Chapter 1427 Blood Moon (Sixty-Six)
"Deputy Sheriff Ronan..."
In the sheriff's office on the third floor, which is also the top floor of the police station, Ford Hamilton asked calmly, "How do you feel about your time in the police station?"
Ronan, who was sitting opposite him, smiled and said, "Very good."
pretty good.
This answer made Sheriff Ford's eye twitch.
He doesn't like Ronan, not at all!
As for the reason for the aversion, the first one was that Senior Detective Claymond of the Ceres Police Station was Ford Hamilton's old friend for many years. The two had fought side by side and forged a deep friendship.
Because of Ronan's relationship, Clement was demoted to an ordinary police officer, and decades of hard work were destroyed!
Now that Ronan has come to Ford Hamilton for an internship, how could he possibly look favorably upon Ronan?
Besides, Ronan became a deputy sheriff at such a young age. Thinking about how he has gone through life and death and is still only a sheriff, how can Ford Hamilton feel balanced!
What made the police chief even more depressed was that he adopted a cold and disgusted attitude towards Ronan and influenced all the police officers in the police station to isolate Ronan.
In the end, Ronan didn't care at all. He was as calm as an experienced official, and his mentality was so good that he didn't seem like a young man at all.
I live a lazy life every day and seem very comfortable!
Ford Hamilton could certainly let Ronan continue like this until the end of his internship, and then give him a bad review.
The problem is that Ford Hamilton now knows that this young trainee deputy sheriff has a close relationship with Gustav Rhine and was arranged to the Old Port area by the Lion Count.
Even if he gives an unsatisfactory score at that time, will the other party not be able to modify the file?
The answer is obviously no!
So Ford Hamilton decided to change his strategy against Ronan.
He opened the drawer, took out a document, and threw it in front of Ronan: "Then this case is handed over to you."
Ronan took the document and read it over.
This was a family murder case that happened five days ago. The victims were Levi Bauer and his family. He, his wife, and two children were all killed at home.
As the murderer's modus operandi was extremely sophisticated and he did not leave any useful clues, the investigation came to a standstill.
In fact, similar cases have occurred more than once in the Old Port District, and they were basically all listed as unsolved cases. The relevant files were then buried in the archives and never seen the light of day until they were forgotten by everyone.
Levi Bauer was a small workshop owner and was considered a well-to-do family in the Old Port area.
At the time of the incident, all the property in his house was looted, not even a penny was left!
Therefore, this family murder case was first defined as a home invasion robbery and murder case.
After reading the document, Ronan said simply, "Okay."
Ford Hamilton gave him a long look, then rang the desk bell and asked his secretary to call in a detective.
"Detective Cash."
Ford Hamilton instructed the middle-aged detective: "The case of Levi Bauer's family murder is now handed over to Deputy Chief Ronan. You are responsible for assisting in the investigation."
Detective Cash looked at Ronan, then at the sheriff, and answered with a stiff upper lip: "Yes, sir."
The depression in his heart really cannot be described in words.
Over the past period of time, Ronan has always been one of the focus of discussion among the police officers of the Fourth Police Station, and Detective Cash has also talked about this young trainee deputy sheriff with his colleagues.
Everyone agreed that Ronan would not be able to survive in the Fourth Police Station.
It's just a matter of time.
Some even bet that Ronan would last a few days before exploding.
Unexpectedly, he now has to work with Ronan on a case, and the case is the murder of Levi Bauer's family!
As the first person to handle this case, Detective Cash knew very well how difficult it was.
Now with Ronan added to the mix, he vaguely felt that he was in danger of becoming cannon fodder.
Of course, despite his complaints, the detective was still polite to Ronan on the surface: "Sir, please tell me what I want to say."
Ronan stood up without any politeness and said, "Take me to the crime scene now."
He nodded to Ford Hamilton, then stood up and left the office.
Detective Cash hesitated and looked at Chief Ford.
As a result, the latter leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
Detective Cash gritted his teeth and followed Ronan out of the room.
The two men left the police station and rode their bicycles to the crime scene.
Although cars have existed in this world for a long time, this advanced means of transportation is still a luxury in Ceres, and only a few nobles and businessmen can own it.
Most people travel by horse-drawn carriages, rickshaws and bicycles.
The Fourth Police Station issued bicycles to all detectives. Although Ronan was a trainee deputy sheriff, he also had one.
In fact, bicycles are still very practical and convenient for navigating crowded streets and alleys.
The crime scene is located on the fifth floor of an apartment building. Since the case is still under investigation, Levi Bauer's home is still cordoned off by security tape to prevent others from entering.
There was no body in the apartment, but the dried blood at the scene was still shocking.
Ronan compared the photos and reconstructed the scene of the crime in his mind.
Levi Bauer's family of four died tragically, but there were no signs of a fight at the scene. The weapon used by the murderer was determined to be a dagger after an autopsy, and except for Levi Bauer, all others were killed with one knife.
Levi Bauer was stabbed hundreds of times - the murderer obviously didn't want him to die quickly!
In addition, the case occurred late at night, and the residents of the same apartment did not notice anything unusual that night.
No one knew anything about this, including the apartment manager.
There is no murder weapon, no traces, and no witnesses. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to solve such a case!
The amazing thing about the murderer is that he didn't even leave any footprints.
"We suspect it's a supernatural being."
After Ronan finished reading it, Detective Cash said, "It was done so neatly, it looks like an assassin's method, but we can't be 100% sure, after all, there are too few clues."
Ronan thought for a moment and asked, "Have you investigated Levi Bauer?"
“We have investigated.”
Detective Cash quickly replied, "The family came to Ceres from abroad five years ago. After Levi Bauer bought this apartment, he opened a small workshop, and the whole family relies on this workshop for a living."
"According to our investigation, Levi Bauer has no enemies in Ceres. His business is not big, and he doesn't have any business rivals."
"But Levi Bauer himself must have lived on a ship for a long time. There are many signs on his body that can prove this!"
Sailor? Or pirate?
Ronan nodded: "Then let's go take a look at his body."
