A few minutes later, in the employee parking lot at the back entrance of the hotel, Jack and Hannah sat in the Hellcat and watched the restaurant manager named Rod Det change into casual clothes and walk out of the back door with a fearful expression, driving a Toyota. The pickup leaves.

"Do you think he will be the murderer?" Hannah put on a body armor.

After the Toyota pickup truck drove a certain distance, Jack started the Hellcat and followed slowly, "It's hard to say, but this guy has a criminal record. According to the information found by the combat center, he had stalked, harassed and threatened a woman online. He was arrested and sentenced to four years.

I actually stayed there for less than a year. I was released on bail half a year ago and am still on bail. "

"So these people have to lie about their tattoos?" Hannah was surprised. The five black dots indicated that they had been in there for five years. This guy obviously came out in less than a year.

"Some people regard prison life as a kind of qualification and think that they can attract the opposite sex more. This guy should be such a person." Jack curled his lips disdainfully.

Strictly speaking, North Salem can only be regarded as a small town. The town center is very small. It takes less than 10 minutes to drive to the suburbs. The Hellcat is far behind the Toyota pickup truck and drives into an old forest. residential area.

Jack stopped the car, put on his body armor, and checked his firearms as usual. In this country, even if you are catching a thief, you have to be careful. Who knows if the other party will suddenly take out a small pistol from his pocket.

Rod Det obviously didn't expect that he would be followed. He got out of the car and rushed directly into a wooden house. Jack looked at the location and found that it was consistent with the registered residence address of this guy in the information sent by Jubal.

During the parole period, the parole officer enforces different bail regulations based on the severity of the crime committed by the criminal. For cases like Ted's, which are not serious, he only needs to report the situation regularly and make an occasional home visit, but he certainly cannot change his residence at will.

"I'll knock on the door, and you're responsible for blocking the rabbit hole." Jack pulled out his pistol and tilted his head in the direction of the backyard, while Hannah knowingly walked around to the back door of the house.

"Det, FBI, open the door!"

As Jack banged the door hard several times, there was a pinging sound in the house, followed by the thumping sound of someone running on the floor, and finally the sound of the door opening from the direction of the backyard.

Then there was nothing more. When Jack went around to the backyard, he saw Rod Det, who was lying on the ground and groaning, clutching his chest, and Hannah, who was handcuffing him.

If this guy is really a murderer, he's probably the dumbest and best serial killer they've ever caught. There's a smashed laptop at Rod Det's feet. It's obviously him rushing home. reason.

"Let me guess, is there something shameful in this?" Jack smiled at him.

"I have the right to remain silent." Rod Det received a blow from Hannah so hard on the stomach that he couldn't even straighten his waist.

——

A certain guy's stupidity was even a bit unexpected. The laptop was almost intact except for the LCD screen, and the geeky technician from the IT department easily restored the data inside.

Hannah frowned and flipped through some unsightly pictures on the tablet, showing a scowl to Jack, "Are you sure you want me to be responsible for interrogating this bitch?"

"Maybe this is the first serial murderer you've caught personally. Are you sure you want to hand over the credit to someone else?" Jack said with a bad smile.

"Okay, okay, I'll prepare the information." Hannah rolled her eyes, looking unmotivated.

At this time, Aubrey and Isobel also returned to the combat center. They visited the husbands of the other two victims. It cannot be said that they found nothing at all, but they did not get any important clues.

"I even asked the neighbors around the two families' residences. There was nothing suspicious. They were ordinary young couples. There were no noise complaints or suspicions of domestic violence."

Isobel looked helpless. It was obvious that as a newcomer, she really wanted to show off in this case, but she had no luck.

“The husbands of both families said that their wives had been accosted and harassed by some boring men, but given the victim’s appearance, it seemed to be within an acceptable level, and there were no police reports or physical restraining orders regarding stalking. "

Aubrey sighed after explaining the situation, his face full of envy, "I heard that you have caught a suspect?"

Hannah was quite speechless and handed him the tablet in her hand, "That idiot is so stupid. I feel something is wrong. I am preparing to interrogate this guy later."

Aubrey took the tablet, and both he and Isobel, who was standing next to him, looked like "the old man on the subway looking at his phone."

Rod Det has a bunch of poor Photoshop pictures on his computer, similar to those very low-level emoticons, such as putting a beautiful woman's head on a pig's body, and then adding a bunch of trash talk.

Of course, there would be no big problem if they were just photoshopped pictures of this level, but the object of one of the pranks was none other than Beatrice Santos, one of the victims.

Rod Det brought Beatrice Santos and a dog together in an unspeakable pose.

"Are you sure this guy is not the murderer? This is a very strong connection and shows full of malice." Aubrey was a little surprised.

Hannah glanced at Jack and saw that he smiled and said nothing, knowing that he was thinking the same thing as her, "The murderer's method of disposing of the body cannot be said to be very clever, but it was indeed carefully considered. If it weren't for some accidents, the police might still have done it." The bodies could not be found.

And the bastard we caught, how should I put it, I feel that this guy's IQ and courage are not enough to support him to commit such a crime, but who knows, maybe my intuition is wrong, or maybe we just got lucky this time Yes, you will know if you examine it. "

Jack smiled and said to Aubrey, "Are you interested in interrogating this guy with Hannah?"

Aubrey rubbed his hands in anticipation and confusion, "It's just that my luck seems to be bad recently. Two female friends have blocked me in a row."

Compared to Jack, this guy is a real "Aquaman". Before entering the FBI, Aubrey made a lot of money on Wall Street and basically achieved financial freedom.

His so-called female friends are basically beautiful young actors or models who are not yet famous, the kind who only talk about sex but not love. According to him, he has some intimacy phobia and is afraid of getting too close to others in his love life.

Intimacy phobia is a common psychological problem, not a disease. It is mainly manifested by deliberately keeping a distance in interpersonal communication and refusing excessive intimacy.

In fact, many people in modern society have a similar situation. They are eager to make friends with others, but they are also worried about making wrong payments, which leads to anxiety and slowly begins to avoid close relationships and keep a distance from everyone around them.

Of course, this situation can also rise to personality disorder, which is another matter.

Jack sneered at his statement. Aubrey's emotional intelligence didn't have such a problem at all. Everything was just an excuse for "Aquaman".

In the past, it was only a few delicious meals that made this foodie know everything and talk about everything. The past experiences were explained as cleanly as pouring beans through a bamboo tube. Although it was not possible to say that we were completely heart-to-heart with each other, it was definitely okay to say that we were friends.

Jack put Hannah and Aubrey in charge of the interrogation not because he didn't care about the case, but because it was basically foreseeable now. This was one of the few major cases they handled before the wanted criminal team was formally established.

Although he is very confident in the teammates he has chosen, he also needs to know more about it. After all, everyone has a different style of handling cases and has their own focus. Jack hopes to see everyone's different performances under pressure so that he can do better in the future. division of labor and cooperation.

Hannah and Aubrey took a moment to prepare the information and entered the interrogation room, while Jack and Jubal walked into the observation room next door.
