Chapter 1179 The murderer calls (Part 1)

The phone was still ringing. Jack had called Alice's phone and asked her to track the call immediately.

However, before Jiejie picked up the phone, the answering machine was connected. After a beep, a soft female voice sounded, "Jack, I know you are there, answer the phone."

Everyone looked at someone in unison. Just when Jack suspected that this might be a coincidence, the voice said his full name very confidently, "Jack Tavoler, no doubt, it's you, pick up the phone."

"The security device on the door lock, although we notified the security company, the other party may have known that someone entered their home through a mobile phone APP or computer."

Aubrey's statement can explain the other party's perfect call time, but the doubt in everyone's mind is, why can she call out Jack's full name?

In a flash, there was not much time left for everyone to think. Jack handed his phone to Hannah, made a countdown gesture of 321 to others, and then pressed the hands-free button.

"Hello, who is this?"

"I thought I could count on you, Jack." The woman spoke again, without the slightly provocative tone from before, but a little sad instead?

"What do you count on me? Find you or make it public?" Jack felt that the other party's voice was familiar. Although the phone would cause distortion, he had definitely heard this voice not long ago.

The other party did not directly answer Jack's question, but said to himself, "Please forgive me for searching your name on the Internet without authorization. To be honest, there is not much information. I am surprised at your youth and low-key.

I am curious about what you did to get an outstanding Presidential Medal of Freedom. I know you haven't received it yet, but your name is on the list published by the White House."

Jack's mind was racing, imagining various possibilities, and he said modestly, "I just did my duty. It's my honor to get the attention of a lady like you."

"I once thought you were a hero, Jack, an upright knight." The woman still spoke in a slightly sad tone.

"Especially this morning, I saw you on TV, at the press conference about the shooting last night. For a moment, I thought there might still be good people in this world."

When he heard the other party choke up a little when he said the last few words, Jack had a flash of inspiration and guessed why the other party said that, but he deliberately led the topic to another side.

"So you feel that I have disappointed you because you found that I am also like other men in your life, cheating on my wife, or mistreating my ex-wife and children, so I need to be punished?"

The woman on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, as if she was a little surprised, but she didn't seem to care so much, and chuckled, "So you are also such a person?"

"Of course not, I haven't been married yet, and I don't have children. Single life is so beautiful, there is no reason for me to give up so early, right?"

Facing the slightly complicated eyes of Hannah and Jiejie, and the expressions of others who looked like they were watching a good show, Jack pulled the corners of his mouth with difficulty, saying that he was trying to fool the suspect and delay time.

"So you must have had many girlfriends, right? Did you pay them for that?" the woman continued to ask.

This question was a little insulting to Jack, "Do you think I'm that kind of person? I admit that I have had uh... a lot of female friends with whom I have special relationships, but our relationship does not involve money."

Although he felt a little guilty in the middle, the last sentence was quite justified.

"So you are not the kind of man who would date me, no wonder you rejected me at that time." This inexplicable feeling suddenly made Jack realize who the other party was.

Hannah's beautiful eyes were wide open, and she looked like she wanted to accuse him, but she was afraid of alarming the suspect and dared not speak.

Jack made a gesture of listening in silence, and almost everyone came close to the phone, and then clearly heard a man making a frightened sound, as if his mouth was blocked.

While raising his hand to signal Aubrey to continue urging Alice to speed up the process, Jack asked cautiously, "Then what kind of person do you think I am?"

"A bitch like me!" The other party's answer was somewhat unexpected.

Jack laughed instead of being angry, "What do you mean?"

"Some people can call you over with just one phone call and ask you to help clean up their messes. Maybe you are really capable, but facing those powerful people, you can only wag your tail and beg for mercy, hoping that they can slip a little bit of leftovers through their fingers."

The other party seemed to have misunderstood something, but before Jack could answer, Aubrey showed the phone screen in front of him, which showed the identity of the owner of the incoming phone number.

Tranter Rab, 48 years old, a Texas rancher, was a lucky man who made a fortune when he was young because of the discovery of oil under the ranch left to him by his parents.

Although Jack did not have the terrifying reading speed of Red, it was far beyond ordinary people. He read the information almost at a glance and then frowned.

The Tranter Rab in the file has no children and is very much in love with his wife, but unfortunately, his wife died of cancer a year ago, and he has been single ever since.

Although the file sent by Alice is a bit rough, it is obvious that this Tranter Rab should not be the kind of scumbag rich man that the suspect hates.

Is it that their previous profile was wrong, their speculation about the motive of the crime was wrong, or the suspect changed her target?

However, before Jack could think about it, a suspicious woman's voice came from the other side of the phone, "Jack? Are you still there?"

"Of course." Jack quickly replied, "I'm just a little shocked that I have such an image in my mind, but words are not enough, and I believe you don't want to hear my detailed explanation of why I came to Dallas to participate in your case.

Because no matter what, I have disappointed you, right?"

"Go on." The woman sighed.

"You want the world to see the shameless faces of some people and make some things public. Originally, my investigation may be what you want, so that all the truth will come out.

However, the media has not made any movement these days. This makes you very angry, is that right?"

The woman's sobbing came from the other side of the phone again, and at the same time, the FBI also heard a man's terrified panting and mumbling more clearly.

A moment later, accompanied by the sound of the pistol hammer being pulled down, the woman's voice became cold and grim, "Have I ever told you that you are smart, Agent Tawole? But do you dare to admit that you are really just here to investigate the case?"
