Chapter six hundred and seventy fourth headless case
He ran back to the door of the elevator almost like the wind. Matthew took a careful look in first. Seeing that the small elevator was as empty as before, he rushed over and pressed the elevator button. The elevator he had just taken was still parked on this floor, and the elevator door opened instantly.
But he stuck to the wall, waited for the elevator door to open, and glanced secretly, and confirmed that there was no one. Then he flashed into the elevator, pressed the first floor where the hotel lobby was located, and quickly closed the elevator.
The bright red letters on the black car body may be a prank or a revenge from the insider who was guilty of his crime, but it may also be that someone is so crazy that he wants to kill him.
Matthew cherishes his life very much and cherishes the glamorous life he is now. How many years have he enjoyed it?
Think about standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window of Horner Manor overlooking Beverly Hills, the forests were all over the eyes, how many trees he had knocked down?
Hiding on the side of the elevator, Matthew was vigilant and was very energetic. Although two or three people could not beat him at all, he knew very well that free fighting, unlimited fighting, Muay Thai or Kung Fu were all slags in front of hot weapons.
No matter how good your body is, you can't stop a bullet.
The elevator arrived at the first floor, and then opened with a jingle, and footsteps sounded.
Instead of going out immediately, Matthew was prepared to take action. In a small space like the elevator, even when facing a person with a gun, he had a certain ability to resist.
Just when his nerves were at its tightest point, an old man with a cane walked in, looked at Matthew with surprise, coughed a few times, and his whole body trembled, as if he might fall apart at any time.
After looking at the old man, Matthew smiled slightly, flashed out of the elevator, walked into the lobby, and saw several hotel security personnel, breathing a sigh of relief.
This is really a hell!
Matthew sighed when he thought of the bright red words on the Mercedes-Benz off-road vehicle, but did not relax his guard, and then came to the hotel lobby manager.
He has been to Four Seasons Hotel many times, and the lobby manager is also an acquaintance.
He quickly told the matter, and the lobby manager's face changed. He said sorry first, and then picked up the intercom and notified the security department.
Before the lobby manager could finish his words, the hotel door opened and two patrol officers walked in.
This is Beverly Hills, one of the most famous wealthy settlements in the United States. The Beverly City Police Department has invested a lot of patrol forces here. After receiving the call, patrol officers will arrive within five minutes.
If it were downtown Los Angeles, some would have waited.
Two patrolmen just found Matthew, and Brown Williams and his bodyguards rushed to the Four Seasons Hotel.
Only after Brown Williams and four bodyguards stood beside him did Matthew feel relaxed. He would rather think about the worst than take it seriously.
An alarm like this can be large or small.
It is no trivial if the person who calls the police is a celebrity and a rich man like Matthew.
Soon, an officer who specializes in handling such matters rushed over at the Beverly City Police Department.
"Hello, Mr. Horner."
In the underground parking lot, a middle-aged sheriff came to Matthew. Matthew reached out to hold him and said directly, "Sir Bernatti, we're meeting again."
Sheriff Bernatti had a hint of undetectable embarrassment in his smile and said, "I heard that the case is related to Mr. Horner, so I rushed over as soon as possible. We will find out as soon as possible."
Matthew's face turned a little dark, and he was deeply suspicious of the sheriff's ability. How many years have the underwear theft case in Horner Manor been in? The police have not solved the case yet, which is really speechless.
The Los Angeles police are really not very efficient.
"Sir Bernatti, as a resident of Beverly, I am very worried about the deterioration of Beverly's security." Matthew also expressed his dissatisfaction appropriately. "My manor theft case has not been solved yet, and now someone is openly threatening my personal safety!"
"I'm very sorry." Sheriff Bernatti was very good. "The police have never relaxed in pursuing theft in Horner Manor."
Matthew was too lazy to say anything else, and the underwear theft case has obviously become a headless case.
Helen Hermann also rushed over at this time. Matthew, accompanied by her, made a record for the police. In fact, there was nothing to say. After all, he found that the car was in a wrong state and ran away immediately.
Of course, in Matthew's view, he was not greedy for life and fear of death, but had self-knowledge.
In this country, it is really too easy to get a gun.
The police also asked him if he had made grudges with others recently, and of course Matthew's answer was no.
Speaking of which, there must be many people who have made grudges with him, but who would use such boring means?
After staying in the hotel for another half an hour, Matthew left. The Mercedes-Benz off-road vehicle was temporarily unable to drive. He got into Helen Herman's car directly. Brown Williams sat in the passenger seat, and the driver was replaced by Matthew's bodyguard.
Matthew didn't need anyone to remind him, so he strengthened his security level.
"Will this be related to the underwear theft case two years ago?" Helen Herman asked in confusion.
The car drove out of the underground parking lot. Matthew saw through the car windows and saw many entertainment reporters surrounding the front door of the Four Seasons Hotel. These guys were well-informed.
"Who knows?" Matthew shrugged, "The case that year has not been solved. It is possible that the thief of underwear is back."
He had a headache and said to the co-pilot, "Brown, we must also strengthen the security on the manor."
Brown Williams responded, "Okay."
Helen Hermann was still a little worried and reminded, "You should pay attention recently and don't run around if you have nothing to do."
"I know." Matthew still attaches great importance to it.
The phone rings, Helen Herman took out his cell phone to answer, talked to the person for a while, hung up the phone, looked at Matthew, and said, "The police retrieved the surveillance cameras in the underground parking lot of the hotel and found some clues."
Matthew raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who did it?"
Helen Hermann said calmly, "A male Latino, who is about thirty to forty years old, commits the crime at four o'clock in the morning."
"Latino?" Matthew frowned slightly.
"Supervisor Bernatti suspected to be a Mexican," Helen Herman continued. "The other party did not hide his face or avoid surveillance. After leaving the Four Seasons Hotel parking lot, he rode an unlicensed motorcycle to downtown Los Angeles."
She thought about it and said, "The other party should be targeting you specifically."
Matthew nodded slightly. There were many vehicles in the parking lot of Four Seasons Hotel. If it was for luxury cars, there was also a Rolls-Royce Phantom and a Ferrari near the Mercedes-Benz Off-Royce, which was far inferior to them.
Helen Hermann said again, "With surveillance video, the police will be able to check it out, and I will put pressure on them."
"You pay more attention to this matter," Matthew thought for a while and said, "There is also the theft of Horner Manor."
The car drove towards Horner Manor and sent him home directly.
When Matthew returned home, he called the crew and turned down his job today, but he was not idle at home. There was Brown Williams' regulation in terms of security, so he didn't have to worry too much.
Saying Helen Herman away, Matthew turned on the computer and checked the latest information on the email. There was a lot of information about the hero Duke. The crew just came here yesterday.
He has signed a contract with the crew for a few days. Apart from a general understanding, he has not specifically studied related roles and background information.
It's not too far from the start of the shooting, so Matthew temporarily puts Christopher Nolan aside and has been focusing on this project since the signing of the contract.
Even this kind of pure popcorn commercial movie requires a lot of preparation work.
A bodybuilding and strong figure is a must, and certain military literacy is also a must-have. Basic movement training is also a must-have item.
Fortunately, these are not difficult for Matthew. He has acted in a large number of military-related films before and is very familiar with guns, and action scenes are no problem.
In comparison, the background information is a bit unfamiliar.
When he lived across the Pacific Ocean, Matthew also watched this series of cartoons, but at that time he was just watching the fun, and he was far less memorable than the Transformers.
The characters who left his impression through cartoons are Duke and Flint.
Of course, there are also Commander Cobra and Bald Distro.
I basically didn't remember anything else.
In this movie, he plays the role of Duke, one of the most important leaders of the Special Forces, also known as Duke.
During this day, Matthew was basically reading the relevant emails sent by the crew, especially the part about the Duke.
Many people may wonder whether he is the leader of the special forces?
In special forces, the concept of military rank is "hidden". The ranks of members who came from the original troops were retained, but during training and operation, their ranks, including their names, will not appear on the uniforms. Once they join the special forces, whoever listens to whom must look at the specific positions assigned to the special forces. Past experiences do not count, and the team members call code names instead of "supervisor, corporal" and so on.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the Duke's rank of "sergeant" can lead the lieutenant-level teammates in the team.
In the settings of comics and Hasbro, the Duke and Flint have the same status. Above them is General Hawk, and under them, the upper and lower levels of the team members will be adjusted according to the nature of the specific task and the situation of the specific personnel.
