Legendary FBI Detective-Chapter 179: Post-Event Gains and the True Nature of the Case - Part 2

Gary Thompson's reason for killing the female prison guard, Jin Mola, and the NYPD's Qian Baisi was due to a woman named Brill.

Brill was Big Beard's sister, and grew up together with Gary, also coming from the David Sect.

A few months ago, Brill was arrested and jailed, facing minor charges, and was recently released from prison.

However, not long after her release, she was killed by NYPD officers on the spot for attacking someone with a gun in public, and her body was sent to the morgue.

The NYPD officer who put an end to Brill's life was Qian Baisi, who also received the aforementioned administrative leave for his actions.

The female prison guard, Jin Mola-Kara, was the one whom Brill often claimed to have abused her while in prison.

Whether actual abuse took place is unknown, but Big Beard chose to believe his sister unconditionally.

When Gary reached out for his help, Big Beard immediately agreed.

As a condition for his assistance, after Big Beard helped Gary kill the judge and lawyers, Gary was expected to help Big Beard kill Qian Baisi and the female prison guard…

Luo An took out his phone to help Old Haley contact the community service organization of this neighborhood. After a brief conversation with Mona and Old Haley, they both stood up and left the house.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Mona held her laptop with a sigh:

"Luo An, I think this story could totally be made into a movie."

Greed, revenge, killing, cults, gunfights, grudges spanning generations... The elements were far too numerous.

"Maybe."

Turning the steering wheel, Luo An drove the SUV back towards the Jacob Federation Building. He didn't have much thought about this story; the world always has more twisted tales.

Seeing Luo An's lack of interest, Mona pouted and muttered under her breath. Then, suddenly remembering something, she asked excitedly:

"Luo An, do you think if I adapt this case into a screenplay and pitch it to Hollywood, there's a chance I could sell it for a high price to one of those major film companies?"

"What? Are you serious?"

Seeing the gleam of gold in Mona's eyes, Luo An's mouth twitched, and he quickly said:

"Don't forget the FBI's rules about keeping case details confidential."

"I know~"

Mona rubbed her face and mumbled:

"I was just saying."

Mona was a little short on cash lately, which was why she was entertaining such wild thoughts.

Carefully observing Mona to be sure she was just joking, Luo An let out a sigh of relief.

Mona had been warned several times by Augustus for frequently hacking into other places and causing trouble using her computer.

But these were minor issues; Mona's skills were all focused on computers, and for Augustus, it was just a matter of scolding her.

——

Area of the Team Five Investigation Unit.

With Old Haley's testimony, Mona and Reesi took "Jorgen Landry" to the forensics department for identity verification.

The verification was only to present more evidence in court.

Faced with a criminal like Gary Thompson, a cultist + murderer + someone who used a rocket launcher against the NYPD and FBI, the judge's verdict was going to be severe without a doubt.

Of course, all the follow-up work for the case, such as collecting evidence, writing reports, contacting the judge, etc., had nothing to do with Luo An anymore.

Right now, he was sitting at his desk, intently fiddling with his new computer.

After the recent "Wealthy Woman's Disappearance" case, Mr. Warren sent ten laptops to the Team Five Investigation Unit.

However, the laptop meant for Luo An was snatched by Mona as soon as it arrived.

So the current scene in Team Five's office area was Reesi, William, and others, each using a new desktop and a new laptop.

Luo An only had one new desktop.

And in front of Mona were a new desktop and two new laptops.

"..."

Looking at Mona's ten fingers dancing across the keyboards of three computers, Luo An was speechless.

Don't your fingers get tired?

And, Reesi next to you, why are you swallowing your saliva again?

Just then, Augustus, who had been missing for a while, pushed open the door of Investigation Team Five and walked in, shouting loudly:

"Luo An! Come to my office!"

"Yes, Chief!"

Luo An immediately stood up and strode into the team leader's office.

Wondering what reward this case would bring him this time.

"Sit."

Augustus tossed the folder in his hand into Luo An's arms and plopped down into an old chair.

It was an old chair, unlike the new ones that other agents had, and it was all because of Luo An.

Because the night before last, while chasing a gray pickup, Luo An "accidentally" crashed into a pedestrian's garden fence and doghouse…

Luo An casually promised Augustus that he would change his ways and that it absolutely wouldn't happen again, and then he lowered his head to open the folder in his hands.

Just as Luo An expected, inside the folder was proof of the bonus distribution for all members of Investigation Team Five and a doubling of his personal bonus.

The usual bonus was 1,500 US dollars, doubled it was 3,000.

Equivalent to a senior agent's monthly salary.

Not only that, but the 200,000 US dollar reward offered by the Long Island Government for the "Seaside Serial Pit Murders" would also be deposited into Luo An's account before the end of today's workday.

Looking at the number 203,000 US dollars, Luo An's mouth cracked into a smile, he lifted his head, and shouted:

"Thank you, Chief!"

"No need to thank me."

Augustus waved his hand; he just hoped that Luo An would cause less destruction on the next mission.

When Luo An first joined Investigation Team Five, it was just the use of a few stun grenades, which wasn't a big deal and within what Augustus could tolerate.

But last night's fence and doghouse...

Augustus picked up the new coffee from the desk, took a sip, and felt slightly relieved.

Luo An had already promised to be more careful in the future, and with his usually steady performance, such incidents hopefully wouldn't happen again… right?

After swallowing the coffee in his mouth, Augustus took out another folder and handed it to Luo An:

"This is the bounty for the two cultists you killed the other night."

"Hm?"

Luo An was slightly stunned; seeing this, Augustus explained with a smile:

"Those two guys have been committing crimes for years, but they've remained active until now due to the remnants of the David Sect assisting them, and their low profile; some department at the FBI didn't search for them very thoroughly.

This money is the bounty from that particular FBI department.

The head of that department thought this money would be taken by their own people, but unexpectedly, you got your hands on it."

The bounty for each member of Big Beard's trio was 30,000 US dollars, but since one of them was killed by three SWAT officers, Luo An could only get 60,000 US dollars.

But 60,000 dollars is not a small amount either.

Adding the earlier 203,000, Luo An calculated that he had made a total of 263,000 US dollars from solving this case.

Luo An's eyes shone with anticipation, thinking if he could make this much money from every case, plus the Apple stocks he had bought before...

He set a small goal for himself, to make a hundred million before the age of thirty-five!

Seeing the golden $$ in Luo An's eyes, Augustus' mouth twitched, and after chatting briefly with Luo An, he waved him out of the office.

As soon as he left the team leader's office and reached the front of the office area, Mona and Reesi cast questioning glances at Luo An.
