This night is destined to be extremely lively.
First, the evening news broke the results of the Stark Group's board of directors, and Tony Stark's ultimate counterattack!
Fortunately, the stock market had already closed when the news was broadcast, otherwise... those speculators who plan to make a big fortune should be ready to go to the rooftop!
This news was so explosive that all TV stations in the United States were reporting the news for a while. I don’t know how many experts and professors expressed their opinions one after another, but most of them continued to be negative about Stark. After all, in the eyes of the outside world, today's board meeting was the last chance to save the Stark Group, but as a result... they lost!
Where the hell can you reason with this?
Anyway, the experts and professors can’t understand what’s going on in the Stark board of directors. How come there are still people supporting Tony Stark? Isn't this a joke?
But no matter how they analyze or comment, the overall situation of the board of directors has been decided. All they can wait for is the opening tomorrow.
In short, tomorrow is definitely a very important day. I don’t know how many investors will hate Tony Stark tomorrow.
And just when people are concerned about economic news, Los Angeles, ah no, at least the judicial circles in Washington are shaken by a scandal.
DEA agents sell drugs.
Unlike other law enforcement agencies, the DEA's goal is relatively straightforward and simple: cracking down on drug traffickers at the source, inspecting the origin of cocaine, and arresting the leaders of drug trafficking groups are their basic strategies.
To talk about the rise of DEA, we have to mention South America. The Andes Mountains and Amazon Jungle of South America are the best areas for cocaine production. Whether it is the left-wing Mexican government or the guerrillas in the jungle, drugs are undoubtedly the most efficient and economical source of food and ammunition for them. Under the light of freedom, the number of drug addicts in the United States has increased exponentially. Colombia, in particular, has gradually become the largest supplier to the United States. While selling marijuana, Mexico has also become an important drug transportation logistics channel. Drug traffickers send the goods provided by Colombia to the US-Mexico border for separation, and then share the profits with the suppliers.
This creates a huge trade activity in which the United States runs a perfect deficit, with tens of billions of dollars flowing out of the United States every year. Even many business people are worried that in the long run, the drug trade will destroy normal commercial activities in the United States.
So on July 1, 1973, in order to integrate anti-drug agencies, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) was formally established under the promotion of Nixon.
The DEA's strong rise is inseparable from its huge branches and specialized law enforcement forces. DEA has 92 foreign offices in 70 countries and more than 10,000 employees, including more than 4,600 domestic and foreign agents and 800 intelligence analysts.
This creates a behemoth!
But now, among this behemoth, there are actually people who have openly abandoned their responsibilities and positions, and blatantly violated the law for drug trafficking! ! !
Remember, the original intention and responsibility of the DEA is to combat drugs!
This is such a slap in the face!
The moment Norman escaped, the DEA immediately took control of Norman's immediate boss, Deputy Director Choate of the Los Angeles DEA Branch. And communicate with the Los Angeles Police Department as soon as possible.
They want to cover it!
This is a common tactic of bureaucrats. This has nothing to do with which country the bureaucrat is from. In fact, bureaucrats all over the world are proficient in this. From the perspective of bureaucrats, as long as this matter is not exposed, it can be covered up, and it is nothing more than paying a certain price.
But will Los Angeles help the DEA cover up the situation?
Of course it's impossible!
The LAPD helped cover up the DEA, what should they do themselves?
You must know that the gunfight that took place that day has been broadcast by the TV station! Two patrolmen even died as a result, and six civilians in the hotel, including the hotel owner, were killed! Tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition were consumed in the gun battle, and the sound of gunfire could be heard even three kilometers away.
If it hadn't been for Tony Stark's rescue, today's national headlines would have been 'A gunfight between the Los Angeles police and DEA agents, resulting in a large number of civilian casualties. '
Thinking about this eye-catching title, the top brass of the Los Angeles Police Department almost knelt down and offered incense to Tony.
Of all the professions, police officers are probably the most afraid of making headlines, because generally speaking, police officers are not in the headlines for any good reasons. After all, in the eyes of most people, it is natural for the police to catch thieves, and there is nothing to say about solving crimes. Naturally, the media will not waste headlines, but if the police do something bad... Haha, most people are willing to do it anyway. Scold the police.
In short, the Los Angeles police, who had so easily escaped with Tony Stark, could not help the DEA hide the matter at the expense of others. What the hell, are you letting the police take the blame for the trouble caused by the DEA? How could such a good thing happen!
No way!
The DEA also knows that doing so is a bit embarrassing. Keke's question is that the matter is serious. If it is still exposed... it will really be a disaster.
So the two sides kept arguing, and the DEA even wanted to take Kai away.
Don't think it's an exaggeration. Bureaucrats will do anything to cover up the situation.
Unfortunately, Los Angeles is no longer a vegetarian. The key is that Kai is not a vegetarian. People from the DEA came under the guise of the Ministry of Justice and wanted to take Kai away. Unfortunately, Kai did not follow common sense and directly detained these people... To be fair, their DEA certificates were genuine, and so were the documents from the Department of Justice. , why should you detain others?
But that's exactly what Kai did.
And they even said they were fake.
If you have the guts, file a complaint!
Can the DEA file a lawsuit?
cannot……
The original plan was to control Kai and then use means to change his confession, or simply let Kai take the blame. This is a shady and insidious method. If it doesn't happen, it's easy to talk about anything, but once it's out in the open... no one will take advantage of someone else's fire. Although the Department of Justice is the biological father of the DEA, it is not that close to it.
The DEA has concerns, but the West District Police Department does not.
They are city law enforcement units, and the Department of Justice has no control over them. To command them, go through the Los Angeles Police Department first!
As a result, several unlucky DEA agents who were no longer genuine were inexplicably detained as fake DEA agents. And it further angered the Los Angeles police. After all, you talked to me about cheating on me, and then stabbed me in the back. This is so unkind.
At this point, DEA also understood and could only think of solutions from other directions. There was no way, the backstab was found to be too painful. If there was even a glimmer of possibility to cooperate with the Los Angeles police before, now, there is not even a glimmer...
So, an investigative team came to Los Angeles.
Kai was also taken to Parker Center by Dustin, which is the headquarters of the Los Angeles Police Department.
There were two groups of people waiting for Kai there. One was the senior management of the Los Angeles Police Department. When these people saw Kai, it was like seeing a friend they hadn't seen for many years. He had no pretensions at all, he spoke well, and each of them was a talented person.
On the other hand, he seemed much colder, and even looked at Kai with eyes full of disgust.
Kai didn't take it seriously either. He never took the expressions of these big shots seriously. As the saying goes, 'The words of politicians are the biggest lies', and so did their expressions. Many times what they did was just what the occasion and time required. It's not their true feelings at all.
But what gets interesting next is that he is actually being challenged by two parties.
One side is the DEA, and the other side is the Los Angeles Police Department.
The police department is okay, but the DEA?
They are not the FBI and have no authority to interrogate other law enforcement officials. They are not the FBI.
However, seeing that none of the senior police officers present had objections, Kai didn't care.
What's even more interesting is that while the DEA's Tico seems to be trying hard to prove that his motives are questionable and to question why he appears here, the LAPD's Tico has repeatedly highlighted his contributions.
For example, someone from the DEA would say: "It is said that you clashed with Norman several times, and even once at the police station. What was the reason for the conflict between you?"
The people from the Los Angeles Police Department immediately asked: "What made you have no choice but to appear at the scene and launch the rescue of the authentication? Did you know in advance that Norman would kill people and silence them?"
Most of the time, Luke just smiled and watched the two parties' performance, which was called asking for help but was actually quarreling. If both sides find him, he will fully cooperate with the Los Angeles Police Department. After all, the DEA was completely messing around, mostly trying to pass the blame and throw the responsibility for the shootout onto him.
Although this is ridiculous, I can't help but think that these people are blind.
He just described the operation truthfully, and repeatedly emphasized that Norman was the mastermind and real culprit of a massacre.
It's no use. These DEA people are determined to find even a little flaw in Kai's narrative, hoping to use it to turn the tables. Of course, this is unlikely, but they still want to reduce the DEA's responsibility as much as possible. , try to make the Los Angeles police more accountable.
Therefore, these guys went back and forth over which questions to ask. Even if Kai's tone changed slightly, they would not let it go.
The DEA officer asked again: "How did you kill those gangsters? Can you tell me again?"
Kai tapped the table with his hand: "I have said it two hundred times, please don't doubt my memory."
The DEA officer looked unconcerned: "We are just confirming further..."
They just want to find the inconsistencies in Kai's description, and then... continue to mess around.
But Kai's patience ran out.
"Okay, that's it. I don't want to talk anymore."
"What? What are you hiding? Or running away from something?" The guy thought he had caught a loophole and was planning to pursue the victory.
Kai looked at him coldly.
"Have you seen my profile?"
"Oh, is there anything surprising about that?" The guy thought he really caught something. So he seemed very calm, and even vaguely provoked Kai, hoping that he would continue to make mistakes.
Kai ignored him and looked at the people at the police station. "Everyone in the DEA is dead, why would they send so many idiots?"
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Who wants to be called an idiot?
But the people at the police station were very cooperative with Kai.
"Who knows? Maybe... all the smart people are selling drugs."
Hahahahaha.
For a moment, the police officers in the office exuded a happy atmosphere.
"Please do me a favor and write down the names and ID numbers of these idiots. I will send a team of lawyers to deal with them tomorrow. Fake, this disgusts me to death."
After saying that, Kai picked up his coat and walked out.
A DEA agent immediately tried to capture Kay.
"You can't leave, our investigation..."
bump!
This guy was punched away...
A group of people looked at Kai Shiran and walked out stupidly.
They are all violent agencies, and most of them are good at hand-to-hand combat. After all, not all situations can be solved with guns. But knocking someone away with one punch... This is too exaggerated. It's not that there are no such tough men, but in the Los Angeles Police Department?
At this time, the Los Angeles policeman came to his senses first, and then said to the DEA people with a smile that could no longer be fake.
"What...you don't know, right? Kai is the ace of our Los Angeles Police Department. If you are patient and go through your DEA's internal files, you should be able to see his information. When he was in Chicago, I have cooperated with your DEA. He once led a small team to sweep away a gang and killed dozens of people." At this point, he looked around and whispered: "Let me tell you another inside information. Now this This person...has at least hundreds of lives on his hands."
The DEA man turned his head stiffly and looked at the gloating Los Angeles police.
"By the way, I won't keep you here. After all, you have to deal with a team of lawyers tomorrow."
"Lawyers?" Isn't that just a casual comment?
If there's one profession that law enforcement agencies least like to deal with, it's lawyers. These legal wolves are simply demons. They can confuse right and wrong and make things out of nothing. All in all, they are very troublesome. And a team of lawyers...that's a disaster.
"Don't you know?" the Los Angeles policeman showed that hateful smile again: "Kay is a rich man! A very rich one. He said there will definitely be a lawyer team!"
Now the faces of DEA people are all green.
As long as you can fight, forget it.
What a rich man?
As long as this kind of person doesn't suffer a loss at the time, it is impossible for him to suffer a loss later.
"Hillbilly, this is Los Angeles! Figure out the situation before you start messing around!"
For Los Angeles, only New York in the entire United States can compete with them. other places? Those are all rural places!
So does Washington.
…
Kai never knew he had the power of a crow's mouth, he just said he was busy.
In the end, things really happened, and they were big things.
News just came from the police station that two steel men started fighting in the city center, causing many casualties.
How is this going?
Let’s start with Malibu Beach.
Malibu Beach is one of the most famous beaches in Los Angeles, located north of Santa Monica Beach. It is famous, firstly, because in addition to the typical blue sea and blue sky of Southern California, it also has rocks of different shapes and strange shapes, and the beach scenery is beautiful and unique; secondly, Malibu is one of the wealthiest cities in Los Angeles. First, many Hollywood stars and people in the entertainment industry live here, which invisibly increases the popularity of the beach here.
Tony Stark also lives here.
At least I live here when I'm not flirting with girls.
Obadiah came to the door of the villa. The security guard at the door of the villa just glanced at Obadiah and opened the door. Obadiah never needs to be notified when he comes here. This is a habit formed over many years.
The villa was empty.
This is also normal. This villa is one of Tony's favorite places to stay, because there is a three-story laboratory underneath the villa, which contains the most cutting-edge equipment in the world. It is one of Tony's private laboratories.
As soon as Obaday walked into the living room, he heard Jarvis's voice: "Mr. Stan, do you need me to tell Mr. Stark that you are here?"
Obadiah hummed, walked around as if he was looking at the furnishings in the room, casually put a box in his hand on the sofa, and then walked to the basement door.
