Chapter 354 Principles of interrogation, findings in the interrogation room

 Special Investigation Team, interrogation room.

Although Farhad had been a gambler, treated ordinary people as nothing, killed many people, and forced women, he knew that he was a good person and had always regarded his father as his idol in life.

So when he heard Luo An talking about his father, Farhad's eyes suddenly turned cold and he wanted to kill Luo An on the spot.

　　“The eyes are so sharp.

 But unfortunately, looks can’t kill, so John is still alive and well. "

Luo An didn’t care at all about the look in the eyes of a guy who was destined to go to prison. He left the interrogation table and sat back on his chair. Luo An crossed his legs and asked directly:

“Farhad, I’m too lazy to talk nonsense with you, let’s make a deal.

You tell me who kidnapped the little girl Carla and where they are now. When the court is in session, I will tell the judge about your cooperation with our interrogation. "

Thinking that Luo An was just talking nonsense, Farhad sneered and said:

“I want to see a lawyer, and I won’t answer any of your questions until the lawyer arrives.”

“Do you think a lawyer can help you clear your name?”

Luo An chuckled and said:

“You led a group of gun-wielding thugs to kidnap and extort John, charged with violent assault, illegal gun possession and many other serious crimes, which have been perfectly combined with you.

There is a high probability that you will be labeled a terrorist. In this case, how can a lawyer help you? Being able to enter Pelican Bay Prison is because the judge showed mercy to you. "

Pelican Bay Penitentiary, California’s “Tomb of the Living Dead.”

To prevent prisoners from forming cliques and causing chaos, Pelican Bay Prison implements complete solitary confinement. Everyone must be alone in a room with only a small door, no windows, and is only 2 square meters in size.

The prisoners are imprisoned for more than 22 hours a day, and they don’t see anyone at all except the prison guards who deliver meals.

After listening to Luo An's words, Farhad pondered for a few seconds, then suddenly slammed his bandaged right hand against the interrogation table.

　　Bang!

There was a muffled sound, and the wound on the right hand that had been shot before instantly burst open, bleeding again, and soon stained the bandage on it red.

Farhad's painful right arm trembled uncontrollably, then he raised his head and looked at Luo An, saying coldly:

“Mr. FBI, I’m hurt.

 According to federal law, I have the right to request a suspension of the trial and request a doctor to treat me. "

Lacey was startled by Farhad's actions, and her face suddenly became extremely ugly. She subconsciously turned to look at Luo An, only to find that Luo An was still sitting on the chair with his legs crossed, and the smile on his face did not change at all.

Feeling Lacey's gaze, Luo An gave her a reassuring look, then stood up slowly and said calmly:

“Farhad, have you ever thought about this question, why didn’t I have someone handcuff your injured right hand?”

Farhad's eyebrows jumped when he heard this, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.

As expected, Luo An continued:

“Even if you injure yourself again, you must stop the interrogation.

This situation can only explain two problems..."

Roan spoke at a leisurely pace. Lacey raised her head with confusion and waited for the next sentence. Farhad also endured the pain and stared at Roan, waiting for the other person to say the two questions he asked.

Then... Luo An chuckled and changed the subject:

“Lacie, suspend the interrogation and call a doctor for Farhad. Don’t let people come back and say we don’t respect human rights.”

 After saying that, Luo An smiled at Farhad, opened the door of the interrogation room, and walked out leisurely.

  “…”x2

Seeing the closed door of the interrogation room, Lacey's mouth twitched, but she still hurriedly stood up and carried out Luo An's order.

Farhad's face darkened instantly. The pain in his hand was just a minor thing. The key was what did Luo An guess? He hates this feeling of half-talking!

Thinking of what Luo An had just said and the look in his eyes at the end, Farhad had so many thoughts in his mind that he was confused and restless.

In the corridor, Luo An left the interrogation room where Farhard was. Instead of returning to the office area, he directly waved to Michelle and entered the interrogation room with Maxwell, the man in the black hood next to him.

Ten minutes later, the doctor briefly treated Farhad's wounds, and Lacey sent the doctor away. As soon as she returned to the office area, she saw Roan and Michelle walking out of the interrogation room where Maxwell was. "How about it?"

 Lacie hurriedly came up and asked:

 “Did you get any useful clues?”

 “No clues, Maxwell didn’t say a word.”

Michelle handed the interrogation record to Lacey. It was full of Roan’s words, and there were ellipses below Maxwell.

"All right."

Lacey threw aside the useless interrogation record and continued to ask the question that had been swirling in her mind for a long time:

“Roan, what did you mean by what you just said to Farhad?”

“Two guesses. Although Maxwell never responded, his expression helped me verify that these two guesses were correct.”

Luo An sat on the chair and asked about four major principles, called "rat principles".

 An abbreviated meme, "rat", also known as "MICE", represents the four most useful breakthroughs: money, ideology, coercion and threat, and ego.

 Use I and E when you encounter someone who is firm in your beliefs, and use M and C when you encounter someone who is not firm in your beliefs.

Just now interrogating Farhad and Maxwell, Luo An found that these two people's "faith" is very firm.

Of course, based on the life experiences of these two people, it is absolutely impossible for their beliefs to be any ideology or doctrine. The only possibility is that someone has given them a guarantee after the "action failed."

“I mentioned John during both the interrogations of Farhard and Maxwell.”

Facing the confused looks from Mona, Lacey and Michelle, Roan explained:

“But the expressions on the faces of these two men were only the regret of failure and resentment towards us, but not the disappointment that they could not continue to carry out operations against John in the future.

And when I talked about the court and prison, the expressions of these two people did not change. They seemed not to care at all..."

Hearing this, Mona and Lacey suddenly realized:

“You mean, Farhad and Maxwell actually have backup plans!

 And the person who implemented this back-up preparation was the man behind the scenes who provided them with weapons and equipment! He was also the one who kidnapped Kara! "

 “That’s right.”

 “But what is the mastermind going to do?”

 Michelle scratched her head and raised two questions of her own:

“And how can Farhad and Maxwell guarantee that the man behind the scenes did not lie to them?”

  “The probability of prison robbery is not high, and those prisons are not vegetarian.

However, in the process of escorting prisoners, there are not many opportunities to get hands-on. "

Luo An picked up the tea cup and took a sip, pondered for a few seconds, and then said:

“As for the second question, it is our next investigation target: Who is the mastermind behind the scenes? What is his relationship with these two guys?

Lacey, contact the federal Customs and Border Protection and the Department of Homeland Security to find out how this large group of people entered the federal government.

Mona, Michelle, you should carefully investigate the consumption situation, residence location and other information of this group of people in the Federation, and be sure to find out who is the mastermind behind this. "

 “OK!”

"no problem!"

 Seeing the three girls starting to get busy, Luo An put down his tea cup and nodded with satisfaction:

 In this way, we can not only investigate the case, but also have contact with other federal law enforcement agencies, killing two birds with one stone.

Of course, Luo An couldn’t just sit back and watch the show when the three of them were working. He turned on the computer and found an extra folder on the desktop, and asked in confusion:

 “Mona, what is this?”
