Los Angeles Detective

One o'clock.

The team members returned to the office one after another.

Susan called everyone into the conference room for a meeting.

She took a sip of coffee to refresh herself, "Guys, tell me about the progress of your investigation.

Raymond, you go first. "

"We investigated the situation of Abu Guerra, he is Lucas's substitute, and his physical characteristics are very similar to Lucas's." Said, Raymond put a document on the projector,

deceased, Abu Guerra

Mobile number, 626 843 3123

Date of Birth, May 2, 1988

Address, 132 Harvey Street

Social Security Number, 623-52-7767

profession, actor

Raymond continued, "The deceased was not a native of Los Angeles. We have contacted his parents and asked them to come to the police station to identify the body."

Susan added, "I notified the forensic doctor. When Abu Guerra's parents come, they will have a DNA test. I will keep an eye on this matter to determine the true identity of the deceased.

Tell me about your interrogation. "

Luke organized his language, "We made a record for Lucas, and he refused to admit that he had anything to do with Abu Guerra's death.

In his words, they just used Abu Guerra's death to create hype and achieve the goal of selling the movie.

The behind-the-scenes instigator is director Bell Grue.

In addition, according to him, producer Rosie Bill was also involved in the matter. "

The deputy team continued, "The situation on our side is similar. Innosha Soest admitted that she deceived the police and deliberately mistook Abu Guerra's body for Lucas.

The purpose is to create an influence on public opinion and help the film to promote and build momentum. In addition, I also hope that my husband will have a topic and regain popularity.

She also admitted that she was instigated and even threatened by director Bell Grue.

In his words, if they disagree, Bell Gru will probably block Lucas.

And according to director Bell Grue, the producers acquiesced in the matter.

In short, the confessions of the husband and wife are very similar, either telling the truth or colluding. "

Luke added, "We offered to check Lucas for any injuries and he agreed.

After testing by Marcus, Lucas had no teeth marks on his body. He should not be the murderer who killed Abu Guerra, at least not himself. "

The deputy team said, "We also asked the female police officer to examine Enoch Soest's body, but she refused. From my experience, when they react, they will definitely ask a lawyer to help with bail.

We can't keep them locked for long if we can't find new leads. "

Susan concluded, "From the current situation, in addition to Lucas and his wife, director Bell and producer Rossi are also suspected of participating in forging evidence, at least the two of them are insiders."

Luke added, "The assistant director is the informant, and he was also the first to find the body and the first to identify Lucas. I think he is also suspected. He is probably one of the accomplices."

Jenny asked, "Why is it forging evidence, shouldn't it be homicide?"

Luke explained, "There is currently no evidence to prove that they are the murderers of Abu Guerra. We can investigate secretly, but there is no way to use this excuse to summon."

I think for the convenience of investigation, we can temporarily divide it into two cases.

The first case is the murder of Abu Guerra.

The second case is the use of Abu Guerra's body to fake the death of Lucas.

Although the two cases may be committed by the same group or the same person, before there is enough evidence, the other party will definitely report it as a fluke.

Simply split the two cases to make the complicated case simpler. As long as they admit to one of the cases, they may reveal clues to the other case intentionally or unintentionally during the interrogation process.

Once there are logical problems before and after their confessions, it will prove that they lied in this place, and we can follow the clues to investigate. "

Susan nodded, "That's a good idea. According to the existing evidence, both Bell and producer Rossi are involved in the case of perjury, but there is no evidence that they are related to Abu Guerra's death.

Even if we ask about the murder of Abu Guerra, they will definitely not admit it.

Then interrogate the clues of the perjury case first, and convict one of them. As long as the people are controlled, we have the name of investigation. As for the content and method of the investigation, it is within the operable range. "

The deputy team suggested, "I suggest summoning director Bell and producer Rossi overnight to prevent these two from colluding."

Susan asked concerned, "Deputy team, can you handle the investigation all night?"

"My own body, I know it well, if I am tired, I will find a place to rest by myself."

Susan didn't say any more, and directly arranged the task, "Luke and Marcus are responsible for summoning the director Bell.

Raymond and Jenny are tasked with subpoenaing producer Rosie. "

...

It was two o'clock in the morning.

Bell's house.

Bell is an old bachelor who has never been married. He usually lives alone and hires a nanny to clean up on time.

The second floor was transformed into a theater, and the decoration and equipment alone cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

At this time, the movie "Special Warfare" was playing in the theater, and Bell Grew was the only one in the audience.

He watched it very seriously, as if he was watching this movie for the first time.

This movie is very important to him, and it is the movie with the highest box office and the best reputation he has been in the industry for many years.

He also became famous with this movie.

But this movie is like a spell that he can never break again.

Since then, he has also directed some films, and his reputation is mediocre, the box office is not very high, and his reputation in the industry is not as good as before.

Many people say that he is exhausted.

He doesn't admit it.

He himself couldn't understand why the special warfare was so popular back then?

This is an action-revenge movie with no connotation and mediocre shooting techniques, but it just became popular.

When many people mention him, they will think of special warfare.

It made him happy but also a little depressed.

He has always wanted to surpass his previous work and make another better movie, with word-of-mouth and box office reaching new highs.

It is possible to let the world know that he is capable. He did not rely on luck and bonuses to become popular in special warfare, but relied on his own talent.

"Boom boom."

He heard a faint knock on the door.

Bel Gru frowned slightly, who would come so late?

After pausing the movie, I went downstairs to check the access control. It was the handsome black-haired policeman.

After hesitating for a moment, Bel Gru opened the door and said in a slightly dissatisfied tone,

"What's the matter knocking on the door so late? You better give me a reasonable explanation."

Xiao Hei smiled and said, "I want to tell you that the special battle heroism you filmed is shit."

Bel Gru was stunned, "Are you out of your mind? Just to tell me this at night.

Disappear from my door immediately, and if you don't get out, I will complain to you. "

Luke smoothed things over, "Director Bell, don't get angry, this is just a joke.

He was just a little outspoken. "

Bel Gru "..."

"You came to me in the middle of the night just to provoke me on purpose?

OK, you have succeeded. "Bell Gru made a gesture to close the door.

Luke pressed his left hand against the door, "We found Lucas."

Bel Gru showed a flustered look, "What nonsense, he's already dead."

"Stop pretending, Lucas has already confessed the fact that you partnered to murder Abu Guerra.

Director Bell, you have been involved in the crime, and in your next life you can only shoot Broken Back Mountain behind bars. "

Xiao Hei winked and smiled cheaply, "Maybe it's the leading role."

Luke glanced at him, "You're really a bitch."

"Thank you for the compliment." Xiao Hei didn't feel proud of being disobedient.

Bel Grue was a little at a loss, "I don't even know what you guys are talking about? I have never killed anyone, and I can't even kill dogs!"

"Although you are a director, your acting skills are really not good, much worse than the Lucas couple." Luke showed the arrest warrant, "Come with us."

...

Police station, interrogation room.

Bell Gru leaned back on the interrogation chair, looking anxious.

Before Luke could ask, he took the initiative to say, "I didn't kill anyone, and Abu Guerra's death has nothing to do with me. You have found the wrong person."

Luke said, "You don't want to explain, we can only accept the testimony of Lucas and his wife. They confessed that you were the mastermind of the case, and you instructed them to kill Abu Guerra.

Want to use Abu Guerra's death to promote the movie.

If proven true, we will charge you with first-degree murder. "

"Don't believe the lies of their husband and wife. They are liars. I have nothing to do with Abu Guerra's death.

I admit that I know that Lucas is not dead, and that it may be Abu Guerra who died, but this does not mean that I have anything to do with Abu Guerra's death. "

Luke took advantage of the situation and asked, "So, you admit that you are the mastermind who faked Lucas' death?"

"I admit that I know about this, but I am not the mastermind, Lucas is the mastermind. I just acquiesced in this matter, and at best I can only be regarded as an accessory."

"Lucas and his wife identified you together, and you are the director. You have the final say on everything on the set. No matter from which angle you look at it, you are more like the mastermind."

"I can explain." Bell Gru was a little panicked. The attitude of the police made him a little scared. He was worried that they would side with the Lucas couple. He took a deep breath,

"I did know about Abu Guerra's murder before the Lucass.

That morning, as soon as I woke up, I received a call from the assistant director, saying that someone died on the set.

I was a little worried and asked who the dead person was.

The assistant director said it might be Lucas.

I called Lucas right away, but his phone was off.

Later, I called Lucas's wife, only to find out that Lucas was not dead.

Only then did we realize that the one who died might be Lucas' substitute, Abu Guerra.

The two of them look alike, otherwise, he wouldn't be Lucas' stand-in. I know the assistant director may have made a mistake.

Afterwards, I hung up the phone and was going to tell the assistant director about it so that he could confirm whether Abu Guerra was dead.

But at this time, Lucas called again and proposed a plan. He hoped to use his suspended animation to help promote and hype the movie.

Of course, this is just his excuse. His real purpose is to become popular through this movie and regain popularity, traffic and topics.

He wanted to be popular and crazy. "

Luke frowned, "Is Akira Kurosawa your idol?"

"I know what you mean, I'm not messing with Rashomon, I have evidence."

"What evidence?"

"I have a recording of the phone call." Bel Grue sighed, this is not something glorious.

Originally, he didn't intend to take it out immediately, but it was difficult for him to deal with it calmly because of these two policemen who played their cards out of common sense.

Bell Gru played a recording on his mobile phone.

【"Director Bell, I have an idea that can make this movie a hit."

"Tell me."

"Remember Paul from Fast and Furious 7?"

"What do you mean, tell me clearly."

"Since everyone in the crew thought I was the one who died, why didn't we just push the boat along and acquiesce in this matter. If a movie actor is killed in the way of a movie plot, it will definitely set off a wave of enthusiasm, and the hype even surpasses Fast and Furious 7. .”

The conversation was silent for a moment, and Bell's voice sounded again, "What should I do if I'm discovered by the police?"

"You've seen a stand-in, he looks a lot like me, the crew would occasionally admit it wrong, let alone the police.

And the dead can't speak, we living can.

After a few days, when the hype is almost gone, I will take the initiative to go to the police station to call the police to prove that I am not dead.

If the police asked me why I hadn't clarified the facts, I would say that I went hiking alone and didn't know anything about the outside world.

I know a few buddies who like to hike, and they do it all the time, and even if the police don't believe it, as long as they don't have evidence, they can't do anything against me. "

There was another silence.

Bell asked, "What do I need to do?"

"I need you to convince producer Rosie that as long as he agrees, this project will work.

And once the police confirmed the news of my death, they would immediately publicize and create momentum to expand the influence of this incident as soon as possible.

I also don't want to delay too long, the longer the delay, the more likely the police will find me.

It is best to have three to five days, which will be more reasonable.

After three to five days, I will take the initiative to stand up and announce to the fans and the world that I am not dead and I am back. "

Bell said, "It's a good idea, and then you'll have something to talk about, and it'll become even more popular."

"Director, it's not just me who can benefit, but everyone related to this movie.

Didn't you always want to make a movie that surpasses "Special Wars", here is your chance. "

There was another silence.

Bell said in a firm tone, "OK, I will contact Rossi.\
