Unhurriedly drove back to the "Insomnia Building", 800 meters away with one foot on the accelerator to the end, Luo An took the elevator up, silently thinking about how to write the $1.4 million report.

"Guys, I'm back."

Walking into the office area of the special investigation team, Luo An said hello loudly.

The usual responses were gone, and Roan looked up to find that everyone had gathered around the small TV at the front of the office area.

Luo An frowned slightly, and walked over quickly:

"What's wrong?"

"There's something wrong on the other side of Wall Street."

Lacey swallowed her saliva, turned around to give way to Luo An, and said with a complicated expression:

"Have you ever heard of Bernard Madoff? It was the former chairman of the NASDAQ, who was arrested.

This guy has been playing Ponzi schemes for the past few decades. ”

On the television, a live broadcast of Bernard Madoff being taken away was being played.

There were many reporters nearby who held up the microphone and shouted like crazy to ask Bernard Madoff questions, but they were all stopped by the surrounding NYPD, and Bernard Madoff himself lowered his head and said nothing.

And the white man who escorted Bernard Madoff next to him was none other than Roan's familiar face, Director Elmer.

"Wow."

Luo An's eyebrows furrowed and he sighed, he had just met with Director Elmer a few days ago to discuss the matter of Bernard Madoff selling financial products at a low price, but he didn't expect to start acting today.

"Nearly $50 billion, one of the largest funds in the world, is actually empty! The whole fund is even just a Ponzi scheme......"

On TV, the blonde hostess was shocked and kept chanting "God", and behind her, many people shouted "God" in the same way, and many more cursed and greeted Bernard Madoff and his family with various words.

"That's a ......"

In the office area of the special investigation team, Chenier and Winslow were speechless, and they couldn't come up with suitable adjectives after thinking for a long time, and Michelle next to them snorted coldly and said:

"So, there's no good guy on Wall Street, it's all liars and lunatics."

Lacey was more concerned about something else, she frowned and asked:

"How did this Ponzi scheme last for more than 20 years and never be discovered?"

As the insider and behind-the-scenes guide of the whole thing, Luo An said lightly:

"No, it shouldn't be said that it wasn't discovered, but that it's only now being debunked."

It was naturally impossible for Director Elmer alone to push forward the case and the arrest, so Roan had previously introduced him to Mr. Clement and FBI Director Robert.

The two discussed the matter with the IRS director, and the three of them brought in some top figures from other departments, and multiple departments worked together to finally expose the matter, and Director Elmer was just a vanguard in the eyes of the public.

This is also the reason why Luo An did not choose to participate in this matter: there are complex factions and factions behind it, and it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between enemies and teammates.

Roan is still young, and unlike Director Elmer, who lacks a strong thigh background and lacks great credit, he has an opportunity in the future, and there is no need to get involved in this matter.

At the same time, Roan also proposed to Director Elmer a plan to protect the funds of middle-class families who were deceived to the greatest extent.

Although you can't get back all the defrauded funds, it's better than not getting a penny in your previous life.

The live broadcast on TV continued, the exclamations and inquiries of reporters alternated with the shouting and scolding of passers-by in the background, and the office area of the special investigation team was quiet, and everyone thought silently without saying a word.

In the next few days, the front pages of the major media outside were almost occupied by this Ponzi scheme that shocked the world.

The detectives of the special investigation team were surprised and checked the follow-up development of the incident, but still continued to deal with the follow-up of the bombing case + the Salls case, and the work still needs to be done.

On Friday, at half past four in the afternoon, the agents began to rest after a busy period of work, preparing to wait for the clock at the front of the office area to get off work.

As the team leader, Luo An naturally has to lead by example, so he also walked out of the team leader's office and began to fish and chat with the agents.

"Everyone, everyone! Look at me, look at me! ”

At this moment, Lacey suddenly coughed a few times and stood up, clapped her hands to attract everyone's attention, and said in a loud voice:

"I'll make an announcement!"

Luo An stuffed a nut into his mouth and asked with a smile:

"What's wrong? You're getting married? ”

"Almost, not far away."

Lacey smiled, took out a few photos from behind her, and shouted:

"Everyone! The house I bought has been renovated and taken care of!

Tomorrow, Saturday night, everyone will come to my villa! Let's have a party! ”

"So fast?"

"When?"

Winslow's face was full of surprise, Chenille and Michelle were also shocked, and Lacey smiled, her hands on her hips proudly.

The Federation does not have too serious concepts of new houses and old houses, and the same house sometimes goes through many owners.

For example, Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman bought the house when she married her husband, and the property has gone through three generations of owners before them.

The house that Lacey bought was also not a new house, and there was a homeowner before her, so after Lacey bought the house, she directly removed all the decorations of the previous owner, and then let the renovation company replace it with the style and decoration she liked.

While everyone was playing in the office area, Lacey put her arm around Mona and smiled at Luo An:

"Borrow Mona tomorrow, I'm the only one in that house, the party needs to be prepared, I need manpower."

Luo An spread his hands, Mona agreed that he would naturally not say anything, and in a blink of an eye Luo An suddenly thought of something and asked:

"Did you invite anyone else besides our investigation team?"

"Of course!"

Lacey nodded as a matter of course, she also had her own social circle.

Luo An raised his eyebrows:

"It's not all women, is it?"

"How is that possible?"

Lacey's face was full of unhappiness:

"Although I am lesbian, it doesn't mean that I don't make friends with men, OK?"

“OK。”

Glancing at Winslow, who was stealing Lacey's snack next to him, Luo An grinned and nodded.

————

In a community of villas in western Washington, D.C., villas not only have separate lawn trees, but each villa is also far apart.

On Saturday, at half past eight in the evening, in a villa at the southernmost end of the community, restless music buzzed and roared.

Lacey stood by the pool in a neutral outfit and shouted with the microphone:

"Girls, me!"

"Oooh-oh-"

"Lacey! Lacey! Lacey! ”

On both sides of the pool, more than 30 beautiful girls in simple clothes applauded wildly and cheered.

Lacey laughed, threw down the microphone and rushed into the crowd, her left and right hands up and down, and the scene was suddenly filled with girls' screams and laughter.

“……”x2

At the other end of the pool, Roan and Winslow, sitting on beach chairs, are covered in black lines.

In the huge villa, in addition to the two male characters of Roan and Winslow, there is only one pet male dog who doesn't know who brought it.

and a white man in a plain shirt and shorts, with gray hair and wrinkles on his face, who looked to be in his sixties and wore sunglasses on the big night.

Luo An picked up the beer and touched it with the strange man, and asked with a smile:

"Meet you, my name is Roan."

The man took off his sunglasses and said with a smile:

"Just call me Piero, I'm a friend of little Lacey, and I'm a priest by profession."
