Chapter 321: A Tragedy Caused by a Phone Call

Upper East Side, Manhattan, a premium apartment

Erica: "(Woken up by a rude knock) ...... Who?"β€”took out the iron ruler under the pillow

Outside the door (male voice): "Federal marshal, open the door, ......" - shouting and knocking

Erica: "Federal Marshal?"

Outside the door (male voice): "Yes, open the door quickly......"

Erica: "How do I know you're real bailiffs?"

Outside the door (another male voice): "Miss Nartris, I'm Carter (apartment security), I've seen their papers, they're really federal marshals ......" - proof

Erica: "Wait a minute. - Turn on the video access control system and observe the visitors

Outside the door, the man in uniform (bailiff): "......" - showing his ID to the camera on the door

Erica: "I'll add a piece of clothing...... - hang an iron ruler on the wall, disguise it as an ornament, and put on a garment to open the door

Federal Marshals A: "Erica Nartraus?"

Erica: "I am. ”

Federal Marshal B: "Please come with us." ”

Erica: "I'm arrested?"

Federal Marshal A: "Not ......" - handing over a letter (court summons)

Erica: "(See it's a witness summons, half assured)...... You're asking me to go to the police station for questioning?"

Federal Marshal B: "Yes, please cooperate with us. ”

Erica (belly slander): "The reason for the summons is "trespassing on the forbidden land of the government building"? What kind of reason is this...... - highly doubtful

Erica: "I'm going to make a phone call to my lawyer (friend......" - turned around and tried to get the phone

Federal Marshals A: "No, just testify." ”

Erica: "(staring down at the big hand on her arm)...... You're using such a big battle to "invite" me alone, just to make me a witness?"

Federal Marshals B: "I don't rule out the possibility of turning you from a witness to an accused, but at that time the prosecutor will let you contact a lawyer, which is your right, and at this stage, there is no need." ”

Erica: "Does that allow me to change into a decent outfit? I don't have a habit of going out in my pajamas. ”

Federal Marshals A: "Yes, but ...... Don't play tricks on us. "-- Warning

Erica: "Huh......" - rubbed her arm

Federal Marshal B: "(to the female colleague behind her) Go and help her, and it can be faster." - hint

Bailiff: "Yes." -- Keep an eye on the guard to ensure that there is no mistake

Erica: "......" - had no choice but to return to the bedroom with a "tail" to change clothes (if you don't agree, you can only wear pajamas and go)

At this time, a mobile phone rings at the door

Male voice: "The person has been found, and he is changing his clothes...... Be...... Be...... Understand ......" - the sound of noisy footsteps outside the bedroom

Erica: "(looks in, the bailiffs have entered the living room) Who allowed you all to come in? Get out of here!" - protested

Federal Marshal A: "You two search the living room, you and you search the kitchen, you follow me to search the bedroom ......" - assigning the task, completely ignoring the protests of the owner

Erica: "Do you still want to search the house?" - questioned

Federal Marshal B: "[To the female bailiff] Give her a careful examination to see if there is any hidden dirt on her. -- Not only did they not relent, but they became more rampant, unscrupulous, and acted like gangsters

Female bailiff: "Yes." "β€”Drag it to the bathroom

Erica: "Why, strip-search me?" Carter, Carter ......" - calling the apartment security guard, but he was nowhere to be seen

Federal bailiff A: "What ...... are you calling?" -- stepped forward to help the female bailiff prosecute the suspect

Federal Marshal B: "Search carefully, don't let go of a single item, and take it back as long as you feel suspicious......" -- guiding the search work

Subordinates: "Yes, sir!" -- with the order of the chief, the walls, sofas, and mattresses in the house were all damaged, and they were cut open and searched

Erica: "What the hell are you looking for? Do you need to search like this? I'm hiding drugs?"

Federal Marshals A: "You know ...... again" - escorts Erica into the bathroom

Erica: "I know?" - puzzled

Federal Marshals A: "What did you take from the scene this afternoon?" - taking advantage of the escort to extract a confession

Erica: "This afternoon, you guys are really for that burglary......"

Federal Marshals A: "If you don't want to suffer, just be honest, where did you hide the stolen things?" - restraining his wrists and pressing Erica against the wall

Erica: "What stolen, I didn't steal, why don't you look for those three turtle people, they are the ......"

Federal Marshals A: "Still quibbling with me!" - pulls out his left hand and grabs the back of Erica's neck, pressing her face against the wall

Erica: "I'm not quibbling, you can ask my boyfriend, he was with me at the time, and those three turtles were thieves......" - insisted on not talking

Federal Marshal A: "Lie, they didn't steal anything......" - glancing at the female bailiff

Female bailiff: "......" - began to search her body

Erica: "They didn't steal anything? Did you catch those three turtle men?"

Federal Marshals A: "......" - Ignore

Female bailiff: "......" - up and down at it

Erica: "If you don't believe me, I can confront them!"

Federal Marshals A: "......" - continue to ignore

Erica: "Hey, you're talking!

Federal Marshals A: "I have a few hands!" (one hand chokes the neck, the other hand restrains both hands and wrists)"

Erica: "Then how do you ......?"

Federal Marshals A: "Can I fall for you?"

Erica: "Do you know what they do to me?"

Federal Marshals A: "Hmph. ”

Erica: "You're protecting them?" - guess

Federal Marshal A: "......" - silent

Erica: "You're all in this group?" - further speculation

Female bailiff: "(Searched) ......" - shaking her head

Federal Marshal A: "After all this nonsense, there is no useful material ......" - making a disdainful gesture to hide the wavering of his heart

Erica (belly slander): "(Looking) really got me right...... (Surprised) must not go with them!" - Seeing the opportunity, he suddenly hit the lower body of Federal Marshal A

Federal Marshal A: "Ah......hh

Female bailiff: "(Drawing a gun) to ......" - just as she tried to call for backup, she was slapped in the throat and fell to her knees with her neck clutched

Me (voiceover): "Oh~~, flirt with your legs and lock your throat, girl, your tricks are too violent, is it okay?"
