Chapter 426: A New Round of Struggle

Some people in Chicago have been panicking recently, and the successive brutal murders have caused the residents of the city to panic.

Rumor has it that this is a new gang of drug dealers whose origins are unknown but who will cut off the heads of anyone who opposes them.

Three officers have been killed so far, including former Sergeant Byrd.

Police is a high-risk business at any given time, especially in a country where gun ownership is legal.

There were also a lot of mobsters who got killed, and these guys were so gutsy that no one in Chicago has been this crazy since Scarface Capone was a thing of the past.

But now it happened, when one night Paul's confidant, the number two boss of the Chicago Mafia, Piper.

After being nearly killed outside a strip club, things get tricky.

"George, you have to help me find out who they are." Paul, who got the news, dialed the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.

"Listen Paul, S.H.I.E.L.D. is getting a lot of attention now. We can't be like before. This is your business, and you can solve it in your own way."

S.H.I.E.L.D. can no longer be associated with gangsters, and the cooperation between them has been terminated for a long time, when S.H.I.E.L.D. was preparing for overseas divisions.

S.H.I.E.L.D. is vying for an Army purchase order from the Department of Defense, and there can be no mistakes at this time.

Defense suppliers who are involved with gangsters, if someone finds out and exposes it, is there anything more ridiculous than this?

Hand over national security to the gangster godfather, or the boss behind him?

"I only need information, and I will take care of other things," Paul said.

"Sorry, this is the boss's decision, but I can give you a call and call him." George gave him a set of numbers.

After dialing the other party's number, Paul realized that it was the number of the FBI's Chicago branch, and the person speaking to him was the person in charge, Melvin Purvis.

Melvin and the headquarters were not happy. Director Hoover, who was used to controlling the overall situation, hated this brilliant branch leader.

He is regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.

But after Melvin got the support of several members of Congress, he turned the Chicago branch into an iron bucket.

Li Zitao is of course credited for this, otherwise, how could a senior detective get the support of members of Congress.

So after receiving a call from Paul, he told the other party the information he had.

Compared to Melvin, he hoped that the FBI would take over the case, but before he was authorized, he could only watch from the sidelines.

After being ostracized by headquarters, he can only intervene in such a case if the state government or the city government asks for assistance, which is uncomfortable.

In Chicago, Paul rushed back overnight and called all his men to meet in his maroon bar.

"My people found out that a group of Colombians want to build a North American transit station here. As for what they are selling, you know the details."

"Thank you, Melvin, I will remember this favor." Paul hung up the phone and turned to look at the subordinates in the luxury suite.

"It was the Colombians who did it. Find them and kill them." Hearing what the godfather said, everyone left the room with a low growl.

...

...

In the early morning, Li Zitao appeared in the living room in loose pajamas with a newspaper in his hand. Dan had prepared coffee for him.

"Charlie, have you watched the news?" Mary came out after brushing her hair.

After marriage, women will have some changes. The most obvious is that Mary is becoming more and more relaxed at home. In the past, she would not walk out of the room unless she was neatly dressed and put on makeup.

"Yes, I saw it." Li Zitao raised his head to ask for a kiss, but Mary lowered her head in amusement and kissed on his lips.

"En... what a pleasant morning." Li Zitao closed his eyes intoxicated and said.

"If all men could talk like you, there wouldn't be so many single men and women." Mary pointed at him with satisfaction and smiled.

"How is it possible, I don't have the ability to avatar." Put the newspaper on the table,

Li Zitao stepped forward and hugged his wife, feeling tired again.

Today she is leaving for Paris, having a family dinner with her godparents, talking about what happened in the Persian Gulf, and then enjoying the cruise with her girlfriends.

"Okay, breakfast is ready." Mary laughed and wanted to push him away. Li Zitao's occasional mischief was like lubricant in the relationship between husband and wife.

Whether it is for him or for Mary, it can make the two of them feel more relaxed and harmonious.

After breakfast, the servants were ready to salute, and the team was already waiting at the door.

"How many paparazzi are there outside?" Li Zitao asked his security supervisor, Lu Qiang.

As for his boss calling the reporter a 'paparazzi,' when he heard it for the first time, Lu Qiang agreed very much.

They are like dogs with a keen sense of smell, where there is a little trouble, nothing can escape their dog's nose.

"About 20 or so." Lu Qiang smiled.

"Looks like I'm going to wear glasses." Li Zitao took out the glasses from the Keepall bag and put them on, and Li Zitao personally sent her out.

"Look, they are here." A group of paparazzi pressed the shutter like crazy, and the bodyguards isolated them from the car.

"His Royal Highness, may I know your itinerary this time?" A reporter shouted and asked.

"A simple trip, relax, enjoy the sunshine and sea breeze, and have dinner with your family by the way." Mary said with a smile on her face.

The upward curve of the corners of the mouth is just right, it will not make people feel indifferent, and it has a somewhat unattainable distance, like a blooming iceberg snow lotus.

"Will Charlie go with you too? When do you plan to have a baby?" I don't know how many times the latter question has been asked.

"He still has a lot of important work to do. The short separation will make us miss each other even more, thank you." Li Zitao raised his head and kissed him on the face, and Li Zitao opened the car door to send her to the car, and the answer ended here.

When she is in public, she is always so noble and elegant, and she will never lose her composure.

"Have a nice trip." After the convoy arrived at the airport, Li Zitao stepped forward to say goodbye with a hug.

"Greet her for me." Mary said softly, then turned and boarded the plane.

After the Princess took off, his Gulfstream One appeared in front of him in a short while, and Li Zitao was going to see Garbo in Liberty City.

The greeting Mary just said was meant for her. He never told Mary, but she always knew.

The two women who had been most entangled with him seemed to have more frequent contact with each other than he did.

"BOSS." Ava and Tia rushed over from the club.

"Have you brought the briefing?" Li Zitao asked casually.

"It's all here." Ava raised the documents she was holding in both hands.

"Get on the plane!" Facing Lily's sweet smile, the group boarded the plane.

Flipping through the briefings for the past two days, Li Zitao remembered what happened in Chicago again, closed the document and asked, "Does anyone know how much the police are paid?"
