CHAPTER 446: CHAPTER 272 THE LAS VEGAS SERIAL MURDER-DUMPING CASE_4

He stood up, stretched lazily, and tossed a cigarette to Cheston En from the table, gesturing for him to sit down. "You speak well. So, you should already have a basic understanding of the serial murder and body dumping cases happening in Las Vegas, right?"

Cheston En nodded. "According to the information we’ve gathered, the victims are all females, aged between 18 and 25, blonde, beautiful and striking. Their occupations included students, white-collar workers, and waitresses. No connections have been discovered between them, and the circumstances of their deaths are horrific."

He paused, licked his lips, and then continued, "In one month, Las Vegas has already seen five identical murders.

"The victims were all dumped by the murderer on the side of secluded roads.

"The condition in which their bodies were found was also strikingly similar and horrific.

"They all had large lacerations in their lower body.

"Around the wounds were signs of electric shock.

"The medical examiner surmised that the murderer, while they were still alive, cruelly used some kind of electrical weapon to penetrate them.

"The murderer then cold-heartedly emptied the victims’ abdominal cavities through these wounds and arranged their viscera into the shape of a flower, placing it beside their bodies.

"According to the medical examiner’s reports, all five female victims died between one and three a.m.

"The locations where the bodies were dumped were also the primary crime scenes.

"Las Vegas’s unique climate meant that by the time police discovered the bodies, any tracks or traces at the scene were already covered by sand and dust. This is the main reason the case has seen no progress."

CLAP. CLAP. CLAP.

Facing Cheston En’s comprehensive description, Dean couldn’t help but clap.

He praised generously, "Cheston En, you’re much better than I imagined, at least much more so than my previous team members!"

Cheston En had been away for just over ten minutes. In that short time, he had not only seen through Dean’s intention to test him but had also proactively sought out a former instructor he knew to get the details of the case and had remembered it all. The key thing was that he could explain it all to Dean in an organized manner. This was competence!

Upon hearing the praise, Cheston En sighed in relief. Dean’s reaction probably meant he had been accepted.

"Alright, Cheston En, time is the victims’ lifeline. Get in touch with the FBI office in Las Vegas immediately and tell them we’re taking this case!"

"Yes, Agent Dean!"

Hearing Dean say ’we,’ Cheston En walked out of the office with a smile on his face.

This was the FBI training base in California. Dean and his team were only temporarily staying there. After leaving this time, they might not return. So, before heading to Las Vegas, Dean unapologetically requested a batch of weapons and ammunition from the base and loaded it all into his Hummer.

Cheston En, meanwhile, had already contacted the Las Vegas detective bureau’s liaison.

Once everything was in order, amid the roar of the Hummer’s aggressive engine, the two set off on a journey that would make a name for them across the United States!

Meanwhile, Dean was on his journey to crack the case. In the Commonwealth, his girlfriend Niel, after a tearful farewell kiss from her mother, happily dragged her suitcase onto a private plane headed for Los Angeles.

She had completed all the assessments her mother had set for her and had successfully obtained the start-up capital sponsored by her mother.

Now was the time to return to the United States and reunite with Dean.

Niel hadn’t notified Dean in advance. She wanted to give him a surprise and also conduct a spot check to see if Dean had been misbehaving behind her back! If he had! Humph! She would definitely make that philandering man suffer terribly!

On the plane, Niel felt as if time was crawling by.

As soon as she got off the plane, assisted by the attentive crew, she hurried out through the VIP passageway. Preoccupied with anticipating Dean’s reaction to seeing her, she collided with a handsome man who had just emerged from another VIP passageway.

Next to the handsome man, a fashionably dressed blonde woman followed.

When her companion fell, the blonde woman glared viciously at Niel. She quickly knelt, revealing a stunning cleavage, and cooed, "Ross, dear, are you alright...?"

The handsome man had been hit quite hard.

He groggily stood up from the ground and replied, "I’m fine..."

Niel stood by, her face showing embarrassment and apology. She was just about to say sorry when she saw the man’s face clearly and let out a surprised exclamation, "Ross?"

Ross, hearing Niel call his name, looked up and smiled. "Niel, long time no see."

「On the other hand.」

As Niel arrived in Los Angeles, Dean had also driven to the FBI’s Las Vegas branch.
