Legendary FBI Detective

Chapter 707 Veritaserum, positioning

Luo An did not rush to ask Lacey what the so-called news she said was, but asked with a telescope:

 “What is Evelyn doing?”

 “Evelyn?”

Lacey was stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect Luo An to ask this question. She quickly turned around and glanced not far behind her. She was silent for a second and whispered:

“She and Mona stood on either side of the coffee shop owner with their hands on their hips, staring at each other.”

　　　…”

Luo An’s eyelids twitched at the strong sense of the picture, but he didn’t pay attention to it and asked:

“In other words, Evelin hasn’t called Conrad now, right?”

 “That’s right.”

 Lacie replied:

 “She plans to wait for you to come back before telling Conrad the news.”

 “OK.”

Above the container tower crane, through the telescope, he saw Conrad and Sean who were on the phone and moved quickly towards the rut after finishing the phone call. Luo An raised the corner of his mouth, smiled slightly, and said:

“I understand, by the way, you just mentioned the owner of the cafe and gave you some information, what is it specifically?”

Hearing Luo An introduce the topic, Lacey quickly replied in a low voice:

“This so-called safe house No. 19 is located inside an abandoned factory.

 After we arrived here, Evelyn gave the coffee shop owner an injection directly...I suspected it was something like Veritaserum.

 While the coffee shop owner was unconscious, he said that a strange man chatted with him three days ago.

 The man spent $50,000 to convince the coffee shop owner to send a message to the man if anyone went to his safe house.

 As for the identity of the man and why he did what he did, the coffee shop owner had no idea. He was just doing it for money. "

Through the telescope, Roan discovered that Conrad and Sean began to search for containers near the rut marks.

Roan was not surprised at all by Lacey's narration.

  The incomes of CIA's senior staff and grassroots staff are very different. Field staff who hide their identity like coffee shop owners, unless the task is very important, their salary is not high in most cases.

Rebellion because of money is normal, and it is not surprising within the CIA.

After pondering for a moment, Luo An said:

“Lacie, find a way to get the coffee shop owner to make a mock portrait of the person who is looking for him.

 Then let Mona try to investigate and see if she can find out the identity of the other party and find the other party. "

"clear."

Lacie agreed and hung up the phone. Luo An put his cell phone away and was about to get off the top of the container tower crane when the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang again.

 “It’s me, Conrad.”

Luo An pressed the answer button, and Conrad’s voice sounded on the phone. He smiled and said:

“Shaun and I have found the message Anita left.”

"Yeah?"

Luo An asked with a smile:

 “Where was it found? What did Anita leave behind?”

 “It’s a USB flash drive.”

 Conrad did not go into details about his and Sean’s search process, but said directly:

“Leader Greenwood, we should leave.”

“OK, meet at the pier exit, I’ll be there soon.”

 Hang up the phone, Luo An looked at the telescope on his left hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, some thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he began to move toward the bottom of the tower crane.

 Seven minutes later, the three of them met at the exit of the pier. Sean started the car and led Luo An and Conrad to leave the place quickly.

During this period, Conrad showed the USB flash drive he found to Roan. Roan looked in admiration and applauded repeatedly. Conrad's expression did not change, but Sean unconsciously raised the corner of his mouth.

Roan later also talked about the situation Lacey had just described. Conrad did not conceal the shot that Evelin gave to the coffee shop owner. He nodded and admitted directly:

 “Yes, it is indeed Veritaserum.”

The Federal Supreme Court ruled that a confession resulting from the ingestion of veritaserum was "unconstitutionally coerced" and therefore inadmissible.

 The fact that regulations do not allow it does not mean that this method will not be used. The CIA does not care about legal regulations. The process is not important. They only want the results.

Luo An did not comment on Evelin's behavior. After all, the other party was a CIA agent, and they were not in the same group. The three of them soon arrived at the so-called safe house No. 19. As Lacey said, it was an abandoned factory.

Just as Lacey said, Conrad led Luan deep into the abandoned factory, where there was a fire-fighting equipment installed on the wall.

 Open the broken metal door outside the fire equipment. Inside is a metal door with a combination lock.

Conrad pressed a few buttons, and the metal door opened. Inside was a very spacious and clean room that was quite different from the abandoned factory outside.

Conrad and the other three stepped into the room with their heads down. In the center of the room, the coffee shop owner was tied to a chair with his head down and unconscious. Evelin was standing against the wall, looking down at her nails. Mona and Lacey were sitting in front of the computer together, sorting things out. and search information.

"How about it?"

Luo An briefly glanced around the internal structure of the safe house, walked to Mona's side, and asked:

 “Have you found anything?”

"No."

Mona shook her head, Lacey spread her hands and said helplessly:

“No one here can do simulation portraits, and the description of the coffee shop owner is intermittent. There are only facial features such as a big nose and big eyes, and the person cannot be found at all.”

"It doesn't matter."

Luo An gently patted Mona on the shoulder, looked back at Conrad, and said with a smile:

“Team Leader Conrad and Sean are very good. They found the USB flash drive that Anita left before she disappeared. There should be clues in this USB flash drive.”

Hearing Luo An praising him, Sean waved his hands repeatedly, but the corners of his mouth still raised uncontrollably. Conrad's expression remained unchanged, and he took out the USB flash drive and handed it to Mona.

　　Inserting the USB flash drive into the computer, Mona started typing on the keyboard. Soon she raised her eyebrows and said:

“Everyone, there is indeed something in the USB flash drive.”

 Except for Evelin, everyone hurriedly came to the computer. Sean asked:

 “What exactly is it?”

“Photos of some people, and their identifying information.”

Mona scrolled down the computer page, and several photos of white men or mixed-race men with different appearances appeared in front of everyone. Mona analyzed:

“These people should be the guys around the underground businessman.”

 “It’s very likely.”

 Lacie nodded, and Conrad asked in a deep voice:

 “Can we find their current traces?”

“Chile is a country where there is not much surveillance, and there is almost no facial recognition system.”

Mona’s words made Conrad and Sean frown, and then Mona changed her tone and said:

“But your CIA’s database information is very complete. I also have a miniature facial recognition program developed by your CIA on my computer. I should be able to find them soon.”

  “???”x2

Conrad and Sean were both stunned, feeling that there was something wrong with Mona's next words.

Luo An's mouth twitched and he covered his face helplessly. He felt that he would have to find time to treat Roland to a proper meal in the future.

 Under the gaze of everyone, the right side of the laptop screen flashed quickly with photos of various men and women, a circle on the left kept beating, and the percentage in the middle slowly increased.

 Not long after, the percentages came to an end. Mona’s eyes lit up and she introduced:

“There are six men in the USB flash drive, and their identities have been identified, but the specific whereabouts of only two of them have been found.”

 “Two are enough.”

Conrad leaned forward and asked:

 “Where are they?”

 “It’s in this city!”

After getting the specific address, Conrad immediately asked Sean to prepare. Roan gently squeezed Mona's shoulder and whispered:

 “Mona, help me check something.”

 “What to check?”

 “A period of monitoring.”
