Chapter 400

On the spot investigation, it can be determined whether the water brought Wendy's body or whether it was directly thrown.

If it's a man-made body tossing, whether it's thrown on the beach and swept into the sea, or whether it's directly driven to the sea, these will make the direction of investigation different.

They went to the yellow tape. This is the place where the female body was picked up.

Take out the photos of the scene on the file. They look at the sea where the body of the woman was found. Luke said, "the current is coming from that side." He pointed to the other side.

The two men walked hundreds of meters on the beach, crossed a small raised slope, and looked at the other side. They were speechless.

On the other side of Xiaopo, a series of villas hundreds of meters away are by the sea.

Selena took a look at the map and said, "it's a villa area. There are at least forty or fifty households."

Luke held his forehead with his hands: "that is to say, we have to go through it one by one?"

Selena looked at the map and suddenly said, "I think it's better to find a special seafood restaurant for lunch?"

Luke: huh It's only after ten in the morning. It's early for lunch.

Selena zoomed in on the map on the tablet and held it out in front of him. "Look what's here."

Luke looked at the beach where they had come from. There were several restaurants there.

Luke raised his eyebrows. "Are you sure they have special seafood?"

Selena: maybe there's a lobster

Luke laughed. "Let's go. If there is, we'll have lunch."

They got back on the bus, drove back for a kilometer or two, slowed down and looked at the roadside restaurant.

Among several restaurants of no lower grade, Greer was quickly identified.

Selena said with a smile, "how is it?"

Luke nodded, "this is the house."

On a small sign outside Greer's restaurant, it read prominently: today's special seafood - Boston lobster.

In fact, this kind of lobster is Maine lobster, not from Boston, but from Canada to North America.

"Boston lobster. It's the best choice for grilling and cheese." He said something.

Selena's saliva came out: "ah, let's not talk about this topic, we are here to investigate."

Luke doesn't torture some food either. They go in and find a waitress.

After showing the police badge, I showed her the picture of the dead woman: "have you seen this lady?"

The waitress glanced and smiled, "of course, Ms. Wendy will be here once in a week or two."

Luke: is she alone

The waitress paused, but looking at Luke's smiling face, she said, "no, it's Mr. Swick, a gentleman with great manners."

Lucerne looked at each other. "They're together every time?"

Waitress: "almost, but Mr. Swick occasionally comes to dinner alone."

Luke thought for a moment and asked, "do you remember the night before yesterday when these two came here for dinner?"

The waitress nodded, "remember, they're my table."

Luke: so what's wrong with them? For example, quarrels and so on. "

The waitress shook her head. "No, they've been on a good relationship, at least that's what I saw."

Luke said, "after that, they left together?"

The waitress shook her head. "No, Ms. Wendy left by herself in our boat. Mr. Swick drives his own car. However, Ms. Wendy has not returned our ship since she left. "

Luke and his wife couldn't help but look at each other again: "what ship?"

The waitress pointed to the seaside wharf: "it's the boat we provide for our guests to go to the seaside temporarily."

When they looked there, they found that it was a kind of white boat with green sides, similar to that of ordinary anglers, with two or three people in general.

After thinking about it, he continued, "what about this Mr. Swick?"

A moment later, Luke and his wife got the address of Mr. Swick. He smiled and said to the waitress, "please reserve a place for us. We will come for lunch later. I hope you can serve us."

The waitress's smile was even brighter, knowing that she would get a tip later.

The man who had been dining with Wendy for a long time, all named Philip Swick, lived in the villa area that Luke and his wife had just seen.

Luke looks at Selena. "Do you think of anything?"

Selena sat on the copilot and drew several lines on the tablet: "is that right?"

On the flat-panel map, the restaurant is connected to the home of Swick in the villa area. Wendy's name appears on the surface of a small boat with a simple stroke, floating on the sea, but with a question mark added at the back.

Luke looked and nodded. "It's almost like that. It depends on where Wendy died."

An hour later, the two men came out of the villa area. They were silent for a while. Selena couldn't help asking, "do you think what he said is true?"Luke: "I don't know. We've seen a lot of good criminals. The sadness of crying does not mean that he is innocent. "

Selena smacked, smacked and said, "I don't think he killed Wendy, just to say how he felt."

Luke didn't contradict her. After all, she said it, just feeling, not judging.

In the face of Philip Swick, the temperament is good, and it's really easy to get people's favor.

But Wendy's husband, it seems A little pitiful!

In the conversation just now, Mr. Swick was honest and told them that he and Wendy were in a relationship, and they were both separated from each other, waiting for divorce, and then they would be together.

That night he was really with Wendy. Wendy sailed to his place. After the two were intimate, Wendy sailed away again.

Selena wondered at the time, "why don't you drive back together?"

Swick looked sad: "she didn't want to be seen driving to my house. Every time she drove her own boat. You know, she's not divorced yet. "

Luke and his wife looked at each other at that time. Thinking that Wendy's husband had passed three days, they didn't call the police to say that his wife was missing, and the relationship between them was not very good.

Luke said, "let's go along the coast and see if we can find the boat. Maybe that's the first crime scene. "

Neither did they drive, and they searched for it directly along the coast road.

Forty minutes later, Luke and Selena stood on a grassy bank and looked at one of the boats hidden in it: "well, there's at least one thing we can check."

There is also a dry blood along the ship.

Luke found the boat by the smell of blood.

It's windy here, but the boat is a constant source of smell. Luke found it 50 meters away.

That's Wendy's smell.
