Chapter 19: Empty Account
Lisa looked at Arlen, "Probably because the woman lied to him." She smacked her lips, and her eyes were a reminiscent light, "I wish that I had taken the video. It would have been viral, Captain was so handsome when he was arresting them. I would have gotten a lot of money."
Ravi stopped listening. He looked through the glass window where Arlen's attention was captured by the laptop on his table, his lashes lowered in concentration. What was on the laptop that he was looking at? Did he really pay this much attention to every single case that comes into his lap? Why did he not want them to forward the case to the Financial Fraud Unit? Did he know that it was not a simple money disappearance but a gambling case?
He furrowed his borrows, his head pounding a bit. He did not like thinking and solving mysteries.
He looked at the empty holding cells and something came to his mind, "Where are the gamblers that you said that you guys arrested?"
Lisa was pressing her phone with her legs crossed, "We let them go."
"Captain Sinclair let them go? Why?"
"We did not have enough space to hold them all. And most of them were old people."
Ravi's face twitched, "So he just let them go?" He was confused. Why? Why?
"He had already gotten what he wanted from them."
