Chapter 561 Mutual Benefit(1/2)
"Isn't your purpose to take revenge? Why do you say you want to save more people?" Luke heard the implication. If a person's motive for committing a crime changes, the way he commits the crime will also change.
Thomas Colley's eyes flashed sharply, "I hate not only Kalman Pharmaceuticals, but also the unethical system of drug testers. I want to use the death of Rohel Horn to trigger more
People are paying attention to the profession of drug testers.
Only in this way can it be possible to ban this industry, which is my ultimate goal."
"Did you also ask Rohel Horn to mail the letter of report against Kalman Pharmaceuticals' illegal human experiments to the TV station?"
"Yes, only in this way will the death of Rohel Horn be noticed by more people, and more people will resist Kalman Pharmaceuticals and the drug tester system.
It seems to be working pretty well now.
The citizens of Los Angeles still have a sense of justice, and I believe they will flood the streets soon." A smile appeared on Thomas Colley's face.
Luke asked the next question, "Why did you kidnap Lydia Cooney's daughter?"
"If possible, I would like to say sorry to that girl in person. I never meant to hurt her, I just had to do it as a last resort." Thomas Colley spread his hands and explained,
"Although the death of Rohel Horn will destroy the reputation of Kalman Pharmaceuticals, I feel that this is not enough. I also want to destroy their experimental results, so I thought of setting fire to Kalman Pharmaceuticals."
The experimental building.
We need an insider to lead the way, so we kidnapped Lydia Cooney's daughter. In fact, even if you don't rescue the little girl, I will send her away in two days."
Xiao Hei said sarcastically, "You are such a kind guy. Now I am a little doubtful whether it was a mistake to let you sit on that chair."
"I know you may not believe it, but what I say is true."
Luke crossed out another question, "Why did you kill Walder Baker?"
Thomas Colley touched his chin, "That guy deserves to die, he is not a good person to begin with, he is only interested in profit and extremely greedy.
But then again, if he wasn't greedy, he wouldn't do this with me.
However, I simply don't have that much money to give him, or in other words, I'm not as rich as he thinks. In that case, I can only kill him.
Otherwise, he will definitely cause trouble, and then the whole plan will fail, and Rohel Horn's death will be of no value."
"Is anyone else involved in your plan?"
"No, if there are too many people, it will be easy for the news to leak."
Luke concluded, "So, the murder of Rohel Horne, the kidnapping of Lydia Cooney's daughter, the arson at Kalman Pharmaceuticals, and the murder of Walda Baker were all caused by you.
It was planned and implemented behind the scenes.”
"Yes." Thomas Corley nodded vigorously, "I believe it is worth it. Kalman Pharmaceuticals has been punished as it should be, and more people have begun to pay attention to the unhuman work of drug testers.
Although I was caught, my goal was achieved.
Believe me, the world would be a better place without the job of drug testers."
Xiao Hei said, "Listen, I don't like the job of a drug tester either, and I also know it will cause harm to some people.
But you also need to know that the purpose of developing new drugs is to save lives. Once the drugs are on the market, they can save more patients.
in a sense……"
Thomas Colley's voice suddenly rose, interrupting Xiao Hei, "Birth, old age, illness and death are part of life. People can be treated when they are sick, but don't over-treat.
The human body has a certain degree of self-healing ability, and excessive use of drugs will only make the body weaker.
If you really have an incurable disease, then die calmly.
Is it meaningful to lie in bed and rely on drugs to maintain life?
Moreover, all human lives are equal, and no one has the obligation to try medicine to treat other people's illnesses.
This is immoral and will be punished by God."
Thomas Colley stared at Luke and Xiao Hei, as if he wanted to get their approval, or he was expecting their rebuttal.
Luke shrugged, "I'm not interested in this advanced topic, you'd better leave it to the jury and the judge in court.
If you can convince them, maybe you won't have to go to jail."
Thomas Colley said firmly, "I will!"
Later, Luke packed up his things and left the interrogation room with Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei caught up with Luke and pointed to his head, "Captain, do you think there is something wrong with this guy's brain?"
"No, he is very conscious."
"Then what do you think of what he just said?"
Luke sneered, "It's a lot of lies."
Xiao Hei frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Forget what he just said. The rhetoric he just said is just to divert your attention."
"Didn't he kill Walder Beck?"
"He should have killed Walder Baker, but there was some truth or lies in what he said, and he must have concealed some important clues..."
There were three reasons why Luke did not expose the other party during the interrogation. First, the other party had already confessed.
Second, in order to paralyze the other party and make the other party mistakenly think that the police believed his words, to see if it would reveal the truth.
Third, Luke only saw that the other party was lying, and there was no evidence to prove that the other party had lied. Even if the other party pointed out the lie, the other party would not admit it. By then, Luke would be passive.
What Luke has to do now is to collect more clues and evidence to find out the truth hidden by Thomas Colley.
…
Rohel Horn's house.
"Dong dong..."
After a while, the door opened.
The person who opened the door was Rohel Horn's wife, Christian Horn.
She had gone to the Robbery and Murder Division to meet with Luke.
Christian Horn looked at Luke and Xiao Hei with some surprise, "Captain Li, why are you here?
Is there any result on my husband’s case?”
Luke looked at the other party. The woman's face was a little haggard and her mental state was not very good. "Yes, the case of your husband's murder has indeed made progress. We came here today to check his belongings and maybe find some new clues."
"Come in." Christian Horn stepped aside and asked Luke and Xiao Hei to sit on the sofa in the living room. "What relics of my husband do you want to see?"
Luke glanced around the living room, "Can I walk around the house?"
"I'm sorry, in addition to my husband's things, there are things in this house that belong to me and my children, especially since I have a girl.
I'm really sorry, it's really inconvenient." Christian Horn looked embarrassed and suggested, "Captain Li, why don't you have a cup of coffee first, and I'll take out my husband's belongings."
"That's okay too.
No need for coffee, we drank it on the way here." Luke declined politely.
"Excuse me." Christian Horn nodded and then entered the bedroom on the first floor.
Xiao Hei whispered, "Why do I feel she is a little cold?"
Luke did not answer, because the purpose of their visit this time was to investigate the $200,000 retainer paid by Thomas Colley to Rohel Horn.
Christian Horn's attitude showed that the other party had found the money and guessed the purpose of Luke and others.
After a while, Christian Horn came over carrying a cardboard box and put it on the coffee table, "These are all left by my husband, I..."
I put it away in advance, but I haven't figured out how to deal with it yet.
If you need it, take it."
Luke looked through the items in the box. There were photo albums, books, and some documents. There were not many things. "Is that all there is?"
"There are also some clothes and tools, which are all placed in the garage." After Christian Horn finished speaking, the topic changed, "Captain Li, have you found the murderer of my husband?"
Luke nodded, "That's right, the case is a bit complicated."
"What's the meaning?"
"Your husband probably committed suicide rather than homicide."
Christian Horn shook his head, "This is impossible, my husband will not commit suicide, we have a very good relationship, and we have two lovely children.
I know him, there is no way he would leave us alone."
Luke said, "After your husband lost his job, he lost his source of income and had to rely on gambling to support the family expenses. He made some money at first, but later lost more money.
As a last resort, he borrowed a loan shark, and in order to repay the loan shark, he became a drug tester.
But he still couldn't repay the loan shark. In the past six months, he had lived a very hard life and was under a lot of pressure.
At this time, a man came to him and told him a way to make money. As long as his death was related to the trial drug, he could get compensation from the pharmaceutical company.
Moreover, the man also promised to give him two hundred thousand dollars.
Mrs. Christian Horne, have you ever seen that two hundred thousand dollars?"
