North American Rough Police: Starting from the Los Angeles Patrol

When he was about to arrive in Beverly Hills, Locke hesitated again and again, but was still ready to talk about money. After all, he originally planned to use his private money, which was US$360 million, which was not a small amount.

He turned and glanced at Marianne, "Mum, about money..."

"You don't have to worry about money..."

Marianne leaned on Li Bo and said with a relaxed look: "The total of your two bonuses at the FBI is 100 million, plus this check from Loew, it's 200 million. Glenn said you reported Henry Cavell, the IRS (U.S. Internal Revenue Service) will give you an informant reward, at least several hundred thousand, and my dad and I will also support some of it, and your dad will make a loan application for you for the rest. I know National Wells Bank We have a branch manager who lends money very quickly. You can help us deduct hundreds of thousands of dollars in tax when you buy a house this time..."

She straightened up and sighed in disbelief: "Todd, I really can't believe it. It only took us less than an hour to decide to buy a house worth 360 million yuan..."

Li Bo also looked in amazement and shrugged: "This does sound a bit unbelievable, but Locke already knows the background of the house. Let me remind you, before officially signing the contract, you still have to make sure that this house is not involved in any lawsuits. …”

Marianne glared at him dissatisfied, "Don't question my expertise..."

"and many more……"

Locke turned to look at Marianne, "I just seemed to hear the IRS reward, why didn't I know?"

For reporting tax evasion, the IRS will reward the whistleblower 15-30% based on the tax recovered. The rewards given by the IRS each year are usually about 10 billion US dollars.

There are even professional bonus hunters who specialize in reporting tax evasion, with an average income of hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

Well, to give an example, a bank employee in Switzerland reported tax evasion by his company and received a reward of nearly [-] million U.S. dollars, recovering billions of U.S. dollars in losses for the IRS.

In fact, according to regulations, there is an upper limit on IRS bonuses, and the upper limit of rewards cannot exceed US$2000 million.

The large rewards in IRS history were all negotiated in advance.

If a host reports a certain star, he can get at least 1.2 million and a maximum of 2.49 million according to the IRS reward ratio.

Marianne looked innocent, "Didn't Glenn tell you?"

"..."

Locke immediately guessed what was going on and curled his lips, but his heart felt warm. It seemed that there was no need to use the money in the storage space this time.

After a while, he said, "Todd, Marianne, thank you!!!"

To be able to support him in buying such an expensive house, it is not too much to say that a father's love is like a mountain and a mother's love is like an ocean.

Li Bo stretched his hand forward and squeezed his shoulder, "Since you have decided to buy a house, your mother and I will certainly support you. This house is really good, and it was missed. But, Locke, are you sure you live alone? Is there really no problem there?”

Locke knew what Li Bo was asking and shrugged: "When I join the police detective bureau, I will have more opportunities to deal with corpses..."

Marian asked: "How to solve the haunting problem? Ask a priest to exorcise the evil spirits? Or, Todd, how about you go to Chinatown and ask a mage..."

"..."

Locke then remembered the time when Marianne was so frightened by the ghost story that she went to sleep with Hannah. She was obviously taboo about this matter, but she was the first to support him, and he felt guilty in his heart.

He was stunned for a moment, pulled over, with a face full of shame, turned around and apologized: "I'm sorry, Marianne, I lied to you. I made up the ghost story last time. At that time, I searched for Anna and Nathan and used some illegal methods." By some means, I accidentally discovered the crime in the F-10-09 villa. In order to justify it, I made up this ghost story..."

Marianne and Li Bo looked at each other, and Marianne said in disbelief: "So, you deceived everyone?"

Locke nodded and confessed: "If I tell the truth, my confession will be full of loopholes in court, so I can only make up a ghost story so that my confession cannot be used..."

Marianne let out a long breath and exclaimed happily: "So this villa has only experienced deaths and is not haunted!"

Li Bo frowned and asked, "What illegal means did you use?"

"stop!"

Mary said solemnly: "Dear, this matter ends here, we have to pretend not to know..."

Li Bo also reacted and apologized: "Okay, my fault, that's the end of it!"

Marianne stared at Locke with a straight face and asked: "Locke, I'm glad to hear that there is no dirt in this house, but then you need to think carefully about how to compensate for your deception to me. Are you really It scared me..."

Locke looked guilty and turned to Li Bo for help, "Didn't you say this matter is over?"

Li Bo looked helpless and shook his head: "Locke, you really went too far in this matter! Don't you know that your mother never watches supernatural movies? You actually made up ghost stories to lie to her..."

Locke hurriedly said: "Then I will be in charge of dinner later..."

Marianne nodded and smiled: "Very good, this is a good start, but it is not enough..."

Locke suddenly had a bitter look on his face, he really had no experience in coaxing women!

It’s always been women who’ve tipped the scales!

……

The next morning, not long after Locke arrived at the police station, he was called into the office by Anna Davis.

She asked directly: "How are you? Are you nervous?"

Locke knew that she was asking about going to court tomorrow. The case in which he had previously rescued Anna Davis and Nathan and killed four members of the Copernicus organization would officially begin tomorrow.

He said easily: "There should be no problem!"

Marianne has hired an experienced criminal defense lawyer for him. Coupled with the terrorist attack launched by Johnny Dyson in Los Angeles last week, the identity of the Copernicus terrorist organization is even more worthy of its name, so it should be just a matter of going to court tomorrow. Go through a formality.

Anna Davis said disappointedly: "I thought you would be nervous, so I was going to tell you good news..."

Locke stared at her twice and asked tentatively: "Jeff is the judge tomorrow?"

Anna Davis was startled, shrugged and said: "Okay, as expected of someone who will soon become a police detective. Okay, you can get out!"

Locke couldn't help but laugh. Jeff Davis was actually the judge tomorrow, so it was really foolproof.

He stood up and said: "Anna, thank Jeff for me!"

After all, Jeff Davis had some involvement in this case. The person Locke saved was his wife. If the judge cherished feathers, he would avoid it.

Anna Davis replied: "You can tell him yourself after the court is over!"

Locke waved and walked out of the office. Anna Davis watched him leave with a somewhat hesitant expression, but in the end she did not speak.

After leaving the office, Locke's expression calmed down. Through L2's micro-expression analysis, it seemed that Anna wanted to see him for something, but she didn't say anything in the end.

He shrugged. Since he didn't speak, it shouldn't be anything important.

As soon as we went downstairs, Detective Edmund from the police detective team came over, "Locke, the gun you fell into the Los Angeles River yesterday was recovered by the firefighters. I sent it to the Equipment Department for maintenance for you. Just wait a minute. You can pick it up before leaving for work..."

Locke said gratefully: "Thank you, Inspector Edmund!"

Detective Edmund smiled and said, "You're welcome. I heard that you will take the police detective exam at the end of the month?"

Locke nodded and said, "Yes, thank you for your previous guidance!"

He had previously consulted Detective Edmund about what materials he needed to review for the police detective exam.

Detective Edmund was surprised: "I didn't expect you to review so quickly. I prepared for the police detective exam for half a year. Come on! I'm looking forward to you joining the police detective bureau, Locke!"

"Thank you, I'm looking forward to working with you too!"

Locke sent Detective Edmund to the door. Detective Edmund was sure that he would join the police detective bureau, so he made a good relationship in advance.

He did not ask about Daisy Greenberg's case, although he was indeed curious. Both car accidents were accidents, which reminded him of another profession in the gray world that is as famous as scavenger.

He was even more curious, how could anyone want to kill an autistic person?

Well, actually he felt that Daisy Greenberg was not just autistic, this woman had self-destructive tendencies.
