The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol.

Jubal booked several rooms in a small hotel near the local police station, but everyone was busy until the early morning before going to rest under Jack's order. Jack himself and Clay spent the night on the capsule bed in the car.

It is really troublesome to find someone in the United States, especially when this person has no legitimate occupation and no fixed residence, and is not much different from an invisible person.

Guys like Ronnie don't even have a bank account, and even the IRS's database of all taxpayers' billing addresses is useless.

Although the information shows that Ronnie should have a mother, the information is also outdated. A series of arrest records show that for more than ten years, she has been selling silver in various states in the Northeast and Southeast.

Early the next morning, everyone gathered in the base vehicle. The facial recognition program ran all night and finally found out the identity of the woman who followed Ronnie to commit the crime.

Alice read to the screen, "Raelynn Parker, 19 years old, from Clarksburg, West Virginia, has no bank account or credit card, no job and no fixed address. When she was 13 years old, she suffered a serious car accident. The whole family only She is the only one left."

"So her brain trauma was left at that time?" Jack groaned as if he had a toothache. One person has a brain disease and another has a brain injury. This case is difficult to handle. "Let me guess, she You must not have a social account, right?”

Alice shrugged, the look on her face saying it all.

"Let the facial recognition program continue to run. Just because the two of them don't have social accounts doesn't mean they won't appear on other people's social accounts. They can always find people who know them."

Jack was a little speechless. This was his first case of such high difficulty. Waiting was not the answer. If he couldn't find the current whereabouts of the other party, he would start investigating from the past. As long as he was a human being, his behavior would be logical after all.

In his previous life, Jack had a deep impression on a gangster nicknamed "Headshot Brother". At that time, the surveillance system in various parts of Jiangsu Province where he was located was actually very complete, but he still allowed that guy to escape back to Sichuan after successfully committing a crime in the provincial capital. Province.

At that time, the guy's photos were all over the major media, but the police could never find his whereabouts. Finally, they found his adopted girlfriend and fished him out.

Ronnie's photos had been sent to the state police and various local police stations. Jiejie sent them Lei Lin's photos. Everyone else had a computer and continued to dig up the past of the two until Jiejie and Jubal's cell phone rang at the same time.

"The missing Chevrolet Malibu has been found in the parking lot of a shopping mall in the city center." Jiejie's words lifted everyone's spirits.

"Hannah will stay behind, and Alice will go to the scene with us." Jack's strange arrangement made everyone look at him with suspicion.

Jack did not explain the reason further. Alice lacked a sense of involvement in the current case, so he could only let her go with him to the scene to experience it firsthand.

Even an old detective like Jubal would be troubled by a case, not to mention women who always have more emotional thinking than rational thinking, so Alice's previous reaction was very abnormal.

Trying to remain objective and detaching one's emotions can indeed avoid excessive interference from subjective factors in the process of solving the case, and at the same time prevent oneself from being affected by too much emotional investment.

But objectivity does not mean numbness. After sitting in the office for a long time, I face one case after another every day. I inquire about information and provide background investigation reports. How is this different from those white-collar workers?

Jack needs a technical support staff who is committed enough, or in professional terms, has subjective initiative, rather than an insensitive social animal or NPC.

It may sound contradictory to be emotionally involved when handling a case, but to be able to withdraw from it in time after solving the case, but that is the fact.

Garcia's hacking skills are not top-notch, but she always has some fantastic ideas to solve all kinds of troubles for the BAU team.

Jack didn't expect Alice to become Garcia's second best. After all, everyone's personality is independent. But if the other party still responds to his needs like a background board just like when he was sitting in the office, then the team will also There is no need to leave a special logistics position. If there are any investigation needs that need to be handled, Hannah can directly send them back to the operations center in the Federal Building.

Of course, this problem is not caused by Alice herself, but by the environment she was in before. So the solution to this problem is naturally to change the environment.

The so-called shopping mall parking lot is more like a small business district, surrounded by a small commercial street, filled with large and small shops, supermarkets and shopping malls.

The city center of Greensburg is not very large, and there is probably only one commercial street, so it is particularly lively. The parking lot is filled with vehicles of all sizes.

Because the police cordoned off the scene, a crowd of people gathered to watch. Even reporters from the local TV station were dispatched, standing in the crowd with their cameras raised and flashing lights.

Jack winked at Jiejie, and she nodded knowingly and went to negotiate with the media reporters.

A coy police sergeant from the local police station appeared in front of everyone with his hands on the belt around his waist. "Someone found blood seeping out of the trunk of the car and called the police directly. My police officer found the license plate number and the FBI report. The consensus directly protected the scene.”

"Didn't anyone open the trunk?" Jubal asked.

The middle-aged police chief shook his head and said, "There is no key found in the car. If you need it, I can provide a crowbar or find a locksmith."

"No need." Jack waved his hand, took out the tool box from his backpack and took out a set of lockpicking tools. He walked behind the Chevrolet Malibu and looked back at Alice. He saw that she looked nervous and a little dazed. , could only say hello helplessly.

"Alice?"

Alice was a little at a loss for a moment, until Aubrey beside her coughed slightly, took out his pistol, stood next to Jack and pointed at the trunk. Then she realized what she had done, took out her pistol and stood on the other side of Jack. Also make a cover gesture.

This is a standard search action, especially when searching the trunk of a vehicle that can accommodate at least one person. You must not let your guard down.

Jubal and Clay, who were standing behind them, looked at each other, knowing clearly that they both roughly guessed someone's thoughts. Sometimes sitting in the office and reading a thousand case documents is not as good as experiencing it in person.

In fact, when they saw the pool of solidified and black blood dripping on the ground at the rear of the car, everyone already had something bad to guess. Not to mention that it was midsummer, and the faint smell of corpses in the air already indicated that everything.

Neither Clay, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, nor Jubal, who has many years of field experience, are familiar with this smell. Even Aubrey, who has just left his status as a trainee agent, is the same. Jack deliberately kept him here in Central Park. On site.

Even so, when Jack took less than a minute to open the trunk of the car and the disheveled body of Madison Hargrove appeared in front of them, everyone still couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling.

"Damn it." Aubrey put away his gun and turned his head unbearably.

"Oh God!" Alice covered her mouth, tears bursting out of her eyes instantly. No one came forward to comfort her. Witnessing the corpse was a necessary stage for every field agent.
