Half an hour later, the door of the Robbery and Murder Departnt office opened.
"Knock knock."
"Co in."
A mont later, a thirty-sothing white woman walked into the office. She wore a black business suit, carried a briefcase, and was quite tall. Although not particularly beautiful, she was dressed appropriately and carried herself with poise.
"Hi, my na is Vicki Sabour, I'm Thomas Colley's lawyer."
"Hello, Attorney Sabour, my na is Jenny. We spoke on the phone earlier.
Please follow ."
Jenny led her into the lounge and asked, "Would you like sothing to drink?"
Vicki Sabour placed her briefcase on the table, "No, thank you. Where's Thomas Colley?"
"Just a mont." Jenny said and left the office.
A while later, the lounge door opened.
Luke and Jenny walked into the lounge one after another, "Hello, Attorney Sabour, I'm Luke Lee, the person in charge here."
"I've heard of you, Captain Lee." Vicki Sabour stood up and extended her hand to Luke. "Did Thomas Colley ask you to call here?"
"No, it was who called you here. To be precise, I wanted to talk to you."
"Talk about what?"
"About Thomas Colley."
Vicki Sabour laughed, "You want to probe for information about my client from a lawyer.
Are you doubting my professionalism?
Listen, don't expect to get any information detrintal to my client from ."
"Thomas Colley has confessed to all charges. What could be more detrintal to him than that?"
"Then what do you want here for?"
"To help Thomas Colley."
Vicki Sabour showed a wary expression, "I don't understand what you an?"
"During our investigation, we found so leads favorable to Thomas Colley, but due to insufficient evidence, we can't confirm it yet. So we need your assistance."
"Since it's favorable for Thomas Colley, why don't you talk to him directly?
I'm not very familiar with the case he's involved in, so I don't know how I can help you."
"Do you know Thomas Colley's wife?"
"Yes, I first got to know Georgina Colley, then beca their family lawyer. Although they got divorced, that hasn't changed.
They both trust a lot."
"Are you aware that Thomas Colley once participated in drug trials for Kerman Pharmaceutical Company?"
"Yes, he once thought about suing that company, but it was almost impossible to win. These large pharmaceutical companies invariably have formidable legal teams.
I advised him to give up that idea."
"What do you think about Thomas Colley's cases of kidnapping, robbery, and arson?"
Vicki Sabour shook her head, "I have no comnt.
If Thomas Colley needs it, I'll help him fight for his rights, that's all."
Luke shifted the topic, "Did Thomas Colley leave a will?"
Vicki Sabour shrugged, "Sorry, that's his private matter, and I'm not at liberty to disclose it."
Luke took out a docunt and handed it to Vicki Sabour, "I need to see Thomas Colley's will."
Vicki Sabour took the docunt and examined it for a long ti before saying, "Thomas Colley did indeed leave a will, but I didn't bring it along, it's still at the law firm."
"I'll go to the law firm with you."
Half an hour later, Luke arrived at Vicki Sabour's law firm and obtained Thomas Colley's will from her.
Thomas Colley's will mainly consisted of three parts; the first part involved the mortgaged house—the money from selling the house or clearing its debts would go to his daughter.
Additionally, he had fifty thousand US Dollars in cash, which would also go to his daughter.
Lastly, he rented a warehouse at the Tiber Storage Company, and the items in that warehouse were to be considered relics for his ex-wife.
The first two points of the will didn't interest Luke much, but the third point about the rented warehouse caught his attention.
The police weren't previously aware that Thomas Colley had rented this warehouse.
Earlier, according to the deputy team's speculation, those who took the fall would generally keep evidence pointing to the mastermind, and this evidence would likely be in the hands of close or trusted friends.
Luke had t Thomas Colley's ex-wife and daughter, and in conversations with them, Luke felt that the two might not know about Thomas Colley's situation.
Luke speculated two possibilities: in the first scenario, Thomas Colley had given such evidence to so trusted other person, but Luke hadn't found this person's existence.
The second possibility was that Thomas Colley simply hadn't yet turned over the material to his ex-wife and daughter, and if anything were to happen to him, these items would be handed to them, which is why Luke thought of the will.
Luke guessed that the evidence identifying the mastermind behind the scene was likely in that rented warehouse.
...
Tiber Storage Company.
This is a chain storage company based in California, headquartered in Los Angeles with its facility located in the southern suburbs of Los Angeles, covering a vast area.
Luke led his team to Tiber Storage Company and showed a search warrant.
The storage company's manager imdiately guided Luke and his team to the warehouse rented by Thomas Colley.
The storage company manager couldn't open the warehouse door either, and after confirming the location, Luke had soone use a battering ram to break open the warehouse door.
The warehouse was not large, only about ten square ters.
