Chapter 736: Found the trace and silenced him?
Twelve noon, a spacious street in the middle of Harrisburg.
The SUV was slowly parked by Luo An to the side of the road. Lacey was stunned when she heard his words, her face full of doubts and confusion:
“Have you guessed where Anthony Solin is? How did you guess it? Where is he?”
“Give me the map.”
Roan turned sideways and pulled out a map of the city of Harrisburg from the drawer in front of the passenger seat.
When arriving in a new city, it has become a habit of most agents of the special investigation team to first purchase a map of the city.
The reason why I say most of them is because Mona doesn’t like to do this. She prefers to view the electronic version of the map on the computer.
Seeing the map in Luo An's hand, and seeing Luo An draw a few dots on the map, Lacey suddenly realized:
“Anthony Solin, this guy, has a certain order of how he kills people!”
On the map, from the hospital where the crime occurred, to the residence of "Mr. Bodybuilder" Elliott, to the missing home of the company manager, to the motel where Adam Davis, the person who secretly took the photos, died together with the two women.
The four locations are not a standard straight line, but the whole presents several line segments that can be connected from south to north.
Mona responded decisively and began to lead Michelle to operate the computer. Roan hung up the phone and restarted the car, and went to the manager's residence with Lacey again.
Lacie sighed, took out her mobile phone and started calling the Trace Inspection Department. Luo An walked out of the study and began to search the details of the villa to see if there was any surveillance equipment.
"clear!"
Luo An put away his pistol, briefly checked the condition of the body, and said:
“Like the deceased “Mr. Bodybuilder” found by Winslow and the others, the manager also died of a broken neck bone, killed by a single blow.”
“That’s right.”
"Wow."
Five minutes later, the two successfully arrived at the home of the manager responsible for the pharmaceutical transportation business in the pharmaceutical company.
“These four locations are not close together. It is impossible for Anthony Solin to move forward by running. There is a high probability that he will choose to drive.
Luo An didn’t waste any time. He directly took a chair and stood on it, taking the classical clock off the wall.
“It seems we guessed right, it’s another guy whose mouth was silenced by Anthony Thorin.”
“It’s not cyanide poisoning.”
Lacie quickly hung up the phone and walked out of the room. She saw Luo An standing in the middle of the living room, staring at the classical clock on the wall. She raised her eyebrows and asked:
Physically remove the box outside the clock, and a small camera appears in front of the two of them.
Mona, you and Michelle should carefully investigate the surveillance videos in the areas around the four locations above, especially the surveillance on each street, and see if you can find the suspicious car. "
Luo An nodded solemnly. He just recalled the map of Harrisburg in his mind and discovered the situation of the line segments.
Picked up the camera and observed carefully, Lacey’s face was full of surprise:
“Is there something wrong with the clock?”
After shouting for several times but no one answered, Luo An kicked open the door of the villa and led Lacey into the villa. Soon, he found a male body in the study room on the second floor of the villa. Not surprisingly, it was the target manager.
“The Trace Inspection Section will be here soon.”
“Tear it down and take a look.”
Without hesitation, Luo An immediately took out his cell phone and called Mona, briefly described the situation he discovered, and then said:
“Luo An, how did you find out?”
“Intuition.”
Luo An smiled. As soon as he entered the villa, he discovered that the classical clock on the wall of the living room did not match the overall decoration style of the living room.
Luo An also guessed at first that this classical clock might have been hung here because it was very valuable.
But after observing carefully for a moment, Luo An found a different kind of reflection in the corner of the clock, so he removed it to take a closer look, and the final result did not disappoint him.
“Awesome!”
Lacie lightly hit Luo An's arm with admiration, and Luo An asked her to go upstairs to get the manager's laptop, and then inserted the camera's memory card into it.
After a few simple taps on the keyboard, a somewhat dim but clear surveillance video appeared in front of the two of them.
The surveillance video was very long, so Luo An skipped the useless parts. Finally, around 12 noon yesterday, he discovered a piece of surveillance footage that was not quite right. In this scene, the manager is standing in the living room making a phone call, and then monitoring the door of the villa in the corner of the screen, a garbage truck slowly stops.
Not long after the garbage truck parked, the manager who was on the phone seemed to notice something. He quickly hung up the phone and took out a pistol from under the sofa in the living room, and slowly walked up the stairs to the second floor.
In the surveillance footage behind, there was no gunshot, and the manager never appeared again. Less than two minutes after the manager went upstairs with a gun, the garbage truck slowly left the door of the villa.
"rubbish truck?!"
Lacie exclaimed, already aware of a certain possibility, Luo An took out his mobile phone again and called Mona:
“How is the investigation going on over there?”
"working hard now."
The crackling keyboard sounds continued, and Mona spoke quickly:
“There are too many street surveillance videos near the four crime locations, and the traffic volume is heavy. Michelle and I need a little time.”
“I found some clues here.”
Roan briefly described the contents of the surveillance video he found. Mona and Michelle were also a little surprised after hearing this:
"rubbish truck?"
“It’s a good means of transportation for mercenaries and killers, isn’t it?”
Luo An grinned and said:
“The truck bed behind it makes it easy to load things, and the vehicle itself does not easily attract the attention of others. Many people also dislike the smell of garbage and will not take the initiative to approach the garbage truck.”
“That’s right.”
Lacey nodded in agreement. Before she could continue speaking, Mona’s exclamation sounded on her phone:
“Luo An, you are right! Not only did a garbage truck appear near the residence when the manager died!
There were garbage trucks near the hospital, Elliott's residence, and the motel around the time of the incident! "
Lacie quickly asked:
“Where is the garbage truck now?”
“It eventually disappeared southwest of Harrisburg.”
Mona quickly replied:
“Roan, I found traces of this guy Anthony Thorin!
Shortly after the garbage truck disappeared, a Buick sedan appeared and left the area.
Now this Buick car is moving quickly towards Philadelphia! "
“It’s Philadelphia again.”
Lacie raised her eyebrows:
“Why do killers like to go to Philadelphia?”
“Because the transportation there is convenient, it is very suitable for running.”
Luo An chuckled and said to the phone:
“Mona, contact the Philadelphia law enforcement department and keep an eye on Anthony Thorin’s movements. We will set off there immediately.”
“OK.”
Mona agreed and hung up the phone, and Luo An immediately called Winslow and the others to explain the situation and asked them to return immediately to join him and others.
Winslow and Chenelle immediately accepted the order and also said:
“Team leader, we just discovered something while investigating the surveillance near Mr. Bodybuilder’s residence.”
"What?"
Chenelle's tone was a little strange, she said:
“Just now, Luo An, you explained the situation of the garbage truck, and we also found it on the nearby surveillance camera.
But shortly after the garbage truck left, another taxi followed it. "
"taxi?!"
Lacey was very surprised and turned to look at Luo An, who suddenly smiled:
“If I’m not mistaken, there are others who are ready to silence me.”
