Chapter 613 Case closed

gold!

Leonard Hogan admitted to the killings and described a motive.

But he did not admit that he took the gold from the safe.

Luke guessed that there were two possibilities. The first possibility was that Leonard Hogan had an accomplice.

After Leonard Hogan committed the murder, he asked his accomplices to take away the gold and rebuild his golden body to welcome His coming.

The second possibility.

After Leonard Hogan committed the murder, others visited the scene and stole the gold from the safe.

Luke looked at Leonard Hogan and tested again, "Where is the gold that Bellam Solo hid in the safe?"

"I told you, I have never seen gold at all."

"Was anyone else present when you killed Beram Solo?"

"No."

"When you arrived at Bellam Solo's house, did you see any suspicious persons?"

"Not found."

"Have you told anyone else about your desire to find another body?"

"No."

Luke still saw no trace of lying on his face.

After a few more questions, Luke and Michael left the ward.

Michael frowned, "Could it be that we guessed wrong and the gold was not placed in the safe, but was hidden elsewhere by Bellam Solo?"

Luke said, "In that case, why would someone cut off Beram Solo's fingers?

The fingerprint of Bellam Solo's finger can open the safe. Regardless of whether there is gold in the safe, a third person must have been to the scene.

The time should be from after the murderer Leonard Hogan committed the murder to before the FBI arrived.

In addition, the gold is very heavy, so if the other suspect wants to transport the gold, he will definitely need transportation."

After having a rough guess, Luke and Michael reorganized the case and used road surveillance to identify three suspect vehicles that matched the time.

Among the three suspect vehicles, the owner of a gray Buick is one of the followers of the Eternal Cult.

Name, William Fran

Sex: Male

Age, 36 years old

Mobile number, 212 876 2578

Address, Cavell Apartment No. 403

Social Security Number, 050-53-7362

An Eternal Cult believer with a history of theft appeared near the scene during the incident, and the FBI had enough reason to suspect that he was an accomplice of Leonard Hogan.

Cavell Apartments.

This is an old-fashioned apartment located in the suburbs of New York. The apartment is eight stories high and has two elevators, one of which is under repair.

The FBI surrounded the apartment, and Luke and Michael rushed outside room 403.

"Dong dong."

Michael knocked on the door.

no respond.

"Bang bang." Michael knocked hard on the door again.

At this time, there was some movement in the apartment.

After a while, the door of the apartment room opened, and a sleepy white man about forty years old stood at the door.

He yawned, his mouth smelled of alcohol, and he held his right hand on the door frame, looking like he was still hungover.

"Who are you looking for?"

Michael looked at the other person, "Are you Warren Fran?"

"Who are you?" William Fran took a step back, showing a vigilant look.

Michael showed his ID, "FBI!"

William Fran's body trembled visibly, "What do you want from me?"

"Do you know Bellam Solo?"

"Yes."

"What is your relationship?"

"Friendship."

"When was the last time you saw him?"

"On the night of October 7th, we had a party with mutual friends."

"What time did you meet and what time did you leave?"

"We met around eight o'clock and left at ten o'clock."

"Did you see him again after that?"

"No."

"are you sure?"

"Yes." William Fran pursed his lips and asked, "Why are you asking about Bellam Solo?"

"he died."

"Oh my God, this is terrible. When was he killed? Have you caught the murderer?"

"No, it's because we didn't catch the murderer that we came to you to understand the situation."

"Uh... I'm willing to help you, but I didn't know that Beram Solo was dead or what happened to Beram Solo."

Michael asked, "Can you answer a few simple questions for us?"

Warren Fran hesitated for a moment and nodded, "You can ask."

"Where did you last see Bellam Solo?"

"At Victor's Church, there were many people at that time, not just the two of us, and they could all testify to me."

"Have you been to Bellam Solo's house?"

"No, we just have the same belief and rarely communicate in private."

"Do you have a Buick with license plate number KEO3948?"

"Yes."

"Are you using this car?"

"Yes."

"Did you loan the car out?"

"No."

"According to our investigation, this car went near Beram Solo's house on the night of October 7th. How do you explain that?"

Warren Fran looked nervous and rubbed his hands, "I...could someone have used my fake license plate?"

Michael said, “The road surveillance not only captured the license plate number, but also the driver.

It's you.

So, why did you kill Beram Solo?"

"I did not kill Beram Solo. I can swear to God that this is all a misunderstanding..."

"Come on, what you believe in is not God at all." Michael interrupted his defense, "We know you are the murderer, and you know it too."

"No no no, you are mistaken, the murderer is not me."

Michael curled his lips, "Every murderer I caught had this excuse at the beginning.

You clearly drove to the deceased's house and still refused to admit it, which shows that you have a guilty conscience.

Moreover, the time when you appeared near Bellam Solo's house coincided with the time when Bellam Solo was murdered.

Why cut off his head?"

"I didn't kill him, let alone chop off his head. You can't find the real culprit, so you're going to frame me?" William Fran showed an annoyed look and said angrily, "Kill Bellam Thor.

It’s not me who’s in trouble.”

Michael probed, "Who is that?"
