"What should we do?" Portman and the others knew that Kai would never touch drugs. They had been with Kai in the special response team for five years and knew Kai too well. →Sometimes they found it hard to understand why Kai hated drugs so much. After all, in the United States, the tolerance for drug use is actually very high. In college, many students smoke marijuana and think it is a fashion. Even many states have begun to legislate to legalize marijuana.
But Kai is different. No matter what kind of illegal drugs, they will only end up in his hands and be destroyed. Over the years, all the illegal drugs seized have been burned by Kai. For this, the drug lords in South America once spent a lot of money to kill Kai. Of course, the results of those idiots were not very good, and many of them were killed by Kai himself. In short, Kai's attitude towards drugs is extremely rejected. Let him steal drugs? It's impossible.
"What should we do?"
"Those gunmen." Portman said.
"Cold it!" The guy they caught was just a minion. Apart from this mainland news, they didn't know anything else. Kai didn't know how many gunmen there were, nor did he know the details of those gunmen, and he didn't even know when those gunmen would come. What could Kai do if he didn't know anything?
Kai waved his hand to let others do their work, and he slowly walked back to his office. He had his own plans.
...
Night fell quickly, and Okaro, the police chief of Windham, returned to his home, feeling exhausted.
He now felt that he shouldn't have taken the credit in the first place, and shouldn't have even participated in this mess.
Okaro is only forty years old now. Being able to become the police chief of a city at this age is definitely a promising future. But he knows how much he has. He can do this because of one person, the real controller behind Windham City, or the controller of the entire eastern Minnesota, John Dutton.
The Dutton family is the oldest family in northeastern Minnesota. Since Minnesota officially joined the United States, the Dutton family has been operating ranches in Minnesota. Although so many years have passed and the family has experienced several ups and downs, today, the Dutton family, led by the current head of the family, John Dutton, has the largest ranch in the United States. He owns more than 4 million acres of land, which is spread throughout the northeastern part of Minnesota, and many of the lands around Windham are also owned by the Dutton family. The Dutton family also lives in the northeast of Windham.
Due to the generations of operation of the Dutton family, their family relationships are spread throughout Minnesota, and they are the largest campaign funder for the Republican Party in Minnesota. As the family's residence, Windham City naturally cannot be let go by the Dutton family.
From the mayor to the councilors, the city has received funding from the Dutton family. → The reason why Okaro was able to climb to the position of Chief of the Windham City Police Department before the age of 40 is naturally related to the Dutton family. Okaro's father, Old Okaro, was once an employee of the Dutton Farm. About thirty years ago, when the Dutton family was expanding, they had a conflict with the local indigenous tribes, and old Okaro was shot and killed by the Indians in that conflict.
Since then, Okaro has been taken care of by the Dutton family.
This is definitely a good thing in the eyes of outsiders. It shows that the Dutton family is very good to their subordinates, and those who sacrifice for their family will be well taken care of. But in the eyes of the parties involved, it is not as wonderful as it seems on the surface.
Especially now the head of the Dutton family, John Dutton himself is a very, very strong person. Although Okaro has become the chief of the Windham City Police Department, in the eyes of old Dutton, Okaro is still a member of their Dutton family and a subordinate of their family!
This makes Okaro very uncomfortable. A police chief actually became a farmer's subordinate, and he was the kind who was on call at any time. The police in the entire police station would only listen to the words of the eldest son of the Dutton family, Li, and had no respect for him as the genuine chief.
Such a life made Okaro very depressed. He was only forty years old, and he didn't want to do nothing all day until retirement.
Okaro thought about resistance, but thinking about the power of the Dutton family... Okaro decisively chose to follow his heart. So he thought of another way, that is, to transfer.
Wyndham City is the private land of the Dutton family. Naturally, they don't want to let Okaro, a useful chess piece, slip away from their hands. So Okaro can only choose another way, that is, to make a big news and get himself promoted.
If there is such an opportunity, I believe the Dutton family will also be happy to help. After all, Okaro is their man, and the promotion of their own people is also a means for them to expand their influence. Although Okaro wanted to get rid of the Dutton family, he never intended to turn against the Dutton family. He just wanted to run his own business, not to become a puppet and a living seal. So if possible, he also wanted to use the influence of the Dutton family.
It just so happened that drug dealers have been rampant during this period of time. He wanted to do a big job so that he could make meritorious contributions and be promoted. To this end, he found the new Indian chief of the reservation, Chief Thomas. Thomas was a strong man, extremely wealthy from running a casino, and also ambitious. He wanted to take back the old Indian land that was occupied by the Dutton family, and at the same time expand the Indian territory in order to expand his own business.
Unfortunately, old Dutton was also a strong and stubborn person. He often said, "In the United States, no one will share land with others!"
He always believed that the Dutton family would only buy land and would never sell their own land. So Thomas and John Dutton had a fierce conflict, and even alarmed the governor to mediate several times.
If possible, Okaro did not want to be associated with Thomas, which meant betrayal. But the problem is that although the Dutton family has great influence, in the end, that influence is also official, which is not very helpful to Okaro, at least not very helpful to his plan.
And Thomas runs a casino, and the casino is a natural place for money laundering. Thomas's casino is no exception, and therefore Thomas knows a lot of information that many people don't know.
Okaro made a deal with Thomas. He promised to hand over an autopsy report that was originally destroyed by John Dutton to Thomas, and Thomas gave him information.
Thomas kept his word and gave Okaro information.
That is, the information of old Earl.
But the problem is that Okaro messed it up!
With the help of the Gardner police, he caught Earl and seized 227 kilograms of banned drugs! For this credit, he even lost his face and took all the credit from others. Things were moving in the direction he wanted, but things started to go out of control here.
The drugs were lost!
227 kilograms of drugs were lost! That's 227 kilograms! Let's put it this way, Shaquille O'Neal was only 154 kilograms at his heaviest in the NBA... Just think about it.
Such a heavy thing was lost right under their noses.
Okaro was stunned at the time. If this was investigated, he would forget about his promotion. It would be more realistic to think about where to find a new job after he left. So Okaro once again pitted the Gardner police and threw the Gardner sheriff out as a scapegoat.
In fact, even Okaro knew that it was a bit far-fetched to throw this matter to the Gardner sheriff, but he had to do it. So this guy was very cunning and let the gangsters know that the goods were taken away by the Gardner sheriff. He was confusing people and trying to attract other people's attention.
And Kai was screwed.
Of course, Okaro didn't know how effective this method was, but at least it could buy him some time. But another trouble was already here, the autopsy report!
Thomas wanted the autopsy report!
For Thomas, he didn't care what happened to Okaro, he had fulfilled his promise, and now it was Okaro's turn.
But now for Okaro, this report couldn't be handed in! He no longer had the idea of meritorious service and promotion, and his biggest wish now was to rely on the power of the Dutton family to keep his position, otherwise he would really lose everything.
According to the original idea, he had made great contributions, and then operated and left Wyndham, and then the fight between Thomas and the Dutton family would have nothing to do with him. By then, even if the Dutton family knew that he had betrayed them, they probably wouldn't bother to trouble him. This autopsy report was enough to seriously injure the Dutton family.
But now he can't leave, right...
Okaro is having a headache now. He is trying to find a way to break the situation before being torn apart by Thomas and the Dutton family.
He walked towards the living room while thinking about these things.
But he immediately found something wrong. The house was too quiet. It was only nine o'clock now. His wife and children couldn't go to bed so soon! Out of the vigilance of a policeman, he immediately pulled out the pistol from his waist. He moved gently to the living room.
The living room was dark and the lights were not on.
"Hello, Chief Okaro." Suddenly, the table lamp next to the sofa in the living room was turned on. A man in black sat on the sofa, holding a silver Desert Eagle in his hand and pointing at himself. Due to the light from the table lamp, the man's appearance was still hidden in the dark.
Seeing the Desert Eagle in the man's hand, Okaro raised his hands very cleverly. Let's not talk about whether his gun is faster than the other party, just say that he doesn't know what the situation of his wife and son is now! If the other party has accomplices, he will shoot here and kill people there... So surrender is the best way.
"Hey, man, you don't want to be wanted for killing a policeman, do you? If you want money, I can tell you the safe code. I just want my family to be safe. I can give you anything. Those are women and children. They don't deserve this."
"Tsk!" Faced with Okaro's words, the man seemed dissatisfied. "Chief Okaro, don't worry. I won't touch women and children. I'm here to find you."
After saying this, the man finally came out of the shadows, and the light hit his face, which made Okaro feel nervous.
"Kai! You..." Okaro originally planned to reprimand Kai righteously, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say it... He knew what he had done! When he and his police officers accused Kai in front of the DEA agents, he never thought that this matter could be concealed. He just didn't expect Kai to appear in front of him in this way. This is not a good phenomenon.
A person who was wronged by himself sneaked into his house in the middle of the night, pointing a gun at him, is he just looking for him to chat?
"It seems that you already know why I came to you. Well then, Mr. Okaro, tell me why you framed me?" Kai crossed his legs, placed the Desert Eagle on his thigh, and tapped it gently.
Okaro opened his mouth and finally said in a hoarse voice: "I think... we can discuss this issue in a more peaceful way. You are also a policeman, you should know what the crime is of breaking into a private house at night and threatening a police chief with a gun."
"No, no, no, Mr. Okaro, I am still in the office of the Jiade Town Police Station. So what you said is not true, and the Windham police will only come to this conclusion tomorrow. Last night, a gangster broke into the home of the chief of the Windham City Police Department to steal, and then happened to meet the chief who was going home, and then the chief was shot and the criminal was on the run. Well, we are all policemen, you should know that I can pretend to be a perfect scene, not to mention that I have a perfect alibi. So Mr. Okaro, everyone, keep it simple, tell me why, and let me clear this ridiculous charge."
Kai seemed very relaxed, he didn't even take the gun that Okaro threw on the ground.
But Okaro didn't dare to pick up the gun on the ground. Regarding Kai's combat effectiveness, his colleague had perfectly repeated it. Although he thought there might be some exaggeration, it should be true that he was one against nine and wiped out all nine gangsters. With such fighting power, Okaro didn't think he could be faster than the other party.
"I... I think this is a misunderstanding. I can make it clear to the people of the Drug Enforcement Administration. I don't think we need to go to this step." Kai's words were too scary. It was clear that he wanted to kill himself and then disguise it as a burglary.
"Mr. Okaro, although I haven't used violence so far, it doesn't mean that I am stingy with violence. Why bother, let everyone relax a little, isn't it good?" Kai didn't want to play with him anymore, so he stood up directly and put the muzzle of the gun against his forehead. "Tell me the reason."
When a person is angry, makes a big fuss, and can't control himself, it's not scary, especially for the police. But when a person tells you in a very calm and even relaxed tone that if you don't do what he says, you will die, that's when you really need to take it seriously.
Because that means he knows what he is doing very well and has a complete plan and thinking.
In short, he is ready to kill!
So Okaro confessed everything very honestly.
"Tsk...what's all this?" Kai didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns when he was wrongly accused. But he didn't care much about these things. What he cared more about was that since it wasn't specifically targeting him, who stole the drugs? "Where are the drugs? Who stole those drugs?"
"I don't know, I really don't know, the drugs were taken away from the evidence room of the police station! I really don't know!"
"Okay, I have to find another way to clear my suspicion. Good luck, Mr. Okaro, and have a good dream."
Hearing Kai say this, Okaro was almost scared to death! He thought Kai was going to attack him. Then his eyes went black and he knew nothing.
