Luke nodded in his heart.
He had previously felt that the pattern of bullet distribution did not seem like the result of two guns firing.
Now Martin's more detailed analysis confirmed this, and at the same time, he became more interested in the top-level gunman: "So, Agent Palmer, what intelligence do you have?"
Palmer is not from the Los Angeles Police Department, she is an agent of the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration).
The reason she appeared here was because one of the dead was her partner, fellow DEA agent Jimmy Walton.
Palmer: "In short, Jimmy came to negotiate with the deceased Ferrami. The deceased has important intelligence in his hands, and we need it."
At this point, looking at Luke's expression, she added helplessly: "I can't tell you who it is specifically, I can only tell you that the person involved in this information is very troublesome, so Jimmy came. I should have come too, but I encountered another matter at the last minute, which delayed me for half an hour and I couldn't come with you."
Luke suddenly asked, "Do you suspect that someone leaked the information about this meeting?"
Palmer said nothing, but his expression said it all.
Luke knew the difficulty of this case.
The DEA had intelligence but was unwilling to disclose it for confidentiality reasons, so Martin and his team were unable to obtain a target.
Getting Palmer to say it? That's too hard.
One is because of the merit, and the other is because of the insider.
If the Los Angeles Police Department gets involved, they will have to share some of the credit, which is definitely not a good thing for the DEA.
They all lost an agent, and now they have to divide the credit. It's heartbreaking to think about it.
Secondly, this involves an insider, and the DEA certainly doesn't want the family's dirty laundry to be exposed to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Luke thought for a moment: "What about the survivor? Who is he?"
Roger: "He is a lawyer, the one that the deceased Femira brought to negotiate with us. He is just an ordinary guy, not very capable. We found him yesterday, but he said he knew nothing and he was just here to help negotiate the terms."
Luke was surprised: "Isn't he afraid of being silenced?"
Roger: "He said that if the deal was successful, he would only charge 50,000 US dollars. He knew nothing about the real situation, otherwise he would not have taken the case."
Luke could only shake his head. Although clues could still be found, it was obvious that there were almost no clues left.
The lawyer may not know nothing, but detaining a lawyer? This is really a pain in the ass.
These guys make a living by playing with the law. If the police station is caught by them for the slightest mistake, they may have to pay compensation for mental damages.
As long as they can make money, these people don't care about their reputation.
In major cities across the United States, there are many large outdoor advertisements that feature two men in suits and a string of easy-to-remember phone numbers, such as 888-8888 in New York.
Don't get me wrong, these two are not computer sellers, nor are they spokespersons for mobile phone company package advertisements. Instead, they are personal injury lawyers who specialize in helping people file lawsuits and seek compensation from various companies and government public departments.
This type of lawyer generally does not charge any fees upfront, but instead directly takes 30% of the compensation received by the plaintiff.
Therefore, this shows how difficult American lawyers are.
The two parties negotiated there for a while, and in the end Roger and the other man continued to follow the lawyer. Luke didn't want to follow this guy, even though he might be the next person to die.
But in his heart, he has put the case aside for the time being.
What cases are the most difficult to handle? In addition to unsolved cases, there are also internal issues.
If they find out the traitor in the DEA, do they still have to wait for others to give them certificates of honor
Obviously, although the dea smiled in front of you, it is more likely that he was saying MMP in his heart. In short, he would not be very happy.
Luke simply reminded Martin: "Go check on the shooter. A shooter of this level is definitely not a small character. Look for shooters of similar level in the case database. Maybe there will be clues, or at least a few possible directions."
He said this, of course, because Martin was a retired Marine and a crack marksman.
There are only so many truly top shooters in the circle. Even if a gifted guy suddenly appears, unless it is his first time shooting, he will always leave some clues in the circle.
Martin nodded, and the men said goodbye.
When Luke said goodbye to Roger for the last time, he looked at the man and woman who were walking and talking over there, and lowered his voice: "What's going on with them?"
Roger: "They just fell in love. Now, the main thing is that the agent fell in love with my partner."
"Oh, we've confirmed through eye contact, this is the right person, right?" Luke teased with a smile and waved goodbye to Roger.
He got in the car and started it. After driving for a while, he glanced at Selina beside him and asked, "Why are you staring at me?"
Selina: "You seem to rarely look me in the eye."
Luke rolled his eyes at her: "Is that so?"
Selina responded with a bigger eye roll: "Yes, thank you so much, I feel much better now."
The topic was over.
The two knew very well that the relationship between them was of a different nature from that between Luke's female friends.
As long as he wanted to, and spent a little time, he could invite some female police officers in the police station for a drink after get off work, and it wouldn't be difficult for something to happen, and he would have basically no worries.
Female police officers are as busy as male police officers and have the same physical needs. They will not ask for love and marriage overnight.
Therefore, Luke just goes with the flow when it comes to women and is too lazy to spend time on any subtle thoughts.
It is rare to have a partner with whom you can get along well and trust completely.
Like during the Zhongfu Building robbery, Detective John also risked his life for his wife and daughter.
But the fact is that his wife and daughter have been separated from him for a long time, and divorce is inevitable.
What’s even more frustrating is that this is not because of money issues, it’s simply because the two people have different philosophies on life.
A detective's partner is much more particular than an ordinary person's wife. It is not uncommon for partners to quarrel with each other and eventually seek help from their superiors to break up.
Marrying the wrong wife may be a waste of time and money.
If you choose the wrong partner, you may lose your life, or you may be sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for investigation and lose your job.
The two went to a professional shooting range and chose a secluded corner. Selina practiced honestly while Luke began to practice quick draw and rapid shooting.
Luke had read a lot of information on quick-draw and rapid-fire, and many of the opponents he had killed had practiced it before, but it was only included in the basic firearm capabilities and not listed separately.
Luke guessed that these people's quick-draw and rapid-fire skills were not yet qualified to form a separate ability.
It’s like most people haven’t formed basic language skills, their level is not high enough, and the system simply doesn’t recognize it.
Go directly to the fast-draw and rapid-shooting master, Bob Munden, and obtain his abilities
Luke thought about it and let it go.
His physical fitness is sufficient, but he lacks enough practice in quick-draw and rapid-shooting.
