Chapter 459: Donations and Hands and Society (Please Collect, Recommend, and Vote for the Monthly Ticket) Please Recommend!!
Kai came out of the interrogation room yawning, and turned his head to call Chap to come out and have breakfast together.
As a result, he bumped into someone as soon as he turned around.
Kai quickly grabbed the person he knocked down.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Kai apologized while helping the man up.
It was not until this time that Kai saw clearly who he had knocked down. It was a black girl, who looked very pretty... For Orientals, using this word to describe a black person is already the limit. Overall, this black girl is very beautiful.
"It's okay, it's okay, I didn't see the road clearly." The girl was also very polite.
Kai waved his hand and didn't take it to heart. Just as a small episode. But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly glanced at the work card on the girl's chest.
"Wait a minute!" Kai stopped the girl who was about to leave.
When Kai called her, the girl's body shook obviously, just like a naughty student caught by the teacher.
"Iris! Why are you here?" Fortunately, Chap came out of the interrogation room at this time and saw this black girl.
"Do you know her?" Kai asked.
"Yes. She is the daughter of Sheriff Joe West of the South District Major Crime Unit. She is now... Wait a minute, Iris, how did you get in? Oh, damn, you didn't sneak in to interview again?" Chap thought of Iris's previous record and shouted immediately.
"Uncle Chap... Don't say that, the public has the right to know, I'm just reporting the facts." Iris saw that she couldn't hide it anymore, and immediately justified her behavior.
Kai also knew it now, it turned out that this girl was a reporter.
"Iris? Why are you here! I was looking for you!" But at this moment, Chloe ran over with a box in her arms. Looking at the sweat on her nose, she looked anxious. "Huh! Here!"
Iris took the box with a confused look on her face.
"What is this?"
Chloe wiped her sweat and said with a bright face: "Donation! This is our donation to Barry."
Ares fell silent when he heard this.
Kai was confused, what's going on?
He looked at Chap.
Chap explained to Kai in a low voice.
It turns out that this girl named Iris has a brother, strictly speaking, not a brother. In short, there is a white boy named Barry who was adopted by Iris's father, Sheriff Joe of the South District Major Crime Unit, more than ten years ago. So Barry and Iris grew up together, and it's not a problem to say that he is her brother.
Some time ago, the boy named Barry was struck by lightning...
Now he is lying in the hospital and has become a vegetable. →
Kai blinked his eyes and suddenly felt a strong sense of déjà vu.
Struck by lightning...
It's a must for time travel!
Is this child destined to become the chosen one?
Of course, the above is all nonsense. Even if Kai is not good at it, he will not joke with others about this. In short, because Barry has become a vegetable, he can only lie in the hospital bed. Although he also has medical insurance, similar to China, medical insurance in the United States does not reimburse all medical expenses. And medical expenses in the United States are really damn expensive!
Joe is a veteran sheriff with a high crime-solving rate and a hateful personality. Many police officers in the Los Angeles Police Department know him and have a high prestige. Now that things have happened, many police stations have begun to spontaneously hold donations.
Look, Chloe has also initiated donations at the West District Police Department.
"The kid has no other problems except that he is a bit of a nag. He is a good kid, and he is also a forensic forensic examiner at the South District Police Department. He is very capable... What a pity." Chap said as he took out his wallet and took out a few hundred dollars and stuffed it into the donation box.
Iris wanted to refuse... but her family really needed money. Although Barry's medical expenses are still supported by medical insurance and life insurance, no one can tell when Barry will wake up. So Iris did not refuse everyone's kindness.
Americans are very good at this point, that is, they are not hypocritical.
Chloe was very happy to see Iris accept the donation. Then she saw Kai.
"Boss! You can't just watch!"
Westerners are very enthusiastic about charity, but they don't like moral kidnapping as much as in China. After all, whether to donate or not is a personal behavior, and you should do it according to your ability. However, after getting along with Kai, Chloe believes that she understands her boss.
Apart from anything else, at least Chloe can tell from Kai's low-key but extremely expensive clothes that Kai is not short of money. Besides, Kai doesn't look like a stingy person.
Sure enough, Kai didn't think much after hearing what Chloe said. He didn't feel that he was being morally kidnapped. After all, others didn't say that he had to donate more because he had money, it was just a gesture.
Kai didn't have the habit of carrying cash. In fact, Americans don't have the habit of carrying cash either. There are really not many people who want to carry hundreds of dollars in their wallets like Chap. Most Americans are used to using credit cards. Kai is not used to credit cards. He is more used to Micropay and Alipay. It's just that there is no such payment terminal in the United States.
Although there is no payment terminal, Kai has other ways.
Checkbook
Kai took out a checkbook from his pocket, swiped the last number, and prepared to throw it into the donation box. →
In his previous life, Kai had almost never touched a check... Anyway, in Kai's opinion, checks are very high-end and only high-end business people use them. That's how it's shown on TV. This makes Kai always think that doing this is very cool.
So it can be said that he is pretending or that he is doing it on purpose. Kai now pays by check most of the time, and many places in the United States also accept this payment method, and checks can be written for a few dollars.
Chloe was curious about how much Kai would donate, so she snatched the check halfway.
This is a very rude behavior. After all, it is a personal wish. Chloe snatched it like an invasion of personal privacy. If Kai was a pure American, he might be angry, but Kai has always been Chinese in his heart, and he is more accepting of this kind of thing. Chinese people don't look at things as rigidly as Americans. Chinese people prefer to look at the motivation.
For example, many celebrities donate money. Many people don't really care how much the celebrities donate, but look at his motivation. If the celebrity donates for fame, then it's over, and all kinds of boycotts will come. This kind of thing is sometimes annoying. After all, how many celebrities do charity without any purpose?
I'm getting off topic. Anyway, Kai can see that Chloe has no ill intentions, just pure curiosity.
"Wow! Ten thousand dollars!"
Kai signed the check directly for ten thousand dollars. This is a lot of money no matter where it is placed. At least it is impossible for anyone to donate more than this amount to the police department.
"Is it too much?" Kai saw Chloe's expression and thought he had donated too much.
Iris waved his hand quickly: "Not so much."
Iris didn't know Kai's situation. If it was based on the income of a normal police officer, Kai's donation was indeed a lot. According to Kai's position and police rank, his annual income is about 84,000 US dollars, and it will not exceed 100,000 US dollars at most. Donating 10,000 US dollars at once is definitely a huge sum of money.
Chloe was very open-minded. She didn't care about Iris's refusal at all and directly put the check into the donation box.
"Don't worry about him, he is a rich man."
After that, she didn't care about Ares, but said to Kai: "Joe is here. Among the people we arrested, two are related to a shooting case in the South District. Joe plans to merge the cases."
Kai nodded, indicating that he knew.
"Just leave it to Dan. I want to sleep now." After saying that, he nodded to Iris and took Chap out. Before reaching a deal with those guys, I couldn't ask, so I might as well take this time to have a good rest.
...
Iris looked at Kai who was leaving, still a little overwhelmed. After all, he gave too much.
Chloe saw Iris like this, smiled and patted her shoulder.
"Don't feel embarrassed, I can tell you for sure that our boss is very rich!" After saying that, Chloe secretly looked around and whispered: "I tell you, our boss has a very close relationship with Salize Theron... you know."
Because of a reporter's sensitivity to news, Iris immediately grasped the point.
"Is he the mysterious man who had a scandal with Salize Theron?" Iris also remembered where she had seen Kai. A lot of people paid attention to Salize Theron's scandal a few days ago.
But I didn't expect Chloe to pick it up at this time.
"Ahem, I didn't say that. Anyway, our boss doesn't let me talk nonsense."
Hearing the string, I knew the elegant meaning. Iris immediately understood what Chloe meant.
She immediately raised three fingers.
"I swear, I will never log out."
Chloe was waiting for this, and immediately pulled Iris to gossip. It is definitely a very tiring thing to know a piece of gossip but not be able to share it with others. Especially yesterday, Chloe saw Charlize Theron personally come to the police station, and left in a car with Kai. Chloe's gossip flames ignited all of a sudden.
Iris listened to the gossip while thinking about how to find news from Kai.
Whether it was Kai's wealth or the scandal with Charlize Theron, she smelled the smell of news from Kai.
...
Just when Kai finished breakfast and went back to sleep.
Jin Bing also received news that his people were wiped out by the police.
"So... our people are finished?" With the crisp sound of the lighter, Jin Bing lit a cigar. It seemed that he didn't care about the news at all. In fact, it was true. Like those gunmen, Jin Bing had as many as he wanted. As long as they were willing to pay, some people were willing to work for Jin Bing with guns.
"Everyone except Carl Burbank and Erica has been killed by the police." Kingpin's right-hand man James stood opposite Kingpin and reported carefully.
Seeing James' expression, Kingpin knew that he had something else to say, and it was definitely not good news.
"What else, say it together."
"In addition... the Hand and the Society no longer want to provide us with intelligence."
Kingpin stopped smoking his cigar after hearing the name of the Hand and the Society.
"Why?"
"They said that our actions have begun to gradually affect their business in Los Angeles..."
"Tell me the real reason." Kingpin would not believe that the ninjas would be afraid of this.
The Hand and the Society, an extremely mysterious ninja killer group, their details are very mysterious. Kingpin once tried to find out the secrets of the Hand and the Society, but failed. He only knew that the Hand and the Society was a tight and loose ninja organization.
They originated in Japan, and there are also reports that their real source is the mysterious country in the East. But it's just a rumor. Anyway, the first time the Hand and the Society appeared was in Japan.
They are said to be tight because the Hand is extremely mysterious. They are involved in many black businesses, from drug trafficking to arms, human trafficking, smuggling, and even many legitimate industries, but the strange thing is that the outside world knows very little about them. They often hang the skin of Japanese gangs and move around, and sometimes even support some Japanese gangs for their use. They are always hidden in various conspiracies and fogs.
Even the FBI's Hand is only aware of some of the fur, and knows nothing about their organizational structure, hidden bases and relationship networks.
They are said to be loose because Jin Bing knows.
The Hand is actually divided into five parts, each governed by five mysterious elders, and the connection between them is also very loose. Even most of the time, the subordinates of the Hand do not know who each other is.
The symbol of the Hand is a bloody handprint with five fingers open. The five fingers symbolize the five leaders of the Hand.
The relationship between Jin Bing and the Hand is also very simple, that is, mutual use. The Hand and the Society can use some secret channels to deliver a lot of high-purity drugs to major cities in the United States, many of which are even laboratory-grade.
Jin Bing's many businesses on the East Coast are in cooperation with the Hand and the Society, and those ninjas are his most important suppliers.
However, Jin Bing is not cooperating with the entire Hand and the Society. He is cooperating with a "finger" of the Hand and the Society. And this finger is very mysterious. It is an old Asian woman who calls herself Mrs. Gao. A very powerful and powerful woman. Even when Jin Bing faces this old woman, he sometimes feels chilled, as if everything about him will be seen clearly by this old woman who may die at any time.
Jin Bing can feel that the decayed body contains extremely terrible power. So he has always been very concerned about the movements of the Hand and the Society.
James hesitated for a while before saying: "Mrs. Gao's men told me... Los Angeles has placed an order on the high table."
"High table..." Jin Bing's face finally fluctuated when he heard the name. Became gloomy and angry.
"The Hand and the High Table have an agreement. They will not conflict with the High Table. But..."
"But what?"
"The other party still gave us a message. Los Angeles placed an order with the Assassin Brotherhood through the High Table. The target is Carl Burbank and Erica. The people of Los Angeles want to find them and kill them."
Bang!
King punched the desk, and everything on the solid wood desk was shaken up, and a deep fist mark was left on it.
