Overall, Kai is not a loser. Nor did he expect to gain the trust of Carrie and her mother just once. However, in order to ensure that Jiali would not go berserk again, Kai left a seal on her body. Even if this happens next time, Kai will be able to arrive in time. As for a complete seal, it takes time. Kai is not a god. It is unrealistic to be able to create a seal with just a wave of his hand.
After leaving the phone number, Kai left Gary's home.
After a period of time, Kai would go to find Gary whenever he had free time. Margaret was disgusted with this at first, but seeing that with the increase in communication with Kai, Gary's character began to become more and more cheerful, Margaret Li Te just let it go.
In the past, Margaret forbade Cali to socialize purely for the purpose of protection, not only to prevent others from harming Cali, but also to prevent Cali from harming other people. But as she came into contact with Kai, the unsettling aura on Carrie's body became lighter and weaker, which made Margaret feel relieved.
But it was only at home, and she still didn't intend to let Jia Li out of her sight.
In short, as Kai taught Jiali little by little to control her power, Jiali's whole person changed, and she began to be willing to communicate with others. And with Kim's help, she even started to have her own small social circle. Although there are not too many people, and most of them are the kind of kids in the class who don't stand out in the limelight, that's just right, and Jia Li doesn't have any pressure getting along with them. Recently, the kid has become obsessed with D&D.
Although this is a more popular game among otakus, you can't expect Gary to suddenly become an athlete.
In fact, Kai had no intention of training Carrie to become a powerful witch.
Because while getting along with Jiali, Kai discovered that Jiali was not suitable for fighting. In the first seventeen years of her life, her character has been roughly shaped. Her character is not suitable for being a powerful fighting witch at all. Rather than doing this, it is better for Jiali to live quietly like this.
This was also the expectation of Margaret and Carrie themselves.
…
"Hi, Chloe, welcome back." Kai drove to a golf course. Chloe was already waiting there with a team of police officers. Today is Chloe's first day at work after returning from an injury. Originally, her colleagues in the major crime team planned to hold a welcome ceremony for her, but unfortunately, their line of work didn't have the time. So... just like this, Chloe didn't even have time to enter the police station before she was called here.
"Thank you." Perhaps the previous experience was too exciting and made Chloe mature a lot.
This maturity does not refer to age or anything else, but to the way you deal with things.
"How is Matilda? She didn't cause you any trouble, did she?" Kai was concerned about Matilda and Chloe, the new mother and daughter.
"Oh... forget it, she and Maggie almost tore down the whole house. But fortunately, she is a good girl, and she likes Maggie very much. Apart from helping her hide her mistakes, I am very satisfied with her. "Speaking of Matilda, Chloe had a motherly smile on her face.
"That's good. If you need anything, you can tell me directly. For example, in terms of time, I can try to arrange as few tasks for you as possible. After all, I am the leader. I have this power."
"No, there's enough time. My mother has recently moved in with us, so there's no problem." Chloe refused Kai's convenience: "I just want to work now, I'm almost rusty .”
The two were chatting here, and suddenly someone from the other side shouted: "It's salvaged!"
Kai and Chloe then walked into the isolation zone.
There is a water hazard on the golf course. This morning, someone found a human head on the shore and chose to call the police.
This is a golf course in the West Side of Los Angeles. Think about it, how much does it cost to build a golf course with complete facilities and a huge area in the West Side, one of the richest areas in the greater Los Angeles area?
Having money brings privilege, especially in a money-oriented society like the United States.
So the bureau dispatched the serious crime team with the highest crime detection rate to take over.
Looking at the completely decomposed body, Kai asked the forensic doctor: "How long has he been soaked in the water?"
"It is difficult to determine. The body has been pressed by heavy objects, and there are traces of brushite everywhere on the body. This affects the judgment of the time of death to a certain extent. Currently, judging from the blood deposition, the closest time , should be three to four weeks. How exactly, we need to transport the body back to the laboratory."
"OK! Do what you have to do."
Kai asked his colleagues in the forensics department to continue collecting evidence, and after a while, something was actually discovered. Just when the forensics department was about to bag the body, something suddenly fell from the body's abdomen. That's a blood glucose meter, which is what people with diabetes use to measure their blood sugar.
The forensics department was relieved when they saw this thing. This thing has a serial number, and ordinary people won't buy this thing. You only need to go to the seller and check the serial number to find out the owner of the blood glucose meter.
On this point, there is one thing to say, it is really better than in China. Americans' consumption habits are to use less cash and use credit cards for most purchases. This correspondence search is very convenient. Of course, this also means that personal information is more easily exploited.
Anyway, with this, we can quickly find out who the body is.
…
"Vivian Prince?" Sure enough, an hour later, Kai got all the victim's information in his office. But when he saw her name, Kai felt something was wrong.
This is a female reporter, and she is also the female reporter who has attracted the most attention in recent years. She exposed a series of illegal operations by the NSA.
The U.S. National Security Agency, abbreviated as NSA, is the largest intelligence department among U.S. government agencies. It is responsible for collecting and analyzing foreign and domestic communications data. It is affiliated with the U.S. Department of Defense and is also known as the National Security Agency. It was independent from the military department at the time in 1952 based on a secret directive from President Truman to strengthen intelligence and communications work. It is the centerpiece of the U.S. intelligence agency.
And this Vivian exposed that the US National Security Agency has invaded computers in Hong Kong and mainland China since 2009, targeting the Chinese University of Hong Kong, public officials, corporate and student computers; computers at Samsung, Cisco, Huawei and Dell, etc. Computer and communications equipment companies also have spyware (programs that steal personal information) embedded in their products. Surveillance software is implanted in 100,000 computers around the world; citizens’ phone communication data is monitored and stored on a large scale.
Not to mention, Vivian also exposed two sets of lists. One set of lists is: the NSA's surveillance list of allied countries and allied leaders. Another set of lists are spies placed by the National Security Bureau in various countries!
In other words, this Vivian has made the entire United States appear internationally!
Recently, according to the news broke by the newspaper and media where Vivian works, they will provide an even more explosive news!
The practice is still NSA!
At this juncture, Vivian died.
"This is definitely a big trouble!" Chloe said helplessly while holding the information.
"Yep!" Kai was not in a hurry. "Go to Vivian's house and check. Although I don't think there is anything useful there, but what if?"
"Understood." Chloe just walked to the door, then turned back: "I remember, you and I are partners, you... don't come with me?"
Chloe is indeed Kai's partner. Although this partner is very casual, Kai basically acts alone most of the time.
"No, I am the leader, and the leader will naturally do what the leader should do."
As soon as he finished speaking, three men in black knocked on the door and came in, without waiting for Kai to say come in.
"Agent Wayne, we are Ryan Gale, NSA Special Agent."
"Look, my business has come." Kai pointed at the three black supers and said to Chloe, "Go and do the work. I'll deal with these black supers."
Chloe smiled and took the people away directly.
Kai then said to the three men in black: "What can I do for you? Mr. Gale?"
That Gale was also very direct: "I was appointed to supervise the investigation about Vivian Prince. From now on, Keith, any evidence you and your colleagues find will have to go through me."
"Let's go without seeing you off. MR. Gale." Kai waved his hand and told them to get out.
"Detective Wayne. You must not realize that this involves national security issues." Agent Gale stepped forward and said to Kai in a very oppressive manner, with a tone full of superior threats.
"Well, I think I can realize it. First of all, I am sincerely sorry for the harm this brave reporter has caused you. Secondly, I think she did a great job! Finally, I think you should pay more attention to the spies who were exposed. , after all, that is your responsibility, isn't it? Don't let them bleed and sweat for the country, and in the end they can't guarantee their own lives."
"Detective Wayne, I think your idea is very dangerous. You have to know that what Vivian did is treason! She will put our overseas agents at risk! This is serious!"
"No, no, no." Kai shook his head: "I think exactly the opposite. I think this is your responsibility. You are doing intelligence work! But you were exposed by a reporter! Top secret information! This is too amateurish, national security I leave it in your hands... Tsk, I have to say, those big guys on Capitol Hill are really big-hearted! In my opinion, a female reporter can actually take advantage of a huge organization like you that spends countless taxpayers' money. No matter how you look at it, it is all your responsibility to obtain such top-secret information so easily. She is right, the U.S. Constitution gives her the qualification to report."
That Gale was just about to retort. Kai continued: "Also, you must realize that I am a police officer. It is impossible for me to hand over the evidence of a murder case to an organization like you that has enough motive to kill Vivian. You are the biggest suspect! Even if you are the biggest suspect! You are doing this under the guise of a so-called 'national security issue'."
"I think it's unacceptable and we don't want to make it look bad. You do your job and we do ours and it's better for everyone."
Kelly ignored the threat implicit in his words: "I am not a subordinate department of yours, and there is no need for the Los Angeles Police Department to take orders from the NSA. So without a clear order from the court, where did you come from? Where to go. Or, I'll beat you up and then throw you out!"
Speaking of this, Kai became even more forceful: "Listen, kid. Don't think you can come in front of me and pretend to be an adult just because you're wearing a cheap black suit. You're not qualified yet. In addition, you have to pay attention to the tone of your words and you must remain respectful. and awe, because that guarantees I won't beat you up. Now! You can get out of here. I'm too busy to play house with you."
The three NSA agents looked very ugly.
As the largest intelligence agency among U.S. government agencies, the NSA has very high authority and has always been a powerful department. But now a city policeman actually threatened them, wanted to beat them, and despised them as worthless.
This is so fucking magical.
But I have to say, what Kai said makes sense.
The United States is a federal country, and the U.S. Constitution determines that the United States is a federal country with a high degree of decentralization. Even for a long time, the American government was a small government, and there was a parallel between state rights and the federal government. Federal and State Competencies. It is also in the past 100 years that the federal authority has gradually expanded, while the power of the states has relatively shrunk. In particular, in order to implement the "New Deal" and strengthen state intervention in the economy, the Supreme Court in the 1930s relaxed its interpretation of the Constitution and legalized the expansion of federal power.
Even now, the level of autonomy among states is still quite high. The NSA is an agency affiliated with the Department of Defense and is a federal government agency. They have no jurisdiction over state police. There is no one who is higher and who is lower.
They want to take direct command and supervise the Los Angeles police?
This would be seen as a suppression of state rights by the federal government, something that many federalist politicians and officials would not allow. And no judge would order police to cooperate with federal agencies because of a murder.
Generally speaking, when federal agencies go to local areas and require the cooperation of local police, they never rely on the administrative power of the federal government. That depends on the state and city governments.
It's impossible for an NSA agent to attack a police officer in a police station. If such a thing happened, it would definitely not be Kay.
So they could only leave in despair.
I don’t know how they did it, but soon Dustin appeared in Kai’s office.
To be honest, sometimes Dustin felt a little frustrated. When he was a director meeting with his subordinates, he took the initiative to come to Kai's office most of the time. He couldn't tell who was the leader.
But it's clear that Dustin doesn't have enough influence on Kai to make Kai compromise.
Dustin had no choice but to let it go.
After all, in Dustin's opinion, Kai is a subordinate with no weaknesses.
He doesn't care about promotion. He has made enough achievements and is supported by the police officers below. He is rich and confident. What can he do?
The usual methods used by superiors to suppress their subordinates were of no use to him.
Besides, Kai didn't do anything illegal.
