Chapter 1109 Women’s Prison


Chapter 1109 Women's Prison

The female police detective stepped forward and blocked the man's way, "Excuse me, sir, NYPD, we need to ask you a few questions about Valerie Monroe. Doctor’s ”

The man hesitated, glanced at Beckett's police badge, and his face sank slightly, "If you want to talk about Valerie, call my office."

After that, he turned sideways and walked away. Beckett and Cassel passed between them and continued towards the restaurant.

"If you are not willing to cooperate with us, then I will have no choice but to arrest you."

Beckett raised his voice slightly, but the other party had no intention of turning back and instead put a hand into his arms.

"Hey, if I were you, I would never turn my back to the police and make such a dangerous move." Jack stepped out from the side, put one hand on the man's arm, and pinched his elbow with the other.

"FBI, identify yourself."

Although the guy's movement of reaching into his arms didn't look like he was pulling out a gun, Jack didn't mind letting him have a long memory, and his fingers slightly After exerting force, the man cried out in pain, and the object in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter, but it was a black wallet.

Seeing that Jack was controlling him, Cassel took two steps forward to pick up the wallet on the ground. He was surprised to find that after opening it, a blue badge with gold background appeared on it.

"I am Leonard Maloney, Special Investigator of the State Attorney's Office. Let me go." The man struggled for a while but failed to break free. He hurriedly identified himself and his attitude was no longer as arrogant as before.

"What is going on?"

"We are investigating the murder of Dr. Monroe and hope you will cooperate." Jack let go of the man's arm and took it from Cassel's hand handed the certificate back to him.

Leonard Maloney rubbed his sore arms with a shocked expression on his face, "What murder? You mean Valerie is dead?"

"She and What's the relationship?" Cassel asked.

"She works for me, working undercover." The special investigator's answer made the three of them look at each other.

——

"I'll treat you to lunch. I'm sorry for hurting you just now." The three of them sat down in the restaurant, and Jack said to this man named Leonard Maloney The special investigator apologized.

The latter gently rubbed the numb tendons on his arm with a frightened expression. He still doesn't understand how he was restrained by a move just now.

“Your hand is so strong, I almost thought this arm didn’t belong to me.”

Although he complained like this, Leonard Maloney did not express too much displeasure. At the moment, he was more concerned about the murder of Dr. Monroe.

“That’s about it.” Cassel briefly described the bizarre circumstances surrounding the discovery of Dr. Monroe’s body, and then sighed.

“A beautiful female doctor secretly lurks around a notorious drug lord, it’s like the plot of an Alfred Hitchcock movie.”

“Drug Lord ?" Leonard Maloney looked like what are you talking about? He stopped cutting the steak in his hands.

"Caesar Calderon, isn't he? The target of your investigation." Beckett was a little surprised why he had such an expression.

"Calderon?" Leonard Maloney almost laughed out loud, "Calderon is not a subject that I can investigate at my level, and I heard that he has been away from the drug trade for many years."

Who is the target of his investigation? Jack asked the DEA. It has been almost 20 years since Calderon was cleared and came to shore. New drug lords of his level are emerging one after another. It really makes no sense that he is still being watched. "It's the county hospital. The state comptroller suspects them of misappropriation of funds, medical fraud and equipment theft." The investigator's answer surprised the three.

Cassell even changed the tone of his voice, "Medical fraud?"

The reason for his excitement was obviously not because he was happy, but because he was too disappointed. The size of the county hospital Just like that, how can a mere medical fraud case be compared with a secret investigation of a major drug lord.

However, Leonard Maloney obviously did not quite understand the disappointment of the great writer, and continued to explain, "Yes, we could not find any evidence, so we found Dr. Monroe and asked her to assist in internal response."

You can’t investigate a medical fraud case and still kill someone, right? The three of them couldn't help but look at each other. Baker calmed down and asked, "Did she find anything?"

"No." Although the steak in the restaurant tasted good, after hearing the bad news about Dr. Monroe, the investigation The reporter was bored, "But just the day before yesterday, she suddenly called me and said she wanted to see me."

Finally, they were connected. Beckett took out the photo taken by the surveillance camera from the information bag and gave it to He looked.

“Yes, I went to the hospital to meet her.” Leonard Maloney nodded to confirm that he was the one in the photo. “She told me that she found something suspicious and that the hospital was probably there. There is a secret chain of interests

But she wanted to go north over the weekend to confirm everything before testifying. ”

“North? Cassel's eyes lit up and he turned to look at Jack and Beckett, "Do you still remember the browsing history on Dr. Monroe's phone?" She looked up hotels in Katonah, New York, a town just north. "

——

"There is nothing in the town of Cokatona. "Back at the 12th Precinct, everyone looked at the map of New York State for a long time and fell into deep thought.

Katonah Town is less than 60 kilometers north of New York, under the jurisdiction of Westchester The county is one of the wealthier counties around New York

However, the population of this town is not large. The wealthy people all live in large villas in the surrounding countryside. Apart from an art museum, the only thing left is the charming rural scenery that Kassel said.

Jack poured himself a cup of coffee and found an empty desk to sit down. "There is Bedford Mountain there. I remember the last time I went there, there was a man who was eager to save his daughter. The father kidnapped the daughter of a super rich man. He put himself and the rich man's daughter in an underground safe room that was more difficult to break through than a prison. "

" Wait, prison?" Beckett stood up from his seat, walked quickly to the map, and pointed at a certain place, "There is a women's prison next to Bedford Hill, could it be related to that place?" br>
When Cassell heard this word, he immediately became energetic. He raised his hand to sign up with a shy face, "If you want to go to a women's prison, count me in!"

Beckett responded with a big eye roll, "There's no need at all. I'm going to call the prison now and ask them to send over the prisoner list and the visitor records in the past six months."

Cassel suddenly Losing energy, "If it's a matter of reviewing the list, then I'll withdraw first."

Jack obviously doesn't intend to let the great writer go like this, "Today is already Friday, and my holiday is In these days, Beckett has to wait until the case is over before he can ask for leave.

Of course, if you plan to give up the trip to Las Vegas just like this"

"I will stay to help. ." Cassel sat back numbly.
