Legendary FBI Detective

Chapter 358 Luo An digs a hole and the confrontation at the shareholders’ meeting

 Special Investigation Team, office area.

Roan did not explain in detail to the confused looks from Mona, Lacey and Michelle. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and left the office area, and started to make a call:

“Wander? Yes, it’s me, Roan Greenwood.

 I have something good to say to you...I didn’t lie to you, how could I lie to others? It’s really a good thing..."

"Sir Elmer? Hello, I'm Roan Greenwood. I have a case here that I think you might be interested in..."

Seeing Luo An standing next to the coffee machine and talking on the phone with a friendly smile on his face, Michelle still tilted her head in confusion. Seeing this, Lacey patted Michelle's arm and whispered:

“Did you see the expression on Luo An’s face clearly? Be careful with this expression. It means Luo An is going to dig a hole for others again.”

Michelle was a little surprised when she heard this, Mona was speechless, and when Lacey was about to continue talking, Luo An turned around after making the phone call and said with a smile:

 “Lacie, Michelle, there is something you need to do tomorrow.”

"What's up?"

Luo An did not answer immediately, but the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

　　——

 The 28th hour when Kara disappeared.

 Pleasanton is located in the heart of the federal state of California, about 100 miles south of San Francisco. It has very convenient transportation hubs with Northern and Southern California.

The Muller Group is located in this city. At 9:30 in the morning, the group’s internal shareholders’ meeting was held. A group of middle-aged white men in suits and ties took their seats.

Sitting at the head of the conference room was a middle-aged white woman wearing a women's suit, with long red hair and a gentle face.

 “Jacenia, why is there another shareholders’ meeting?”

As soon as everyone sat down, an elderly white man sitting on the left side of the long table asked with a cold face:

“The current internal situation of Muller Group is very bad. You held a meeting to find out which branch has financial problems again?”

 Elderly white people don’t care about the Muller family. They care more about the interests at hand than the so-called “sentiment.”

If Jessenia hadn't used coercion and inducement to divide the shareholders in the room, making it impossible for them to unite, the old white people would have gathered everyone to overthrow Jessenia.

“There is only one topic at the shareholders’ meeting today, and that is the issue of the Muller family’s shares.”

Facing the cold treatment from the elderly white man, Jessenia smiled slightly and explained:

“As we all know, our Muller family members have encountered unexpected events in recent months, which has made it impossible to inherit the shares held by the Muller family smoothly, which has caused a lot of trouble for the Muller Group..."

Jesinia did not blush or breath when describing these things, as if everything had nothing to do with her. She pretended not to see the shareholders on both sides of the conference table with different expressions, and continued:

“But fortunately, through my unremitting efforts, I successfully found a fourth-generation member of the Muller family, the only person who meets the provisions of Old Muller’s will and can inherit everything from him.”

After Jessenia's words fell, the buzz of shareholders suddenly sounded in the conference room. Some people doubted the authenticity of the identity of the heir she mentioned, and some people thought quickly and quickly guessed Jessenia's true purpose.

Without waiting for the shareholders to express doubts or other opinions, Jessenia clapped her hands with a smile, her voice fell, and the door of the conference room not far away was opened from the outside.

Everyone turned their attention to the door of the conference room, wanting to see what the fourth-generation heir that Jessenia said looked like... and then they saw a group of guys in suits and ties walking in.

Behind them there was a woman who was at a loss. In her arms was a little girl who was burying her head and not daring to speak.

“Good morning, Ms. Jessenia.” At the front of a group of people in suits and ties was Lacey with short hair and a heroic face, and behind her stood Michelle.

　　Taking out the FBI’s golden badge to show her identity, Lacey said expressionlessly:

“According to our investigation, Kara was kidnapped by robbers 28 hours ago and disappeared mysteriously. I would like to ask, why is she here with you now?”

Looking at the female subordinate who was holding Kara and preparing to give the shareholders a surprise, Jessenia took a deep breath and her expression remained unchanged. She had already prepared and calmly explained:

“I also know the news about Carla’s kidnapping.

For the safety of Carla's life, I worked hard to find the kidnapper who kidnapped her, negotiated terms with the kidnapper, and exchanged 5 million US dollars for Carla's life. "

The people do not punish the officials, and Jessenia’s willingness to spend her own money to replace someone certainly did not violate any federal laws.

 The only problem is that Jessenia did not notify Kara's parents immediately.

 But this point, Jesseniya can completely throw the blame to her subordinates and say that her delay in work has nothing to do with her.

 So after hearing Jessenia’s reasons, Lacey didn’t say much. She took a step back and gave up her position, and then a middle-aged white man with an unattractive appearance walked out:

“Hello, I am Elmer, the senior investigation team leader of IRS-CI (Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division). We have some matters that require your cooperation in the investigation, Ms. Jessenia.” (Chapter 193)

The other law enforcement agency Luo An chose to cooperate with was the IRS, but it was the IRS's Criminal Investigation Division.

The reason is that on the one hand, Luo An and Elmer have met and had contact before, and on the other hand, the Muller Group is a large company, and the job of the IRS Criminal Investigation Division is to investigate these people.

When the Muller Group is running smoothly, it is a bit difficult for the IRS Criminal Investigation Division to investigate them.

But now that the old Muller is dead, the Muller family is in chaos, and the Muller Group is also in chaos. This time is just right for the IRS Criminal Investigation Division to launch an investigation.

The IRS Criminal Investigation Division does not care about the specific reasons for the case. They only care about whether large companies have evaded taxes.

But how could a large enterprise like the Muller Group not make "reasonable" moves in taxation?

 Hearing Elmer’s identity, all the shareholders present changed their expressions and turned their attention to Jessenia.

Jesinia's face also darkened. She briefly glanced around the shareholders at the conference table and quickly thought about who was behind the scenes. At the same time, she quickly stood up and walked towards Elmer, saying seriously:

“I will ask my lawyer, financial advisor and the company’s financial director to cooperate with your investigation, but I still have a shareholders’ meeting to hold, so…”

Jesinia’s plan is to first identify Kara and then identify herself as Kara’s guardian, so that she still has control over the Muller Group.

But before Jessenia could finish her words, a woman who had kept her head lowered suddenly came out from behind Michelle, stared at Jessenia fiercely, and said coldly:

　　"Jacenia! I am Cara's mother, Madalyn Allen, and I accuse you of abusing Cara! I request private negotiations with you!"

The sudden appearance of Madalyn Allen startled Jessenia, but with Madalyn making a big fuss, and Elmer, Lacey and others eyeing her, today’s shareholders’ meeting It definitely couldn't go on any longer, so Jessenia had no choice but to announce the suspension of the shareholders' meeting, turned around and left the meeting room with Elmer and others.

In the conference room, all the shareholders looked at each other in confusion and looked at others with doubts, wondering who was responsible for this series of operations.

The shareholders with evil intentions briefly discussed for a while. Just as they were about to leave, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open, and a man with a bruise on his face walked in with a smile:

“Everyone, don’t leave in a hurry. Let me introduce myself. I am Carla’s father, John Rodriguez…”

At the same time, in the distance, in the interrogation room of the Special Investigation Team, Luo An showed the video surveillance to the man in front of him and smiled:

 “Look, I didn’t lie to you.”
