Legendary FBI Detective

Chapter 572 The Curse of the Cross and the Ruby Ring

 “A cross and a ruby ​​ring?”

In the hospital, Luo An was stunned for a moment before he realized what Lacey was talking about.

Hamid Hogan was in the ward just now and explained the reason why he had found someone in the criminal network to infiltrate Roan's villa.

Mainly because Hamid Hogan sought medical treatment urgently and learned about the legend of the Christa family treasure and the cross and ruby ​​ring as the key. He then tried to find the treasure and plug the $300 million gap.

During the investigation of this case, Luo An did not take the cross and ruby ​​ring too seriously. Hearing Lacey's words, he smiled and asked:

 “Where are those two things?”

"Forehead…"

 Lacie’s expression was very strange:

“It’s in the swimming pool behind the villa where we arrested people before.”

 “In the swimming pool?”

Luo An frowned slightly:

Lacie's eyes suddenly widened, and just when she was about to speak, Luo An interrupted her first and said:

“Call Riester Christa and tell him that we have found their family’s cross and ruby ​​ring, and ask him to send someone to get it himself.”

After a long silence, Luo An coughed lightly and said seriously:

 “Lacie, we have to believe in science.”

“He is the leader of the group of black mercenaries, and he is also the confidant of the African warlord.

Luo An’s expression became even weirder and he asked:

 “No one dares to take it.”

Lacie was startled, then reacted and smiled, raised her hand to give Luo An a thumbs up, and walked out of the room with a smile.

 “Who was the last owner?”

　　　…”

The last owner of the cross and ruby ​​ring…”

Hamid Hogan in the next ward also took the cross and ruby ​​ring for a while.

 The explosives exploded behind him, and he was everywhere, leaving no body intact. "

Luo An’s face was filled with question marks. Lacey swallowed, clasped her fingers and explained awkwardly:

“The first owner of the cross and ruby ​​ring was a 75-year-old woman named Krista, who was poisoned not long ago.

 When he was looking after Hamid Hogan, he snatched the cross and the ruby ​​ring into his own hands. "

　　　　???”

The two are now dead, and they experienced torture and torture during their lifetimes.

 Lacie pursed her lips and explained with a dry mouth:

“He was the last bomber in that operation.

After explaining, Lacey looked up at Luo An and said nothing. Luo An was also silent, and the room was silent for a while.

Although it was not long ago, he almost died in that villa. Now he is not dead, but half of his lungs have been cut off.

 “Why don’t you take it back?”

The second owner of the cross is Congressman Shermore Christa; the second owner of the ruby ​​ring is President Lucille Christa.

　　　…”

 After leaving the hospital, in the next few days, Luo An began to lead people to handle the follow-up work of this case.

 In fact, there is not much work, and there are not many problems that need to be solved by team leader Luo An.

 But there is one thing that Luo An must show up personally, that is, the special case handling funds that Lister-Christa stated before the case investigation.

Las Vegas, at the top of a high-rise building, a large office.

Riester-Christa, who has short dark brown hair, a pair of black glasses on the bridge of her nose, and broad eyebrows, smiled, stretched out her hand to shake hands with Roan, and waved her hand:

 “Please sit down.”

"Thanks."

Luo An smiled, turned around and sat on the sofa.

The secretary poured two cups of coffee for the two of them, bent slightly and turned to leave. Riester Christa first picked up the coffee, shook it at Roan, and said with a smile:

“As expected of Team Leader Luo An, he found out the truth of the matter in such a short time.

By the way, can you tell me the identity of the murderer? "

"certainly."

 Luo An nodded. As a family member of the victim in the case, the other party had the right to know the truth of the case. After thinking about it for a while, Luo An briefly described some of the circumstances behind the case.

  "African?"    Learning that the man behind the scenes was a warlord far away in Africa, Riester Christa's brows suddenly knitted together.

Luo An’s expression remained unchanged, he picked up the coffee and took a sip. It tasted good, better than the coffee beans in Veranith’s office.

Roan had no intention of asking what Riester-Christa was going to do afterwards. He just heard from Veranith that Mr. Clement seemed to have contacted the CIA.

What Mr. Clement’s thoughts and plans are? There is too little information at the moment for Luo An to guess.

However, as for the CIA, Luo An did not think they would take action to eliminate the warlord in a short time. After all, various political factors in Africa are too complex.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　∣

Just as Luo An was sipping coffee, the door to the office suddenly opened, and Lacosa O'Dell, dressed in a red women's suit, with **** lips and an unusually eye-catching temperament, walked in with her head held high.

Liester Christa's secretary stood at the door, so overwhelmed by Lexa O'Dell's aura that she lowered her head and didn't dare to speak at all.

However, Lexa O'Dell's aura had no effect on Roan at all. He stood up, stretched out his hand and said with a smile:

 “Good morning, Miss Lacosa.”

 “Good morning, Team Leader Luo An.”

 Lekesha O'Dell stretched out her hand to shake Luan's hand, and asked with a smile:

“I heard that the case has been solved? Team leader Luo An, you can always bring me a big surprise.”

Roan smiled slightly. When he first came to the office, Riester-Christa asked his secretary to put the 10 million US dollars in special case-handling funds into the account number of Investigation Team No. 13.

 Seeing that the soon-to-be couple in front of him had something to talk about, after a few brief greetings with Lexa O'Dell, Luo An stood up and left the office.

Caring back to a hotel in Las Vegas, Winslow, Lacey, Michelle and Chenelle were waiting in the same room.

Luo An pushed the door open and entered the room. The four of them turned their eyes in unison. Lacey rushed to Luo An and asked with a blink of an eye:

"How about it?"

 “How about what?”

Taking off his coat and throwing it aside, Luo An didn't say any more nonsense. He directly took out his mobile phone and posted the results of the case.

 Because Mona did not participate in the investigation of this case, she did not share in the gains this time.

For the rest of Investigation Team 13, Luo An received US$3.2 million as the team leader, and Winslow, Chenille, Michelle and Lacey each received US$1.6 million.

 The remaining US$400,000 was left in the accounts of Investigation Team 13 for future handling of other cases.

Ding-

Luo An put down his cell phone, and Winslow's, Chenelle's, Michelle's and Lacey's cell phones rang message ringtones one after another.

 Seeing the newly added 7-digit number in her account, Michelle's eyes lit up, the corners of Chenelle's mouth raised, and Winslow's mouth widened, and his back molars smiled.

Lacey jumped up on the spot and screamed with joy, then turned around and gave Luo An a big hug. Before Luo An could speak, she suddenly lowered her voice and whispered in Luo An's ear:

“Mona’s not here, do you want to go out with me to have some fun tonight?

I have met several beautiful girls in the past few days. I can share 3 of them with you...one with you! "

　　　…”

 At the end, Lacey seemed to regret a little, and temporarily changed her words and reduced the number by two.

Luo An's eyes flashed with a hint of speechlessness, he stretched out his hand to push Lacey away, simply arranged his clothes, and coldly snorted:

"I'm not that kind of person."

Lacey blinked and thought of something. Just as she was about to speak, Luo An continued:

“Stop talking nonsense, if you really want to thank me, go rent a sports car for me now.

Mona will come to Las Vegas later. The case has been solved and I need to take a good rest for a few days. "

  Lacie: “…”

Hearing this, Lacey looked at Luo An up and down with a strange look on her face. Seeing Luo An grabbing the coat next to him and trying to throw it away, Lacey quickly dodged Luo An's move, agreed with a smile and ran out of the room. :

 “Leave the car rental to me, I guarantee it will be no problem!”

Roan took his coat back and didn't bother to talk to Lacey. Then he looked at Winslow and the other three and asked:

 “What are your plans?”

The three of them had bright smiles on their faces. Chenelle said she wanted to go home to see her parents, while Winslow was going to the mall to buy some gifts for her son.

As for Michelle, she smiled and replied:

“I have borrowed fifteen books from the library and they are in the next room now.”

　　…"As expected of you."
