Los Angeles Detective

Chapter 84 Opportunity

Robinson Apartments.

Hans just made dinner, a pasta, a fried fish steak, and a glass of red wine.

"Ding dong..."

A doorbell rang.

Hans took off the apron and threw it on the dining table.

He walked to the door, clicked on the video call, and saw a woman standing at the door, which was the female police officer Jenny.

Hans frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and opened the door, "Officer Jenny, what do you want?"

After opening the door, more police officers appeared on both sides of the wall.

Jenny showed the search warrant, "Mr. Hans, we need to search this apartment according to the law. Here is the search warrant."

"Why? Why are you searching my apartment."

Jenny explained, "As far as we know, this apartment belongs to Mrs. Anna, and she wanted to live in this apartment when she left 'Tellson Manor'. We suspect that the case back then has something to do with this apartment.

We are conducting a routine search now, please cooperate. "

Hans said, "Wait, it's been twenty years, and it's impossible to find any clues here."

Jenny said, "Mr. Hans, haven't you always wanted to find that precious oil painting? We suspect that Mrs. Anna hid that oil painting in this apartment, probably in an imperceptible corner."

Hans' complexion changed slightly, "Impossible, I've cleaned the whole room, if there is that painting, it's impossible for me not to see it."

With a strong tone, Jenny took out the search warrant again, "This is the search warrant, please cooperate."

Afterwards, the police officers on both sides rushed in, and Hans was powerless to stop him.

When Hans saw Luke who had just walked in, he seemed to have grasped at straws, "Officer Luke, why did you search my residence? You don't suspect that I hid the oil painting, did you?

The painting itself is mine, and I have no reason to do so.

What's more, you know me well, I'm not that kind of person. "

Luke nodded, "Mr. Hans, I trust you.

Don't worry, as long as they can't find anything, they can prove your innocence.

When the time comes, I will report to the captain and hold them accountable. "

Hearing this, Xiao Hei grinned from the sidelines, he made you do both good and bad guys, what a sinister guy.

Hans opened his mouth, but didn't say anything else, as if he already knew what to do.

Sitting on the sofa in a daze.

After about a few minutes, Raymond yelled, "Hey, found it under the bed in the bedroom."

Luke walked over to check, and Raymond was holding a cardboard box 60 centimeters long and 40 centimeters wide in his hand. After opening it, there was a white paper bag made of special material, which contained an oil painting.

In the dark night, white snowflakes fell all over the place.

It was the lost oil painting - Snowy Night.

Luke pointed to the oil painting and asked, "Hans, don't say you haven't found this oil painting in twenty years?"

Hans covered his face and began to cry, "Sorry, I didn't mean to lie, but I really can't help it.

Back then, my business failed. I wanted Anna to help me and get me some funds, but she refused.

After she disappeared with her child, my business plummeted even more.

I urgently needed a sum of money to invest in the company, and I thought about that oil painting.

I thought about selling the oil painting, but the oil painting has been passed down for three generations, and I don't want the oil painting to be sold from me.

I don't want to disgrace the ancestors of the Miller family.

So, I thought of fraudulent insurance, falsely claiming that the oil painting was stolen.

I invested the fraudulent insurance money into the company, thinking that the matter would be settled after I made money.

But the company is in a sunset industry, just like Nokia, which was in full swing in the past, when you are abandoned by the times, no matter how much money you invest, it is tantamount to drinking poison to quench your thirst.

I've been guilty of it all these years, and it's the only thing I've ever done wrong..."

Luke asked, "Where was the painting hidden before?"

"Tellson Manor, when I saw you and Police Officer David in the manor, I was afraid that the oil painting would be found by you. After you left the manor, I sneaked into the manor again and took the oil painting away." Hans sighed.

"It's been so many years, how do you know that the oil painting is in my hands?"

Luke replied, "Exclude all possibilities, and the rest is the truth."

Hans said helplessly, "I'm about to meet my daughter, but I set a bad example. Sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you..."

David came over in handcuffs, "We're arresting you for insurance fraud.

You have the right to remain silent and everything you say to any police officer..."

Hans pleaded guilty.

Cindy Botu also reached a plea deal, admitting that she encouraged Tony to kill Shuart.

In exchange, police will charge her with second-degree murder.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully solving the 'Tellson Manor Disappearance Case' and rewarding thirty lucky draw opportunities. 】The system sound sounded in Luke's head again.

The option menu appears in the mind, and the warehouse interface is on the left.

There is a lottery interface on the right.

This time, he got 30 lottery chances, which was the most lottery chance, and indirectly proved that the case was the most difficult.

After all, it was an unsolved case twenty years ago. Apart from ability, luck is more important.

lottery!

The pointer turns.

Stop randomly, the selected area lights up, and a thousand dollars.

Continue to draw...

Drawn 30 times in a row and got $27,000 and three cards.

Two old cards, one adventure card, one precision card

a new card.

Identification card [Active card, the specific function is unknown. 】

The system warehouse now has a reserve fund of 71,000 US dollars and 8 cards.

Adventure cards, 3 pieces.

Accurate card, 2 pieces.

Bullet avoidance card, 1 piece.

Probe card, 1 piece.

Identification card, 1 piece.

Luke only had a little over a thousand dollars on hand, of which he borrowed a thousand dollars.

He urgently needs to realize the 71,000 yuan reserve fund.

Luke called Boret again and asked if he still wanted the warehouse to be auctioned off.

This guy was too scared to speak for a long time.

Every time Luke comes to the storage center, something happens.

He was really scared.

In the end, under Luke's persuasion, he learned that there would be an auction two days later.

...

In the next two days, we will start to enter the closing stage.

Twenty years have passed since the case, and many files and evidence need to be reorganized and collected, which is very troublesome to deal with.

Luke hated messing around with these files, and would fish with Marcus whenever he got the chance.

Drink a cup of coffee, go to the bathroom, and chat for a while, and the whole morning will pass.

My butt hurts from sitting, so I can go to the gym to exercise.

In the afternoon, I processed a few documents and it was almost time to get off work.

After six o'clock, Luke packed his things on time and was ready to leave work.

This time no one will talk about him again.

You can solve the case without working overtime, and if you talk about overtime, people should say that you are paid for overtime.

At this time, Susan just came back from outside the office, "Luke, come to my office."

Luke thought for a while, he didn't seem to have offended the boss, but he still entered the office obediently.

"Captain, what are your orders?"

Susan pointed to the chair opposite, "Good thing, sit down and talk."

Luke smiled, "Is the 300,000 bonus going to be paid out?"

"The bonus has already gone through the procedures. It is estimated that it will be paid together with the salary at the beginning of the month. What I want to talk about is another matter." Susan took out a document and handed it over.

"Luke, you have done a good job recently and played a key role in solving the 'Taser Robbery Case', 'Will Case' and 'Tellson Manor Disappearance Case'.

At present, the Robbery and Murder Division has two spots for promotion to inspector, and each of the four squadrons can nominate a candidate.

I am ready to recommend you. "

"Wow...thank you Captain."

Luke was a little surprised. This was really a surprise. He didn't expect that he would get a chance to be promoted so quickly.

Inspector Luke.

Sounds pretty good.

"Don't be too happy, there is only a 50% chance of promotion. During this time, perform well and don't do anything out of line."

"Yes, captain."
