This situation is consistent with what Robert said.
The possibility that this man simply looked like his comrade was much smaller.
When he saw another photo, Luke knew he had found the right person.
It was a photo of the male host wearing formal military uniform and a middle-aged white man. It seemed to be a relatively formal occasion.
There are only two people in the photo, but the thing they are holding in their hands is particularly eye-catching.
That's a badge of honor!
Luke took a look at the style of the medal and confirmed that it was something from the military system, and the middle-aged white man also looked familiar.
He thought about it for a moment and roughly remembered who this person was.
He took out his phone and searched for a while, comparing the single photo with the middle-aged and elderly person in the group photo. He murmured, "This guy seems to be doing better than Robert! Did the Minister of Defense personally give him a medal?"
After taking all the photos and walking around the house, he left.
Now Luke was absolutely sure that no one had been in the room for a long time, at least one or two months.
A pile of notices or advertisements were stuffed at the door, the earliest date of which was the day after Robert, his old comrade, was admitted to the hospital.
As Luke drove, he couldn't help but mutter, "Frank Custer, where have you been?"
This should be the real name of Robert's old comrade, at least the male owner of the house used this name.
Back in the lab, he gave all the photos of Frank Custer's family to Sponge to find their whereabouts.
A moment later, he got the result.
Looking at these three medical records still from the Metropolitan General Hospital and the police station's file records, Luke was 100% sure that there was something wrong.
Frank Custer and his family were rushed to Metropolitan Hospital for emergency treatment on the night of the shooting.
All four members of this family suffered gunshot wounds, and the time of emergency treatment recorded in their medical records was very close.
This proves that they were most likely attacked while together.
But in the hospital and police files, Frank Custer was only recorded as "Anonymous", and his wife and children who were injured with him were not mentioned at all.
This situation is extremely abnormal.
In a major shooting case like this with multiple casualties, the relationships of the victims must of course be investigated clearly and recorded as clues for future investigation.
Such ambiguity is most likely due to someone tampering with the hospital and police files and erasing a lot of necessary information.
Luke narrowed his eyes, looking at the simple and crude police case report on the virtual light screen, as well as the glaring "Anonymous", and couldn't help but sigh.
Robert had said himself that he wanted to know how his old friend was doing and would try to help if he had any problems.
Luke didn't want to give Robert an answer of "the whole family died and I am missing", which would definitely make people unhappy.
He just hoped that this Frank was still alive.
That way he could reply to Robert.
Now, Luke had one more thing to pay attention to.
But there is no rush for this.
In New York, an international metropolis with millions of people, it really takes a lot of luck to find someone who has disappeared for more than a year.
Compared to ordinary people, Luke can use his identity as a detective to look into various cases and information and look for clues.
In addition, he also has a polyhedron intelligence system.
The titanium phone has more than 100,000 users in New York, most of whom are loyal users of f2f.
Maybe one day, traces of Frank Custer will appear in the photos and videos they upload.
One main person and one auxiliary person is the most reliable solution Luke can think of.
In the evening, Luke and Selina went to the Margarita Bar again.
Today Wade informed them that they could go get the information.
This time, Wade was waiting at the bar in advance, and was talking to the bartender Viso.
When Luke and the other sat at the bar, the bartender brought two bottles of Coke and said with a smile, "Freebies."
Luke laughed, took out two bills from his pocket and threw them into the glass jar: "Business is business, I am a man of rules."
Wei Suo was stunned for a moment and said nothing more.
He didn't know why, but he always felt a little uneasy when he heard Luke's words.
Wade didn't waste any time. He just took out the information and pushed it in front of Luke.
Luke: “How much?”
Wade raised his hand and pointed a finger without hesitation.
Luke pulled a brown paper bag out of his backpack and pushed it across the bar toward him: “Order yourself.”
As he said this, he opened the document and after taking a look at it twice, he couldn't help but chuckle.
Wade was busy counting money and didn't pay much attention.
Weisuo, who was standing by, asked casually, "Why, did you find someone interesting?"
Luke: “Yeah, it’s really interesting.”
The last name on the list Wade gave was Darius Kinkaid.
Wade probably doesn't know that Luke not only knows Kincaid, but also left him a contact number last time.
Old guy Kincaid left a message for Luke some time ago, saying that Sonya was pregnant and they were waiting to welcome the new life.
Luke didn't think that this old man in his forties would abandon his pregnant wife and come to New York to cause trouble for the masked "vigilantes".
Besides, Kincaid never took this kind of job.
Laughing in his heart, he looked at Wade: "Is the deal done?"
Wade also finished counting the money, put the brown paper bag in front of his chest, and nodded with a smile on his face: "OK. Visso, give me a dry martini."
It's so easy to make money from rich people! Feeling the thick stack of money on his chest, he felt very happy.
Luke picked up the Coke and took a sip: "Visuo, now let's talk about the problem with the last transaction."
Wiseau and Wade were both stunned: "Huh?"
Luke took out Weisuo's file from his backpack and pushed it back: "Take a look first."
Weisuo hesitated for a moment, but still took it back, opened it and started reading.
Wade also leaned over curiously, and within two seconds, he exclaimed, "What the hell is this?"
On that killer file, several people were stamped with a red "cannot be found" stamp.
Luke and Selina just stood there quietly, drinking Coke and admiring the expressions of the two wretched guys next to them.
Weisuo only read a few pages before turning to the list of killers at the top, on which more than twenty names were crossed out with a red pen.
He looked at Luke: "You, what do you mean?"
Luke said leisurely, "I said before that I am a man of rules. So if you want 20,000, I will give you 20,000. I asked you if there was any problem with the information, and you said you would never cheat anyone. Now the goods are not what you said, what do you think you should do?"
Weisuo frowned. "The transaction is complete. No refunds will be given. If there are any problems, you should have raised them when you got the information. If you think there are any problems, don't buy it."
