Chapter 596 Big Pie

Luke went up to the bedroom on the second floor full of questions.

Father and son looked at each other, but Luke didn't know what to say.

As a junior, he is not suitable to interfere with the emotional life of his elders.

If you want to ask, Luke's grandparents should ask. Luke's uncle can ask, but he is not suitable as a son.

As an adult, Li Zhaofeng has the right to choose his love life. Even if Luke is dissatisfied with Aunt Chen, there is no reason to separate the two.

Luke opened his suitcase and packed his belongings.

Li Zhaofeng thought for a moment and said, "Luke, it's too late today. I'll talk to you about Aunt Chen when you have time."

Luke nodded. Chen Shuhua was downstairs. It was indeed inappropriate for the father and son to talk behind others' backs.

After packing up his belongings, Luke went downstairs to drink a bowl of soup, chat briefly, and then returned to the bedroom to rest.

Luke was lying on the bed. It was already one o'clock in the morning, but he didn't feel sleepy.

Luke thought about his father and Aunt Chen again.

This thing is indeed a bit sudden, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. My father is not too old and has a good job. He and Jack are not around, so it is normal to find a new partner.

This incident had little impact on Luke. He had grown up and had his own stable career. Even if his father remarried, it would not affect him. He would just treat him as having another relative.

As for the little fat man, Luke is not sure about his reaction. After all, it is difficult to understand his thoughts at this age. However, the little fat man lives in Los Angeles and will not have a direct impact on his life.

Finally, there is Linda. Luke has always felt that Linda has the idea of ​​​​remarrying. I guess she will be a little disappointed when she finds out about this.

But Luke also thinks the problem is not big. Linda and Li Zhaofeng are both adults and have been divorced for many years. It is normal to start a new relationship. Besides, the two have not reconciled after being separated for so many years, which already explains a lot of problems.

.

Thinking about it, Luke fell asleep...

"Didi..."

In the early morning, Li Zhaofeng was making breakfast in the kitchen when he heard a car horn sound coming from outside.

Luke walked down the stairs from the second floor, "Dad, my colleague drove to pick me up.

I go first."

Li Zhaofeng turned around and greeted, "Breakfast will be ready soon. Ask your colleagues to come in and eat together. After you finish eating, you and I will leave."

"No, this case is urgent. We have to rush to the meeting early." As he spoke, Luke went out and saw Louise sitting in the cab waving, and Luke got into the passenger compartment of the car.

Louise started the car and asked, "How did you sleep last night?"

"It's okay." Luke said perfunctorily and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

"I have no appetite in the morning, just a cup of coffee will do."

"Stop by the breakfast shop and I'll buy something to eat.

Are you sure you don’t want anything else? I’m treating you.”

"no thank you."

The two had breakfast in the car and arrived at the FBI's New York office at eight o'clock in the morning.

Luke went to the Criminal Investigation Division office and was warmly welcomed by the detectives.

Criminal profiler Aamir Khan smiled and said, "Luke, I thought you would arrive last night, so I waited all night in vain."

Michael Jeter came over and shook hands with Luke, "Man, welcome back.

I was supposed to hold a welcome party for you, but... it's not very appropriate now.

If you have time, I’ll treat you to a drink.”

Other agents also came forward to greet Luke.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Luke asked, "Michael, who is responsible for the case of Grace Bloomberg's murder, is it you?"

Michael Jeter shrugged, "No, the person in charge of the case is Director Thomas, and our team is mainly responsible for the investigation."

Luke was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the head of the FBI's New York office would personally be responsible for investigating the case. Even if it was only in name, this standard was very high.

After all, this is just a murder case, but the identity of the deceased is a little special.

While everyone was chatting, the office door was pushed open. Negan Thomas walked into the office from the outside and asked directly, "Good morning, guys. Have you found any clues from the surveillance near the crime scene?"

Michael Jeter spread his hands and said, "Sorry sir, we checked the surveillance video all night and haven't found any suspicious vehicles yet."

Negan Thomas looked at Luke aside, "When did you arrive? Was the journey smooth?"

"Arrived in New York at twelve o'clock in the morning.

Sir, I can invest in the investigation of the case at any time."

"Very good." Negan Thomas patted Luke on the shoulder, then pulled up a chair and sat down, looking at everyone, "I don't care what method you use, you must find a breakthrough in the case as soon as possible.

This case cannot be kept secret for long.

Once a case hits the news, it will cause a sensation across the United States and even the world in a short period of time. At that time, our investigation pressure will be even greater.

So, what we have to do is to find the murderer of Grace Bloomberg and solve the case before it comes to light."

Michael Jeter sighed, "Director, I agree with your decision, but it is very difficult to find the murderer before the case is exposed..."

"I know, so I asked Consultant Li to help.

Moreover, if this case was not difficult, the New York Police Department would not ask us to directly take over the investigation of the case." Negan Thomas changed the topic and pointed at Michael Jeter, "Michael, I remember you are still the acting team leader, right?

"

"Yes, sir."

"If you can catch Grace Bloomberg's murderer before the case comes to light, you can become a regular."

Michael Jeter showed a hint of joy, then stopped, "What if the murderer is caught after the case is exposed?"

"How did you get so many ifs? I'm here to hear the progress of your investigation, not to ask you to make conditions.

If you think you can't catch the murderer, just tell me.

I can find someone to replace you now."

"No no no, I can, I will definitely catch the murderer."

"Then do it for me."

Michael Jeter picked up a piece of information from the table, "This is the autopsy report that the medical examiner just completed.

According to the autopsy results, the time of death of the deceased Grace Bloomberg was between 9 pm and 12 pm on October 3.

The fatal injury was on the neck. Someone strangled the neck from behind and suffocated him to death. His arms were also cut off after death.

The deceased showed signs of being dragged and had drunk alcohol before his death.

In addition, the forensic doctor has detected the man's genetic material in the deceased's body and has compared it in the database, but the comparison has not been successful yet."

Negan Thomas touched his chin and thought, "Do you think the person who left genetic material in the body of the deceased could be the murderer?"

Michael Jeter thought for a moment, "If so, that would be simple.

However, I think it is unlikely. If it was the murderer, condoms could have been used. Why should genetic material be left in the body of the deceased?

This is tantamount to leaving irrefutable evidence to the police."

"What do other people think?" Negan Thomas glanced at everyone and landed on Luke.

However, before Luke could speak, Aamir Khan said, "Sir, Michael and I have different views."

"you say."

Amir Khan cleared his throat and said, "This murderer's modus operandi is different from ordinary murderers. He may not only have left genetic material, but also special murder symbols.

This shows that his thinking is different from ordinary people. Based on my experience, he is probably a serial killer. Even if he is not yet, he may continue to kill people.

Suppose, my guess is correct.

Most serial killers have mental problems, and their methods and methods of committing crimes are also different from ordinary murderers. If they want to violate their victims, they probably will not use condoms.

Because this can give them a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

I know this may increase their risk of getting caught, and they know it too.

But most of them kill people to satisfy some abnormal psychological needs. If they are afraid, they will not commit crimes."

"What you two said makes sense." Negan Thomas nodded, looked at Michael Jeter and said jokingly, "Michael, you have to work harder, you have a strong competitor."

Michael Jeter chuckled, "Sir, you don't need to remind me.

I already knew there was a traitor in the group."

Aamir Khan shrugged and said innocently, "I just expressed my analysis."

Negan Thomas seemed to have some discomfort in his neck. He twisted it and asked Luke, "Counsellor Li, tell me what you think?"

Luke said, "Actually, compared with the forensic identification results, I am more curious about why the wife of the mayor of New York City drove alone to the mountainside of the suburbs late at night?"
