Los Angeles Detective

Monday morning.

Robbery Murder Division.

As soon as Luke walked into the office, Marcus leaned over and squeezed his dark eyelids, "Hey, man, how was last night?"

"The dinner was good, the night view was beautiful, and we had a good chat."

"Come on, do you understand what I mean?" Marcus made a motion of leaning forward.

Luke smiled, "Don't engage in one-night stands, maybe one day you will fall."

Matthew said, "Friendly reminder, you should get tested for HIV."

"Hey... I know you guys are jealous, I understand, you can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour, huh." Marcus grinned, "I have protective measures."

The vice-team said, "Infectious diseases are not limited to HIV, so please be lucky."

"Oh... I admit that I was a little scared. I must go to the bar to have a few more drinks tonight to suppress my shock." Marcus made a gesture of swaying on the dance floor.

The deputy team shook his head, "Don't pay attention to him, this guy is hopeless, and sooner or later he will fall on a woman."

Yesterday Luke had a day off and asked, "Any new developments in the investigation into the Taser robbery?"

The deputy team said, "Yesterday we checked the phone number under Tony's name, and the phone card stopped working and we couldn't locate it. This further increases the suspicion of Tony committing the crime. The main task now is to find Tony."

Luke continued, "How's Tony doing financially?"

Matthew replied, "Tony doesn't have a proper job and has been receiving relief money. The financial situation is not very good. The house he lives in is also rented. There is no credit card consumption record."

Marcus said, "People like Tony usually prefer cash transactions, and it is difficult to lock their location through credit card purchases. I have asked friends from the gang to help find them."

"Crack..." The door of the captain's office opened, and David walked out of the office, waving at Luke, "Alarm clock, there is a task."

"You really deserve a beating."

"Each each other."

The two left the police station. Luke got into the co-pilot first, and David sighed and got into the cab.

"What mission?"

"Harry found a clue about Tony and wants to report it to us in person." David started the car, and when he was about to drive, Luke handed him an envelope, "What?"

"I lent you 3,000 U.S. dollars at the end of last year, and now I will repay you 3,200 U.S. dollars with interest."

David was a little surprised, opened the envelope and took a look, "Did you rob a bank yesterday on vacation?"

Luke smiled, "Yes, this is your hush money."

David put the envelope in his underwear pocket, "Call me next time."

"I will think about it."

David also smiled, "I didn't expect you to pay back the money, it's a surprise."

"Knowing that I may not pay back the money, you still borrow it?" Luke secretly asked, are you stupid?

According to the personality of the original owner of the body, it is really possible not to pay back the money, not because he deliberately reneged on the debt, but because he did not have easy money.

David looked complicated, "I've seen some policemen go astray because of lack of money. It's easy for lapd to exchange the power in his hands for money, but this is a road of no return. If you need money, you can still find me. "

"I don't see that you care about me."

"You think too much, I just don't want to be shot in the back one day."

"Ha ha……"

Luke smiles, that's what David looks like.

The car drove near Tony's home community. David parked the car at the entrance of an alley. A man quickly got into the back of the car. It was Harry, David's new informant.

David cut to the chase, "Have you found Tony's whereabouts?"

Harry said, "I used all my contacts to find Tony, but I didn't find his hiding place. I can be sure that he is not hiding nearby."

David turned his head and said, "This is not enough. If you want to be free, you must exchange valuable clues. If it's just a perfunctory job, I don't mind putting the handcuffs on you again."

"Hey, relax. Although I didn't find Tony, I found his best friend. These two people often get mixed up. No one knows Tony's situation better than him. If you want to know anything, you can ask him directly."

"What's his name and where does he live?"

"We call him William. He's a homeless man. His tent is in the alley in front of him. He's a white man with a beard and only four fingers on his right hand, so he's easy to identify." Harry paused, and continued,

"I believe that he should have what you want to know, let's settle the matter."

David said, "No, you have to help us find Tony."

"I want to help you too, but I only hang around here and I am only familiar with the surrounding situation. What I can guarantee is that if Tony runs back, I will tell you as soon as possible. But if he runs to other places, there is nothing I can do .”

David stared at the other party for a while, "If you help me find someone again, it will be settled."

"I knew it, I knew you wouldn't let me go so easily..." Harry complained a few words, but he also knew that complaining was futile, so he said helplessly, "OK, I can help you, but this is the last time. "

"But the premise is that you must find the other party."

"who?"

"Lindsay Hals."

"A drug addict?"

"Yes."

"What did she do?"

"None of your business, I want her address."

"Find her, let's settle the matter."

"Waiting for your message."

"OK, you are the boss." Harry finished and got out of the car.

Luke said, "Are you doing self-serving public affairs?"

"Are you going to report me?"

"Even if you report it, it won't be because of this kind of shit. I want to save face."

David smiled, and drove the car forward a few hundred meters, blocking the entrance of another alley. Looking inside, there was indeed a blue tent.

The two got out of the car one after the other and walked into the alley. Luke called out, "Hey, William, a friend is here."

After a while, the tent was opened from the inside, and an unkempt man poked his head out, "Who are you? I don't know you."

"We're friends with Tony."

"I've known Tony for almost ten years, and I haven't seen him have any other friends except me."

"It seems that we have found the right person." Luke flashed his police badge, "lapd."

"Sir, I know you don't like me, but I haven't done anything criminal."

"You don't, but your friend does." Luke handed him a cigarette. "We're looking for Tony."

William picked up the cigarette and put it under his nose to smell it, "We haven't seen each other for a while, what's wrong with him?"

Luke asked, "When was the last time you saw each other?"

"I can't remember the exact time, but it's been at least half a month. Did something happen to him?"

"A period of time before you parted, was there anything unusual about him?"

William thought for a while, "It seems...at that time he was a little nervous, and his mood was a little bit wrong, and he always avoided seeing him for a drink.

Then, he suddenly disappeared. "

"Tony has been missing for so long, as your only friend, why didn't you call the police?"

"Tony doesn't like the police, sorry sir, no offense intended.

But from what I knew of Tony, if I called the police he would not only be unappreciative, but would probably cut me off. "

"Why?"
