by karlmaks — Motive is always the most crucial link in the judicial system. The police officer glanced at Ponda. He didn't find any issues with Ponda's demeanor or reactions. He didn't exhibit any unnatural behavior. He spoke fluently, thought when he needed to, and naturally showed embarrassment or displeasure when appropriate. At least, there were no problems during the initial review. In other words, until some of his important sensitive issues were found, he appeared very normal. So, the interrogator…

by karlmaks — "They thought... with Charlie dead, we were no longer a threat to them." Sitting behind his desk, Councilman Williams spoke, a cigarette held between his fingers. He knew why those people had initially agreed to come to tonight's gathering. It was because everyone knew that Charlie had been caught. Charlie had been doing the Bay Area's dirty work for nearly forty years. He held too many secrets related to the Bay Area. The gentlemen of the Bay Area hadn't made a move on him before purely…

by karlmaks — This was the first time for many people to enter the Golden Port Casino. In the beginning, they had no money. Forget about coming in to see the sights; they couldn't even get through the main door. All those who run casinos are not fools. Don't be fooled by the fact that the Golden Port Casino's shuttle buses are constantly soliciting customers at the port and even give out free chips to these tourists who have just arrived. These are all part of a design. In this era, people who can travel to…

Chapter 609

by karlmaks — For families with multiple children, how to reasonably distribute property is always a profound and complex subject. But as it happens, the person who gets to make the decision on this matter cannot be that rational. "Would you like to hear an interesting story?" Lance thought of a very meaningful story that was very fitting for the problem Roger was currently facing. The latter would naturally not refuse, even though he might not really want to hear it. "Of course, why not?" "There was a…

by karlmaks — Time always passes quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already November, and the weather had completely cooled down. Mayor Williams had fully taken over City Hall. The former mayor had not participated in the mayoral election, nor had he participated in the mayoral elections in other places, let alone received any nominations from the Socialist Party. To put it in plain terms, he was unemployed. Having lost the opportunity to work in the federal government, he was now just an ordinary federal…

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…

by karlmaks — In the morning, Morris hurried back from outside. He coughed a few times, his face a little flushed, but it quickly subsided. From a medical point of view, his "wound" had completely healed, but the damage done to his body would not completely heal just because the wound had. These would accompany him for the rest of his life. At first, he might not have been used to it, but now, he was. Lance had even heard that Morris would go to church with his girlfriend on the Sabbath. Some people might…

Chapter 588

by karlmaks — The ringing of the phone made Mr. Thurray shift his gaze from the news to the somewhat old-fashioned, deep red telephone. He put down the newspaper in his hand, took off his glasses, and picked up the phone. "This is the Colgan Theater Management Company. I am Thurray." Mr. Thurray was the president of the Colgan Theater Management Company, a family-owned business. Mr. Thurray's grandfather had built the first movie theater. At that time, the novelty of movies attracted many curious people,…

by karlmaks — In a corner of the venue, some people looked different from the leaders of the small gangs. They were dressed in decent, expensive clothes, and their demeanor had a more upscale and textured feel. They were from the Douglas family, one of the relatively larger gangs "left" in Golden Port City. The current leader of the Douglas family was named Fergus Douglas, omitting some middle names. The Douglas family had a sizable territory in the Bay Area, but this territory didn't truly belong to them in…

Chapter 652

by karlmaks — Mr. Charles sat behind his desk, the elbow of the hand holding the phone pressed against the tabletop to support his balance. His other hand held a cigarette, and in front of him was a cup of coffee with whiskey. His collar was slightly open, not quite befitting his status, making him look a bit... haggard. The events of the past few days had put him under pressure. An interest group is like a large tree. No matter how big its crown is, as long as the woodcutter finds its main trunk, it can be…
