Carlock has a rough appearance and a very carefree personality. When he heard Lance's praise, he immediately laughed, "That's right! When he first came, I thought he might leave in a few days as a forest ranger. , I didn’t expect to persevere.” He patted Jesse’s shoulder again as if sighing, “I also exercise with me and work very responsibly. Nowadays, there are few young people who can endure loneliness.”

He looked like he already regarded Jesse as a junior whom he valued.

Lance raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes turned on Jesse's exposed muscles and his own arms, Carlock also noticed Lance's movements, and smiled again, "You are a little worse than Jesse." ah!"

Gordon leaned forward, clasped his hands, and showed a faint smile to Carlock, "Confirm again, you didn't hear any strange movements two nights ago, right?"

Carlock's smile slowly faded, "Yes, I woke up once in the middle of the night, and Jesse didn't sleep at that time, and we didn't hear anything."

Gordon nodded, then greeted Lance and the two were ready to leave.

Before leaving, Lance suddenly looked at the bow and arrow hanging on the wall, and suddenly smiled, "I thought the forest ranger would bring a shotgun, but there are still bows and arrows here?"

Carlock followed Lance's gaze and didn't pay attention, shrugging his shoulders, "It's my Christmas present for Jesse, but he can't be accurate, and he only brought me back a hare for so long, here .” He said and pointed to the other wall with his thick fingers, “The rabbit tail is left.”

Jesse rubbed his head in embarrassment, his short brown hair was scrunched up by himself, and he looked a little harmless.

Lance's eyes lit up, "It's pretty cute."

Leaving the ranger's hut, Lance looked back again. Carlock and Jesse were no longer there, only the hound named Bossy was lying at the door, his eyes were closed as if he was sleeping peacefully, but he shook occasionally. The ear shows its alertness.

"What do you see?" Gordon stretched out his hand to cover his eyes again, as if he was really troubled by the glare of the sun.

Lance's face was also wrinkled. "It's not easy to arrest people directly. I have seen blood on that set of bows and arrows before. It is useless to take it back for identification. It may not be possible to take it back."

A thousand words have no proof.

"And he seems to work hard, lives in a remote area, has no conflicts with people in the small town, and there are no rumors about him in the local area. If you arrest this kind of person at will, if you don't have strong evidence, you will It caused unnecessary trouble." Lance reached out and rubbed his left eye, "In this case, we should find evidence and let the sheriff order the arrest."

Gordon nodded in agreement.

After the two returned to the police station, Lance used his strengths and put on a cute smile to get close to the sheriff.The sheriff of this small town has been working on the post for more than 30 years, and his grade is not too young. He can't stand the enthusiasm of young people like this.

A sane heart was soon lost in the little compliments Lance had received from Garcia for the highlights of the Sheriff's few accomplishments.

"I also read the newspapers when I came here. I admire you for protecting the mayor in that terrible attack 20 years ago." Lance and the sheriff lightly touched the cup, although the cup was full of coffee , but that's not what the two cared about, "To be able to come forward in that terrible situation You didn't even have a weapon at the time."

The arc of the sheriff's mouth was straightened, and he said with a serious face that he just did what the sheriff should do, protecting the safety of citizens, even the mayor was the same in his eyes.

"You are such a responsible and good person, now there is such a vicious incident in the town, alas" Lance sighed and looked at his colleagues, "JJ told me at dinner last night You haven't had a good rest for several days because of this case, and now you are black and blue."

The sheriff quickly sat up straight, looked at the beautiful blonde who was passing documents, "Yes, it's Miss Jenifer, right, she is a serious and responsible girl."

"We came to your town, and we don't really know it well, but my colleagues and I believe that with a sheriff like you, the residents in this town are good people." Lance was a little embarrassed, "If the murderer If you are a foreigner, it will be difficult."

The sheriff's lips moved, and then he sighed, "Although I don't want to say that about the child, not everyone in the town has a good heart, but there is a system that restrains them."

Very well, Lance said that he was interested in these people with bad hearts, but he didn't show it on his face, he just continued, "Gordon and I are going to see the scene where the body was found today, but the forest seems It's quite big, so I didn't go deep and just sat with the ranger."

"Oh, ranger, it's Carlock, he was ridiculous when he was young, but now he is a responsible ranger." The sheriff took another sip of coffee, "I also watched him grow up."

Lance raised his eyebrows, "Where's Mr. Griffin?"

"Mr... Griffin?" The sheriff seemed to be stunned, and it took him a while to remember, shaking his head, "He is not a local, he came to town a few years ago, and said it belonged to Mrs. Johnson The distant nephew, it is said that he came here because he was kicked out by his family and had no place to go. Old Mrs. Johnson is a good old man, and she also needs young people to help her do things she can't do."

"After the old Mrs. Johnson passed away, he inherited her house, her garden, and everything about her." The sheriff fell into memory, "Although he ran to become a forest ranger, and Carlock praised him a lot, but...he With a little quirk, I don't think he'd be a good ranger."

"It doesn't hurt to have a little hobby." Lance touched his nose, "I really like candy."

"Hahahahaha!" The sheriff smiled undisguisedly this time, and looked at Lance with a different kind of sympathy, "You often run around, and you must have met a lot of weird people."

"I just joined the team." Lance's smile froze slightly.

"As for him, he is a nature lover." The sheriff nodded at the table, "I saw him when I first lived in the old Mrs. Not for crowds."

Lance looked puzzled, "That little habit?"

"He likes to eat leaves, not the tea made, but the leaves in the forest. Although this kind of thing can bring benefits to people in the wild, you know, although some people like perfumes that smell like trees, they don't How many people would go to the forest every day to pick leaves and cook them for drinking.” The sheriff waved his hand, “It doesn’t matter whether it’s spring, autumn, winter, summer, rain or shine, I even suspected that he wanted to be a forest ranger because he wanted to pick them every day by raising his hand.” want."

Reid was looking at the information. People in the town lived in a relatively primitive way. There was only one bank in the town. People in the town also shopped in cash, and they rarely asked for receipts.

This provides a very favorable obstacle to Garcia's elimination work.

"According to the characteristics of the three victims, the overlapping points are too few and common, and it is difficult to find the entry point." Morgan put the materials aside and rubbed his temples.

Emily picked up the information and spoke weakly, "The three victims had penetrating injuries. The identification should be caused by bows and arrows. Although the limbs of the No. 1 female victim... emmm are not complete, but they penetrated the abdomen. The second The first male victim was also pierced through the abdomen, and the latest one was also a male victim. Garcia's background investigation revealed that the three victims were all tourists from other places, passing through the town, and there was not much overlap in their occupations. In terms of age, one is 22 years old, one is 25 years old, and the other is 45 years old!"

"It doesn't look like a serial killer?" Lance just walked over, grabbed Rhett's satchel, and naturally took out a handful of candies from it, throwing a handful of candies to Morgan and Emily. pieces. "When I went out in the morning, I saw the little doctor stuffing sugar in the bag."

Rhett licked the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Gordon gave it to me yesterday."

Lance snorted twice, "We didn't split up together in the end." Then he pulled a chair and sat down beside Rhett, "I just went to the ranger with Gordon."

Emily peeled off the candy wrapper and put the candy in her mouth, her face wrinkled immediately, "Lemon flavor, but I like it. Gordon has already told us."

"Then it's nothing." Lance swayed his legs and called Garcia, and said when he got through, "Miss, please help me check Jesse Griffin's information. It should be a bit difficult to find."

"Oh? Oh!" Garcia became interested, "Are you going to throw me a puzzle as soon as you come? I am happy to solve the puzzle, unless he is a caveman, otherwise you know no one can escape from my grasp .”

"UM, let's see, Jesse Griffin...huh? There's a bank record in Erquith, Florida, and then gone? Huh?" Garcia asked shortly, "And it was only a few years ago." Appeared, there is no record before this, except for the bank account, he does not have any payment notes, small receipts, etc., tell me honestly, does this person really exist?"

"How about getting it from an old Mrs. Johnson in the local area? It is said that Griffin is her distant nephew. You also have photos of Griffin over there."

"Yes yes, interesting. I'll get back to you if I have any news." Garcia hung up the phone.

Lance looked at the phone and shrugged. Hu Qi looked over, "Do you doubt Jesse Griffin?"

"No." Lance shook his head, "I doubt Carlock Joe."

Well, then his small and cute sinful claws penetrated into my quilt, used Foshan Shadowless Claws at me, scratched me three times, and then ran away without looking back.

I was shocked at the time, how did his claws get into the quilt?Then I turned around and saw, oh, there was a hole in the quilt by myself.Beep beep.

Then when I went out in the afternoon, I forgot to bring my keys. When I came back, I checked my pockets, looked at the weather, and looked at my phone. I was cracked.
