1229 Fake News!
Naipi hurts, how painful can it be?
It's hard to say, because there are so many sensitive nerves in the chest, especially in women, and the external pressure on the chest causes the heart rhythm to become instantly disordered. For a moment, the woman feels that she will die here.
Her face was full of horror, because before the scream of pain could come out of her mouth, she was slapped back!
Snapped!
It was like... it was like... something sticky and complete was thrown hard on the smooth floor or the chopping board, and there seemed to be such a brief echo in the whole room!
The woman was so stunned that she forgot about the pain.
She tilted her head, her mind went blank. There was severe tinnitus in the ear that was hit, and she even felt a stream of heat flowing in her ear!
The man punched and slapped him, then returned to the table, lit a cigarette, pressed his butt against the edge of the table, and began the formal interrogation.
"Just because you don't have the money to declare taxes, and because you may have connections with money laundering groups, we can keep you in it for the rest of your life."
"But you know, this matter is not necessarily your fault. If you are willing to spend your life paying for other people's faults, then I will tell the judge how determined you are."
"And don't think that there won't be any process during this period. We will always interrogate you like this. This is the easiest."
"I have dozens of ways for you to experience them one by one. Maybe you will be interested!"
After the agent finished speaking, he paused for a moment to give the woman some time to accept and understand the information, and then asked, "Now tell me where each of the money came from and where you used it. Or to whomever.”
"We still have plenty of time!"
The half scream in the interrogation room was heard, but no one took it seriously. The particularity of the tax system gave them many things that seemed to exceed the limits of legal power.
For example, they can use the reason that "the case has not been completely concluded and needs to be kept confidential" as an excuse to not conduct public hearings and trials. No one will know what happened. People can only learn about it from newspapers or certain places after the fact, and some may not even be heard. Those whose names were blacked out were sentenced to severe sentences.
So sometimes they are very unscrupulous. Of course, there are preconditions for this. Their "opponent" cannot make things happen to the extent that the entire society pays attention to them.
A response, he doesn't have this ability!
At this time, the director of the local tax bureau had just hung up the phone. He was also smoking, looking at the dark sky outside the window, and thinking about something.
The call just now was made to him by a guy named Johnson. He knew this guy. They had met and talked with him in the upper-level meeting.
Johnson, formerly the commissioner of the Sabine City Tax Department, is now semi-retired as a consultant to the York State Department of Revenue.
Johnson called just now, hoping that he could increase the intensity of the interrogation a little bit, and hinted that a big shot was concerned about this matter. After the matter was found out, all he had to do was report it truthfully.
For someone like this, whom he had not contacted for several years, to suddenly call and tell him these things, the director was indeed a little bit embarrassed.
After dealing with Johnson, he called and asked about his relationship. From some sources, he learned that Johnson seemed to have some relationship with Lynch.
And Lynch, Mr. President's guest, a close friend of the "Shadow President" Mr. Trueman, a big capitalist, powerful, powerful, status, and very rich.
This is indeed a fucking big shot, and then he also thought of some things in it. If there is something that must be done recently, it must have something to do with the state election.
This recruit is very likely to be a key figure.
The director felt that he was a bit unlucky, but fortunately the tax system was a vertical system, and local governments had no power to interfere with their work. This also made him less afraid of whether the results of the investigation would be scary.
He didn't sleep well that night. He always felt that he would poke a big hole.
He arrived at the Federal Tax Bureau early the next morning. As soon as he entered the office, two interrogation agents brought a document.
He did not open it immediately, but tried to read something through the expressions on the faces of the two agents.
"How's it going?" He put away his briefcase and walked to the chair behind his desk to sit down. "What did you tell me?"
Two agents, you look at me and I look at you.
They struggled until about eleven o'clock in the evening, when the woman finally couldn't bear it and let go. But what she explained made them feel a little numb.
After one of them opened his mouth several times, he finally gritted his teeth and told the truth.
"According to the woman's own statement, the fifty thousand dollars was hush money given to her by Mr. Hicks, the gubernatorial candidate. The other money that was not reported on taxes was the fees she received when she was working as a recruiter."
Although he was mentally prepared, when it actually happened, the director's mind was still buzzing.
He scratched his head, his scalp itching. In fact, the temperature at this time was not high.
Looking at the report in front of him, he sighed, "I understand, don't reveal these things before the results come to an end..."
After letting his men leave, he hesitated and asked someone to check the phone number of the York State office, and then found Advisor Johnson.
As soon as the call was connected, he said very rudely, "It has something to do with Hicks. Is this what you want?"
Johnson was not annoyed or embarrassed at all, "Mr. Director, no one actually did anything. Even without us, you can still find these things."
"We're just asking you to speed up the process and expose cases that you might otherwise have concealed."
"There is no need for you to hate me or be angry with me. You have to know that when the gears of fate start turning, we are all just pawns on the chessboard!"
"By the way, I heard that your son will receive a full scholarship this year. I congratulate you in advance..."
The director's son is in the second grade of a Holy Peace Alliance school. The tuition is very expensive, so expensive that even he, the director, can hardly support it.
It took him a lot of favors to get his son into this, and the Holy Peace Academy didn't look down on the director of the regional tax bureau at all. From the beginning, he had no intention of giving his son a scholarship.
Now, Johnson's words made him understand that Johnson was not "bragging" that there was a big shot behind all this, but that there really was a big shot.
A full scholarship to Holy Peace College, no matter how it came about, meant that his son was likely to become a pre-selected candidate for Holy Peace...
This is a rare opportunity, even though he knows that this status is actually the lowest level in the Holy Harmony Society, and is only the "lower level" serving those senior members.
But is it the same nature to serve the president and the CEOs of the consortium as he does to serve the society?
Of course it’s different!
After hanging up the phone, he no longer felt any more uneasiness. He looked at the report in front of him, and then called the state office, "...I checked a case yesterday and found some problems. I don't know how to deal with them. Do you have time this afternoon?"
He knew very well that once Hicks was involved in the black money scandal, his probability of winning was almost zero!
Because it was an anonymous account, no one knew how much money was in this anonymous account, and it was also involved in some sex scandals, which is fatal for a politician!
Later, these reports were placed on the desk in Zhou's office, and the director breathed a sigh of relief.
Leave the trouble to someone else.
The federal tax system is very unique and is not governed by local governments, which ensures its neutrality in some aspects.
The state office soon received approval from the federal tax administration to investigate Hicks.
Of course, this kind of investigation is not at the level of arrest or search warrant, it is just an ordinary inquiry.
Just because someone says these things are like this, you can't just believe them. There must be evidence.
That was an anonymous account. The federation has always had a tough attitude towards anonymous accounts and refused any form of investigation. The same is true for ordinary accounts.
Protecting depositors' private information from being leaked has become a correct direction. People are very supportive of banks' actions, and politicians will not forcefully pass relevant bills in Congress in order not to lose public support.
This also makes it difficult for many investigations involving banks to proceed unless there is force majeure intervention!
Before there is a clear result, we can only investigate first.
Inquiry is also one of the methods of investigation.
Journalists and skilled women are skilled people, and they can bring cheap happiness to the people.
The happiness of skilled women is simple and direct, and so is the happiness of journalists.
For only fifty cents, you can buy a newspaper, and then watch those reporters make up nonsense and make people smile knowingly.
This kind of happiness is higher because it comes from spiritual satisfaction.
If you want to be a very successful reporter, you must master some elements, such as always keeping an eye on the forefront of the news.
If there is anything that has attracted the most attention from the public recently, it is undoubtedly the gubernatorial elections in each state.
Every day, there are countless reporters wandering around those candidates.
Hicks has just concluded a meeting with veterans. As a soldier, it is necessary for him to pay attention to the life and work issues of veterans. This is also one of his policy agendas.
He wants to pay more attention to the military group and provide them with more conveniences.
Even if no one likes this approach, at least it won't be annoying.
As soon as he returned home, he found people wearing "Federal Tax Service" uniforms waiting for him.
A few people were at the door of his house. The people on both sides chatted for a while, and then entered Hicks' home.
A little later, the fabricated news came out "Candidate Hicks was investigated by the tax authorities for suspected financial fraud"
He said it in such detail as if the reporter had seen it with his own eyes, and you could tell it was fucking fake news at a glance.
But fake news is news, and some people will like to read it!
