Then they kidnapped my girlfriend, using her to threaten me, demanding I give them that travel bag.

They said they wouldn't just release my girlfriend after the job was done, but also give me ten thousand US Dollar.

Come on, I'm a vagrant, not a fool." The vagrant sneered and continued,

"I've seen plenty of this kind of thing on TV.

I know they're definitely doing something illegal, wanting me to be the scapegoat. As soon as I deliver the travel bag as agreed, both my girlfriend and I would be silenced by them.

So I opened the travel bag, wanting to see what was inside. When I saw it was filled with cash, this feeling became even stronger.

I want to take this money and hand it to the police.

You've seen what happened afterward. I'm a good person, I don't have any weapons, and I've been trying to escape their pursuit.

I even thought about using the money to distract them, then go to the car to rescue my girlfriend.

Oh, by the way, those bastards stuffed my girlfriend into the trunk of the car, hurry up and save her."

Little Black thinks this guy's words are complete nonsense. If he could escape with the money just now, he definitely wouldn't leave the money behind, let alone glance at the so-called 'girlfriend'.

"We're not just going to question you, so you'd better not lie."

"I swear to God that everything I said is true."

...

Inside a Ford van.

Luke stared at the white man opposite him, asking, "What's your name?"

"Tom Burton."

"Where did you hide the hostage?"

Tom Burton shook his head, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Tom, we haven't just caught you alone. My colleague is interrogating your accomplice, whoever is willing to assist the police can turn state's evidence and get a favorable plea deal.

You should know very well what that means.

An opportunity, there's one."

Luke glanced at his watch, "It's now twelve twenty-five in the morning, how long do you think it will take before your accomplice confesses?

Will he name you first, or other accomplices?

If he reveals the location where the hostage is being held first, you'll lose your bargaining chip for the deal."

Tom showed a look of panic, but still hesitated a bit.

Luke continued, "Tom, I know you went to Jim to exchange Gold, and I also know you approached the cleaning company. We are very aware of your situation, even if you don't admit it, we can still convict you.

If the hostage gets killed, you will definitely be sentenced to death, are you prepared to spend the rest of your life in prison?"

Luke lowered his voice, reminding, "The hostage's dad is very wealthy and very angry.

He'll surely make arrangements for you to be well taken care of in prison..."

"Cloya Community.

The hostage is hidden there."

Seeing the other party finally talked, Luke pressed the advantage, "How many of you are there?"

"Four, with two people left to guard the hostage."

"Tell me about them.

One is called Hugo Joduri, he's our boss and the mastermind of the case, he planned the kidnapping, a very ruthless guy.

Another is called Sofia, the boss brought her along, I don't know much about her."

"What weapons do the two of them have?"

"Two rifles, two pistols."

"Where is the hostage hidden? Is she hurt?"

"She's locked in the basement, but not injured, we are just after money, not sadists."

"What are you planning to do with the hostage?"

"I don't know..." Tom Burton said perfunctorily.

"Don't lie.

Tell me, after you get that six million in cash, what will you do to the hostage?" Luke had to understand the movement of the other two kidnappers, fearing they would harm the hostage prematurely.

Tom Burton sighed, "Once we get the money, we'll leave Los Angeles immediately. Once in a safe place, the boss said he'll take care of the hostage."

"How will he take care of it?"

"As the boss said, he'll handle it himself...

I definitely won't kill."

Luke stared at his expression, solemnly said, "If because of your lies the hostage is killed, you can be ready to retire in prison."

"I haven't lied, everything I said is true!"

Luke didn't see clear signs of lying from him, "Do you want a favorable plea deal?"

Tom Burton quickly agreed, "Yes."

"Good, then assist us in rescuing the hostage."

Afterward, Luke, the deputy team, Marcus compared the statements of the three suspects.

The police rescued a woman from the trunk of a black Dodge car, her statement also matched with the three, basically confirming the three were not lying.

Next, the police began formulating a plan to rescue the hostage.

Things can't be delayed for too long, otherwise the other two suspects will get alert, might escape, or even kill the hostage.

Time is very pressing.
