Chapter 1932 (1/2)
Wells Fargo building, top floor office.
Eden was on a conference call when the door was knocked open.
”New York police, Eden Lee, please come with us.”
The voice of the other party was clearly transmitted into the phone, which made the meeting scene seem to be stagnant.
”Boss, I try to stop them.” Christina explained with embarrassment.
”Never mind, Tina.”
Aidan raised his voice and said to the microphone, ”sorry, there are some emergencies that need to be addressed. We will continue later.”
Assistants picked up the phone and whispered to shareholders and partners to explain the situation.
All are misunderstandings, which is for sure.
Eden will call them back as soon as possible, that's it.
”Now, sir, please cooperate with us.” The police came forward to grab Aidan's wrist.
A heavy, quick footstep came, ”wait, I'm Mr. Eden Lee's lawyer. Has my client been arrested?”
Sergeant walski, who led the team, said coldly, ”yes.”
”On what charges?”
”Involved in coordinated murder, drug trafficking, judicial bribery...”
”Are you kidding me?” Said Joseph balihana, incredulously.
He's been in the business for half his life, and he's never heard of such a ridiculous indication.
Eden Lee, one of the richest people in America.
The owner of Li's consortia, a super rich man worth at least several billion yuan.
Drug trafficking? murder?
Are you kidding???
”Well, Mr. Eden Lee, please cooperate.” The sheriff signalled his men to do it.
”Wait a minute.”
Another voice interrupted him, and the sheriff looked at the door unhappily.
Three FBI agents came in, ”FBI, special agent Shelby, Sherby.”
”Special agent Shelby, sheriff Kimbo, New York special intelligence unit.”
”Chief Jinbo, what is the situation now?” After being polite, special agent Shelby began to ask about the situation.
”Eden Lee is suspected of being involved in a number of cases such as coordinated murder and drug trafficking.”
”What does it have to do with it?”
”It's confidential.” Police chief Jinbo doesn't want to go on talking. He has found that the situation is changing.
The present situation is not good for us.
”What do I say it has to do with it?” Shelby asked again.
”Sesbass, Medellin group.” Jinbo police chief has no choice but to respond.
”OK, do you have direct evidence?” Asked Shelby.
”Agent Shelby, don't go too far.” Chief Jinbo wants the other party to follow the rules.
”Well, I don't ask. I'm going too far.” Shelby raised his hand and stepped back.
Just as chief Kimbo thought he was winning, Shelby suddenly said, ”this case has been taken over by the FBI. Thank you for your help, chief.”
”Agent!” Jinbo exclaimed in disbelief.
”Sheriff.” Shelby's eyes became sharp. ”I said, it's taken over by the FBI. If you have any problems, let your boss boss boss come to me.”
You know, Shelby is not an ordinary special agent. There are also different levels between them.
Shelby is the top agent reporting directly to the director general and the congressional review team.
In terms of rank, he is equal to the director general of New York.
Therefore, Jinbo is really not enough to see in front of him.
”Yes.” People from the New York police station stormed into the rich country in high spirits and were driven out again.
From the beginning to the end, Eden didn't say a word more.
Until all of them had left, Eden offered to come to agent Shelby, took his hand and said, ”thank you, agent Shelby.”
”No, Eden.” Shelby replied with a smile, ”your father and I are old friends.”
