Chapter 314
“After that, we found more clues. Laura is a staff member of a certain charity foundation under the name of Mayor James. The two were even caught together by TV. “Beckett’s eyes flashed with jumping sparks, and she was very excited.
Ling Xiao took out a glass of ice water and put it in front of Beckett. The jar of iced cola just now didn’t know when she had drunk it.
“With these things alone, I am afraid that it is difficult to believe that Mayor James was the one who killed Laura.” Ling Xiao slightly shook the head, reminding: “You still need a certain motivation, time and As a murder weapon, you can’t even apply for a search warrant based on guesswork.”
“Of course we know this, so we did a more in-depth investigation.” Beckett lifts the head and looked at Ling Xiao quickly. Panting, and said at the same time: “Do you know what we found at that charity foundation? At that foundation, nearly 2300,000 USD was secretly misappropriated. And Laura was discovered to copy these confidential documents , And was fired. At the same time, City Attorney General’s Office also confirmed that Mayor James was one of the suspects in this investigation. This is the motive.”
Ling Xiao tapped lightly The coffee table in front of him, awhile later, he said, “There are several charity foundations under the name of Mayor James. This charity foundation has been misappropriated by 2300,000 yuan. What about other Foundations? How much have they misappropriated? The investigation started, like a snowball, and it became more and more uncontrollable. This motive plus the indirect evidence before it is enough for you to conduct a positive investigation of Mayor James.”
“That’s it. , Yes.” Beckett nodded and said, “We can be sure that a certain employee in the city hall is calling phone sex. When I accidentally said something, it happened to be heard by Laura, and this She went to work at the charity foundation and investigated secretly.”
“Not enough.” Ling Xiao suddenly felt that all this was too coincidental. He stared at Beckett and said, “You want to do this. In the iron case, we must find out the staff member and find more practical evidence.”
“If you want more evidence, you need a deeper investigation, and you need to do more with the city hall. “Beckett nodded and said, “Detective Montgomery also has this opinion. He suggested that I go directly to Mayor, or Mayor agrees to us to investigate, or we go to apply for a search warrant and publish everything in the media.”
“Needless to say, Mayor will definitely answer At your request, otherwise, once these things are announced in the media, his election this year will be completely ruined. “Ling Xiao sighed slightly, then looked at Beckett and said: “So next, have you found the staff of that city hall, also charity foundation funds movement evidence, the method of killing, this whole set of evidence chain Only when it takes shape will you be able to convict him thoroughly. “
“I know, but I don’t know that Mayor James did too much of these things. We didn’t find these things either, except that the fibers on his clothes are indeed the same as those in Laura’s mouth. Besides, we found nothing else. “
Beckett suddenly hesitated and said: “Ling, I always feel that this murder case was probably not done by Mayor James. I have contacted him and he was very frank in this matter. He was also very cooperative, and on the night Laura was killed, he had clear alibi, so the person was impossible to kill by himself. Even if it is to be done, people like him will find a full-time assassin, but the problem is again Come out, how could he find the fibers of his clothes in Laura’s mouth. “
“So you suspect that this matter was planted on him. “Ling Xiao nodded, laughed, and said, “Actually, I have the same idea. This incident is too coincidental in many places.” Inside the city hall, all those who have access to funds are high-level figures. How can people like them call phone sex, and how can they call Laura’s phone? And Laura is stubborn. Yes, people who want to reflect social injustices, people like her will not worry about being bought by others the least, and her killing will arouse public sympathy. “
“Yes, that’s how it is. “Beckett took a deep breath, lifts the head, looking at Ling Xiao, said solemnly: “I always feel that something is not quite right. I feel that every step I take is being led by someone’s nose, so speaking of which Mayor James is true. It’s probably planted by others. “
“Not necessarily. “Ling Xiao slightly shook the head, said: “Perhaps he was planted in the murder case, but the embezzlement of funds is very likely to be true. It is the cause of the whole thing. It is because of this matter, no one else started to set up a bureau. One must know that a case of embezzlement of funds will at most make James resign and step down, but the murder case is likely to put him in jail. “
“That’s not right. “Beckett disagrees with Ling Xiao’s judgment. She shook the head and said, “If the embezzlement case really exists, why should those people kill Laura and let Mayor James do it? Wouldn’t it be better? Realize his crime. “
“That’s why you need more evidence and a more serious and detailed investigation. “Ling Xiao sat down opposite Beckett, looked at her, and asked directly: “So, Katherine, what do you plan to do next?” “
“What do I plan to do next?” “Beckett’s eyes suddenly flashed in confusion. She was faintly sighed and said: “Ling, you know how much I want to bring him to justice, but I am worried that he was wronged in this matter. The conscience of the police tells myself that I must handle the case impartially and not mix any personal feelings. Ling, I…”
For a while, Beckett didn’t know what oneself should say. She has always been capable of style, but at this time she showed a rare weakness.
“oh!” Ling Xiao slightly shook the head, Mayor James is by no means a good person. If he is allowed to easily get out of this matter, Beckett is absolutely unwilling, but let her know that this is an unjust, false and wrongful case. But insisting on doing it is against his life rules.
“Everything depends on the evidence. “Ling Xiao took a deep breath and said, “Don’t worry about the murder case. You should keep an eye on the fund embezzlement case. According to the detail of the case, you decide what oneself will do.” “
“What does this mean? “Beckett frowned, Ling Xiao had better confused her instead, and hurriedly asked: “Aren’t you talking about the embezzlement case, you can only get him to step down at most? Why should you stare at this? “
“Hehe, you are a fan of the authorities, Katherine! “Ling Xiao slightly shook the head, laughed, and said: “Now you have four choices. The first is to ignore the problems that may arise. According to the clues at hand, one check one, two check two, never You don’t care if James is wronged by doing extra moves. Of course, I know that you definitely don’t want this. “
Looking at Beckett’s grotesque expression, Ling Xiao stopped talking and said, “The second option is to find out the truth and investigate every problem in the entire case.” clear. Regardless of whether someone did the frame, he must admit that he did it, but he did not do it, you have to check it out, and you can’t let him carry the black pot. Starting from the case of embezzlement of funds, once this is cleared up, the murder case can also be cleared. “
Ling Xiao looked at Beckett’s somewhat moved expression, Ling Xiao looked solemnly, said solemnly: “The third option is to procrastinate. Since there are questions about the matter, check it out and spend more time and effort. Mayor James check it out. Didn’t you always want to know what happened back then? Now I take this opportunity to find some clues. As for this case, we neither wronged him nor helped him to check it out. If one day is a day, and it takes a little longer, naturally someone will stab the matter to the media. When the time comes, even if the two cases are inconclusive , James, let alone running for president, he can’t do it even with this Mayor. “
“This one? “Beckett suddenly started to hesitate. Doing so would not violate his principles of life, would not wrong him, but would also allow him to learn the lessons he deserves. It looks good, but I don’t know why. Comfortable.
“Fourth choice. “Ling Xiao looked at Beckett, narrowed his eyes, and said in a low voice: “That is, no matter what the truth of the matter is, you must find a way to prove Mayor James’ innocence, and at least work in this direction. “
Beckett in this sentence of Ling Xiao was stunned, she couldn’t believe what oneself heard!
Ling Xiao took out a glass of ice water and put it in front of Beckett. The jar of iced cola just now didn’t know when she had drunk it.
