Chapter 78: The CIA comes to the door
Coverdale looked at the person in front of him and asked tremblingly, "You...... Who are you! β
The man smirked and said slowly, "Senior CIA agent, my name is Jerome!" β
βCIAοΌοΌοΌβ
Hearing these three words, Coverdale went limp.
Thinking of the CIA's brutal waterboarding, the whole person almost collapsed, but suddenly he seemed to think of something again, as if grasping a life-saving straw and shouted: "You can't arrest me, I've already paid taxes to the IRS, I'm a good tax collector under their command......"
In fact, he was a little sick and rushed to the doctor.
At that time, David had promised him that he would not expose his information.
But if he gets caught, he will blame the IRS!
But where can Coverdale think so much at this time.
In his opinion, he was caught by the FBI and CIA, and the only one who could save him was the IRS!
"IRS!"
Jerome was startled and turned his head to look at Broad on the side.
"On December 3rd, Congress passed a bill called the Black Tax Act, which stipulates that from now on, any income from any illegal business will be taxed to the IRS," Broad explained in a deep voice......
Hearing this explanation, Broad finally understood.
But he seemed to remember something again, his face was a little ugly, and he said: "That means that the IRS found this guy before us, and it knows what he does!" β
Jerome nodded, his face a little ugly as well.
They have been tracking down this Coverdale for more than half a year, but they have never been able to find any trace of this guy, and it is not until this guy has now gotten carried away and invaded the Pentagon that they can be regarded as caught.
Unexpectedly, it had only been more than a month since the black tax bill came out, and the IRS caught this guy one step ahead of them, and even forced this guy to pay taxes.
The CIA is known as the world's No. 1 intelligence agency, how the did the IRS do it?
Putting away his thoughts, Jerome turned to Coverdale and asked, "I ask you, you hacked into our CIA system last month, took a list of our Bear Country site, and later handed it over to a spy, who is he?" β
"I ...... I don't know......"
"Smack!"
As soon as Coverdale finished speaking, Jerome slapped him in the face, and his face instantly became red and swollen.
"Tell me honestly, otherwise you will feel good!"
Coverdale shuddered, covered his face and replied, "I really don't know, that spy is very cautious, she and I don't have contact with trading......"
ββ¦β¦β
Half an hour later.
Jerome and Broad walked out of the apartment building and got into a black Cadillac.
"What he said should be true!"
Broad nodded in agreement, and continued: "According to him, at that time, because of the tax reduction policy, he assisted the IRS in digging up the spy, and he was indeed notified that he could enjoy the tax deduction, which means that the spy was dug up by the IRS!" β
"I really can't imagine that this group of IRS guys is so pervasive, and we have spent a long time trying to find people, but they have been dug up without much effort!"
Jerome's face froze, and he was also very unhappy.
He had thought that the IRS might just be lucky enough to dig up the Coverdale.
What they didn't expect was that the IRS people not only dug up Coverdale, but also dug up the spy they had wanted to get rid of for a long time!
If this matter reaches the ears of their superiors, won't the two of them become pure waste?
After all, intelligence has always been their CIA's strength, but it turns out that it is not as good as the IRS, which is engaged in taxation, which is somewhat embarrassing.
The more Jerome thought about it, the more unwilling he became, and said: "That spy is too cunning, we will continue to investigate, and we may not be able to find her out in a short time, but her information has been mastered by the David inspector, we may be able to talk to him!" β
Broad was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "According to the confidentiality agreement of the Black Tax Act, the IRS has the right to keep their taxpayers confidential, and we have no right to ask them to provide information!" β
Jerome's face turned cold and said, "That spy almost lost the entire Bear Country site, and also caused great damage to the rest of our country, if the IRS knows the general situation, it should abandon his bullshit rules and system and fully cooperate with us!" β
This made Broad a little speechless.
That's right.
But first of all, the IRS is only responsible for collecting taxes, as long as they pay taxes, what spies or crimes have nothing to do with them at all!
And if the spy was given to them, wouldn't the IRS lose a lot of tax revenue in the long run?
It's no wonder that this person is willing!
But before he could think any further, Jerome had already started the car.
Broad hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?" β
Jerome replied as he hung up, "Go to Las Vegas and talk to Inspector David!" β
Hearing this, Broad's lips touched and touched, but in the end he couldn't say the words that stopped him.
Because he knows the character of his partner.
Forget it, let's try our luck!
β¦β¦
Carson City and Las Vegas are both in Nevada, and the two places are not too far apart, and Jerome's car stopped in front of the IRS Lake District office in a little more than an hour's drive.
After getting out of the car and walking in, he found Debbie in the reception hall and asked, "Is Inspector David in the bureau?" β
Debbie was stunned for a moment, and immediately corrected: "David is no longer an inspector, he is now the tax commissioner in our bureau!" β
"Tax Collector!"
Hearing this, both Jerome and Broad were a little surprised.
As far as they know, the IRS promotion is very difficult, even more difficult than their CIA!
From Coverdale's mouth, they learned a lot about David, and they also knew that the inspector was very young, only in his 20s.
If you are promoted to tax commissioner in your 20s, seniority alone is not enough!
Unless......
This David inspector, after the introduction of the black tax bill, has excellent ability, so he can be promoted like this!
But then again, if this David wasn't very good, how could he have dug up Coverdale and the spy before they got the CIA?
Thinking of this, the two were relieved.
Then, Jerome took out his ID and replied, "We are from the CIA, please tell Tax Commissioner David, we want to talk to him!" β
"CIA's!"
Debbie was also stunned, but quickly reacted and picked up the phone on the counter.
