Trafford Buyers Club

Chapter 795 There are many things

A police car stops in front of an old building.

Of course, the two police officers who drove up were no longer there.They were in the second-floor unit of this building at this time, and there were several forensic witnesses accompanying the team.

There is no doubt that there is nothing wrong with this being a homicide.According to common sense, this kind of murder scene should have at least several times as many people as it does now.

But obviously this time, there were more forensic officers searching for evidence than police officers maintaining order and looking for clues—as for the so-called order maintenance, it was actually just a cordon downstairs, even unguarded.

The reason for this is not that the police officers who maintain order in the city are slow to work or do nothing—although this city has always been civilized because of its poor law and order, the truth is that not only did a huge hostage-taking incident happen last night, even the Senate’s The President of the Senate was also assassinated on his way home.At the same time, the local chief José was also shot dead by gangsters in the theater. Now the entire police system has become extremely chaotic, and a large number of manpower has also been drawn out.

Various reasons finally resulted in the arrival of only two police officers.

"Mrs. Riley, please repeat, you are the owner of this house, right?" A police officer was pointing at Mrs. Riley with a recording pen.

Mrs. Riley said: "Yes, this house was left to me by my husband, and there are currently four tenants in total."

On the other side, police officer No.2 is questioning Arnold, the tenant of the unit where the murder occurred.

Of course, the questioning here is much more careful. The police officers not only turned on the recorder, but even took a small notebook to write down the important clues.

"Are you sure that you and the deceased did not know each other?" the police officer asked.

"I don't know, I've never seen this woman before." A Nuo shook his head.

The policeman snorted coldly: "You said you didn't know the deceased, so why did she appear in your house? We have checked the door that came in, and there is no sign of damage. Although it is not high here, from the outside You can also climb in. Let's even assume that the dead woman is a thief... But the most valuable thing in your room is the only air conditioner in the bedroom, right?"

"Officer, listen to me, I really don't know this woman, and I don't even know how she got into my house." A Nuo hurriedly said at this moment: "I have been in school all night, and I just left this morning... …The doorman, the doorman can testify for me!"

"Did I ask you this?" The policeman snorted coldly, "Why are you so anxious to explain?"

"I..." A Nuo swallowed, and subconsciously adjusted his black-rimmed glasses, not daring to speak.

From the outside, Arnold is not the kind of college student with a flamboyant personality who can catch up with the trend, but a nerd.

At this time, the communicator worn by the policeman on his shoulder rang.

After listening quietly for a while, he looked at A Nuo again and said, "Through the ID card left by the deceased, we found the personal information of the deceased. Guess who this woman is?"

A Nuo asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"Her name is Livia. She used to be a prostitute. She has been arrested before. I think she should still be in this occupation now." The police officer stared into A Nuo's eyes, and suddenly said: "Sir, do you usually have the habit of recruiting/whoring?"

A Nuo was stunned for a moment, and then said with a rather excited expression: "What on earth do you mean? Do you suspect that I have killed someone? Mrs. Riley was there at the time, and we all saw someone fleeing from my house by climbing downstairs. It's a woman!"

"Quiet!" The police officer snorted coldly, "You only need to answer the questions I asked, and you don't need to say anything else! Answer me, do you have the habit of recruiting/whoring!"

Maybe it was because the opponent's aura was too strong, A Nuo turned pale, and said quickly: "No."

At this time, another police officer who was taking notes with Mrs. Riley came over, and the two began to talk quietly.

Then the latecomer looked at A Nuo and narrowed his eyes, "You said, you didn't know the deceased? Then why did your landlord, Mrs. Riley, tell me that she saw a woman coming out of your house several times?"

"Impossible!" Arnold shook his head, "I really don't know this woman..."

"Really?" The police officer sneered, "Actually, it is very simple to prove whether this woman has been here before. There are surveillance videos in the nearby streets, and we can investigate the previous records. At the same time, there are many There are so many people in the store, if this woman really came here several times, she will always find someone who has an impression of her... Don't you think?"

Arnold's face changed slightly at this time.

"You're lying!" the police officer said coldly.

A Nuo's face turned pale, and he said hesitantly: "Officer... I do have something to hide, but can you tell us alone?"

After the two policemen exchanged glances, they brought Arnold out, "Okay, if you're smart, you should know and tell us the truth!"

"Officer, I swear, I really don't know this woman." A Nuo swallowed at this moment, and then hesitated: "But I think... I might know why she appeared in my house."

"You don't know? You might know?" The policeman listened and said angrily, "Boy, are you kidding us?"

A Nuo quickly shook his palms, "No, no, please listen to me. I... I actually have an older brother. Maybe he knows this woman?"

"Your brother?" The two police officers frowned suddenly.

A Nuo sighed and said, "Yes, my brother...we are twin brothers. It's true, you should be able to find the records in this regard. My brother's name is Haili..."

The police quickly made an investigation, and because of the information provided by Arnold, the information about Haili was quickly verified.

Looking at the simple information about Haili on the mobile phone and the appearance of Haili's ID photo sent by the headquarters, the policeman compared Arnold's appearance at this time, and then frowned: "It's really twins... ...You mean, the deceased was brought back by your brother?"

"Maybe, I'm just guessing." Arnold sighed and said, "My brother and I have a bad relationship. The last time he came to my house was two months ago. But a strange thing happened at that time. That means that a spare key from my house was missing. I didn’t think much about it at the time... But now that I think about it, I’m afraid my brother took it secretly.”

The police officer was puzzled: "Even if he took it, why did he bring this woman? Also, why did you and Mrs. Riley see another woman running away?"

Arnold shook his head: "How do I know this? I've already said it. I just came back from school early in the morning. I don't know what happened here! But..."

"But what?" the policeman asked.

A Nuo frowned and said, "After listening to you say the identity of the deceased, I remembered the past. When my parents were still alive, our family of four still lived together. My brother... Haili had already liked him very much at that time. I like to find girls, and I even bring them home directly to save the cost of the hourly room. And the deceased happened to be a prostitute, so I have reason to believe that Hailey secretly brought someone when I was not at home. Come up and do those things..."

The police officer snorted coldly: "Since there are such important clues, why didn't you tell them at the beginning? Instead, you didn't reveal your true thoughts until we found out that you were lying?"

A Nuo seemed to be driven into a hurry. At this moment, he grabbed his hair in pain and squatted on the ground.

"Because... because I don't want people to know that I have such a brother. Officer, if you have found his information, then you should know, my brother... What kind of a scumbag is Haili, right? ?Theft, smoking/drugs, fighting, hurting people, illegal traffic jams, imprisonment... I think his file should be as thick as a dictionary! And me? I have been studying hard since I was a child, and I have excellent academic performance. I am desperately trying to get into this prestigious university. In the eyes of others, I am a promising person... I don't want people to know that I have such a twin brother..."

Seemingly unable to control his inner emotions, Arnold suddenly raised his head and roared: "Can you feel that feeling? In this world, there is a person who looks exactly like you, but he does all kinds of bad things. Every day, I don’t know how many people hate this face behind my back! Every day, I don’t know how many people seek revenge on this face! You... Can you feel the fear and understand the hatred in my heart? ?!"

"Recently, because of my good grades, the department gave me an additional scholarship, and my supervisor also recommended me a very good internship company..." A Nuo took off his glasses, covered his eyes, with a little My son's crying voice: "If... if others know that Haili is my brother and that he may have something to do with the murder case, then I... all my efforts all the time... all..."

His shoulders twitched, and this young man in his early twenties squatted down in front of the two police officers, weeping silently.

The police officer who asked A Nuo at the beginning shook his head, took out a pack of tissues, and patted A Nuo on the shoulder: "Okay, about the things you said, we will check them carefully after we go back. Of course, you It is also true that he did not cooperate with us... But, forget it, we will not pursue this matter for the time being."

"So, you know your brother... I said Hailey, do you know where he is? Or how can I find him?" Another police officer asked at this time.

A Nuo wiped his eyes, took back his glasses, shook his head and said, "I don't know where he is. All along, he took the initiative to find me, sometimes even if I avoided him, he would You can always find me. Seriously, where can a person like him not stay? Today at this woman’s house, tomorrow at another woman’s house, maybe at the casino the day after tomorrow, and maybe in prison the day after tomorrow.”

The police officer took notes, and then asked: "Then when was the last time he came to see you? You said two years ago, do you remember the exact time? Did he talk to you at that time? Who did he mention? some type of?"

"It should be in late October, around the 25th of the [-]th." Arnold frowned: "I don't quite remember what I said. At that time, I didn't want to talk to this guy at all, and I was just perfunctory him."

"Is it gone? Want to be more careful, anything that can be remembered." The policeman asked.

A Nuo rubbed his forehead, then hesitantly said: "By the way, he seems to have said that day that he will have money in two days, and he will buy me a big house then."

A Nuo shook his head and said with a sneer: "What kind of money does a person like him have? Even if he has, I'm afraid he doesn't know where it was invested or robbed. I don't want this kind of money!"

The two police officers continued to ask Arnold many things later, and then told him to keep in touch and be able to find him at any time, and they didn't drive away until it was almost late.

Mrs. Riley didn't know what the police said after they took A Nuo away, so she asked concernedly: "A Nuo, are you okay? They didn't do anything to you, did they? Don't keep silent, if they bully you If you say it, I will sue them! This group of free food! Just know to bully us!"

"No, no, just asked me some details." Arnold shook his head and comforted him: "They were very polite to me, they were just curious about why the dead could come in."

"Yeah, how did these two women come in? How strange?" Mrs. Riley suddenly looked at Arnold strangely, "You...you really don't know?"

A Nuo smiled wryly and said, "If I could know, I wouldn't have such a headache... Now they have sealed off the scene, and I don't even know where I live today."

Mrs. Riley nodded, and suddenly said: "Unfortunately, the sewer pipe in my house just broke today, and it stinks! Otherwise, I will definitely let you stay for a few nights... Or, why don't you stay outside for a while? It doesn't matter. Yes, I can reimburse you."

"No need, I'll go back to school, there is a resting place over there." Arnold watched Mrs. Riley suddenly pull away a little distance, and without saying anything, he lowered his head: "I... I'll start Back to school."

"Then...well then, be careful." Mrs. Riley nodded without holding back.

……

"Sir, do we really believe what this kid says?"

In the distant police car, a conversation between two police officers began.

"There is nothing to believe or not." The person who was asked said casually: "We will go to the university to ask later, and then check Haili's detailed information. In addition, the deceased's mobile phone is still there, go back Unlock it and look at the last communication record... In addition, let the forensic evidence give the result as soon as possible, and then we will do things according to the book."

"Ok."

The companion didn't say much. Now the system is in chaos, and several factions have already started to attack, all wanting to snatch the vacant position left by José's death.

At this time, the police officer who was being asked suddenly said: "There will be?"

"what?"

"Two brothers like this. The elder brother is a villain, and the younger brother is a future social elite."

"A lot." He responded calmly.
