Chapter 1888 The Connection of Destiny

Someone is trying to kill me!
This is the only thought that Director Johnson has at this time.

He thought about it all night, not sure what to do. After a night of hard thinking, he called Lynch in the morning.

After seven o'clock, Lynch just came back from exercising.

As the bodybuilding and fitness craze continues to spread, a community service company in the villa area of ​​Mid-Levels has used a construction site to build a gym.

Those who can live in the villa area of ​​Mid-Levels are not short of money, and most of them have memberships in some gyms or have their own fitness trainers.

However, most people do not have a complete private gym with various equipment.

The emergence of community gyms has filled this vacancy.

There is no fee for site use, and everyone lives in the same community. They don't say how familiar they are, but they are basically people who have met a few times.

With a relatively comfortable environment, people don't feel too awkward with each other.

Community service companies have also arranged for fitness coaches, and there are also various nutritionists and other coaches who provide professional fitness advice for business owners!
It's just for simple use and doesn't require any fees, but if you need the help of these professional coaches, you have to pay another sum of money.

Lynch exercises either in the morning or at night, and he is reluctant to go to ordinary gyms.

After all, as a celebrity like a star, it is definitely not a good experience for him to appear in such a place.

A bunch of sweaty men and women would come and chat with him, which was not what he wanted.

The gym in the community is only open to residents in the community, which provides great convenience.

Only need to pay an additional 800 yuan per month to enjoy professional services, Lynch thinks it is a good deal.

When he came back, his muscles were tense. The trainer was very professional and knew that what people who live here don't want to have terrible muscles, but a healthy body.

Therefore, the intensity of the training plan provided in terms of muscle gain is not as strong as that of those focusing on bodybuilding.

The phone interrupted his bathing plan, and after a few quick showers to wash off the sweat on his body, Lynch left the bathroom and picked up the phone.

"Mr. Lynch?"

Johnson's voice is different from others, a little hoarse and old.

Lynch recognized it all at once, "Yes, what's the matter?"

Without any hesitation, Director Johnson directly stated what he had been thinking about all night, "Mr. Lynch, someone asked me to investigate the criminal evidence of the Brothers Grimm..."

After he finished speaking, he closed his mouth, a little uneasy.

The Brothers Grimm had become the largest bootleggers in York State.

Although the Federation allows alcohol legally imported from abroad to enter the Federation, taxes, policies, quantities, etc. have always constrained ordinary people's liking for alcohol.

Just like workers who are used to having a big beer after get off work and eating some high-calorie food, telling them not to drink is almost killing them!

Fortunately, the workers' union found some other ways to solve this problem. They used some unique flavored potion formulas and aerated them to make the drink they invented taste like drinking beer.

Thus solving the dissatisfaction of the working class with no beer.

But this can only solve part of the people, there are more people in the society who need it, and there are huge profits in it!

So smuggling started to flourish.

The ruthless style of the Brothers Grimm made people dare not compete with them for business. In addition, they killed the five big families of Bu Pain, and York State was their people from top to bottom.

Most of the bootleggers have left, and only a few family-based bootleggers are left with small-scale shipments.

These shipments did not have much impact on the bootlegging of the conglomerate business.

The Contraband Investigation Bureau usually arrests those who secretly brew and sell alcohol at home, not the Brothers Grimm.

Of course, on the surface they are not selling alcoholic beverages, but selling all kinds of sandwich candy, grape juice, grape bricks and so on that adults will like.

When no one investigates their businesses, these businesses are obviously legal and compliant.

But once someone wants to investigate them, these businesses will become illegal.

Whether it is legal or not depends entirely on the attitude of the law enforcement officers.

In the past, when no one targeted the Brothers Grimm, Johnson, as the current director, did not trouble the Brothers Grimm, so naturally no one else would take the initiative to do so.

But now, someone has said hello, and once he does it, he will definitely gain something.

After all, the criminal evidence has been kept there all the time, and it is not for anyone to just write a disclaimer to get rid of all legal responsibilities.

Breaking the law is breaking the law, this is an unchangeable fact!
Director Johnson was a little terrified. Once he attacked the Brothers Grimm, did it mean that Lynch would also attack him?

As a native Sabine, he has witnessed Lynch's development process from scratch, and he knows very well that Lynch is much more terrifying than others imagined!
Lynch's voice didn't change, he was only interested in the person who made the request, "Whose order?"

Johnson still has no hesitation or concealment, "It was ordered by the director of the State Bureau of Contraband Investigation."

The Bureau of Contraband Investigation is a vertical division, like the FBI.

Institutions with such great powers are mostly vertical departments in the federal government, and local governments cannot guide, higher, or interfere with their daily work unless authorized by a higher level.

But even if authorized, it is only for a while.

Lynch frowned slightly, then stretched out, "I'll call you at noon, and I'll tell you what to do then."

Johnson breathed a sigh of relief from the busy tone on the receiver, and he suddenly felt someone behind him hugging his waist from behind.

The smell of shampoo made him fascinated and filled with guilt.

Of course, those feelings of guilt are slowly fading.

"what happened?"

asked his wife.

"You rarely get up so early."

Yes, Johnson has retired, he is now approaching 60 years old, and his physical function is not as good as when he was young.

Coupled with work reasons, he usually goes to bed late and wakes up late.

It was the first time during this period of time that it was so early today.

Johnson held her hand and shook his head slightly, "I'll take care of it, don't worry."

The woman was Michael's wife, and they ended up getting married because the kids needed a full family.

Michael was convicted of a felony and had two more years to come out.

Before, Director Johnson planned to fish him out in advance, but because his rise exceeded the upper limit in the Special Talent Recruitment Act, he is still in it now.

His wife, his son, all became a problem.

Incapable of working herself, and with a mountain of debts and bills to pay, Johnson eventually helped her.

For this reason, he divorced his first wife, and had a fight with his two former children and hardly saw each other.

In exchange, he and Michael's young wife formed a brand new family and had a child of his own.

He is now the pillar of the family. Women still have no ability to work. It is already a great improvement to take care of the family.

The eldest son, that is, Michael's son, has already gone to college. Even Lynch's college is still a heavy education expenditure.

His own son is still in elementary school and will definitely go to college in the future, which more and more reflects his significance to this family.

In the reform of the social security system, there were changes in pensions, so that he could get a salary of more than 700 yuan, and now it has become more than 600 yuan.

It seems that it has only been reduced by more than 100, but the price at this time is difficult to compare with that of a few years ago or ten years ago.

This amount of money is not small, but it is really not too much to support the family.

Fortunately, he had an extra salary when he was rehired, and at the same time, he received a salary from Lynch as a consultant, which supported the family.

He is very clear that he can't have something to do, if something happens to him, the whole family will be implicated!

People are always like this, no one can make you make any compromises when you have no desires or desires.

But once you have concerns, bow your head everywhere!

On the other side, after Lynch hung up the phone, he called Senator Langdon and asked who was in charge of the Contraband Investigation Bureau.

There are only two possibilities for the Bureau of Contraband Investigation, either directly under the Office of the President, that is, only the President is the top leader of this agency.

There is another kind, which belongs to the comprehensive management of the federal government.

In this part of the federal government's comprehensive management, Congress has a lot of power, and many parts are even managed by different committees of Congress.

For example, some departments in charge of finance belong to the Appropriations Committee and the Budget Committee.

On the surface, the directors or ministers of these departments are the highest leaders of the departments, but in fact, they still have to listen to the Congress.

Congress says what it does.

Senator Langdon didn't quite know what Lynch wanted to know, but it didn't prevent him from giving Lynch an answer.

"The Contraband Investigation Bureau belongs to the Health and Drug Safety Management Committee, and now this committee is headed by ..., ..., ... three people."

Three senators, plus about a dozen representatives, this is the structure of most committees in Congress.

After saying this, Senator Langdon asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"I have some friendship with one of them. We have cooperated in previous cases."

"Make an appointment, I won't show up, you can ask who asked to investigate the Brothers Grimm, I don't want to know the process, I just want to know the result."

Of course Senator Langdon knew about the Brothers Grimm, so he agreed casually, "No problem, I'll take care of it in two days."

Although Lynch's tone could not hear any ups and downs, it was very firm, "Go now."

Senator Langdon froze for a moment, "Okay, Boss, I'm going now!"
