"What's interesting?"

Dean and Lawrence couldn't help but get excited when they heard that Daisy had gained something here.

Seeing that their appetites were whetted, Daisy smiled and rubbed her fingers at Dean: "Handsome brother detective."

"I'm younger than you!"

"Oh, handsome detective brother"

Dean rolled his eyes: "Daisy, we need to find clues about the identity of the murderer as soon as possible. Don't be too pretentious. When the case is solved, I will buy you whatever you want to eat!"

"you said!"

After achieving her wish, Daisy said:

"Barnaby has thirteen account numbers on the public record. I asked Old Hunter to issue an investigation order and expedited the transfer of funds for the other party's card consumption in the past year.

To my surprise, Barnaby didn't have much money left in his own account.

So I took a closer look at Barnaby's credit card history.

You have no idea how extravagant this guy is.

He spends more than 20,000 US dollars every month just to eat in high-end hotels. His clothes and shoes are all handmade and his watches are..."

Dean knocked on the table impatiently: "Get to the point!"

Don't know what's going on.

He felt like he hadn't seen Daisy in a few months. Daisy, a pretty girl with strong breasts and lace, was developing into a talkative American aunt.

Hear Dean's urging.

Daisy curled her lips aggrievedly:

“I found that Barnaby, whether it’s food or clothing, is very particular about brand names, and the places where card swiping activities are held are all relatively high-end places in Los Angeles.

Even for a night out.

Barnaby also went to high-end clubs and nightclubs with minimum purchases of tens of thousands of dollars.

So I excluded all purchases from these high-end places, and finally found a few unusually large purchases. "

As she spoke, Daisy connected her laptop to the projector in the conference room and displayed an electronic map of Los Angeles County in front of Dean and Lawrence.

Daisy controlled the computer and placed a red circle on an inconspicuous location on the map: "This is the living circle community of UCLA, where Barnaby made several unusual purchases this year.

The place of consumption is an individual company called ‘Eden Consulting Studio’.

Barnaby has swiped his card here three times in the past year.

The earliest swipe was at Christmas last year, and the amount swiped was US$30,000. The middle one was in early March, and the swipe amount was 45,000 US dollars. The most recent swipe was in June, and the swipe amount was 100,000 US dollars, which is higher than the previous two years. Frequently, once every three months on average.

Talk about it.

If he hadn't 'disappeared', he would have gone there again in September. "

"Eden Consulting Studio."

After hearing the location and Barnaby's consumption time, Dean knocked on the table and frowned: "Daisy, check to see if these time periods are before and after the 'UCLA' holiday."

Daisy snorted, crossed her arms, and said somewhat proudly: "I'm not stupid, I've checked it out a long time ago. The boss of Eden Consulting is called Gioia, and he is a student at UCLA.

Eden Consulting's annual turnover is around half a million US dollars, most of which is provided by Barnaby. In addition, the boss Gioia's family background also has some problems.

Several of Gioia's cousins ​​are all street gangsters.

correct.

Their information should be printed out by now. "

Daisy licked her dry lips, put down the barrier, and walked out of the conference room.

moment.

She took out a stack of information and threw it in front of Dean. She raised her eyebrows and asked for credit: "I was treated to a meal. Wasn't it wasted?"

Dean gave a thumbs up: "Excellent value for money."

Hum, that’s good to know.

Daisy snorted arrogantly, but couldn't help but smile. She grabbed the uneaten snacks and started to show off again.

Daisy is easily satisfied after dealing with it perfunctorily.

Dean picked up a few pieces of paper on the table that still smelled of tenderness and ink, and quickly flipped through them.

The police station has a color printer.

Therefore, these materials not only contain each person's profile information, but also have a color photo avatar in the upper right corner.

These people are indeed low-class bastards. They are all young, the oldest is only twenty-two years old, and the youngest is only fifteen years old. However, they have all been in trouble more than once for sneaking around, which can be regarded as a bad record.

Dean quickly memorized the character information and flipped through it.

When he turned to the third profile, he glanced at the photo in the upper right corner and sat up suddenly.

He met this person today.

And twice!

"What's wrong, Dean?"

Lawrence realized that Dean had made a new discovery and quickly came over.

Dean pulled out the third profile picture and put it on the table. He pointed at the photo of the other person and said, "Do you remember that room full of men and women?"

Lawrence nodded: "I will probably never forget that scene in my life. How could I not remember it?"

"The person hanging on the top is him!"

Dean said quickly: "When Carlo and I went to Barnaby's house, we saw this guy and his companions outside that house. They should be helping those rich students to do some laundering. The pimp business, I didn’t expect them to have something to do with Barnaby!”

Or.

The real boss behind the so-called Eden Consulting Company is actually Barnaby.

This guy has a wide range of businesses.

Daisy, who was eating, heard this and her eyes lit up: "Dean, did I discover the key information?"

I didn’t expect that I would actually make a meritorious deed!

Dean nodded, walked to the meeting whiteboard, picked up the oil pen clipped on it, and wrote Eden Consulting Company, Chinese Old Lady, Barnaby, and Huaqing Gang in order, and then wrote 'murderer' Opposite of these four names.

"According to the confession of the boss of the Huaqing Gang, the mysterious murderer, before attacking the old Chinese lady, first attacked the core members of the older generation of the Huaqing Gang and destroyed several smuggling and smuggling channels that their gang was responsible for."

Dean drew an arrow connecting the murderer to the Huaqing Gang:

"The main smuggling business in Los Angeles is controlled by the Mexican gangs, so the core conflict here is smuggling!

The killer attacked these people first. "

Finished.

He drew another arrow, connecting the Huaqing Gang and the old Chinese lady:

"On the surface, the old Chinese lady is a renter of a certain age, but behind her back, she is actually the elder of the Huaqing Gang boss and is responsible for the Huaqing Gang's money laundering business.

Said before.

Most of the Huaqing Gang's gray income relies on smuggling and exploiting illegal workers. They are the bosses behind many Chinese illegal agencies in Los Angeles.

Lawyer Barnaby himself and the law firm he opened are mainly responsible for this aspect of business, allowing those black intermediaries to exploit loopholes in the law and legally exploit those illegal immigrants.

That's how connected they are to each other.

Lawyer Barnaby, in addition to the law firm's illegal business, may also have a cooperative connection with the Eden Consulting Company, and Eden Consulting Company is mainly responsible for the pimping and enjoyment business of wealthy students in Los Angeles.

What they have in common is people!

The murderer also followed this relationship and killed each link one by one!

Except revenge.

What did you think of? "

"Find someone!"

Lawrence and Daisy said in unison!

Dean snapped his fingers: "Exactly right!"

Lawrence seemed to have thought of something, his expression changed, he stood up and hurriedly said: "Dean, if this is the case, then the remaining people in Eden Garden may be the murderer's next target. We must go there immediately!"

Dean shook his head and sighed: "If this is really the case, I'm afraid it's too late."

"Why?" Lawrence looked puzzled: "Dean, this Eden Consulting Company not only has gangsters in society, but also students from the school. They are scattered around. Even the murderer will find it difficult to kill them all today. Light."

"Then guess how he got a group of wealthy students together at the same time and then hanged them all?"

Dean individually circled the lawyer Barnaby, Eden Consulting, and the murderer:

"I never understood why the murderer could kill so many people silently.

now I know.

The murderer's initial target should have been the Eden Consulting Company.

I just don’t know why, but he first focused on the Huaqing Gang, and then found out about Barnaby through the Chinese old lady, and then found out about the Eden Consulting Company through Barnaby.

I suspect that he must have an acquaintance or even a relative who was lured by those bastards from Eden Consulting to attend a party held by wealthy students.

There are only a few ways of lying around and degenerating people into becoming playthings.

Drugging, inhaling powder, and making video threats

Lawrence, what would you do if you were the murderer and learned information about the Garden of Eden from Barnaby? "

Lawrence shrugged: "Of course I will find them, and then find out from their mouths who has hurt my relatives or friends, and then take revenge."

At this point, the two pieces of flesh on his face shook excitedly, and he suddenly said: "I know why you said it was too late to go to Eden Consulting Company. Dean, you mean, the people in the room who were hanged were The murderer’s final revenge goal, has he actually accomplished his goal?”

Dean sighed and nodded: "Yes, he should be the people who passed through the Garden of Eden, gathering the targets for revenge, and finally solving them together."

"What about the bomb trap in Barnaby's house?"

Lawrence suddenly felt a little confused: "If someone triggers the bomb in Barnaby's house in advance, wouldn't the murderer's plan to target those wealthy students fail?"

"Because that bomb was originally an early warning."

Dean patiently explained: "The murderer was not sure whether the Huaqing Gang and the police would find Barnaby's home early, so he set up a bomb trap in Barnaby's home in advance. This way, if the bomb was triggered early, he could change it. Location and interface, gather those revenge targets before taking action."

Daisy was a little confused when she heard this.

She shook her head, forgetting to eat the snacks in her hand, and asked: "Wouldn't the murderer be worried that those people would be frightened by the explosion and would not dare to go out?"

"Will not!"

Dean shook his head and said in a depressed mood:

"Do you know why there are so many cases where women who have been raped by a wall end up falling in love with strong men?

Because this abnormal ‘surname’ is more likely to bring taboo-like stimulation to people.

That kind of twisted dark desire is a spiritual drug that is more addictive than drugs. It will make those young people who have not yet established the correct three views sink into obsession.

This is also the reason why this group of people often do things that destroy their future.

It's not that they don't understand, it's that they can no longer escape the satisfaction and happiness those things bring them. It is an abyss with no way back. "

He is not like this.

In his previous life, he relied on women to relieve the darkness in his heart. In this life, he relied on his family and friends to imprison the violent and twisted beast deep inside.

Once these shackles are lost.

Dean didn't know what terrible things he would do.

Therefore, human nature, without all kinds of invisible influences and constraints, is actually more terrifying than a beast that is too lazy to move after eating and drinking enough.

At least wild beasts don't kill their own kind for fun without any reason.

Hearing Dean's sentiments, Lawrence nodded in agreement: "Daisy, don't forget, this is America, an America where you may be killed by stray bullets flying from nowhere just walking on the road. , Those people have big hearts, how could they not dare to go out because of the explosion killing people?"

Daisy glared at Lawrence.

FK, why did Lawrence, this thorn in his side, drag it on himself again!

Been following Dean for a long time.

Even with her broad mind, she had unknowingly contracted some of Dean's habits.

Such as being petty.

Being forced continuously by Lawrence.

Daisy made up her mind to have dinner another day. She must have a good chat with Phoebe about how to guard against men turning bad after they get them, and then give her some advice!

"In that case, if the murderer has already taken revenge and left, wouldn't it be difficult for us to catch him again?"

Lawrence was a little frustrated.

They don't even know now if the killer is a man or a woman.

"There are already clues." Dean pointed to the place on the map where Daisy circled: "Even if the people from Eden Consulting Company are dead, there will still be clues. Let's check if there are any in recent months. If someone is missing or seriously injured and hospitalized, there should be some gains.”

The unknown relative or friend of the murderer is most likely dead.

Otherwise, he would not start with the Huaqing Gang.

The murderer's revenge has an obvious plan. I don't know how much time it took to prepare, which can also prove this.

But again, as the saying goes: As long as it exists, it will leave traces.

The murderer can't escape!

"Let's go, Lawrence, call Hawke and the others. No matter what, we still have to go to the Eden Consulting Company to understand the situation."

Dean took several files that Daisy had printed out and walked towards the conference room.

"Um."

Lawrence followed quickly.

at this time.

In a quiet cemetery in Los Angeles, a man wearing a coat and a round gentleman's hat looked at the tombstone in front of him, with sadness in his eyes.
