Chapter Thirty-Six: The Deception of Heaven's Gate
After a while, two police officers stepped out of the car, holding a small plastic bag containing powdered crystals.
"Where did these come from?"
"We are legal! These are for medical use!" the man emphasized.
"What should I do, boss?"
Leiter squinted his eyes and looked at these guys, feeling a little weird.
"Sir, the person has been arrested, but some unexpected circumstances have occurred..."
"What?"
Edward frowned: "You mean, we arrested the wrong person?!"
"Yes, they are just some drug-addicted brats. Only syringes and some medical methamphetamine were found in the car, but no trading items were found."
"And they didn't carry weapons."
Edward said solemnly: "Take him back for trial!"
He knows that these people are definitely tricky!
At this moment, Edward's work cell phone rang.
Edward looked at the caller ID, was stunned for a moment, and then answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Hello, Chief Edward, I'm Andorle Lake, Assistant Agent in Charge of the FBI."
"According to the latest news from my channel, members of Heaven's Gate will conduct transactions near the World Trade Center tonight. I hope to get the cooperation of the Security Bureau."
Edward frowned: "We have already secured the World Trade Center and only found some syringes and small fish."
"That is most likely a deception arranged by Heaven's Gate."
"The real deal may have begun!"
After hearing Andor's words, Edward nodded, which was in line with his expectations.
A group of drug addicts went to the back door of the World Trade Center to get needles. It was really weird.
But before Edward could say anything, the other party said again: "However, the other party is likely to carry firearms, and other organizations including the Dark Forest are involved. I hope we can cooperate to prevent the transaction from being completed."
Edward hummed: "Where are your people currently? Do you have a corresponding cooperation plan?"
Andor replied: "We are containing the people in the Dark Forest. The main force of this operation depends on your side. We will provide relevant real-time intelligence as much as possible."
Indeed, Edward knew in his heart that although the FBI was still focused on domestic affairs, it was mainly responsible for investigating international intelligence and terrorist activities, and its authority to operate in urban areas was not as good as that of the local security bureau.
After all, it is the Security Bureau and the Police Department that can really take charge of the case.
However, after hanging up the phone, Edward's face looked a little ugly.
"Are all parties involved?"
It seems that this case is more complicated than imagined!
In multi-party games, many uncontrollable situations often occur.
Being out of control is a very bad thing for a veteran police officer like Edward.
"Leiter, how are you doing there?" At this time, Edward did not forget about the people in Group A who were performing the mission on the other side.
"They have always stressed that there were no violations and they were wrongly accused."
"Ask them if someone taught them to say that?"
Leiter looked at these sallow-looking young people and said sternly: "Is someone telling you to tell you that you are not guilty of injecting medical methamphetamine?"
"You can take advantage of the law, but the Security Bureau has also determined that you are suspected of undermining the security of the beautiful country!"
After hearing Lei Te's words, a trace of doubt flashed across the young man's face, but he quickly said loudly: "It's really a misunderstanding, sir!"
"Although there is no right to impose the death penalty in the free Gotham City, it would not be easy for you to stay in prison for the rest of your life for violating security, right?"
When several other people heard this, their expressions changed slightly.
"Say it."
Several people looked at each other, but seemed a little afraid.
In the end, he remained silent.
Leiter took a deep breath and said: "Let's take these people back for trial first. These are small fish. Don't let us focus on these people all the time."
"There are more important things to do next."
Next to him, Leiter's assistant nodded, waved his hand, and was about to ask someone to come forward and take down these trash fish.
After stuffing these people into the car, Group A quickly withdrew from the back door.
The moonlight poured down, making this area of the World Trade Center particularly bright.
Nightlife seems to have begun.
Tian Qing and Nara were sitting in a private room in the rest area, drinking tea.
"If Professor Tian Qing has any request, why don't you just say it directly." Nara took a sip of hot tea and spoke first.
"It's nothing special. It's just that I remember that you will speak in front of me at the academic exchange meeting tomorrow."
Tian Qing nodded and said in a deep voice: "My show is at ten o'clock tomorrow."
"I'm at ten-thirty. If you don't mind, how about we change the order? I want to finish earlier. At ten-thirty tomorrow, in another venue, there will be Professor Thomas, whom I admire very much."
Nara: "For this kind of thing, you can actually apply directly to the organizer."
“But it is more necessary to obtain the consent of the speaker.”
Nara groaned, then nodded.
"Okay, the organizer agrees to the exchange, I have no problem."
Nara knew that Professor Thomas was the winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics a few years ago, and had a certain overlap with Tian Qing in the academic field. It was understandable that Tian Qing wanted to observe.
Moreover, using this to resolve the relationship between the two parties has no cost to Nara.
However, what makes Nara a little puzzled is that Tian Qing is also a veteran. He established his authority in public in the afternoon just for the evening?
At this time, Chu Yun was in another private room. He was watching the video from the surveillance camera, drinking coffee, and listening to the conversation between Tian Qing and Nara.
However, he is not alone.
Opposite him, there was a woman wearing an off-white windbreaker sitting.
The woman has long hair shawl, devilish face, and attractive figure.
Exactly...
Yang Mingyue!
"How do you know me?" Chu Yun asked casually while watching the situation in the video.
Yang Mingyue kept staring at Chu Yun.
"I noticed you from the first moment we looked at each other on the plane."
"And when we looked at each other in the hall, I wasn't sure at the time, but when some police officers arrested you, it was clearly you who escaped here."
