After some retribution, David finally understood what was going on, and after a moment of contemplation, he replied, "Deputy Commissioner Donald, according to what you say, the committee thinks that we have launched an investigation into the members of Congress, so what if I haven't investigated?" ”

"You haven't investigated? How do you know about Pepps and the shipyard during the TV debate? ”

"I really haven't looked into it, and as for why I knew about the shipyard, as I said in the TV debate mitigation, it's hearsay."

It is true that David did not investigate Pips, because the information he obtained was presented to him by a complete cheat.

"Hearsay? Are you sure David, we're not outsiders, what can you tell me frankly. ”

Donald still didn't believe it, how could this hearsay know such a detailed account of the shipyard?

"I've been pretty honest with Deputy Commissioner Donald, and there's nothing to deny it, I really just received it from somewhere else and didn't investigate Councillor Pepps."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for five seconds before a voice came: "Okay, wait for my call!" ”

After about half an hour, David's phone rang, and when he saw that it was Donald calling, he immediately answered it.

"We've communicated with the committee, but they don't believe that your Western Suburbs Branch hasn't investigated Pips, so the Committee has decided to send an investigation team to your Western Suburbs Branch to investigate, do you have any problems?"

"No problem, I'm welcome!"

"Okay, this investigation team is transferred from the FBI California office, and it should soon arrive at your western suburbs branch, so you can cooperate when the time comes!"

"Understood."

After ending the call, the corners of David's mouth raised slightly.

The three Pipps guys were just trying to use the Western Suburbs Bureau to investigate the members of Congress as an excuse to cause conflict between the committee and them.

But if this investigation team comes and can't find anything, then the committee will naturally have nothing to say, and these three guys can also shut their foul mouths!

At two o'clock in the afternoon, David, who had been notified, was already waiting in the lobby on the first floor.

He can not be a bird in the FBI office in California, but after all, this group of people has another layer of identity, the investigation team sent by the congressional committee, so he still has to give some face.

A short time later, a Ford Explorer pulled up at the door, the door opened, and four men in suits and leather shoes looked very smart.

The man with sunglasses in the lead stretched out his hand to introduce himself as he walked towards David: "Hello Director David, my name is Wheatley, an agent at the FBI office in California. ”

"Hello Agent Whalet."

"I was commissioned by the Congressional Committee on Taxes to investigate, and if there is anything offended, please don't be surprised by Director David."

As an FBI agent, Willett certainly knew that David was not easy to mess with, so to be honest, he didn't want to take this errand at first.

After all, this is an investigation on the territory of the Western Suburbs Branch, which is an easy job to offend people.

But there was no way, the Congressional Tax Committee looked at his file and knew that he was the most capable agent in California, and named him to investigate, and finally he had to come under pressure.

"Where, since the committee sent you to investigate, then our Western Suburbs Branch will naturally fully cooperate!"

With that, David turned his head to Keanu and introduced, "This is the deputy director of our bureau, Keanu, and he will cooperate with all the work you need." ”

"Trouble Deputy Chief Keanu."

"You're welcome Agent Whalet."

After the two shook hands and reached a preliminary understanding, David spoke again: "Agent Whalet, most of the information, files, and data of our Western Suburbs Branch can be accessed by your team, but because some taxpayers are involved in confidentiality regulations, we can't disclose these materials to you, right?" ”

"No problem, let's get started."

Whalett had been tasked with checking whether the Western Suburbs Branch had investigated members of Congress, so there was no reason to snoop on the privacy of IRS taxpayers.

David nodded, and then asked Keanu to begin the investigation with the team while he returned to his office.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Neeson pushed the door in and said, "Director, you asked me to check Stevenson's recent situation, and I have some eyebrows. ”

"Tell me about it."

David folded his hands and listened with interest.

"According to the information of the Intelligence Bureau, this guy has been running to New York State since he stepped down in Nevada, and with the funding of two Wall Street financial firms, 'Houshen' and 'Wolfat', he has achieved a lot of prestige in Buffalo, the state's second largest city, and according to some relatively reliable rumors, he has been nominated by his party and is ready to start running for the Senate before the midterm elections."

"Oh?!"

David's expression was a little surprised, because of New York, the world's number one city, so the strength of New York State should not be underestimated, and its economic aggregate and importance ranked third in the United States, second only to Texas and California.

And if the state wants to compete for the only two senatorial seats, it can be said that the eight immortals have crossed the sea to show their powers.

It is really surprising that Stevenson dared to run in such a difficult state, and he was successfully qualified for the party's nomination.

"What is the origin of the two financial companies of 'Haoshen' and 'Wolfat'?"

"According to the information we have found, these two companies are controlled by Mogen Chase."

"Demon Root Chase!"

Hearing these four words, David's pupils suddenly shrank.

The popularity of Mogen Chase, not to mention in the United States, is famous even if you look at the whole world.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this company is a giant in the financial world.

And the Mogen family, who owns this company, is the top chaebol family in the United States, holding the original shares of the Federal Reserve.

Could it be ......

What does this Stevenson have to do with this Root Chase or the Root Family?

As if to see what David was thinking, Neeson also continued to explain: "This Stevenson does have some connection with the Mogen family, and according to the information we have found, his wife is the niece of the current head of the Mogen family. ”

Hearing this, David finally understood.

He said, when he was in Nevada, this Stevenson was about to be killed by him, how could the General Administration suddenly call him and ask him to stop here.

If there is a relationship between the Demon Root Family, this seems to make sense.

In the face of such a top chaebol family, considering the comprehensive influence of this family, it is normal for the top executives of the IRS to sell face.

"If he had this connection, why didn't we find out when we were in Nevada?"

David muttered to himself, when he was preparing to attack Stevenson, he naturally investigated the background of this guy's information, but he didn't find out this.

Neeson explained: "There is no way, Nevada's intelligence system is still a little behind, and it is much worse than our Western Suburbs Bureau. ”

This made David suddenly realize, yes, it is not an exaggeration to say that Nevada is a poor and remote country compared to California, and the intelligence system there is not as good as the intelligence system of the current Western Suburbs Bureau, which is also a normal thing.

"Look, Director, this Pips is just a member of the House of Representatives, and he has caused us so much trouble by standing up and attacking the black tax bill, let alone a senator who has come forward, so I think that even if this Stevenson has something to do with the Morgen family, it must not let him succeed in the election!"

Neeson reminded in a heartfelt voice.

In fact, there was no need for him to remind him, and David naturally recognized this.

The relationship between the House of Representatives and the Senator is, in layman's terms, that the former proposes a plan, while the latter has the power to make decisions.

The same goes for the deputies and senators among them.

However, if you get in the way of this guy, it is not very difficult to do it with David's current methods, but I am afraid that I will offend a giant like the Demon Root Family because of this.

And offending the Mogen family, if you don't do it well, it is tantamount to offending the Freemasonry.

He didn't want to be the second open-minded Ken Bady.

But if you don't get rid of this Stevenson, if he really gets elected, then with the grievances between the two sides, it is estimated that he will have to bear it in the next few days.

After thinking about it, David couldn't think of a better way for a while, so he could only explain that Neeson continued to pay attention to this guy, and then slowly thought about it in the long run.

Anyway, the midterm elections will come in November, and there is still time.

……

Two days later.

Washington, D.C., Capitol Hill, in an office in the Capitol Building.

Rep. Pips, Prinhall, and Timothy were sitting with serious expressions, and across from them was none other than Melinda Booz, the current member of the House of Representatives Tax Committee and the chair responsible for the Black Tax Act.

About ten minutes later, as there was a knock on the office door, the three of Pipps looked expectant, and the next second, they saw Wheelett walk in with a briefcase.

"President Melinda, Councillor Pepps, Prin Hall, Panelist Timothy, ......"

Wheelett shook hands with the three of them one by one, and Peeps couldn't wait to speak: "Agent Whalet, is there a result?" ”

Whalett nodded, then took a document from her briefcase and handed it to Melinda.

Melinda took it and pushed her glasses and examined them carefully, but her expression soon became strange.

Pipps couldn't hold his breath and said loudly, "What's the matter, Chairman Melinda?" ”

"See for yourself."

Melinda didn't answer, but handed over the papers, and after the three of Pips took them, they looked at them with wide eyes.

But as the content of this document and report came into view, the faces of the three Pipps also instantly fell, and finally he said with a little anger: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, the Western Suburbs Branch has definitely launched an investigation against me!" ”

According to the report, the Western Suburbs Branch did not go out of its way to investigate the actions of the councillors.

But his own family knows his own affairs, and when David was in the TV debate, he not only pointed out the involvement of the two shipyards, but also pointed out in detail who he had reached an agreement with.

How can this be known so clearly unless it has been investigated in detail?

"Agent Whalet, have you really investigated clearly?"

This time it was Timothy who was questioned, and he didn't believe that David had pointed out so many of Pipps's insider deals based on rumors alone, and he must have secretly investigated them.

"My team and I stayed in the Western Suburbs for two days, and we almost turned them over, but we really didn't find any signs that the Western Suburbs Branch had investigated Congressman Pepps and other members of Congress."

There was a hint of displeasure in Whalett's tone, was that questioning his abilities?

Then don't ask me for this thankless work!

The office fell silent in an instant.

It wasn't until ten seconds later that Pips seemed to think of something, suddenly turned his head and stared at Wheelett with a sharp gaze, and asked, "Agent Whalet, you tell me the truth, you won't be threatened by Davy too, right?" ”

After talking to Stevenson before, he got to know David better and knew that this man had a way of threatening people.

Therefore, he seriously suspected that the Whalett in front of him might have been caught by some kind of trick or threatened in some way.

As soon as these words came out, the other two councillors also reacted, waiting for Whalett with suspicious eyes.

"Councillor Peps, what are you thinking, I'm the investigation team sent by the committee to the Western Suburbs Bureau, how dare David threaten me?"

This is no longer questioning his ability, or even questioning his character, at this moment, Willett is also angry, and his chest is constantly rising and falling.

Pips turned his head, looked at Melinda and said: "Chairman Melinda, I don't approve of this investigation, then David, you don't know, his methods are very vicious, I ask that an investigation team be sent from Washington this time to re-investigate again......"

"Why are we David so vicious!"

Before Pips could finish speaking, a voice of extreme dissatisfaction reached everyone's ears, and everyone turned their heads to see that Obadiah and Donald had already pushed the door and walked in.

Pipps was stunned, they didn't expect the two giants of the IRS to suddenly come here.

"Director Obadia, Deputy Director Donald, why are you here?"

Melinda stood up, as the chair of the tax committee, she and the two men who came in couldn't be more familiar.

"I heard that the results of the investigation are out, so we just wanted to hear what the situation is, why, I just heard from Councillor Pepps, it seems that I don't agree with the results of the investigation?"

As the head of the IRS, Obadiah's aura is naturally not weak, and as soon as the words came out, the three of Pips also subconsciously shrank their necks.
