Chapter 254 Patient Zero and the Real Murderer
Because he had been busy all day and it was time to get off work, Roan and Lacey walked into St. John's Hospital in Queens together the next morning.
In a certain ward, the two managed to see a middle-aged Caucasian man who was lying on a hospital bed covered with a quilt, with a tube inserted in front of his nose. Although he looked a little decadent, his appearance was quite in line with Western aesthetics.
Matthew Ethan was flirting with a female nurse when Roann and Lacy came in.
Take out the golden badge of the FBI and drive the female nurse out of the room, who was blinded by the male sex. Lacey's face is full of disdain:
"Good morning, Matthew Ethan, you are really popular with women."
"Is it my fault that Zhang Cheng looks like a heartthrob?"
Matthew Ethan chuckled indifferently, looked carefully at Lacey and Roan for a few seconds, and then his eyes lit up.
Roan frowned slightly. According to the data, Matthew Ethan does not distinguish between men and women. He only distinguishes whether the other party is beautiful or ugly.
Too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy, Roan took out a pair of handcuffs from behind, and directly handcuffed Matthew Ethan's right hand to the hospital bed:
"Congratulations, Matthew Ethan, you've been arrested.
The charge is that you knew that you had AIDS, but you did not tell your partner about it, and you had incomplete **** with her/them. "
"What?"
Seeing his hands being handcuffed by Roan, Matthew Ethan, who was lying on the hospital bed, was surprised, and then shouted loudly:
"Why do you say I know I have AIDS? I don't know about it! I'm innocent! I'm a victim!"
"Don't tell such lies that can be broken at once. We have found your credit card records a long time ago, which shows that you went to the hospital for an AIDS test at that time."
Lacey, who was standing next to her, laughed when she heard the words. Roan also pulled out Matthew Ethan's medical records from the pocket in front of Matthew Ethan's bed, and said softly:
"In addition, your medical records show that you were hospitalized this time because of Pneumocystis infection, which is a common pneumonia in AIDS patients.
How about it, you feel very uncomfortable right now. "
"…Fu-k, is your FBI so free now?"
After listening to Roan's words, Matthew Ethan looked very irritable:
"I don't care. Anyway, you can't tell more people about this. Federal law stipulates that this is my right to privacy."
"It depends on your performance. According to federal law, federal citizens are obliged to answer questions from federal agents."
Roan frowned slightly, and turned to look at Lacey. Seeing this, Lacey immediately took out a small notebook from behind and asked:
"Matthew Ethan, have you encountered any special circumstances in the past two days?"
"I'm a person who has fun outside every night, and I've been lying in the hospital for the past two days. Is this considered a special situation?"
Matthew Ethan yelled at Lacey very unhappy, then turned to look at Roan:
"What the **** are you doing?"
Roan did not explain the matter of Dr. Flavia Fran with Matthew Ethan, but simply stated:
"According to the exact information we got, no one was infected with AIDS because you spread the seeds everywhere.
One of the guys who is infected with AIDS has come to you with a knife for revenge. "
"Sonof than eat!"
Matthew Ethan's face changed suddenly. Although he would die from AIDS, at least he could live for a while longer. He refused to be directly hacked to death with a knife.
Brain turned quickly, Matthew Ethan seriously recalled the situation of the past two days, suddenly found something, raised his head and said eagerly:
"Last night, I left the ward to go out for a few minutes, and then returned to this ward with two nurses.
When the three of us walked to the door of the ward, we found a man standing in front of my hospital bed looking at my medical records. We asked who he was, and the guy said he was in the wrong room, and before we could talk, he walked away. "
We asked who he was, and the guy said he was in the wrong room, and before we could talk, he walked away. "
Speaking of this, Matthew Ethan was afraid for a while, because now he carefully recalled the scene at that time, only to find that the man seemed to have something in his pocket, which looked like a dagger in shape.
Not only that, but the way that person looked at him when he was talking was not quite right.
and Roan exchanged glances, Lacey immediately raised the notebook in her hand:
"Tell me what that guy looks like."
"Caucasian, skinny, young looking, twenties..."
Matthew Ethan hurriedly described the person's appearance, and finally said eagerly:
"Mr. Detective! Ms. Detective! You must send someone to protect me later! I feel that the hospital is not very safe!"
Matthew Ethan described the image of that person, which is almost the same as the appearance of the cyclist in yesterday's surveillance.
"Relax, Matthew Ethan, if you think the hospital is not safe, then we can change you to a safer place, such as a prison, it must be safe there!"
and Lacey looked at each other, Roan chuckled, he was too lazy to deal with such a selfish and ungrateful guy, ignored the other party's wailing, got up and left the ward directly.
But that being said, after Roan and Lacey left, the two SWAT team members who notified in advance still sat at the door of this ward.
St. John's Hospital has relatively complete surveillance facilities, and many surveillance cameras are installed in the corridors.
Take out the FBI golden badge to show his identity, Roan asked the person in charge of the monitoring room of the hospital to transfer to the monitoring last night, and soon found the white youth.
The other party was wearing a hat, and kept lowering the brim of the hat all the way, but when going downstairs at the corner of the stairs, in order to avoid the two oncoming patients, the surveillance camera snapped at the other party's face.
"Good."
After briefly expressing his gratitude to the person in charge of monitoring, Luo An took the monitoring records back to the No. 5 investigation team and asked:
"How about it, can you find this guy through the face recognition system?"
William and other technical agents took a screenshot of the video recording, and after tapping their fingers on the keyboard for a while, their faces were full of embarrassment:
"Sorry, this guy can't be found in the face recognition system."
Luo An’s expression remained unchanged. In the records of the federal 05’s face recognition system, all the guys who made mistakes were recorded. The white man in the picture is very young, and it is possible that he has no criminal record.
Turning his head to look at Mona, Roan continued to ask:
"What about the AIDS-infected people in the folder? Is there anyone with the same face as this guy?"
"nor."
There was a crackling sound, Mona looked at the information in the computer and frowned slightly:
"Not only are there no people infected with AIDS in these two documents, but the white youth is also absent among those people infected with AIDS that we checked later."
"What?"
Ryder was puzzled when he heard the words:
"Could it be that the direction of our investigation is wrong? For example, this guy didn't kill Flavia because of AIDS."
Lacey scratched her head:
"But he still went to Matthew Ethan, how to explain that?"
Roan picked up the folder containing the personal information of the AIDS patient, sat on the chair and read it carefully. After a long silence, he suddenly threw it on the table and said loudly:
"Everyone, start now and investigate the family members and friends of these AIDS patients!
This white youth killed Dr. Flavia, and went to the hospital to find and prepare to kill Matthew Ethan, probably not for himself! "
