Detective Luke

Chapter 20. Who is he?

The next morning.

On a bus to the airport.

Luke sighed. “What a bad woman

Davy said, “I knew that the first week I was transferred to robbery homicide.”

“You've known each other that long?” Luke was surprised. Davy had been there for three or four years.

Davy pouted. “She was in internal affairs.”

“We're different. I'm not a jerk like you.”

“You too, lazy.”

Luke looked out the window at the Blue Ocean. “Have you ever been to Vegas?”

“Yeah, Lindsay and I went there for our honeymoon.”

"Sorry, I shouldn't mention ..."

"It's all over, people always face reality."

Luke held a hint, "Do we have a chance to play with two?"

"Don't think about it, get off the plane and go to Tony's hometown to investigate, and there is no chance to enter the city at all."

"COMEON, we will be unattended in the foreign army. After the investigation, we can relax, just travel, you can't go for nothing."

David pointed to his eyes. "It seems that you still don't know Susan. She is not so confused, and she will always keep up with our schedule. Even if you go, you will be bold and you can't play happily."

Luke laughed, "It turns out that you are also afraid of people."

"Yeah, I would rather be the captain, and I don't want her."

"Jingle Bell……"

Luke's phone rang, and glanced at Susan's mobile phone number. "She won't install an eavesdropper on us?"

Davy looked out the window

Luke pressed answer. “Captain.”

“Where are you now?”

“On the train to LAX.”

“You don't have to go to the airport. Go back to the police station.”

Luke wondered, “Why?”

“Tony is dead.”

“DEAD! When?”

“Twenty years ago.”

Luke smiled. “I didn't know you could joke, Captain.”

“I don't kid. I called the Nevada and Clark County Police in Neda and asked them to look into Tony. Will's file. They found Tony. Will's death certificate and contacted Tony. Will's father confirmed that Tony Weir died in a car accident 20 years ago.”

Luke was confused. “So who are we looking for? He's been living here his whole life.”

“It's still under investigation. We'll talk about it when you get back,” Susan said, hanging up the phone.

Davy asked, “What happened?”

“What the hell.”

......

Detective Department.

Robbery homicide division.

Luke put her bag on her desk. “Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on? If it hadn't been for the accident, I'd be on a plane right now.”

The lieutenant said, “You didn't want to go in the first place, did you? You Got Your Wish.”

“That's not true, lieutenant. I've packed my bags and told my mom I won't Be Home Tonight,” Luke said, spreading his palms. “Now that I'm homeless, can I crash at Your House?”

The lieutenant laughed. “Don't even think about it.”

“Creak...” the door to the captain's office opened.

“We're all here. Let me tell you about the Clark County Police investigation,” Susan said as she set a stack of papers on her desk, “The Clark County Police found the death certificate of Tony Will and the family of Tony Will to confirm that the real Tony Will died in a car accident 20 years ago.”

Jenny said. “That means the unsub used Tony Will's fake identity to buy the gun.”

Susan shook his head, “It's not that simple. There's a Tony. Will, both using the same social security number, has lived here for at least a decade as a Los Angeles resident with a driver's license, medical records and a record of d**g addiction

“Tony Will's identity can be divided into two stages,” Luke says. “The first stage was twenty years ago when Tony Will, who had been living with his family in Nevada, died in a car accident.

Later, his identity was assumed by the man now known as Tony. Will.

In other words, the unsub was impersonating someone 20 years ago.”

The faces of the people present changed a little, if the suspect is using a fake identity, it is easier to find out.

But a suspect who used a fake identity 20 years ago had enough time to erase any trace of his real identity.

It's horrible.

Who the hell is he?

Frowning, Jenny asked, “If the real Tony Will is dead and the death certificate has been issued, why is the Social Security number being used?”

The lieutenant said, “You're ignoring the question of time.

Now that the Internet is developed and information is shared, the chances of this happening are small.

But this happened 20 years ago, when information networks were less developed and it was difficult to be transparent between states.”

Luke went on to analyze, “If the suspect who bought the modified Taser is not the real Tony,” he said. Will, that means he's still a real person. The police are looking for Tony. Will, if he were to switch back, we would never find him.”

Markus grinned. “I'll be damned. A man who's been living under a false identity for twenty years, who knows who he really is, is a horrible person.”

The lieutenant ignored Markus's words. “Luke certainly had a point, but it's not clear why the unsub was living under someone else's identity 20 years ago.

I think from personal experience, his original identity should be in question, it is likely that he is a wanted criminal.”

“Even if the suspect has a criminal record,” Luke said, “It's been 20 years since the local police have relaxed their investigation.

It's still possible that the unsub turned to old friends and relatives, like the rich man who visits him every year.”

Susan concludes, “Let's retrace our steps and focus our investigation on the real identity of Tony Will. A fake is a fake, and no matter how hard he tries to hide it, he's going to leave a trail.

Okay, let's split up.”

With that, Susan returned to the captain's office.

The lieutenant pursed his lips. “Nice speech.”

Davy smiled. “What do you have in mind, Lieutenant?”

The lieutenant pulled back his thinning silver hair with a comb. “As we suspected, the suspect assumed the identity of Tony Will, which means he may have a criminal record.

Twenty years ago, it would have been 2002. The suspect probably committed the crime that year or earlier.

We can look at criminal records from 2002 and see if there are any unsolved or wanted suspects, especially for taser robberies.”

Luke raised his head slightly. Although the old man was old, he was good at investigating cases.
