Entering the inquiry room, Luke and the others just stood in the corner, silently watching the others communicate with Grote.

Mahoni is a capable and resolute young police detective, and at the age of 26, he has just been promoted to sergeant.

What's more, he is one of the few police detectives in the 15th Precinct who has not been in the same boat, and his life here is a bit difficult.

Like Mr. Fodgematt, he was a native who grew up in the Clinton area and had a different affection for the area.

is also the same, so that he can keep the bottom line in his heart and not become a black policeman.

Grote, with the joint efforts of Fudge and Mahoney, quickly lost his temper and honestly confessed a lot of important information.

For example, he had never mentioned that the attacker had been rumored to be among the gang members, and that he was alone.

As Luke said, several other gangs are suspected of having been attacked by this man.

This Grote is really dishonest.

He was really killed by the attacker, and he was not wronged at all.

After more than ten minutes of questioning, Mahony went out to answer the phone, and then when he returned, he threw Grote a prison uniform and threw him into a separate detention cell, which was considered protective custody.

Only then did Mahony signal Fudge and Luke to follow him, walked to the corner, and whispered: "The district prosecutor said that he wanted to come over and take over this case, you ......"

Luke: "We don't interfere. ”

Mahoni immediately looked at Fudge: "Once the local prosecutor assistant proposes a deal, it doesn't matter what it is, you better agree, otherwise they will be remembered, and your affairs will not want to have a good life in the future." ”

Fudge: "I understand. But what do you know about the attacker? ”

Mahony looked at the two Lukes on the side again.

"We only learned about this case this morning, and we don't know much about the inside story." Luke smiled.

As soon as he said this, both Fudge and Karen's faces were a little strange.

Luke wasn't embarrassed.

He and Mahoni don't have any friendship, and of course important information can't be revealed to Mahoni casually.

Mahoney sighed: "Originally, the community reconstruction began, and the environment in Clinton District was much better. Now that this kind of bloody case has been committed, everyone's impression of Clinton District is probably still "Hell's Kitchen." ”

The crowd was silent.

Mahoney sighed before continuing: "Originally, when everyone heard the word "hero", they would think of Batman. Seeing Batman and other "vigilantes" beating up some bad guys on the news was as exciting as the Yankees hitting a home run. Right now...... Hehe, I'm afraid everyone will have concerns about "heroes". This guy has made the streets bleed with the bad guys, and the residents don't want an extra bunch of such "imitators". ”

Fudge smiled bitterly: "But I'm afraid there will only be more and more imitators." ”

"Black Mask, Big Daddy, Super Killer, Smiling Man, Black Cat, how many are there? Although most of the imitators are just coser enthusiasts with brain problems, these "vigilantes" are now bringing more and more security problems to New York instead of tranquility. Mahoni shook his head.

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice: "Now we have been divided into two factions here, one faction thinks that they have helped a lot and saved police resources. The other faction felt that they were no different from the criminals and that they should be arrested. ”

Speaking of which, he was also a little excited.

As a policeman, I either hope for "vigilantes" or want to arrest "vigilantes", which really makes people feel helpless.

At this time, he looked at the door and there were two people coming in, Nunu said: "The people from the ground inspection are here, I still have to go and get busy, Fudge, you go and communicate with them yourself." ”

When everyone looked, they saw a man and a woman wearing typical black office clothes, walking over.

She was led by a Hispanic woman in her early forties, and a black man in her early thirties was one step behind.

Fudge's face changed, and he turned to Karen, "How am I dressing?" Nothing is wrong, right? ”

Karen looked up and down and nodded, "No problem." Why are you nervous all of a sudden? ”

"That's Samantha Reyes, the boss of the office." Luke shook his head: "Fudge, you still have to be mentally prepared, I'm afraid this person is not here to negotiate with you." ”

Fudge straightened his hand and paused, "Huh? ”

Luke: "It's said that she doesn't like to save face very much, and she changed three assistant prosecutors in two years, all of whom were fired after making mistakes. ”

Fudge's face fell, "I've heard about it too, thank you so much." ”

With this kind of comment, it doesn't sound like a person who is easy to deal with, let alone the other party is still the chief district inspector.

Having said that, he calmed down and walked over with a smile on his face.

……

Five minutes later, Selena chuckled and whispered in Luke's ear, "Fudge, this little fat man is very bold." Does the chief magistrate dare to scare him? Also call the federal prosecutor for advice, haha. Reyes's face is about to turn into a black face. ”

Luke nodded slightly: "It's still with a question mark." ”

This is indeed the case.

Facing Fudge with a smiling face, Chief District Inspector Reyes was not interested in listening to his self-introduction, and after interrupting his self-introduction, he took it upon himself to tell his assistant to take Grote away.

Yes, she was speaking to her assistant, not to Fudge, and seemed sure that the little lawyer would never dare to oppose her.

Outcome...... She was slapped in the face.

Fudge sensed that the other party wanted to bypass him directly and take Grote away, and immediately rebounded strongly.

He took out the law that the district attorney had no authority to meddle in witness protection operations and threatened Reyes with the federal prosecutor for such violations.

Reyes's expression at that time was extremely exciting, his face was dark, not to speak, but also full of doubts and puzzlement.

She didn't expect that there would really be a stunned young lawyer who would dare to do it against her.

Her approach is definitely an illegal operation, but most of the junior lawyers dare not face the chief magistrate, otherwise they will be tossed out of neuropathy by the magistrate's office.

Lawyers in the United States are more cooperative with district prosecutors and police departments than adversarial relationships.

Many barristers do not simply have a high level of defense, but have a deep relationship between the two parties, and can easily do things that other lawyers cannot do.

For example, if a junior lawyer can't bail out, a barrister can bail out.

The junior lawyer cannot reach a plea deal with the district prosecutor, but the barrister can.

With enough money, a barrister can easily get his client out of the police and magistrate's office, and it's perfectly legal.

On the contrary, if the lawyer offends the chief district prosecutor, then the other party only needs to put him on the blacklist of the district prosecutor's office, and the lawyer will have to exhaust his energy in every lawsuit he fights in the future.

Not to mention that most of the local prosecutors have a close relationship with the police department, and whoever asks them to arrest suspects and convict them one by one, there are even more people who are transferred to the local prosecutor by police officers.

It's really irrational for Fudge to do this.
