Los Angeles Detective

  The morning of September 2nd.

 Robbery and Murder Division interrogation room.

As soon as Luke entered the interrogation room, he felt a sinister gaze.

Annika Carmen was seen sitting on the interrogation chair, staring at him fiercely, and asked, "Where is my cocoa? What did you do to it?"

Xiao Hei rolled his eyes, "Instead of caring about that dog, you might as well care about yourself."

"Cocago is my family, the daughter I raised since childhood. I don't allow anyone to hurt her, including you."

Xiao Hei leaned close to Luke and whispered, "I think this woman is crazy. Do you want to do a mental evaluation on her?"

 Luke shook his head. Through the previous exchanges, he felt that there was nothing wrong with this woman's mind. Simply put, she just loved dogs.

Having interests and hobbies is a good thing, but everything must have a degree. Once it is excessive, a good thing will turn into a bad thing.

Luke said, "Since you want to talk about dogs, let me talk about your dog first." Luke took out a photo of Hedda Cartman and asked, "Did your dog attack this woman in Mogaro Forest Park?"

“No, cocoa can’t bite.” Annika Carmen denied it simply, as if the answer had already appeared in her mind.

“We found the remains and severed fingers of Hedda Cartman in the corpse pit in Mogaro Forest Park. According to the forensic identification, the deceased Hedda Cartman suffered bite wounds before her death.

 The tooth mark identification of the wound is exactly the same as that of your dog.

 With this evidence, it’s useless even if you want to deny it. "

 Annika Carmen lowered her head and did not react.

Luke continued, "In addition, we also dug up pieces of clothing and dog tags with Hedda Cartman's blood in your yard. This shows that you are also an insider and participant in the case. Stop running away. .

 You should know very well in your heart that you cannot get out of this interrogation room without a clear explanation. "

Annika Carmen’s eyes were red and her voice choked, “It was just an accident, but it was not intentional. Please don’t kill it.”

Luke took the opportunity to ask, "What's the accident? Why did your dog bite Hedda Cartman?"

Annika Carmen wiped her eyes, as if she knew she could no longer escape, and said slowly, "On the night of August 24th, I took Coco for a walk.

 At that time, I saw that there was no one else in Mogaro Forest Park, so I let go of Coco's leash.

 Coco was as happy as a child, running around in the park.

At that time, a friend called me. We hadn’t seen each other for a while, so we started chatting.

 Keke ran in front and I followed behind. He listened to me very well and would run back immediately as soon as I called him, so I wasn’t worried about him getting lost.

 I just finished a phone call with my friend and was about to go find Coco.

 Suddenly, I heard a dog barking, and then a woman shouted loudly.

 When I rushed over, I found that the woman was beating Keke. Keke was also enraged and bit her. "

“I quickly ran over to pull Cocoa away, but Cocoa was too strong and I couldn’t pull it away at all.

That woman kept hitting the cocoa. I asked her to stop, but she didn’t listen at all.

The more she beats Coco, the more ferocious it will be aroused, and the fiercer the bite will be..." Annika Carmen sighed and shook her head, "Things are getting worse and worse, Coco's hair was scratched out a lot, that The woman also bled a lot, and her injuries became more and more serious..."

Xiao Hei frowned and asked, "So you just watched your dog bite someone to death?"

“I didn’t watch, I kept trying to separate them, but the woman kept hitting Coco, she kept irritating Coco.

 Furthermore, I kept pulling Keke hard, but Keke was too strong and I couldn’t pull him at all. "

Xiao Hei asked, "Since your dog is so dangerous? Why did you let go of the leash?"

“Keke had never bitten anyone before, he was not dangerous and there was no one else around at the time.

 Mogaro Forest Park belongs to everyone, not just one person.

 Cocoa is a life, and has the same right to enjoy freedom as a human being, and should not be tied to a rope every day. "

“You are simply making a fallacy. Your dog bit someone to death. You are still defending the dog. Why don’t you reflect on your mistakes?”

“I know it’s wrong for Coco to bite, but Coco won’t bite casually. She must have angered Coco first.

 I feel very sorry too and regret letting go of the leash.

 If I hadn’t done that, none of this would have happened. "

Xiao Hei always felt that this woman's attitude was not correct enough and she treated human life as a child's play. He questioned, "Listening to your description just now, you rushed to the scene when the dog just bit someone.

 But in the end, Hedda Cartman was not saved.

 Have you really made an effort to separate them? "

"I have it, but Coco is too strong. Don't say it doesn't have a leash. Even if it has a leash, I can't pull it when it's irritated."

Hearing this, Xiao Hei wanted to slap him, "Why do you keep such a big dog if you can't control it?"

“Coco is usually very gentle, but it has never been like that before. This is really the first time...”

Luke corrected him, "A dog's tenderness is only for its owner, not for everyone."

Luke is not opposed to raising dogs. After he moved to a bigger house, he also considered raising a dog, but the prerequisite is that you can control it and have a suitable dog-raising environment.

This is not the first time that Luke has seen a similar situation. For example, a thin old man with white hair and a shaky walk is holding a golden retriever in his hand. He is indeed holding the leash, but as long as the golden retriever wants to bite, , the old man will probably be pulled down by the golden retriever, let alone grabbing the golden retriever.

The leash was just a decoration, and he had no ability to control the dog.

If it were a strong man like Luke, the dog would be disobedient and he would just grab it, drag it home and give it a good beating. A good beating would be enough.

 Dogs have a very strong class consciousness. You have to make them realize that you have a higher status and that you are more powerful, so that they will obey you.

 If it thinks you are weak and can be bullied, then your status will only be below it. It is not that it obeys you, but that you serve it.

Luke knew that Annika Carmen was too poisoned and it was difficult to correct her thoughts, so he changed the subject and said, "How did you deal with Hedda Cartman after she was bitten by your dog? Did you call 911?"

“No, it’s not that I don’t want to save her, it’s just that it’s too late.

Coco accidentally bit the artery in her leg. She bled a lot and died. "

  Luke wrote in his notebook, “How did you deal with it after that?”

"I was scared and anxious. I had never encountered such a situation before, so I dug a hole and prepared to bury her." "Even if the person is dead, you should call the police. This is the correct way to deal with it."

“I don’t dare...I’m afraid you will kill Coco.

 I was very panicked at the time. This was the first time this happened to me. "

Luke said in a stern tone, "You are not panicking, but you are deliberately killing people and burying corpses."

“No, I didn’t kill the person, I just buried the body.”

Luke pointed to a document on the table, "But according to the forensic examination, the deceased was not directly bitten to death, nor did he die from excessive blood loss, but from suffocation."

 Annika Carmen frowned, shook her head and said, "What do you mean?"

"Hedda Cartman was still alive when you dug the hole to bury her body. You killed her."

 Annika Carmen’s eyes widened and her expression twisted, “Nonono, this is impossible, she bled so much and was motionless, how could she still be alive?”

“Perhaps Hedda Cartman thought you were going to kill her, so she pretended to be dead.

It is also possible that Hedda Cartman lost too much blood and fell into a coma.

No matter what, she was buried alive and died, and you are the real murderer. "

 “Woooo…” Annika Carmen cried loudly, “I don’t know, I thought she was really dead. God, why did you do this to me? Why did you let this happen to me.”

 Annika Carmen cried bitterly and seemed unable to accept the fact that she had killed someone.

 After a long time, Luke continued to ask, "Why did you kill the homeless Teddy Colin?

 Think clearly before answering and don’t lie again.

The police already have enough evidence to convict you even if you don’t admit it. "

 The interrogation just now seemed to have caused a great blow to Annika Carmen. She hesitated for a while before saying, "Teddy Colin deserves to die! He has been blackmailing me."

 “What leverage do you have in his hands?”

“That day, he saw Keke biting someone, and he used it to blackmail me and ask for money.

  On August 25, our first transaction, I gave him all the cash at home.

He also promised that he would never threaten me with this matter in the future, and we owe nothing to each other.

 But just two days later, on August 27, he called again and asked for money.

I refused.

 I know that once this happens a second time, it will happen a third or fourth time.

But Teddy Colin was not reconciled. On August 28, he made another threatening phone call. If he did not pay the money, he would call the police now.

 At that time, not only will Coco be killed, but I will also be imprisoned.

 I agreed to raise money for him again.

 But I know very well in my heart that this is a bottomless pit. As long as Hedda Cartman's body is still there, he will keep threatening me, and I can't keep giving him money.

On the night of the 29th, I brought the tools to dig out the body and destroy it completely.

 Without the body, he can no longer threaten me, and no one knows that Coco bit the woman to death. "Annika Carmen sighed, not knowing whether it was regret or helplessness, "I just dug out the body when Teddy Colin discovered it.

 He was very angry and felt that I was cheating on him, and threatened to call the police.

 I warned him that he had already collected my money and if he dared to call the police, he would be arrested.

 But he said, I have no evidence to prove this, and he did not admit that he had ever blackmailed me.

 I was very angry and had to compromise. I promised to give him another sum of money, but I had to get rid of the body today. "

Teddy Colin smiled and told me not to waste my efforts. Setting a fire would only attract the attention of the police. It would be safer to bury the body again.

I asked him if he wanted to use this body to threaten me for the rest of my life?

I remember very clearly that Teddy Colin looked disdainful and said it was for my own good.

He also took out his mobile phone and said that he had taken a picture of me burying the body. Even if the body was gone, he could still call the police to arrest me.

I was very angry at the time because I knew that as long as I had this video, I would be blackmailed by him for the rest of my life...

 Then, I grabbed his cell phone while he was not paying attention. During the fight, I accidentally knocked him unconscious with a shovel and took away his cell phone.

 After that, I set fire to Hedda Cartman's body and the phone so that no one could threaten me.

 But what I didn’t expect was that the wind started blowing as soon as the fire was lit.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, not only burning the body, but also burning the surrounding trees. I was choked by the smoke and couldn't open my eyes, so I left.

 I thought Teddy Colin would run away too, but I didn’t expect him to be burned to death. "

After hearing this, Luke thought for a moment and asked, "Did you use an accelerant?"

"Yes."

 “Are you sure Teddy Colin wasn’t dead at the time?”

 “That’s right, he just fainted.”

"Lie, according to the forensic identification, Teddy Colin was not killed by smoke or fire, but you cut his throat with a shovel."

“I didn’t, you have no evidence at all to prove that I killed the person.

 This is a false accusation. "

Luke took out another piece of information, "The technical team found the same accelerant on both bodies. If you didn't want to kill Teddy Colin, why did you pour accelerant on him?"

 Annika Carmen opened her mouth, as if she wanted to defend herself, but could not find a good reason for a while.

Luke continued, "The evidence is now clear. Your lies will only offend the jury and the judge, and the charges will be more serious."

Annika Carmen looked dejected, clenched her fists tightly, and then slowly loosened her fists. She was silent for a long time, with a trace of prayer,

 “I want to see Coco again.”
