[Comprehensive Film and Television] General
Chapter 62 Suspect Tracking 2
Carter found a credit card promotional email at Hannah's father's house, using Hannah's name, and opened an account in that name.
"1993? That was two years after Hannah disappeared." Peng Ziqian looked at the postcard Carter brought, and then at Carter.
"So, unless Hannah appears from the grave, otherwise..." Carter shrugged.
"...Don't jump to conclusions yet." Peng Ziqian looked at the postcard in his hand, and then at the two people in front of him, feeling that this conclusion was a bit hasty.
"What's your opinion?" Reese turned his head and looked at her. Although he used to be a cia and Carter had been a policeman for a long time, they didn't have any in-depth research on mental illness crimes, so they had to think carefully about this. The words of the little fbi girl.
"I'm just offering a possibility, it's an impostor." Peng Ziqian returned the postcard to Carter, looked at the two of them, "Do you remember that testimony?"
"It was mentioned in the testimony that Hannah got into the car by herself, without coercion, without calling for help...she did it voluntarily."
"So the kidnapper of Hannah is likely to be someone they know?" Carter frowned.
"This town is not big, I believe everyone should be familiar with each other at that time." Peng Ziqian rummaged through the files scattered on the car seat beside him, and then found a list of witnesses "Since most of you are acquaintances, then they are likely to disguise themselves as witnesses after the fact." She passed the list to Reese to look at.
"So, we're going to go door-to-door and knock on doors?"
"We can actually narrow it down, we can call the sheriff and ask the sheriff, who are the people on this list who were able to drive financially and who were well-known in the local area."
At that time, there were not many people who could afford a car, and the number of people on the list was even more pitiful. As expected, according to Peng Ziqian's positioning method, they easily locked on the only target on the list, Tren. trussel.
After getting the name, Peng Ziqian turned around and dialed Garcia's number.
"Hey, my little one, do you need help?" Garcia's voice on the other end of the phone sounded as usual.
"Garcia, can you check someone for me?"
"Oh... why am I not surprised, let me tell you."
"Trent Russell, from Bishop, Texas."
"What do you want to know?"
"Everything, does he have any criminal record?"
"Uh... I was prosecuted for child molestation in 1988, but the charge was dropped... Oh..." Peng Ziqian could hear Garcia's fast typing on the keyboard on the other end of the phone, and then the other party paused "1997 In [-], he was shot and killed by what appeared to be a drug dealer, but he was not caught."
"Drug dealer? Why? Did he launder money?"
"There is no..."
"Okay, Garcia checks if there is any cross between his name and Hannah Frey?"
"Uh... Hannah... Hannah... oh, there, he set up a joint account with Hannah Frey in 1993."
"..." Peng Ziqian was using the hands-free, so Carter and Reese next to him could hear it clearly, and the three of them looked at each other.
"Uh... do you need any help?" Garcia, who was not used to silence on the other end of the phone, asked, "I just found out that Hannah Frey disappeared in 91? Are you investigating a case? Need me to inform Hutch and them ?"
"Oh, no, no, I can handle it, thank you for your help." Peng Ziqian quickly replied.
"Well, just come to me if you need it. Come back early, and you can see the cute little boy born by jj."
"I can't wait." Peng Ziqian smiled and hung up the phone.
"So... this is Gen's method, stealing money from drug dealers and planting it on Russell." Carter deduced.
"No one will suspect a dead little girl. Once Russell dies, the money will be hers." Rees frowned and thought of this.
"Anyway, we have to go to Russell's house." Peng Ziqian shrugged.
When they arrived at Russell's house, they were surprised to find that Russell's widow was the administrator aunt that Peng Ziqian and Reese had met in the library earlier.
"You are Mrs. Russell?" asked Carter.
"Yes." The other party nodded.
"Can we go in and talk?"
This Mrs. Russell was kind enough to let them in.
"Mrs. Russell, does your husband know Hannah Frey?" Rees didn't want to beat around the bush, so he asked straight to the point.
"...No, he doesn't know her..."
Peng Ziqian noticed that she paused before saying this, and her eyes were a little wandering, so she knew that the other party was lying, "Can we take a look around?"
"No, I don't mind." Although Mrs. Russell said so, her attitude was completely ignored in Rhys' eyes.
After scouring the house, Reese found a vintage car in the back warehouse. "Do you remember the license plate number from that call?"
"925esk." Peng Ziqian replied immediately, she could still remember every detail on the file very clearly.
"Maybe she remembered it wrong," Rees said.
"Or the operator made a mistake." Carter excused. "That would explain why he wanted to frame Russell."
"No matter what it is, we can apply for a search warrant." Peng Ziqian turned his head and saw Mrs. Russell standing at the door with a nervous face.
The sheriff was notified, and they entered the formal channels for handling the case. Carter was asking Mrs. Russell, but the other party didn't seem to cooperate very much, and his eyes wandered, unwilling to say anything more.This made Reese very irritable.
Peng Ziqian walked around Russell's house, and when he walked in one direction, he glanced at the bookshelf, and saw a neat row of books of the same edition on the bottom of the bookshelf.
She took the last one and came over. "Mrs. Russell, can you explain why you have the same edition of "A Bouquet for Algernon" on your bookcase?"
"..."
Peng Ziqian looked across at Mrs. Russell who saw the book she was holding with a dull expression, then walked over and looked down at her with his hands on the edge of the table, and continued to ask, "Mrs. Russell, is your marriage happy?"
"?" Under the puzzled eyes of the other party, she continued to ask, "After you married Russell, did you feel that your marriage was only maintained on the surface? Do you know that Mr. Russell was arrested before coming here? Have you ever been accused of molesting a child?" Amid the face of the other party who changed little by little, she continued her efforts, "Exactly [-] books, you buy the same book every year, is it to commemorate Hannah?"
"Those books were sent over!" Peng Ziqian's repeated questioning, the other party finally said this sentence tremblingly, "On the same day every year, they are sent over from all over the country, tormenting me and reminding me."
"April [-]th." Peng Ziqian said, and then she rubbed her eyes, "So, Mrs. Russell, where was Hannah buried by him?"
"..." Madam Russell was silent for a moment, then turned her head to look at the platform outside the window behind her. "That platform was renovated by Trent two weeks after Hannah disappeared."
The implication was very obvious, and the sheriff immediately stood up and prepared to dispatch people to dig that place manually.
"How do you know that Hannah must be dead?" Carter asked, which was also Reese's question.
"If Hannah is not dead, then her hatred will end after Russell's death. She has an anti-social personality at all. She has been sending books to Mrs. Russell for so many years, which makes her feel uneasy. She regards this as a This kind of punishment, but she didn't take it as fun, because she punished Mr. Russell in an extreme way, and making people around the prisoner feel guilty was a substitute. She wanted Mrs. Russell to realize that the most important person The pain of loss, this is personal enmity, not anger, so this person must have a problem with Mrs. Russell. It cannot be Hannah, but it is more likely to be someone close to Hannah." She said and turned her head to look Lady Russell "Did Hannah have any particularly close friends back then?"
"... Hannah is very popular."
"The kind of friend that Hannah takes special care of, she is a girl, she may not be very prominent, her interpersonal relationship is not extensive, her family may be a single parent, her childhood was not very happy, and she was with Hannah that night. She was the one who called the police people."
"..." The other party thought for a while, then closed his eyes and said, "Sam Groves."
"Are you so sure?"
"Because she later said the same thing to me, she said she thought it was Trent who took Hannah, but I scolded her."
"Maybe because of your protection, she has been angry for so many years." Peng Ziqian curled his lips, "Where is she now?"
"Sam? Her mother died ten years ago, and she left here after that. No one knows where she went."
"..."
"..."
Hearing these clueless words, Peng Ziqian and Carter looked at each other, and then she saw the disappointed expression of Reese who had been listening behind Carter.
Reese would not give up looking for Harold, he knew he would continue to think of a way, but he was a little disappointed that the clue was broken, but he was not reconciled after thinking about it, the machine would definitely not just spit out Hannah's number to him He wanted him to turn over such an old case, so there must be something else hidden in it, but they didn't find it.
He thought so, and then his eyes fell on the sixteen neatly arranged books beside him. The stack was arranged in chronological order, and the one on top was the He picked it up and flipped through it, and suddenly found a sign in the book, with the name of a bookstore written on it, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration.
He can look up the credit card records of the book buyers through this bookstore. Of course, he doesn't expect to find Gen's real name, but if Gen has not realized that they are about to catch up with her, then she may still use this book in a short time. credit card.
He dare not say that it will be successful, but it is worth a try.
Looks like Reese's luck isn't off the charts yet, so they track down Root anyway.
Peng Ziqian followed Reese to the east, while Carter stayed behind to deal with the funeral of Hannah's case. When they arrived at the location, they found that they were one step too late, and only a dead body and a mobile phone number that was not broadcast were left there.
"Tapping game." Reese squatted down and looked at the number on the phone, and smiled at Peng Ziqian after a while, "Looks like we have to solve the crossword puzzle." Then he went to the table and turned over a piece of paper to start the list, When he listed out the password list and prepared to guess the word, Peng Ziqian said on the side, "the train station, they are going to the train station." Then she looked at Reese, and she felt that she no longer needed to follow up on the rest , Reese can settle it all by himself, "You brought back Uncle Harold, right?"
"Of course." The other party gave her such an answer.
"Okay, go chase your good friend, I'm going back to Washington."
It was dusk when Peng Ziqian arrived in Washington, thinking that the FBI building was also closed, so she didn't rush to report, but directly transferred to the hospital where JJ Garcia told her before.
When she walked into JJ's ward, she saw that JJ was sitting on the bed, holding the child, and it was not her husband sitting opposite her, but Rhett.The two of them seem to be coaxing the baby.
It was JJ who was facing the door who first spotted Peng Ziqian standing at the door, she smiled at her, and then Rhett turned his head and saw her "Hey, are you back?"
"Obviously." Peng Ziqian walked in, and sat beside Ruide to make way for the vacant seat that will be left later, "Why are you here alone?"
"I discussed with William about making Rhett the child's godfather." It was jj who answered for Rhett.
"In this case, it can guarantee that the child can enter Yale when he grows up." Peng Ziqian suddenly felt the mobile phone in his pocket vibrate when he said this, then reached out to find the mobile phone, and looked down to see that it was a text message...only two words [ Thanks】.
"That's what I told Rhett." JJ smiled. "So, is your journey going well? I heard from Rhett that you went back to New York."
"Yeah, everything is going well." After reading the text message, she pressed the delete button in a good mood, then started talking and looked at the child in JJ's arms, and then her eyes lit up, "JJ, your child is so cute!"
"Want to hug?" jj accepted the compliment with a smile and asked.
"Can I?"
"Of course." JJ smiled again as if to say how could you ask such a simple question, and then handed the child to Peng Ziqian.
"...He must be a beauty when he grows up~" Peng Ziqian took the child carefully. She had taken care of the child for a night thanks to Uncle Harold's blessing, so she was a little experienced, and carefully shook the sleeping child.
"..." The little doctor who just became a godfather next to him seemed a little frustrated because he couldn't get in the conversation, so he had to turn his attention to his godson. The more he looked at his godson's round face, the cuter he felt, and finally endured Can't stop stretching out his hand to poke the other party, who knows, after he stretched out his hand, the child opened his eyes, and then grabbed Rhett's finger with his small hand.
Rhett tugged lightly, but the baby was unwilling to let go, and he was afraid of making the baby cry with force, so he had to maintain this position awkwardly.
The author has something to say: so the word count in this chapter explodes...
I think these two pieces I wrote are like running accounts...
In the past two days, this guy has been forced to run naked every morning and become mentally weak... The quality of these two chapters has dropped sharply... I guess it will be fine when I slow down...
"1993? That was two years after Hannah disappeared." Peng Ziqian looked at the postcard Carter brought, and then at Carter.
