Chapter 644
The next morning, Locke and his friends walked into the conference room with coffee cups in hand, and soon Madeline Hill walked in.
She glanced at everyone, “Harry has gone with the family of the Lopez couple to identify the bodies. We don’t have to wait for him. He will bring them here to record the record later…”
Locke and his friends looked at Jack Talbot at the same time. It seems that Harry Sanam was publicly reprimanded by Madeline Hill yesterday, and his work enthusiasm immediately increased.
After sitting down, Madeline Hill said directly to Brian Smith: “Brian, introduce the information you collected about the Lopez couple!”
Brian Smith clicked on the computer, and Carl Lopez’s resume immediately appeared on the projector. “There is nothing unusual about Carl Lopez’s resume. He was born in an ordinary blue-collar family. Because of his excellent academic performance, he was admitted to the University of Pennsylvania. He graduated with a master’s degree in economics and worked in three large companies. He joined Sam’s Supermarket 20 years ago and retired as a senior vice president. His 20 years of work at Sam’s Supermarket has made him She has accumulated a fortune of nearly 20 million…”
“Compared to Carl Lopez, Kathy Lopez’s resume is mediocre. She is Carl Lopez’s schoolmate and also graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, but she studied information management two years later than Carl Lopez…”
“Kathy Lopez only had a short working experience. After marrying Carl Lopez, she has been a housewife. The two are very loving and have raised three children in total…”
After reading the resumes of the Lopez couple, Brian Smith switched to another photo, which was a somewhat mottled photo.
The photo looks like somewhere in the West, with a desolate hilly area in the background, a bit like Nevada. A man in his fifties stands next to a cactus, wearing an outdoor adventure suit…
Brian Smith introduced: “His name is Thomas Harrison, he is Casey Lopez’s father, a photographer for National Geographic, and also an explorer and collector…”
“Thomas Harrison died after being hit on the head by a stone during an expedition mission ten years ago, but he donated almost all of his collections to the museum before his death. Casey Lopez only inherited a small part of his father’s collection…”
Madeline Hill interrupted: “I think we should have discovered why the thieves’ gang targeted Carl Lopez. Their real target should be the collection that Casey Lopez inherited from Thomas Harrison!”
Locke agreed with this reasoning. Although Carl Lopez is considered a rich man, in Los Angeles, he can only be regarded as a senior worker at most, and is not worth the thieves’ gang’s attention.
So, the thieves’ gang’s target is actually Casey Lopez.
He asked Brian Smith, “Can you find out what Casey Lopez inherited from Thomas Harrison?” Brian Smith smiled confidently, “Of course, I have found it. Thomas Harrison made a will, and there is a detailed list in his will list!” As he spoke, he clicked the next page again, and a scanned copy of the list immediately appeared on the screen. After glancing at the list, Locke raised his eyebrows, because the list was very simple, two properties, a Land Rover Defender, five pieces of jewelry and a music box. Brian Smith switched the photos again, which were comparison photos of the two lists. Compared with the legacy left to his daughter, Thomas Harrison donated more than 30 collections to the museum, including many from Egypt and the Middle East. Raven Tate touched his chin and sighed, “Thomas Harrison is a man worthy of admiration!” Locke subconsciously glanced at him, not knowing whether his words were sincere or yin and yang. Anyway, he knew that if Li Bo and Marian donated all their inheritance, he would never bring flowers to the cemetery to see them, even though his money had long exceeded their accumulation.
Thaddeus Martin asked, “So the target of the thieves is the five pieces of jewelry and the music box?”
Brian Smith shrugged and said, “I tried to find photos of the five pieces of jewelry, uh, and the music box, but I didn’t find any clues…”
“Dong… Dong…”
Harry Sanam pushed open the door of the conference room and looked at Madeline Hill, “Captain, the Lopez family is here. Their eldest daughter, Catherine Lopez, is in France and is on the plane. The second daughter, Jessica Lopez, and the youngest son, Brandon Lopez, are here…”

Madeline Hill immediately terminated the meeting, “Take their statements now. I need to know what the five pieces of jewelry in Cassie Lopez’s hand are and how much they are worth?”
The gang is targeting them, so the value of these five pieces of jewelry can be imagined.
…
In the interrogation room, Locke calmly stared at Jessica Lopez, who was wiping tears from time to time. This woman was in her thirties, dressed very elegantly, wearing a dark blue Burberry woolen windbreaker and a veil on her head.
Jessica Lopez obviously couldn’t accept the unexpected death of her parents. She was a little emotional. When recording the statement, she sobbed from time to time, causing the record to be intermittent.
Locke had learned some of the deeds of the Lopez couple from Jessica Lopez, and even asked some questions about Thomas Harrison.
However, from what Jessica Lopez said, her grandfather Thomas Harrison often traveled around the world, and they sometimes only met once a year, so she didn’t know much about Thomas Harrison.
After Jessica Lopez calmed down, Locke asked again: “Ms. Lopez, do you know what caused the Lopez couple to suddenly stop their European trip and return to Los Angeles overnight?”
Jessica Lopez hesitated for a moment, her expression suddenly became a little angry, and said in a deep voice: “Brandon, my brother Brandon suddenly announced to his family! This news scared Carl and Casey, so they are both devout believers, so they hurried back to Los Angeles…”
“It’s all because of this bastard. If it weren’t for his damn sexual orientation, Carl and Casey wouldn’t have returned to Los Angeles temporarily and wouldn’t have encountered thieves at home, woo woo…”
Locke and Thaddeus Martin looked at each other, both looking helpless, how could they continue.
Thaddeus Martin tried to comfort her, “Ms. Lopez, please calm down. We need to know more information so that we can catch the murderer who killed you, Mr. Lopez and Mrs. Lopez, as soon as possible!”
Jessica Lopez wiped away her tears, “Sorry, please continue, OMG, I really can’t accept this, they are all kind people and have never hurt anyone…”
She took a deep breath and wiped away her tears again, “I am ok now, I hope you can catch the murderer as soon as possible!”
The sadness between people is destined to be incommunicable.
Facing the sad Ms. Jessica Lopez, Locke’s heart did not waver at all.
He asked calmly, “Ms. Lopez, as far as we know, after Mr. Thomas Harrison passed away, he donated most of his collection to the museum.”
“Your mother, Ms. Cathy Lopez, only received a small part of the inheritance, including two properties, a Land Rover Defender, five pieces of jewelry and a music box…”
Jessica Lopez looked at Locke with red eyes in confusion, “What do you mean, isn’t this a burglary and murder case? Could the murders of Carl and Cathy be related to Thomas’s inheritance?”
“That’s impossible. The five pieces of jewelry Thomas left to Cathy came from my grandmother, and they are not very valuable jewelry!”
