Luke and Selina could only comfort John McClane and ask him to meet up for a drink when he was free. They then got up and drove to the crime scene last night.
When they left the parking lot, Selina couldn't help but sigh. "How did he manage to get his wife back then?"
Luke said, "It's easy to get married, but you have to continue married life. I can only say that they do love each other, but they can't get along. "
Selina nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything else. She turned to read the case file in her hand.
A moment later, she exclaimed in surprise, "Who did this? It's so brutal. "
Luke said, "John Wick is still hiding in the Continental Hotel. It can't be him. Let's go to the scene and take a look."
They had been keeping an eye on the Continental Hotel for the past two days. John was recuperating and hadn't come out at all.
That was why they were immediately sure that the new case wasn't John Wick's handiwork.
Selina said, "The style isn't right either. The attacker fired from outside the window and used extremely heavy firepower to cover the area, turning more than a dozen Irish gang members into sieves. This is also very different from John Wick's method. This method is more like a mercenary's habit. "
Luke looked at the picture on the screen and nodded. "It's a typical mercenary style. Simple, crude, and direct. What's more, he didn't even clean up the bodies, which is why the impact is so bad. "
It would be strange if NYPD wasn't nervous about such a massacre.
When they arrived at the crime scene in Clinton, Luke got out of the car and said, "These guys are very smart. They hid at the pier. It's very likely that they only snuck back on a boat in the last few days. No wonder I haven't seen them recently."
Selina shook her head and sighed. "Why? Why bother?"
This group of Irish gangsters was the group that they had taught a lesson to in the past.
Unfortunately, while they had escaped V, who had killed them out of love, they hadn't been able to escape the battlefield butcher's hail of bullets. These unlucky bastards had even collapsed in pools of blood wrapped in bandages.
Wouldn't it have been better to hide in New Jersey to heal? They had to have snuck back. They must have been up to something, and now they were dead! Selina cursed inwardly at these unlucky bastards.
Flashing their badges at the police officers, they walked into the scene.
Looking at the mess inside and the scene of debris everywhere, the two of them were a little shocked.
While dodging the debris and blood under her feet, Selina said, "How many bullets were fired?"
There was only a preliminary report in the file, and the exact number of bullets had not been calculated.
At first, she thought that the forensic scientists were slacking off, but now she knew that the workload was too large.
The number of bullet holes in Luke's sunglasses kept increasing, before slowing down a moment later.
He looked at the number and smirked. "More than three hundred."
Selina asked, "Each of the gangsters had multiple bullet holes, so the attacker fired more than five hundred bullets in one go? Does he think this is the battlefield in the Middle East?! "
Luke said, "The attacker is using 5.56mm bullets. With such firepower, he really thinks this is a war."
At this point, he couldn't help but shake his head.
This was Manhattan, New York, the center of the world. If they did this, something big would happen.
Selina asked, "So, we ran into a super killer, and now we're looking for a violent mercenary?"
The AI program had already reconstructed part of the scene, and it showed that there was probably only one attacker, which was why she said that.
Luke walked out of the warehouse and walked to where the attacker had attacked. "After all, anything can happen in New York and Manhattan."
As he said that, he couldn't help but recall some scenes.
Manhattan was a "Feng Shui treasure land" that was favored by the "Universe's Free Demolition Office".
Guns had only been used in the last few years; it would be really lively when energy cannons and alien warships joined the demolition department in the future.
After patrolling the scene, Luke didn't find much.
The attacker had attacked outside the warehouse, and this place was by the river. The wind had already blown away all the smell.
He wasn't in a hurry.
There were many cases that couldn't be rushed. What was most needed was time and meticulous investigation.
Luke and Selina returned to HQ and looked for Elsa.
Hearing why they were there, Elsa only asked them to wait for a moment. She made a call, and less than half an hour later, she gestured for them to look at her computer.
Entering the database, she quickly opened a few numbered files. "Based on the characteristics you provided, I had Lisa look into similar cases in the last two years, and found these cases from the second half of last year. Write down the serial numbers in the files. You can check them yourself when you get back. "
Luke said with a smile, "Since you're already here, why don't you analyze it for us, boss?"
Ayesha rolled her eyes at him, but she knew that he wanted to keep in touch with them so that they wouldn't drift apart in the future. "Alright, since you brought me snacks."
She briefly explained the common points of the cases, before she said, "These cases happened at different times, and they weren't just committed in New York City. That's probably why they weren't combined. But you're right; they were probably done by the same group of people. "
Luke said, "It might just be one person."
Elsa was stunned. "One person?"
She couldn't help but look at the files on the computer screen. The death toll was more than twenty. How could one person have done it … Well, wasn't there a guy in front of her who could take on dozens of people on his own?
She simply nodded. "Apart from the common points you mentioned, they have another obvious point in common. The Mexican cartel, the Irish gang, and the Hellhounds, a branch of the Hell Angels, are all trafficking illegal drugs. Also, it's a long-term business. They fight and cooperate with each other. "
Pausing for a moment, she suggested, "You can investigate this. After all, it's not unusual for drug dealers to get into trouble. They're too ruthless and have too many enemies. It's just that most of the victims aren't strong enough to take revenge."
Luke nodded. "If they piss off someone even more unreasonable than they are, they'll be in big trouble."
Elsa nodded.
Luke's suggestion was very reasonable, and also the most likely one.
After listening to the concise and accurate analysis, Luke got up and didn't disturb Elsa anymore. "Shall we have dinner together tonight? Call Lisa too. It'll be good to talk about everyone's Christmas. "
Elsa pointed at him. "You can get lost now. Send me the time and place. I'll let Lisa know. "
Luke and Selina grinned and left.
Elsa had been working overtime on Christmas, and hadn't gone back to Miami at all.
Luke's words were like rubbing salt into the old lady's wound.
