Chapter 1090 The Identity of the Murderer
The company where the incident occurred is located on the third floor of a newly built office building. When Jack walked into the elevator, he noticed that there were only holes where the cameras should have been installed, and the reserved lines were exposed inside. .
"So you didn't collect any surveillance footage?"
"It's been less than two weeks since the renovation here. 'Sena Lock' was the first company to move in, and many of the equipment are still there. It’s not installed properly.”
The police sergeant tucked the state police’s standard cowboy hat under his arm and quickly walked out of the elevator.
"This company, including the CEO, only has 9 people in total. Where has the other employee gone?" Jiejie asked, flipping through the two pages of the report that had just been handed to her.
"He is a software engineer in the company. The police went to his address immediately after the incident, but his neighbors claimed that they had not seen him in the past two days."
< br>As he spoke, the police chief led everyone through the corridor. As he just said, not only had the surveillance equipment not been installed, but the company LOGO at the door had not been hung yet.
The layout of this company is very simple. There is a public office area with partitions in the middle. Several rooms on both sides are reception rooms and a slightly larger conference room. The innermost one is a separate office.
"It's like a small company with good operating conditions but not a complicated business. What exactly do they do?" Aubrey asked, avoiding a pool of blood near the door.
At this time, five or six hours had passed since the incident, and the body had already been sent to the coroner's office. Even the on-site investigation was nearing completion, and several forensic assistants were clearing away the yellow evidence signs all over the place.
"The information says it is related to the Internet, but in this case, we are still contacting the victim's family." The police chief looked embarrassed.
There are a total of 9 people in a company, 8 were killed and 1 is missing. It is indeed difficult to understand the specific business of this company in a short period of time.
But the police chief pointed to the CEO's office in the back, "Adam Weiner is the CEO of this company. His office has been turned upside down. Maybe you can find some useful clues."
"Jiejie and Hannah go in and take a look." Jubal said, handing the tablet in his hand to Jack, "Alice just arrived to take photos of the scene. Let's see if we can restore the scene."
The police chief pointed to the large pool of blood at the feet of Clay, who was also holding a tablet. "This is the first deceased we found, Nathan Muntz."
"The body fell facing the direction of the door. He almost ran out of the office. It looked like he was the one who was killed last." Clay squatted on the ground, changing the direction of the tablet in his hand from time to time.
"The ones who fell here were Jane Birney and Winnie David. Jane also tried to escape, and her throat was cut from behind. Winnie. She hid under the table, but the murderer did not let go. Pass her."
Jack paused here and exchanged glances with Clay.
The police sergeant following them did not notice this and introduced himself, "Of the eight deceased, only these three died of stab wounds, the rest were shot.
So we suspect that the murderer is probably two people, but we did not find the bloody footprints of the second person. He must be very careful. "
Clay shook his head, his expression a little ugly, "There should be only one murderer. He used the pistol first. After emptying the magazine, he did not replace the magazine, but directly used a knife to complete the follow-up. "
He spoke with some reluctance, "The murderer's physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people. He has received strict training and is decisive and ruthless in his attacks. It is very likely that he has a certain military background. ”
They noticed something strange when they walked into the company. Although the scene was extremely bloody, with large pools of blood all over the carpet, there were no bullet holes or even bullets everywhere like usual shooting scenes. There was no broken glass. All the messy places were caused by the victim running away or falling down, such as the overturned water glass and the laptop computer that was pulled to the ground by the power cord.
The murderer suddenly attacked, and the eight people he faced were all unarmed ordinary people, but to complete such an efficient killing in a short period of time, only Jack and Clay could do it.
Aubrey's mind was spinning, and he was keenly aware of something wrong. "This doesn't make sense. If the murderer had premeditated it, there was no way he wouldn't have prepared spare magazines in advance. As a result, he had to use knives to kill the remaining three people." "
"This means that he is targeting someone, and the others are just collateral damage." Jack looked at the CEO office where Jiejie and Hannah entered. There was a pool of brain parts at the door. Tissue blood stains.
The photo shows that the body that fell here is the company CEO Adam Weiner. If the death conditions of other people can only explain the problem from the side, then the injuries suffered by this CEO are very intuitive.
Two shots in the chest and one in the head. Many of the guys who died at the hands of Jack and Clay suffered similar treatment.
“I guess he is the murderer’s priority target and the first victim.”
Before Jack finished speaking, the glass door of the office was pushed open, and Jiejie held an open locked gun box in her gloved hands.
"Jack, Clay, does this thing look familiar to you?"
In the gun box lies a MK24 with a golden anchor LOGO. Jack has an identical spare one. Gun, a souvenir from SEAL Team B.
——
"It looks like we know why NCIS assigned this case to the Most Wanted Team." Jubal looked at the photos hanging on the wall of the office.
Above is Adam Weiner wearing a white naval officer's uniform. Below the photo is a medal commemorative plaque, which states that he was awarded the Navy Cross in 2019.
"Do you know him?" Jack asked Clay.
Including ordinary SEALs and the so-called SEAL Team Six, now "DEVGRU", the external identities of their active members are strictly confidential, as is the case with other special forces such as Delta.
Even after retiring, their service experience is still sealed. Including the FBI, most of the records that can be found are deliberately blank or unclear records.
Clay shook his head, "Maybe you should ask Jason, I was training with the youth team before entering the B team."
"Wait a minute, you suspect that Adam Weiner was once a seal?" Aubrey reacted, a little unbelievable.
“This is unreasonable. The murderer broke in straight from the door without alerting or blocking others. As a former member of the special forces, Adam Weiner did not immediately try to return to the office to retrieve the Gun, what does this mean? "
"This means that he seems to be no threat. Maybe everyone here knows him, he may be the missing employee." Jiejie guessed.
As she spoke, she pointed to the documents lying around in the office, "There is another doubtful point. These are all contracts of 'Sena Locke'. Why would the murderer be interested in these things?"
