Legendary FBI Detective-Chapter 105: The Real Bandits
"Henry Mitchell, the boss of Golden Light Film.
According to the data, Golden Light Film was in very poor financial condition two months ago, with expenses exceeding income, and it was only a matter of time before it went bankrupt."
Mona picked up her laptop and left the interrogation room with Luo An. After returning to her own workstation, she typed rapidly on the keyboard, explaining:
"But last month, Golden Light Film suddenly received a large amount of funding.
Now the company is not only not going bankrupt, but it has also started preparing for a new movie."
Upon hearing this, Luo An frowned:
"Who funded this company? Can we find out?"
"You know, there are so many shell companies, overseas entities, and bad debts in Hollywood, it's impossible for just our Unit Five to clearly trace the source of this funding."
Mona shook her head, Hollywood has always been chaotic.
Except for industry insiders who might guess a thing or two based on their past experience, even Wall Street folks have been fooled by Hollywood.
"So, what you're saying is."
Seeing Mona shake her head and thinking back to the photo he saw on the computer, Luo An's eyebrows raised:
"The man sitting across from Henry drinking coffee in the photo has a problem?"
"Exactly!"
Mona gave Luo An a "you're quick on the uptake" glance and after a few keystrokes, she pulled up the man's identity information:
"The man sitting opposite Henry Mitchell is named Isaac Mitchell, 37 years old, Henry's half-brother from the same father.
He has served in a foreign military for over 10 years and just returned to the federation from overseas at the beginning of this year after retiring. His financial status is average, only middle class."
At this point, Mona's lips curled up slightly and after a few more keystrokes, a record of a plane ticket purchase popped up:
"Because of his military background, I just wanted to casually check if he had been to New York recently.
What I did not expect is that just one week before the first bank robbery, he actually flew to New York!
Not only that, but three days after the fourth bank robbery, Isaac left New York driving a newly purchased pickup truck."
After hearing Mona's words, Luo An's eyes lit up instantly.
Came to New York by plane, just to buy a pickup truck here?
Luo An stood up on the spot and clapped his hands to attract the attention of the technical personnel in Unit Five, then said loudly:
"Everyone! We have identified a new suspect!"
After briefly describing Isaac's situation, Luo An continued:
"Next, we need to track down all of Isaac's activities in New York! I want everyone to find out where he went after disembarking, where he lived, what he bought, and everything else!
I have a feeling that we are not far from catching this group of bank robbers!"
"No problem!"
"Leave it to us!"
After hearing Luo An's words, the technical personnel nodded decisively and agreed.
The next second, the busy clicking of keyboards began to echo throughout the Unit Five office area.
Seeing this, Luo An's lips slightly curved into a smirk, and then he turned to go to Augustus's office.
Thump! Thump!
After knocking a few times, Luo An heard Augustus's voice and pushed the door to enter.
However, as soon as he entered the office, Luo An noticed that Augustus's complexion didn't look too good.
His phone was thrown on the table, obviously having just hung up, and Augustus's dark face had turned pale with anger.
"Sorry, boss."
Luo An furrowed his brows and asked in a low voice:
"Should I come back later?"
"No need."
Augustus took a deep breath, regaining his composure, and looked at Luo An, inquiring:
"Did you discover any important clues?"
"Yes."
Luo An nodded, briefly described the situation with Golden Light Film, and finally explained:
"I now suspect that Isaac is very likely the one who funded Golden Light Film.
But since the companies and accounts in Hollywood are generally incomprehensible to the layperson, and no one in Unit Five understands these things, so..."
Although Luo An Greenwood was an accounting major, at this point, Luo An had almost completely forgotten that knowledge.
Counting on him to do accounting felt like he would need to go back to university for a refresher course.
"OK."
After listening to Luo An's briefing, Augustus understood what he meant and immediately agreed:
"You look into Isaac, and I'll handle the matter of Golden Light Film's source of funding."
"Okay, Chief."
Upon hearing Augustus's decisive and unwavering agreement, Luoma's eyebrows raised slightly.
Could it be that he also has connections within the IRS?
Turning to leave the team leader's office, a little more than an hour later, with the efforts of the No. 5 Investigation Team, Isaac's itinerary in New York was thoroughly checked.
"The surveillance video from the airport shows that after getting off the plane, Isaac took a taxi straight to Brooklyn."
William bent over to look at the images on the computer and continued:
"According to the surveillance footage, I got in touch with the taxi driver, who recalled carefully and remembered that the place Isaac went to was a small community in the Brooklyn Upper District."
The driver was unclear about which household Isaac visited after getting out of the taxi in the community.
Aside from the gates around this small community being surveilled by cameras, the inside was completely dark.
"However, when I was checking the residents' information in this community, I found a comrade who had fought alongside Isaac in a certain foreign conflict."
Mona continued with the information provided by William:
"This man is named Hulki Garcia, a white male, 39 years old, who returned to the federation one year earlier than Isaac.
No family, an alcoholic, fond of gambling, and very poor economically."
"Good."
Isaac and Hulki were both white and had military backgrounds, which were exactly the same as the robbers in the previous four robberies. Luo An nodded and then continued to ask:
"Is there any other information?"
On hearing this, William continued:
"At the time of the four robberies, the community surveillance did not detect the two leaving or entering the community."
Luo An's expression remained unchanged; after all, these two managed to survive the battlefield, evading surveillance was nothing to them.
"One more thing."
Mona tapped on the keyboard, then raised her head to speak:
"The location of this community is to the east of the bank robbery sites.
Moreover, the mother of a female employee involved in the first bank robbery lives in this community."
Upon hearing this, Luo An's eyelids twitched, and he tilted his head to ask:
"Where is this Hulki now?"
"He's already left New York."
Mona shrugged and pointed to the data on the computer:
"Like Isaac, three days after the fourth bank robbery, Hulki also bought a pickup truck and left New York with it.
The most recent transaction record shows Hulki in California, enjoying a sunbath on a yacht.
The only downside is, there seem to be no beauties on this yacht."
"Shit!"
"Fuck!"
"Son of a bitch!"
Hearing this, all the technicians of Investigation Team No. 5 cursed under their breath.
Leaving the team leader's office and discussing the situation with everyone, Augustus, who was stroking his chin and frowning, said:
"With the current situation, we can tentatively conclude that Isaac and Hulki are the real robbers behind the four previous robberies.
However, the accounts at Golden Light Film are still unclear in the short term, and all the information you've mentioned are indirect clues. We need to find some direct evidence."
"This..."
Hearing Augustus's words, the technicians of Investigation Team No. 5 simultaneously furrowed their brows.
"We can go check the house where Hulki used to live and the warehouses he rented before."
Luo An let out a laugh, drawing everyone's attention, and pointed to the data on the computer:
"Both places have not been rented out again, we can go there and search. Maybe we will find some useful clues."
Reesi and Brooke were still on their way back, so after a brief discussion with the agents, Luo An took Mona to the equipment storeroom.

On the road, sitting in the passenger seat and looking down at the surveillance footage from the days before the bank robbery, Mona, feeling the generally steady pace of the SUV, had a puzzled look on her face.
What on earth is wrong with Luo An today?
"We're here."
The dark SUV slowly stopped on the road diagonally opposite the community.
Because it was impossible to determine if someone would inform Hulki after the event, in order not to startle the snake, Luo An and Mona only brought FBI equipment into the car and did not wear it on their bodies this time.
Both were dressed in their regular clothes, posing as an ordinary couple looking for a house.
But they still had to bring their handguns.
After carefully checking the Glock 18 and its corresponding extended magazines for any issues, Luo An's mouth curled into a slight smile before opening the car door and getting out.
