Luke was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where did you get the news?"

Inoue Nami hesitated for a moment and said, "My colleague has an informant in the hotel where Henry Lawley lives. It is said that Henry Lawley's team is in chaos."

Luke asked, "How soon will this news be in the news?"

"It should be soon. I just received it."

"Can you delay it for a while?"

"It's impossible. If our TV station doesn't broadcast it, other TV stations may take the lead. This kind of news cannot be hidden at all."

"I understand, I'll treat you to a drink another day." Although this news was exciting, it had nothing to do with him directly.

This news was about to hit the news, and it didn't matter whether it was reported or not. Luxor continued to eat.

…

Robbery and Murder Division 1 Squadron.

When Luke rushed to the office, the team members were all here, and they looked at the TV with unified eyes. The program broadcast inside was the news about the disappearance of Henry Lawley.

Xiao Hei opened his mouth wide, showing his big white teeth, "Oh my god, the bastard we protected yesterday is missing?"

Jenny shook her head, "The words of these journalists are not reliable, maybe they are just a gimmick to attract people."

Jackson analyzed, "Henric Lawley has a campaign team and security guards around him, so the possibility of missing is extremely small."

The deputy captain looked at Luke who had just walked into the office, "Captain, do you have any inside information?"

Luke shrugged, "No, I don't know any more than you do."

The deputy team leader frowned, "Then why did you come so late?"

"I'm just simply late."

Vice team "..."

"Haha..." Everyone laughed.

Matthew typed on the keyboard and said, "Actually, this matter is not that complicated. I checked Henry Lawley's itinerary.

According to the original plan, he was going to attend a meeting of the Los Angeles City Hall at 9:40 this morning. If he went, it would prove to be false news.

If they don’t go, reporters will go, and they will definitely report again to confirm the authenticity of their news so as to attract more people’s attention.”

Luke glanced at his watch. It was already nine-thirty-four, and there were still six minutes until the Los Angeles City Council meeting...

Luke didn't go back to his office. He ate the donuts handed to him by the deputy team and chatted with everyone.

"Jingle Bell……"

At nine thirty-nine, Luke's cell phone rang. It was Red's number.

Luke pressed the answer button, "I'm Luke."

"Come to my office."

"Got it." Luke hung up the phone, greeted everyone, and went to the deputy director's office.

"Dong dong..."

"Come in." Rhett's voice came from the office.

Luke walked into the office and saw Rhett answering the phone, signaling him to wait.

Luke walked to the coffee table, poured himself a cup of coffee, and sat on the sofa, drinking coffee by himself.

After making the call, Rhett sat across from Luke and asked, "Have you seen the news about Henry Lawley's disappearance?"

Luke put down the coffee cup, "Look, is it true?"

Reid replied, "Half an hour ago, Henry Lawley's campaign team contacted the city government and said that Henry Lawley was not feeling well today and would not attend today's city meeting. Other activities were also temporarily canceled.

"

Luke touched his chin, "That sounds suspicious."

"You are right. After reading the news about Henry Lawley's disappearance, the mayor also called to inquire, but Henry Lawley did not answer the phone. Henry Lawley's wife denied that her husband was missing.

She just claimed that her husband was not feeling well and needed to rest.

The mayor contacted Chief Regan and asked him to send police officers to the hotel where Henry Lawley lived to maintain order so that no one would be disturbed."

Luke asked, "What does that have to do with us?"

Rhett said, "The director hopes that you will lead the team, and it is best to meet Henry Lawley himself.

After all, these reporters are very well-informed, and if something happens to Henry Lawley in Los Angeles, lapd will also have to bear certain responsibilities."

Luke confirmed, "We are confirming Henry Lawley's condition due to the dispatch of additional police officers."

Rhett nodded, "If Henry Lawley is really unwell and has postponed his activities in Los Angeles, send more police patrols around the hotel where he lives, and you can come back directly."

Luke asked, "What if Henry Lawley really disappears?"

Rhett was silent for a long time, "Then the trouble will be big."

…

Half an hour later, Luke led the team to the Four Seasons Hotel where Henry Lawley lived.

There were many supporters and reporters gathered around the hotel.

Fortunately, there were patrols to maintain order, otherwise, the hotel might have been in chaos.

Luke greeted the patrol officer responsible for maintaining order and entered the Four Seasons Hotel.

After Luke explained his purpose, he was taken to the presidential suite on the third floor of the hotel by hotel employees.

The presidential suite is very large, with 4 rooms, a study room, entertainment room, dining room and living room.

At this time, many people gathered in the living room, which looked messy.

A brown-haired white man with a beer belly came over and said, "Hello, I am Henry Lawley's campaign manager, Hans Dragon."

"Hello, Mr. Hans Dragon.

I'm Captain of the Robbery and Murder Division, Luke Lee.

Responsible for security at Plaza Posta yesterday."

Hans Dragon said with a smile, "Thank you for everything you did for our campaign team.

Please sit down, Captain Li, what do you want from me?"

Luke did not sit on the sofa, but stood and glanced around, "I'm not here to see you, I'm here to see Mr. Henry Lawley."

"Unfortunately, Henry Lawley is not feeling well at the moment and the doctor said he needs to rest.

If you have anything, you can tell me and I will convey it to you."

"I'm here to visit Mr. Henry Lawley on behalf of the city government and the Los Angeles Police Department. I just need to see him once and it won't waste too much time."

"Sorry, I told you that Henry Lawley needs to rest now and it is not convenient to see people."

Luke walked to the window, "Did you see the news this morning about the disappearance of Mr. Henry Lawley?"

Hans Dragon smiled and said, "Look, those journalists like to talk nonsense the most, don't they?"

"You think it's nonsense, but they don't think so." Luke pointed out the window, "Many reporters and supporters have gathered around the hotel entrance. If the police hadn't stopped them, they might have barged in at any time.

It may really affect Henry Lawley's rest."

Luke turned to look at Hans Dragon. He had already said this. Normal people should know what to do?

Hans Dragon fell silent, with a troubled look on his face.

At this moment, a white woman wearing a black dress walked out of the restaurant. She was tall and had a good temperament. "Hans, tell him."

Hans Dragon sighed softly, still hesitant.

The white woman walked over and said softly, "The matter has reached this point and we can't hide it anymore."

Luke looked at the white woman and asked, "Ma'am, are you Mrs. Lawley?"

The white woman turned her head and said, "Yes, it's me."

"Madam, I would like to meet your husband, Mr. Henry Lawley."

Mrs. Lawley pursed her thin lips and said, "I want to see him more than you do."

"So, the news about Mr. Lawley's disappearance is true?"

"That's right." Mrs. Lawley sighed, "He is indeed missing."

"Wait a minute." Hans Dragon interrupted the two of them and said helplessly, "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the study to talk."

Later, Luke followed the two into the study and asked, "Mr. Dragon, you don't seem to trust your campaign team very much."

Hans Dragon closed the door, "No, it's not that I don't trust them, but I'm worried that it will cause panic. The fewer people who know some things, the better."

"If I hadn't come, how long would you have planned to hide the news about Mr. Henry Lawley's disappearance?"

Hans Dragon and Mrs. Lawley looked at each other and explained, "It's not that we deliberately concealed it, but we haven't thought of a countermeasure yet.
