North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 416 Staged Victory

Jimmy continued to use the flashlight to search for abnormalities around him. His mind had scanned it just now, and he really didn't find anything special.

Because the picture scanned by the mind eye actually needs space, that is to say, if it is an object buried in the soil and there is no gap in the middle, Jimmy will not be able to see it, because it is all dark or gray. Clearly observe the voids, and then identify what the shadows are.

At the same time, if the underground thing is a special item, and there is a color difference between the relative color and the surrounding area, it can be seen. This is very rare at present, and Jimmy is not sure if this is the rule.Now you can't see any abnormalities with your mind, you can only observe with your naked eyes.

Jimmy took a closer look at the surroundings and found a slightly higher place next to it. The slope was very low, but the highest point was tens of centimeters higher than the rest of the ground. If there is anything different around it, it is only this place up.

Jimmy swept away an area of ​​fallen leaves with his feet. There was a layer of rotten soil underneath. When he kicked away a small piece, he found a piece of rotten cloth, which rotted after Jimmy kicked it a few times. Buried in rot.

A smell of corruption came, and Jimmy immediately took a few steps back. When he entered the forest, he smelled the smell of corruption, but Jimmy had smelled this smell many times in other forests before, but it didn't smell like this. Strong, he didn't expect this smell to cover up the smell of decaying corpses at the same time. Of course, the soil and fallen leaves above also covered part of the smell.

"FK." Jimmy cursed, turned and left the woods, walked back along his footprints, and carefully searched for the bullet casings as he passed by where he shot.

Jimmy recorded the number of shots he fired, so he looked carefully and counted the number of bullet casings in his hand to determine if there were any omissions.As long as the shell casings are all collected, the warheads don't matter. In this kind of wild environment, no one would look for warheads on the ground.

Besides, the fugitive Rob Reilly was not shot at all, and no one would think that he would shoot when he was taken away later.

Returning to the car, he took back the 44 Magnum shells he drove at the beginning, and after making sure that nothing was missed, he took out his mobile phone and called Hughes.That's right, he didn't call Mahone, but Hughes. There was something wrong with this time, and he needed to communicate with Hughes to see how to arrange it. The reason why he didn't call Mahone was Jimmy Not sure if Mahone knew about the supernatural events.

The phone rang several times before Hughes answered the phone.

Hughes: "Who?"

Jimmy: "Hughes, this is Jimmy. I need you."

Hughes: "Aren't you working on a jailbreak case? What's the matter?"

Jimmy: "Well, we judged from the clues that the two escaped were separated. One went south and returned to Newburgh, and the other fled north. I was chasing Rob Reilly who went north.

After chasing for a day, I found Rayleigh just now, but he was dead. "

Hughes: "What did you do?"

Jimmy: "No, I suspect that he was killed by the wraith. I judged that he needs to avoid other people during the day to prevent being discovered, so he can only escape at night, so I drove slowly on the road here at night to see if there is anyone on the road. There was a figure waving on the side of the road just now, and I found something unusual. She was a wraith, and I had already killed her. Before I killed her, she fled to the woods. I found the dead Lei Lei along the direction of her escape. Judging from the scene, the possibility that the fugitive Rayleigh died of the Wraith is very high."

Hughes was speechless, and he was silent for a while before speaking, "Where are you? Is there anyone else with you?"

Jimmy: "No, I'm chasing Rayleigh alone. Mahone and Felicia went back to Newburgh to chase another fugitive, Brown."

Hughes: "Tell me the location, and I'll arrange someone to support you."

Jimmy: "I don't know the location here, but I can tell you the GPS coordinates. You need someone you arrange to confirm the location by yourself."

Hughes: "Go ahead."

Jimmy turned on the phone, and the FBI's mobile phone has a positioning device, and he can see his coordinates on the phone.After reporting his latitude and longitude coordinates, Jimmy asked again: "By the way, do I need to contact Mahone?"

Hughes: "I'll let him know when it's done."

Jimmy: "OK, I'll just wait here."

Jimmy moved the car a bit, parked it from the middle of the driveway to the shoulder, and turned on the double flashers.Although it is around 3 o'clock in the morning and there are no cars on the road, no one knows if there will be a drag racing gang who will be out of their minds and stage a life-and-death speed on this remote road.

Before they came, Jimmy looked at the road next to the forest, and he went in again, but changed the route and stepped on a few more routes, which is easy to explain.

More than an hour later, the sound of a helicopter came. Jimmy turned on the flashlight and shook it in the direction of the plane. The plane landed directly in a nearby wasteland.

Jimmy walked over with a flashlight, and three people got off the plane. All three of them came to Jimmy with flashlights, "Agent Yang?"

Jimmy nodded: "It's me, thank you for coming to help so late. What's your name?"

The leader reached out to shake Jimmy's hand: "Just call me Mike, and tell me about the process."

Jimmy nodded, the person who can let Hughes call out to deal with things at this time, Jimmy doesn't need to hide too many things, they returned to Jimmy's car, Jimmy pointed Mike to the location where the wraith appeared, and the direction to escape later .

Following this direction, Jimmy led them directly into the woods, to where the fugitive Rayleigh's body was.

Jimmy: "This is the prison escapee Rayleigh I'm chasing this time. When I came in, I found him dead. I very much doubt that he was killed by the previous ghost."

Mike nodded: "Check it out." One of the two people behind walked forward, squatted down next to Rayleigh and began to check.

Jimmy: "One more thing. Look at the mound next to it. I found a decomposed corpse there. I didn't move that place, but I got out of a small area."

Mike shook his head, and the last person behind him walked over. Jimmy held a flashlight to shine on it. He took out a cross from his clothes and whispered something, which was definitely not in English.

Jimmy switched to the mind-eye mode and found no abnormality, which is very strange. Before, whether it was Father Reuter in Little Rock or Father Horton in Dallas, they all cast spells like this. There was no abnormality on their bodies, but they could Use special energy to kill evil spirits.

Moreover, Father Holden seems to be better than Father Reuter. When his cross became like a long sword, Jimmy could see it in the mind-eye state.

The person in front of him was similar to Father Reuter, and Jimmy didn't notice any special energy on the small cross in his hand.

He came to the mound, knelt down on one knee, put the top of the cross on his forehead, and chanted in a low voice. After a while, he looked up at the mound, made some movements that Jimmy couldn't understand, and finally got up and took the cross back .

"There is indeed a special energy residue here. Judging from the scene, this is the highest concentration, but it is currently dissipating. It has indeed disappeared."

Mike turned to look at Jimmy: "How did you do it?"

Jimmy took out the Python revolver, "I could see her, and I shot her, dozens of shots to finish her off, and finally dissipated."

Mike: "I see. How's the body?"

The person who inspected the corpse got up and came to Mike: "There is a special energy residue on the body, and it is basically determined to be the work of the wraith."

Mike nodded, "OK, since it's all right, let's go back first. Jimmy, it's safe here, you can call other support to end this case."

Jimmy's eyes widened. He thought they were here to help him deal with Rayleigh's affairs. Could it be because of the Wraith?Jimmy: "Are you leaving now? How do I explain that I found Rayleigh?"

Mike: "That's your problem, you need to solve it yourself. Come on, let's go back."

The three of Mike were in front, and Jimmy was behind. The group left the forest. Jimmy watched them board the helicopter and take off to return. He was still a little dazed.These three people should be members of the special department. They only deal with special incidents, and their prison escape case has no meaning to them.

Jimmy thought for a while, took out his cell phone and dialed 911 directly.

"911, what's your emergency?"

Jimmy: "I'm FBI Special Agent Jimmy Young, please help me contact the Orange County Sheriff's Office, arrange for two police units to come, and an ambulance is needed."

911: "I need to confirm your identity, Agent."

Jimmy gave a number, asked the operator to record GPS coordinates, and waited in the car.Ten minutes later, a convoy of two police cars and one ambulance rushed over.

Jimmy led them into the forest, "What's the smell?" Jimmy had come in several times, and he was used to it, but it was the first time for the new policemen and first responders to come in, so the smell of corruption was quite strong.

The suspect, Raleigh, was carried on a stretcher by emergency personnel and was to be taken directly to the coroner's office, where his cause of death needed to be examined.

Under Jimmy's guidance, the police saw the corrupted corpse.

Jimmy: "That's why I asked you to come here. When I was chasing the escaped prisoner Rayleigh, I smelled a very bad smell, and then I found this."

The policeman glanced at Jimmy, and the four of them came to the side and exchanged in low voices before returning to Jimmy, "Thank you, Detective Yang, we're taking over here."

Jimmy nodded: "Thank you for your hard work. This has nothing to do with my case. You can handle it yourself. Then I will go back with the ambulance first, goodbye."

The policeman and Jimmy came out together, they had to wait here, and the forensic officers had to wait until dawn to get to work before coming back, so the four unlucky ones could only stay in the police car in a daze.

Jimmy looked at the time, and it was not long before dawn, so he decided not to disturb Mahone and the others to rest, and wait until dawn.

In the coroner's office, Jimmy sat on the couch, drank coffee, and soon fell asleep directly against the couch.

He didn't wake up until the coroner went to work and woke Jimmy up. Originally, staying up all night was not a problem for Jimmy at all. Because of something on his mind, he was still very energetic even in the early morning.When he came to the coroner's office, he relaxed and fell asleep very smoothly, even if he was sitting.

Jimmy stood up and shook hands with him: "Sorry, I was busy last night. FBI Special Agent Jimmy Yang, who is it?"

Coroner: "Dr. Matthew Reese, I've had a call from the sheriff's office."

Jimmy: "Please, please complete the autopsy as soon as possible. Not all the prisoners who escaped this time have been captured yet."

Dr. Matthew Reese nodded, "You take a rest, and I will report to you when the meeting is over."

Jimmy watched Dr. Reese leave. He turned around and poured himself another cup of coffee. Since Dr. Reese told him to wait, he would definitely prioritize his matters.

Jimmy took out his cell phone and called Mahone, who must have been up by this time.

Jimmy: "Hey Mahone, I found him, but he's dead."

Ma Hong: "What's going on?"

Jimmy: "He died in the woods, and now I'm at the Orange County coroner's office, waiting for their autopsy results."

Ma Hong: "Understood, let me know the result."

Jimmy: "Where are you?"

Mahon: "Still looking, the Newburgh police arranged for people to temporarily block the surrounding blocks, but we have limited time and cannot continue to block like this."

Jimmy: "Okay, I'll rush over to find you as soon as there is a result here."

Ma Hong: "Well, that's it, we have to keep looking for someone."

Jimmy hung up the phone, and he was lucky, but Mahone and the others seemed to be unlucky.

Jimmy looked at his watch. There should be enough time. He got up and left. After consulting the security guard, he bought breakfast nearby to fill his stomach first. During yesterday's investigation, except for breakfast, the rest of the time was to eat reserve food. That is biscuits and chocolates, and bottled water in the car, my stomach is already empty.

After breakfast outside and a double espresso, when Jimmy returned to the coroner's office, the autopsy was over and Dr. Matthew Rhys was sitting in his office writing his report.As expected of a coroner, the autopsy and cause of death were completed in such a short period of time.

Dr. Reiss: "Agent Yang, wait a moment, the report will be finished soon."

Jimmy smiled and said, "Don't worry, you go first."

Soon, a printed autopsy report was handed over to Jimmy.Jimmy opened the autopsy report, and the text and photos were flawless.

The fugitive Rob Reilly had multiple frostbites on his body, but there was no external injury on his body and no damage to his internal organs, so homicide can be ruled out.The corpse spots are bright red, the body is stretched in a natural state, there are many bleeding spots in the body, edema occurs in the lungs, edema occurs in the myocardium, and the muscle fibers break, which is consistent with the phenomenon of freezing to death.

Although Jimmy knew that he was actually killed by the wraith, since the coroner gave the conclusion of freezing to death, then Rayleigh must have frozen to death. No matter what, he must have frozen to death, so Jimmy can also Save snacks.

Jimmy thanked the coroner, Dr. Reese, and left the coroner's office with a relaxed expression.

He took out his mobile phone and called Mahon, asking for their location. Jimmy drove to Mahon and his location with the autopsy report, ready to participate in the pursuit of the second person. This time the case was half over.
