Special Investigation Unit Office Area, Conference Room.

At the end of the long conference table in the center of the room, near the doorway, lay several thick folders.

In a chair at the conference table, Michelle came face-to-face with a female agent from the IRS, poring over the documents on the table to see if there were any wrongs or problems inside.

On the other side of the conference table, Luo An sat with a middle-aged white man chatting over coffee, and the two of them were full of smiles.

The person who came was none other than Roan's acquaintance, Elmer, the head of the IRS-CI (Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Section).

However, the word team leader is the title of 05 years, and in 06 years, Elmer team leader has successfully taken a step forward, and has now been officially promoted to one of the supervisors.

In a place like the IRS, which recognizes money but not people, it is inseparable from the assistance of real money to be able to defeat others for promotion.

Supporting Elmer's successful political achievements is naturally the [CFO kidnapping case], the [villa girl disappearance case] and the [judge hotel movement murder case] that Luo An asked him to deal with last year.

The number of cases was not large, but there was a lot of real money in it, which allowed the team leader Elmer at that time to get a large amount of taxes.

At the end of the year, when the colleagues compared and reviewed the business, Elmer's team leader punched the opponent, kicked and sat in the position of supervisor.

Successfully ascended to the position, how could Director Elmer forget that Roan Greenwood, the head of the FBI Special Investigations Team who helped him a lot, wanted to contact Roan to express his gratitude as soon as possible.

However, Luo An was busy with other cases at that time and did not have time, so Director Elmer did not come to the door to disturb, but pushed the time to the present when Luo An was not busy.

From the moment he entered the office area of the Special Investigation Team and saw Roan, the smile on Director Elmer's face never stopped, and his eyes were full of kindness.

The female IRS agent who watched this scene once wondered if Roan and Director Elmer were related, because Director Elmer had always been known for being a serious and ruthless figure when he was in the IRS, and the smiles on his face were only a handful.

"That's so polite."

Receiving the high-end tea gift from Director Elmer, Luo Ann had a smile on his face.

The fact that the other party was promoted to supervisor was indeed a bit unexpected by Luo An, but after thinking about it, Luo An also realized that this was a great thing.

Needless to say, the reputation of the IRS in the Federation is that in the movies of the Federation every year, all kinds of black FBI, black CIA, and black other government departments, but they just dare not hack the IRS, which is enough to show the image of the IRS in the hearts of the Federation people, as well as its status as a bigwig in the Federation.

IRS-CI (Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division), is the big guy in the IRS department, and now Elmer has become one of the directors of this department, and Roan maintains a good relationship with him as the head of the FBI investigation team, and the benefits definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

For example, in the process of investigating some cases in the future, if you encounter a hard bone that is difficult to solve, as long as the situation and method are appropriate, Luo An will call Director Elmer, and the other party will definitely not be stingy and help him solve the small difficulties.

The connections in IRS-CI are not something that ordinary people can have.

Or, in other words, most federal law enforcement executives don't have that kind of connection.

Elmer and Roan chatted in a very harmonious atmosphere, and after a brief greeting, Director Elmer took out a childlike invitation from his pocket and said with a smile:

"By the way, the day after tomorrow, that is, on Sunday night, I held a coming-of-age party for my eldest daughter, which was an invitation made by my youngest daughter."

The coming-of-age ceremony is a characteristic activity of the federal state.

In the average federal family, adulthood means independence, part-time work, and then pay rent and food expenses for the family, and there are also children who move out directly.

In wealthy families of the middle class and above, the coming-of-age ceremony is more of a social state, which means that from that day on, the child transforms into an adult and needs to formally assume family responsibilities.

Being invited by parents to their children's coming-of-age dinner means that the relationship between the guests and the parents is very close and very good friends.

Although Elmer was promoted to director, he did not develop a condescending attitude towards Roan, and still intended to deal with it as a friend.

In the same way as Roan, Elmer also wants to have a good relationship with Roan.

On the one hand, Luo An may be able to bring him a case with a large amount of taxes in the future, so that he can take another step.

On the other hand, Luo An's ability to solve cases is excellent, there are people behind him to support, and he is so young, his future is bright, and there is a high probability that he will go higher and farther than himself in the future, Elmer will think about his next generation even if he does not think about himself.

"What a lucky girl."

Luo An accepted the invitation with a smile, and then chatted about the other party's two children.

Director Elmer and his wife have two children, the eldest daughter is an adult this year and has a more stable personality, and the second daughter will go to middle school next year and has a quirky and naughty personality.

"Don't worry, I'll be there that night."

Luo An happened to have nothing to do on Sunday night, and immediately said that he would definitely not be absent that night, and then said with a smile:

"I hope your daughter will like the gift I gave that night."

It is also a tradition of the Federation to give gifts, and under normal circumstances, the other party will open it on the spot to express their gratitude, and if the children of ordinary families do not like it, they will take it out and return it, and the person who gave the gift will not be angry.

"Team Leader Luo An is so young and handsome, my daughter will definitely like the gift he gave."

Director Elmer laughed, and the two briefly chatted about other topics, and after a few minutes, Michelle walked up to the two and nodded, indicating that there was no problem with the documents.

“OK。”

Hearing this, Luo An's face smiled even more, and he stretched out his hand and shook Director Elmer's hand:

"Thank you for your hard work this time."

"It's not hard."

Director Elmer stood up, his eyes narrowed, and his smile was full of sincerity:

"Happy working together!"

"Of course, it's a pleasure to work with!"

The two shook their hands heavily, looked at each other and smiled, and after a brief chat, Director Elmer led the people away.

When Roan and Michelle sent people away, turned around and returned to the office area of the special investigation team, Mona, Chenelle and others all came up, and Lacey asked with curiosity on her face:

"Ann, what is Team Leader Elmer here for?"

"Team Elmer has been promoted, remember to call Elmer the next time we meet."

Luo An took out the folder from the conference room, patted Racy's head lightly, and then said with a smile:

"He came to the special investigation team today, so naturally he gave us a gift!"

Lacey clutched her head in confusion, as did Mona, Chenille, and Winslow.

The gift Luo Ann said refers to the previous [Judge Hotel Movement Sniper Case] (Chapter 398), after being detected, the company, industry, and illegal gains of the suspect Trevane Sheffield were sold and distributed.

Under normal circumstances, it would take at least a year to start selling off those criminal industries, and perhaps two or three years.

But with Elmer's successful promotion to director, in the spirit of reciprocating the favor, Elmer immediately took the IRS agents and worked overtime to deal with the sale of those criminal assets, and assigned the share that belonged to the special investigation team.

Director Elmer is here today to deliver money.

According to the previously agreed distribution requirements of the special investigation team with a 44% share of the case, a 31% share of Elmer's supervisor, and a 25% share of the investigation team, the head of the Department of Justice, Cecilia, after the sale of the criminal assets, the special investigation team received a total of 4.84 million US dollars.

In addition, when the IRS seized and processed Trevyn-Sheffield's criminal estates, the combined value was more than $11 million, with the IRS-CI accounting for 60% and the Special Investigations Unit accounting for 40%.

This 40% part totals about $900,000, plus the previous $4.84 million, and the special investigation team's harvest in that case totals $5.74 million!
