Chapter 9 Brothers

  Eno Commercial Plaza is located at the junction of three communities.

  The little fat man and the white girl did not enter the Eno community on the west side, but went to the Kale community on the south side.

  After a few minutes, the girl walked to the door of a gray-roofed villa and waved goodbye to the little fat man.

  The little fat man stood at the door and smirked, watching the girl go home.

  It took a while for the girl to enter the door before the little fat man turned and left.

  After walking a few steps, he found a black Harley-Davidson motorcycle in the distance, and a black-haired young man beside the car looking at him with a half-smile.

  The little fat man hesitated for a while, perhaps because of his guilty conscience, he took the initiative to greet his brother with a smile, "Wow, what a coincidence, why are you here?"

  Luke lit a cigarette and took a sip, "Was that your girlfriend?"

  "No, we are just classmates, don't talk nonsense." The little fat man denied it immediately.

  "I saw that you both drank milk tea with the same straw. You and your classmates do this?" the

  little fat man said angrily, "You are stalking me?"

  "It seems I guessed right, you really have a girlfriend."

  "Are you here to threaten me?"

  "I'm caring about you, you're too young, and falling in love now will affect your studies."

  "I didn't hear it wrong did I, you actually care about me, is the sun coming out of the west?"

  Luke spat, "Pay attention to your attitude, I am your brother."

  "So what? You are not my guardian."

  "You are right, I should tell my mother about this, I should congratulate her, maybe she will soon get to hug her grandson ."

  "We just went on a date, and we haven't done that kind of thing yet, please don't tell mom about it." The little fat man's tone was a little pleading.

  Luke didn't want to be too stiff with his brother. After all, he still had to stay in that house temporarily, "OK, if you want me to keep it a secret, you have to promise me a condition."

  "Yeah, I understand." With that, he took out a handful of money from his pocket and handed it to Luke.

  Luke was dumbfounded, "What do you mean?"

  "come on, this is all the pocket money I have." Although the little fat man was reluctant, he still gave the money to Luke's hands, and his skillful movements made people feel distressed.

  Luke counted and found a total of $126.

  "We've reached an agreement, hmm." The little fat man shrugged and turned to leave.

  "Wait."

  "You've already defrauded me of all the New Year's money that Dad gave me. That's all I have." The little fat man's eyes were red and his voice was choked.

  Luke took out another four hundred dollars from his pocket and gave the $526 into the hands of the little fat man.

  "What do you mean?" Now it was the little fat man's turn to be stunned.

  "Return your New Year's money."

  "Are you serious?"

  "Don't you want it."

  "No no no! I'm just too surprised." The little fat man took back the money and counted it carefully, "Why did you give me an extra $300?"

  "That's pocket money for you."

  "Oh, I'm not dreaming." The fat man slapped himself, an obvious red mark stayed on his face.

  " I still can't believe it." The little fat man was stunned for a while before he remembered something, "You just asked me to agree to a condition, what is it?"

  Luke said, "Don't call me an asshole in the future."

  "Oh... how did you know?" The little fat man was a little guilty. Since he was defrauded of his year-end money, he did scold Luke as a bastard behind his back, but he never said it in person because he was afraid of being beaten.

  "I'm a cop."

  "I can guarantee that the words brother and asshole are like two parallel lines that will never meet again."

  Luke put on his helmet, "good, get in the car."

  "I've long been I want to try it, this is the first time you have invited me." The fat man sat on the back seat of the motorcycle, the tires were obviously flat.

  Luke twisted the throttle, and the Harley let out a roar.

  The little fat man looked eager to try, "You know? I'd rather drive the Harley myself than sitting in the back."

  Luke laughed, "Go ahead and dream about it."

  …

  Saturday morning.

  Police Department.

  At nine o'clock in the morning, Luke arrived on time for the Robbery and Murder Division.

  The atmosphere in the office is a bit depressing.

  David glanced at Luke, "I thought you wouldn't come today."

  Under normal circumstances, if there is no urgent case at hand, the detective can rest on Saturday and Sunday.

  If there is a case, the investigation can only be continued.

  Luke did wonder whether to come today or not. He didn't know if it was because of the police's sense of responsibility or simply because he was interested in the case, but he still came.

  "No new attacks happened last night?"

  David shrugged, "I haven't received any news yet."

  Deputy Vincent said, "No news is good news."

  Raymond looked at the clock on the wall, "The first two cases The 'Taser robbery' were committed on Friday nights, before one o'clock in the morning.

  However, no police information has been received today. Is it possible that the suspect did not commit the crime last night?"

  Deputy Team Vincent picked up the comb and combed his hair. "The suspect left 'you like' in blood at the scene to provoke the police, and it is absolutely impossible to stop easily.

  He will definitely commit the crime again."

  Luke took advantage of the situation and said, "Will the suspect change the time or method of committing the crime?"

  Deputy Team Vincent thought for a while, "The suspect's crime characteristics are very obvious, and I personally think it is unlikely to change."

  Jenny turned around. With the carbon pen in her hand, "There is also the possibility that the suspect committed the crime again last night, but the victim did not choose to call the police for some reason."

  Deputy Team Vincent snapped his fingers, "Bingo, I think this is highest possibility. The suspects choose remote locations when committing the crime, and the victims may not be found by others before they wake up.

  Moreover, although the suspects stole all the property and clothings of the victims, the actual economic losses are not large. no one brings too much belongings with them when going out.

  On the contrary, it is more unacceptable to be stripped naked.

  Some women are ashamed to talk about this kind of thing, and may choose to keep silent."

  Jenny said, "Although I am also a woman, I can understand their situation, But I still think they are condoning a crime."

  "Crack..."

  The door of the Robbery and Murder Division's office was pushed open, and Marcus, a black man walked in, wearing a gold necklace around his neck and a police badge under the necklace.

  "Hey guys, here I come!"

  Vice Team Vincent pointed to the watch on the wall, "you're late."

  "come on, I've been up all night trying to investigate the case. You shouldn't treat a hard worker, a person who devotes everything to the police career like that."

  Deputy Vincent snorted, "You glib boy, you better bring useful clues."

  Ten minutes later.

  meeting room.

  Captain Susan sat at the head of the conference table and asked with a serious face, "Marcus, tell me about your investigation."

  Marcus took a sip of coffee, put down the coffee cup, and said, "Jenny, next time Put two sugar cubes for me, thank you."

  Jenny gave her middle finger directly.

  Marcus smiled and said, "Yesterday, I contacted some friends in the gang and asked them to help investigate the 'postman' clues.

  This kid is like a ghost, very hard to find.

  I spent a lot of money to find some news about him, He is a firearms expert, pistols, rifles, sniper rifles, tasers, they can all be modified.

  This guy is a genius.

  I showed him a photo of the modified taser, he admitted that he modified the gun, after he modified them, He put five Tasers on consignment at three gun stores.

  Joway Gun Store is one of them."

  Susan asked, "What's the real identity of 'The Postman'? Why didn't you take him to the police station for investigation? "?"

  Marcus said, "I promised my gang friends that I wouldn't touch him.

  If I catch him, no one will help me in a similar situation in the future."

  Susan asked, " How do you know that whats he's saying is true? If he's lying to you? Maybe he is even an accomplice."

  Marcus said, "I follow the rules, and he will follow the rules. If he lies, he will die miserably."

  Susan frowned slightly, and the atmosphere in the conference room was a little awkward.

  Deputy Team Vincent reminded in a low voice, "Captain, the focus now is to catch the murderer.

  This is not the Ministry of Internal Affairs... If you insist on those rules, it will only increase the difficulty of the investigation of the case."

  "I know this is not the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Susan Asking back, "Then do you know why the director asked me, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, to take over the position of captain?"

  This sentence hit the soft underbelly of Deputy Team Vincent, "I don't know, and I don't want to know."
