"Two more news."
Seeing that this woman didn't intend to tell how she got the information, Kai didn't bother her too much, but asked her to tell the other two pieces of information.
Everyone has secrets, and no one will trust another stranger without any reason. At least Kai himself will not leak his intelligence sources at will. So just skip those pointless conversations. The information this woman provided really moved him. Of course, her identity as 'Hannibal' was in her hands, which was why Kai was willing to trade. Although Kai is not afraid of Hannibal's identity being exposed, it would be troublesome if he were to be exposed.
When Elizabeth heard this, she knew their deal was sealed. “A pleasure to work with.”
After saying this, Elizabeth handed Kai two pieces of information. "By the way, please forgive me for Nikki's trouble. She is a newcomer that our company is highly recommending. We don't want her to have an accident, and I believe you, the police, don't want it either."
Then he stood up and left without Kai saying anything. This woman was trying not to show up, and then use the power of Kay and the Chicago Police Department to fight against Kingpin. But it happened that she was using conspiracy, even if she knew she was being used, she had to refuse to agree. After all, isn’t that what the police do?
…
Downstairs of Malaji's apartment, a white extended-length Lincoln slowly drove away. In the car, a black man covered in gold handed a glass of red wine to Elizabeth. This black man was exactly the guy Kai had seen before, with shiny black skin and golden skin, nicknamed Bishop.
"Is it really necessary to reveal our identity?" The bishop took off his gold-framed sunglasses and asked unwillingly.
"It's necessary. Our career has reached a bottleneck. If we don't want to be just gangsters all the time, we must find a breakthrough. That policeman is a good breakthrough." Elizabeth doesn't seem to be good at red wine, just like drinking beer. , drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp. She looked very rude, but she looked very capable. "He has something to do with the Stark Group. If we can hook up with the Stark Group, it will only take a moment to clear him."
"But he's a policeman!" The bishop still didn't trust Kai.
"He is our compatriot!" Elizabeth closed her eyes and leaned on the backrest, saying coldly. "Why do you think he can help us if we don't reveal our identity?"
In the minds of mutants like Elizabeth, Kai is a mutant just like them. As for mutants, the only ones they can trust are mutants. Lingdie Entertainment has been developing for so many years, but it has never been able to see the light of day. It's not that they can't clear their name, but they don't dare to clear their name at all.
In the past, when they were making small fuss, it was impossible to get into the eyes of those big shots, but once they become clear and powerful, they will definitely attract a lot of unnecessary prying eyes. Whether it's out of ambition or a desire to keep their mutant identities a secret, this isn't a good thing.
But Elizabeth was unwilling to do so. They didn't want to live like mice in the darkness forever. What happened to the mutants? Don’t mutants have the right to pursue a better life?
But here, someone said. Elizabeth is doing well. She has a good entertainment company, a small gang to help her, and even her car is an extended Lincoln. Why is her life so bad? Many people are envious.
It's wrong to say that, human nature is always greedy. These lives are easily accessible to Elizabeth and are not worth cherishing at all. She is not satisfied with her current life at all. She wants to be a master and be respected wherever she goes, instead of being able to dominate in some dark corners like she is now. This is not what she wants, or in other words, these things can no longer satisfy her.
Until she knew the details of Kai, she felt that Kai was a good breakthrough point.
First of all, Kai is a mutant like them (she thinks of herself), and she also has another identity of Kai - Hannibal. Besides being of the same kind, there is another reason why mutants only trust mutants. That is, if a mutant betrays another mutant, the identity of the betrayer cannot be maintained!
Second, Kay had what she needed. Relationship with Stark Group. That's right, Elizabeth just wants to rely on the behemoth Stark Group to clear her name. With such a behemoth behind them, they can avoid many, many troubles.
And now, there is a very good opportunity. Stark Industries Expo this September!
An expo is not just a group of industrial companies putting out a bunch of products for sale. That is not an expo. It was a multifaceted event. Cultural performances are absolutely indispensable. As long as the Stark Group can hand over this aspect to Lingdie Entertainment, they don't need to hand it all over to them. They only need to give a part of it to them, which also means huge benefits. Having a large chaebol like Stark Group personally invite Lingdie Entertainment to join the expo is a kind of recognition in itself.
What's more, the Stark Industry Expo is originally an international event. From the news released by the expo, all industrial groups among the world's top 500 have confirmed that they will participate. Plus some secondary powerhouses, it is definitely a global event. It is a high-profile event. Once Lingdie Entertainment shows up at this event, it means that they have launched their brand!
All in all, there were many benefits, and Elizabeth felt that was her stage. It's not that Elizabeth doesn't want to be in politics or business, but unfortunately, her birth and education are doomed, and her development prospects in politics and business are extremely limited. On the other hand, the barriers to entry in the entertainment industry are much lower.
There is a saying that if black people and people of color want to succeed in American society, they can only sing and dance rap and basketball. Don’t say anything about American liberal democracy. It’s all a lie. The class restrictions in the United States are no better than other countries, or even worse. Those traditional elite industries have always been controlled by WASPs (this world is more serious, at least in the 2008 election) , no Aoguanhai).
On the contrary, if you can carve out a way in the entertainment industry and then develop into other industries, it will be easier. The entertainment industry has always been a center for leftists, although there is also discrimination there. But it is much stronger than other industries.
It can be said that this woman is indeed ambitious, but she is not a fool. She has a very perfect plan.
"Besides, do you think we can really fight against Kingpin without the help of the police and Kai?"
"us……"
"Are you willing to abandon our current career and go to those remote villages in a state of anonymity?"
Kingpin is always more terrifying than what is shown in the information, he is a monster! Although he is indeed an ordinary person, in the eyes of mutants, he is more like a monster than they mutants! He has a crazy and cunning mind, unparalleled charisma, and more importantly, his ability to execute beyond ordinary people. Not even Elizabeth is willing to face such a person. The superpowers of mutants are not invincible after all.
"But I'm always worried." The bishop actually didn't have as much ambition as Elizabeth, but he wasn't willing to give up everything he had. But he was still worried.
"As long as you are doing something, it is impossible to be without risk. What we have to do now is to gamble!"
…
Kay doesn't understand Elizabeth's ambitions, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. Ambition is not actually a derogatory word. If you put it another way, it is completely a complimentary word - dream.
It's much better when you look at it this way, right, but it actually means the same thing.
She, Elizabeth, wanted to pursue a better development, and there was nothing wrong with that.
Kai is now more concerned about the other two pieces of information in the information.
The first news: The Haitian gang is going to make a new move, and this time the madmen have their thoughts on Tapia.
As I said before, all of Tapia’s accounts are very clean. No criminal transaction records were found at all. No one knows how the money works, so Chicago police have always suspected that Tapia had a professional money laundering team.
But Elizabeth gave Kai a surprise. This information contained Tapia's money laundering methods.
This guy uses the most primitive way to conduct transactions, that is, cash transactions! He never uses electronic transfers or bank transfers, not even Swiss banks. He only uses the most primitive method, cash transactions. At the same time, there is indeed a money laundering team behind him.
He only collects old, small-denomination banknotes, which are then exchanged for larger-denomination new banknotes by the money laundering team, and he only takes those new banknotes.
Although doing this is very troublesome, and some profits will be eaten by the money laundering team in the process, there is one advantage, safety! There is no record of the entire current transaction. The police have nowhere to look if they want. But what's interesting is that the information seems to have been obtained by the Haitian gang, and they want to make a fortune.
Directly rob Tapia's money laundering team. Although the information did not give the specific time and place of the operation, it is not a big problem. It is estimated that it will be these two days. Kai and the others only need to keep an eye on the Haitians. As long as they find the money, and Tapia's money laundering team, then they have evidence.
The second piece of news is a bit more explosive, and it’s about Kingpin.
Tapia killed Kingpin's agent in Chicago, causing their goods to be confiscated by the police. This account will not be settled. Already there was news that the Kingpin would send someone to Chicago. As for who it is, Elizabeth is not very clear, but it is said to be the killer of the high table.
As if because this information was too vague, Elizabeth included some information on the high table.
In the underground world, there is a killer organization at the top of the pyramid - the High Table. This organization is managed by its Supreme Council. Its Supreme Council is composed of 12 elders and is responsible for managing the underground killer world; the 12 elders come to There are 12 powerful gang families around the world, so the High Table itself can be regarded as an international gang alliance. However, the High Table's position is more neutral. According to the rules of the High Table, except for the 12 elders, they will never appear on the assassination list. No one inside or outside the country cannot be killed, not even members of the 12 families. The premise is that you can afford to pay the price and the retaliation that comes with it.
Kai looked at the information and felt a little confused, why all the messy stuff came out. Is the world so cruel now?
But soon, Kai threw it aside. It was not him who should be troubled, but Teresa.
…
Sure enough, after Teresa got the information Kai gave her, she was completely confused. Her first reaction was that Kai had been tricked. But she soon gave up the idea because it was unnecessary. The Voodoo Gang wants to clear their name, which is not unacceptable to the police department. In fact, it is definitely a good thing for the police that such a gang, which does not commit serious crimes, runs away to do legitimate business. Chicago is already chaotic enough.
Of course, this kind of thing would never appear in a formal document or speech, and everyone knew it tacitly. The Voodoo Gang wants to clear their name, and the police department is happy to see it succeed and will not set up obstacles and even provide some conveniences.
In this situation where the man is deliberately stealing someone's love, the Voodoo Gang won't do anything wrong. Besides, what's the point of cheating?
Therefore, the credibility of these three documents is very high.
After that, Theresa went directly to Director Cooper with these three pieces of information, and then Director Cooper took Theresa to find the real boss.
What they talked about, no one knew. All I know is that there was no further discussion of the matter between Kingpin and Gaotai Table, and they were just handed over to the Detective Bureau to deal with Tapia!
This wasn't surprising, Kai had guessed it from the beginning. Regardless of whether Jin Bin or Gaotai Table have developed to this point, if no one at the top is aware of it, then it would be too easy for those in power to take it seriously. There is a reason why they can exist. There is nothing new under the sun.
Fortunately, both the superiors and Director Cooper had some sense of moral integrity and agreed to Elizabeth's request. and promised to act in accordance with the informant law. In other words, they promised to keep it secret and not let anyone know that it was Elizabeth who revealed the information to them.
In fact, this kind of thing is nothing. This information is confidential to the general public, but not necessarily to them. Elizabeth's ability to reveal the news that Kingpin was about to enter Chicago was definitely a great achievement for Chicago's upper echelons.
Whether it is the police or the real upper class, their attitude towards such a cross river dragon is very clear, that is, they reject him.
The current situation in Chicago is chaotic enough, but there is order in the chaos, and balance still exists. But if a predator like Kingpin enters Chicago, only God knows what the situation will be like.
This is also the reason why the above are so decisive to deal with Tapia. As long as Tapia is in jail, the police will take the initiative. You must know that Tapia is not easy to deal with. Under normal circumstances, the superiors will not allow them to provoke this bastard at will.
"What? Us again?" Marcus quit immediately after learning that he and Mike needed to monitor the Haitian gang. "I haven't been home for a few days, and more importantly, my butt isn't healed yet! You can't do this! I'll sue you in the guild!"
Teresa looked at Marcus from the corner of her eyes, with a look of disgust on her face: "Okay, you can go and rest holding your big black butt. Mike, you and Kai will act together, and by the way, this time I will fight for it from above. You three should share the bonus that comes!”
Unexpectedly, Marcus jumped up immediately when he heard about the bonus.
"Come on! Let me move, Jedi men attack! Let those Haitians see how powerful the Chicago police are! Long live the CPD!!!"
Mike looked over with great contempt.
"Don't look at me like that, my babies have always wanted a stand-up swimming pool, and God knows, a pile of plastic is selling for $3,800! I need the money! I'm every good dad here to pay my bills!"
"Fake, is it illegal for my dad to give me money? Also, what the hell is a trestle swimming pool? Can that thing be called a swimming pool?"
Okay, the two of them started again.
