Chapter 1640: Being Smart

"Charlie, I believe that your people have investigated all the clues after this happened." In the small reception room, Grant said while walking around and admiring the furnishings.

"What do you want?" Li Zitao came over with whiskey and two glasses.

"What do you think I'm here for?" Grant said in a deep voice; "Blackmail you?"

"No, Grant."

Li Zitao filled the cup, walked up to him personally and handed it into his hand, saying, "You are a friend, a valuable and loyal friend, and I never let my friends go away empty-handed."

"As a friend, you don't always need to repay him." Grant patted his arm amusingly: "You should check the identity and background of the deceased."

Grant's point was obvious. Their investigation was in the wrong direction.

The clue lies with the deceased, not the other people at the party, who were fine.

Was this a conspiracy from beginning to end?

Li Zitao was not sure whether his guess was accurate. He needed to see more evidence to determine what was right and what was wrong.

"Ava." Ask Ava who was guarding the door to find Wang Kui. Li Zitao needed him to contact SHIELD and send someone to find out the details of the deceased.

"Who should I contact?" Wang Kui had contacted Eagle Eye, but the other party always came to him, and he had no way of contacting him proactively.

"Tell the intelligence room, and someone will contact you naturally." Li Zitao didn't know who he should contact. The intelligence room was Hawkeye's communication center.

After more than ten years of development, even Li Zitao doesn't know how big Eagle Eye is, how wide-ranging it is, how many employees it has, and where they are located.

All he knew was that there was an 'Eagle Eye' intelligence organization within SHIELD, and the person in charge was code-named 'Cefaros.' He didn't know the rest of the information.

Yes, he is the most famous handsome hunter in Greek mythology.

I wonder if he is like the rumored Cephalus, who has the sharpest javelin, hunting dogs that can track any prey, and a beloved wife.

Although he didn't know it, he knew that Hawkeye had never let him down.

In just half an hour, he had the information he wanted.

Charlton Earl Opsky, a Soviet immigrant, has no clear political affiliation and advocates freedom and unorganized thinking.

Her current job is to serve as room service in a motel. Before that, she had done a dozen different jobs. The only thing in common was that they didn't last long.

She had several short-term relationships, but just like her work, they ended quickly and entered another new relationship.

Hates the police because her father was killed by the police for some unfounded charges...

The message concluded with a photo of the deceased, Charlton Earl Opski, receiving an envelope from a man.

When the envelope was opened, several pictures of Franklin that Li Zitao was most familiar with were revealed.

"Peter Box." Li Zitao showed the photo to Grant, who smiled in surprise: "Your man moves very quickly, it's him..."

“But he didn’t do it.

Grant drank and said, "Julius Carter, are you familiar with this name?" "

"Coser's successor? New York City Prosecutor Julius Carter?" Being able to remember this name is also thanks to Li Zitao's photographic memory.

When Curser retired, he once mentioned this latecomer to him as "ambitious, smart and stubborn, good at looking for opportunities, lacking loyalty and credibility." ’

At that time, Li Zitao no longer needed to deliberately make friends with "little people" like the New York City Prosecutor, so he didn't care about this information.

"In the past two years, his efficiency and conviction rate have been among the best in the country, which has also earned him a lot of support and attention in the judicial community."

"What does he want?" Li Zitao didn't think that the other party took the initiative to provoke him just to make an enemy for himself.

"Prestige!" Grant said with a shrug; "Hitting you can bring him enough prestige and make people realize that he is a tough guy and has nothing to fear even when facing capitalists."

"Look, even a big capitalist like Charlie Lee can't escape legal punishment if his family commits a crime. I personally sent him to prison."

Grant smiled like a well-fed old fox, "Here, you are a big tiger, and a brave man who dares to face the tiger will of course be praised by the public."

"So, I became a dragon, and he became a hero?" Li Zitao pointed at the photo of Julius that Ava brought and said with a smile, "Did he remember to bring the dragon-slaying sword?"

"No." Grant shook his head and said; "He made one for himself." After speaking, he pointed to Charlton Earl Opski, who was holding the envelope with a happy face.

This girl was a complete tragedy. She was fooled and even lost her life in the end.

I don’t know if she spent the money before she died. If she didn’t have time to enjoy it, then she really suffered a big loss.

"Do you need me to find out who killed her?" Seeing Chu Yang's questioning look, Grant spread his hands and said, "I'm a policeman, don't doubt my professionalism."

"No, no need." Li Zitao picked up the file on the table and walked to the fireplace, throwing it in casually.

"What are you doing?" Grant looked at him curiously, as the documents were being reduced to ashes in the fire.

"They are useless." Li Zitao sat on the sofa with squinted eyes, tapping the armrest with his fingers and murmuring softly: "And he is useless."

Previously, he had been considering public image and influence. If he started directly from the New York District Attorney's Office, it would have a great negative impact on Li and give others a reason to talk.

Facts have proved that this matter was a conspiracy from beginning to end, and he also thought in the wrong direction.

Julius Carter is not a man of righteous courage, he is just a speculator looking for opportunities, unscrupulously using the little power at hand and his little cleverness.

He thought he could control the situation, but completely forgot what kind of revenge he would suffer once the truth was exposed.

"What do you want to do?" Grant looked excited.

Regarding the sanctimonious Julius Carter, neither he nor his friends around him liked this person.

Compared with those real villains, the hypocritical Julius is obviously more disgusting.

Being able to see him being unlucky was good news for Grant, and he was happy to personally bless him when he lost his job.

"I think he must have forgotten that he also has a BOSS that he needs to be responsible for." Li Zitao raised his finger and said.

New York District Attorney's Office.

Julius Carter is waiting for a report in his office. The motel murder case is the most important case he has 'encountered' so far.

But according to his deputy, Peter Box, things were not going so well for them.

If there is no conclusive evidence, the other party is likely to be found innocent and go free.
