Chapter 261: Elected Sheriff (Please Collect, Recommend, and Vote) 4250 Words Combined Chapter

The United States is a money society. This does not mean that anyone is blackmailing the other, because this is the fact, and Americans themselves think so. →Money makes things easier. This is especially true in the United States. The gamblers who sued Saji are actually very easy to deal with.

Are they really seeking justice by prosecuting Saji?

It’s not that they want compensation. In that case, Kai will just give it to them without having to pay legal fees.

Portman took the list he got from the casino, threw the US dollars directly in front of those people, and everything was settled. And Portman is an asshole, and some things really need to be handled by assholes. With Portman offering US dollars and implicit threats, many people said they would withdraw the lawsuit on the spot.

The corrupt prosecutors and complicit police officers ignored these messes. In less than a day, all the lawsuits against Saji were settled. At the same time, the criminal prosecution regarding Saji's causing trouble in public places was easier to handle. The casino stopped pursuing the case and gave the police a little money, which quickly smoothed it all away.

However, neither Saji nor his father Vaughn could accept this. They do not feel that they are at fault, nor do they feel that there is anything commendable about spending money to settle these lawsuits. They even express shame at all this.

"If you don't like it, then change it. Instead of sitting here and complaining." Why does Kai like this kind of stupidity? He was a criminal policeman in his previous life, and what he despised the most was this kind of nonsense, but how could he live in this world and not do anything wrong? The adult world is cruel. However, it is not impossible to change these status quos. "Do you still remember the idea you told us before?"

"Be a policeman?" Saji thought.

"That's right! Just to be a police officer." Kai said decisively. To deal with this gang of gangsters, no identity is enough. It just so happens that Kai will do two things in his life, one is to be a soldier, and the other is to be a policeman. Therefore, he was still very tempted by Saji's proposal before.

Their previous opinion was actually to be a police officer in Wyndham City, but it was just a police officer, it didn't matter where they did it. Even working as a police officer in the town gives you a little more freedom.

In the United States, there are many types of police officers.

The police in the United States are mainly divided into three levels: federal, state, and city and county. The federal and state police exercise the police powers granted by the federal and state respectively. Sub-state police powers are determined by each state. Local police include states, counties, and cities. In addition to police, there are also agents, ATF, inspectors, ICE, detectives, patrols, and sheriffs. county Sheriff), marshal (Department of Justice bailiff), this is not all, there are police in the postal service, police in forestry, police in national parks, police in fisheries and wildlife, prison guards (this is a must), the capital Washington DC also has independent police The most shocking thing about the police is that many of them are temporary workers, and they are also counted as police officers.

Among them, small towns like Jiade Town also have their own police, and these police are not appointed by Wyndham City. →This type of small town police is different from the PD in big cities. They are also called security guards and are private police hired by the townspeople themselves. It was the people of the town who gave them the power to enforce the law.

In fact, Garter Town only gave the Sheriff, that is, Sheriff, the power of law enforcement, and then the Sheriff recruited police officers. The town police were under the command of Sheriff, and the position of Sheriff was not appointed by any living organization, but is elected.

The Sheriff is not accountable to any specific person and is not subject to the supervision of the County Sheriff or the County Council. All he needs to be responsible for is the voters. Even the funds for the police station are raised by the Sheriff. This is the case in a small place like Guardian Town. The town itself has insufficient funds and cannot provide much funds to the police.

So generally speaking, the powers of the Sheriff are quite large. And I don’t have any bosses, so I’m definitely a local coward.

The reason why the small town police chose to collude with the gangs is also here, they also need to make ends meet. The town's economy is getting worse and worse, and the police officers' salaries are naturally getting smaller and smaller. In order to support the brothers under his command, the sheriff can only do bad things.

It just so happens that the Sheriff election is coming soon. In the past, the position of the Sheriff was a hot potato. He did not charge much and had many things to do. No one would compete with the current Sheriff. This just gave Kai and the others a chance.

As long as you have the identity of a police officer, you will certainly be able to deal with these gangsters!

"But...will anyone support us?" Saji was a little hesitant. He had not returned to his hometown for six years. And Kai, Meatball and Portman are proper outsiders!

Kai was a little speechless. "Do you think, with the current moral character of the small town police, there will be people who will support them?"

"That's right! I will go back and tell the others right away that I will choose you to be the Sheriff! Let the worms in the town die as far away as possible!" Father Vaughn slapped his thigh and immediately supported Kai's idea. In his opinion, no matter how hard he said it, Kai was still his son's comrade-in-arms and commander. Much more trustworthy than those crooked police officers!

After Kai and his father said this, Saji also understood. Let’s not talk about whether Kai and the others are trustworthy. The original group of people have already gone all the way. Even if the ending is bad, can it be worse than it is now? Why don't the townspeople elect someone new to be the Sheriff? At least outsiders like Kai have nothing to do with those gangsters, right?

So Sage, who was lying on the hospital bed, immediately started the campaign. He called his friends and asked them to support him and Kai in the election for sheriff.

…

About a month later, the election for the sheriff was held as scheduled. The original sheriff never thought that the residents of the town would support an outsider instead of continuing to support his re-election. Sage and his father knew that the sheriff had been in collusion with those gangsters, so they did not make a big fuss at the beginning, but secretly canvassed for votes everywhere until the day of the election, when they turned against the original sheriff and elected Kai as the new sheriff!

It was very simple, not difficult at all, just like elementary school students electing class monitors. →

Then Kai, an outsider, announced his election in the gymnasium of the town high school where the election was held. And as soon as he was elected, he fulfilled his promise.

Fire all the original police officers of the police station!

These police officers were recruited by the sheriff himself, and their stay or departure naturally only required a word from the sheriff.

Those policemen went berserk on the spot. There is a saying: Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents.

This saying is the same everywhere.

These policemen are living a comfortable life now. Police salaries are part of their income, and helping Hamilton is another income. In this way, one person has two incomes. Now that they are fired, all their incomes are cut off at once. It would be strange if they don't go berserk.

But Kai didn't care about that. He immediately recruited Saji, Rouqiu, Portman, and several friends of Saji on the spot. These people were agreed upon in advance. He, Rouqiu, and Portman are all outsiders. In order to reassure the locals, they must have local people as guarantors. And recruiting several friends of Saji is to calm the hearts of the locals.

Kai directly took out a few police badges and threw them to them, and then asked them to deal with these troublemakers.

Because from the moment Kai announced that he would fire them, they were no longer policemen, and they would be arrested for making trouble!

Everything was planned.

And these former policemen didn't dare to use guns in broad daylight, and they were beaten up badly.

Saji had been patient for almost a month, and was discharged from the hospital yesterday. He was not fully recovered. But he was the most angry, and he beat a group of guys with bandages. Portman was the most insidious, and he hit the most severely, specifically hitting the vital parts. The guys he beat up rolled on the ground holding their crotches, crying so sadly.

Although Meatball was accurate, he didn't hold back. The guys he beat up all sat on the ground with their heads in their hands, unable to get up.

After that, Kai led his men to the police station and sealed off the gun vault. The things in here can't be lost, otherwise there will be big problems. Don't think that the United States doesn't ban guns, and think that the United States has a loose control on guns. In fact, the United States is not careless in gun control. After all, no one is stupid. If there are so many guns hanging around outside, it will definitely be a mess. Especially the guns in the police station are strictly supervised. The bullets and gun barrels are strictly numbered, and all are recorded.

When the police shoot, they need to report it afterwards, and the bullets need to be recovered afterwards.

Anyway, if someone takes the police station's guns, Kai, the new sheriff, will be in trouble.

...

In the casino.

Hamilton looked at the unemployed police and felt very difficult. There was no way, the guy named Kai was too fierce, and he fired all the police right away. He didn't know how to deal with it at this moment.

In order to win over these policemen, Hamilton had put a lot of effort. Now it's good, they were all taken away. In other words, all the previous investment was wasted.

What made him even more upset was that these policemen came to him, and he couldn't ignore it. Others worked for him anyway, and now a group of people had no income. If not him, who else would they look for. After all, it was because of him that these people were fired.

Of course, it didn't matter if Hamilton didn't care. He was a gangster businessman, and he was for making money, not a philanthropist. There was no need to support these people.

But back on topic, these fired policemen are not completely useless. They can shoot, have been policemen, and know a lot about things. Now they are gangsters, so their expertise is suitable.

"You stay in the casino first." Hamilton decided to accept these people.

Hamilton is not just doing casino business, that's how much money he can make. The real money-making business is illegal drugs! Although the broken place of Jiade Town is very remote, the geographical environment is actually quite good. To the north is Canada, which is also a huge market.

To the east is Lake Superior, one of the five Great Lakes in the United States. And the five Great Lakes are the same. Through the Great Lakes waterway, he can buy laundry detergent to cities around the five Great Lakes, especially Chicago, which is the largest crime capital in the United States, and the demand for laundry detergent and other contraband is almost endless.

These people are policemen, and they know everything about policemen. Let's not talk about anything else, just let them come to sell drugs, which is definitely much better than the newcomers. And their identity as policemen can fool many people. Besides, if they are brave enough, they can just let them drive police cars to sell drugs!

Eh... Thinking of this, Hamilton felt that he had thought of another way!

"But what about those people?"

"Who?"

"Sage's gang! Are we just going to let it go?" These fired policemen are still not convinced. Why were they fired? They have lost their position as policemen and don't think they did anything wrong.

"Let me think about it."

Not to mention, although Hamilton is powerful, he really doesn't dare to do anything to a bunch of police officers. The identity of a police officer does not seem to be very good. But the reality is that no matter what kind of police they are, they still have a strong deterrent effect on criminals like them, otherwise society would have been in chaos long ago.

But reality did not give Hamilton any extra choices.

…

"What's going on?" Kai drove the police and Portman to a house.

It was Saji who called them here.

When they arrived, a lot of people had gathered outside the house, as well as ambulances and paramedics. Saji was like an ant on a hot pot at this time, waiting anxiously behind a group of ambulance personnel.

"It's Saji's nephew. Overdose."

The Sage family has settled in this town for sixty years and has many relatives. This family and Saji are cousins. His cousin encountered a black bear while going hunting in the mountains a few years ago and was gored to death by a blind bear. Only orphans and widows were left in the family.

But this kid didn't learn well at a young age. He took drugs in his garage with a bunch of classmates, and the result was tragic...

Sighing, Kai really had nothing to say to these children in America. Everyone uses drugs as a symbol of freedom, as if anyone who dares not to take drugs is a coward. Everyone uses that thing as a fashion... I don't know whether it's because they have a bad mind or because they live a good life.

If Kai had followed Kai's idea and dragged these grandsons out and beaten them up, everything would have been fine. But in the United States, hitting a child will attract the police at any time, and if you don't do it well, you will be sued. There are two institutions in the United States that are the most difficult to handle.

One is the IRS, and the other is various minor protection agencies.

Regardless of the IRS, this organization is the best in the United States. Needless to say, others directly equipped 30,000 mountain mechanized divisions. If they don't pay taxes, they will be sanctioned by the Iron Fist!

The other is those minor protection agencies. They don’t have strong law enforcement power, but others stand on the moral high ground. When facing this kind of organization, anyone who is reasonable must be weak, otherwise public opinion will spray you to death.

The reason why these children seek death is not only because their lives are too good, but also because they are spoiled!

Kai shook his head and did not bother Saji. Instead, he walked towards several children who were being questioned by other police officers.

Each of these boys is still staring blankly, obviously still in a state of excitement, and their words are clouded and unclear.

Kai waved his hand and told the others to go away.

"Tam, you and Kingston give way first and let me do it."

These two friends of Saji joined the police department newly. They are all locals. There are only about 2,000 people in Jiade Town, and everyone in the town knows each other. There is nothing they can do about these two naughty kids.

Kai looked at them and refused to ask why. So I can only do it myself.

Kai was much rougher. He picked up a boy by his collar, lifted him into the air, and then slammed him into the ambulance behind him!

bump!

"Boy! Where did those washing powder come from? Who sold it to you?!!!"

The boy who was in a daze immediately woke up a lot, and when he saw Kai's murderous look on his face, he was so scared that he even peed!
