Luke sneered. "Don't think of rich people as stupid. As long as he wasn't an idiot, Wolf wouldn't leave any evidence that he bribed Lucas. Without evidence, nothing Lucas said would matter. Besides, Lucas wouldn't dare say the man's name. Mark Owen is dead, so why can't Lucabaddon die as well? "
Selina nodded silently. She had seen how brutal some rich people could be, such as the people in Wolfkyle.
There were always scumbags in this world who didn't respect other people's lives.
Sonia came over too. Looking at their expressions, she asked, "Is there trouble?"
Luke shook his head. "Nothing. Did you find anything else?"
Sonia said, "I took some time yesterday to talk to the policewoman named Lila. She told me something interesting."
Luke raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"
"She said that Lucas doesn't like colleagues who talk too much." Sonia had an odd expression on her face.
"And then?" Selina was curious.
Sonia took out a photo from a file. "Then, not long ago, the dog of a 'talkative' county officer died."
Selina took a look at the photo and immediately gave it to Luke. "Damn it! This guy killed a golden retriever? "
Sonia didn't say anything, but she was also very angry.
Many Americans regarded dogs as family members. It was almost standard for a president to have a wife, children, and a dog when he was abroad.
There was no need to mention Selina. Her old golden retriever named Dollar was her darling. It had grown up with her since she was a young girl, and even now, it was still her younger siblings' loyal playmate. He had made them grow up happily, and was definitely a family member.
Selina didn't mind taking out her gun and shooting anyone who dared to hurt her Dollar.
Luke was a little better. He liked dogs, but not to this extent.
Looking at the photo for a moment, he asked, "Has the dog been autopsied?"
Sonia said, "I'm here to read the autopsy report with you."
Luke rose and said, "Let's go and see what Officer Barton did, who didn't even spare a dog."
In the forensics department, they found Scorsese, a young man with curly hair.
"Any leads?" Luke asked directly.
Scorsese's face darkened. "A little."
Sonia looked at him. "God, you don't look so good."
Luke found that odd. "Hey! Scorsese, isn't it your job to dissect cadavers every day? "
Scorsese said, "Dissecting human corpses is my specialty, but dissecting dogs? It's not. "
Luke was lost for words. Clearly, this guy liked dogs too.
Scorsese took the initiative to avoid this uncomfortable topic and said, "In short, we found two bullets in the body of this golden retriever called Lightning. The caliber is a mini14 assault rifle. This rifle is still one of the standard firearms of the county police department. "
Selina asked, "The same one that killed Mark and Owen?"
Scorsese shook his head. "It's the same model, but not the same one."
Luke asked, "Are there any other leads?"
Scorsese shook his head again. "This is all I have."
Luke nodded and left.
Following him, Sonia said in a low voice, "I looked into Lucas Barton's background, and discovered that a charity organization called" County Sheriff's Home for Boys "recently bought four mini14 assault rifles."
Luke nodded and said, "It's normal for the county police to buy some guns for training, isn't it?"
Sonia sneered. "But this" County Sheriff's Home for Boys "is actually a private organization, and its founder and manager happens to be that level 2 deputy sheriff."
Luke paused. "A private charity that uses donations to buy guns? Is that what they always do?"
Sonia said, "No. Based on the purchase records, this is the only time the" County Sheriff's Home for Boys "has bought guns in the last two years."
Pondering for a moment, Luke asked, "But the bullets in Mark Owen's body don't match the marks on the four guns?"
Sonia said, "That's right."
Luke wasn't disappointed.
Lucas Barton was an experienced officer, and wouldn't make such a rookie mistake.
"Let's go and see for ourselves this incorruptible and impressive Officer Barton," he said.
Everyone drove out and headed east.
After asking at the front desk of the county police department, they learned that Officer Barton had gone to host the fundraiser.
"Ha, what a philanthropic officer," Luke couldn't help but remark as they set off again.
Selina, however, noticed something else. "County police officers are treated pretty well. We can go bowling as a group. Why doesn't our department organize something like that?"
Luke's expression didn't change. "… Actually, there was once, but we basically went home after work, so we didn't go."
Selina asked, "What? Why didn't you mention it? "
Luke coughed and said, "My bad. I'll remind you next time."
If they went to a group activity, they would spend hours bragging and gossiping, which was too much of a waste of training time.
So, he didn't want to participate at all.
Selina didn't think too much of it. "Home for Boys … That's a name, hehe." She glanced at Luke in the driver's seat.
Luke shrugged. "Men are children who never grow up. That's right."
But you look like a child on the outside!
Selina couldn't help but complain, "Are you talking about the people in the county police department?" She couldn't help but recall Big Nick's face. He didn't look like a boy at all.
At the venue of the fundraiser, Luke sighed at the bowling alley which had a huge sign for dinner. "Is this a fundraiser that includes food, entertainment, and food?"
On the other side, Sonia and Alessandro also alighted from the car, and they naturally moved closer to each other.
Sonia said, "Is this the county police department's perks? It seems much better than ours. "
Luke nodded. "That's right. You can talk to the boss and ask him to give us these perks as well. Hm, I'll support you in spirit."
Sonia rolled her eyes. 'Who the hell would want to do that?' This was a matter of money.
Luke said as he led the way to the bowling alley, "Don't give me that look. If the boss doesn't say anything, I'll treat everyone in our team … "
Boom!
A loud noise interrupted his words.
Luke turned his head and saw a pile of objects in a car not far away.
His expression changed, and he raised his head.
"Holy sh * t!" He couldn't help but curse. "Don't run around. Come closer."
