Chapter 9

Luke's hands were fast, and he put a thick layer of peanut butter on his toast.

I'm sure I'll be very busy today. I don't have enough breakfast. I'm afraid he'll be hungry at noon.

But he used to say, "you mean, as long as I'm past today, I can be late?"

The toast in Robert's mouth almost didn't come out. He coughed several times. He just managed to pour a mouthful of milk, and then he began to relax.

He seldom beats Luke in a fight because his mind is not as clear as someone else's.

This is the only way for them to talk. They have a lot to do today.

After Robert finished eating toast, he got up to urge after drinking milk. Luke took a few mouthfuls of milk and went out with half of the toast.

Catherine hurried out over there. "Won't you come back for lunch?"

Robert: No, just buy some outside

Luke smiled and quickly took a large brown paper bag from Catherine's hand, then gave her a mouthful with crumbs on her forehead: "Oh, that's so nice. Thank you for the lunch you prepared for me. "

Robert's face turned black.

It turned out that Catherine had just done a little more. If she wanted them to take it with her, she could eat it when she was hungry.

Looking at the two men, one with a black face, the other got on the car with a smile on her face.

It's a lot of peace to go to work together.

They are the people she cares about the most. Taking care of each other can reduce the danger.

Of course, it may be Robert who takes care of Luke now, but judging from Luke's performance from small to large, he will soon be able to take care of each other with Robert.

Catherine never doubted that.

The police car sped towards Knox.

There's no forensics in town, so an autopsy can only be sent to the forensic department in Knox.

But Knox's assurance department is just like that. If it can't be solved, it depends on whether the town sends it to a more professional assurance department, such as Houston.

The United States is different from China.

Their administrative districts are divided into counties and cities from large to small, followed by smaller towns and villages.

But the law enforcement system is upside down.

The county magistrate is in charge of the village police station and the city police station. County Sheriff doesn't care, it's the jurisdiction of state police.

In addition, the police station of shakeford town is not under the management of the municipal police station, let alone the county police station, but directly responsible for the townspeople. The salaries of the police officers in the town are also allocated by the administrative system of the town.

As a result, there are many cases of robbery between police stations.

After all, police stations all over the country have no direct superior subordinate relationship. Even if the FBI goes to handle cases all over the country, they are often picked up by the local police stations and feel that they are here to intervene in matters within their authority.

The town police station is only responsible for the town residents. Once any case happens, it's better to solve it by yourself.

Unless it can't be solved and the impact is bad, the general local police department will not give the case handling power to other departments, whether this department is the FBI or other police departments.

Robert rushed to Knox for an autopsy in such a hurry that he wanted to determine the nature of the case as soon as possible.

If the girl drowns herself, it has little to do with the police.

If it is man-made, he must solve the case as soon as possible.

The town hasn't had a homicide in many years, especially the daughter of the town's residents, which can't be relaxed.

The faster the case is solved, the better it will show that the police officers in the small town police station are not salary thieves.

All the way, the police car arrived at Knox police station in less than an hour.

However, the assurance department is not in the police station, but in a four story building next door.

As for whether this is because Knox's police don't want a morgue in the basement, it's not clear.

After getting out of the car, Robert did not go in at once, but looked at Luke: "do you know what you need to pay attention to just when you are a policeman?"

Luke pondered for a moment and replied, "listen more, watch less, talk less and move less?"

Robert: " Damn it, where did you hear that? Well, that's very special. It's very simple. It's up to you. You can't say that to anyone else. I'm going to take it to my men. "

Luke: Can I say that this is the most commonly used new golden sentence in official texts that I have read in the last life?

With his name and position in the newspaper, Robert took Luke and found room 3 under the guidance of the reception aunt.

The so-called room three, that is, the third autopsy room.

Robert had no scruples, just knocked on the door a few times and pushed in.

Inside, a middle-aged man in his forties saw Robert and just nodded, "here you are, wait a moment, let me finish this cup of freshly ground coffee."

Robert:_ -!

Luke: (⊙_ Is there something wrong with it? Luke was deeply doubted that the place he came to was a coffee shop?Robert's face was not very good-looking, but he did not attack. Instead, he lowered his voice: "this is his virtue. Before starting work in the morning, he has to make a cup of freshly ground coffee by himself. If he doesn't drink it, he won't be able to lift his spirits all day. "

Luke lowered his voice. "Are you sure he's talking about coffee?"

Robert's cheek twitched: "he never touched those things, including weeds. I think coffee for him feels like a weed. He's addicted to it. "

Luke was silent.

But it's not over.

While waiting for the freshly ground coffee to be ready, the middle-aged man turned on the stereo on his desk. The sound was not very loud, but it was very clear in the quiet autopsy room.

It's a violin song. Luke can't tell which one. He's not interested in it.

However, the music is surprisingly good.

Thirty minutes later, the middle-aged man took out a small cup of coffee and drank it without sharing with Robert.

Robert is no longer impatient. He knows the temper of this man in front of him. He is not impatient to kill.

Who let others have the ability! Well, in fact, this guy is the only official forensic in Knox city.

The middle-aged man put away all his coffee drinkers, and then looked at Luke for a moment: "new man?"

Robert: "my kid, Luke. He is also a policeman. He goes to work on the first day today. Mars, can you start quickly? "

The middle-aged man said: "ha ha, I'll be here the first day of work. Are you sure it's his own?"

Luke smiles and doesn't speak. He implements the policy of speaking less. Isn't there Robert beside him.

Sure enough, Robert turned black. "Mars, don't make fun of my family."

The middle-aged man named Mars was shocked and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm used to joking with those bitches in the Bureau. You know, Hank Well, forget about it. "
