Luke nodded. "Just give me a rough overview."
After Elsa summarized the key points of the case, Luke said, "Alright, boss, don't talk so much. Your throat is a little hoarse. You haven't been yelling at the two suspects all day, have you?"
Elsa helplessly took a sip of water and subconsciously lowered her voice. "What can we do? I'm not that oppressive. I can only raise my voice. "
Luke then asked, "Where's Selina?"
Elsa said, "She's helping Elizabeth and Billy in the interrogation room."
Luke rose and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore. Boss, you should get some rest today. Nobody can blame you for not working hard after solving two murders in one day. "
Elsa nodded helplessly. She couldn't really put on airs in front of Luke, since they had been partners before.
She watched Luke leave for the interrogation room.
It was like an interrogation room on TV. While Elizabeth and Billy bombarded Thomson one after another, Selina observed the interrogation from the one-way mirror in the room next door. She observed Thomson's expression and Elizabeth and Billy's behavior during the interrogation.
That way, she could pay attention to Thomson's anomaly and detect Elizabeth and Billy's problems.
Once these two situations occurred, she would inform Elizabeth and Selina through her headset.
In such an interrogation room, the suspects often had to face attacks from multiple detectives at the same time; it was very hard for them to survive.
Seeing Luke come in, Selina asked curiously, "What were you doing in there? You don't know … Hehehe. "
Luke rolled his eyes. "Didn't you see her" personal hobbies "with your own eyes? You've been getting more and more complicated lately. "
Selina snorted. "Then what were you doing?"
Luke coughed and said, "I went through all the videotapes."
Selina was lost for words. How dare you say that I'm complicated?
Luke said helplessly, "Those are videotapes, after all. According to the law, we have to take them back and file them. Do you think that's a good idea? "
Selina quickly shook her head.
If it wasn't necessary, it was better not to bring that kind of thing back. It was very likely that when it was put into the file, it would be copied and sold for money.
That was Jennifer Perry's absolute privacy, which could be sold for millions of dollars. With so much money, few officers would care about their work or their professional ethics.
"Since I've promised Jennifer, I can only look through it there. What if there were some missing clues? Don't forget, Jennifer is the employer of two victims and two suspects. This case is all about her money. Are you sure she's okay? "he said.
Selina thought for a moment and nodded. "That makes sense. What happened in the end? You didn't find anything, did you? "
Luke nodded. "There are basically three serial numbers in that batch of videotapes. Two of them were with Jennifer and the two maids, and one was with the three of them, but that was it. "
Selina clicked her tongue and looked at him. "What a feast for your eyes!"
Luke chuckled. "As long as you're willing to spend money, you can go to the San Fernando Valley and get a dozen people to record a bunch of the same videos for you. It's just that people have different identities. But remember, identity isn't the most important thing for us. We need to be wary of people who are strong and influential. Everything should be fine here, right? Get Lisa out here. I'll give her the keys back. "
Selina rolled her eyes and spoke into the walkie-talkie.
Elizabeth soon came over and took the keys.
Luke even encouraged her. "You'll have to work hard on this case. Don't worry about the Wever case. Give me the file tomorrow and we'll decide what to do. "
Elizabeth understood and nodded quickly. "Got it. Luke, don't worry. Okay, Selina, don't worry too. "
Selina chuckled and gave her a disdainful expression, indicating that she had heard the second half of Luke's words clearly. She then left with her bag.
Luke followed her with a smile and waved goodbye.
Elizabeth was full of energy.
Luke's meaning was obvious: if they worked hard on the case, they would get credit for it.
For Elizabeth and Billy, the two new detectives, what they needed the most was credit.
As long as they made more credit quickly, they wouldn't have to be cautious all the time, fearing that they would make mistakes.
Some veteran detectives had a habit of giving newcomers the cold shoulder. Such people were common in every profession in the world, and were even more common among police detectives.
Once they made more credit, they wouldn't put on airs in front of them. After all, the newcomers had made as much credit as they did. If they put on airs, it would only mean that they were useless, and that they had the same achievements as the newcomers at their age.
Luke and Selina left the police department and headed home.
After they got home, Selina took off her coat, threw off her shoes, and threw down her bag. She immediately threw herself on the couch. "Gosh, home is the best. That villa is beautiful, but I don't feel comfortable sitting there."
Luke smiled. "I'll make dinner. You'd better take a shower first."
Pretending that she didn't hear anything, Selina picked up the remote and turned on the TV. "Hey, let me see. Where's the TV series I ordered? Haha, it's here. "
Luke heard the advertisement before he entered the kitchen. "… What made them work together to hide this secret? Everything is revealed in 'The Snake and Scorpion Maid' … "
Luke was lost for words. Weren't all the maids who died today? If they were snakes, what were the two men? Wolves or hyenas, perhaps! For the benefit of their mouths, they were willing to go to any lengths.
From the videotapes and the intelligence he had seen, as well as the interrogation statements that Elsa and Selina had just given him, Luke basically figured out what the two serial cases were about.
To put it simply, the cause of the two cases could be summed up in one word — money.
Millis and Manny, the two maids, had been receiving a lot of bonuses from Jennifer for their "in-depth" and "personal" service.
The younger Millis, however, was even more restless. She had thought of secretly filming some "evidence" and blackmailing them. She had expected that it would be at least a million dollars.
Unfortunately, she wasn't a professional at all. Morgan had discovered her while she was playing with the camera, and she had been so scared that she revealed her intentions.
Morgan, on the other hand, wasn't a gentleman either. He had successfully blackmailed her.
Moreover, this Morgan was a bit more professional and had a bigger heart.
After getting Millis's help, he offered to help her with the troublesome process, from filming to blackmail, on the condition that he would get half of it.
Millis couldn't resist. Morgan even said that she was too narrow-minded, and that a few million dollars wasn't worth the private videotapes, which could be sold for tens of millions of dollars.
