The FBI is actually a kind of police. Compared with regional police such as the LAPD and NYPD, it has a higher level and more power. It is the highest-level investigative law enforcement agency, but it is also a member of the country's intelligence system.

However, not all agents of the Bureau of Investigation have the opportunity to be involved in intelligence work or special agent tasks. Generally speaking, ordinary agents still bear the responsibility of the national police, with jurisdiction over more than two hundred types of criminal activities.

The scope of rights is quite large and any case can be taken over. Specifically, different departments will of course have different main directions.

When Zhou Yu came to the branch again, he also met the members of his temporary team. The three young intern investigators did not directly assemble a team to cooperate with Zhou Yu's actions.

The branch actually sent three people to help him, but it was said that they paid attention to it, but it was three young interns who didn't know what they could do. They gave him a small separate office, which he should have given anyway.

But no additional support was given. It looked like they simply sent three interns to play with Zhou Yu.

This situation is actually quite normal. Specific cases are taken over by specific people, and there are many detectives sitting in the big office handling piles of subsequent cases. They are not much different from normal police officers.

There are three trainees, two men and one woman. Like Zhou Yu, they are all small characters with nothing special. The eldest man, Jamie, should be close to thirty years old. He has just become a trainee agent for less than a year. He was once a

A regional police officer passed the FBI exam and successfully transferred to another position, so he can be considered to have experience in handling cases.

But the other two are pure newcomers. They entered the Federal Investigation Academy even later than Zhou Yu went to participate in training before. They are pure newcomers who were assigned to the Los Angeles branch, Dole and Fanny.

But being able to become trainee agents means that even though they are young, these two people have passed all FBI training and assessments, and there will not be any big problems.

Seeing these three teammates who were cooperating with him, Zhou Yu also briefly introduced himself, then told the three people about the case, and also had a brief communication about the case.

The three of them were very serious about this case and had been listening to Zhou Yu introduce relevant information to them. However, Zhou Yu did not get much information, and there were many uncertainties in the information. The only clue was the person named Stella.

·Bridger's Woman.

After briefly explaining the situation, Zhou Yu also began to paint a picture, telling the three of them that if they could cooperate with him to solve this case, the internship label on their heads might be removed immediately.

Then Zhou Yu began to assign tasks: "Jamie, you used to be a local policeman and you should have some connections. I need you to investigate the gold nuggets. These stolen gold nuggets all have the names of Balinese dancers printed on them."

Pattern, use your connections to investigate but try to keep a low profile."

Jamie nodded: "Leave it to me."

"Fanny, go find all Stella Bridger's information, including her email records, phone communication records, bank consumption, social relations, and current location. I need to know everything that can be investigated now.

.”

"Good head."

Zhou Yu looked at the last person: "Dole, if you cooperate with Jamie, the time is tight and the task is heavy. Maybe if our actions are taken overnight, the 35 million US dollars of gold nuggets will be far away from us."

"OK."

Zhou Yu still focused his main breakthrough direction on the daughter of the dead thief king. After all, this was the only clue he could determine. No matter what, he would definitely make great efforts to investigate in this direction first.

When the investigation began, Jamie left with Dole, while Zhou Yu stayed behind and investigated all the information about Stella Bridger with Fanny.

With the support of the Intelligence System of the Investigation Bureau, it was not difficult to investigate all the information about Stella Bridger. Soon Zhou Yu obtained a lot of information about Stella Bridger.

Stella Bridger is a safe expert who is good at cracking all kinds of safes. In addition to working in a company that sells safes and combination locks, she is also a legal locksmith who has cooperated with the Philadelphia police. She has not committed any crimes.

However, after taking leave a few days ago, his whereabouts were unknown. He owned a red BMW Mini, and his license plate number, phone number, and email address were all found.

After confirming that this woman was a top lock-picking expert, Zhou Yu felt that he was on the right track and immediately began to investigate the current traces of Stella Bridger, especially since he could not finally confirm what Stella Bridger was using.

After the phone call, Zhou Yu became even more sure of this point.

Generally speaking, few people will change their phones, because this will bring some inconveniences to the users' lives, but the most important thing is a habit. If someone suddenly changes their phone number and does not have a new one,

If the number is updated, it can only mean one problem, that is, it has encountered a major change.

Fanny looked at the information on the screen: "Head, Stella Bridger should have changed to an anonymous disposable phone. There is no update of her phone number in the database. There must be something wrong here."

Zhou Yu said: "Check her license plate, make sure her car is still in Philadelphia, and see if she has any plans to come to Los Angeles."

"Now that I know the beginning, I'll start now."

Zhou Yu directly entered the Bureau's internal network again and began to conduct more investigations. What he wanted to check now was whether Stella Bridger had check-in information at the Los Angeles hotel.

Fanny has been checking for a long time but has not found any results, so the only possibility is that Stella Bridger's little red BMW has either been hidden or has a different license plate and cannot be traced.

But now both people and cars can become the direction of Zhou Yu's investigation, and there are slightly more clues than before.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is how investigating cases happen. It is common for investigators to find clues that cannot be continued. Some cautious people will change their license plates and use false identities when checking into hotels.

Or simply stay in hotels where you don't need to show your identity, because only in this way can you hide yourself better.

In this case, it would be very difficult to search in many directions. Zhou Yu could not find matching information on the hotel check-in information, so it can be said that he found nothing.

"Fanny, let's put the car thing aside for now. Come with me and continue investigating to see if we can find Stella Bridger's hotel check-in information. She has no criminal record and shouldn't need to deliberately hide her identity."

Fanny nodded: "Don't overdo it. This is simply looking for a needle in a haystack. It may be difficult to find such a person among so many people in Los Angeles."

"It's difficult to do it." Zhou Yu picked up his coat and stood up, saying: "Notify me as soon as you find any clues."

"Got it."

Los Angeles is very big, and the famous Hollywood is located in this city. To be honest, it is not easy to find a person who deliberately hides himself in such a big city, but there are only these few clues now, even if

There is no way to find a needle in a haystack.

After several days of investigation, they still found nothing. Jamie and Dole were also looking for news about the Balinese dancer's gold like headless flies, while Zhou Yu and Fanny continued to look for traces of Stella Bridger.

The emperor paid off. That day, Fanny took the phone and called the Yellow Pages one after another. Suddenly she jumped up from her chair with excitement. This female agent with a boyish personality almost danced with joy.

"Head, we found it! It's in Hollywood!"

Zhou Yu stopped what he was doing: "Are you sure?"

"Sure."

"Let's go." Zhou Yu took his coat and left with Fanny. Fanny kept talking beside Zhou Yu: "I finally found it after making hundreds of phone calls. It turns out that finding a needle in a haystack is really possible.

"

"Thanks for your hard work."

Zhou Yu smiled and patted Fanny on the shoulder, and took Fanny to get into the Porsche that had been parked for a long time for maintenance, and rushed towards the hotel that Fanny had investigated.

In the car, Zhou Yu asked: "How did you find it? She checked in under a false name?"

Fanny was a little excited: "It's a pseudonym, but after I confirmed it with the front desk, they said there seems to be a person who looks like this and drives a red BMW Mini. Although the license plate is different, there is a person who looks similar and drives the same car."

The outsiders might be the targets we are looking for."

"here you go."

The two soon arrived at the hotel where Stella Bridger was suspected to be staying.

Parking the car directly in front of the hotel, Zhou Yu took Fanny directly into the hotel.

A few minutes later, Zhou Yu and Fanny appeared in the manager's office. When they showed their IDs, the hotel cooperated very well and found the information of the check-in personnel and handed it to Zhou Yu.

While Zhou Yu was looking at the check-in information, Fanny also took out Stella Bridger's photo and handed it to the hotel manager: "Is this the person?"

The hotel manager took a look at the photo and nodded quickly: "Yes, that's right, it's her. She rented two rooms with a man and drove a red Mini."

Zhou Yu raised his head and looked at the other party: "Thank you for your cooperation. I hope to open a room next to this lady."

"No problem, I'll make arrangements for you right away."

Zhou Yu said to Fanny: "Fanny, tell them to come over and bring the necessary equipment."

"clear."

Fanny picked up the phone and quickly called Jamie, who was a little excited when she learned that the target had been found. It was always a good thing not to have to run around like a headless fly. As for the equipment, it was even simpler.

The Bureau of Investigation has a variety of surveillance equipment, and it is extremely simple for them as Bureau agents to apply for the use of these equipment.

Zhou Yu said to the hotel manager: "Tell me about these two people."

The hotel manager recalled carefully: "I have only seen these two people a few times, but they don't look like a couple. They have been staying here for more than a week. They often leave early and come back late, but they

A lot of luggage looks very heavy, that’s all I know.”

"Thank you for your help." Zhou Yu stood up and stretched out his hand towards the other party, saying: "We will try not to have any impact on your business, and we will not take any forceful actions in your hotel. What will you do next?

All we have to do is keep everything normal, okay."

The hotel manager quickly stood up and shook hands with Zhou Yu: "No problem, we have seen this kind of thing a lot."

It didn't take long for Zhou Yu to arrive at room 4206. According to the hotel manager, the room next to it was where Stella Bridger lived.

As soon as he entered the room, Zhou Yu took Fanny to check the entire room and made sure that there were no problems before starting preparations.

Almost two hours passed before Jamie and Dole came upstairs carrying two large disguised suitcases. After looking around for confirmation, they knocked on the door and entered the room.

As soon as the equipment arrived, the four people immediately started to install it. The computers they brought were also connected to the hotel's internal network, and under Zhou Yu's operation, they were directly connected to all the hotel's monitoring systems.

Dole and Jamie also disguised themselves as hotel employees. There was no way Zhou Yu, as the leader, had to take charge of the overall situation and keep an eye on the surveillance situation, so it could only make these two people more tired.

Everything seemed to be normal for several days. Dole and Jamie also confirmed and recorded the appearance of the man who appeared with Stella Bridger from the hall. After passing it to Zhou Yu, they immediately found the man's appearance through analysis.

material.

Charlie Crocker is a seasoned thief with a solid criminal record, but he started petty theft in his youth. No new criminal record has appeared in recent years. He went to Venice a year ago and his whereabouts are unknown. From the looks of it, he is.

If he is arrested, he will be released quickly without any arrest warrant.

As Zhou Yu's team monitored the two, three other people also emerged. A man nicknamed Handsome Guy Rob had a record of being arrested many times because he often raced.

A black man with no criminal record but a medical record showing that he is deaf in his right ear is nicknamed "Left Ear". According to the data, this guy has good explosives skills.

The last one is Lyle, an information technology graduate who also has no criminal record. It goes without saying that he must be the computer support of this team.

Coupled with Charlie Crocker, a seasoned thief, and Stella Bridger, an expert lockpicker, this is really a well-equipped gang to commit crimes.

Continuous surveillance, tracking and monitoring, Zhou Yu also learned about their target from the mouths of these people. A guy named Steve, who was originally a member of their team, also got involved because of the 35 million US dollars in gold.

After betraying everyone else, Stella and others' goal this time is to steal the gold back from that guy.

The location of the gold has been found, and now the people in the theft gang have also found it. It is so smooth that it is unbelievable, but there is still one problem, and that is the evidence.
