United states tax collector

An hour later, David and his group walked out of the Carlton Hotel not far from Capitol Hill with gloomy faces.

"Shit, this is not normal!"

After getting in the car, Munson vented his frustration again.

Like Yuna before, this Senator named Mandel didn't know what was wrong with him. No matter how they tried to persuade him with emotion and reason, or even took out the fabricated black material, the other party didn't show any sign of compromise.

First it was Yuna and now it's Mandel. Something must have happened...

"I don't know if you have observed them carefully. Whether it's Yuna or Mandel, they are obviously afraid of the documents we have, but in the end they rejected us with desperate eyes. This is not the performance of a normal person, or perhaps a politician..."

Jerry also held his chin and expressed his opinion.

"This is indeed not the performance of a normal politician, unless... they or their families are seriously threatened by the three major groups, which can explain their appearance!"

David actually had this guess when he confronted Yuna before.

At that time, Yuna, whether in words or expressions, was filled with a sense of despair, and now Mandel is exactly the same.

Judging from their expressions, only when their families and themselves are seriously threatened will they be forced to be so resolute.

Threatening the lives and property of senators seems like a fantasy, but in the eyes of those capitalists, it seems nothing.

After all, in order to protect their own interests, they dared to kill even the president.

Now it is just threatening these senators, which can really be said to be a piece of cake.

"What, no way, that's a senator!"

Hearing that these people may be seriously threatened, Larin, who had been silent, could not sit still.

Don't look at the senators in front of them... To be precise, they are nothing in front of David, but in America, they are already the top politicians.

And among these senators, there is a high probability that there will be high-ranking officials such as the president, vice president, speaker, and secretary of state in the future.

In addition, since the group of capitalists want to threaten like this, they must be more than one or two, and they must be targeting a large number of people. If something goes wrong, can they afford the public opinion storm?

"I think it may be true as the Inspector General and Jerry said. Only in this way can we explain why Yuna and Mandel are so stubborn. In addition, don't think that senators are a big deal. Think about it. These people dared to kill even a president as prestigious as Kennedy. Now they are just threatening these senators. What are they afraid of?"

Munson supports David's point of view.

After hearing this, Larin came back to his senses.

Yes, when Kennedy was such a prestigious president, those people killed him just by saying so.

Now these are just senators, what are they afraid of?

After all, once this bill is passed, the losses caused to these capitalists may not be much weaker than the policies implemented by President Kennedy at the time.

Thinking of this, Larin quickly looked at David and said, "Inspector General, if those bastards use such disgusting means, we will be in trouble!"

David nodded, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Elvis' number.

"Inspector General David, looking for me?"

"Have you detected any small movements from the three major groups?"

"Small movements... I haven't detected anything here for the time being."

"Really? I just went to find Yuna and Mandel..."

David said that the two people might be seriously threatened.

At the same time, in an apartment not far from the CIA headquarters building, after listening to the cause and effect, beads of sweat kept falling from Elvis' forehead.

If the families of the two senators and their own personal safety were threatened, why didn't their intelligence department receive any news?

But then again, these are not important now.

The important thing is that David hit a wall twice because he didn't have this information, which is the most important thing!

Don't look at him now as the director of the intelligence department and the intelligence chief who calls the wind and rain in the whole United States.

But if David is upset, it is no exaggeration to say that he will step down in a matter of minutes.

Thinking of this, Elvis was completely panicked and hurriedly said: "Inspector General David, if it is really as you imagined, then I think it should be my fault, but please rest assured that I will find out the truth and give you an explanation!"

"As soon as possible, this matter should not be delayed for too long!"

"Don't worry, I will check it now!"

Hearing that David did not vent his anger on her because of this matter, Elvis was relieved.

After the call ended, he immediately put on his clothes and rushed to the CIA headquarters as quickly as possible. He summoned several of his capable men and first "tortured and accused" them.

Then he issued a death order to them, that is, no matter what method is used, this matter must be found out!

In this way, the CIA Intelligence Department launched the most severe and vigorous action since Elvis came to power.

Late at night, at 2 o'clock.

David was standing on the balcony of the house, looking at the sky thoughtfully.

Just then, the phone rang.

Seeing that it was Elvis calling, David picked up the phone and said calmly: "Are there any results?"

"After our investigation, one of Yuna's daughters was picked up from school this afternoon, and Mandel's son has indeed lost contact with him, so your inference is correct!"

Elvis's slightly trembling voice came from the other end of the phone.

David was not surprised to hear this, and continued to ask: "What else?"

"Because these two congressmen are on the list of distrust of the three major groups, they are treated like this, and we also learned that the three major groups are not going to give up, they even plan to implement such a trick on the senators in our camp..."

"Assholes!"

After all, Yuna and Mandel are not senators in his camp, so David can still keep his composure when the three major groups attack them, but when he heard that these guys were going to implement this trick on the senators in his camp, he got angry.

If this group of people succeeded, would he still need to pass this bill?

"So, what is your approach?"

"This..."

At the CIA headquarters, Elvis shuddered and hesitated when he heard this cold remark.

"What is this, just say what you have."

"Well, although we have found a lot of clues, according to the US Constitution, our CIA does not have the power to enforce the law within the country. Once we take action, I am afraid that someone will make a big fuss, so..."

Hearing this, David understood instantly.

What Elvis said is indeed right.

In the United States, the CIA is responsible for foreign affairs and the FBI is responsible for domestic affairs.

In other words, the CIA is only responsible for foreign intelligence and operations, and can also be responsible for some domestic intelligence, but if it involves operations, it cannot act at will.

The FBI is responsible for domestic intelligence and all operations, but it has no power to participate in foreign intelligence and operations.

No matter which side it is, they can only perform their respective duties and cannot exceed their authority without the permission of Congress or the President.

Now this operation is obviously planned by the three major groups. If the CIA dares to rescue, once the three major groups do something, the CIA will probably be accused of overstepping its authority.

"Okay, keep paying attention to this matter and don't make any more mistakes. I'll call the FBI and ask them to cooperate with this matter. You will be responsible for providing them with intelligence when the time comes!"

"That's no problem!"

Elvis finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that David was going to ask the FBI for help.

After hanging up the phone, David looked through the address book and found Gavin's number, but after dialing it, he seemed to think of something and suddenly hung up.

This matter involves a large number of people. If he calls Gavin, he will definitely ask the senior management of the FBI, and the senior management of the FBI will definitely have to discuss it again, which is too time-consuming.

It is better to call their senior management directly, so that he can personally exert pressure, which can greatly improve efficiency.

Thinking of this, David dialed Keppel's number and said, "Help me check the number of the FBI director."

"Okay, wait for me two minutes..."

"Uh, Inspector General, the FBI director was hospitalized last month due to health reasons. The current acting director is Deputy Director Yadokun. I sent you the number."

"Yadokun...Okay, that's it."

After hanging up the phone, David's face flashed with a hint of amusement. Of course, he knew Yadokun, and it is worth mentioning that this person is Gavin's boss.

In this way, this matter may be easier to talk about.

Putting away his thoughts, he picked up the phone and dialed the number Keppel sent him.

At the same time, in a residential building in Northeast Washington.

Yadokun, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a burst of urgent phone rings, but he still patiently answered the phone: "Who is it?"

"Director Yadokun, this is David from the IRS."

"David!"

Yadokun's sleepiness dissipated instantly, and he got up from the bed, but his face did become confused.

Why did Inspector General David call him in the middle of the night?

Is it because of Congress?

But as the acting director of the FBI, he has no control over Congress!

With doubts and trepidation, Yadokun asked: "Inspector General David, what can I do for you so late?"

"I'm sorry to bother you so late, Director Yadokun. It's like this. I want to give you a credit. I wonder if you are interested?"

David said slowly.

"Credit?"

Yadokun was startled, but soon, his expression became uneasy.

Although he didn't know what this so-called credit was, according to the current war between the IRS and the three major groups, it might not be a good thing.

Could it be that he wanted the FBI to arrest some people from the three major groups?

If that's the case, then he had to refuse verbally anyway.

After all, their bureau had already set the tone and policy, which was that the three major groups and the State Taxation Bureau were now in the midst of a fierce battle, so no matter what, they absolutely could not get involved at this critical juncture, so as to avoid a situation where the prisoners would suffer from the fight between the gods.

"According to the intelligence obtained by the CIA, the families of several senators were kidnapped by the 'gangsters.'"

"Not only that, this group of unknown people also intends to repeat the same trick against the families of other senators in Congress."

"This matter is the responsibility of your FBI, and considering that the victims are senators, Director Yaduokun, what do you think should be done?"

David continued.

"What, how could this happen?!"

Although Yaduokun was mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he heard this.

The gangsters kidnapped the families of senators?

What gangsters?

If you say kidnapping one or two is fine, you don't even plan to stop and attack the rest of the senators' families?

Who in America has such courage?

Wait...Why do these people kidnap the families of senators?

If they are after money, they can just kidnap the wealthy businessmen.

Rich businessmen are not only rich, but also not politicians, so they have less influence and are safer for robbers.

No, they may not be after money!

Could it be...

Yadokun seemed to have thought of something, and his expression gradually became horrified.

Now the three major groups and the IRS are fighting for the votes in the Senate. Basically, every senator has become the target of both sides.

But from the previous votes, it can be seen that the IRS has an advantage in the Senate.

Then the matter is very clear. The real purpose behind these so-called kidnappers of senators is probably to threaten the votes in the hands of these senators!

In this way, this matter should be planned by the three major groups.

If this is the case, let alone credit, this is simply a bomb, and if it is not handled properly, it will be shattered to pieces!

In just a moment, Yadokun figured out everything. He immediately replied: "This group of people actually dared to attack the senator's family. It seems that they are extremists. But then again, it is not appropriate for us FBI to deal with such people. I think we should let CTU take action!"

CTU, the abbreviation of the US Counterterrorism Bureau.

Yadokun's purpose was also very simple, to pass the blame to other departments first, so as to protect himself first!

However, he thought too simply. Since David had already found him, how could he let him stay out of it so easily?

"Director Yadokun, I don't think CTU can handle a case of this level. As a heavyweight law enforcement agency in the United States, your FBI is responsible for anti-terrorism and anti-criminal work. No one is more suitable than you to handle it!"
