Chapter 489 Ash
Lunch time.
District of Columbia.
Washington, in a Mediterranean-style restaurant diagonally across from Liberty Square.
The Finance Minister of this government, Mr. Fulena Kurutel, picked up a napkin and gently wiped the corners of his mouth, raised his water glass, gestured to Mr. Chief of Staff sitting opposite, and said with a smile.
"Has someone found your head too?"
"Yes~"
Mr. Chief of Staff showed a very playful smile, put down the cup, picked up the knife and fork again, and whispered.
"Mr. President is still hesitant about the pardon order~"
"We also don't agree with him issuing this pardon to Patty Hearst now."
"but.."
"Behind this matter, there are people who have been quietly promoting it in the past two years~"
"Now, it has reached a point where everyone tacitly agrees."
"It...seems to have become an inevitable thing!"
Fulena Kurutel smiled slightly: "Haha~"
"My father once told me that nothing in the world is absolutely inevitable, let alone 100% chance~"
"Instead of wasting time on this matter, let Mr. President worry about more important things!"
"Oh?"
"for example?"
"..popularity!"
The chief of staff put a piece of fish into his mouth, tilted his head to think about it, and said with a smile: "So, you have also become a lobbyist?"
"Hahaha~"
"From last night to this morning, I received four phone calls and three messages~"
"Don't tell me, there's nothing happening on your side!"
"Tsk~ I understand!"
The chief of staff showed a trace of curiosity on his face and asked: "Is it... just because of a magazine??"
"Hahaha~"
"Is there any benefit for us to get to the bottom of it?"
"What the hell!?"
"..ok!"
"I'll go look for it later..."
"me and you together!"
"Hahaha~ok!"
----
new York.
Manhattan, 42nd Street, Wildfire Bar.
David walked behind Mike Bai and Giovanni and entered the bar.
Old Rhett, who was standing behind the bar, and the waiter Jin Ji, who was standing outside the bar, couldn't help but smile when they saw the three of them wandering in.
"Hey~ boss!?"
"It's rare that you have time to come here~" Giovanni's wife Jin Ji poured two glasses of wine, raised her eyebrows at David, and teased.
"Haha~ How have you been at the bar these two days?"
"Still the same"
"Hmm~"
"Old Rhett, what about you?"
"How have you been these few days?"
Old Rhett lowered his head, chose a bottle of Coke for David, opened the lid, handed it to him and smiled.
"If that Mike Tyson could give me the camera back..."
"That's even better~hahaha~"
"Oh?!"
"I forgot about him!"
David slapped his forehead hard, looked around, and asked Mike Bai curiously.
"Then boy, where are the others?"
"How do I know?"
"Well... I happen to be free now. Go and look around and find him."
Before Mike Bai could answer, the little Zach, who was already sitting aside and bored, jumped up and shouted.
"Boss, I know where he is, let me go!"
"..Okay, thank you!"
"Hehe~ We'll be back soon!"
. . .
The little Zach left, and Mike Bai saw that David happened to be free at the moment. After thinking about it, he pulled him to a table by the wall, sat down, and whispered.
"That guy Xinni..."
"Carew's unusual performance made Madonna..."
"Later, Karu came to see you, his face was swollen like a pig's head..."
After listening to Mike Bai's introduction and some of his own analysis, David looked surprised and worried, and suddenly felt that this matter was a bit tricky~
He thought for a moment, then said helplessly to Mike with a wry smile: "Do you remember the new insurance policy I proposed in the nightclub from the insurance company... revenge insurance?"
"Remember~"
"Xinni, I bought myself a copy early!"
"Forehead.."
Mike Bai was speechless~
He looked around, slapped his mouth a few times, and asked in a low voice, a bit dumbfounded.
"Then... what should we do?"
David rubbed his forehead and recalled what they had talked about the last time he met Karu alone. .
"Huh~ What else can I do?"
"Of course, follow the rules!"
"You...go and contact Karu. I saw you here~I'll talk to him!"
"Come here? Isn't it good~"
"Haha~It's okay!"
"...ok!" Mike Bai hesitated for two seconds, then nodded and agreed, and walked out of the bar in long strides.
. . .
Mike Bai is gone.
David sat alone at the table in the corner and rubbed his forehead~
Carew's identity. .
Where is Sinney and his family? !
do you died?
If we follow the rules, how will the insurance company operate this order?
David stared at the wine glass in his hand, thought for a while, and finally gave up these meaningless thoughts.
. . .
ten minutes later.
That guy Mike Bai didn't come back, but little Zach came back first, leading Mike Tyson.
David recognized the future heavyweight boxing champion as soon as he walked in~
Mike Tyson, who is less than 13 years old this year, has not changed much in facial contours, but his face looks a little green and immature that young people should have.
The little Zach led Mike Tyson to David and said with a smile: "Boss, he's here!"
"Well~ thank you!"
"I'm right over there. If you need something, just call me!"
"Ok!"
. . .
David glanced in the direction of the bar and saw Old Rhett paying attention to this side. He smiled and asked Tyson to sit down and asked.
"What would you like to drink?"
"...No, thank you!" Mike Tyson sat opposite David with curiosity and reserve in his eyes, shaking his head and whispering.
"Hmm~"
"Are you still used to it these days?"
"It's okay~"
"What did you do just now?"
"...Feed the pigeons!"
"Hahaha~"
David turned around and looked around the bar, saw the one-eyed Andres who had just walked in at the door, waved to him and smiled.
"I'm here!"
"Oh~"
One-eyed Andres strode forward, looked at Mike Tyson up and down, and smiled.
"This kid..."
"Are you okay?"
"Yes~"
"I remember...every Thanksgiving, there is a huge Macy's Parade in New York."
"Please ask Auston for me, will our security company and auxiliary police participate in maintaining security during the parade this year?"
"Why doesn't anyone talk to me?"
"I almost forgot about this~"
"Okay! Shall I go find Auston?"
"Ok!"
"Oh! Wait a minute, man~"
"Polly and I discussed purchasing some holiday food rations for the security company's training base~"
"You guys are staying with me here in New York..."
"When Thanksgiving and Christmas come, I'll ask Susan to arrange a big dinner at the bar, and you guys will come over and have a great time!"
One-eyed Andres smiled and nodded: "Okay! I'll inform everyone~"
"Ok!"
David stood up with a smile, held the one-eyed Andres's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Man, come here with your children~"
"We need young people!"
"Hahaha~ Aren't you a young man?"
"Hahaha~ Compared with them, I am old too!"
. . .
One-eyed Andres, gone.
David set his sights on Mike Tyson again and asked with a smile.
"Have you met Lawyer George?"
"Yes~"
"How do you feel about him?"
Mike Tyson blinked a few times, shook his head and said, "He's fine~"
"very good?"
"Haha~ George will definitely be happy with your evaluation of him~"
"Hmm~"
"How many times have you been arrested by the police in the past few years?"
"...28 times."
"Wow~ You are already an old fool!"
"I haven't even passed the police station once..."
"What's it like inside?"
Tyson had a dark face and said nothing. .
David stopped joking, looked at Tyson seriously, and said, "You and your family must be very strange~"
"Why you!?"
"What do I want to do?"
"Is it right?"
Mike Tyson nodded.
"Actually, the reason is very simple!"
"I want to try to help you within the scope of my ability and give you a different life~"
Tyson's face showed a trace of confusion~
David smiled and shook his head, not intending to explain anything further to young Tyson, and asked.
"where is your family?"
"Find some time, bring your family and let's sit down and talk about your future~"
Mike Tyson frowned and retorted in a low voice: "I can do it myself..."
"Yeah~ I know!"
"But as for whether you are more suitable to be a lawyer or a doctor in the future, in my opinion, the opinions of your family are more important!"
"Lawyer? Doctor?"
"Yes~"
"Of course!"
"If you want to be a scientist, athlete, singer, or writer... I can also find you a good teacher and a good school~"
"Make your dreams come true!"
Mike Tyson's still childish face once again showed confusion and confusion.
He looked at David seriously and asked with some disbelief: "What do I need to pay?"
"Hahaha~"
David was surprised by his rhetorical question, but also smiled happily.
"It's too early to tell you this now~"
"When you really think of your goal, or discuss it with your family, we can talk about it...what do you need to pay! ok?"
"..good!"
Mike Tyson stood up and was about to leave, but hesitated~
He looked at David, pursed his lips, and whispered: "Thank you!"
"Hahaha~"
"When I have time someday, take me to see your pigeons, okay?"
"it is good!"
"Okay~ Go ahead and say hello to your family on my behalf!"
"..."
. . .
The young black boy, Mike Tyson, is gone.
David looked at his leaving back, and the smile on his lips became stronger~
In this world that is both familiar and unfamiliar, David was able to find an "acquaintance" who was very familiar with his life path, which made him feel confident again~
David walked to the bar and smiled at Old Rhett: "You and Mike Tyson get along well?"
"Haha~ Not bad!"
"Hmm~ That bad boy, please help me and take care of it from now on~"
Old Rhett glanced sideways at David and said with a smile: "He has a family! Are you looking for the wrong person?"
"Haha~ How could I find the wrong person for this kind of thing?"
David showed a sly smile and changed the subject without waiting for Old Rhett to say anything else.
"I'm going to have a big party at the bar for Thanksgiving."
"Please help me make an appointment with Andy and Sally, and let them come over and have fun~"
"..Okay~!"
"Where's Heywood? Why didn't you see him?"
"Now he has to look at the heating furnace every day to ensure our heating~"
"Oh~"
David took another bottle of Coke, sat at the bar, and chatted with Old Rhett.
. . .
After half an hour.
At the door of the bar, Mike Bai and Karu walked in.
David saw the two of them, got up and walked to a corner table on his own initiative, sat down, and motioned to Carew to sit down too.
Mike Bai walked to the bar, adjusted the pistol he carried to the most comfortable position, and then drank his drink while paying attention to the movements of David and the other two people.
Kalu, who was sitting opposite David, had a hint of bitterness on his slightly swollen face and whispered.
"What happened with Xinni... was an accident!"
"I never thought that his family would bury him together~"
"I.."
David frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "Are you sure that they are all dead?"
"Yes!"
"Did you plan all this?"
"No!"
"I just revealed some information to him, and some people want to harm him~"
"He was very sensitive to this kind of thing, so he left New York with his family and wanted to escape for a while~"
"..Then what?"
Kalu took out a cigarette and lit one for himself: "I arranged for people to go to Australia, where I planned to find an opportunity to kidnap him, interrogate him about the things he had done over the years, and record them as the final evidence.."
"evidence??"
"Are you... too naive?"
"Or do you think I'm a fool? Huh?"
Kalu lowered his head, took a few puffs of cigarette, and said in a low voice: "I originally planned that as long as he confessed, I would simply...send him a ride, and then hand over his criminal evidence together. The media or the police..."
"But I didn't expect that he was so suspicious that he didn't go to Australia for vacation as planned, but instead went to...the Mediterranean~"
"To my surprise..."
. . .
Twenty minutes later.
After David kept asking Karu questions, he finally understood the whole story~
Former Bronx gang boss Shinny managed to survive his "retirement" without falling into serious trouble because of his suspicion, ruthlessness, dirty tricks, and willingness to spend money on his men. .
During the years when he led gangs to occupy the Bronx, he experienced the entire process of the Bronx from prosperity to decline. His hands were stained with the blood of various people, and he also had many enemies~
At that time, Karu was arranged by his boss to sneak into Xinni's side and act as an undercover agent. .I can only be like a kite being led, drifting here and there, struggling to survive in those days of being frightened every day~
The turning point of all this was the unexpected death of Director Hoover~!
After he died, Karu became a kite with its string cut off, and no one cared about his life or death anymore. .
In order to save his life, Kalu worked hard to integrate into Xinni's gang, help him with the bloody business, and help him eliminate those competitors who were also not good people.
Of course~
Xinni's suspicious character is destined to make it impossible for him to completely trust Carew.
He had tested Kalu many times, but after finding no flaws, he relaxed some of his suspicion and surveillance of Kalu~
Kalu knew clearly in his heart that when Sinni had ill intentions towards him, he did not do anything that seemed unreasonable and perfectly hid his true inner thoughts.
Until ~ A while ago, Sinni wanted to quit, and his men gathered together to kill him.
Karu knew about this in advance and told Xinni~
Xinni knew that he had to strike first, so he arranged for Carew to deal with the six people and their families who were secretly plotting.
Karu, do as you are told~
But he also hid it from Xinni, forged evidence that these people's families had been killed, secretly let three of them go, and made an agreement with them not to return to New York to seek revenge in this life!
But what Carew didn't expect was that although they kept their promise, they never returned to New York.
But he has been secretly looking for someone to watch Xinni's every move, and chased him as he left New York. Finally, he killed his whole family and succeeded in revenge. .
Emm. .
This tortuous and fantastic revenge plot makes David really don’t know what to say~
. . .
Karu finished telling everything.
David rubbed his forehead and cursed in a low voice: "You... are such a bastard!"
"..I know!"
"Sinnie, should you die?"
"..."
"It's not up to you to decide whether he lives or dies!"
"His family members should not pay for the crimes he committed...with their lives!"
"..."
David looked at Carew who lowered his head and said nothing, "If, you didn't lie..."
"I do not have!"
"...Okay~"
"I believe your words for the time being. None of this was your plan, it was all an accident~"
"But you are also one of the indirect accomplices of this tragedy, right?"
"..."
"so what?"
"Come tell me this, why?"
"I'm not a fucking priest! I'm not a high-ranking official or judge in the law enforcement department!"
"What are you going to do?"
Karu lit a cigarette again, took two big puffs, and showed a helpless and bitter smile.
"I don't know...who should I be able to tell this to~"
"only you!"
"I...I fucking...thank you!"
David gritted his teeth and said something dumbfounded~
He leaned back, took a few deep breaths, waved away the smoke floating in front of him, and asked with a frown.
"Do you know that Xinni bought revenge insurance?"
"..I know~"
"In this matter, as long as someone can confirm that Xinni is dead... the terms in the insurance contract will automatically start to be implemented~"
"When the time comes, it will confirm one by one according to the details of the contract terms, and finally provide a reward for the murderer~"
David rubbed his eyes that were a little uncomfortable from the smoke a few times, shook his head and muttered: "The police's investigation work is nothing~"
"But those bounty hunters don't care about what's behind this matter... right or wrong!"
"They only recognize money, not people!"
"I can't help it~"
"..I see!"
"What are your plans?"
"Hide?"
"Destroy evidence?"
"Or...kill me later and then commit suicide?"
Karu rolled his eyes feeling a little ridiculous, shook his head and said: "Those bounty hunters, they can't catch me!"
"what?"
"why?"
"Haha ~ Unless I turn myself in and tell the judge or jury everything I just said..."
"Only based on the existing laws and my confession can they make corresponding punishments or judgments for me for indirectly killing Xinni's family."
"I... won't be able to serve a few years in jail. I might even not have to go to jail..."
"Forehead.."
"What the hell...are you using all the legal knowledge you learned from the FBI here?"
"Haha~ I just told the facts and didn't make any excuses for myself..."
"You have to believe me!"
"I believe you ass!"
David looked at the "sincerity" on Carew's face, coupled with his ugly, swollen face, for a moment. .Falling into silence again~
He counts. .Attempted murder! ?
should. .Doesn't it count? !
David tilted his head, thought for a while, shook his head with a wry smile, and whispered to Carew.
"Have you finished?"
"...It's over!"
"Get the hell out of me now!"
"you.."
"What am I?"
Kalu pointed to his nose in surprise and asked, "What should I do?"
"Hey~ Let's go home and sleep!"
"What else can I do?"
"I don't have any better idea~"
"Perhaps, one day in the future, someone will give you the sentence you deserve."
"..Haha~"
"..Go, roll, roll, roll!"
Karu rubbed his cheeks vigorously several times, put his hands on the table, stood up, and whispered to David.
"Thank you!"
"..."
David just waved his hand, showing that he was too lazy to pay attention to him~
Kalu didn't say much, just looked at David deeply for a few times, and then walked away gracefully~
