Chapter 71: Destroying Careers, and Families
[Chapter 71: Destroying Careers, Destroying Families]
The Hollywood precinct was under the management of the West Los Angeles division, where four suspects were brought in after receiving urgent medical treatment. Hawke, Edward, Eric, and Frank, who were involved, decided to go there as well.
The police had obtained copies of the internal and external surveillance footage, and since Hawke was a known figure at West Los Angeles precinct, everything went smoothly. Frank even made a phone call, and a female police officer recognized Hawke and discreetly contacted Erica.
Once Hawke finished his statement and exited the office, he saw Erica waiting at the door.
"Don't you have patrol duty?" Hawke asked, noticing Erica's fully armed uniform, and he noticed her police rank had been raised.
Erica knew how to play it cool: "A colleague of mine saw you being brought in and called me. I was worried something might've happened to you, so I came to check."
She asked, "What happened?"
"It might be trouble from the news I was working on. A few gang members broke into my studio to steal something," Hawke casually explained.
Erica raised an eyebrow: "You modified the safe with an electric shock?"
