Chapter 140: The net is closed, and a big earthquake is coming
In the center of Chengdong District, in front of a law firm.
Nissen parked in the parking space, and then the three of them walked down and entered one after another.
"Hello gentlemen, do you have an appointment?"
As soon as we entered the door, a female receptionist came up to us and asked.
"Let's just take a look, don't worry about us!"
David replied, and took Nissenbaki and the two to a rest area to sit down, and his eyes were on At the elevator entrance.
About twenty minutes passed.
The elevator dinged and opened, and a group of people walked out of it one after another, and one of them, a man in a suit with a big beard, immediately caught David's attention.
[Name: Beecher Rebic. 】
[Occupation: Deputy Mayor of Sparks. 】
[Income: monthly legal income of 17,200 US dollars, illegal income of 1.12 million US dollars. 】
[Income details: On December 5, he accepted a bribe from Adelaide and made a profit of 200,000 US dollars. On December 9, he accepted a bribe from Benson Company in this city and made a profit of 300,000 US dollars. December 23rd...]
[Amount of tax payable: US$443,520. 】
“No one in this group of people can be clean...”
After reviewing the deputy mayor's information, David couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
But this is just right!
If this guy wasn't greedy, it would really take a lot of effort to get him.
Since he is greedy, not only is it easy to operate, but he will not feel any guilt when he does it!
David stood up, came to a receptionist, and said to her: "I want to meet Attorney Heisenberg!"
According to the information from Goldfinger just now, this lawyer named Heisenberg is the person responsible for laundering the money for the deputy mayor.
“Do you have an appointment?”
David took out his tax badge: “It’s from the IRS!”
Hearing that it was from the IRS, the receptionist didn’t dare Without any more nonsense, he quickly turned around and made a phone call to inform.
About two minutes later, she came back and said: "Three gentlemen, you can go to the fourth floor now. Someone will take you to see Lawyer Heisenberg!"
David immediately came to the elevator, pressed the button and walked in, and soon reached the fourth floor.
“Three gentlemen, please follow me!”
A person with a work badge at the door was already here, leading David and the other two through the hall. , came to an office door, reached out and knocked.
After getting the word 'please come in' inside, he opened the door, let David and the other three walk in, and then closed the door.
“Three gentlemen from the IRS, how can I help you?”
[Name: Heisenberg Ritchie. 】
[Occupation: Lawyer. 】
[Income: monthly legal income of 60,000 US dollars, illegal income of 230,000 US dollars. 】
[Income details: On December 5, he helped Vice Mayor Beecher launder money and made a profit of US$30,000. On December 6, he helped members of the local position gang launder money and made a profit of US$50,000. December 9th...]
[More details:...]
[Tax payable: US$75,900. 】
David sat across from the lawyer and asked meaningfully: "Did Vice Mayor Beecher come to see you just now?"
Heisenberg's pupils were tiny. Zha shrank, then pretended to be nonchalant and replied: "Yes, Deputy Mayor Beecher encountered some legal problems. He just came to me for consultation."
"The law you mentioned "The question, is it money laundering?"
Heisenberg's heart trembled when he heard this, but he was a "battle-hardened" barrister, and his psychological quality was still good. De denied innocently: "Money laundering is illegal. How can we, as lawyers, participate in such an activity?"
"On December 5, Vice Mayor Beecher brought you 310,000 US dollars in cash. You contacted a foreign trade businessman and used the balance of international foreign trade to launder the money. In the end, you obtained 30,000 US dollars. "On December 6, you helped a key member of the Short Position Gang to use the stock market to clear out 450,000 US dollars. In the end, you received a profit of 50,000 US dollars."
< br>"And on December 9th, it was still Deputy Mayor Beecher. This time you helped him launder 400,000, using cryptocurrency. How about it? Do you want me to continue?"
After saying that, David looked at him with sharp eyes.
"How could you...how could...I..."
Heisenberg, who was originally calm, suddenly became confused after hearing David detail the activities he had done during this period. He stumbled for a long time, unable to speak a complete sentence. Come.
As a lawyer, he thought he had done this kind of thing covertly, but he never expected that he would be discovered by the IRS.
And what made him feel most outrageous was.
What the IRS has discovered now is not one of his transactions. David directly pointed out three of them, but looking at David's appearance, it seems that he has grasped more.
“It’s mine, don’t worry, just do as I ask and I won’t do anything to you!”
Hearing this, Heisenberg reacted suddenly.
Yes, it’s not the FBI that’s coming to our door now, but the IRS.
The IRS is only responsible for collecting taxes, and they only want tax dollars.
As long as I hand it over, isn’t that the end of it?
“Okay, okay, I know the black tax bill of your IRS. How much do you want to charge, can I give it to you?”
I have to say that Heisenberg is very knowledgeable.
After all, as a lawyer, he knew very well that since the IRS had such information about him, it was useless to quibble.
If you continue to quibble, you might be punished even more severely!
It’s better to spend some money to eliminate the disaster.
David was quite satisfied with the other party's understanding. He said, "We have to collect taxes, but we also need you to provide some things and help!"
"Provide what?"
"Provide you with relevant materials related to money laundering for Deputy Mayor Beecher, and testify against him in court when the time comes!"
"What!"
Heisenberg was startled, shook his head like a rattle and said: "No, no, if I testify against him, wouldn't that drag me into the water?"
"Don't worry, this is our fault. The IRS is trying it in its own court. As long as you provide information and testify against him, I guarantee that you will be fine!”
Hearing this, Heisenberg suddenly came back to his senses.
If he was to testify against Beecher, of course he would be afraid that the other party would bite him and drag him into the water.
But if it is in the IRS court... then as long as the IRS is not sincere about messing with him, then it seems that no matter how hard Beecher bites him, it will be useless.
Because the IRS court is not a court under the jurisdiction of the judicial system, where everyone knows that the IRS has the final say in everything!
After thinking about this, Heisenberg's concerns have been reduced by most, but he is still a little confused, and then asked: "Deputy Mayor Beecher earns a lot of illegal income every month, does your IRS retain him?" Isn’t it more valuable to keep him than to fuck him?”
"You don't need to worry about this anymore. You just need to do what I say!"
Of course David didn't have time to explain to him the conflict between the IRS and the governor.
“That’s...okay!”
Twenty minutes later, David and the other three walked out of the lawyer’s office, got in the car, and immediately dialed Richards’ number. .
“We are ready to close the network. Are the media ready?”
Chengxi IRS, Richards' face turned after hearing this, and then replied: "You are ready, what should you do?"
"It's very simple, hold a press conference and announce it to the media. Dredd and Beecher are suspected of tax evasion, and as public officials, they know the law and are extremely evil. An arrest warrant is issued immediately!"
"Tax Commissioner David, one of these two is the deputy mayor, One is the city police chief. Are you sure that such an announcement will cause a major earthquake? "I will come to your bureau now. Please tell your chief about this briefly!"
Previously, David was afraid of alerting the police and causing dissatisfaction with the inspector from the Chengxi Branch, so he did not dare to go directly to the door.
Now, not only have they been given a copy of their tax records, but they have also obtained evidence of tax evasion and crime on Adelaide and Beecher, so of course they no longer have these scruples.
"Okay, I'll report it right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Richards immediately rushed to the door of the director's office, knocked on the door and walked in, saying: "Director , I have something to report to you!”
“What is it?”
“The thing is like this, the two directors before were not actually handled by our inspection team, but It was David from Las Vegas who came over to help me get it done..."
"What! David from Las Vegas?"
Before Richards could finish speaking, Hopkinson interrupted in surprise.
He said it was no wonder that Richards’ inspection team suddenly became so powerful. It turned out to be David who did it!
"Yes, and not only that, he is planning to punish our Deputy Mayor Beecher and Chief Adelaide, to the point of death and ruin..."
“What!”
As soon as these words came out, Hopkinson was even more shocked than before, and his eyes were as big as bells.
Richards explained: “Didn’t the state government give instructions to the city hall, ordering them to crack down hard? David’s move probably also wanted to scare the city hall and stop them from continuing to do this to harm our IRS. It’s a matter of profit!”
Now Hopkinson understood, and then asked with a little confusion: “What did you mean when you said you wanted to kill Adelaide and Beecher? ?”
“According to David’s instructions, he is going to hold a media conference to announce that Beecher and Adelaide are suspected of tax evasion, and because they are public officials, the crime is aggravated and the nature is extremely bad. Be prepared to arrest immediately!"
"This..."
Listening to these words, Hopkinson was severely shocked again. If David had done this, it would indeed be considered to be fatal.
And if this is really done, it will definitely be regarded as a major earthquake for the entire city of Sparks!
“Is he so sure?”
If this matter is really solved, it will be great to successfully win Adelaide and Beecher, and it will definitely make the City Hall The crackdown has been eased.
But if they fail to win, then their Chengxi Branch will be pushed to the forefront. By then, it will be considered a small thing for him, the branch director, to resign.
If not done well, it will seriously affect the reputation and image of the IRS.
After all, even though your IRS is powerful, you can't just slander a deputy mayor and director indiscriminately, right?
Richards replied: "Since he can handle the two previous sub-chiefs, he is somewhat confident. Forget it, he is already here, and he will know soon..."< br>
Hopkinson thought the same thing.
Forget it, just wait until he comes and listen again!
Half an hour later.
David and his team arrived at the IRS in the west of the city, and were then taken directly to Hopkinson's office by an auditor who had been arranged in advance.
"Commissioner David, I have long admired your name!"
"Hello, Director Hopkinson!"
After the two shook hands, David took the lead The file bag that came up was placed on the table. Hopkinson didn't waste any words and immediately opened it and looked at it.
As the content gradually came into view, his expression changed from indifferent, surprised, to unbelievable.
Here, there are not only the account books of Adelaide accepting bribes, but also detailed evidence such as vouchers and accounts of Beecher's large money laundering transactions.
With these, they can indeed kill these two people!
Hopkinson tried hard to suppress his shock and asked puzzledly: "How did you get these things?"
"It doesn't matter how you got it, I did it before I believe Commissioner Richards has given you a rough idea of what to say to Director Hopkinson. What do you think?”
Hopkinson held his chin and thought for a minute, then replied: "If you want to do this, then we can cooperate, but the taxes involved in the case..."
"It's all yours. I don’t want any money!”
“Is this true?”
The eyes of Hopkinson and Richards became extremely hot.
According to the above evidence, Beecher alone needs to pay a tax of 440,000, and the Adelaide Commissioner also needs to pay a tax of more than 300,000. In total, But it’s a tax of more than 700,000!
Sparks is a small city, and for the black tax performance of their western branch in an assessment period, it would be good to receive 1 million.
Now that the two Beechers have been taken care of, the price is as high as more than 700,000, plus the more than 300,000 from the two previous directors, this has seriously exceeded the KPI for this assessment period!
“Of course it’s true.”
The tax performance of more than 700,000 yuan is not to say that David doesn’t like it, but in order to drive the west branch of the city to speed up the pace and follow his It doesn't matter if the instructions are given directly to them.
"Okay, Richards, you immediately follow the arrangements of Chief David!"
After getting David's confirmation, Hopkinson would not write any more ink.
After all this was done, not only could he get a huge amount of tax money, but he could also shock the city hall, which might allow them to end their crackdown and return the black tax revenue to normal. state!
“Yes!”
Not long after, some local media in Sparks were invited to the first-floor lobby of the Internal Revenue Service in the west of the city.
“What happened, and what is the IRS going to do?”
"I don't know. I heard there is big news about this city."
"Big news about this city? Could it be that a well-known figure is suspected of tax evasion and will be publicly sanctioned by the IRS?"< br>
The invited media didn’t know what was going on and were talking about it in confusion.
At this moment, Richards came over with a group of people, and then he came to the stage himself, pressed his hands down, and said: "Hello, friends from the media, I am Richards, the tax director of this bureau, and I am now going to publicly report the two tax evaders in this city!”
As soon as they heard this, the media at the scene became agitated, and the local people were watching. Some citizens on the live broadcast were also upset.
Because the IRS rarely reports in this way, and now it actually reports live in front of so many media, the identities of these two tax evaders must not be simple!
“Okay, the first person is the city’s police chief Adelaide. As a public official, he knew that our American Congress had passed the black tax bill, and he actually chose to conceal the tax amount. , extremely bad in nature!”
As soon as Adelaide’s name came out, the media personnel at the scene and the citizens watching the live broadcast were shocked.
They asked, who could make the IRS report live like this? It turned out to be the city’s police chief!
But what shocked them even more was yet to come.
"As for the second person, he is Beecher, the deputy mayor of our city. As a public official, he also chose to conceal his tax return, and his nature is also extremely bad!"
Accompanied by Richard As soon as Zi's words fell, roaring discussion broke out again.
Immediately afterwards, a reporter immediately asked: "Tax Commissioner Richards, does your IRS have substantive evidence for this?"
"Of course!"
Richards pointed to David in the crowd below and said: "With the cooperation of Tax Chief David of the Lake Las Vegas District Branch, we have obtained absolute evidence of tax evasion by these two people. After the announcement, , our people will go to arrest these two people immediately!”
All the media looked in the direction of Richards and saw David.
Due to the sensation caused by the armed deployment some time ago, many media personnel at the scene knew David. Many media personnel were shocked when they saw him appearing here.
David's face did not look strange when his name was called at this time, because this was what he asked for.
Although he doesn't like being in the spotlight, there is nothing he can do about it.
First of all, even if Beecher and Adelaide were taken down by the IRS, it would only surprise the city halls here and other cities at most.
They don't necessarily have to be too scared. In the worst case, they should be more cautious.
Only by appearing in his name can these people be intimidated!
Meanwhile, the Sparks Police Department.
Adelaide has returned to the office from his inspection outside and is processing some relevant documents.
At this time, one of his police sergeants rushed in without even knocking on the door, and said loudly: "It's not good, Chief, the IRS, the IRS said... Want..."
Adelaide raised her head and said impatiently: "What's wrong with the IRS? What does it want again?"
