Turn on the perspective mode of the left eye, and everything in the study room, whether placed in the light or hidden in the dark, will be invisible. Soon, Edgar Austin's eyes rested on a book called "Archaeological Discovery". What caught his attention was not the book, but a piece of letterhead hidden among the pages.
Edgar Austin took out "Archaeological Discovery" from the bookshelf, and then took out the nicely folded letterhead.
On the letterhead was written something like this: I looked at the map that person brought, and the lines on the key were indeed part of the map. Combining the two, I inferred that the shipwreck should be near Jiuwei Island in the East China Sea. He wanted to cooperate with me, but I turned him down. The cultural relics on the sunken ship belong to the state and no one can appropriate them for themselves. I will go to the Cultural Relics Bureau to make a report tomorrow, and the search for the sunken ship should start quickly. I think if everything goes well, this will be another major event that shocks the archaeological community.
"Jiuwei Edgar Austin ?" I never imagined that I would help the police solve the case so quickly and catch their fox tail!"
At this time, Elaine walked in from the door of the study, with a beaming face, "Edgar, I called Director Ronan, and I told him that I found important evidence. Well, I also gave Major a little Report. Haha, I feel relieved just thinking about it.”
Edgar Austin smiled and said, "How should you thank me?"
Elaine walked over and looked at Edgar Austin with a smile on her face, "How do you want me to thank you?"
"I think... forget it, I don't want to eat Sichuan food anymore."Edgar Austin gave up.
Elaine smiled and said, "It's best if you think so. I've saved two hundred yuan."
Edgar Austin put the letterhead left by Professor Santiago into Elaine's hand, "Although you are an iron rooster, I still want to be a good person and do it to the end. This is the note left by Professor Santiago, and it mentions an address. You can probably catch those two suspects if you take people with you."
Elaine then opened the letterhead and read the contents.
Edgar Austin said: "I can only help here, the rest is up to you. It's useless if I stay, I'm leaving. If you need my help, please contact me."
"Wait a minute."Elaine stopped Edgar Austin with a surprised look on her face, "How did you find this note? Why didn't our police technical team find such an important thing?"
Edgar Austin pointed to the bookcase, "I was originally looking for a book to read, but unexpectedly I found this note in a book."
"Isn't this...what a coincidence?"Elaine looked surprised.
Edgar Austin smiled and said, "Didn't you say that I am your lucky star? I am also a blind cat who meets a dead mouse. It's just a coincidence."
Elaine, was still staring at Edgar Austin with suspicious eyes, filled with questions. The experts from the police technical team found nothing. When Edgar Austin disappeared, they found evidence and even found clues to arrest the criminal. When did he become so powerful? Just like Sherlock Holmes!
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, and then Major's voice came, "Elaine! As the director, you know your mistakes and make mistakes. This is the scene of a murder, how could you bring in an irrelevant person!" "
Edgar Austin and Elaine were stunned for a moment, both looking surprised.
"Why is that annoying guy here?"Edgar Austin asked, "Elaine, are you sure you called Director Ronan?"
Elaine nodded, "Yeah, can I still not understand who I called? Director Ronan said he would send someone over to assist me right away."
"Director Ronan won't send Major to assist you, right?"
"No, I don't think he has a good impression of Major, otherwise it wouldn't be my turn to be the chief."Elaine stamped her foot, looking annoyed, "But why is that guy Major here? "
As soon as she finished speaking, Major appeared at the door of the study. There were several police officers who followed Major. When they saw Elaine, they unnaturally avoided Elaine's sight.
"... Director Major, why are you here?" For some reason, Elaine momentum dropped a bit when she saw Major, and she looked very guilty.
Major sneered, "Director Jiang, you don't know where this place is, do you? How could you bring this kid here? You are destroying the scene!"
"I..."Elaine was about to speak when Edgar Austin behind her reached out and pinched the back of her thigh hard. Her mouth suddenly opened into an orange shape, but no sound came out.
Edgar Austin leaned close to her ear and whispered: "If you want him to take away your credit, tell him about the evidence and note I found."
"You are going to die. It hurts so much. You don't know how to pick a fleshy place to pinch..."Elaine gritted her teeth and said, her voice was only heard by her and Edgar Austin.
Where is the meaty place, where is she referring to?
He looked along Elaine's figure, his eyes stopped at a certain place, thinking that he would not dare to attack that place, "Why are you so afraid of him? You are a pig, no matter how hard you teach, you can't be smart! He is your subordinate , you still have the evidence and clues to solve the case, don't you dare to be more cruel to him?"
Elaine was stunned for a moment, "Yes, why can't I? I am the director!"
"Director Jiang, didn't you hear me talking to you?"Major said aggressively: "I'm waiting for your explanation!"
Elaine took a deep breath and suddenly cursed: "Explain yourself! Major, shut up!"
Major was stunned on the spot, and the entire study became quiet. The eyes of several police officers were focused on Elaine. There was no doubt that this was the first time they had seen their "Jiang Bureau" show off his power. This was enough to surprise them for several minutes.
"Jiang..."Major wanted to speak.
Elaine interrupted him again, "Didn't you hear me tell you to shut up? I am the director, you are just one of my deputy, a spare tire, it is not your turn to dictate here. What if I bring people here? Huh? I am here to solve the case! Look at you again, besides causing trouble for me, what else can you do?"
Her mouth is like a Minigun multi-barreled machine gun with full fire, and her spit is like the machine gun bullets that are sprayed out!
Elaine pointed to the door of the study and said sternly: "Major, please go back to the station and stay there while you guys stay to handle the case."
Several police officers glanced at Major, as if waiting for his instructions. Or perhaps they are observing and assessing the situation in order to choose a good camp.
Only then did Major come to his senses, and he sneered, "Elaine, it's not my turn, Major, to take command as the temporary director!"
A man's voice suddenly came in from outside the door, "What a loud tone. She can't command you. How about I command you?"
As soon as the voice fell, a tall and thin police officer appeared at the door of the study. He wore the title of Second Class Superintendent with a silver olive branch on his shoulders. He looked calm but not angry.
Although Edgar Austin had never seen this person before, he guessed his identity based on the title of Police Supervisor on his shoulder. He was the Director Ronan mentioned by Elaine . Sure enough, he soon saw the name on his work badge, Ronan Dempsey.
Ronan Dempsey did not come alone. He was followed by several police officers, including technicians carrying toolboxes and criminal investigators carrying guns. As soon as they appeared, several police officers from Beigong District Branch who were standing at the door of the study immediately moved out of the way and stood far away from each other.
Seeing Ronan Dempsey, Mr. Major was stunned for a moment, and then he came up to him with a smile on his face. He stretched out his hands and said flatteringly: "Director Ronan, are you here to guide the work?"
Ronan Dempsey walked directly past Major without shaking hands with Major at all.
Major's face turned red, and he retracted his hand in embarrassment, "Director Ronan, I just discussed the progress of the case with Bureau Jiang. I have already mastered important information and the suspect's appearance. Director Ronan Look, this is a sketch of the suspect."
What Major took out was the sketch of the two suspects drawn by Elaine.
Elaine: "Major, can you please give me some face? That was dictated by Edgar and I drew it myself. When did it become the information you have?"
Major said shamelessly: "Director Jiang, I know you are eager to make contributions, but some things cannot be rushed."
"You..."Elaine on the spot.
Edgar Austin said: "Director Major, you said you have important information, so you must know the true identities of these two suspects, right? You also know where these two suspects are hiding now and what they are going to do, right?"
"I..."Major was also speechless.
Ronan Dempsey's eyes fell on Edgar Austin. Strangely, there was a hint of encouragement in his eyes.
Edgar Austin continued: "Director Major, your mind is not on solving the case at all, but on how to delay Bureau Jiang from solving the case so that she can step down, right?"
"You're talking nonsense!"Major could no longer maintain his composure.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Edgar Austin's mouth, "You don't know that Bureau Jiang knows that, in fact, Bureau Jiang has already solved this case."
"Huh? What's going on?"Ronan Dempsey looked surprised.
Elaine quickly put what Edgar Austin found on the desk, and then explained, "Director Ronan, this is the evidence left by the suspect. There are blood stains and hair on this nail. We can find it based on DNA analysis." to reveal the true identity of the suspect. Also, this is the note left by Professor Santiago. It points out where the suspect may be. Without further ado, I think we should split up and analyze and compare the true identity of the suspect. While making arrests."
Ronan Dempsey looked at the nail placed in the tissue, and then at the note left by Professor Santiago. A delighted smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Elaine, good job, how could you think of doing it again?" Come to the scene to look for evidence?”
Elaine glanced at Edgar Austin and couldn't help but smile. "I think no matter how secretive or clean the murderer is, there will definitely be something related to him left at this scene. I couldn't find it last time. , that’s because we weren’t careful enough. This time I looked carefully and found the nail in the dust container of the vacuum cleaner. Then, I found the note left by Professor Santiago in a book. "
"Okay, very good, I saw you right."Ronan Dempsey was very happy.
Elaine glanced at Edgar Austin again, her beautiful eyes full of gratitude and joy.
Edgar Austin was also very happy in his heart. He didn't mind Elaine taking away his credit at all, because it was useless for him to ask for the credit, but it was very important to Elaine's future.
Ronan Dempsey looked at Major and his tone was unfriendly, "Major, please go back first. I will talk to you after this case is solved."
Major's head suddenly drooped. It is foreseeable that what Ronan Dempsey talks to him about will definitely not be a good thing.
Just when Ronan Dempsey called someone and several technicians were processing the evidence, Elaine came to Edgar Austin's side, stretched out her hand and pinched him hard.
Edgar Austin was caught off guard by her attack and said through gritted teeth, "What are you doing?"
"You pinch me, I pinch you, we're even."Elaine smiled softly, "Sister Huihui treats you to Western food. This time it's true. It's definitely not Sichuan food with a budget of 200 yuan."
Then, she pinched Edgar Austin hard again.
Edgar Austin grimaced in pain and wished he could reach out and pinch her a few times. Her skin was fair and elastic, so it must be very comfortable to pinch her? But in the end he didn't dare to take action. What made him depressed was that the little flame in his heart was actually awakened by Elaine's two blows. It was burning so fiercely that it was difficult to ignore its aggressiveness...
