It is rumored that the Tsar, who ruled the FBI for nearly four decades, was not only a homosexual, but also a cosmist.

When the well-dressed man appeared at the FBI headquarters in the Robert F. Kennedy Justice Department Building at 950 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., he was His Excellency John Edgar Hoover.

And when in the underground arena with mesh stockings with garter belts and a low-cut shirt embellished with sequins, the nickname "Mary", some people even say that this lifelong unmarried man and his secretary, who also had no wife in his life, are a bunch of love.

This is a claim that has been circulating in New York and Washington for more than a decade, but being widely circulated and openly mentioned in front of the promising F.B.I. chief special agent are two different things.

"Now the elders in my family probably want me to disappear! Damn it! Solomon's temper also flares up, and in front of outsiders, he has always dressed in a standard three-piece suit, with blonde hair, sunken eyes, deep and elegant blue eyes, and a straight nose and a little hooked nose characteristic of the Caucasian race, which adds a bit of mystery to him.

Whenever he made an impassioned statement to the jury in court, many people were drunk under his blue eyes, and offered their intelligence and calmness in a daze, especially among middle-aged and elderly women, and of course there were some men with abnormal sexual fetishes, who were often more fanatical.

When questioning the suspect, Sen's cold gaze can make the violent criminal feel cold in his heart, while in the eyes of onlookers, the "beautiful Solomon" is still personable.

Now he was a little out of shape: "Damn, you dragged me into the water this time." This is not a big case in the first place, it is nothing more than a stupid girl with a watery poplar who is running away from marriage. You go to the New York Police Department and look through the files, at least dozens of cases a year. ”

Stan Gordon didn't speak, and the special agent in charge was a mid-level officer in the FBI's local office, a commendable pride for his age.

But he knew in his heart that he was a poor boy with nothing, and to be able to climb to today's position was to play with his heart in addition to playing with his life, as long as he could have a chance, he would mobilize all resources to gamble, fortunately, most of them were right.

However, something went wrong precisely this time.

"This case can be properly handled by the New York Police Department and the New York State or New York City District Attorney's Office. And you, but you came to tell me that there is oil and water in it, and asked me to cooperate with you as an assistant federal prosecutor to pry the case out of the local area! Pull it to the federal level and file an appeal! It's not in the right place! ”

Under the judicial system of the United States, the FBI is the national police, while the police in each state and city are only responsible for local law and order, and have no cross-border law enforcement powers.

This is unusual for a country that places a high value on state power and is wary of the expansion of the central government's power.

And here again I have to mention the eloquent Ms. Mary, no, the contribution of Director Hoover.

In the early days, the FBI did not have much authority, and the local police force could not help him.

But in the 30s, the "Lindbergh kidnapping case" caused a sensation in the United States: the first hero to fly a plane over the Atlantic without landing - Lindbergh, his 20-month-old child was kidnapped in his bedroom.

The FBI intervened as soon as possible, but was blocked by the local police, and then the child was torn off.

In the investigation report after the fact, it was concluded that the local police's ability to handle cases and their efficiency were not enough to deal with vicious cases appeared in the major newspapers and radio stations, and it is difficult to say how much of these reports and even the investigation report were instructed by His Excellency Hoover, who had only been the director of the bureau for six years.

As a result, the Federal Kidnapping Act, also known as the Lindbergh Act, was enacted shortly thereafter, stipulating that within 24 hours of the kidnapping, the kidnapped person could be presumed to have crossed the state border, and the case escalated to a federal crime and the FBI took over.

Since then, the expansion of the FBI's power has entered the fast lane, and the iron-fisted and cunning Hoover has succeeded every time, and soon the FBI has become a national police in the true sense, and he has also become a terrifying underground czar. The foundation of the new building where the FBI office is located has also been laid, and the Department of Justice building will soon be handled, which also means that the unit that was originally under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice will finally have to stand on its own!

The same is true of the prosecuting authority, which is divided into district prosecutors and federal prosecutors, the latter of which is the only one that can enforce the law throughout the country.

Generally speaking, the local police + local prosecutor are the absolute main force in handling cases, and 80% of the cases in the country are digested in their hands.

The FBI is responsible for cross-border crimes, such as a New Jersey who kills people in New York and then flees to Alabama to steal a car.

Theoretically, federal prosecutors can also participate in such cases, but first, the federal prosecutorial system has far fewer personnel than the local prosecutorial system, and second, the federal system prefers to handle large and complex cases, and does not care about ordinary criminal cases.

Solomon Blomheim had received an uninvited Stan Gordon the other day, and when he looked at the FBI agent who was about his age but at least ten years older, he vaguely felt that this seemed like a good opportunity.

Stan Gordon is clever and cunning, his dog nose can clearly smell the smell of crime and the clues behind it, and he can always trade it for his own career.

"Dami Nizo's alleged murder of Barbara" was taken from the New York Police Department by a lot of effort under the banner of the FBI, if you want to squeeze as much of the benefits of this case as possible, you have to rely on the assistance of powerful allies, it just so happened that he remembered a rumor about the life of Solomon Bronheim that he had heard, and after some investigation, not only found that the rumors were nine out of ten true, but also Solomon's aggressive way of working, and undisguised political ambitions convinced him that this was the best candidate.

"So, you dragged me into the water! And now you're leaving? Let me be laughed at like a clown by the district attorneys?! Don't you think," Solomon was still angry.

"It's a pity, I'm sorry, but I have to say it was an accident, but we couldn't stop it, there really wasn't any news in New York State, but I didn't expect it to break out of New Haven, if it wasn't so sudden, I would have thought someone was behind it."

"Looks like you're not well-informed, my detective." Bronheim tossed over a dossier, "This is an investigative report written by one of my people, which shows that the two brothers, Fericher and Dami, went to a Yale law student named Edward Young. ”

"Law student?" Stan was stunned for a moment, touched his already bald head and began to think, "Someone who doesn't even have the qualifications to appear in court." By the way, I know about that. ”

"Yes, but you didn't pay attention!" Solomon said coldly, "Don't forget where Yale is?" ”

"What do you mean? Who made this news craze from Edward? ”

"Who else? All chance encounters are carefully arranged. If this wave was set off on the banks of the Charles River, it means that this Edward was really not involved. But now ......"

"I'll check on him right away! Use your phone and fax. Stan Gordon realizes that there is a new problem, and although he intends to jump ship, at least the two are currently partners in the same trench.

"Please!"

Ten minutes later, Stan Gordon breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the materials spit out from the fax machine.

"Jewish-Chinese, quite a clever young man, but with no family background, he is a good guy, and he currently lives in a student apartment with a black student with good grades."

"Then why did you quit? Let the NYPD take over for nothing? ”

"It's not easy." Stan Gordon sighed, "This case was in charge of them from the beginning, I was involved in the name of endangering the federal government through the above connections, I was expecting to be able to threaten Ferry as a tainted witness, as long as the mafia is involved, then it is reasonable for the FBI and federal prosecutors to handle the case." ”

"However, now the details of the case have been exposed by the media, and you can see that there is no mention of tainted witnesses. That shows that the other party also has leeway, and their purpose is just to simply go to court to solve Barbara's case. It's not that we can't get off the stage. After all, this kind of coercive out-of-court transaction is in a legal gray area, and it is really exposed, which is not good for us, and they are also afraid that we will use a lot of resources to 'do' the case at all costs, so they leave room to come out. In this case, the FBI's strong involvement in such a case that belongs entirely to New York without any cross-state facts is not conducive to a low-key compromise of the case, well, I mean compromise rather than resolution. And I'll have to work in New York in the future, and I can't do it too well. ”

"So, you're asking me to sweep you up?" Solomon said coldly.

"Well, in return, how about I give you an inside message?" Stan Gordon thought for a moment.

"Message? Do you have any misconceptions about the federal prosecutor's network pipeline? Solomon smiled, assistant federal prosecutors like him were well-connected, and he could know a lot of Washington in five minutes.

He kind of looked down on little Stan Gordon, who was small, bald, coated, and daring, nominally called an agent, but looked more like an insurance company salesman, and he didn't believe that such a person could have any confidential inside information.

"Well, let me tell you, a couple of old men on Capitol Hill have been privately discussing an issue recently - the prosecutorial power will be independent from the executive power!"

"What!" Solomon has seen the world since he was a child, and others can commemorate it for a lifetime if they shake hands with the president, but he is different, he was hugged by the president when he was a child.

But Stan Gordon's words made his whole body tremble with excitement.

"How is this possible?" He still couldn't believe it.

"How could it not be? The separation of powers is the foundation of the country, but when the founding fathers signed the declaration, they didn't even have a car. Stan Gordon shrugged.
