Chapter 92
Half an hour later, the group left the motel.
Marcus got along well with the little boy and made a fist bumping gesture, “Hey man, remember to call me if you need anything.”
The little boy reached out and bumped his fist and went back to the motel.
Luke asked “Got it?”
Marcus pulled a clear ziplock bag from his pants pocket containing a few hairs, “I shouldn’t have lied to him, he’s a good little guy.”
“You’re helping him find his dad, he’ll understand.”
“I hope so.”
David hung up his cell phone and walked over, “I checked in with the captain. She’s decided not to subpoena the deceased’s brother, Maguire Hari, for today?”
“WHY?”
“The evidence isn’t strong enough yet, and the conflict between Maguire Hari and Badman Pool doesn’t prove that Maguire Hari had anything to do with his sister’s death.
Besides, the captain doesn’t think Maguire Hari would do the killing himself if he wanted to.
Have Matthew look into Marquel Hare’s money situation, it might lead to new leads.”
Luke nodded, “A very solid approach.”
Luke’s Harley was still sitting at Daisy’s house.
After work, Luke contacted Daisy, the other party had to work overtime tonight and might be busy until after nine.
Estimated to return home are ten o’clock, wash and clean up is estimated to be almost eleven o’clock, tired all day, Luke is always bad to chase each other to do sports.
Simply ride a Harley back to his home.
Halfway, in a Mexican restaurant to eat dinner.
Back to Ruidu community is already eight o’clock in the evening, the sky is a little dark.
A white shadow sprang out in front of him.
Luke emergency brakes, but did not steer, let the speed not let the road.
It was only when he was about to collide that he saw that it was a white long-haired dog.
The motorcycle grazed the dog’s hair and drove past, but fortunately there was no traffic accident.
Luke stopped the motorcycle and breathed a sigh of relief.
“Woof woof ……” The dog was also startled and kept barking at Luke.
Luke also knew some dogs, but still in really couldn’t name the breed of this white shaggy dog, slightly smaller in size than the Great White Bear and Samoyed, but barking more aggressively.
The long-haired dog bared its teeth and barked more and more aggressively, spitting on the ground.
Luke was also a bit angry, fortunately, he was not riding fast, otherwise he really could not brake, perhaps he had to fall hard.
“Get lost, if you scream again I’ll stew you.” If it was not for the lack of a handful of guys, I had to beat this dog up.
Next to an Asian woman of about forty years old ran over and questioned, “You people will not ride ah, how to press into my dog.”
Luke froze for a moment, thinking, “Can you people talk? “Auntie, I’m driving normally, it’s your dog that crashed into my car, you should be the one to apologize.”
“Who is your aunt? Who am I to give you an apology, obviously you pressed my dog, have not found you to ask for medical expenses, want to be shameless?”
“Your dog has nothing to run to the highway, you still have reason?”
“Is this highway your home? Why can you walk on it and my dog can’t? Who’s being unreasonable?”
“I don’t care to argue with you, keep your dog on a leash. If it interferes with my driving or barks at me again, I’ll beat it once.”
“What right do you have to hit my dog, you dare to move it a little try, you try?” The dog owner inserted his waist, with an expression that if you dare to move it, it’s not over with you.
Luke directly pulled out his pistol, “This dog threatens my personal safety, I’ll count to three, if you dare to bare your teeth to me again, one shot will kill it.”
“Three.”
“Ka!” Luke directly pistol loaded.
“Don’t, don’t, don’t shoot, what’s wrong with you, what’s wrong with a joke?” The dog owner was terrified, holding the dog in his arms and pinching the dog’s mouth, afraid that Luke would really shoot.
“Stinks.” Luke put away his gun and directly mounted his Harley and left.
Waiting for Luke to walk away, the dog owner only stood up: “You stinking shameless, you are a man, even the dog is bullied.
I’m not afraid of you.
Just because you have a gun, what do you think you are?”
The following day at noon.
Robbery and Murder Division office.
Susan walked into the office and cleared her throat, “Everyone, I have an announcement to make.”
Everyone looked up and over.
Susan continued, “The Technical Division compared the DNA of the black man’s severed finger to that of Bardman Pool’s son, and the genetic similarity between the two is 99.95%, supporting the existence of a parent-child relationship between the two.
The owner of that severed finger should be Badman Poole.”
The lieutenant said, “It’s not good news, but we’ve identified the second body.”
Marcus sighed softly, “That boy is going to be devastated, I don’t even know how to tell him.”
The lieutenant suggested, “Then let’s not talk about it, it’ll be easier to accept the result when he’s mentally prepared to announce it after a while. At least it won’t be so painful anymore.”
Luke rubbed his chin and analyzed, “Councilwoman Riley Hare was murdered, probably because of a vendetta.
Now that Bardman Quarrel has been killed as well, it’s likely that the same person killed them. And because of what?
Did the two people have a common enemy, or did they harm someone else’s common interests.”
The lieutenant said, “Could it be that someone held Bardman-Poel’s family hostage and got him to assist in the murder of Riley Hari. And then took out Bardman-Poel afterward so that no one would know who the real killer was?”
Luke analyzes the situation smoothly, “That’s not a problem with this idea of a crime.
But if I were the murderer, I would have hidden the body after killing Badman-Poel instead of planting his finger in the victim’s mouth.
And, what about the other two fingers? And what were their identities? It’s not like three people would be killed just to kill Riley Hare.
It’s a complete give and take.”
The crowd was silent for a few moments before Matthew rose from his seat, “Hey, I got a new lead.”
Susan gestured, “Tell me about it.”
“I checked the bank account of the deceased’s brother, Marquel Hare, and on the morning of March 30th, the morning the deceased was killed, three hundred thousand dollars was withdrawn from Marquel Hare’s bank account.” Matthew didn’t finish before Black interrupted.
“Wow wow, this kid has finally revealed himself, it can’t be a murder buyer.”
“I haven’t finished.” Matthew was a bit disgruntled, his voice overpowered Blackie, “Just now, another four hundred thousand dollars was withdrawn from Maguire Hari’s account.”
Blackie lamented, “Where did these assholes get so much money, these two sums add up to seven hundred thousand dollars, able to top my salary for ten years.”
Luke pondered for a moment, “If Maguire Hari is really the murderer and hired someone to kill his sister or Bardman Pool, then the money on March 30th was most likely an advance, and obtaining this money today is most likely the final payment.
That means that he is now likely to deal with the murderer again.”
Susan made a snap decision and instructed, “Matthew, lock down Maguire Hari’s location.
Everyone else get ready to move.”
“Yes, captain.”
