Chapter 976 In Hawaii (Part 3)
Like Jack's wanted criminal team, the atmosphere of "Five-O" is usually quite relaxed. When there is no case, everyone can do their own things. There is no rule in the office that people must stay. Just report to each other.
Just when everyone packed up and prepared to go out, taking the new "nephew" to taste the best shrimp rice in Hawaii, Danny, who had just stood aside and listened to the voice message, suddenly changed his face.
"What happened?" Cheng Hao asked in a strange way, and Kono also looked at him with concern.
Danny didn't bother to respond, and directly made a call, "Rachel, where is Grace?
Stay there, I will be there in five minutes."
After hanging up the phone, he hurried out, and just when he reached the door, he stopped and walked back. Jack picked up his car keys from the table, but did not hand them to him, but walked out with him.
"What happened? I'll drive."
"Rachel and Grace were carjacked." Danny's lips trembled, and he was confused for a while.
"Are they okay?" Kono and Cheng Hao also hurriedly followed.
Danny's eyes lost focus for a moment, and he shook his head vigorously to try to calm himself down, "It's not clear yet, they are now in the Honolulu Police Department."
Hearing that it was the police station and not the hospital, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Cheng Hao also took out his car keys, "We will go with you."
Danny's plainclothes police car was a silver Chevrolet Camaro. The word "Camaro" means Bumblebee, and it is also the prototype of the Autobot "Bumblebee" in the "Transformers" movie.
This two-door muscle car is similar to Jack's Firebird. The two seats in the back are very crowded and can only accommodate children and petite women. Cheng Hao drove a Ford F150 that was also modified with hidden police lights and followed them.
HPD (Honolulu Police Department) is very close to the "Five-O" office. Jack rushed to the police station parking lot in five minutes. Before the car stopped, Danny got out of the car anxiously.
When Jack parked the car in the parking space, he walked into the police station with Kono and Cheng Hao, and saw Danny hugging his little daughter tightly, almost crying.
"Aloha!" Jack smiled and greeted Grace. The little girl was very cute and innocent. When she saw the handsome big brother, she took the initiative to open her hands and asked for a hug.
Jack picked her up with one hand, then shook his wrist and took out a lollipop from his fingers like a magic trick, making the little sister clap her hands and laugh. The tension caused by the previous shock was gone.
Jack handed Grace to Kono who followed behind him, nodded to Danny, and walked with him to the other side where the brown-haired beauty was taking notes.
It can be seen that Grace perfectly inherited the beauty from her mother. Danny's ex-wife Rachel is star-level in both appearance and temperament. At first glance, she has a taste of Sophie Marceau.
"They held guns at the time and forced me to open the car door." Rachel was narrating the incident to the police officer who was taking notes.
"Are you okay?" After all, she was his ex-wife and the mother of his daughter, Danny asked softly.
Rachel still had a little panic on her face, and her eyes were very complicated when she looked at Danny. She felt as if she had finally seen the backbone of the family and wanted to ask for comfort, but suddenly realized that she was someone else's wife.
"Ms. Edwards." Cheng Hao walked to the side of the few people with an old Asian police officer, "HPD found your Mercedes-Benz, the brand-name bags in the car are still there, the cash and credit cards are all inside, and nothing was stolen."
"This makes me feel very fortunate, thank you." Rachel forced a smile and thanked the old Asian police officer and Cheng Hao.
Danny frowned, "Mercedes-Benz? Are you driving Stan's car?"
Jack had never seen Danny's ex-wife, let alone his ex-wife's current husband, but he heard from Danny that Rachel is now married to a wealthy businessman, who should be called Stan Edwards.
"Yes, he is in Thailand for business now, and sometimes I drive his car." Rachel didn't understand why her ex-husband was concerned about this.
Danny and Jack looked at each other. Jack saw the hesitation in his eyes and turned to Rachel and extended his hand. "Hello, Ms. Edwards, I'm Jack Tavola. I think you should have heard Danny mention me."
"Oh, of course, please call me Rachel." Rachel stretched out her hand and shook Jack's hand, with a surprised expression on her face, "Danny once showed me your old photos, but you were completely different back then."
Jack had never sent Danny his own photos. It is estimated that Rachel still saw the bean sprout appearance of her predecessor before she crossed over. She smiled awkwardly and then made a serious gesture of invitation.
"Okay, Rachel, but I think Danny and I may need to talk to you privately."
Although he didn't know the whole story, there was obviously something fishy about this carjacking.
It is true that Hawaii's security level cannot be compared with that of the University of Tokyo. Petty thefts and even robbery of tourists' property happen from time to time, but gun-related cases are definitely far lower than the average level in other parts of the United States.
Armed carjacking is a serious crime in Hawaii. Within less than an hour of the incident, the entire car and the property inside were found intact by the police. What was the other party trying to do?
The three of them walked aside, and Danny rubbed his brows and considered his words for a long time before he said, "First of all, Rachel, I want to tell you that carjacking with a gun is a felony with a minimum sentence of ten years.
Here, anyone who plans to do this, who is willing to take such a big risk, there is no way they can give up in just an hour.
If it's for money, they can quickly earn at least 20,000 US dollars by shipping your car to any country in Southeast Asia. It's impossible for them to abandon the car, let alone keep your luxury bag and the cash and cash inside. Credit card, you know what I mean? "
Rachel shook her head in confusion and cast a pleading look at Jack beside her, "I don't quite understand. Is he trying to imply something?"
Jack was completely unfamiliar with this young and beautiful "ex-aunt", and some of his words would not be convincing even if he said them out loud. He could only wave his head to Danny, indicating that the other party should listen to what he continued to say.
"Has Stan behaved unusually recently?" Danny hesitated for a long time before asking the question.
"No!" Rachel's voice turned cold instantly, and her feminine sensibility instantly took over the high ground of her IQ.
Perhaps it was because he was so familiar with his ex-wife that Danny spoke so carefully, “I just think I think it’s very possible that someone wants to send some kind of message this way.
A threat or warning, warning Stan that the other party is capable of harming you."
"Stop!" Rachel raised her hand to stop his next words, "Stan is my husband, he is Grace's stepfather, and he is also a businessman. There is absolutely no way he will be involved in anything illegal. ”
This illogical explanation did nothing but show her excitement at the moment, "I just want to take Grace home now."
Jack put his hand on Danny's shoulder to stop what he was about to say, "I think it's better that we send Rachel and Grace home first, and then come back to do some investigation just in case. "
