Chapter 1641: Too Smart

Although this was the best result for him, it did not completely liven up a huge capital empire like Li's, but it also earned him enough respect and awe.

But he still wanted to take a gamble and see if he was lucky enough.

If he could nail down the evidence against Aiden Bran and turn the situation against him, and then sell a favor to Charlie Lee, his future political career would be smooth sailing.

The District Attorney's Office will only become his starting point, and the governor will only be a stepping stone to success, and he will point directly to...

Bang, the door was suddenly pushed open and hit the wall hard.

"Julius Carter, you are under arrest."

The investigator from the Office of the Attorney General of the Ministry of Justice held the certificate and said seriously: "You are suspected of obstructing justice and fabricating evidence..."

Just as Julius Carter was about to argue, two staff members came forward and cuffed him.

And he also saw the dejected deputy prosecutor, Peter Box, who was also arrested, standing outside the office door.

Julius opened his mouth, but swallowed back all the words he wanted to say, and finally concluded his political career with "I need a lawyer."

What awaits him next is more than 15 years in prison, and perhaps he himself will become a classic case in law schools and the judiciary.

It’s just that these cases will all be negative.

Aiden's trial did not end there, but because there was such a big scandal, Li Zitao kindly told the Attorney General's Office that he would not report the matter in a big way.

In return, the District Attorney's Office voluntarily dismissed the criminal prosecution and dismissed the judge with the excuse of "insufficient evidence."

The most dissatisfied is naturally Judge Bandru. Because of this case, his authority has been questioned and his status has been shaken.

It hasn't become a laughing stock yet, but it looks like it will now.

The District Attorney's Office is simply making fun of his job. They'd better be careful in the coming days, 'cause they've got their sights on them. ’

Naturally, the Procuratorate has to bear the consequences of this. They have an idiot boss who is good at opportunism, overestimates his own capabilities, and is not good at wiping his butt.

Even small people have great abilities. A small city prosecutor dared to twirl his beard and wanted to use the heirs of the Lee family as his political capital and stepping stone.

This incident reminded Li Zitao that sometimes the more inconspicuous pebbles can pose a greater threat.

If it weren't for the fact that Julius's purpose this time was not simply to discredit the Lee family, but to use it to establish his authority, the pseudonym Aiden Brann would not have been used until now.

The other party wants to release Aiden Bran at the right time, which is to say, Aiden Lee disappears, so that his interests can be maximized and he can gain enough political capital.

At that time, regardless of whether Aiden has done it or not, he will be affected by this incident.

In the end, no matter whether the case is acquitted or the District Attorney's Office abandons the lawsuit, the public that hates capital and the rich will only regard it as another "ugly privilege" incident.

This incident may even shake Aiden's status as heir, and Li Zitao must remind him to be more vigilant.

Also, he refused the request of bodyguards to accompany him publicly. Should he reconsider it?

"I don't have to go back to New York to report to the court anymore, right?" After learning that the case had been withdrawn, Aiden growled excitedly and pumped his fist forward vigorously.

He was happy for himself, and it felt uncomfortable to feel misinterpreted and wronged for doing good deeds.

"Yes, the district prosecutor has officially withdrawn the case, and the lawyers will handle the subsequent procedures for you." Li Zitao was also happy and hoped that this incident would not have any impact on him.

"How did you do it?" After the excitement, he asked

Aiden looked at him and asked curiously; "Why did they suddenly withdraw the lawsuit?"

After saying that, his eyes looked a little strange, as if he was guessing there was some conspiracy or deal involved.

"Do you think I used some connections?" Li Zitao saw his thoughts and said amusedly: "I didn't do that, Aiden, I believe you are innocent from beginning to end."

"What's the reason?" Aiden was still a little unsure, because after the District Attorney's Office had no reason to prosecute him, it dropped the case for no reason.

This is not a good thing for the New York District Attorney's Office, and it may even cause people's trust in prosecutors and the judiciary.

"This is what happened..." Li Zitao roughly told what happened, and then said, "So, you didn't do anything wrong, and I hope it won't affect you."

Aiden leaned back in his chair and did not answer. Li Zitao asked, "Is there any?"

"It does affect me." Aiden admitted bluntly, "But it will pass. It won't change anything. If it happens again, I will do it again."

Watching a man die in front of him, and he just stood there and did nothing, Aiden asked himself countless times, could he stand by and watch?

The answer is; he can't.

Even if doing so means trouble or even a trap, he will still do it.

"Very good, you are a strong young man, and I am proud of you." Li Zitao looked at him with pride.

However, the atmosphere between the two soon became tense again, because Li Zitao once again suggested that he be accompanied by casual bodyguards.

"If there were bodyguards by his side, instead of letting them stay a few hundred meters away and watch from a distance before the danger happened, Julius would have no chance at all."

Li Zitao said excitedly. He didn't understand why Aiden was so stubborn. Is there anything more important than his safety?

"I won't agree." Aiden insisted, "Even if I have to take a lot of risks, I'm still willing to live a normal life."

"Do you know what it means to have them around?"

Aiden said with a serious face; "Without friends, no social interaction, people's strange looks and comments, he is like a monster."

"I don't want to live like that anymore. If they dare to show up in front of me, prepare ice packs and stretchers for them."

Aiden stood up with strength on the armrest, turned around and walked quickly to the door.

"Damn it." Looking at the slowly closing door, Li Zitao cursed helplessly and funny in a low voice. This boy's stubbornness was very much like his own.

This is not a time to be proud. Since he doesn't agree with his proposal, he can only make it difficult for SHIELD to come up with a reliable plan to prevent the same thing from happening again.

I hope SHIELD can provide a suitable solution to solve this matter, who makes Aiden his son, the heir of the Lee family, and their future BOSS.

He has enough qualifications to be willful, but the special guards of SHIELD do not. The reality is always so cruel and helpless.
