Chapter 1200 The murder of Beckett’s mother (last day for double monthly pass, please come again)
Although he didn't have much memory of the plot of Beckett's mother's case, Jack at least remembered that a big shot seemed to be involved in the end.
Therefore, out of caution, he persuaded the other friends to stay in Margrave and chose one person to return to New York first.
Although it was unlikely, if something went wrong on their side, both Jiejie and Hannah would have channels to contact the appropriate people for help.
Although it is not advisable for Calabash Baby to save his grandfather, there is also a saying that you can advance to attack or retreat to defend. Nowadays, Jack has no friendship with the dirty gangsters. He has some connections in both the military and the intelligence community.
In addition, Zoe, a newly promoted female senator, although her footing is not stable now, she can be regarded as someone in the political world.
So under normal circumstances, as long as Jack doesn't think twice about assassinating the president and is caught on the spot, not to mention walking around in North America, at least there shouldn't be too many people willing to take the initiative to provoke him.
The person who came to pick him up at the airport was Danny Regan. Although this tough guy police detective had a more obvious hairline, he looked pretty good.
The previous foot injury indirectly caused this guy to take a long vacation. Now his waist is no longer sore, his legs are no longer painful, and he no longer walks in circles. Even the big black eye bags have disappeared a lot, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
"So what happened?" Jack was still traveling lightly. Since he was going back to New York, he even threw a change of clothes to Hannah before getting on the plane, and walked out of the airport with one hand in his pocket.
Danny's car was replaced by a Wrangler Jeep with a square head and a square head, which suited his image of a tough guy. After putting on his seat belt, he sighed and started the car.
"To be honest, I still don't understand what happened. Your friends in the 12th Precinct and the writer are all tight-lipped about the cause of Superintendent Roy Montgomery's death and vague about what happened that night. It's just that He insisted that he died in the line of duty.
My dad is very angry about this and wants you to take over the investigation yourself. ”
"Thank Frank for me, I will give him an explanation later." Jack said, taking out his cell phone and sending a message to Cassel, asking him to meet with Beckett.
Although Danny said that his father was very angry, Director Reagan obviously helped in this matter, at least helping to suppress the Internal Affairs Department.
The report stated that Superintendent Roy Montgomery was unfortunately shot while chasing a fugitive named Hal Lockwood the night before and died in a helicopter hangar in the suburbs of Long Island.
In addition to the superintendent himself, the bodies of four gunmen were left at the scene, including the fugitive named Hal Lockwood.
After an on-site inspection by the NYPD forensics team, it was confirmed that all four gunmen were killed by Detective Montgomery's sidearm and an old police revolver hidden in his left ankle holster.
No one knows exactly what happened at the scene, although reports claim that Superintendent Montgomery was chasing the fugitive Hal Lockwood when a shootout broke out and both parties ended up dead.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that something is wrong in this matter. It makes no sense that not only did the police officer personally hunt down the fugitive, but the situation was so urgent that he didn't even have time to put on a bulletproof vest, and he also appeared alone in the hangar in the middle of the night.
Beckett and Cassel were the first to appear at the scene after the accident. Before contacting Cassel, they submitted some relevant case information to Frank at Jack's request. The NYPD chief immediately realized what was going on. Something's wrong.
Fortunately, Frank looked out for Jack's sake and helped suppress the case, or deal with it temporarily, otherwise Beckett would not be sitting in Jack's kitchen eating noodles and crying, but would be invited by the NYPD Internal Affairs Department. Went for coffee. After frying two soft-boiled eggs to add to the couple next to him, Kevin and Esposito were obviously insiders and participants this time. Jack knocked on the table and looked at the four people in front of him with a straight face.
"Which of you is willing to speak first and tell me what happened?"
The four of them looked at me, and I looked at you. Finally, the eyes of the other three fell on Cassel.
"Why me?" Mr. Writer was surprised.
"Of course it's because of your profession." Jack waved his hand to signal him to stop talking nonsense and explain quickly.
It can only be said that Cassell's words were as sharp as his pen. It took only one hour to explain the whole matter clearly.
The story started with a gang member's home invasion and murder case they handled last year.
At that time, an Irish gang member named Jack Coonan was assassinated. He belonged to a declining old-school Irish gang active around Hell's Kitchen.
This alliance, called the Western Alliance, prohibits any drug dealers except "American herbal medicine" from appearing on its territory, but recently someone has been selling heroin there.
Jack Coonan is the strongest thug in the Western Gang Alliance. He was ordered by his boss to eradicate drug dealers who violated taboos. So after he found the evidence, he contacted the FBI, but he did not expect to be counterattacked and was killed by the drug dealers in advance. mouth.
Dramatically, the man behind the drug dealer was actually Jack Coonan's brother, Dick Coonan.

On the surface, this ruthless guy is a businessman and philanthropist, but in fact, since he retired from the army, he has been using his former connections to process poppies grown in Afghanistan into heroin, transport it to an East Asian international port, and then package it into advertisements The tapes were later shipped to New York.
In order to cover up the truth, Dick Cunanan killed his own brother.
When forensic doctor Lanny examined the wound of the deceased, she accidentally discovered special stab marks, which were exactly the same as the wounds left on Beckett's mother after she was murdered.
As a result, Cassel and Beckett discovered the third secret identity of Dick Cunanan. He was once a professional killer named Rathbone, and he was also the real murderer of Beckett's mother 19 years ago.
Of course, he was just following orders, and the real mastermind behind the scenes was someone else. However, because Dick Cunanan tried to kidnap Cassel and escaped from the police station, he was accidentally shot and killed by Beckett, causing this clue to be interrupted.
Beckett's mother was murdered in an alley more than ten years ago. Her death was the driving force behind Beckett's determination to become a police officer.
After so many years, Beckett had almost given up hope of finding out the truth. Unexpectedly, Dick Coonan, the murderer, unexpectedly appeared after many years.
However, God seemed to have deliberately made a bad joke. He had already sent the murderer to Beckett, but at the last moment, he forced her to shoot Dick Coonan and closed the door to the truth with his own hands.
