Chapter 466 [Case of son’s dissection after explosion at former team manager’s house]

Monday, at ten o'clock in the morning, on the streets of Los Angeles, an SUV was driving quickly forward on the highway.

 Winslow was driving the car. Sitting in the passenger seat was Lacey who was sorting out prosecutorial equipment. Luo An was sitting in the back seat of the car, sorting out the equipment while carefully looking through the documents of the case.

Beside Luo An, there was also team leader Potente Byrne.

Potente-Bourne's face was very gloomy and he was silent for a while. He turned his head and said seriously:

“Luo An, thank you to the special investigation team for your hard work this time. You must catch the murderer.”

 The deceased this time was Paul, the only son of Lyndon Osborne, the former group supervisor.

Linden had retired less than a year ago, and now his son was hung upside down and disemboweled. The death was very tragic. It is difficult not to think that this was the murderer's revenge on Lyndon.

 Potente-Byrne and Lyndon Osborne have known each other for many years and have a good relationship. Potente was able to take the current position of team leader with Lyndon's help.

 In addition, Potente-Byrne, as the team leader, has more things to think about.

For example, will the murderer target other FBI retirees? The year Lyndon Osborne retired, many people retired with him.

Even more, will the murderer’s targets include current employees, such as other team supervisors or other investigation team leaders?

 “We’ll do our best, sir.”

Luo An closed the folder and nodded. He had been thinking about why the murderer hung 16-year-old Paul upside down and disemboweled him.

 Is it simply torture, or does it have other meanings?

Luo An also suspected that the murderer in this case was targeting Lyndon Osborne, so he planned to ask the other party for a list of people with whom the other party had a deep hatred to see if he could find anything. .

Winslow drove very steadily, and it didn't take long to arrive at Lyndon Osborne's home.

This is a very common duplex villa in Los Angeles. There are two lawns in the front and back of the villa, and there is a swing and a round table in the front corridor, which gives people a very warm feeling.

The SUV slowly parked on the side of the road. Potente-Byrne immediately got out of the car without hesitation. Winslow and Lacey also opened the door.

At this moment, the familiar burning sensation came again. Luo An’s head jumped sharply. He quickly reached out and took Potente Byrne’s arm, and said loudly at the same time:

“Something’s wrong, everyone, get back to the car quickly!”

Winslow and Lacey twitched their brows when they heard this. The two of them, who believed in Roan in their hearts, quickly turned around and prepared to return to the SUV. Potente-Byrne subconsciously stopped and turned around.

Boom—

The next second, a deafening explosion suddenly erupted, orange-red flames shot up into the sky, bricks, wooden planks, and rubble flew everywhere. The villa that was full of warmth just now was instantly turned into ruins, and the cars on the entire street buzzed and screamed.

The moment the explosion sounded, the experienced Winslow and Lacey subconsciously lowered their heads and bent down. They were not seriously injured, but were hit a few times by a few pieces of wood.

Potente-Bourne took a step too late to get back to the car in time. He was hit hard by the blast wave and his back was hit hard by several flying bricks.

The only person who was not injured was Luo An, who did not get out of the car at all, but his body was covered with glass shards. Because he was too close, the explosion shock wave blew all the windows of the SUV into pieces.

 “Fu-k!”

Potente-Bourne, whose clothes and hair were covered in dust, didn't care about the pain coming from his back. While cursing, he quickly got up from the ground, turned around and ran towards the villa.

At this time, the second floor of the villa has disappeared, leaving only the first floor of the villa burning with blazing flames. Black explosion traces and gray smoke are the only things left here.

 “Sonof better than eating!”

Winslow and Lacey, who were also covered in dust, quickly got up from the ground and looked ugly when they saw this scene.

 Seeing Potente Byrne running towards the villa regardless of the possibility of a second explosion, Winslow and Lacey tried to catch up. Roan quickly jumped out of the car, grabbed the two of them, and said quickly:

“Lessie, call the ambulance, trace inspection unit, and counter-improvised explosive device unit and ask them to hurry up and come to the scene as quickly as possible!

Winslow, please maintain order at the scene and don’t let irrelevant people enter the scene. In addition, carefully observe the people at the scene and arrest the suspicious ones on the spot! "

The sudden explosion startled everyone. A number of cars parked on the street honked their horns indiscriminately. Many passersby shouted to God and came over. Some people took out their phones and called 911. Considering that the cause of the explosion is currently unknown, but the murderer who caused the explosion is likely to come to the scene of the crime to view his masterpiece, Luo An asked the more experienced Winslow to maintain order.

"clear!"

Lacie nodded heavily and took out her cell phone. Winslow instantly understood what Luo An meant, turned around and ran to stop those who wanted to approach the scene.

The two of them started to take action, and Luo An quickly ran towards the burning villa.

Luo An, who has a keen sense of smell, not only smelled the smell of burning wood here, but also smelled an indescribable smell of barbecue.

　　Considering that before coming here with Potente-Byrne, Roan had called Linden, and the other party said that he and his wife were at home. It goes without saying what the smell of barbecue means.

As for Potente Byrne, Luo An just wants to get him out of the villa first. The former team leader has most likely died in the explosion, and Luo An doesn't want to find that the team leader also died in this.

 “Sir!”

 Lifting his leg and stepping over a broken arm burning with flames, Luo An's eyes twitched and he quickly ran to Potente Byrne and took his arm:

 “It’s too dangerous here!”

"fine!"

Potente Byrne shook his head, his expression extremely ugly. He walked quickly among the ruins, rummaged for a while, and finally found part of the former team director Lyndon Osborne... under a collapsed board.

As for Lyndon Osborne’s wife, they were scattered on the walls and floors around Potente Bourne.

While Potente-Byrne was rummaging around, Roan also found a smashed laptop under a burning board.

 After a brief look at the hard drive and found that it was fine, Luo An put the computer away and prepared to go back and ask Mona to investigate the situation in the computer.

　　——

Ten minutes later, the LAPD, Los Angeles Fire Department, FBI Trace Inspection Section, FBI Counter-Improvised Explosive Device Unit and others all arrived at the scene.

While the fire brigade was using tools to extinguish the fire, the all-pervasive group of reporters in Los Angeles also came here after hearing the news, holding microphones and cameras to record the scene.

Potente Byrne, the team leader, took a look at the ruins of the villa, took a deep breath, patted Luo An on the shoulder and handed the scene to him. Then, without cleaning up the dust on his body, he walked directly to the group of reporters and answered expressionlessly. cause their problems.

 “It’s been such an eventful winter...”

Looking at the messy scene in front of him, Luo An rubbed his temples. His son was disemboweled and his father and mother were blown up. There was no need to guess now. The murderer came for the Linden family.

Seeing several agents from the counter-improvised explosive devices department walking out with a bunch of things, Luo An quickly stepped forward and asked:

“What’s inside this? Has the cause of the explosion been found?”

 “Hello, Captain Greenwood.”

The detective from the counter-improvised explosive device department headed by ˜ nodded and explained:

“We found fragments of semtin, traces of batteries and electrical circuits at the site.

This bomb is detonated using a radio frequency signal. When the explosion occurs, the murderer will never be too far away from the villa. "

The detective went on to say that judging from the layout of the villa, the explosion occurred in Paul's room. When the explosion occurred, the distance between the two victims and the bomb was definitely not more than 1.5 meters.

 “OK.”

Luo An nodded and was about to continue asking, when an agent from the Trace Inspection Section suddenly came over:

“Captain Greenwood, we have found some items that may be able to help with this case.”
