Santa Monica, in a single-family home.
Hawke and Edward entered the living room and met the three Mexicans brought by Campos.
Campos introduced Hawke one by one: "This is Raul, this is Guti, and this is Morientes."
Hawke shook hands with them and asked with concern: "Have the family members been settled?"
Raul, the leader, said: "The arrangements are ready. Thank you for providing everything. We are very grateful."
Guti said: "Life in Los Angeles is ten times better than what we had before."
Morientes was not good at words and just smiled happily.
Hawke knew how to win people's hearts and gave Edward a look. Edward opened the bag he had brought and gave each person a card.
"This is a bearer account with a sum of money in it." When Hawke saw Raul about to speak, he raised his hand to stop him: "Not only do you want your family to have a place to live, you also need to send your children to school, establish medical records, etc. These are all If you need money, take it.”
Raul nodded and put it away.
Starting today, these three people will officially enter work.
Hawke asked Edward to give them some precautions.
The first is a concealed carry permit.
Through Erica's relationship, this aspect can be easily solved through the exam.
Next is the car.
Hawke heard from Campos about the people at Super Star School who captured girls. A car followed quietly by another car, one in the dark and one in the dark, which facilitated observation.
He planned to divide the three people into two groups, and the two cars would follow one after another, one in the dark and one in the dark.
In addition, Hawke also rented a small villa on 20th Street, and usually kept two people living there in turns. Once his residence was attacked, they came to support immediately, forming a pincer attack from inside and outside.
Edward and Raul went to another room.
Here, Hawke asked Campos: "Did Pat Kingsley find anything there?"
"Not yet." Campos said in detail: "We followed her for more than a week and found that she has a very regular life. In addition to working from Monday to Friday, she stays at home and goes to the Catholic church to attend mass on the weekends."
Hawke frowned slightly: "Kingsly has been in the industry for more than 40 years and has a relatively high status. After staying in Hollywood for such a long time, will she really not be affected by the general environment?"
Campos understood the general environment that Hawke was talking about: "We did a variety of background checks, and except for some old news from twenty or thirty years ago, we found almost nothing. Kingsley is as clean as a stone. .”
Hawke said: "Continue to investigate, continue to follow, don't alarm anyone."
Campos responded: "Okay."
Hawke remembered what he had told him last time about Guerrero's notebook and asked, "Where are those people in Carroll?"
"Still checking." Campos said quickly: "Fiona found a girl named Erin at Caltech. According to side inquiries, some people reported that she would go to Santa Monica to spend the weekend before, but she has not been going recently. Now, Fiona is still collecting information related to her.”
He paused slightly and then said: "Carol and others have not found it yet."
Hawke nodded slightly, knowing these things and there was no need to rush.
Both sides quickly left.
The three of Raul followed Hawke to a nearby parking lot, took out the two cars inside, and followed the bulletproof Mercedes.
In the car, Hawke asked Edward who was driving: "Have you explained everything?"
Edward nodded: "All told, I feel they are much more professional than me."
Hawke said: "After all, I have experienced professional training."
Edward said at this time: "Boss, you asked me to check the hospitals under the Ackerman Charitable Foundation. I have checked a lot of information. They have a medical research institution in Orange County, and they also have one in Rosalie, California. There is another one in Ojian ”
"Baja California? Mexico?" Hawke was not surprised by the answer: "Rosario, I remember, is the concentration area of Hollywood studios in Mexico."
Edward made a random guess: "They used to have Ackerman Films as a cover. Wouldn't it be more convenient to work in a concentrated area of Hollywood studios?"
Hawke said: "It's possible, you should collect more relevant information."
When the group returned to the Twitter building, Hawke found someone sitting in front of Frank's RV in the parking lot of Venice Beach.
He took out his cell phone to make a call, waited for the call, and asked: "Are you back?"
Frank said: "Yes, I came back from my trip and brought gifts for you bastards."
Hawke directly invited: "Come to the office and chat."
"Wait for me for ten minutes." Frank hung up the phone, ran into the RV, took out a few handbags, left the parking lot, crossed the street, and entered the Twitter building.
He came to the front desk, smiled at the beautiful receptionist, took out a small gift and handed it over: "This is for you."
The old employees in the company were all familiar with Frank and knew that he was a friend of the boss and a special consultant to the company. The receptionist quickly smiled and said thank you.
Frank went to the security department again and gave small gifts to security director Austin and deputy director Jerry and others. The things are not valuable, but they are thoughtful.
Frank lives in the Venice Beach parking lot and often interacts with the company's security personnel, and sometimes asks them for a little help.
He then went upstairs to Hawke's office. When he entered the door, he saw a black face. He took out a box and handed it over: "This is for you."
Edward took it and said, "You have some conscience."
Frank said deliberately: "Cotton growing tools."
Edward's face was already a little dark, so he quickly opened the box and found a very beautiful pebble inside.
Frank was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so he added: "Look at the flowers floating on the rocks, do they look like cotton?"
Without turning his head, Edward raised his middle finger directly at him.
Frank came to the desk and gave Hawke another gift box.
"Thank you." Hawke opened it, and there was also a pebble inside.
"This was picked up from a place 1,500 miles away." Frank explained: "As you all know, I am a poor man with only a little cash on me. I can't afford expensive gifts. I can only pick up some natural gifts from nature and give them to them." You.”
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Hawke placed the smooth pebbles on his desk and said, "It's beautiful."
Edward said angrily: "If you really don't have anything to bring, you can bring your ex-wives over."
Frank sneered: "They will tear you apart and eat you alive."
Hawke then turned to the topic: "How many decades have you worked in Hollywood?"
Mentioning this, Frank was quite proud, and immediately went online: "It has been more than 40 years, and it has been nearly 30 years to become a well-known figure. You know Don Simpson who promoted Jerry Bruckheimer Right? I can’t compare to him in terms of fame, but in terms of qualifications, Don Simpson is behind him.”
"I've heard of it." Hawke followed his words and said: "Don Simpson's most famous works, "Break Dance," "Top Gun," and "The Island" are all very beautiful. He seemed to have died of a drug overdose."
Frank sighed: "So, if you stay in Hollywood for a long time, you will always get some bad habits, and no one is exception."
Hawke took the opportunity to ask: "Where is Pat Kingsley? I remember that she was already representing Tom Cruise's business at that time, and Cruise was working with Don Simpson. Wouldn't Kingsley accompany her to have fun?"< br>
Frank was surprised at first: "Why did you turn to this old woman?" Then he figured it out: "You had a problem with Kingsley?"
Hawke waved his hand: "We can't negotiate during the holidays. We took over a business related to Kingsley. Someone wants to shut her up for a while."
Frank understood it immediately: "Tom Cruise, right? I follow entertainment news. Ever since the Oscars, Cruise has been smeared in the media. It looks like the work of a professional publicist. He also had an affair with Kingsley There was a falling out, it was obvious.”
Hawke said directly: "It seems that you know Kingsley better. Is there anything worth saying?"
"If you ask other people, they definitely don't know." The king further improved his personality: "A seemingly decent person like Kingsley has been in Hollywood for decades, is affected by the general environment, and has her own hobbies, but Most people don’t know, only people like me who have climbed to the top know something about it.”
Hawke didn't speak, and stared at Frank eagerly like a qualified listener.
King Bi did not disappoint: "I heard someone say before that Kingsley goes to church for mass every weekend, and she goes to a Catholic church."
When Edward heard this, he saw Frank stopped talking and his eyes widened: "That's it? We found it too!"
Frank smiled contemptuously at the black handsome man, as if the two sides were not on the same level at all.
Hawke was confused at first, but then thought of something again and asked: "Catholic? Little boys?"
Frank said: "That is the favorite of the priests, and it is also the favorite of a certain type of people. If you don't see it for a while, you will feel sleepy and sleepless."
Edward was somewhat surprised: "A 70-year-old lady is old enough to be a grandmother."
"You have dealt with Hollywood more than once and have experienced many things." Frank asked: "Do you think age is a problem for the perverts in Hollywood?"
These words reminded Hawke of Wallglen and Redford. The latter is in his 60s, but he still looks like a bear?
There is nothing unusual about the positions of men and women being reversed.
Most importantly, Catholicism is involved.
The affair between the priest and the boys continues from the Middle Ages to modern society.
Hawke asked one more question: "Is this reliable?"
Frank said: "It was definitely reliable before, but now I'm not sure. I've been away from the inner circle of Hollywood for a long time. These are all news from a long time ago."
He gave an idea: "It's very simple to verify. Find someone to check. If Kingsley goes to a Catholic church every once in a while, then she probably still maintains her previous habits."
Hawke had heard Campos mention it before, saying, "She still goes to the Catholic church."
Frank said: "Let your people follow her and investigate."
Hawke took a note and prepared to contact Campos later.
Edward suddenly asked Frank: "You have been in Hollywood for many years. What kind of disease have you contracted? It can't be similar?"
"Don't put me together with those perverts!" Frank said with a serious face: "I have contracted a strange disease, the same strange disease as Elizabeth Taylor, marriage restlessness."
He was obviously not joking: "When I meet a woman I like, I can't wait to marry her, and then... it ends miserably." (End of Chapter)
