Chapter 404: Timber Factory, Find the Missing Person
The living room of Nat Norris's home.
Now that the FBI has come to the door, it means that Peter Olson's matter has been focused on them. Nat Norris has a bad temper but is not a fool and does not want to go against the FBI.
Hearing Chenelle’s question, Nat Norris tilted his head, thought for a while, and said:
“The other party was driving too fast and I couldn’t see the license plate number clearly.
However, the van was off-white, with a brand name that seemed to be Ford. It had a Confederate flag and several cartoon character stickers on it, and there were four or five people inside. "
“Confederate flag? Cartoon character sticker?”
Roan frowned slightly when he heard this. Chenier pressed the dial button and told Mona the information.
Not long after, Mona’s reply came from the other end of the phone:
“I was monitoring the corner four streets away from the bar and found the car.”
“Good.”
Luo An took Cheniel’s cell phone and asked:
“Who is the owner of the car? Can you see what the driver looks like?”
“Judging from the license plate number…”
Mona on the other end of the phone answered while typing on the keyboard:
“The owner of this van is the owner of a store in northern Los Angeles, but according to bank accounts, his family recently left the Commonwealth by plane and sent their daughter to university in the United Kingdom.
As for the driver, the car entered the surveillance camera from a diagonal angle, and I couldn’t see the driver. "
“OK, it means this car is stolen.”
Luo An’s expression remained unchanged and he continued to ask:
“So, besides these two bad news, do you have any good news for me?”
"certainly."
Mona on the other end of the phone smiled and said:
“After I entered the car’s information into the LAPD database, I discovered that this car was captured in a patrol officer’s dash cam last night.
I checked the surveillance camera based on where the patrol officer was at that time and found that the van finally entered a lumber factory in northern Los Angeles and never came out. "
“Well done!”
Luo An praised Mona loudly, threw the phone back to Chenelle, and said:
“Contact the SWAT team and we’ll go to the lumber factory to arrest people.”
"no problem."
Chenelle started to contact SWAT, and Luo An took her to the SUV parked outside the community. While walking, Luo An took out his mobile phone and called Lacey:
“It’s me, Luo An, how are you doing over there?”
“No clues were found related to the disappearance of Pitdo Olson, but there is a little problem.”
On the other end of the phone, Lacey said that Winslow was negotiating with people at the naval base. She was now in Pitdo Olson's office and whispered:
“I found a notebook at the bottom of the files on Pitdo Olsen’s desk.
There were not many English letters written in the notebook, but there were a lot of neatly arranged numbers. I checked carefully and found that these numbers were not Morse code or anything else, but accumulated accounts of some funds. "
Luo An frowned slightly when he heard this:
“You mean that Pitdo Olson had a financial chain that we couldn’t find during his lifetime?”
“It’s very likely.”
Remembering that Nat Norris said earlier that the group of people who kidnapped Pitdo Olsen were unusual, Luo An was silent for a few seconds and said:
“Be careful during the next investigation, and you and Winslow must not act separately.
If you feel something is wrong, stop the investigation immediately and return to the original route. If it doesn't work, remember to call for support immediately. "
"clear."
Lacie understood the subtext of Luo An's words and nodded solemnly in agreement.
Luo An hung up the phone and lowered his head in thought. Chenille raised her phone and said that the SWAT team had set off to north Los Angeles. Luo An opened the door and got into the driver's seat of the SUV. He waited for Cheniere to fasten her seat belt and started immediately. The SUV darted into the road. Half an hour later, a lumber factory in northern Los Angeles.
The SWAT personnel carrier and the SUV of the Special Investigation Team arrived at the designated location. Luo An and Cheniel arranged their weapons, turned on the communicator, and said:
“The goal of this operation is to find Pitdo Olson, and the photos have been distributed to everyone.
If the enemy violently counterattacks with a gun, he is allowed to be killed. Repeat, if the enemy violently counterattacks with a gun, he is allowed to be killed! "
"clear!"
A group of SWAT team members agreed with a bang. Luo An checked the time with everyone. After the time reached the designated position, he loudly said:
"start to act!"
Boom—
As soon as the words fell, a group of SWAT team members who were ready rushed out of the personnel carrier. After getting off the vehicle, they immediately divided into two teams and rushed into the factory from the front and rear doors of the lumber factory.
Heavily armed Luo An and Chenille followed the SWAT team closely and slowly entered through the front door of the lumber factory.
Before entering the factory, Luo An and Chenier found the Ford van in the open space outside the factory. The two looked at each other without saying a word. They planned to call the people from the trace inspection department to inspect it. Maybe they could find it there. I found some clues in the car.
This lumber factory is large, but it seems to have been shut down for a long time. The SWAT team quickly searched forward and found no one.
Luo An knew that Chenier was very skilled, so he moved very quickly after entering the factory this time, and he and the SWAT team quickly moved forward to inspect every room.
“Find the target person!”
Suddenly, the communicator on Luo An’s chest heard the cry of a SWAT team member:
“At location D1, the target person was found!”
The current location of Luo An and Chenier was not far from the D1 position. When Chenier heard the voice in the contact, she immediately ran over with her gun raised, and then saw Petedo who was tied to a chair. - Olson.
The chair is a household wooden chair that can be seen everywhere in the lumber factory, and the rope used to tie people up is also the hemp rope that can be found everywhere in the lumber factory. Pitto Olsen on the chair has his head lowered and has lost his breath.
At the same time, there were bruises and scars everywhere on Pitdo Olsen's face, chest, arms, and other places. There were also two bone-deep cuts on his left and right thighs, and there was a large pool of blood on the ground under the chair. Dark red blood.
“Fu-k!”
Seeing the miserable state of Peter Olson who was obviously tortured to death, Chenelle cursed in a low voice with an ugly face.
The SWAT team members have completed their operation and have not found any enemies in the factory. Upon hearing this, Cheniel subconsciously turned her head and looked to her side, preparing to ask Luo An what to do next.
As a result, Chenelle turned her head and found that Luo An was not beside her at all, but squatting on the ground not far away, carefully picking up something.
Chenelle quickly walked over to Luo An and took a closer look, only to realize that the thing Luo An was playing with was a toothpick.
“This is most likely left behind by the group that kidnapped Pitdo Olsen.”
Luo An took out the white evidence bag, put the toothpick in it, and explained with a smile:
“This factory has been shut down for a long time, but this toothpick is obviously new. If we turn it over to the Trace Inspection Department, we may be able to get some useful clues.”
Chenelle nodded and walked with Roan to the chair where Pitdo Olson was tied. She pointed to the wounds on Pitdo Olson's legs and said:
“The wound looked very much like a military dagger.”
“Either an image, or a military dagger.”
Looking at the wound, Roan confirmed Chenier's guess, then squatted on the ground, looked up at Pitdo Olsen's drooping head, and frowned:
“Obviously, these kidnappers are a group of guys with military backgrounds, and they kidnapped Pitdo Olsen to get a message out of him.
Now it seems that they have a high probability of success. "
