Chapter 424: Chapter 250: Big Case, Unexpected Gain_2

Of course, the main reason was still Brian, this BUG.

The operations department, to put it bluntly, served as a training ground for some less talented second-generation members of certain families within NW.

Placing Brian, a Second-level Staff here, was completely an act of suppression.

"Don’t worry about why the case landed in our hands, let’s go, Green."

Brian picked up his suit jacket and began walking towards the exit.

"Wait for me, Boss Brian!"

Green hurriedly followed him.

Indeed.

No matter why the case was assigned to their team.

With Boss Brian around, there was no problem!

...

There were more than thirty bodies, and their team’s crime scene investigation van couldn’t fit them all.

The two simply drove a sedan instead.

The car belonged to Green.

This guy had changed cars again.

Green had also installed a siren device on his newly purchased sedan, leaving it on the passenger seat.

"Why did you buy this?"

Brian asked curiously.

This sort of thing is usually equipped for patrol officers; private ownership is illegal.

Of course, Green had an official staff identity, which met the usage standards, but staff from the operations department usually didn’t like to keep such things in their cars and generally didn’t need them.

Driving the car and looking straight ahead, Green began to explain:

"In recent months, the death rate of LAPD officers has already surpassed that of the previous year.

The police union had major complaints, so the higher-ups gave LAPD a major upgrade.

They’ve equipped many patrol cars with new gear, I heard even individual connected micro vehicle computers for GPS navigation and coordination with the central system, marking emergency locations, and so forth.

Oh right.

Also, new bullet-proof vests and firearms regulations.

Since it was all free, I just went and got a set for myself; the trunk has a special shotgun that uses cross bullets powerful enough to shatter steel plates as thick as a pinky finger.

I tried it, and it’s indeed very powerful."

Hearing this, something clicked in Brian’s mind: "Are you saying that the police force has loosened firearm regulations?"

He was quite keen to get a legal Fire God Cannon.

With his physical build, various talents, and the exaggerated firepower and impact of the Fire God Cannon, even a terminator would be blown away.

Green nodded:

"They’ve relaxed them quite a bit.

The principle is to ensure the safety of the officers on duty.

Robust firepower is essential.

I heard the government will also install a device called a ’gunshot detector’ around the city, so if a gun is fired somewhere, the central dispatch will automatically receive an alert and send nearby patrol officers to check it out..."

Green was always well-informed.

For the rest of the ride, he continued to share many changes that Brian hadn’t been aware of.

After more than half an hour.

A large number of vehicles parked along the road caught their attention.

They had arrived at the scene of the incident.

...

This area was located at a highway fork.

There were a few small towns not far away.

The camper van was found in a forest by the side of the town and the road, so it was discovered early in the morning by townspeople heading to the city for work.

Green drove the car directly to the edge of the forest.

Several police cars were still parked here.

Beside the police cars was a bus, surrounded by police tape, similar to a school bus but painted with lots of colorful designs, giving it a cheerful look.

Several officers were moving in and out and taking pictures.

Nearby, several crying men and women were kept behind the isolation tape, unable to approach.

Inquisitive reporters, armed with long and short cameras, were already aiming at the scene.

The death of more than thirty people at once, even in these times of frequent homicides, was still major news.

Brian even spotted some foreign correspondents stationed in Los Angeles from the logos on their equipment, clearly journalists from major media organizations.

It was foreseeable that if this case was not handled well, LAPD would face significant public scrutiny.

...

Outside the forest, someone was already waiting for Brian and Green’s arrival.

A middle-aged white man with a potbelly, seeing Brian and Green getting out of the car, ran over as if seeing his own father: "Hello, I’m Jilder, the police chief of the Jiao Town Public Safety Office, are you the investigators sent over from NW operations department?"

"Yes, I’m Brian, and this is my assistant, Green. Let’s discuss the details of the case," Brian nodded.

Jilder wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Let’s talk while walking, the victims’ bodies are further inside the forest."

The three of them were about to head inside.

In the distance, a tall, thin white man, seizing the moment when a few patrol officers were not paying attention, suddenly rushed over, shouting to Brian: "Mr. Brian, I have something important to discuss with you!"

Smack—

Before he could finish his sentence.

He was swiftly pinned to the ground by two strong and muscular patrol officers.

Appearing embarrassed.

One of the officers scolded the man while pinning him down with a standard hold on his back, while the other quickly frisked the man.

Brian looked and did not recognize the man.

However, the man could call out his name...

After a moment’s pause, he told the two officers: "Let him go, let him come over."

Jilder quickly added: "Listen to Investigator Brian."

The two officers then reluctantly pulled the man up from the ground.

The skinny tall man appeared weak, his face was red from the brief pressure, and upon standing, his body was somewhat unsteady, breathing heavily.

After catching his breath.

He approached Brian with considerable agitation: "Mr. Brian, you may not know me, but I am an employee at the Aiden Research Institute, my name is Alpha."
