Chapter 692 New Case
3 month 2 day.

Beverly Hills.

This is the most prestigious community in Los Angeles. It has the world's most upscale commercial street. Many famous Hollywood stars live here. It attracts countless tourists from all over the world every year.

A red BMW was driving on the wide street. The car slowed down, drove to the right, and drove into the gate of a courtyard covered by dense trees.

The fence gate at the entrance of the yard slowly opened, and a red BMW drove into the yard and stopped at the door of the garage.

A Mexican woman in her forties walked out of the driver's seat, opened the trunk door, and took out a supermarket shopping bag filled with fresh fruits and vegetables.

The Mexican woman walked to the door carrying a bag. The door opened automatically after facial recognition. The woman pushed the door open and walked in. After changing into slippers, she habitually put the shopping bag in the restaurant.

She walked back to the living room and saw that it was a little messy. The TV cabinet seemed to have been turned over. She frowned slightly and called out, "Ms. Moser, are you up?"

no respond.

The Mexican woman walked up the spiral staircase to the second floor and called out, "Ms. Moser, do you want to have breakfast first, or take a bath first?"

"Uh-huh."

This time, an unusual noise came from the bedroom on the second floor.

The Mexican woman felt a little strange, but she still bravely walked outside the bedroom. She was about to knock on the door, but found that the door was open. She slowly pushed the door open, opened her eyes wide, and a look of astonishment appeared on her face.

I saw a graceful white woman lying on the bed in the room. She was naked, her hands were tied and hung on the head of the bed, her mouth was stuffed with black lace underwear, her legs were spread apart, and her feet were tied to both sides of the foot of the bed.

"Oh my God, Ms. Moser, you..." The Mexican woman was a little at a loss.

"Wuwu..." The white woman lying on the bed shook her head and struggled hard.

The Mexican woman hurried over, took the black lace underwear out of her mouth, and asked, "Ms. Moser, what happened?"

"Call 911, hurry up!
"Wuwu..." Rebecca Moser cried in a hoarse voice, as if to vent the anger and humiliation in her heart.

……

after an hour.

Luke led the team to Beverly Hills.

Jackson complained as he drove, "Captain, we can't get through ahead."

Luke yawned and looked ahead. The road was clogged with cars and the sidewalks were crowded with people.

Luke felt that even if he honked, he would not be able to pass in the short term, and the scene was not far away, so he simply got out of the car and walked over.

As he walked forward, he also figured out the cause of the traffic jam. The outermost ones were private cars, further in were the TV station's interview cars, and the innermost ones were police cars.

As for the people around, they were even more mixed, including neighbors, passing tourists, and some people just watching the fun.

In the crowd, Luke also saw Nami Inoue winking at him.

Xiao Hei spread his hands and said, "It's just a robbery, why is there such a big fuss?"

Jenny said, "The victim was Rebecca Moser."

Xiao Hei asked, "Is she famous?"

Jenny said, “Yes, she has filmed many movies and TV series, and my favorite one is called Hot Sweetheart.

She plays a doctor in the film who is very skilled in medicine, has a strong sense of responsibility and is popular with men.

She also has a golden retriever named Paul, who is a very sweet boy.

I even think that Paul is the real hero of the show. He always appears when the heroine needs him, just like a family member. "

Xiao Hei thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any impression."

Jenny replied, "That show was cancelled after only one season, and I always felt it was a shame."

Luke squeezed through the crowd and finally entered Rebecca Moser's house. Flash lights were flashing around and many reporters recognized Luke.

"Captain Li, I heard that Rebecca Moser was robbed at home. Was she injured?"

"Officer Li, do you think this is a common home invasion or a targeted revenge case?"

"An ambulance just took Rebecca Moser away. Is her injury serious?"

"Captain Li, how long do you plan to take to solve the case..."

Luke was helpless with so many microphones in front of him. He hadn't even seen the live show, so what could he say?
The victim of this case is a well-known film and television actor. The impact of the case is far greater than that of an ordinary robbery case. It can easily become a topic of conversation among people after dinner. This is also the reason why the Detective Bureau asked him to take over the case as soon as possible after the incident.

Solve the case as soon as possible and calm public opinion as soon as possible.

Luke ignored the reporter's questions and walked directly into the yard. A patrolman came up to him and said, "Hello, Captain Li. I am Oruchi Kuka, the first patrolman to arrive at the crime scene."

Luke shook his hand and said, "Hello, man. Tell us about the situation here."

“We received the alarm call at about 8:40 and arrived at the scene at 8:50.

The victim was the owner of the house, Rebecca Moser, and the person who reported the case was Rebecca Moser's nanny, Mayfair Marseille.

She claims Rebecca Moser was robbed early this morning.

An ambulance then arrived and took Rebecca Moser away.”

Luke pressed, "Is Rebecca Moser's injury serious?"

Oruchi Kuka shook his head. “The injury is not too serious, but she was frightened and her mind is a little unstable.”

"Did the burglar alarm go off?"

"No."

Luke nodded, "Where is the reporter, Mayfair Marseille? I want to talk to her."

"It's in the living room." Oruchi Kuka made a gesture of invitation and led Luke into the villa.

Oruchi Kuka walked over to the sofa and said to a Mexican woman, "Ms. Mayfair Marseille, this is Captain Li. He is in charge of investigating the robbery case. He wants to talk to you."

Mayfair Marseille stood up and turned to look at Luke, looking a little embarrassed.

Luke also looked at her and gestured for her to sit down.

You reported the case?"

"Yes." Mayfair Marseille nodded slightly.

"What is your relationship to the victim, Rebecca Moser?"

"I'm her babysitter."

"How long have you been working in her home?"

"About two years, almost three years."

"Does Ms. Moser usually live alone?"

"yes.

I'm here during the day and go back to my own home at night."

"Can you describe the circumstances of the incident?"

Mayfair Marseille took a deep breath and said, “I usually go to work around eight o’clock, and sometimes earlier if Ms. Moser asks.

I went shopping at the supermarket today, so I arrived later than usual and arrived at Ms. Moser's house around 8:30.

Normally, Ms. Moser would be awake by this time, but she wasn't there today.

I noticed a bit of a mess in the living room and called her a few times, but no one responded. However, I heard some noise in her room and went up to check.

Then, she was found tied to the bed and her mouth was gagged.”

"Have you moved any items at the scene?"

"No, I just put the things I bought from the supermarket in the restaurant, and then went to Ms. Moser's bedroom and helped her untie the ropes that bound her."

Luke looked around the living room and asked, "Has anything been lost or moved in the house?"

Mayfair Marseille pointed to the TV cabinet and said, “Those cabinets were opened, and I don’t know exactly what was missing.

Ms. Moser was terrified and in a state of panic, and she didn’t tell me.”

Luke went to the bedroom on the second floor. The bedroom was very large, with a separate bathroom and dressing room. All the cupboards were opened, including a small safe in one of the wardrobes, which was also opened. There was no longer anything inside.

Luke then asked Mayfair Marseille to describe the scene when he found Rebecca Moser.

After learning about the position in which Rebecca Moser was tied up, Luke observed the messy bed and found some stains and blood. He guessed that the victim was most likely violated by the robber.

Luke asked Mayfair Marseille, "Does this house have a burglar alarm?"

"Have."

"Why didn't the burglar alarm go off?"

Mayfair Marseille shrugged. "I don't know."

Luke walked to the bedroom window and found that the window was open. He could faintly see the traces of shoe prints on the windowsill. "Isn't there an infrared alarm installed on the window?"

"No.

Ms. Moser has two cats who love to hang out on the balcony, and she doesn’t want to restrict their freedom, so the windows don’t have infrared alarms installed.

Luke pressed, "Where are the two cats?"

Mayfair Marseille shook his head. “I don’t know. Maybe they were scared and ran away to other places.”

Jackson said, "Even if there is no infrared alarm device installed because of the cat, there should be a camera AI anti-theft system. I saw many cameras in this house. How did the suspect avoid the camera?"

Luke opened the window and saw the backyard outside.

Assuming that the footprints on the windowsill were left by the suspect, the suspect most likely entered the room from the backyard.

Luke looked out the window at the backyard, with a swimming pool directly below and many trees planted around it, and asked, "Why are there so many trees in the backyard?"

Mayfair Marseille replied, "Ms. Moser often swims and sunbathes in the backyard. She values ​​her privacy and the trees surrounding the yard block her view."

"You're right. It can not only block people's sight, but also the camera." Luke pointed to the row of trees next to the south wall of the house and said, "The trees are very low. If someone enters the backyard from that angle, the camera may not be able to capture the picture, forming a blind spot for surveillance.

The camera AI anti-theft system is completely ineffective.”

Luke guessed that it was probably someone he knew who committed the crime. At least the other party should have come to the house to check it out. "Has anyone been to Rebecca Moser's house recently?"

Mayfair Marseille replied, "Uh... Ms. Moser held a party a few days ago and invited about thirty guests."

Sorry, I didn’t update yesterday. I was stuck in writing for two days in a row.

I conceived two cases, but when I actually started writing them, I always felt that they were not interesting enough, so I rejected them both.

Today I am writing about the third case I have conceived.

Let me report to you all, I was not lazy, I was really stuck in it.
