After Isidore left, David looked at Simmons and said, "Keep an eye on him tonight!" ”

"Got it."

After dealing with this matter, the time was almost 10 o'clock.

Today was another court session in Henderson City, and Davy also felt a little tired, so he returned home and fell asleep.

The time came to eight o'clock the next day.

After a night's rest, David was already refreshed at this time, and was about to go to the bureau after brushing his teeth to deal with today's affairs.

But just then, a rapid mobile phone ringtone.

He could only rinse his mouth quickly, then picked up the mobile phone placed on the bedside and looked at it, and saw that it was Keanu calling, so he quickly picked it up.

"How's Keanu Tax?"

"I'm sorry Tax Collector David, didn't bother you so early?"

"No, I'm getting ready to go to the bureau."

"That's good, oh yes, I heard that you just came back from Henderson City, and I have to say, you did a really good job in both cities, and you have made a big deal for our IRS."

"Keanu has been rewarded for his taxes."

"Oh yes, the big case...... Did you encounter any difficulties or need help from our large block offices? ”

Ostensibly, Keanu was asking him if he had any difficulties or if there was anything he needed help from the big block.

But in fact, David heard the meaning of the other party's words.

However, he didn't break it, and replied: "There is no difficulty for the time being, the counterfeit money case already has some eyebrows, and it can be solved today if it is fast, and if it is slow, it may be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow!" ”

"yes, that's great!"

On the other end of the phone, Keanu's voice sounded very happy, and then replied, "Okay, let's not bother Davy's tax commissioner." ”

After the call, David put on his coat, grabbed his tax badge and gun, went downstairs to buy a cup of coffee and a hot dog, and walked to the bureau office.

Knowing that he had arrived in the game, Simmons also quickly came to him and reported: "After the guy returned to the casino last night, he played until 3 o'clock in the morning, and he lost 500,000 in the back of the counterfeit money exchanged for one million, and the remaining 500,000 was laundered into real money by him using the casino, and then he returned home, nothing abnormal." ”

David nodded and said, "Regarding the smuggling case, didn't you say that you found a few people involved, bring them back to me first." ”

"Yes."

Simmons immediately turned and walked out.

After an hour, there was a knock in the office, and then Simmons walked in and said, "Tax collector, the man has been brought back, in the interrogation room!" ”

David immediately stopped what he was doing, came to the door of an interrogation room on the third floor, and when he pushed the door in, he found two men and a woman sitting inside.

[Name: Augustus Lambert.] 】

[Occupation: Smuggled goods broker. 】

[Illegal income: $2 million.] 】

[Income details: On December 7, a buyer named Morrison was matched with a smuggling syndicate and made a profit of $300,000 through the ivory transaction, and on December 18, a buyer named Rutherford was connected with the smuggling syndicate and made a profit of $200,000 through the antelope horn transaction......]

[More details: ......]

[Tax payable: $792,000.] 】

……

【……】

In an instant, David finished reviewing the information of the three of them.

Simmons and their investigation was correct, and the three were indeed involved in the smuggling case in the Main Street District.

As for the identity of these people, they are the brokers of the syndicate, that is, the people who specialize in introducing buyers of smuggled goods for the syndicate.

While David looked at the three of them, the three of them all had jealous expressions after seeing David's face.

Apparently, they knew David.

David put away his thoughts and asked, "Do you recognize me?" ”

The man named Augustus pretended to be calm and replied, "Joke, Tax Collector David, you have been in the limelight lately, and now there are very few people in Las Vegas who don't know you......"

"Since you know me, then I won't talk nonsense, you know what we came to you for, right?"

The three of them looked at each other, and then Augustus shook his head and said, "I don't know about that......"

"Don't pretend, I know you're brokers of the smuggling syndicate, as long as you answer some questions honestly and then pay the taxes that should be paid, I don't want to embarrass you!"

"I ...... We're not brokers, don't talk nonsense! ”

Seeing that these guys were so unrecognizable, David also turned cold and said, "What are you doing on December 7, 2021?" ”

Augustus was a little weak-hearted, but he still said stiffly: "I...... I can't remember......"

"Can't remember?"

David sneered: "Then let me help you recall, on December 7, you found a retired fund manager named Morrison in the big block through your connections, and brought him 4 high-quality ivory tusks from the smuggling group, the transaction was 1.5 million US dollars, and in the end you earned 300,000 yuan in commissions, remember?" ”

After hearing that this incident was pointed out, Augustus's face immediately changed dramatically.

But before he could react, David continued: "And then on the 18th, you brought 20 pairs of high-quality antelope horns from the smuggling syndicate and sold them to a buyer named Rutherford, the transaction was 1 million US dollars, and you earned 200,000 yuan in commissions from it. ”

"And ......"

"Say no more!"

This time, without waiting for David to continue, Augustus interrupted directly, and then said in a dejected tone: "Since you have found out so clearly, then I can only admit it, and I will pay the tax!" ”

David turned to look at the other two, "What about you?" ”

"We'll pay too."

The two of them didn't think about it, and they directly recognized it.

If David had brought them in, and had been able to investigate Augustus so clearly, did he have to think about it?

All their transaction information must have been investigated.

Instead of continuing to fight useless words, it is better to waste less saliva and admit it directly!

"Good!"

David was quite satisfied, and then said, "I also need your favor, I want some information about your launch." ”

As soon as they heard this, the three of them suddenly became embarrassed.

"Why, don't you want to?"

"Not really...... It's just that our upline is sick and is currently being treated on the German side. ”

David questioned: "The scale of this smuggling group that is connected with you is not small, are you just such an online one?" ”

"They are very cautious, for such a long time, the three of us have been connected with a high-level member of their group called Chilwell, and we don't know the rest of the high-level executives!"

"In that case, how are you going to get the goods next?"

David still didn't dispel doubts.

"I heard Chilwell say that a batch of goods will come over in the next two days, and their group will arrange someone to contact us at that time."

"These two days? Is there an exact time? Which route did you take? ”

"I don't know much about that......"

David's face sank, and then he looked at the other two, and suddenly noticed that the female broker named Sharon looked a little abnormal, and he immediately asked, "How about Sharon, is there anything to add?" ”

"I didn't ...... Didn't ......."

"Bang !!"

David suddenly slapped the table on the table, which not only startled Sharon, but also frightened the two Augustas on the side.

"Say whatever you want, don't try to hide it from me, it's not good for you, do you understand, Sharon?"

In the face of the aggressive David, and then remembering his shocking move of entering the Indian tribe with arms, Sharon could still bear it, and immediately said tremblingly: "Once when I met with Chilwell to pick up the goods, he was 1 hour late, and later learned that his truck driver had a heart attack halfway through, and I happened to have a friend who was an unemployed truck driver, so I recommended it to him, maybe my friend knows the route......"

"Okay, ask him where he is now, and ask him to come over!"

Sharon was a little embarrassed, and then said, "This ...... Tax Chief David, this is my friend after all, I don't want him to know that I cheated him, I hope you can understand......"

David pondered for a moment and replied, "Okay, then you can give me his phone number, name, address, etc., and we will take care of it ourselves." ”

"Good!"

As if Sharon had been pardoned, she immediately took a pen and paper and wrote, and when she was done, she tore off the paper and handed it to David.

"Go check it out, make another phone call, don't make a noise first, and take his words."

David took it and handed it to Simmons, who immediately pushed the door and walked out of the interrogation room.

About 10 minutes later, Simmons came back and said, "He's got a fever, he's burning badly, he's at home right now, and he can't come to us." ”

David frowned, then stood up and pushed the door open and walked out, saying to Simmons as he went, "Take me to his house!" ”

……

Half an hour later.

A large neighborhood, a civilian community.

Simmons' car was parked in front of a house at 102.

The door opened, and David stepped out of the car first, came to the door and rang the doorbell.

Soon, an 11 or 12-year-old girl opened the door and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Is Mr. Aubrey at home?"

"Looking for my dad? He had a fever. ”

"We're from the IRS and want to ask your dad for a few words."

David said as he pulled out his tax badge.

The girl hesitated for a moment, but finally turned around, led the two of them up to the second floor, came to the door of a room, pushed the door and walked in.

I saw a middle-aged man lying on the bed, with a towel on his forehead, looking extremely weak.

[Name: Aubrey Jamie.] 】

[Occupation: Truck driver.] 】

[Income: $40,000.] 】

[Income details: ...... from salaries from smuggling syndicates]

[More details: ......]

[Tax payable: $10,000.] 】

After examining it through Goldfinger, after making sure that Sharon didn't lie to him, David spoke up: "Mr. Aubrey, we are from the IRS and want to ask you something!" ”

Hearing someone speak, Aubrey on the bed slowly opened his eyes and looked at David and Neeson who appeared in the room.

But at this time, his expression was a little confused, obviously he didn't hear David's words clearly.

"You go out first, I'll talk to your dad about something."

The girl nodded and walked out.

David then said again, "Mr. Aubrey, we're from the IRS!" ”

"IRS!"

Aubrey, who was still very weak, suddenly tensed up after hearing these three words, and then tried to pretend to be puzzled and asked, "Two IRS gentlemen, what do you want to ask?" ”

"We've investigated and know that you work for a smuggling syndicate, but we don't want to embarrass you, as long as you tell me about the syndicate's hidings and smuggling routes, then I'll turn around and leave, as for the taxes you need to pay...... It's a reward for your meritorious service! ”

It's just a $10,000 tax, and David doesn't bother to deal with it now.

"I ...... I don't know why the smuggling syndicate works, and I don't know what route, you must have made a mistake in your investigation! ”

Seeing that Aubrey still chose to be stubborn, Simmons immediately stood up and said: "Mr. Aubrey, according to our IRS investigation, you have been unemployed for half a year, and all your accounts have not remitted funds for half a year. ”

"What's interesting is that in September, you paid a tuition fee of 20,000 yuan for your daughter, and we also checked your consumption bills for natural gas, fuel and other consumption in the past few months, and the cost was about more than 20,000 US dollars, don't you plan to explain the source of this money?"

Aubrey, who was already pale because of the fever, turned even whiter after hearing this, but he still didn't say a word.

Simmons continued, adding, "If you continue like this, then I will have to arrest and accuse you of unknown sources of wealth and tax evasion, think of your daughter, if you go to jail, how will she survive!" ”

As soon as he heard his daughter, Aubrey couldn't be silent anymore, he gritted his teeth and said: "They will change the location of the warehouse every time, and I don't know the new location yet, but the smuggling route comes from the Red Forest Valley every time." ”

"Redwood Valley?"

David knew about this place, and it was a sparsely populated area about 10 kilometers outside the Indian tribes.

"What time is the next time, and when?"

"At 2 a.m. today, they'll have a shipment arriving!"

"Are you sure?"

"Sure, because I was originally told to go, but I suddenly had a high fever this morning and couldn't go, so I had to ask for leave."

"Alright, Mr. Aubrey, good news for you!"

On the way back, Bucky proposed, "If we're going to 'intercept' tonight, should we bring in some people from another team?" ”

Although the smugglers are not too dangerous, he feels that it is somewhat necessary to be on guard.

"Do you want to transfer the staff of another team...... Forget it, don't use them! ”

If you want to borrow people from other squads, you will have to pay taxes.

Now in this case, the tax is different from the main street.

So why not use the people of the big blocks?

Didn't Keanu always tell him that he needed help finding him, and if he didn't look for it, he wouldn't look for it!

Immediately, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Keanu's number.

"What's the situation, Tax Collector David?"

Soon, the phone was connected, and Keanu's inquiry was heard.

"Keanu tax inspector, the smuggling case is also a bit eyebrow-raising, I need you to arm two inspection teams tonight, come and cooperate with me to go out on a mission!"

"No problem, what time is it?"

When he heard that there had been such a big progress in the smuggling case, Keanu was also very happy and agreed.

"It's 11 p.m."
