North American Rough Police: Starting from the Los Angeles Patrol

Chapter 428 He didn’t do it, so why is he guilty?

At the dinner table, after Marianne finished her meal, she asked Locke with some worry: "Locke, let me ask you again, are you sure you can take good care of Jet and Hannah?"

Later, Marian and Li Bo will fly to San Francisco on the Greenberg family's private plane to attend the California Bar Association's council meeting. The council will announce the list of newly elected directors, and Marian will be selected for this list.

Tomorrow evening the Greenberg family will host a celebratory dinner in Marian's honor for attorneys from the California Bar Association.

They will not return to Los Angeles until the morning after tomorrow, and Locke will serve as Jet and Hannah's temporary guardian during the day and two nights they are away.

Locke glanced at Jett and Hannah opposite, who were also looking at him. He smiled confidently and nodded: "Of course, I have no problem!"

Jet is 17 and Hannah is 14. All we have to do is make breakfast and dinner, what's the problem!

Li Bo warned Jet Hannah: "You must listen to Locke and don't quarrel, let alone fight!"

"..."

Jeter was speechless. I'm an honors student. Shouldn't I tell Locke?

Hannah muttered: "Jet can't beat Locke..."

Jett didn't look sideways and raised his middle finger very simply, which instantly caused Marian to roar, "Jet Lee, what are you doing? Put away your damn middle finger!"

Li Bo also reprimanded: "Jet, this is not a gesture that should be made towards family members..."

Locke watched Marian and Li Bo take turns scolding Jeter, feeling very novel, as if he had seen his old self.

It seems that Jeter has also entered a rebellious phase!

After a while, Li Bo and Marianne pushed their suitcases out, and the three Locke brothers and sisters sent them to the door.

Li Bo will drive to the airport by himself, since he only has one day anyway, and the car will be parked in the airport parking lot.

Watching the Range Rover slowly go away, Jett and Hannah looked at each other and rushed into the house. When Locke came back, they both disappeared and probably went back to their rooms.

Locke looked at the leftovers on the dining table and was startled for a moment. He went to the kitchen to put on a bib and started to put it away.

Fortunately, there was no one downstairs at this time, otherwise, he would definitely be shocked.

Because Locke's movements are skillful and easy, he is no worse than a professional housekeeper.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Locke waited for a video call from Marianne from San Francisco. He took the phone and asked Jet and Hannah to say good night to her respectively.

On the phone, Marianne smiled and said, "Locke, it looks like you did a good job!"

Locke replied: "Yes, you can live a world of two with peace of mind!"

After hanging up the phone and returning to the room, Locke lay on the bed and opened the system panel again. The panel still had not been updated.

It seems that this case will not be charged to him.

……

The next morning, when Jet and Hannah went downstairs and saw breakfast placed on the dining table, they both looked at Locke who was eating breakfast with shocked expressions.

Today's breakfast is mainly Chinese style, including fried rice, fried dumplings, and a side of fried noodles.

Jet was shocked: "Did you do all this? I thought you would order pizza..."

Hannah pointed to the fried rice on the table, "I know this. We have eaten it in a Chinese restaurant. This is called Yangzhou fried rice. Locke, you can actually make Yangzhou fried rice. I like this. It contains corn, carrots, shrimp..."

Locke knocked on the dining table, "Don't be nagging, hurry up and have breakfast and then go to school. I have a case! I have to leave right away!"

When he was just making breakfast, he received a call from Madeleine Hill. There was another case and she asked him to go directly to the scene.

Jet pulled up the chair and sat down, curiously asking: "What house?"

Seeing Jet and Hannah staring at him curiously, Locke looked hesitant, and the two suddenly looked expectant.

Unexpectedly, Locke replied firmly: "This case involves U.S. state secrets, so I can't tell you..."

He didn't even know what the case was.

Jet and Hannah both looked disappointed, and then they turned their disappointment into strength and focused on breakfast.

Soon they finished their breakfast and got ready to go to school with their schoolbags in hand.

"Wait a moment……"

Locke called Jett to stop. He was not sure whether he would need to work overtime on today's case. He took out 200 US dollars and added another 100 US dollars. "If I can't make it home in time for dinner, you guys can order something to eat..."

Jet took the money and said politely: "Thank you, don't worry about us, we can handle it..."

Hannah caught up with Jett, who was afraid that Locke would regret it, and shouted: "Jet, I think ordering a pizza is enough, and then you should give me half of the remaining change!"

Locke couldn't help laughing when he saw how Jet and Hannah reacted for 300 US dollars. If they knew that their family had more than 1 million in assets, they didn't know how they would react.

He cleared the dining table and quickly went out, driving the F150 Raptor towards the site address in the work group.

……

Southgate, 135 Dixon Street.

Locke pulled over. Southgate belonged to the Central Division, and patrol officers from Newton Area (#13) had already deployed a cordon on the scene.

Locke showed the detective badge, and the patrolman on duty immediately lifted the warning tape for him, "Thanks!"

At this moment, the forensics department is collecting evidence inside the house, and the teammates of the second team are scattered at the door of the house.

Madeleine Hill is talking to two Newton Division police detectives, presumably to learn about the case.

Harry Sumner was leading Jack Talbot to question a middle-aged white man. The middle-aged white man was very fat, his face was red, his expression was sad, his body was trembling, and his eyes looked into the house from time to time. It was revealed that he was a member of the victim's family.

Raven Tate was talking to Brian Smith. When they saw Locke walking over, they all stopped to say hello to him.

Locke looked away from the middle-aged man and asked, "What case?"

Raven Tate glanced at the middle-aged man and said: "This Mr. Reilly Simpson's wife Judy Simpson was murdered. Mr. Simpson worked in a supermarket and was on the night shift last night. When he came back in the morning, he found that the door of the house was missing. After closing it, I found my wife lying in a pool of blood, with a knife stuck in her chest, and my home was robbed..."

This case sounds simple!

A typical home invasion and robbery case, but with the lessons learned from the George Green Villa Impart case, Locke did not take it lightly this time.

He asked again: "How long has it been since the forensics department came in?"

Brian Smith glanced at the applewatch in his hand and replied: "It should be almost an hour. Director Jane Horvath and the others arrived before us..."

Locke glanced at Mr. Reilly Simpson again. This guy looked very guilty. Could it be that he directed and acted on his own?

Seeing that Madeleine Hill had not finished talking, he said to Raven Tate: "I'll go in and take a look..."

Putting on his shoe covers and latex gloves at the door, Locke walked into the room. After glancing at the forensic officers who were looking down at their work, he also began to analyze the traces in the room.

There are many marks in the room, mainly footprints on the floor.

The footprints ran all the way through the room. The murderer must have been rummaging for something and woke up the hostess Judy Simpson. After being discovered by Judy Simpson, he killed her with a kitchen knife.

Well, according to this footprint, the murderer's height is about 1.82 and his weight is about 75kg, which does not match the body shape of Reilly Simpson.

Strange, he didn't do it. Why is he guilty?
