Chapter 695 Copycat
The two men parted after smoking a cigar by the river. Jack went to the District Attorney's Office to pick up Irene, then accompanied her to pick up her daughter from school, and finally sent them to the Reagan family villa, which was Frank's home. They will live there for as long as time.
These days lasted for three days, and the citizens of New York City became increasingly uneasy, because from time to time the media exposed reports of some released criminals committing crimes again.
The New York Police Department has tried its best. Although it is impossible to monitor all the criminals, a few that have attracted high attention are always under relatively strict surveillance.
Danny would go to Dick Reed's mother's house in the morning and evening just like clocking in every day. Although there was Detective 24 guarding the house, he was still a little worried.
The psychological profiling done by someone not only made him feel sick, but also convinced him that the real Maja Fakr would commit another crime.
Time came to the weekend afternoon, and Jack drove to the Frank family's villa. He was here to pick up Eileen and take her to the District Attorney's Office. Today was the Reagan family's customary weekend dinner time. He had also received an invitation originally, but he was busy these two days. Busy with renovation work for the future office.
The two-story building located between JFK Airport and Long Beach once belonged to a low-profile insurance company. It was later abandoned by the FBI after a fraud case.
Jack is not sure how the property rights of the small building came to the FBI, but it has obviously been idle for at least seven or eight years. Except for the main structure, there is nothing wrong with it, and the rest, including windows, partitions, pipelines, etc., all need to be repaired or even reinstalled. .
Although Dana Moger gave him more than half a year, considering the work efficiency of the American side, Jack really did not dare to delay the time, and urged the people in the logistics department to quickly find a construction company to start producing drawings.
After working for a long time today, he finally finalized the plan, and then he hurried to Frank's house. As soon as he entered, he found that the atmosphere in the family was not right.
After Linda finished eating, she took the old man Henry and several children out. James Regan was anxious to go on a date with his girlfriend. He met Jack and left in a hurry, walking into the remaining Regans in the kitchen. They were all collecting the leftovers listlessly with their heads drooped.
"What happened?" Everyone was familiar with each other now, so Jack had nothing to worry about and asked directly.
"Obviously it's because I'm not competent enough as the director." Frank laughed at himself.
"Dad" Erin hugged his arm and coquettishly, while Danny helped explain.
It turns out that this is still the aftermath of the DNA evidence incident, because the whole family is either a police officer or a prosecutor. This week has been a lot of trouble. Even the youngest son James Regan, who is still a patrolman, has been tired because of the sudden increase in 911 calls. That's enough.
This resulted in the atmosphere being a little too quiet when the family was having dinner. As a result, Danny's two sons and Erin's daughter made a few childish words and got everyone off guard.
Then James Regan started complaining about the irritation of having round-the-clock surveillance of a group of criminals who were knowingly guilty but released into society due to procedural issues, and questioned when this was done, and then Eileen and Danny started arguing as usual. They stopped talking, and finally Frank, who was already upset, got angry and everyone calmed down.
Jack shook his head speechlessly. This could be regarded as the daily routine of a family that loves each other. The way this family communicates their feelings is so special. "I thought you would exchange some good news. Didn't Erin just get rid of one of the bastards?" What?"
Jack's words immediately interested Danny, "What did my dear sister do?"
Frank's face brightened slightly and he turned to look at his daughter, "Is it the copper-smelting addict? Have you found new evidence?"
"I carried out forcible civil detention on him in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Mental Health Act." Irene Barabara said a lot, and everyone including Frank frowned.
"Please speak English." Danny frowned and expressed his feelings for everyone in the room.
"I found two psychiatrists to prove that he was sick, and then sent him to a mental hospital." Irene showed a proud smile on her face.
Danny opened his mouth in a funny way, "Who the hell are you? Where did you hide my sister who takes respecting human rights as her own duty and opposes the abuse of power?"
Frank favored his daughter as always, "Well done, honey, you are becoming more and more flexible now."
Danny was unconvinced and was about to continue arguing with Erin when a cell phone ring interrupted him, "Yes, what's the matter? Damn it, I'll be there soon."
"What happened?" Seeing him picking up his coat and heading out, Frank asked with concern.
"A woman's face was found scratched in a public restroom in Columbia Park, using a technique similar to Dick Reed's." Danny said and looked at Jack, obviously hoping that he would go to the scene with him.
Frank's face darkened again, "I thought your people had noticed him. Jack, you should go and have a look too. I will send Eileen to the office later.
Oh, and remember to come to my office with Ms. Moge tomorrow morning. Some things should have results. "
——
By the time the two arrived at the park, the area where the incident occurred had been cordoned off, and an ambulance arrived at the scene. The murdered woman had been carried onto a stretcher. Fortunately, her life was not in danger.
"The murder method is the same, and the binding method is similar. Jack, what do you think?" Danny turned around and asked after asking the police officer who received the call.
Jack sighed, "Obviously, Dick Reed has a copycat. Although the scratch shape is similar, the wound was too shallow and he was not decisive enough. It looked like it was done by a novice. The most important thing is that the victim was not injured. Sexual assault.”
Danny nodded to show that the hero had the same opinion, "I just made a call. The detective responsible for the surveillance said that the mother-in-law Faker has not been out from last night to today. He has been in his mother's house."
"Now the media is going to have a carnival again. We have to find a way to check the identities of the fans who picked up Dick Reed at the station that day."
Jack had a headache. He didn't seem to see any cameras nearby at the station that day. It seemed that he was going to deal with the media reporters. They should have taken some photos.
Danny suddenly seemed to have an epiphany and gave him a mysterious smile, "By the way, when he was released from prison that day, the boy was empty-handed, right? He had neither a backpack nor a box, right?"
"Huh? That's right." Jack didn't know why he asked that.
"Then where do you think his fan letters are now?" Danny chuckled.
"Of course in prison, wow, it seems that more than one person in the Reagan family has a brain." Jack couldn't help but joked.
