Blackstone Code

Half an hour later, Michael's wife was taken to the hospital, and the police left after investigating the scene.

They think this is a very common and obvious case of burglary and assault. To be honest, such cases are not new in Baylor Federation. Get some banknotes.

But the police didn't find nothing. At least they thought that the escaped criminals were very likely to be very familiar with Michael's home. They knew that Michael had gone on a business trip, that the child was still in school and hadn't come back. Michael's wife was the only one at home.

Even the robbery turned into an assault, and in the eyes of the police, it became a piece of evidence that the criminal probably knew the family—hate.

The empty house was pitch black and empty. Lynch opened the courtyard door with gloves, entered the courtyard, and closed the courtyard door again.

He took homemade lockpicking tools out of his pocket—a twisted piece modified from a wine opener, and a pick modified from a crochet hook, both of which can be bought in hardware stores and tool stores.

The principle of old-fashioned door locks is very simple. In layman's terms, the lock cylinder can be twisted after the bullet core is pushed into the bullet hole, and the door will be opened.

This is easy to do if you use a key, but without a key you need to add a certain amount of torque to the lock cylinder.

The torque will cause a negligible misalignment between the lock cylinder and the bullet hole. It is this negligible misalignment that is enough to prevent the cores pressed into the bullet holes from falling out. position, the door will be opened.

After rattling on both sides, there was a click in the door lock. Lynch looked around, twisted the doorknob, and entered the room along the crack of the door.

The room was a little messy. When the police came to collect evidence just now, he stayed here for a while. He took out the flashlight he carried with him, lit it, and touched the second floor.

A few minutes later, he found the study of this house.

What people didn't expect was that Michael, the grumpy investigator, still liked to read books. Looking at the rows of books arranged in a regular manner, Lynch always felt that Michael's books had been read into the dog's stomach.

He rummaged around and found a safe, but he didn't move it.

He had learned how to open this kind of old-fashioned safe. In fact, as long as he mastered the principle, it would not be difficult to open the lock. This kind of old-fashioned rotary combination lock is essentially a wheel set.

The scales of different wheels are changed by turning left and right at intervals. When the scales are aligned, a small reed attached to the wheels, or a card slot will be on the same line. At this time, turn the switch and lock The tongue can be unimpededly retracted into the cabinet door.

Some movies use a stethoscope to distinguish the sound of the internal rotating wheel. It was indeed useful at the beginning, but soon the manufacturer fixed this obvious drawback, and it was difficult to hear any movement.

However, for skilled craftsmen, it is easier to feel through the hand, of course, this is a digression.

The safe is nothing more than some money, a piece of evidence that is useful to Michael but useless to himself, a notebook or something else, which is not consistent with his purpose of sneaking here.

He turned around in the room, opened several drawers under the desk, and found some small change in the drawer on the right, and he had a plan in mind, and put the gold ring he carried with him into the penultimate place. Two drawers, and restored everything to its original appearance, checked it before leaving.

That's one of his main purposes today, to put that gold ring in Michael's house, and then he needs to solve some other problems, masthead.

The masthead had already escaped smoothly at this time. The police detection rate in this era is a bit outrageously low. In order to protect personal privacy and public privacy issues, and other reasons, Baylor Federation does not have any monitoring system.

This also means that all physical appearance and external characteristics related to the suspect are derived from the indirect provision of some clues and the dictation of some witnesses.

If there are no witnesses, for example, Lynch's room theft case, it is basically difficult to be solved, unless the suspect is killed in the process of the next crime, and the interrogator's skills are outstanding, so that people can make people who have done it before. Everything is explained.

Otherwise, don't expect the police to do anything.

The nature of this case is a little serious, and it also involves the investigation team leader of the Taxation Bureau. The Sabine City Police Department has sent some additional personnel. They are still waiting, waiting for Michael's wife to recover from the panic, and waiting for her Provide a more accurate look of the suspect.

The security guards in the community provided a sketch of the suspect's appearance, but they were confronting each other on the first floor without lights. All the light was based on the brightness of the street lights in the community. The security guards used too many ambiguous words to describe what they saw. That person, so the appearance sketch obtained through his description does not have much meaning.

At this moment, the masthead they were looking for had returned to his small territory, his heartbeat had just recovered from 180 mph, and only the pistol tightly held in his hand could provide him with some stability.

He felt a little stupid, obviously just wanted to make that woman suffer a little bit, and threatened the other side to see if he could get back the evidence that fell into Michael's hands.

But somehow, a terrible desire suddenly occupied his heart, so that he wanted to make such a move.

Now that his emotions have stabilized, he also realizes that he has made a big mistake. The woman saw his appearance, and it must be the kind of profoundness that will never be forgotten.

Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, there will be arrest warrants with his portrait printed all over Sabine City in less than a week. There are too many people who know him here, and by then he will be dead.

He could already fully imagine Michael's anger—up to this moment, the newspaper head was still afraid of Michael, and he couldn't change this fact.

Although he was a bit reluctant to think of this, he still made a decision to leave here, leave Sabine City, and hide outside.

After a period of time, the limelight has passed, or they simply stay outside and don't come back.

He has money in his hand, and he has saved tens of thousands of yuan over the years, and the money has not been stored in the bank, it is in a shoe box in his room.

He still has a gun. With the money and the gun, he can go to another place to hide his identity, start a small business, or return to his old business.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, ignored the children in the dormitory building, and went straight back to his room, dug out the shoe box from a pile of seemingly worthless garbage, and after tidying up some things he was reluctant to throw away, He went out in the dark.

He thought that no one noticed his actions, but the oldest children in the dormitory noticed his actions.

After he shot a child in the thigh yesterday, the children who seemed to have become docile again actually developed an emotion that the head of the newspaper didn't even realize.

Less than a minute after he left, the oldest children chased him out with the knives they usually use for chopping vegetables and some "picked up" from the construction site, a foot long and a sharpened steel bar.

At the same time, Lynch also chased to this side. When he was thinking about how to solve the header silently, he saw the header rushing out with a bag on his back, followed by several other people. Hasty short man.
