North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 68 New clues

The next day, Jimmy returned to the police station. Although Kag asked him to fill out the report for yesterday's case, he still felt uncomfortable. He tossed and turned all night and fell asleep unsteadily. Kag wanted to work steadily until retirement, and he would have less to worry about.

It was a matter of fact, and Jimmy was still young and didn't want to just leave the murder case aside.

After receiving the equipment, Jimmy drove the police car directly to the crime scene. He parked the police car in front of the house, crossed the blockade and entered the house, putting on gloves as he walked. This time he reopened his mind and re-examined every corner of the house.

Had a round of inspections.

The body has been taken away, and other places are the same as yesterday. If no one came into the house last night, theoretically everything should be untouched.

Jimmy checked every corner and cabinet box from the kitchen, storage room to the living room. According to the images fed back by his heart, there were no problems, kitchen utensils, tools, food, clothes, etc. Then he discovered an abnormal situation in the living room.

There seems to be a small space behind the TV cabinet, but it looks like it should be empty. There should be a mezzanine in the wall behind the TV cabinet in the living room.

Jimmy walked to the TV cabinet and looked carefully. He found no traces of movement on the ground. Whether it was left or right or front and back, as long as it moved, there must be traces of dragging and moving. This meant that the entrance to the mezzanine was not here at the TV cabinet. He looked back.

In theory, this wall should be the load-bearing wall of the house. Jimmy knocked on it and found that it should be a brick wall. Behind it is a guest bedroom. Yesterday, I just opened the door and took a look. No one lived in it and it was not messy, so I just opened it.

Skip it.

I went into the guest bedroom and looked at the corresponding wall. I knocked on it and found that the guest bedroom had a wooden wall. It should have separated a space on the brick wall, and then put up wooden boards and painted it the same color as the surrounding area to disguise it. Jimmy

I opened my mind and found a secret door along the space, behind the wardrobe in the guest bedroom.

Jimmy checked the ground under the clothes, and there were no signs of movement. The secret door probably did not require moving the closet. He opened the closet and moved the clothes, revealing a movable wooden board behind it with a shallow handle.

Pull away. Jimmy turns on the flashlight and puts his head in to check.

This compartment is 60-70 centimeters wide, extending from the ground to the second floor, with a depth of about 2 meters. It is very cleverly designed. From the living room, it looks like a solid wall, and this bedroom is probably rarely used, so there are not many people.

You can notice that there is a considerable space difference between the front and rear walls.

There are traces of dragging something on the floor of the secret room. It is very new and the area is not large. Judging from the size, it should be like a bucket bag or a long travel bag, because the dust on the ground is inconsistent with other places. There is no storage in other places.

There is still dust on the ground, and it seems that there is not much chance of using this space.

Jimmy closed the secret door, restored his clothes to their original state, left the bedroom, and continued to check the rooms upstairs. He found no other secret doors or anything unusual. The strangest thing was that no gun cabinets or gun boxes or shelves were found in the whole house.

, is this an anti-gun supporter? This is Arkansas, a conservative southern state.

Jimmy walked out of the house and began to conduct a new round of inquiries on the neighbors. Several people who had already asked yesterday repeated the questions and answers, which were basically the same as yesterday's statements. One neighbor who had not asked yesterday gave

An unexpected surprise for Jimmy.

"Kage, it's me, Jimmy. There are new clues in yesterday's case. Let's meet and tell you where you are."

Jimmy called Kag and then drove to meet Kag.

Although Caag is a police superintendent, he is also on patrol, but he is different from Jimmy. He is more Buddhist. When Jimmy found him, he was resting in the wild.

This is also the norm for many patrol officers. When they have nothing to do, they either drive on the road and patrol in boredom, or they find a safe place where no one is around to rest and wait for notifications from the dispatch center.

"Kage, found a person who seemed to have witnessed the suspect leaving, and he provided a clue. Yesterday he saw a man getting into a blue car of unknown model on their street.

Caucasian male, 180-190 cm tall, with a strong build, short hair, a green T-shirt, jeans, and carrying a black travel bag.

We can check the surrounding traffic cameras and we should be able to find this blue car."

Kag looked at Jimmy speechlessly. He had sorted out the clues and evidence yesterday just so that he could put the case aside and wait for others to deal with it so that he could relax. Why did this come back again?

"Jimmy, you go back to the police station first. I will contact the chief to apply for surveillance video. You will follow up on this case."

Jimmy looked at Kag helplessly. He had made up his mind to completely ruin it and was determined not to get into trouble. That's okay, he wanted to handle this case anyway, so he could just take over the whole thing and do it himself, but there was no one else.

Hold the thunder above in case it explodes...

Jimmy returned to the police station. The chief had already contacted the dispatch center. The video from the traffic camera required a lot of procedures to be obtained. Now he could only wait.

In the afternoon, Jimmy finally got a few boxes of traffic video tapes. They definitely couldn't be the original videos, but copies of the videos at several intersections designated by Jimmy. He turned on the video player at the police station and started playing the traffic videos before and after the crime. Because they were from several surrounding intersections.

, so there are more video tapes and the time is longer.

After several hours of repeated playback and comparison, Jimmy was almost blind. Because he needed to pause and rewind at any time when playing, and the size of TVs nowadays are relatively small, in order to see clearly, Jimmy sat directly in front of the TV.

, pause at any time.

After repeated comparisons and records, Jimmy found a total of three blue cars that matched the description, all with Arkansas license plates. After carefully checking the license plate numbers, he called the dispatch center and asked for information on these three cars.

Something unexpected happened. Two cars were normal, while the third one had a fake license plate.

Jimmy directly focused on the car with the fake license plate. Judging from the recorded traffic intersection and the direction of the vehicle, the direction should be west. As for the destination, it was not clear yet. For subsequent videos, he would need to contact the dispatch center again to apply for access.

As for the two normal vehicles, they were directly PASSed. If the fake license plates are not resolved, contact them again.

Jimmy asked the dispatch center to check the last whereabouts of the car with the fake license plate. This would take time, and there would definitely be no chance today. Jimmy arranged things and got off work. Although there was no patrol today, he was really tired.

Jimmy came home, ate something casually, then went to bed. He slept until he woke up naturally the next day, and the alarm didn't go off yet.
