He couldn't help but turn his head to look at the side of the boat not far away, which had a huge dent in it.
The reef that Luke had chosen to face the sea was slightly raised by a meter or two, and was blocked by some bushes not far away, so it wasn't possible to see what was going on from a distance.
The boat that the forensic scientists were working on, on the other hand, was in a slightly sunken bay that was much lower than the reef.
Thus, the pickup didn't see anyone here on the two occasions it passed by.
Narrowing his eyes, Luke suddenly said, "Selina, let's get to work." He then jumped off the rock on this side of the slope and quickly rushed to the pickup.
Taking out his badge, he shouted, "LAPD, stop the car."
The pickup paused for a moment, as if to slow down, but a moment later, its engine roared and it sped up.
Luke's nose twitched. Frowning, he drew out his Glock from his holster. Bang!
Bang!
Two shots hit the pickup's left front tire and sent it careening forward.
With a bang, the pickup crashed into a slope on the side and came to a stop.
On the other side, Selina had put on her clothes and was rushing over.
Luke didn't approach the pickup. He simply raised his gun and shouted, "Open the door slowly and get out."
A black man in the pickup looked at him in panic, but didn't move.
After Selina came over and pointed her gun at the black man from the other side of the car, Luke dragged the guy out of the driver's seat and handcuffed him.
The two people from the forensics department also stood on the reef and looked over. They asked loudly, "What's going on?"
Luke waved at them and then gestured at the boat behind the pickup. "Do you see the bow of the boat? You'd better come down and check the boat. "
The two forensic scientists walked closer and looked at the bow. "This bow … Could it have been caused by the collision with the small boat?"
Their other nose twitched. "Is there a body on the boat?"
The two of them looked at each other. One of them flipped to the back of the pickup and looked into the boat. Inside was an object wrapped in a layer of canvas.
He easily untied the rope that had only been coiled two times. As soon as he opened the canvas, he immediately put on his mask and shouted, "We found a naked body. White female, about 30 years old. It's starting to rot."
At this point, he shook his head helplessly. "Looks like we'll have to work overtime."
Luke comforted them kindly. "Even if you don't work overtime today, you'll still have to work overtime tomorrow. Maybe this will make you feel better?"
The forensic scientist rolled his eyes. "Thank you for your comfort. It's really considerate."
After that, Luke and Selina interrogated the black man.
This guy looked panic-stricken. He stammered and refused to say anything.
After interrogating them for a while, Luke gave Selina a look, and she went to call Elsa.
Rather than dawdling here, it would be better to throw this guy to Elsa for interrogation. With her abilities, she should be able to pry open this black man's mouth.
Lawyer? That was impossible. The Negro looked as poor as a clam.
If he really wanted a lawyer, he would find a public lawyer who could guarantee that the suspect would serve decades in prison.
Most of the time, public lawyers in such cases weren't very good, and it was impossible for them to do their best to help the defendant.
There was no money to be made in such cases, and closing them as soon as possible was what the public lawyers wanted.
As for how long the defendant spent in prison, it had nothing to do with them.
At that moment, Luke was glad that he had made enough preparations to have lunch here.
However, he and Selina had to walk further away, because this place was too smelly.
They returned to the reef in the distance and handcuffed the black suspect in the backseat of the police car, before they had lunch.
It was a rare combination of cheesecake and braised beef, but Luke could accept it, and Selina was even more satisfied.
Although braised beef was different from steak, the most important thing for a foodie was that it tasted good.
Half an hour later, Elizabeth and Billy returned and learned about the case from Luke and Selina. They examined the naked body on the boat for a while, before they took the black suspect back to the police department.
Even if there was no other evidence, the man could be detained for questioning on the charge of illegally transporting and hiding a body. They had enough time to pry open the man's mouth.
Luke and Selina had a leisurely lunch and even went to look for the boat that the pickup had pulled over.
With his Sharp Nose, Luke soon found the location, which was a simple pier.
Wandering around the pier for a moment, Luke took out his phone and called the forensics team. "Congratulations, I've found the primary crime scene where the unknown female body was killed."
“hey！ Can't you be a little less efficient? Damn it, we still have a lot of work to do here. "The forensics team couldn't help but curse.
While on the phone, Luke continued to examine the crime scene. "The body won't run away. But if there's a big storm, most of the crime scene will be destroyed. "
The forensics team nodded helplessly and said that they would send someone over immediately.
After Luke hung up, Selina said, "It seems that the woman didn't have a good life."
There was a shack not far away from the pier. Luke didn't need to go in to know that it was where the black man lived.
Along the way from the pier to the shack, there was a pair of sandals and the remains of a jacket.
Near the shack, there were even more torn pieces of clothing, including undergarments.
Without a doubt, the naked woman had been caught by the black man at the pier, raped, and died here in the end.
It wasn't hard to understand the black man's attitude.
In any case, the woman had already been killed, and he had been caught transporting a body, so there was no point in saying anything.
Shut up, Yan Ge. There were plenty of successful cases of people going home for the New Year in America.
The forensics team came over. Looking at the large area that Luke had kindly pointed out for them, they couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, I really have to thank that guy. This son of a b * tch is really energetic."
Luke patted him on the shoulder. "If you're unhappy, collect more evidence. He'll pay for his excessive energy later."
After the forensics team worked for more than two hours to clean up the area around the shack, it was already past four in the afternoon.
Luke and Selina sat in folding chairs and watched the two forensics teams pack up their equipment.
The female body on the boat had already been taken away. The two forensics teams only needed to deliver the evidence to their cars before they could call it a day.
Luke's phone rang again.
Seeing that it was Elsa's number, he picked it up. "Boss, what's up?"
