Mrs. Hareton used her position as a bait, and now the only people who knew her location were bodyguards, servants, lawyers, and these few people, believing that if there was an accident, it must be that something was wrong with one of them, so that the investigation could be narrowed.

But even if she used herself as bait, she didn't want to be swallowed bait, so after thinking about it for a while, she called the bodyguards outside the door and asked them to clean up a room, she needed to leave this bedroom for a while, of course, there was still a fake target on the bed, it was not difficult.

One of the bodyguards couldn't move Mrs. Hareton to another room, and he had to wake up the people on duty to deal with it.

The three personal bodyguards in the building will have a rotation off each time, but Hareton has just returned today, so only one person is left for the time being, and the other two will take over for him to guard the rest of the night after a while.

Of course, with Mrs. Hareton's financial resources, it is impossible to have only these three bodyguards, but the others are responsible for the security of the manor, and these three people are the personal bodyguards who are really arranged inside.

The whole process of moving was done by the bodyguards, and the servants had been arranged by them to rest downstairs in advance, also to minimize the possibility of Mrs. Hareton's location being known.

The people attending the meeting today are not all shareholders of the Foundation, in fact only some of the people that the Hareton family can control, and not all of them are in the Foundation, and there are a few people in charge of the business of other companies.

In the past, these people were all connected by Mr. Hariton, although Mrs. Hareton knew about them, but there was not much intersection between them, and she only took action to recontact these people after Hareton's death, so she can't be sure who is the ghost who appears here, this time the plan to use herself as a bait is only temporary, and it may be more troublesome to completely solve the threat she faces.

Bradley Lester, the second largest shareholder of the Hareton Foundation, the head of the securities company under the name of the foundation, he also has a lot of power in the foundation, and many of his descendants are in management positions, but he has not been able to control the foundation, and all the business is basically completed under the command of Harriton, but he did not get the notice of Mrs. Hareton to attend the meeting, and did not participate in the video conference this evening, but he still quickly got the content of the meeting last night early the next morning.

Mrs. Hareton's guess was of course correct, and some of the so-called descendants of the people who attended the meeting had already jumped to other tracks with the actual situation in mind.

For the dead Pete, the minority shareholder, Lester of course knew this information, but he was very sure that this matter was not done by himself, and he already had some bad guesses when Jimmy came to visit, after all, there was an important person around the dead Hariton, Lucas McKinley, the human resources director of the foundation, this guy is a dog of Hareton, and many of his own people have been stuck by him, but because of his relationship with Hariton, he has never been removed from his position for more than ten years.

Killing Hareton and McKinley at one time was a big blow to the Foundation, although I don't know if the murderer deliberately detonated it when they were together, but it is undeniable that the death of these two people directly caused a huge power vacuum in the Foundation, and after a short period of chaos, Lester immediately arranged for his own people to make internal adjustments, and temporarily took the position of director of human resources.

It's just that their movements are still a little slower, and Mrs. Hariton, who has been far away from the management position, suddenly came back, and used her identity to replace the dead Hareton as the chairman of the foundation, although they didn't do anything, but the foundation has returned to normal order, but the undercurrent caused by the previous turmoil has not stopped.

Lester's shares are not much less than that of Mrs. Harriton, since he has already adjusted the personnel, it is impossible to stop like this, Pete, a small shareholder, is a person Lester contacted before, but before they could do it, Pete died suddenly, or died of accidental electrocution, of course he didn't believe it.

Mrs. Hareton has been missing for a few days, and she has tried to contact others to find her, but to no avail, Mrs. Hareton returned to her manor last night, and she had just undergone surgery.

According to Mrs. Hareton herself, she had been in a car accident before, so what was going on?

It's been many days since Hareton died, and if it's just to kill Mrs. Hareton there's no need to wait so long, then the only possible reason is that after Mrs. Hareton came back and took Hareton's place, someone wanted to kill her, not because she was Hariton's wife, but because she sat in that position, and maybe did something else she didn't know about.

After Lester made up a big scene, he decisively blamed Mrs. Hareton for Pete's death, she must have arranged for someone to kill Pete before returning from the hospital, which means that she thought that Pete did her previous car accident?

Pete's communication with himself has not yet had a thorough result, it is impossible to get rid of Mrs. Hareton before this, Pete is not so bold, so why does Mrs. Hareton think it is Pete?

She specifically mentioned this incident at the meeting at night, could it be that she was interfering with other people's judgment?

Lester now doesn't know if Pitt has revealed the content of his communication with him before, and if so, will Mrs. Harriton's target be turned to herself?

After thinking about it for a long time, he directly greeted his driver and left the company, and now he may need to go to a safe place for a few days first, and then it is time to make use of his connections.

——

Jimmy has temporarily given up stimulating these people, panic is not thirsty to drink water, it can have an immediate effect, this takes time to ferment, if you want these people to panic enough to go the wrong way, at least a few days to let them understand the situation and communicate with others, otherwise the effect will not be too good.

Now the most important thing for him is to sort out the report according to the inquiry situation recorded in his small notebook, although it is definitely impossible to solve the case, but as long as his investigation results are detailed enough, there is no credit and hard work, so that no one will question his ability, and also show how hard he is.

Copywriting is always the most time-consuming and troublesome, Jimmy didn't write much in one night, and spent a whole day in the hotel to get it done, this is not the final version, waiting for the follow-up investigation of the incident to make adjustments at any time.

Looking at the time, Jimmy cleaned up and prepared to take advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do in the last few days to prepare for a trip back to New York, but he obviously thought too much, and the next morning, before Jimmy left for the airport, he received a call from Dave, asking him to pick him up at the airport, and Dave would arrive in Los Angeles at noon.

Jimmy hung up the phone helplessly, looked at his packed suitcase and smiled bitterly, it's over, his plan to skip work is completely over, Dave must be no good to come over.

He called to cancel the ticket, reopened the box, took out his notebook and boredly looked through his records to kill time, now that this little time was not enough for him to make an appointment to meet those people, it was better to wait until noon when Dave arrived to see what he had to say.

It was not easy to get Dave to come to Los Angeles without saying it on the phone, and it was not a small matter.

Sure enough, looking at the way Dave only took a briefcase with his empty hand, he knew that he was definitely not here for a tour, and it was likely that he would not stay for long, and he didn't even bring an escort.

It was inconvenient for the two of them to say anything outside, and when they got in the car and left the airport, Dave asked, "Is there any new news in the past two days?" ”

Jimmy stared at the road ahead and said, "No, I've been sorting out the report for the past two days, and it doesn't make much sense to continue the investigation, I plan to go back after a stage report." ”

Dave: "Any bad news for the others?" ”

Jimmy: "I haven't asked yet, but I guess they're having a hard time." ”

Dave: "Okay, stop for now, I'm here to communicate with the office here, and if everything goes well, I hope you can get involved in the death of those two people and find out the real cause of their death." ”

Jimmy frowned and glanced at Dave and said, "Is it necessary?" They should have finished the autopsy, and it is not even ruled out that they have been buried. ”

Dave: "Maybe someone else will be killed, but it's not over yet." ”

Jimmy was silent for a while, and finally asked the words that were muffled in his heart: "Dave, I want to ...... Can you tell me what exactly you're going to do? ”

Dave sighed: "It's just that some people want to suppress their competitors, but they don't want to make such a big deal, they just want to use the previous case to drag them down." ”

Jimmy: "Commercial?" ”

Dave: "No, politically, haven't you noticed the time?" Now is the time for the primaries for those candidates in the party. ”

Jimmy let out an "ahhh ”

Dave sighed in his heart, only Jimmy will not pay attention to political matters at all, his father-in-law's family has a clear partisan tendency, especially Kevin, as the director of the NYPD, has a very good relationship with the mayor, and is obviously also a supporter of the Donkey Party. "Maybe Harriton's death was related to other things in the first place, and the rest of these things shouldn't have much to do with it."

Jimmy thought for a moment, frowned and asked, "Will political things lead to someone being assassinated?" They are not candidates, nor are they key figures. ”

Dave: "The key depends on their position and character relationship, in fact, one of them is really critical, Claude's old guy happens to be the soul of someone's campaign team, but because of his age, the matter is handed over to his son to deal with in the open, the other party can accurately kill such a key person, the plan must be not small." ”

Jimmy squinted his eyes, he just killed a scum casually, and the previous investigation of him only had the most basic information, I didn't expect him to have such a relationship, it seems that this incident made Dave and them all want to be crooked, he really didn't expect this effect.

Dave: "Okay, I'll take a break and send me straight to the office." ”

Jimmy: "Okay, I guess it'll take a while. ”

Jimmy stopped talking and sent Dave to the Los Angeles office building, while he waited in the car and didn't follow him.

Sitting in the car, Jimmy has been pondering Dave's words, obviously most of his previous guesses are right, the only mistake is the position, I thought it was just a business problem, but I didn't expect it to involve politics, as the boss of the FBI in New York, Dave should obviously also be the Donkey Party, but Los Angeles is also the base camp of the Donkey Party, are these businessmen like the Party? It shouldn't be.

If they are all donkey parties, it is intra-party competition, and they really do everything, even a homicide case has to be used to delay the actions of these people, and sure enough, the election year is a political year, and it is better not to get involved too much in a political novice like yourself, no one is around to mention it, and you can't handle these dirty things behind your back.

It would have been nice if Kevin had been around at this time, he had been in New York for many years and must have been familiar with the way these people behaved.

Secretly determined, after Dave's side arranged things, he must go back to New York as soon as possible and communicate with Kevin's side, after all, this is really his own person, and the possibility of others using him is too great, in case he gets involved, it is not good to put himself in it.

Dave didn't eat at noon and came directly to the office, which should be more important, maybe this time things will be particularly tricky. It's no wonder that Jimmy is cranky, people like Dave have always planned and then acted, except for the time when he was shot, Jimmy rarely saw him in a hurry, except for speculating that things were troublesome and related to him, he really couldn't think of what could make Dave so anxious.

While Jimmy was thinking, Dave came down from upstairs, pulled the car door and sat in the passenger seat, he looked at Jimmy and said, "When was the last time you contacted Mrs. Hareton?" ”

Jimmy: "Two or three days ago, she was in the hospital and had surgery for a heart problem. ”

Dave: "Did you see her in person?" ”

Jimmy: "No, just a video link with her lawyer." What's wrong? ”

Dave: "Based on the information provided by the informant, Mrs. Hareton has been missing for several days and may be ....... ”

Jimmy frowned and said, "No, I see from the video that she should be recovering well, quite energetic." ”

Dave thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, you can continue to contact her to see how it goes." In addition, the few people who let you come into contact before, stop, there is no point in it. ”

It's just these two days, the update time will be a little messy, and it will definitely be restored by the weekend at the latest, I promise
