Chapter 262 Four Umbrellas

 In the office area of ​​Investigation Team No. 5, at the front, William posted three photos on the whiteboard.

 The three photos are all adult white men, but there is a slight difference in age.

 “First, Carl.”

William pointed to the 37-year-old, slightly bald, middle-aged white man in the photo and introduced:

“This guy is a surgeon at a hospital in New York. He is never married and has three sons, aged between 5 and 10 years old. They are all adopted.

 We checked and found that there were some issues with his adoption certificate and it was most likely false. "

Luo An wrote down this guy’s name in his notebook:

“A doctor can effectively check the physical condition of children at any time.

 You can also do something you like to do by the way. "

Mona and others agreed with Luo An’s view. William continued to introduce the second suspect, a middle-aged fat white man in a suit and tie with a bright smile:

“This guy’s name is Doyle. He is the owner of a travel agency called [Imagination Wandering]. He is single and has no children.

We checked the travel company. In addition to some tourism projects on the surface, the company also has some travel projects that must be registered as a member to view the specific content.

  But how to register as a member, we have not found a way. "

Hearing this, Lacey raised her hand, looked at the detectives and said:

“I understand this. It is 100% the model of membership invitation and introduction.”

 “That’s right.”

 Luo An expressed his affirmation of Lacey’s conjecture.

This method was very common in later generations when the Internet was developed. Some adult forums basically relied on invitation codes to enter and register.

William expressed that they had the same suspicion, and then went on to introduce the last person.

This white man is very young. In the photo, he is standing on the school playground, holding a pair of little boys playing football and smiling:

“His name is Vincent, and he is the youngest son of our deputy mayor of New York City.”

"Um…"

 Hearing William's words, all the agents of Investigation Team No. 5 fell silent.

Luo An turned his pen a few times and asked in a deep voice:

“You think these three people are the central organizational figures of the [Federal Youth Hobby Association] in New York City. Do you have any concrete evidence? Direct evidence is best.”

“There is no direct evidence, but we found a lot of clues.”

William walked back to his work station, handed a few pieces of paper to Luo An and the other four, and said at the same time:

“Karl won’t say anything. There is something wrong with his adoption certificate, and it is most likely false.

Doyle’s travel company’s main business is in South America, South Asia and other regions, and its annual reported income does not match Doyle’s own economic status.

 As for Vincent…”

William handed Luo An a newspaper. There was an article in the lower right corner. The main content was that someone revealed that the youngest son of the deputy mayor of New York often played with little boys. One of the parents later discovered that his son was not in a good state and was arrested after calling the police. Intimidation forced private settlement.

This kind of report happens every once in a while and never stops, but the article is always in the corner and no one cares about it at all. The newspaper even went bankrupt some time ago.

 “Tsk tsk tsk, it’s dark, it’s so dark.”

Luo An was speechless after reading the contents. It is indeed a capitalist country. These guys who have the right to speak really want to have wind and rain.

“But these are circumstantial evidence and we cannot apply for a search warrant.”

 Ryder frowned as he looked at the three little boys in the photo who were about the same age as his son and were adopted by Carl.

 Who knows what Karl did to them. “So the next goal is to find direct evidence.”

Luo An walked to the front of the office area, crossed his arms and looked at the photos on the whiteboard for a while, then turned to look at everyone and said:

"Lacie, you and Ryder go to the school where the three little boys adopted by Carl go to. Ask the teachers and other people in that school to see if you can get some clues... Go to the immigration office as well. one time."

"no problem!"

 Ryder and Lacey responded, threw away the folders in their hands, turned and left the No. 5 Investigation Team.

Luo An then looked at Mona, the corners of his mouth raised slightly:

“Mona, I believe you have a way to get into that travel company’s website, right?”

Mona smiled, raised her right hand and gave Luo An an "OK" gesture.

"Wait a moment."

William was a little anxious when he saw this and said:

“Luo An, you don’t want Mona to invade that company’s internal network and look for evidence directly, do you? In this case, the judge will decide that there is a problem with our law enforcement procedures!”

"of course not."

Although Luo An did not deal with the follow-up of the case very much, he still knew a lot about the federal procedural justice, so he explained to William and Mona with a smile:

“Mona, you just need to register as a member on that travel company’s website and find out the specific business of that travel company.”

Mona threw an OK sign to Luo An again. Upon seeing this, William seemed to understand what Luo An was planning to do, but Luo An did not continue to explain to him, but left the No. 5 Investigation Team with the folder.

 Office of the Special Agent in Charge.

"This is one of the suspects we found, sir."

Luo An sat across from Veranith and placed information on the situation of the New York deputy mayor's youngest son, Vincent, on the other side's desk.

 “Your speed is great.”

Veranith picked up the folder, flipped through it briefly, then put it back on the table, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and handed Luoan another folder:

“This Vincent is indeed one of the founders and managers of the New York Association, but there are four umbrellas behind him.”

Luo An opened the folder and found that the situation found by Veranith was more detailed. In addition to the New York deputy mayor, the identities of the four umbrellas also included a congressman, a senior executive of the New York judicial department, and an FBI New York branch. Head of a certain department.

Selectively ignoring the contents of the folder about the investigation conducted by the Washington headquarters, Luo An raised his head and showed a smile to Veranith:

“As expected of you, sir, for finding out these things so easily.”

　　Veriness heard this and threw a pair of beautiful hygiene **** to Luo An.

: Veryness took a folder from the pile of documents next to her, lowered her head to continue working, and said at the same time:

“The rest will be left to you. Remember to inform me when you start taking action. I’m going to hold a large press conference.”

Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this and said in a low voice:

 “Sir, this is a big case.”

 “It’s indeed a big case.”

Veranith subconsciously repeated Luo An's words, and then she paused while lowering her head to write. She slowly raised her eyes to look at Luo An, and her tone also changed a little:

"How to say?"

“Sir, what are the requirements for the Special Agent in Charge to continue to be promoted?”

Luo An leaned back tactically with a smile on his face and crossed his legs.

I am going to Los Angeles next, and I will definitely not be able to see Veranith for a while.

In order to prevent Veranith's favorability towards him from declining due to distance in the future, Luo An decided to brush up Veranith's favor before leaving New York so that she would not be able to forget him in a short time.

 At the same time, doing so would also be beneficial to Luo An himself.
