The World of American Drama: From the Los Angeles Patrol

Chapter 169 He's a Gentleman

The old black hairdresser threw the hot towel into the bamboo basket next to it, "That's because you didn't mess with her. There are not many beautiful girls in the town, and she is the only one that Little Kleiner can't get. What do you think is the reason?" ?”

"It sounds like Mr. Mosley knows the Conklin (Roscoe's surname) family very well?" Jack began to say something, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Before Morrison's stupid pig became the police chief here, Rose Co's adoptive father Gray Conklin was the guardian of this place. When he was there, the Kleiner's little bunnies dared to speed at most .”

When Mr. Mosley spoke, he looked very sad.

"Conklin is a good guy. I don't understand why a nice guy like him would choose to kill himself in the garage."

Jack vaguely remembered that the death of Rothko's adoptive father was not that simple, and he couldn't remember the specifics, but it must have something to do with the Kleiner Foundation.

While chatting, the two watched Leicher and the two young men confront each other through the glass window. After a while, Leicher came back, and the two cubs of the Kleiner family also drove away.

"Did they threaten you?" Seeing Reacher's uneasy expression, Jack asked directly.

"Well, they found out some of my past in the army." Although Reicher still looked expressionless, the anger ignited in his eyes was obvious.

"Thank you for your service. I'll see you again when I have a chance, Mr. Mosley." Jack settled the two's bills, and walked out of the barbershop with Reacher.

"Then, now you can talk about your real identity, who are you?" Lei Che finally asked this question.

"LAPD on leave and a temporary IRS investigator."

Jack did not continue to hide, and directly disclosed his identity, and admitted frankly that he came here to help his girlfriend get revenge, and the identity of this IRS investigator was only temporary.

Of course, the crime that the Kleiner Foundation is secretly engaged in is making counterfeit banknotes, and he didn’t mention anything about the incident in Atlanta. Joey Reacher is still in a coma, and everything will come from him when he wakes up. Speak, or you will become a sorcerer of the seer.

After listening to Jack tell what happened to Hannah's family more than ten years ago, Reacher was a little shocked. To be able to rely on members of Congress for a while, and to attack so ruthlessly, this is not an ordinary criminal group.

"What kind of activities is this Kleiner family doing?"

Jack shook his head, "I don't know, they covered it up very deeply. I only found some clues for the time being, and then I met you. I want to be a former army policeman who once led the 'Special Investigation Team of Army Gendarmerie Unit 110' , there must be something special about it.”

"So, you were next door to the conference room?" Reacher reasoned out the 'cause and effect' logically.

"Yes, I don't have the awkwardness of Finlay. I need a partner now, and you happen to be targeted by someone." Jack sent the invitation straightforwardly.

"Uh, in fact, I can leave at any time. You are not the only one with a car in this town." There was a sly smile on Reacher's face that didn't match his simple and honest appearance.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Jack's face, "So, you don't plan to have dinner with that beautiful female police officer tonight?"

"Why don't I think about it and wait until tomorrow?"

Seeing that Reicher was still hesitant, Jack also understood that this kind of thing sounds like bottomless muddy water, and not everyone who has nothing to do with it is willing to take the initiative to take the initiative. The name of the detective in the original play.

But he was not in a hurry, anyway, he was holding a handful of Wang Bo in his hand, so he didn't have to worry about this guy running away.

"Take this mobile phone with my number on it. Even if you don't agree, you can take my car and leave tomorrow morning. I just plan to go to Atlanta tomorrow."

Jack handed him a prepaid cell phone, one he'd bought a dozen on the way here, and it was so easy to use for something untraceable.

After bidding farewell to Reicher, Jack went back to the hotel directly. He called Hannah first and learned that the other big man was still in a coma, but the doctor said that he was recovering very well. Wake up after 24 hours.

After confirming that no strangers appeared in the hospital to inquire about the news, Jack was relieved, explaining that the Kleiner family had not found their whereabouts, so he briefly told Hannah what happened to him for more than a day, and focused on accusing Justin of pranks.

Hannah on the other side of the phone was laughed so hard that she made a bunch of promises about various poses before coaxing Jack into a good position.
Then the phone was handed over to the Wolf Brothers. Jack expressed his gratitude to Chris and Braxton. The brothers were really good at getting along. Just for one of his requests, it can be said that they desperately saved Joey Reacher.

In the end he contacted Justin, and the elder sister had finally dissipated. Jack asked her to help investigate two people, one was Paul Heborg, and the other was Roseko's adoptive father, Gray Conklin.

After a night of silence, Jack unexpectedly received a call from Finlay in the early morning of the next day. His voice on the phone was a little trembling.

"There's another murder. It's Commissioner Morrison...and his wife. Was that guy with you last night?"

"Tell me the address, I'll come with him, don't worry about Reacher, I believe he has sufficient proof of absence."

The rooms of Jack and Reacher were not adjacent, not even on the same floor. In order to avoid some embarrassing situations, he didn't bother to knock on the door, and directly called the mobile phone number that was given to him yesterday.

"Big Jack, something happened. Let's meet downstairs and bring the girl in your arms."

"What's the matter? What girl?" Reacher's voice sounded a little confused, and the surrounding voices seemed to be in the car rather than in the room.

"Huh?" Jack was a little surprised, did he guess wrong?
"You didn't go on a date last night?"

Reacher on the other side of the phone was obviously still a little sleepy, "Last night, Roscoe drove me to a bar outside the town. When we came back, there was a heavy rain, and the road was destroyed by the flood, so..."

"So you didn't come back at all last night? I guess the motel nearby happened to have only one room because there were too many people staying in the road?"

Jack let out a nasty laugh.

There was a long silence on the other side of the phone, and suddenly an angry female voice came out, "Damn it, nothing happened to us, he is a gentleman, he slept on the floor all night, and we are now on our way back."

Jack almost burst out laughing, but it really made him guess right.

"Okay, no kidding, something really happened, I just got a call from Finlay, there was another murder, that Chief Morrison of the Margrave Police Department and his wife were killed last night .”
