North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 260 Private Life

Jimmy got home, put away the things he bought, and went out to have dinner. He went shopping during the day and played squash in the evening. He was really tired, so after dinner, he threw himself on the sofa to watch TV.

Unknowingly, Jimmy was lying on the sofa and fell asleep. Suddenly the phone rang. Jimmy opened his eyes and sat up. He picked up the spare mobile phone from the table. What was Justin doing on the phone at this time?

Jimmy: "What's the matter?"

Justin: "How far away from Long Island do you live? Is it okay to go out now?"

Jimmy: "I'm in Manhattan. It takes a long time to get to Long Island. It mainly depends on the traffic conditions, but I haven't calculated the specific time. What's wrong?"

Justin: "Someone needs a private detective to help investigate a missing property case. I recommended you to him. For you, investigating cases should be your specialty, so there is no problem."

Jimmy: "What case?"

Justin: "A rich man lost an emerald necklace. The price was not high, but it was very important to him. It was inherited from his family. The necklace was usually locked in the safe, but he opened the safe yesterday and found out

The necklace is missing.

Because there are some issues with his identity, he cannot call the police in a big way and let the police investigate, so he can only find a private detective to handle it."

Jimmy: "Is his identity safe? You know that I am the FBI. If something unexpected happens due to my intervention, it may be more troublesome later."

Justin: "Safe, don't worry."

Jimmy: "OK, give me the address and I'll go have a look. I'll decide the fee after I check it."

Jimmy put on his suit, packed his weapons and bullets, and went out with his wallet, keys, and cell phone.

Jimmy regretted it. He really should have bought a car. Now he can only take a taxi at night, which is not convenient at all. But there is no parking space in his apartment. Even if he buys a car, he still needs to park it elsewhere, which is still troublesome.

All in all it's very annoying.

I took a taxi and went straight to Changdao. Fortunately, although the distance was a bit far, the taxi driver was still willing to make this trip. The key is that there are more wealthy people on Changdao and safety is guaranteed.

Jimmy took a taxi to the beachside villa area in Islip, Long Island. He got off the car outside a beachside villa, and the driver turned around and left.

The villa here was not fenced. Jimmy walked directly to the front of the villa and rang the doorbell. A woman walked out and opened the door.

The woman asked: "Who are you looking for?"

Jimmy didn't take out his ID, but just replied: "I'm looking for Mr. Roman Zhukovsky. I was introduced by Justin."

Woman: "Please wait."

After a while, Jimmy saw two people coming from the house. He opened the door and the man in front reached out to shake hands with Jimmy. "Hello, I am Roman Zhukovsky. Please come in."

Jimmy followed Roman into the villa. It looked like the villa was old. The furniture in the house all looked like old-style solid wood, and the paint tended to be dark. Many of them looked old.

Roman took Jimmy to the sofa in the living room, "Please sit down, coffee? Or tea?"

Jimmy: "Coffee, thank you."

The woman standing next to him turned and left.

Roman: "What do you call it?"

Jimmy: "Jerry, Justin told me that there was a case of missing property here. Can you tell me more about it?"

Roman: "Wait a minute."

Roman got up and left. Jimmy watched Roman walk into a room, take out the phone from his pocket and talk to someone. After a while, he hung up the phone, took a photo from the table next to him, and handed it to

Jimmy.

Roman: "This is a photo of my grandmother. The necklace she lost this time was wearing around her neck."

Jimmy looked at the photo carefully. He came empty-handed and didn't bring any equipment. He was just doing basic research, and he didn't necessarily have to find the necklace at night.

Jimmy: "Do you have a magnifying glass? Or a clearer photo of the necklace."

Roman thought for a while, got up and took out a box from the cabinet next to him. When he opened it, there was a pair of old-fashioned glasses and a magnifying glass. "This was left by my grandfather. It should be the only magnifying glass in my family."

Jimmy did not pick up the magnifying glass directly, but took out the disposable gloves he carried with him from his pocket. As an FBI agent, he always wears gloves to prevent his fingerprints from contaminating evidence during the investigation. This is routine.

When it comes to carrying items, in fact, the police also carry them with them.

Putting on his gloves, Jimmy picked up a magnifying glass and looked at the necklace carefully. It was a green and white necklace inlaid with three emeralds. The three emeralds were larger in the middle and the two on both sides were smaller. The photo was in black and white.

But you can also see that the style is very simple.

The material of the necklace itself cannot be seen from this old photo. As for why Jimmy knew it was an emerald, it was because Justin had told him that the missing necklace was an emerald.

The woman just now came over and brought two cups of coffee. Jimmy put down the photo and magnifying glass, reached for the coffee and took a sip, "The coffee is really good. Roman, can I take a look at the scene?"

Roman stretched out his hand and pressed it, "Jerry, you just came here, take a rest and at least finish this cup of coffee."

Jimmy nodded and leaned back slightly on the sofa. His mental eye had been activated. Before, he mainly checked how many people were in the house to prevent unknown dangers. Now, too, because this villa is a bit big, Jimmy's mental eye

It cannot be covered from the door position at all.

At present, it seemed that apart from himself, there were only Roman and the maid in the house. There were two people standing behind the door in the next room, looking like they would open the door and rush out at any time.

Jimmy suddenly sat up straight: "Roman, how many people are there usually here, and how many people were there when the necklace was lost?"

Roman: "There is usually only a servant here, and there is a security guard who is not permanently stationed here, and he usually does not enter the room, but patrols outside. When I go home, I will take two bodyguards with me. They are now

Rest in the next room."

Jimmy checked the number of people and made sure there was nothing wrong. He picked up the coffee and drank it in one gulp. "It's getting late, let's start early."

Roman also put down the coffee cup in his hand, got up and took Jimmy up to the second floor, to a study room. After entering the study room, Roman went directly to the bookshelf, reached out and pushed the bookshelf to the side, and the bookshelf moved to the right.

A few dozen centimeters, revealing the safe hidden on the wall.

Roman: "The necklace is usually kept in this safe." Roman said as he stood in front of the safe and reached out to open the safe. This is an old safe with only one combination disk and one lever. Look at the safe.

The rust around it must have been embedded in the wall for a long time.
