Chapter 665: Ace
"You read it wrong! Mimi! ”
Song Ya observed the nearby guests and attendants in horror, and quickly stopped his wife by the waist to stop her from rushing into the villa, "She is not the woman who was there that day, this is the wife of my Chicago politician friend, Peter, Peter Flock, you have seen it!" ”
“APLUS? You okay? ”
Mariah Carey looked at Alicia suspiciously, and Alicia, who approached to say hello, also looked up at the two of them with some embarrassment, and she must have heard the crisp slap just now.
"It's okay, come on, Mrs. Flock."
"I think I'm wrong, I don't ...... age," Mariah Carey sniffed, holding back her tears, and looked up and down at Alicia who was climbing the stairs.
"What...... What age......"
The smile on Alicia's face disappeared in an instant, and she subconsciously touched her face.
"It's nothing, my wife is looking at the wrong person."
Song Ya hurriedly pinched his wife's waist secretly, huh? Seems to be more meaty and softer?
"yes, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to......"
Mariah Carey temporarily admitted her mistake, "Hello, Mrs. Flock, we were just talking about another person. ”
"Just call me Alicia." Alicia squeezed out a smile again.
"Is that her?" Brenda didn't know when she smelled and appeared behind the two of them, "Mimi, leave it to me!" She rolled up her sleeves at Alicia viciously.
“Fxxk! You two give me about the same! Song Yazhen was messed up, and she didn't finish it, "Isn't it enough to add to the mess?!" ”
"But it's really like ......" Mariah Carey was still suspicious, and she muttered to herself as she looked at Alicia.
"Don't you watch NBC?"
In front of her, it was likely to be the future governor's wife, and Song Ya felt that this matter had to be explained quickly, "That woman that day was Nurse Charcarlo!" ”
"Oh, the actor in the ER story......" Brenda sneered, "I remember that Bichi." ”
"What do you remember!? Get out of here right away! Song Ya whispered at her.
"Why are you starting to get up to speed again!?" Mariah Carey supported her best friend, "It's really similar, I just recognized the wrong person......"
"Okay, okay, didn't we say we'd never talk about that again?"
Song Ya pushed the two away, "Alicia has a very important matter to find me. ”
"It's up to me to mention it or not! It's really like that, right? ”
"Chacallo, and her? ...... true"
The two women looked back at Alicia as they walked.
"Uh, hehe, I'm sorry, Alicia, they just misunderstood." Song Ya breathed a long sigh of relief and explained to Alicia.
"It's true that a lot of people have said that I look alike to the young actor, but I usually take it as a compliment......"
Alicia, a good lawyer, seems to have guessed the reason why Mariah Carey is angry, her facial expression is becoming more and more subtle, a little embarrassed, a little realized, and a little proud? Her eyes when she looked at Song Ya also began to play, "Is there anything between you and that TV star?" ”
"Uh, once, once drunk...... By the way, didn't Eli say you and Peter couldn't be here today? ”
Song Ya felt more embarrassed the more she explained, so she simply changed the topic rudely.
"Oh, let's get down to business, Peter really won't be here, but I wanted to represent Sean who was transferred to New York, but the FBI turned it down on interest-related grounds, and they're still doing everything possible to delay the lawyer's involvement after Vic's accident brought them to shame."
"There are two pieces of information that have been revealed here, that the FBI investigation has involved Peter, and it is very likely that they have chosen Sean as a tainted witness, or at least the main target of the interrogation," Alicia said. ”
"Let's go in and talk, it's not convenient here." Song Ya looked around and proposed.
"Okay."
She followed behind Song Ya with a horseshoe bag for work, "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry today and didn't ......"
"Nothing?"
"Bring in the right clothes." She replied.
"Oh." Song Ya almost thought crookedly, and looked back, it turned out that she was referring to the standard professional skirt that she didn't wear evening clothes but still wore a lawyer's standard professional skirt, of course, she had a very sense of design, and it should be very expensive, "It's okay, it's important to get down to business." ”
It was indeed a clothes rack, about the same height as Juliana Margareth, he thought to himself.
Walking into the villa, Mariah Carey and Brenda were leaning on the staircase on the second floor and muttering, "It seems that Taraghi didn't come today?" The female assistant from APLUS was much more likable than Linda......" Mariah Carey was asking Brenda.
Song Ya almost tripped over the stairs.
"Peter has already told me about the deal between you two."
Alicia walked into the study and put down her bag, "Don't worry, I represent your business, and I am also protected by the immunity of the lawyer's client." ”
"Really? How much did Peter say to you? Song Ya told Old Mike to stay at the door and close the door.
"Well, anyway, I know it all."
Alicia immediately looked at the room vigilantly, "We won't talk about specific cases today, I just learned that the FBI has applied to the Department of Justice to open an anti-corruption investigation into law enforcement in Chicago and Cook County, Peter believes that this is an act of retaliation by the FBI for his public support for Vic and others, so he intends to resolutely urge the Department of Justice to abandon this action." ”
This woman has become quite clever after knowing the seriousness of the matter, hehe, Song Ya secretly complained, "Peter wants to start sniping from that level?" Is his strength enough? ”
"Yes, that kind of investigation of Chicago politics no one wants to see, so I think Peter's resistance should be of some use." She replied.
Song Ya pondered for a while, "Okay, you also let a lawyer you can trust represent Sean as soon as possible, do you need me to use some upper-level relationships as well?" ”
"No, Peter specifically told you not to get involved in too many politicians, and we will find another way on Sean's side." After saying that, Alicia said goodbye and left, and she had to rush back to Chicago overnight.
Washington, Assistant to the Commander and Deputy Chief of Staff of the White House Podesta hurriedly left the FBI Director's Office, and Fries called his staff immediately after sending him out, "Little Daley came up and used his trump card, Podesta is his old relative, and he is also the most trusted staff of the Commander-in-Chief, and he is also the bridge between the Chicago Donkey Party and the Commander-in-Chief......"
"For what? The Whitewater case? The staff seemed to be in a bad mood when they saw him, and guessed the trouble.
"No, it's just the murder of Inspector Peter Frock and APLUS."
Fries shook his head: "Podesta just hinted that I would suspend my application to the Department of Justice for a special investigation into Chicago law enforcement. ”
"Then we ......"
"I'm asking for your opinion." Fries couldn't make up her mind on her own.
"We just said hello in order to get the investigation application approved by the Ministry of Justice as soon as possible, and there are people from the Elephant Party, if we suddenly suspend it ourselves, then ......"
The staff said hesitantly: "It's just a small case, will the Donkey Party be so serious?" ”
"At least Daley Jr. is more serious, the general commander and deputy commander are both from the Donkey Party in the South, and when next year is an election year, they have a bad relationship with the Midwest Donkey Party for this kind of thing......
"It's not that serious, is it?" The staff asked again.
"In that case, Peter Frock should be their long-made choice for governor of Illinois...... Fries' replied.
"That'...... It's a bit serious, but the governor of Illinois is a high-risk position in its own right, and there are many precedents for getting out of office for corruption. The staff said, "And if we dig deeper into this matter, we can affect little Daley's choices." ”
"That's because Chicago's power is too strong in Illinois, and successive governors often seize power with the Daley family and Chicago politics, and Peter Frock shouldn't ...... He went to prison for a corruption case, which means that he may have a handle in the hands of Daley Jr. and others, or that his 'loyalty' in prison has won the collective approval of Daley Jr......."
Fries slowly paced around the office, "You give me an opinion?" ”
"Although the Grand Commander and his wife are in great need of our support now because of the Whitewater case, since Podesta has personally come to inquire, I think it is better to at least delay the special investigation application process for a while, and then we will decide whether to implement it when the time is right. Specific to the murder of the detective...... If Podesta hadn't mentioned it, let Carl Lightman and their detective work continue. ”
The staff came up with an idea.
"Okay, let's do it, you go and urge our doctor of psychology again, he is very powerful, but the speed is too slow, and if it continues like this, it will bring us unpredictable trouble." Fries nodded.
"I understand."
Chicago, back here again Jill Grayson with his crime scene investigation team is carefully searching, sparing every place.
"Here ......"
Wearing rubber gloves, Jill Grayson touched the dust on the floor next to the wall, "Bring that chair." He asked the team to bring the chairs, kept adjusting the position, and soon the four corners were all aimed at the shallow dust.
They looked up at the ceiling, and there was a small vent above them, and one of the crew members stood on a chair, unscrewed the vent, and fumbled inside, "Nothing." ”
"Impossible."
Grayson put it on, but he didn't touch anything himself, he put his hand on his chin and just stood in contemplation for a while, then continued to shine his flashlight carefully at the edge of the vent.
"Give me a knife, no, a pen, a pencil, a little sharp."
He reached for a pencil, and then reached into the bottom of the vent, very gently, and after ten minutes, a very thin fishing line was picked up by the tip of the pen, and the fishing line glowed silver under the light of the flashlight, and one end was tied to a small nail in the ventilation duct.
The male group members below whistled.
"Sean, you're really good at hiding, so what are you hiding?"
Grayson muttered to himself as he carefully tugged at the fishing line, and a key was pulled out.
