The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol

The sound of rain outside gradually stopped. Jubal hung up the phone and returned to the bedroom with a gloomy face. He happened to see Jack reaching out and closing the dead man's eyelids, and couldn't help but sigh.

"The ERT team is already on the way, and the Pittsburgh office has sent another team over. It will take some time."

Jack's eyes roamed around the room, and finally stopped on a picture frame on the bedside table of the deceased, "Give me a daily photo of Madison Hargrove and a photo of the previous attempted rape victim."

"I have it here." Hannah took out the tablet from her waist and opened it to bring up two photos.

Jack took the tablet, then picked up the photo frame on the table and placed the photos on the tablet together. Everyone opened their eyes wide and instantly understood what he meant.

"They look like sisters." Jiejie murmured.

"Ronnie's modus operandi seems to be random, but the targets he chooses are not. These girls are all typical American sweethearts." Jack looked at Hannah when he spoke.

Because Hannah's appearance is also of this type. Different from the pig kidney face or snake face of those internet celebrities on the Chinese Internet in her previous life, the traditional American sweetheart face can be directly referred to Rachel, that is, Jennifer in "Friends" ·Aniston.

Similar ones include Meg Ryan and Little Red Riding Hood's Amanda Seyfried.

Big and lively eyes, a delicate and small nose, plump and attractive red lips, a pretty chin and blond hair. The most important thing is the plump but not obtrusive apple muscles on her cheeks.

Of course, this is just the standard for sweetheart faces. Another standard for American sweethearts is to have the temperament of a girl next door. Otherwise, "Black Widow" Scarlett Johansson, Taylor Swift and Anne Hathaway can also be selected.

"So he has been repeating the same thing, repeatedly torturing and killing the same type of women, as if he was targeting the same person." Aubrey said with a confused expression.

——

An hour and a half later, after handing over the scene with the county police, state police and ERT team who arrived, Jubal and Jiejie returned to the command vehicle, and everyone in the conference room was continuing the previous discussion.

"Ex-girlfriend?" Hannah hypothesized.

"His partner was released at the school dance?" Jie Jie was the last to get in the car and pulled the car door.

"Or maybe it's his family." Jack never underestimated the perversion of perverts. He turned to look at Alice, who had been busy in front of the computer. "Does Ronnie have any sisters or cousins?"

"If we don't find out, he doesn't have a father. His mother has been wandering around with him since he was a child. His current whereabouts are unknown. Maybe we won't be able to find her until the next time she is arrested for selling silver."

Although Alice did not participate in the action just now, the photos that people sent back from the scene made her somewhat recovered mood fall to the bottom again.

"Am I the only one who has this doubt? It seems that Ronnie's follower, Lei Lin, looks completely different from his target." Clay seemed to have adjusted his emotions.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the photo of Raylene Parker on the screen. She had a small round face and brown hair. She was not very good-looking, and her eyes were a little crazy.

"Because she may be another role for Ronnie." Jiejie poured herself a glass of water.

"For example? A spare sexual release tool?" Aubrey, who has always been good-tempered, also got a little carried away.

"Bystanders, or witnesses, are responsible for providing a sense of recognition while appreciating his crimes." Jiejie analyzed, "Lei Lin is his emotional partner, and the victims are the tools to vent."

"It looks like that girl almost became someone else's partner before." Alice displayed a screenshot of the web page on the screen, "Jack said that just because they don't have a social account, it doesn't mean they won't appear on other people's social accounts.

So I prioritized the social accounts of people around the same age as Raelynn in West Virginia, where she had been living, and found this one. "

This is a boy's Facebook page. On it is a sweet photo of him and Lei Lin. The two of them are showing a white snowflake paper cutout in their hands.

Jubal squinted his eyes slightly and leaned closer to the screen to read the content on the Facebook page carefully, "Beau Parsons of Harrisville, West Virginia. It says they just got engaged?"

"Who's interested in taking a trip? Maybe we can get some information from him." Jack suggested.

Hannah hugged Jiejie and volunteered, "Let's go."

West Virginia is just south of Pennsylvania, and the two of them rushed back that night. At this time, Jack had set up a grill outside the command vehicle and was frying steaming beef on the pan.

Both Pennsylvania and West Virginia have their own gourmet dishes, from a Philly cheese-and-beef sandwich to a pepperoni roll.

There’s nothing much to say about the Philly Cheese Beef Sandwich. As you can tell from the name, it’s beef sandwiched between bread, but it’s not a whole piece of beef, but minced beef with onions and melted cheese. It’s a calorie bomb.

Pepperoni rolls are a little more complicated and look a bit like a croissant with slices of sausage inside.

Pepperoni, also known as Italian salami, is a popular sausage flavor in the United States, marinated with chili powder, garlic, pepper and wine.

Compared with other types of sausages, Italian salami has a somewhat unique appearance, with an extra layer of white mold on the surface produced by natural fermentation and air-drying.

What to do when team morale is low? Naturally, the solution is to use a delicious meal. There is an oven and a refrigerator in the car. Put a grill and a few folding tables and chairs outside the car, light a small bonfire, and a simple picnic camp is enough. nailed it.

Smelling the fragrant barbecue and bread, everyone couldn't help but smile on their faces. Hannah, who was already hungry from traveling back and forth, suddenly had her eyes shining brightly. If not for everyone present, she might not have pounced on Jack right away. .

After enjoying the delicious food, everyone sat lazily on the couches and didn't want to move. Probably the blood had gone to the stomach to help digestion, and even the brain seemed to have slowed down a lot.

Jack threw two cans of beer to Hannah and Jiejie, "Tell me what you have learned. In addition to what you said on the phone before, Ronnie's mother may currently live in Ravenswood, there are other clues." ?"

Jiejie took out an evidence bag from her pocket, and inside it was the white snowflake paper-cut in the previous photo.

"Beau Parsons is also disabled. He suffered a traumatic stroke due to a concussion while participating in a football game at the age of 16. He now works in his father's musical instrument store.

He and Lei Lin met at a treatment camp, which was an 'equine therapy' camp for brain-injured patients. They had only known each other for less than three months. All they knew was that Lei Lin had lost her parents after a car accident and had been living in various places. Sanatoriums come and go.

Lei Lin made this for him before they got engaged. Poor man, the only thing that accompanies him now is music. "

"What about Ronnie?" Jubal continued. "Does he know Ronnie?"

A strange expression appeared on Jie Jie's face, with a hint of bewilderment in her hesitation, "He said that when he and Lei Lin went to Wal-Mart to buy daily necessities, they met Ronnie.

Ronnie took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Lei Lin and said that they had known each other since they were children. The next day, Lei Lin disappeared and left a message saying that she was going to give birth to Ronnie's child. "
