American Detective: Starting as a Rookie Cop in an American TV Show

Chapter 1417: Fire
Jack's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "What kind of bracelet is it? Where is it now?"

"There were two initials 'CC' on the bracelet. Nurse Albert handed the bracelet to Dr. Adarian, who was in charge of Lila. She said she later asked him about it, but he denied it and said he didn't remember it."

Danny could tell from his tone that he was very angry. "Maybe we should let Reese have a good talk with that 'conscientious' doctor. I'm sure he will be able to recall something."

This is the trouble with being a law enforcement officer. Dealing with those street thugs is easy, as Danny has considerable experience.

But he can't just use those tactics when dealing with ordinary people. Not only will it easily attract complaints, but once it's reported in the media, it will easily bring trouble to his father, the director.

"Don't worry. Little Lila is safe here with us. The one who should be nervous is the other party. Finch has disrupted their plans."

After Jack finished talking to Danny, he walked over to Alice and said, "Get the employment list of all the industries under the Petrosian family and find all the employees whose initials match 'CC'."

Soon Alice made a discovery, "We found a 'CC', Kelly Crosswell, who works as a secretary in President Petrosian's office. But she is 58 years old, so she probably can't give birth to a healthy and cute baby like Lila."

Jack was relieved to see Alice hack into the company's server effortlessly.

Her hacking skills have improved visibly in the past two years. Although she is definitely not as good as geniuses like Finch and Justin, it is enough to deal with most situations.

Justin has been very busy recently. So many data centers in "Shangri-La" are being completed one after another, and just the data integration and mutual backup is a huge project.

Finch is also helping with this work, but he is obviously more interested in Shangri-La's plan to launch a private satellite.

Finch seemed a little anxious about this matter, as if he was stimulated by something before. Jack didn't ask in detail, but he could roughly guess that it might be because of the appearance of "Root".

Although the "machine" is a highly confidential project of the NSA, as time goes by, more and more successful anti-terrorism cases have made some people wonder.

After all, what this world lacks the least is smart people, because many things themselves do not require evidence, and some people can imagine an answer that is close to the truth based on just a few clues.

Moreover, from the beginning of the birth of the "machine", Finch realized that there were ambitious people who wanted to control it to serve themselves. Jack believed that in addition to the "black box mode" he had always emphasized, this cautious and talented programmer must have prepared other response plans.

Jack's plan to launch three global synchronous orbit satellites seemed to be exactly what Finch wanted, so he did not hesitate to expose a considerable portion of his indirect holding companies.

These enterprises, which are basically emerging technology companies, not only provided a large amount of financing for the Shangri-La Group, but also provided strong support for the group's expansion. At least Chris no longer needs to worry about finding more non-Asian professional managers.

"Found two more 'CC's." Two new windows popped up on Alice's computer screen, "Chad Colombo, 40 years old, welder, male, this one can also be ruled out.

Another one is Claudia Cruz, 20 years old, who works as a receptionist at the head office.

The window showed a picture of a pretty white girl with a bright smile and beautiful blonde hair.

"She resigned from Petrosian's head office 10 months ago. If you calculate the time, that's about the time when her belly started to show." Alice was the only mother present and had a lot of experience in this area.

Pregnant women usually start to show their pregnancy around the third to fourth month of pregnancy. Although it is said that pregnancy lasts for ten months, in fact, most fetuses are basically fully developed around the 37th week, and more than 8% of fetuses are born between the 38th and 41st weeks. Little Lila has been born for 6 months, which is just the right time.

"Check the address. Jiejie and I will go and have a good talk with her." Jack glanced at little Lila in Hannah's arms. After drinking enough milk, the little girl fell asleep again. She is such a rare good baby.

"Wait a moment." Alice opened the NYPD database interface and entered Claudia Cruz's name and social security number into it, but her hand stopped in mid-air the next second.

The others also noticed that something was wrong with her expression, and Jubal quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"She's dead." Alice said in a low voice, "Her name appeared on a crime scene report, and it said she died in an apartment fire four days ago."

"Case closed?" Jack narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Not yet. The medical examiner believes it was an accident, but the person in charge of the case is our old acquaintance, Detective Kate Beckett, and she believes there are still some doubts.

Therefore, the body was sent to the CSI laboratory and the scene is still under protection."

Alice smiled bitterly after saying this, "Is this good news amidst the bad news?"

"I guess so." Jack started to make phone calls with a dark face. He first called the beautiful long-legged female detective who was about to get married, and then called Stella at the CSI New York laboratory.

The next morning, Jack took little Lila from Jessica, who looked sleepy, and urged her to go to rest quickly.

Although little Lila is easy to take care of, she is still a baby after all. She needs to be fed and her diapers changed every few hours. I have to force myself to stay awake and play with all kinds of jingling toys until she is tired and wants to sleep, and then I can close my eyes and take a nap.

Therefore, taking care of a baby is actually a very laborious job. Sometimes, over a long period of time, it all depends on the natural desire to protect the young in human genes.

A 6-month-old baby is already old enough to be fed solid food. Jack scraped two spoonfuls of apple puree, which made Xiaoli smile from ear to ear, and then he started to clean up.

He will be temporarily responsible for taking care of little Lila during the day, but he has to go out, so he can only take the little baby with him.

Not to mention that the "POI" duo is currently short-handed, in fact the wanted criminals team is also facing a similar situation.

Lai Ya, the newly-risen underworld tycoon, has been hard to find since his disguise as a high school teacher was exposed.

Although there were occasional rumors that he had taken over certain territories, as his influence grew, it became increasingly difficult for the FBI to catch him.

In addition to Danny and Reese who were keeping an eye on Moretti who had just been released from prison, hoping to find Laija through him, Jubal was also busy in the operations center of the federal building with the wanted criminal team all day.

A lot of intelligence has been collected at present, but the key evidence to send Lai Ya to prison is not sufficient, which is very puzzling.
