Chapter 75: George Who Knows the Truth(2/2)
If there is any difference if there is a surveillance picture,
That is……
Hawke bought a drink!
But……
He is only seventeen years old, how can he buy wine?
According to the "Law on the Prohibition of Underage Drinking", people under the age of 21 are not allowed to buy tobacco and alcohol, and stores must show their identity documents when selling tobacco and alcohol. It is illegal to sell tobacco and alcohol to minors.
Behavioral.
Then the problem comes.
It is known that Hawke is seventeen years old, so where did the box of bourbon he just carried into the car come from?
You can't say that the box you saw is wine, but it actually contains mineral water.
George turned his attention to the person in charge of surveillance.
The person in charge of surveillance was silent for a while, and then without saying a word, he reviewed the surveillance footage of the cashier.
soon.
The answer is out.
The cashier staff checked Hawke's ID.
There is nothing wrong with the ID, at least the name is correct, but there is some discrepancy in the age on the ID. The age on the ID is twenty-two years old, which is in line with the conditions for purchasing tobacco and alcohol.
This is also normal.
There are policies and measures to counter.
These days, no high school student in the Federation has an adult ID. After all, tobacco and alcohol stores or nightclubs are not connected to the Internet. As long as you buy a fake ID that is legible, you can drink openly.
Even if it is discovered by then, it will have nothing to do with the store. Anyway, the store should have fulfilled its responsibilities.
After George read it, he stopped reading.
"Has the surveillance been repaired?"
"Sorry, the following content is lost."
"good."
George nodded, led Beckett and Bob out of the monitoring room, returned to the parking lot, and walked to the empty parking space where the blue Ford sedan should be parked in the monitoring.
quite a while.
"Beckett!"
George looked at Beckett, thought for a while and said, "Go back to the station and check the surveillance to see where the Audi A8 went after leaving here."
Beckett nodded and responded, then thought for a moment and said, "Do we need to investigate this Hawke Dane first?"
George didn't speak, just looked at Beckett silently.
Beckett paid attention to George's gaze, thought of George's arrangements tonight, and nodded in realization: "By the way, you will be entertaining this Hawke tonight."
George then looked away, took a deep breath, and looked at the time on his watch: "Let's investigate first. After you find the content of the surveillance, tell me as soon as possible."
Beckett nodded.
After getting in the car.
Bob Hayes, who was sitting in the back seat, touched his chin, sorted out the known clues, made bold assumptions, and carefully verified: "George, Beckett, tell me, is there another possibility that King
Not the people around Jill, but the familiar people around Gwen?"
King did not pretend to kill Arthur and George because he knew Jill.
But...
King is like this because he knows Gwen.
Depending on the people you know, the directions of investigation will naturally be different.
At the beginning, everyone thought that Arthur Stacy was the main target, and George was the additional damage, so they preconceptionally thought that Alex Vilank was going for Arthur Stacy. Naturally,
King, who took the order, was also related to Arthur Stacey and Jill Stacey's family.
And now?
"hiss!"
Bob Hayes tugged at his beard that had not been shaved for two days and took a breath of air: "King took the order at first, and the order was from Arthur Stacy. At this time, King did not pretend to kill.
Arthur's idea, but everything changed when Alex Veranque placed additional orders for George and Gwen."
Beckett, who was sitting in the passenger seat, frowned and said, "Then why is King not the person next to George? Don't forget, we have seen the surveillance and King is very familiar with the 12th Precinct."
Bob shook his head.
"I first thought about this possibility, but King is a professional killer. Let alone the 12th Precinct, even the federal headquarters can probably buy the FBI's floor plan. And don't forget, King's first time
The point of exposure to the public.”
"Actually, there's something I didn't tell you, George!"
Bob thought for a while and considered that George who was driving should not be driving dangerously, so he simply said: "Actually, when I picked up Jill that day, Gwen was not alone. There were other people beside Gwen at the time.
A boy, if I remember correctly, it should be this Hawke Dane."
George squeaked and turned to look at Bob behind him.
Eyes facing each other.
moment.
The throbbing in his soul made Bob feel that if he hadn't considered driving, George would have pounced on him and bit his neck fiercely.
Luckily George was driving.
George turned back and controlled the car.
"continue!"
"..."
Bob couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, and then continued with Beckett's eyes that were three parts sympathetic, three parts wishing for blessings, and four parts continuing: "When I hurriedly received Jill, there wasn't much.
Pay attention to this Hawke. Now that I think about it, if I remember correctly, the vehicle stolen that night should have belonged to this Hawke."
After the battle between King and Butcher that night, the New York Police Department also conducted an investigation and confirmed that there was indeed a call to the police saying that his vehicle was stolen at that time, so they did not continue the investigation.
After all, it is normal for killers to steal cars.
But think about it now.
seem……
What a coincidence.
after awhile.
The car stopped in front of George's house.
George opened the car door, and after being silent all the way, he opened the door and got out of the car, and said to Beckett: "Monitor, as soon as possible."
Beckett nodded.
The next second.
George's eyes fell on Bob with his head lowered in the back seat.
"Can't see me, can't see me, can't see me."
"..."
George took a deep breath: "Check the whereabouts of Hawke Dane when the shootout on Route 32 happened."
Bob nodded repeatedly: "Okay."
George closed the car door and walked towards the entrance of his apartment.
Sixth floor.
When George opened the door, he first saw the three little cats playing on the sofa in the living room, and then he saw his wife Helen, who was busy in the kitchen and was a very good wife and mother.
"came back?"
Helen walked out of the kitchen carrying her specialty lemon seabass, looked at George who entered the room, and said jokingly: "I thought you would forget about tonight's events because you were busy with the case."
George said nothing.
In fact, if the guests who were having dinner tonight had not appeared in the surveillance, he would have forgotten it.
but……
Stories are always full of comedy, aren't they?
