Chapter 1328 Destruction
Chen Jiaju and Carter are still confused.
They never expected that the action that they thought was a sure thing would suddenly take a turn for the worse.
"Yes, if you two hadn't risked your lives, attracted the attention of the gunmen, and taken great risks, locked the factory managers inside, and ensured that they would not be able to destroy Criminal evidence, things definitely didn’t go so smoothly this time.”
Seeing that the two of them didn’t understand the situation, Sir Zhang kindly reminded them of their contribution.
"It's a pity that because this arrest operation went so smoothly, the people from the Investigation Bureau didn't notice that the woman they arrested at the door, Hu Li, was also a high-level member of the criminal organization."
"But you guys Don’t worry, you are not to blame for this matter. After all, you were attracting the gunman’s attention at the time. The guys from the Investigation Bureau are also not to blame for this matter. They did not obtain Hu Li’s information before taking action.”
“It’s really important. If it's weird, it's all the fault of the rogue police officer in the Las Vegas Police Department. He knew clearly about this but didn't mention it to anyone at the time. It was obvious that he was deliberately shielding Hu Li."
Sir Zhang didn't do anything. Carter and Chen Jiaju had too many opportunities to explain, so they immediately settled everything down.
To be honest, even he himself did not expect that this arrest mission would be carried out like this.
In fact, not all the things he said were lies.
Who has the greatest credit for this operation, of course it is Hu Li.
But Hu Li was carrying the case after all, so it was naturally impossible for her to really stand up and take credit.
In addition to Hu Li, Sir Zhang’s contribution cannot be ignored, but with his current status, he does not think highly of those who have merit or not.
Besides, according to the agreement with Hu Li, there is a high probability that he can receive hundreds of millions of dollars in benefits and fees.
And because of Hu Li's status, it was difficult for Sir Zhang to share the benefits with Carter and Chen Jiaju who came to Las Vegas with him.
So Sir Zhang thought that he might as well help the two of them somewhere else.
Besides the monetary benefits, the credit for solving this case is obviously a good compensation.
Then there was the scene where Chen Jiaju accidentally discovered Hu Li.
At the beginning, Sir Zhang did not expect that Chen Jiaju and Carter would be so reckless that they walked into the factory.
To be honest, during the period when they first entered, Chen Jiaju and Carter were the most dangerous.
Because neither Zhang Pin nor Hu Li was prepared for their intrusion, but the number of people inside the factory, including the staff and gunmen, exceeded fifty.
No matter how good they are at fighting, they are still mortal bodies after all. If they really get shot, they will most likely lose their lives.
At this time, neither Sir Zhang nor Hu Li had any good solution.
Unless Zhang Sir is willing to expose his strength and this plan, break into the factory without hesitation and start a killing spree, otherwise, Carter and Chen Jiaju will have to face these risks themselves.
At this time, Sir Zhang could only choose to believe that the two of them were talented people and were bold.
The two of them did not disappoint him. The final result was a happy one. Chen Jiaju and Carter encountered certain dangers, but in the end they were almost safe.
With Hu Li taking action, their safety was instantly guaranteed.
And Hu Li also used the two of them to take risky actions to minimize the danger inside the factory.
The investigation bureau also subconsciously neglected to control Hu Li because the arrest operation went very smoothly.
Actually it's not just Huli.
Because the number of people inside the factory exceeds the twenty registered at the police station.
The Investigation Bureau originally estimated that the number of people inside might be relatively large, but they only budgeted to face around thirty enemies.
So their initial plan was to arrest thirty people.
When it was discovered that the number of enemies in the factory exceeded the original estimate, the Investigation Bureau was actually a little panicked at first.
But the fact made everyone happy, because the investigation bureau's operation was so smooth.
It was precisely because the operation went so smoothly that no one in the factory resisted, so the people in the investigation bureau were inevitably a little careless.
Because there were not enough vehicles or control equipment, after arresting the gunmen and staff in the factory, the Bureau of Investigation was fascinated by the counterfeit money inside the factory.
In addition, these people surrendered voluntarily, and the people from the Investigation Bureau thought that they really had no sense of resistance, so they did not even use handcuffs on many of the people they arrested, and just prepared to take them back with them. police station.
Who would have thought that on the way back to the police station, Hu Li suddenly got violent, grabbed the control of a police car, and then ran away with a car full of staff.
The reason why Zhang Pin specifically said this to Chen Jiaju and Carter at this moment was actually to give a confession to them.
Anyway, according to their confessions, if there had not been an accident in which Hu Li escaped with some staff members, the investigation bureau's operation would have been absolutely perfect.
Especially because when Hu Li killed Tan Ruiqi before, she shouted that she was arranged by Stephen to kill.
So originally, if Huli was willing to cooperate, the Investigation Bureau could even arrest Stephen directly.
Originally, because the operation went smoothly, the Investigation Bureau even considered following the clues and directly launching an operation against Caesars Palace Casino.
However, due to Hu Li's sudden escape in the end and the lack of preparation by the Investigation Bureau, they ultimately had no choice but to postpone their action against Caesar's Palace and choose to digest the gains from the factory first.
Even because of the escape of Hu Li and others, this operation of the Investigation Bureau can be regarded as a good harvest.
They found nearly one billion dollars in counterfeit money inside the factory.
Moreover, thirty or forty gunmen and staff were arrested at one time. Even if these people were not the core members of the criminal gang, they were still considered an important contribution to the Investigation Bureau.
If it weren’t for the failure to find the machines and electrical boards for making counterfeit banknotes, the head of the Bureau of Investigation’s Las Vegas branch would have been ready to announce that he had wiped out a criminal group.
What the other party said was really not bragging.
Criminals are different from ordinary enterprises. Due to their high risk and insufficient security guarantees, except for special triad organizations, other criminal organizations generally do not have too many personnel.
For a criminal organization like the Counterfeit Banknote Group, in fact, the real core members generally do not exceed ten people, and it is not surprising that in many cases there may only be one or two.
In fact, in the eyes of the police, these people are not even considered a criminal organization.
Because of such a small number of people, there will be no trouble at all.
Be it the police or the Bureau of Investigation, they actually pay more attention to lower-level criminals.
For example, there are a few guys who produce counterfeit banknotes. As long as they don't flow the counterfeit banknotes into the market, the police and the Bureau of Investigation will not bother to deal with them. And because of their number, they simply don’t have the ability to digest too many counterfeit banknotes.
Even if they do use the counterfeit money, the police and the Bureau of Investigation can easily find them.
At this time, if counterfeit banknotes are to be circulated on a large scale, a next-level organization is needed.
This is why those who make counterfeit money choose to cooperate with other criminal organizations.
Because only other criminal organizations have the ability to circulate counterfeit banknotes on a large scale without being held accountable.
Just like this time, after taking down the factory responsible for aging counterfeit banknotes and connecting with Caesars Palace, a factory that can consume counterfeit banknotes on a large scale, although the counterfeit banknote group behind it has not yet been wiped out, they have been able to do so in a short time. I couldn't jump up at all.
The first one is that they need to avoid the limelight and avoid being followed by the Bureau of Investigation.
The second is that they must find a suitable place to make old and counterfeit banknotes, recruit enough reliable manpower, and find a reliable enough place that can circulate counterfeit banknotes on a large scale. place.
In fact, when criminals get through these links again, they can be regarded as another criminal organization.
For the Investigation Bureau, after interrupting the factory this time, they can follow the clues and arrest some criminals based on the confessions from the interrogation.
Even if real high-level officials like Hu Li or Stephen were not caught by then, the criminal organization would have been wiped out by them.
Not to mention that the Investigation Bureau had actually arranged Isabella as an undercover agent next to Stephen.
So it is conceivable that there is a high probability that Stephen will not be able to escape.
As long as Stephen, the mastermind behind the scenes, can be dealt with, Hu Li will become dispensable.
Because they knew that they had made great contributions this time, the people at the Las Vegas branch of the Investigation Bureau were naturally very friendly towards Sir Zhang, the provider of the information.
The Investigation Bureau did not hesitate at all regarding his proposal to give Carter and Chen Jiaju a portion of the credit.
But except for Chen Jiaju and Carter, others were not so lucky.
For example, the Las Vegas police officers who were initially brought to the door by the Bureau of Investigation with evidence of their crimes had to cooperate with them to deceive the factory guards. All were given to the Las Vegas police, and the responsibility for Hu Li's escape was also placed on the other party.
The investigation bureau accused the criminal policeman of deliberately not revealing Hu Li's identity, which made them careless, allowing Hu Li to find an opportunity to escape.
Of course, this matter cannot be completely regarded as slander.
After all, if the criminal police officer really revealed Hu Li’s true identity as soon as he took control of her, the Bureau of Investigation would indeed pay more attention to Hu Li, and maybe even put her Confined in solitary confinement.
In this case, Hu Li might not be able to find a chance to escape for a while.
So the Bureau of Investigation deliberately did not disclose Hu Li's identity as a criminal police officer, so that the people in the Bureau of Investigation would regard her as an ordinary woman.
They didn't even search Hu Li's body or handcuff her to restrict her movements. They locked her in a car with some workers who didn't seem to be a threat and prepared to take her back to the police station.
As a result, Hu Li took out a pistol from her body on the way, pointed it at the driver's head and asked him to drive away from the group, and then she escaped without anyone noticing and sued the other party.
Faced with this prosecution, the criminal police officers were actually very aggrieved.
His previous statement to the factory security at the door that he had no knowledge was of course a lie.
He knew the details of this factory were dirty.
In fact, the main reason why the gunmen inside the factory were easily fooled by Hu Li into putting down their weapons with a few words after the shooting this time, and gathered together to watch a show without any sense of crisis at all, is that, This isn't the first time this has happened.
You know, if there is a real difference between the U.S. dollars produced by Ricky Tan and Stephen, and the U.S. dollars produced by the Federal Reserve, it means that everyone is different.
So to ordinary people, these money are said to be counterfeit, but in fact they are no different from real US dollars.
If ordinary people get this money, they can spend it normally. As long as the amount is not too large and attracts the attention of relevant departments, there is no need to worry about safety issues.
Even though the money has actually been circulating in the market for some time, it has naturally attracted the attention of some interested people.
However, because no problem was detected by various means, no major problem has ever occurred.
In this case, there are more than fifty people working inside the factory including security guards. Naturally, not everyone can control themselves.
In fact, when the factory was first established here, there were many incidents where workers or security guards secretly tried to steal counterfeit money out of the factory.
The person responsible for handling such matters at that time was Tan Ruiqi.
Every time he finds out about this kind of thing, he will ruthlessly enforce family laws against the offenders.
As a result, deaths often occur inside the factory, and these desperate staff and security guards will not sit still and wait for death. Shootouts and other incidents often occur.
So whether it is the police in the area or the people inside the factory, they are accustomed to gunfights.
Because more people died, the security and defense forces installed inside the factory became stronger and stronger, and the number of counterfeit currency thefts began to decrease.
Yes, just reducing the number, it is obviously impossible to truly eliminate this kind of thing.
It is precisely because of this that when Carter and Chen Jiaju sneaked in and observed the counterfeit money, the porter's first reaction was not to question their identities, but to remind them not to steal counterfeit money. Rules for going out to spend time.
Also because of the frequent gun battles, So Tan Rich also spent a lot of money to build relationships with the police stations within his jurisdiction.
Every time there was a shootout, because the incident did not involve anything other than the factory, and the dead people never caused any commotion in Las Vegas, the police department would turn a blind eye. .
But if we really say that this criminal policeman has complete knowledge of the activities inside the factory, this is indeed a bit unfair to him.
No matter how generous Tan Ruiqi and others are, they cannot tell others that they are making old and counterfeit money here.
If the police station really wanted to know about this, the price the other party wanted would definitely not be this amount.
So they were using business within the triad organization to fool the police.
The police in Las Vegas knew that this was the home of a criminal organization, and there were gunfights here from time to time. They had guessed that there might be some shady business going on here, but they really didn’t know that this was where counterfeit money was made. .
Of course, it is too late to say these things now.
As the Bureau of Investigation uncovers all this, the criminal police in Las Vegas will also usher in a purge.
This actually has a big impact on Sir Zhang.
Because as problems arise on the Las Vegas police side, Long Wu at Caesars Palace will be unable to sit still.
