Chapter 0426: A New Round of Struggle
Chicago has recently been in a state of panic for some people, and a series of brutal killings have sent the city's residents into a panic.
Rumor has it that this is a new gang of drug dealers, and no one knows where they came from, but they will cut off the heads of everyone who opposes them.
So far, three officers have been killed, including the former Sheriff Bird.
Police are a high-risk profession at all times, especially in a country where gun ownership is legal.
There are also many gangster figures who have been killed, and these people are very bold, and no one has dared to be so crazy in Chicago since Scarface Capone became a thing of the past.
But now it happened, when one night Paul's henchman, the No. 2 boss of the Chicago Mafia, Papo.
After almost being out of a strip club, things get trickier.
"George, you've got to help me find out who they are. Paul, who got the news, dialed the phone to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.
"Listen to Paul, S.H.I.E.L.D. is getting a lot of attention right now, and we can't do it anymore like we used to, it's your business, solve it in your way. ”
S.H.I.E.L.D. can no longer have contact with the gangsters, and their cooperation has been terminated for a long time, while S.H.I.E.L.D. is preparing for an overseas branch.
S.H.I.E.L.D. is fighting for an Army procurement order from the Department of Defense, and there can be no room for error at this time.
If a defense supplier who is involved with the gang is exposed after someone finds out, is there anything more bullshitty than this?
Leave the security of national defense to the godfather of the gang, or the boss behind him?
"I just need intelligence, and I'll take care of the rest. Paul said.
"I'm sorry, this was the boss's decision, but I can give you a call and call him. George gave him a set of phone calls.
After dialing the other party's number, Paul learned that it was the number of the FBI Chicago branch, and the person who spoke to him was Melvin Purvis, the person in charge.
Melvin and the headquarters did not have a good quarrel, and the Director Hoover, who was accustomed to being in control, hated the head of the branch with dazzling achievements.
Treat him as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh.
But after Melvin gained the support of several members of Congress, he turned the Chicago branch into a bucket.
There is naturally Li Zitao's credit in this, otherwise how could a senior agent get the support of congressmen.
So after receiving a call from Paul, he told him what he had.
Melvin would have preferred the FBI to take over the case, but he could only watch from the sidelines until he was authorized to do so.
It's a frustrating feeling that after being ostracized by headquarters, he can only intervene in such cases if the state or city government offers to ask for assistance.
In Chicago, Paul rushed back overnight and gathered all his men to meet at his maroon bar.
"My people found out that there is a group of Colombians who want to build a North American transit station here, and as for what to sell, you know the details. ”
"Thanks, Melvin, I'll remember this favor. Paul hung up and turned to look at his men in the luxurious suite.
"It's the Colombians who did it, find them, and kill them. Hearing the godfather's words, everyone left the room with a low roar.
......
......
Early in the morning, Li Zitao appeared in the living room in loose pajamas and a newspaper in his hand, and Dan had prepared coffee for him.
"Charlie, did you watch the news?" said Mary, straightening her hair.
After getting married, women will change a little, the most obvious is that Mary is becoming more and more relaxed at home, and she will not go out of the house without dressing up and putting on makeup.
"Yes, I saw it. Li Zitao raised his head and asked for a fragrant kiss, and Mary lowered her head amusefully and kissed him on the lips.
"Well... Pleasant morning. Li Zitao closed his eyes intoxicated and said.
"If men were all talkative like you, there wouldn't be so many single men and women. Mary smiled with satisfaction.
"How is it possible, I don't have a doppelganger. Putting the newspaper on the table, Li Zitao stepped forward and hugged his wife again.
Today she is leaving for Paris to have a family dinner with her godparents, talk about what happened in the Persian Gulf, and then enjoy a cruise with her girlfriends.
"Well, breakfast is ready. Mary laughed and wanted to push him away, and Li Zitao's occasional nonsense was like the lubricant in the relationship between husband and wife.
For both him and Mary, it can make the two feel more relaxed and harmonious together.
After breakfast, the maid was ready to salute, and the motorcade was already waiting at the door.
"How many paparazzi are out there?" Li Zitao asked Lu Qiang, his head of security.
Regarding his boss's call for reporters as 'paparazzi,' when he heard it for the first time, Lu Qiang couldn't agree more.
They are like dogs with a keen sense of smell, and no matter where there is a little wind and grass, they can't escape their dog nose.
"About 20 or so. Lu Qiang smiled.
"Looks like I'm going to put on my glasses. Taking out the glasses from the keepall travel bag, Li Zitao personally sent her out.
"Look, they're coming. A group of paparazzi pressed the shutter like crazy, and the bodyguards kept them out of the car.
"Your Royal Highness, can you know your itinerary this time?" a reporter asked in a shout.
"Simple trip, relaxing, enjoying the sun, sea breeze and having dinner with the family. Mary said with a smile on her face.
The upturned curvature of the corners of the mouth is just right, which will not make people feel indifferent, and with a bit of unattainable distance, like a blooming iceberg snow lotus.
"Will Charlie come with you, too? Do you have any plans for when you will have children?"
"He still has a lot of important work to do, and the brief separation will make us miss each other more, thank you. After looking up and kissing him lightly on the face, Li Zitao opened the car door and sent her into the car to each other, and the answer ended here.
When she is in front of the public, she is always so noble and elegant, and there will never be a problem of gaffes.
"Have a nice trip. After the convoy arrived at the airport, Li Zitao stepped forward to hug and say goodbye.
"Help me greet her. Mary whispered, and turned to get on the plane.
After the Princess took off, his Gulfstream One appeared in front of him after a while, and Li Zitao was going to the Free City to see Garbo.
The greeting Mary had just said was meant for her, and he hadn't told Mary, but she always knew.
The two women who were most entangled with him seemed to be in contact with each other more often than he was.
“boss。 "Ava and Tia rushed over from the club.
"Did you bring the briefing?" asked Li Zitao casually.
"It's all here. Ava lifted the document she was holding in her hands.
"Let's get on the plane!" greeted Lily's sweet smile as the group boarded the plane.
Flipping through the briefings of the past two days, Li Zitao remembered what happened in Chicago again, closed the file and asked, "Does anyone know what the salary of a police officer is?"
