Chapter 1499: McCarthy in Action

"Mr. Lee," McCarthy said, clapping his hands away.

"Not everything can be bought with money. What you did made me more sure that what I did was just."

McCarthy pulled his suit and said seriously; "We will meet again soon, and I hope you will be as relaxed and leisurely as you are now."

"Wait, McCarthy." Truman stopped him: "Charlie is leaving, and we should talk about business."

"It's better to talk about it when Mr. President is ready." After speaking, McCarthy left the office with confident steps.

boom.

The cup fell heavily on the table, and the wrinkles on Truman's face could trap a fly.

Li Zitao drank the wine and said with great benefit: "Perfect meeting, isn't it?"

"Yes." Truman drank the wine in the glass boldly and said; "I am very impressed, and I think I will never forget it in my life."

Since he became the vice president, when he was under Roosevelt, no one dared to ignore his existence so much.

Not to mention that he is now the president, and McCarthy's arrogance is deeply remembered by him.

"What are your plans?" Looking at Li Zitao, he wanted to know his friend's plan.

Based on Truman's understanding of him, he would not passively accept anything he encountered, and most of the time he would choose to take the initiative.

"Do you know when a person is most vulnerable?" Standing in front of the window and watching McCarthy going away, Li Zitao said softly: "When success is within reach and the most proud time."

On the second day after McCarthy left Washington, he arrived at the office of the 'African-American Committee'.

"My name is McCarthy, and I am the new chairman of the African-American Committee." Looking at the elite soldiers in front of him, McCarthy said sternly: "My arrival will not change anything. The only thing that will change is my unconditional support for you."

"Starting today, be confident and bold to do a good job in the investigation. No matter how deep the redism is hidden, we will find it, just like a mouse in the gutter."

"So, get to work, gentlemen, with all your enthusiasm." McCarthy's enthusiasm immediately infected everyone.

Since the establishment of the African-American Committee, the largest action has been launched.

The most rigorous and thorough investigation was launched on the Li family in New York and everyone related to him.

Including tracking, subpoenaing, monitoring and phone tapping, all conceivable methods will be used on it.

"Let the FBI cooperate with our actions." McCarthy's tone seemed to be instructing his subordinates.

But what is surprising is that the FBI did choose to cooperate and behaved more actively than the 'African-American Committee'.

"Call Charles." Knowing that the FBI was also involved in this matter, Li Zitao immediately contacted Charles Adams.

I learned from Charles that he had already talked to Jefferson, who said it had nothing to do with him.

"They seem to have plans of their own, my friend," Charles said regretfully.

In recent years, the relationship between Adams and Lee has improved greatly, and the cooperation between the two parties in the economic and political fields is beyond expectation.

It's just that this time the problem is very troublesome, and Adams is unwilling to take this muddy water, especially if there is no benefit in doing so.

"Boss, do you need to contact Wald?" Tia asked.

Li Zitao remained silent. His relationship with Walter Jefferson was not good enough for the other party to make concessions on this matter.

Of course, if he and little Mary had a different result.

"Okay, connect me." Li Zitao decided to talk to him anyway.

After Tia dialed the number and confirmed that the butler had gone to inform Wald, she handed the receiver to him.

"Hey, Charlie!" came Walter's deep voice.

Li Zitao rubbed his nose and said with a smile, "Wald, how are you doing recently?"

"Very well, I don't want to go back to New York anymore." After taking the tea from the maid, Walter signaled her to close the door.

Li Zitao agreed: "If possible, I also hope to relax in the suburban manor and ride a horse for an outing."

"I know you're in trouble." Wald offered.

"Not bad." Li Zitao said frankly, "But I think I can handle it, except that the FBI surprised me."

"Oh?" Walter asked as if surprised; "Is there something wrong?"

"I just thought we were friends, Walter." Li Zitao was testing his attitude, and also wanted to find out his thoughts.

"Charlie." Wald's tone was quite helpless, and he explained: "You must know that the FBI's duty is to maintain the stability of the Federation, and it will be there wherever it is needed."

"It is an armed institution with great power under the federal flag, not a pet dog in the yard." Wald meant that they lost control of the FBI?

Li Zitao didn't believe what he said, but it didn't seem to do Walter any good.

It's good for him to expose his weaknesses at will and slander the family's glory.

Just to deal with yourself?

Although he and the Jefferson family are not allies, the two sides have always maintained a tacit understanding that the well water will not violate the river water.

What factors broke this situation?

Li Zitao, who lacked information, could not tell whether what Walter said was true or not.

But he has a simple method to verify his guess.

"Let Melvin come here." Standing in front of the window and looking at the crowd of people under his feet, Li Zitao said expressionlessly, no one could see what he was thinking.

In just over ten minutes, Melvin arrived at the Shuanglian Building.

"Mr. Charlie." I haven't seen him for many years, but Li Zitao looks the same as before.

"Melvin, sit down." Asking him to sit down, Li Zitao picked up the crystal bottle and asked, "Have a drink."

"Thank you." Holding the wine, Melvin looked around the office.

"How is it here?" Li Zitao said casually.

Melvin looked around seriously, nodded and said; "Great, my office only has a desk and a creaking chair."

"Every time I sit on it, I wonder if it is going to fall apart." Melvin said with self-mockery.

"Are you interested in working here?" Li Zitao asked suddenly, which surprised Melvin.

"Sir, I don't understand what you mean." Melvin put down his glass, straightened his body and looked at him solemnly.

"I need your help." Li Zitao revealed his plan.

When he walked out of the office, Melvin's expression was a little heavy.

The plan Li Zitao mentioned will bring about earth-shaking changes in his life.

But he didn't refuse in the end, because for him, this might not be a bad thing.

For many years, he was suppressed and excluded in the FBI.

Maybe after leaving it, there will be a brand new world.

More importantly, doing so will make his pockets bulge.

For his own persistence and ideals, his life has always been difficult, and he has never allowed his family to enjoy a real life.

Now, too, is the time to make a change.
