Chapter 319: Agents of the military
It can be difficult to find answers based on existing clues. But once you have the answer, it's much easier to get to the bottom of it.
Therefore, after receiving the return from General South, the military didn't even use it for a day, so they immediately figured out that it was really the next trick used by this guy Justin Hammer. At this moment, even the military generals who had a deep relationship with Hammer Industries had nothing to say, after all, it was Hammer Industries that broke the rules first, and Anthony's counterattack was within the allowable scope of the rules, and no one could say a word on this point.
Therefore, the matter of Justin Hammer's suicide is over on the side of the Ministry of Defense. As for others, such as the international bank investor Chevlachev or something, the military will not care, and it has nothing to do with them how many deaths they have.
Of course, some innocuous warnings still fall on Anthony's side. For the so-called kind reminder of the military, Anthony patted his chest and gladly accepted it in person, so he was happy again.
As for Anthony's so-called assurance, in fact, both the military and Anthony know very well that the agreement can be torn up at any time, and it is actually not binding on Anthony at all. After all, now that Anthony's products are not sold, the military cannot coerce Anthony by coercing other arms giants with orders.
The upper echelons of the military have reached a consensus and do not plan to pursue it further, but due to the procrastination style of the Ministry of Defense of the United States in some aspects, the lower echelons of their military have not yet been notified. So they were temporarily dispatched at that time, and the investigation team of the Department of Defense, which was responsible for investigating the murder of Justin Hammer, found Anthony.
I have to say that there are indeed outstanding talents on the military side, and in less than a day, they have locked up the suspect, that is, Anthony Stein, based on the events that happened all over New York City and the New York Police Department's files on suicide.
In the reception room of Caesar's Palace, Anthony met with these agents who belonged to the Ministry of Defense.
"Hello, Mr. Anthony, I'm Leroy Gibbs, a senior agent in the Department of Defense's Naval Crime Investigation Service, and this is my assistant, Caitlin Todd, Anthony Dinozo II." A rather capable middle-aged man saw Anthony walk in and got up to greet him.
Anthony glanced at the people in front of him, shook hands with them slightly, and smiled, "Hello, I'm Anthony Stein." ”
After a few casual conversations, Leroy Gibbs, who was the leader, began to get straight to the point, looked at Anthony with a serious face and said: "Mr. Anthony, we are here mainly for the murder of Mr. Justin Hammer, there are some things we need to know from you, I hope you can cooperate with our investigation." ”
"Of course," Anthony chuckled, then lit a cigar when the other party said he didn't mind, took a deep breath, and said with a rather sincere look: "It is the duty of every citizen to cooperate with and assist law enforcement in their investigations, and I, as an honorary citizen of New York City and a nominee for the Department of Defense Capstone Award, will certainly lead by example and support the work of your law enforcement agencies." ”
When Leroy Gibbs heard Anthony's words, not only did he not show joy, but his face tightened, he glanced at Anthony deeply, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "Mr. Anthony, how much do you know about Mr. Justin Hammer?" ”
"Not too much, not too little," Anthony said vaguely.
Leroy Gibbs frowned slightly when he heard this, reorganized his words, and continued: "That...... What is Mr. Anthony's view on the murder of Mr. Justin Hammoyu? ”
"I am very saddened that his departure is a loss to the military industry in the United States, and it is also a loss to the military industry in the world." Anthony sighed, then crossed his chest and said, "May his soul rest in peace, Amen." ”
Leroy Gibbs watched Anthony's contrived performance expressionlessly, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. Although he had known through the information that Anthony was not simple, he didn't expect it to be so difficult. This shameless posture is even more excessive than the few politicians he knows.
However, he also has to be troubled, because Anthony is now the only breakthrough point in their hands, and if there is no breakthrough in this breakthrough point, this case will be in trouble.
So Leroy Gibbs couldn't help but cheer up and continued to ask: "I don't know if Mr. Anthony knows, in addition to Mr. Justin Hammer, there were many deaths here in New York last night. ”
"Really? That's a pity," Anthony pondered for a moment, then waved his hand at the gin standing aside and raised his eyebrows: "I will donate a sum of money in my name to the relevant charitable foundation, and then support a batch of our group's latest model of equipment to the New York Police Department, alas, the deceased has passed away, and the only thing I, an honorary citizen of New York City, can do is to take care of the living as much as possible." ”
"Okay, boss, I'll do it in a moment." Gin nodded, and then disappeared into the darkness again.
Leroy Gibbs looked at Anthony in front of him, and he almost had the feeling that a dog had nowhere to start with a hedgehog. If it weren't for Anthony's current identity that wouldn't allow him to mess around, he would have the heart to use his torture methods to teach him Anthony to be a man.
Resisting the urge to hit someone, Leroy Gibbs simply said straight to the point: "That's right, Mr. Anthony, we have obtained some information from the New York City Police Department, and found that the same case as this case occurred in New York City about a month ago. A large number of Wall Street elites are dying in a manner similar to the way New York City citizens died en masse.
According to the analysis of the data of the New York City Police Department, the last death of a large number of Wall Street elites seems to be related to Mr. Anthony, I don't know if there is anything I want to say about this, Mr. Anthony. ”
Hearing this, Anthony's eyes flashed coldly, he chuckled and leaned down slightly, letting himself get closer to these senior military agents, and then squinted and said: "I don't have anything to say about this, it's been so long, and I'm still making money here safely, it's enough to explain everything." Isn't it? Agent Leroy Gibbs. ”
"Mr. Anthony," Leroy Gibbs glanced at Anthony deeply, and said expressionlessly: "This time is different, this time it is the head of the top domestic military industrial giant Hammer Industries Group who died. ”
"It's the same in my opinion," Anthony chuckled, "because neither of these events had anything to do with me." ”
Leroy Gibbs stared at Anthony's eyes and said word by word: "Mr. Anthony, Mr. Justin Hammer's matter is very important to the Ministry of Defense, and if we don't find the real culprit, we will never close the case." ”
"Agent Leroy Gibbs, are you threatening me?" Anthony chuckled.
"If Mr. Anthony insists on that, I don't deny it," Leroy Gibbs said in a deep voice.
"Does Agent Leroy know what happened to the last agent who threatened me like that?" Anthony chuckled.
Leroy Gibbs squinted and said, "Tell me about it." ”
"He's been sentenced to prison for helping to launder money, as well as being involved in extortion and bribery, and he's now in a prison somewhere in the care I have been told," Anthony said lightly.
"Mr. Anthony, is this threatening me?" Leroy Gibbs said coldly.
"No," Anthony said with a smile, "I'm just kindly reminding Agent Leroy Gibbs not to mess with himself and mess with the wrong people." ”
"Hehe, someone who shouldn't be messed with?" Leroy Gibbs's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he stood up directly and said expressionlessly: "Mr. Anthony's words, I will tell my superiors as they are, and my superiors will definitely come to talk to you in person when the time comes, I hope that Mr. Anthony will be so energetic at that time." ”
"Don't bother," Anthony smiled and pointed to the landline on the desk, "You can contact your superior right now and hear his opinion." ”
