Chapter 667 Temporary Partner
At the end of the video, Jack, who was called a bastard, was fine. In fact, as long as it didn't start with the word "branch", he was basically indifferent to European and American swear words with a poor vocabulary.
But the faces of the analysts of color were ugly. Even the upper-class white people in Emma Kane's words, including Jubal, turned red with anger.
After all, in this country, as long as you are a sane person, who doesn't have one or two friends of color, let alone a white man like Lacroix who married an indigenous woman and had a daughter.
Seeing a trash kid who kidnapped children become a hero or even a "martyr" in the eyes of some people, everyone felt that their outlook on life had been tarnished.
Next, Jubal played the scene of the church that was attacked and a surveillance video that captured Emma Kane's face. They had already seen these, and they were specially for Jack and Lacroix who were not present before. Played.
"CID (Criminal Investigation Department) has listed Emma Kane as their most wanted fugitive and I know everyone has been working hard all day and now all night for those children.
There are some things I feel are useless to say. Look at the tragedy here and think about the inhumane extremists we are facing. Work harder, guys, for the sake of those innocent lives. "
Dana Moger did not make a long speech, and there was no need to add fuel to the atmosphere at the scene. After a brief statement, she winked at Jubal and Hannah, and soon everyone walked into the small conference room nearby.
The female boss first briefly told what happened to Lacroix's daughter, focusing on the suspicion that ICE might have extremists colluding with the Kanes. Jubal immediately said that he would immediately arrange personnel to investigate.
The focus of the following discussion naturally turned to Emma Kane. Everyone had to admit that they had underestimated this woman who looked no different from an ordinary American housewife.
She is an out-and-out lunatic. The trouble is, this lunatic now has up to 1 million US dollars in funds. Whether it is to purchase arms or explosives, this money is enough to cause one or even multiple terrorist massacres.
The massacre at St. Mary's Church was just an attack to vent her anger. Emma Kane bought some milk powder and diapers, claimed to the unsuspecting nuns that she was here to donate, and sneaked in with a Glock 17. In the church, an event for pregnant women from ethnic minorities was being held in the church.
The FBI doesn't know if there was any premeditation before this, but judging from the time, it should be just a temporary idea of the woman. She may even just find a church to carry out the attack after learning about her husband's death from the news.
And the tool that caused this level of casualties was only a Glock 17 worth about two hundred US dollars. What effect would one million US dollars achieve?
Jack was thinking about the situation and clues that the FBI currently has, while sorting out his thoughts, "Emma Kane is on a wanted order, so she shouldn't show up casually, and as a woman, she can look like another person just by putting on makeup. , even if the photo is shown on TV, the effect will be limited.
So we might as well start with her companions. We still have four members of the organization who were captured alive. They should know something. We need to interrogate the results as soon as possible. No useful information can be let go.
In addition to Emma Kane, we know that there is another fish that slipped through the net. Although he did not appear in the surveillance video of the church massacre, the two should still be together, and we need to confirm his identity as soon as possible.
In addition, someone should go to Owen Jamerson's house as soon as possible to take notes on his parents, and ask about the process of paying the ransom and the meeting place of both parties, which may be of some help. "
Jubal put one hand on the table and tapped it gently. After thinking for a moment, he added, "There is also the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Kane. They used to live in Avon, a small town in Connecticut. Someone needs to go and search it. Maybe they can find something." Discover."
As he spoke, his eyes wandered between Jack and Lacroix, and finally landed on Jack. "It would be best if someone who is good at psychological profiling makes the trip himself."
"OK, leave the interrogation work to me, and Hannah will assist. When daybreak, Hannah will be responsible for taking people to Jamerson's house. Leave the family affairs to Jubal, including the ICE investigation. Jack will go there. Evan, do you have any more questions?”
Dana Mauger finished assigning tasks resolutely and was about to get up and leave, but was stopped by Lacroix, "Jack and I will go together."
"Are you sure it's okay?" the female boss pointedly said.
"At this time, I can't expect a reply from ICE, right?" Lacroix smiled bitterly and showed the time on his phone. It was already past 2 a.m.
The video uploaded by Emma Kane on YouTube was just after 12 midnight, so she said in it that her husband was shot and killed last night, and she used very strict words.
Dana Moger hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, if there is any news about your daughter, you can leave immediately, and the same goes for Jack. We will cover for you."
"Thank you very much." It can be seen that Lacroix is not a person with very expressive facial expressions, but you can feel his mood at the moment from the strength of his handshake with everyone.
——
The small town of Avon is not far from New York. The straight-line distance to New York is less than 150 kilometers. It was late at night again, and it took Jack just over two hours to drive here.
Neither Mr. and Mrs. Kane have legitimate jobs, and they have some rent income but not much. However, the small house where they live is very clean and even a bit cozy.
Of course, the premise is that you must first ignore the various decorations with racist connotations that can be seen from the beginning, as well as things such as sofa covers, carpets and even sheets filled with Stars and Stripes pattern elements.
After thanking the local police officers who led the way and helped open the door, Jack and Lacroix spent nearly an hour carefully searching the two-story building from upstairs to downstairs.
At this time, the sky outside was already a little dark, and Jack took a flashlight and wandered around the small garden behind the house before returning to the living room to meet Lacroix.
"So the husband, Tiger, likes model trains. He used to smoke but later quit. The wife, Emma, likes to do cross-stitch and some needlework. Her gardening skills are average. The hobbies of these racists and terrorists seem to be quite approachable. What do you have? Did you find anything?"
Jack's fingers scanned several places such as the closet in the living room. Some of the objects displayed above were the basis for his judgment.
Lacroix pouted while holding several photo frames in his hand, which showed the couple waving the Stars and Stripes or shouting slogans on various occasions, "This couple is often away from home and often participates in various parades and rallies everywhere. Well, We have known this before.”
Jack pointed upstairs, "I found a few books in the bedroom. There was a book called "Charming Femininity" published in the 1970s. It said that women should stay at home and have children, and how to do laundry and cooking at the same time. You become more attractive, so that your husband can regain his glory after returning home from a hard day.
Well, there's also cross-stitch on the wall with the quote, 'Home is not a place, but a calling.' It looks like the couple saw some medieval tradition as a means of continuing their purebred lineage, Gee, it’s like living in a self-constructed daydream. "
As if reminded by Jack's words, Lacroix took out a few porcelain dolls from his pocket, "Speaking of continuing the bloodline, I found a lot of these ornaments in their bedroom. It seems that Emma Kane wants it very much." A child."
Jack also took out an evidence bag from his pocket and grinned, "They should have tried, but failed. These bottles of vitamins such as folic acid have expired for at least a year."
"That's why she attacked those Latino pregnant women so mercilessly. She longed for a purebred baby who could continue her noble bloodline, but it backfired."
The two of them exchanged words with each other and quickly completed the psychological profile of the Kanes. However, these did not seem to be helpful in finding the whereabouts of Emma Kane.
"Do you think she will specifically target schools or religious places because of this?" Jack hesitated when he said this.
Lacroix also shook his head uncertainly, "It's hard to say. This won't narrow the scope. Instead, it may be misleading."
After speaking, he sighed, found another big bag, and packed together the two porcelain dolls he found and Jack's bag of pregnancy vitamins, "I hope they will gain something there."
