Taskmaster became famous relatively late, and only became famous in recent years. No one knew who he was or what he did before.
But one thing Porgy knew was that he was expensive, very expensive!
At least someone of Porgy's level couldn't hire him.
"You don't have his contact information?" Saji frowned, a little dissatisfied.
"No... Boss, I'm just a small character, not a big shot. How can I contact someone like this? If I really had this ability, I wouldn't stay here and be threatened by you. But... I heard , this guy has always been wearing a skull mask and has never shown his true face... It will be difficult for you to investigate this case!"
This was said with a sense of schadenfreude.
Porgy knew very well that if he wanted to overturn the case for the man in the video, he had to at least catch Taskmaster, and he had to catch him alive, and he had to be willing to talk.
But that was none of his business, and he didn't know Taskmaster.
Saji was very dissatisfied with Boji's tone, but his brows immediately widened: "It's true that you can't contact him, but I know you must know who can contact him!"
Poji's expression changed... Saji was right!
"Give me a name!"
Saji smiled.
Porgy looked bitter.
He knew he had to say it.
…
"Taking Master?" Kai received a call from Saji when he got home. "Are you sure?"
"Not sure...after all, no one has seen that bastard." Saji said helplessly: "However, I know one thing. Someone can contact the Taskmaster."
"who?"
"Red Devil, Raymond Reddington."
Kai has heard of this name, and he is one of the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives. How come I haven't heard of this name Kai?
"Why can't I find Taskmaster and help the FBI catch wanted criminals?" Kaidu was amused.
Although such wanted criminals are usually very heinous, Kai will naturally do his best to meet him, but who's the problem? This guy is one of the ten most wanted criminals in the world... He is not in New York at all, and he is not even active in the United States. Where can he be caught?
"Um... Well, my informant told me that Reddington has been active in the United States... except that he is not on TV, he is basically the same as a normal person. It is not difficult to contact him!"
Yes, it's that outrageous.
When Saji heard it before, he felt like he was listening to a fairy tale. He even directly contacted his brother, Luke Hobbs, who worked in DSS. Because his brother's work was classified, Luke was very worried. The real surname was no longer used a long time ago. In the past, the family did not know what Luke was doing. It was not until Saji became the special minister that his brother worked in DSS.
Compared with organizations such as the FBI and CIA, which are very famous around the world, DSS seems less famous.
It's not even famous in the United States.
The full name of DSS is Diplomatic Security Service, which is the U.S. Diplomatic Security Service. It is a security law enforcement force affiliated with the U.S. State Department. He is mainly responsible for the analysis of international threats related to U.S. interests, the investigation of information security technology, counter-terrorism, and security technology, protecting the security of citizens, property, and information; and providing a safe and reliable environment for the U.S. government’s foreign policy actions. Security operations for all U.S. global diplomatic missions are planned and implemented by the Bureau of Diplomatic Security. He also provided private security for the U.S. Secretary of State, visiting foreign heads of state and high-level dignitaries, and was responsible for passport and visa fraud investigations.
The actual power is very great.
Through Luke, Saji learned that the U.S. government had an agreement with Reddington. What specific agreement it was, Luke did not say, and Saji did not ask. He only knew that Reddington had very close ties with various U.S. intelligence agencies. Coming and going.
Reddington's business was flowing smoothly in the United States.
Kai was shocked, could he still play like this?
He knows that the U.S. government does do some dirty things all the time, but... this is the person you want, and you are in trouble in the blink of an eye. Isn't it so dirty?
"How to contact?"
Kai said curiously.
"It is said...it is said that all you need to do is contact Harold Cooper, the assistant director of the FBI's Counterterrorism Division. He is the contact between the FBI and the Red Devils."
This is the information Luke gave Sage.
In fact, strictly speaking, this level of information can be disclosed. But who calls Saji’s status special? His boss is Kay Wayne.
No one is going to get into trouble for this little thing.
"Cooper?!!"
Kai suddenly heard the name and was a little unresponsive.
"Do you and I know any Cooper?"
"Yes..." Saji was also a little dumbfounded.
When the name Harold Cooper is mentioned, many book friends may have no idea. But in fact, he was an acquaintance. Harold Cooper was once the deputy chief of the Chicago Police Department. Kay once worked in the Chicago Police Department for a period of time, and his boss's boss was Cooper. At the time, Kay was working in the Chicago Police Department, and the deputy chief in charge of the detective department was Cooper.
Later Cooper jumped directly to the Department of Justice.
Because his old classmate was promoted from the Office of the Federal Attorney General to the Department of Justice and became the Deputy Minister of Justice. The old classmate hoped that Cooper could help him, so he was transferred to the FBI. Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for several years, he actually became The assistant director of the Counterterrorism Department is also considered a high-level person.
"Forget it, I'll make the call myself."
Sometimes connections are just so fun.
I know people everywhere.
Soon Kay dialed Cooper's personal phone number.
Speaking of which, Kai and Cooper had a good relationship before. Later, Cooper was transferred and Kai went to Los Angeles. There is less contact between them. There is no way, the working environment of the two is no longer compatible. One works in the FBI and the other works in the local police station. There is really not much direct contact with each other.
We only talk on the phone during holidays.
"Hey, Cooper. It's me, Wayne."
Cooper was actually surprised that Kai would call him. Not many people actually know about what he and Kai have worked together, and Cooper has a very complicated view of Kai. After all, anyone who sees that one of his police officers actually becomes a superhero one day will be as confused as him.
However, out of caution, Cooper did not disclose to anyone that he had worked with Kay.
In fact, it's not surprising. When Kai was working in Chicago, he was just an ordinary police detective. Although Cooper was his boss, he was his boss's boss. According to ordinary people's understanding, there is still a distance between the two. And Kay is famous in Los Angeles.
While in Chicago, he was a very capable police detective.
Cooper knew him, but wasn't familiar with him, which made perfect sense.
As for why Cooper didn't say anything, it's actually very simple...the camps are different.
Politics is a very dirty thing.
Cooper's faction belongs to his old classmates, and although Kay has never expressed his political opinions... Although his behavior is more conservative, it is not a secret that he has a close relationship with the man in the White House, so generally speaking, everyone They all subconsciously assigned it to the main camp of the White House.
However, the deputy minister of justice is not in the same camp as the one in the White House at all, and is even a political enemy.
It's okay for Cooper and Kay to have a connection. It's normal. The boss of their faction has been hanging around with the guy in the White House all day long. But if he went around trumpeting his connection to Kai, that would be in the betrayal camp.
Personal relationships are private relationships. Should we pay attention to the impact?
After all, he is not a big shot.
It’s only proper to follow up on your backers.
Tiantian says how good your relationship with Kai is...why do you want to rebel?
The public contact between the bosses and the bosses is the power that only the bosses have.
The people below you must show the differences between camps, otherwise how can everyone be harmonious?
At least Cooper is still just an official, not a politician.
Unless he leaves a functional department and enters the political arena, then he has the right to express political views.
"Contact the Red Devil?"
Cooper was startled.
Very few people know that he is the contact person of the Red Devils.
This is an FBI secret.
But soon, Cooper gave up his spirit of inquiry. After all, Kai knew too many big guys. If Kai was like him, he could even talk directly to the big guys of their faction.
Believe it or not, Kai now picked up the phone and dialed the boss's personal number directly. The boss would answer the call personally no matter what he did and talk to Kai cordially.
Kay's position in American politics is very... transcendent.
He may not be able to make a politician's future better, but he can ruin a politician's reputation.
This is the kind of thing where success may not be enough, but bad things are definitely done right away! '
Therefore, most political bigwigs are very polite to Kai and will not provoke him if they can.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Kai has been staying in New York. After all, Kai has been staying in New York and is not even interested in the power of the police department, let alone competing with them for power. In this case, everyone can live in peace.
"You look for him..."
"The police are looking for a wanted criminal. What do you think they are doing?"
Kai didn't bother to explain so much, so he just said this.
"No! Kai, you can't touch the Red Devil!" Cooper listened.
After all, with Kai's usual style of behavior, it would be really unlucky for the Red Devils to encounter him...
So Cooper said immediately.
"Why? His father is the president? Benjamin never said he had such an eldest son!"
Kai said jokingly.
"No..." Cooper had a headache.
If Kai kills the Red Devil, Cooper really has no idea what to do with Kai.
"The Red Devils are working with us."
"Tsk! Cooper, I've known you for so many years." Actually it wasn't that long, just a few years. But it doesn't stop Kai from saying this: "I remember that you used to be a hateful person, and now you have actually fallen to get involved with a wanted criminal."
"It's not what you think!" Cooper quickly explained.
Although Kai had not worked with Cooper for a long time, he knew that Cooper had always had a reputation as a good policeman who hated evil. Back then, criminals kidnapped his family and threatened him, but he didn't give in. You can only imagine what kind of person he was.
Kai was willing to believe him for once.
"Then what happened?"
"Okay, I can tell you, but you must promise not to reveal it, otherwise, all your efforts will be wasted."
Cooper said.
"We work with Raymond to fight criminals."
"Pfft!!" Kai sprayed directly.
"Are you stupid at the FBI?! Fighting criminals with a wanted criminal who has a long history of crimes? Are you telling me some new joke?"
Kai really didn't expect that the other party would give such an answer.
"Cooper...if you really have any difficulties, just tell me! Is your idiot classmate more complicit with them than you? Wait, I'm going to Washington now, and I'm going against the grain! Such an outrageous thing, They can actually do it openly, and they are not afraid of being sprayed to death!"
If this matter spreads out, everyone involved will definitely be ruined!
Kai is not afraid of confronting them at all!
Although Kai is not willing to get involved in this power struggle, Nima, you can't be so outrageous!
So even if Kai exposed this matter, no one would dare to trouble him about it!
Fuck, you did such an outrageous thing and you still don’t want anyone to talk about it?
This is just like Stryker conducting mutant experiments. The government will provide some conveniences to Stryker, but it will never give Stryker a platform. If you are discovered by someone, then I'm sorry, but the government will not be able to give you any support. If I take the blame, I will be the first to kill you!
This kind of thing is so outrageous that people are complaining. How could those gang of thieves in the government stand up and take the blame?
Anyway, these white gloves are very easy for politicians to use and easy to throw away.
"Wait! Kai is not like this! Just listen to me!"
Cooper quickly advised: "This matter is not what you think. Raymond came here on his own initiative."
Cooper hurriedly told the story of the incident.
It turned out that Raymond had been cooperating with the FBI for two or three years.
Three years ago, Raymond, who had been wanted, suddenly appeared at FBI headquarters and voluntarily surrendered.
The FBI had never encountered this kind of thing in 800 years, so of course they locked up Raymond without saying anything.
As a result, Raymond was not afraid at all and instead negotiated terms with the FBI.
Over the years, Raymond has cooperated with too many criminals, many of whom not even the FBI knows about!
This is an exaggeration.
Each of these people has great magical powers and can cause great harm. If the FBI doesn't know, let it go until it becomes impossible to let go. But the problem is, these people are hiding so deeply that the FBI has no information at all.
But Raymond has information.
He can help the FBI arrest those people, provided the FBI agrees to his conditions.
So step by step, Raymond cooperated with the FBI.
Not just the FBI, he even cooperated with most intelligence agencies.
As a result, now, not only has Raymond not been locked up, but his business has also grown bigger and bigger!
"Faq! Are you sure that the Red Devil is not using you to eliminate competitors?"
"Of course we know!" Cooper and the others are not idiots. They can still fool him once or twice. After several years, if they still can't react, then they might as well just find a piece of tofu and kill him. "But we have done an evaluation and his presence does more good than harm to us!"
Although Raymond has used the power of the U.S. government to strengthen himself, at any rate, Raymond has at least been under their surveillance. The U.S. government has many opportunities to deal with Raymond, but those criminals outside are not so good. There are many ways.
What's more, the U.S. government has also received a lot of benefits from Raymond in recent years. Although Raymond has used the power of the U.S. government to strengthen himself, at any rate, Raymond has at least been under their surveillance. The U.S. government has many opportunities to deal with Raymond, but those criminals outside are not so good. There are many ways.
What's more, the U.S. government has also received a lot of benefits from Raymond in recent years.
The influence of the United States has been gradually declining in recent years, and its external intelligence capabilities have also been greatly affected. And Raymond's intelligence network is undoubtedly a complement to them.
Don't underestimate the energy of these ghosts and monsters.
For example, those countries in South America, as the back garden of the United States, have been exploited by the United States. Don’t those countries want to resist?
When the United States was at its peak, there were so many people following us, let alone now.
At this time, Raymond's relationship with the drug lords and criminals in South America became a good supplement of intelligence.
In recent years, using Raymond's network, the United States has killed many anti-Americans!
