by karlmaks — With a clang, the office door was shoved open. Behind the desk, Chief Bruce put down his work and looked up at Charlie walking in from outside. His secretary stood by the door, a look of helplessness and grievance on her face. "I told him..." Before she could finish, Chief Bruce waved his hand. "Bring a cup of coffee, and close the door on your way out." The secretary bowed slightly and closed the door. Chief Bruce motioned for Charlie to sit. "You should have called me first and come over when I…

Chapter 531

by karlmaks — The sudden "arrest" and the cold muzzle of the gun pressed against his forehead left the chief of the Creek Valley precinct drenched in sweat. His two subordinates had just stood up before they were disarmed. The clerk did not scream. In this era, if you hadn't experienced a few armed robberies—whether it was a gang robbing you or a patrol officer passing by looking for some pocket money—it would be abnormal. Being robbed, watching others being robbed—this was something everyone at the…

Chapter 530

by karlmaks — Half an hour later, Dean met Lance at a small wooden cabin by Angel Lake. He had actually only been in Golden Port for a little over two weeks. The state government had been thinking about investigating corruption in the Golden Port police force since the second half of last year. But ideas are often just ideas, especially in government agencies. Turning an idea into reality is not an easy task, and it also involves the issue of Golden Port's transfer of benefits to the state and even to…

Chapter 529

by karlmaks — Making friends, in fact, is not simple at all. If a beggar wants to befriend a prince, it is highly likely that the prince will feel that the beggar is insulting him and will order his guards to kill the beggar. For people to become friends, they need an equal relationship. This is not to say that both parties should ignore their background, status, or other things, but that their "value" should be roughly the same. If a local gang leader came to give a solid gold baseball bat to the Attorney…

by karlmaks — The mayor was in a good mood now. He was flipping through the newspaper in his hands, but his attention was clearly not on it. From time to time, he would raise his head to look at the clock, as if something related to time was firmly holding his attention. Seeing that the time was already 3:20, the mayor folded the newspaper in his hands and placed it on the table beside him. "Speaking of which, that... what's-his-name... should have already arrived at the police station, right?" The secretary…

Chapter 527

by karlmaks — After Charlie emerged from City Hall, several plainclothes "candidate chiefs" in the parking lot immediately dropped their cigarettes and stood up straight. Faced with these scorching gazes, Charlie savored the moment. This was why he was willing to accept a clearly insulting nickname like "Hound" and fight his way to the top. If you have never been trampled on by others, you will never understand the joy and satisfaction of trampling on them. He nodded slightly. "Alright, I don't know who the…

Chapter 526

by karlmaks — The call between Charlie and Bandy didn't last long before it ended. They both had their own important matters to attend to and no time for a lengthy chat. Neither of them discussed the idea of asking the big shots for help, because they both knew it was impossible. If their opponent were someone like the mayor, then they could call for aid, as it was indeed not something they could handle on their own. Just like Councilman Williams, who brought in Senator Cleveland, and all of the mayor's schemes…

by karlmaks — "...The mad prime minister of Dantra and their mad soldiers are destroying the order of the entire world. They are heading into the abyss of destruction!" "Before they go completely mad, we should stop them together. This is not just our problem; it also concerns the security of the entire world!" "Although we currently have a certain advantage in the war, that is because we gained a first-mover advantage by attacking without a declaration of war. Now, these advantages are disappearing." "And as…

by karlmaks — The second hand ticked and ticked, constantly running in circles. No matter how many laps it ran, or for how long, it could never escape its confines. Day after day, year after year. Whenever you looked up at it, it was moving. If you had to say who the most diligent person in this office was, it would have to be the second hands, big and small. Although Nate knew this, knew that the second hand wouldn't disappear just because he didn't look at it for a while, he still couldn't help but look up…

Chapter 523

by karlmaks — Since seeing the newspaper this morning, the mayor hadn't touched the other half of his breakfast. He just sat dumbly in his dining room chair, gazing at the blue sky and the distant horizon outside the living room's floor-to-ceiling windows. He had remained this way for a considerable time, perhaps almost an hour. The secretary felt he was thinking or something and did not disturb him. It wasn't until nearly nine o'clock that a sigh was heard. The mayor finally moved his body and left the dining…
