where they could see the location of the RV.

Luke still ordered a burrito and French fries, plus a Coke.

For a restaurant like this, choosing burritos is a safer decision.

When the two of them were eating, a Mexican man wearing a cowboy hat walked in outside, it was Carlos, the canyon ranger.

Walker was in a good mood and took the initiative to say hello, "Hey, buddy, as I said last time, I invited you to have a drink when we meet again. Do you have time?"

Carlos came over and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but not today. By the way, was that three-wheeled motorcycle you rode over here?"

Luke said, "I rode here, but the car does not belong to us, but to a friend we met in the canyon. The friend got lost last night, so I drove back by the way.

You came just in time, can you help us solve it?"

Carlos sighed, "This problem is a bit complicated. Your friend may never be able to drive this three-wheeled motorcycle."

"What's up with him?"

Carlos asked, "Did you hear gunshots last night?"

"Yes." Luke responded and asked, "What do you think of the gunshots last night?"

"Due to the sound of gunfire, I went into the canyon to check this morning and met an old white man. His hands were chopped off. It was very miserable.

Fortunately, his life was saved, and my colleagues sent him to a nearby hospital for treatment.

In addition, I learned from him that he owns a three-wheeled motorcycle, which is probably the one outside."

Walker sighed, "What an unlucky guy. I hope my arm can still be connected."

"I'm afraid it's difficult. His right hand has been lost. It may have been taken away by a coyote. No one can guarantee whether the left hand can be reattached." Carlos shook his head slightly and looked at Luke again.

"I suggest you leave Red Rock Canyon. It's not peaceful here lately."

Luke asked, "Who cut him?"

Carlos sat next to him and said, "He said it was a perverted man wearing a hood. He didn't see his appearance clearly. The murder weapon was a machete."

"I remember that on the first day we came to Red Rock Canyon, you reminded us that we had better leave. Is it because of this perverted killer?"
