August confessed.
The Dracula Bar murder case was successfully cracked and began to enter the closure phase.
In the evening, everyone went to the bar to celebrate.
A ceremony is still necessary; it's also a form of motivation.
"Cheers,"
Everyone finished their drinks.
Luke took a big gulp of ice-cold beer, which was better cold.
What's the biggest benefit of being a cop in the United States? It isn't the high salary or the ability to use a gun, but rather the freedom to drink.
Most n prefer to have a few drinks once they reach a certain age, especially in a high-risk profession like policing. After a busy day, it's great to relax and have a little drink.
Of course, that's from a policeman's perspective. From a citizen's perspective, they would surely prefer the police to be on duty 24 hours a day.
However, this is hard to achieve in the United States. Once LAPD officers are off duty, they also have the right to enjoy their freedom.
Susan, carrying a small black bag, ca over. "Hey, guys, I just visited the tech division, sorry for being late."
The Assistant Chief asked, "Any new progress from the tech division?"
"Exactly, the blood collected by Luke outside the farm has been tested for DNA identification.
The results don't match Darcy's DNA; they're now comparing it with DNA samples in the database, but there are no results yet."
Susan took a drink from Jenny. "Thanks.
Also, the fresh blood collected outside the farm has been identified as Type B, likely from a Caucasian male."
Luke frowned, "This differs from farr Jefferson's description. According to him, the thief should be a Black male.
Could the blood found outside the farm not belong to the thief?
Were there other people who visited the farm?"
After saying this, Luke felt it was sowhat implausible.
The Assistant Chief responded, "I think there are two possibilities. First, it was dark, and the farr did not see clearly, mistakenly identifying the suspect as Black.
The second possibility is that the farr lied."
Robbin thought for a mont, "I don't have a good impression of that farr either. He didn't seem friendly, but he also didn't seem like a liar, more like a racist.
Anyti sothing bad happens, he habitually blas Black people. It has to be Black people.
This mindset is scary and also quite common."
Susan said, "Regardless of the reason, I will contact the local patrol officers to keep an eye on things."
Robbin asked, "Don't we need to bring him in for a new statent?"
Susan considered for a mont, "Not for now.
We can't prove a connection between the two cases yet, nor can we prove that the blood outside the farm cos from the thief. Even if we brought them in again, it wouldn't be very aningful.
He could easily say he made a mistake, and just like that, the police would be sent away."
As if rembering sothing, the Assistant Chief said, "Rember the suspicious young white guy I found when investigating the blood pattern?
From this point of view, the suspicious man found outside the farm might be the killer of Angela and Darcy.
In fact, it proves that the farm theft might be related to the two murder cases."
Susan countered, "Assistant Chief, do you also think we should take another statent from the farr?"
"No, taking another statent won't be very aningful.
If he didn't intentionally lie, it's very likely he was mistaken.
If even the race of the thief is wrong, taking another statent isn't valuable, his testimony is already unreliable.
If he did lie intentionally, he will lie again and won't easily confess, instead, it could tip him off.
So, I suggest we could have soone investigate discreetly."
After a mont of thought, Susan said, "Raymond, Jenny, the farr hasn't seen you two, you'll be in charge of investigating covertly."
"Yes, captain."
Susan spread her hands, "OK, that's it. This is a bar, I don't want to turn it into a eting room.
Gentlen, let's have a drink. Talk about sothing else.
With Susan's suggestion, everyone raised their glasses.
[Congratulations to the Host for solving the 'Dracula Bar Murder Case', successfully capturing 4 suspects, awarded 20 lottery chances.]
The case itself wasn't particularly complex, just that the investigation took so twists and turns. One reason was that bar owner Robbin instructed his n to dispose of the body.
Another was because of the 'Holy Blood'.
The most crucial aspect was its connection to vampires, shrouded in a veil of mystery.
Once the fog cleared, the case itself wasn't complicated.
The lottery interface appeared in Luke's mind.

Luke recalculated his assets; he had a good amount of money co in recently.
First was last month's salary, nearly ten thousand US dollars before taxes, and over seven thousand after taxes.
The reason Luke's salary increased substantially was mainly for two reasons, one was his recent dedication to cases, resulting in high overti pay.
The other was his promotion from detective to Detective Chief, which bumped up his police rank, increasing his base salary and allowances.
Besides that, compensation from the Harley motorcycle case had co through, netting him 30,000 US dollars after deducting attorney fees and taxes.
