Chapter 2476
The ex-husband called Senator Langdon again and said he wanted to ask for advice on environmental renovation.
If Senator Langdon hadn't made that call with Lynch and didn't know that his ex-husband was actually a treacherous little liar, maybe he would have gone.
But now that he had business to attend to, he would not go there by himself. He arranged for a staff member.
As business owners and capitalists, when applying for technical help from Congress, the relevant committees cannot refuse without justifiable reasons.
And this is also a "official matter", a work matter.
The place they agreed on was in a park. When the ex-husband saw that the person coming was a person he didn't know, he immediately realized that Senator Langdon had probably seen through his little scheme.
This made him a little embarrassed and resentful. He felt that he was... looked down upon.
But now that the bullet was loaded, there was no reason to stop at this time, and he was very enthusiastic about the staff member sent by Senator Langdon.
The enthusiasm was a little too much, and he even put his arm around the other person's shoulders, and seemed to be whispering to the other person's... sensitive and even timid behavior.
At this time, not far away, two cameras were taking photos, capturing the two people's appearance of being very close.
At the same time, in the parking lot, someone opened the trunk of the vehicle driven by the staff and put two bags full of cash inside.
There are also people here taking photos from a distance, and even taking photos of license plate numbers and so on.
The discussion in the park ended quickly. There are various mature plans for sewage renovation. As long as you submit your needs to the relevant companies, they will be able to provide excellent solutions.
The purpose of my ex-husband's doing this, to put it bluntly, is to create a game.
Although Senator Langdon didn't come, it wasn't a big problem.
As a briber, his testimony also had great legal effect, especially after he put his hand on the Bible and swore he would not lie!
As long as he insists that the money is for Senator Langdon, then Senator Langdon must prove that it is a misunderstanding or a frame-up if he wants to deny it.
But even if he provides evidence, he cannot clear his name. For example, his ex-husband only needs to say that the cash he provided as evidence was not the cash he provided.
Sometimes justice does not necessarily focus entirely on evidence. As long as you cheat at the right time, justice can be delayed.
After settling what seemed to the staff to be inconsequential matters, he returned to the parking lot and drove away.
The camera kept filming frantically throughout the process, taking pictures of his face and his license plate number.
If such "evidence" is obtained by the case-handling agency, it will definitely be invalid, but if it is provided by the "plaintiff" or "defendant", it is valid.
He arranged for people to watch the car and returned to the Capitol. Then he used a phone that could be recorded to dial Senator Langdon's phone number.
This time, he did not directly identify himself, but he knew that Senator Langdon could recognize his own voice from their contacts in the past few days.
"Mr. Senator, do you still like my gift?"
After hearing this, Senator Langdon was a little confused, "A gift?"
"Did you give me anything?"
"I'm not sure what gift you're talking about, and I didn't receive any."
The ex-husband laughed, "Because you didn't come because you had something to do, so I asked the guy you sent to bring the things back and put them in the trunk."
"If you are not satisfied with this number, you can contact me and I will find a way to get you some more."
"I'll leave it to you to deal with the pollution in my factory."
"I won't disturb your work, see you later."
He hung up the phone without waiting for Senator Langdon to speak.
Okay, we have the recording. Although this recording cannot directly confirm the fact that Senator Langdon asked for and accepted bribes, it is enough for the ex-husband to file a lawsuit with Senator Langdon.
For politicians, once they are questioned about accepting bribes and it creates a wave of public opinion in society, they really don't do that.
Their reputation and authority will also be severely damaged. If Senator Landon does not plan to end his political career so early, he will have fewer options.
On the other side, Senator Langdon frowned after hanging up the phone. He called the staff over and talked with him about what happened between him and his ex-husband.
Then he took him to the garage of the Capitol Building.
The Capitol Garage is not an underground garage, and no one would have thought two decades ago that one day Bu Payne would have no place to park.
When people renovated the Capitol Building more than a hundred years ago, they never thought that one day cars would be able to roam the streets.
The conservative planning that treats the development of the times means that there are not many underground parking spaces here, but fortunately there is an open space next to the Capitol and they built a seven-story parking lot.
In the building opposite the parking lot, there are still several cameras pointing at the car in the parking lot.
Soon Senator Langdon and his men showed up at the garage, and they opened the trunk and discovered the banknotes inside.
However, due to the angle, the camera could not capture the scene inside the trunk.
But what surprised them was that Senator Langdon not only opened the travel bag, but also took out a wad of money, waved it twice, and then suddenly dropped it on the staff!
The chain of evidence was "perfectly" closed. What the ex-husband had to do next was to talk to Senator Langdon again.
At this time, Senator Langdon was very angry. He thought that his ex-husband was just a little smart guy, but he didn't expect that this was not a smart guy at all, but a big smart guy!
He could imagine what kind of negative comments these news would bring to him after they were exposed.
Even if he clarifies this, some people will think that he was discovered and exposed, and then try to cover up these facts!
He glared at the staff member and took a few steps back and forth. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
He quickly returned to the office, hesitated for a moment, picked up the phone, and dialed Lynch's number again.
Lynch was entertaining the Governor at this time. After being introduced by others, they really couldn't find the "Mr. Edward", so they were finally introduced by another Governor.
The Governor contacted Lynch. His request was very simple, as long as the money could be recovered.
The two had just started talking, and it happened to be after Peng Jieao's dinner, around 8:30 in the evening.
And the Federation is just over nine o'clock.
"Sorry, I need to make a call." Lin Qi apologized. His Excellency the Governor was heartbroken, but he could only endure it.
"You're too polite, please, I'll have some tea."
Lynch leaned slightly behind him and left the room. Senator Langdon's phone was answered in another room.
Senator Langdon directly told what happened without any pleasantries, "...that's the situation. The two bags of money are still in the trunk of..."
"I think his methods are not just that simple. There may be circumstances that we don't know about, such as the evidence he left behind."
Lin Qi was a little surprised after hearing this, because this method was dirty, but not too stupid.
He had given enough benefits, including the two bags of money, and Senator Langdon could actually solve the ex-husband's request.
In other words, a less determined person might have acquiesced to the deal and then considered getting back other possible evidence as part of the deal.
Help your ex-husband solve the problem and get back other evidence, so that both parties get the results they want.
Before Trueman came to power, the positions of politicians were never firm. Federal corruption was rampant, but the federal government cleverly used various information to hide these negative things.
But this time, the ex-husband’s target is Senator Langdon. He is not short of money, and he will not ruin his future for the money.
He knew very well that he had no background to rely on. He did not have a grandfather or father who was a president, and he did not have an uncle who was a banker.
The only thing he could rely on was the support of himself and Lynch, and Lynch gave him enough money. There was no need for him to do anything against his professional ethics for the money.
"Call our chief, explain the matter, and then call the police and ask the FBI to investigate."
"Huge bribes and false accusations against important officials of federal government agencies will allow him to go to jail."
"Remember to inform me at any time if you have anything else."
After hanging up the phone, Senator Langdon called the Director-General. The Director-General was also a little surprised, but he still arranged for someone to dispatch the police.
With such a large sum of money involved, it certainly cannot be done lightly.
After the FBI received the call, the agents who were ready got into their cars and went out.
They arrived at the scene quickly and began collecting fixed evidence.
The ex-husband didn't know that Senator Langdon had called the police, and he didn't even think about compromising.
The ex-husband is still thinking about when to call Senator Landon to meet again. This time, their status will be changed.
He will be the one who dominates!
Lynch didn't worry too much after hanging up the phone. The Director-General has been in charge of the FBI for so many years and has been exposed to many cases.
He knew better than himself how to make his ex-husband pay for his stupid behavior, so Lynch still put his mind on his side.
When he returned to the room, His Excellency the Governor immediately put down the nearly full tea cup.
Who the hell would actually drink tons and tons of water when talking about things?
This shows that he really has no choice.
Not only did he want to save the face he had lost, but he also wanted to get back his and the nobles' money.
Every day he was late, he felt like there were more footprints on his face!
To this end, he is willing to "pay tuition."
