When the banquet was over, Lin Xiuyi and Sean, who had not seen each other for a long time, naturally would not go back as early as the others. After Lin Xiu told Miki and Urashima a few words, he followed Sean out of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Lin Xiuyi and Sean strolled along the Thames River together, and casually talked about the current situation of some colleagues in the Seattle branch that year.

"Remember that old guy Musk? He is now the deputy director of the state bureau. This old guy should really thank the Green River Killer now. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid he will only be able to stay in the Seattle precinct and No. 90 until he retires. Those perverted dealings on the road..."

"Director Musk? He's finally getting through, but Sean, I'm a little curious. How did you come to the UK?"

"Me? This is a long story! After you left, I was also recommended by Musk to Washington for a new position. But after I arrived in Washington, I didn't know that the position turned out to be New Mexico and Dealing with those lifeless drug cartels. I had a big fight with Musk, and I told him that everything he has now is what Lin and I gave him back with our lives, he owes me a favor, and I should not be Sent to the US-Mexico border to deal with those **** drug cartels..."

"And then, Musk agreed?"

"Yes, this old guy finally has a little conscience, and finally helped me operate the office in the UK as a special agent inspector..."

"Next, did you meet your current wife here?"

"Ha, it's really a good result, isn't it?"

...

Lin Xiuyi and Sean chatted all the way to the front of Westminster Bridge. Sean pointed to Big Ben across the road and asked Lin Xiuyi if he needed to leave a memorial here. Only then did Lin Xiuyi realize that he had come to such a famous place unknowingly.

As soon as Lin Xiu took out his mobile phone and stood with Sean on Big Ben, he took a selfie and took a photo. Then the two walked along St. George's Street for a while, and soon they were next to Westminster Station. Found a bar called St Stephen's.

Perhaps because it is close to the Palace of Westminster, the atmosphere in the bar is very quiet. After Lin Xiuyi and Sean found a seat and sat down, they immediately asked for two glasses of British light beer from the host here.

"Sean, can I ask how you and your wife met?"

"Needless to say. In a bar, of course! My wife, a freelance writer, once submitted an application to our office saying a novel was being written that included a federal agent. role, but she never knew what a federal agent is like, if she can get permission, she hopes to come to us to work for a while..."

"And then, do you agree?"

"Of course not, this kind of thing can't be so simple. But I thought at the time, it would be a little rude to just send her an email. So I used my private email to tell her that she was rejected. , but there is a real federal agent willing to ask her out for a drink..."

"And then? Did she agree?"

"Yes, she agreed at the time. So, we met at the Ministry of Sound club over there in Elephant Castle."

"It's strange, I noticed her the moment she got off the taxi, and then I took the initiative to ask her if she had an appointment with a federal agent, but I didn't expect it to be her... …”

As Sean spoke, he found a photo of himself and his wife on the phone and showed Lin Xiu a look. Lin Xiuyi crossed the screen of the mobile phone handed over by Sean with curiosity. On the screen, a petite 100-person woman was wrapping his arms around Sean's neck from behind. The two smiled happily together, looking very happy.

"Congratulations Sean!"

Lin Xiuyi said sincerely to his former partner.

"Then... that's almost the end of my story. How about you? How are you doing recently? Have you met a girl you like?"

Sean also asked Lin Xiuyi curiously.

"There is indeed one girl I like, but we have just started..."

After eating a glass of light beer, the two ordered another glass of dark beer. At the same time, the two also began to turn the topic to their respective jobs.

"The two American girls who were killed, do you have any clues?"

As soon as Lin Xiu put down the wine glass, he asked Sean in a low voice in a low voice.

"There is no clue. One of the two girls killed was a third-year student at Ohio University. According to domestic information, she should have lost contact with her friends on the way home after the prom. The police had searched Her residence, according to the testimony provided by her roommate, the girl never came back after leaving the apartment that day. The other victim was a math teacher at a public elementary school in Illinois. He disappeared while driving to Wisconsin to visit his parents..."

Lin Xiuyi listened carefully to Sean's introduction. He understood that what Sean said was clueless and must have come to a conclusion after the FBI had spent a certain amount of energy investigating. Generally speaking, for such abduction or kidnapping of adult women, there is a high probability that an acquaintance commits the crime. Judging from the identities of the two murdered women, both of them have good backgrounds and jobs. This is very different from the female victims of the Green River Killer series. After all, women with serious jobs and good educational backgrounds rarely encounter perverts like the Green River Killer~lightnovelpub.net~ In other words, it doesn't look like an acquaintance committed the crime, right? "

"It shouldn't be. In fact, I think this case is likely to be related to the dark web!"

"Darknet?"

"Lin, I wonder if you have heard of the Silk Road?"

I heard Sean mention the Silk Road. Lin Xiu suddenly remembered the transnational illegal goods trading case that was cracked in the United States last year. The detection of this case caused a great sensation at the time. If it wasn’t for the news of the arrest of the Green River Killer that eventually aroused greater media interest, the Silk Road case would probably have been the most sensational case in the United States last year.

"I have heard a little about this case. Is it the illegal goods trading platform that the FBI cracked down last year?"

"Yes, since I was sent to Europe, I have been in charge of some work related to the dark web. Although the Silk Road was successfully destroyed by us, similar dark web trading platforms have emerged one after another. More seriously, All transactions are paid for in Bitcoin, and it is difficult for us to find out the exact flow of funds…”
