The Wolf of Los Angeles.

Police lights flashed and police cars converged in Mumbai's central business district.

A large number of police officers stormed into an office building and sealed off the Loda Group's office area.

Several senior police officers accompanied the local prosecutor into the chairman's office and took away Hafiz, the head of the Loda Group.

Other key executives, such as CFOs and COOs, were also taken into police custody.

The Loda Group, which once shocked the world with its second tallest building, has essentially come to an end due to its threat to India's national security.

The company's remaining valuable assets will naturally be used to compensate the various high-ranking officials for their "losses".

At the same time, a professional demolition team arrived at the scene as quickly as possible to demolish the World One Tower.

On a sunny afternoon, Gilberto and Juan arrived at the second tallest building near World One.

Looking at the bare concrete building more than a kilometer away, the former asked, "Won't this place be affected?"

Juan said with a smile, "The Indian military has deployed its most professional demolition team, and the two sides are more than a kilometer apart, so there will definitely be no problem."

Gilberto, however, was deeply worried: "If it were handled by professionals from outside India, there shouldn't be much of a problem, but the Indian military..."

Juan then realized he had overlooked the most crucial issue and said, "Don't worry, the distance is far enough. The Indians wouldn't use heavy aerial bombs for a building like this, would they?"

Outside the construction site of World One Tower, the Indian military blocked the roads, with numerous Indian soldiers on duty, stopping passing vehicles and pedestrians.

At the command of the officer wearing a beret, the engineers pressed the detonator.

A dull explosion sounded.

The beret-wearing officer stared in surprise, because the support pillars that exploded were not the row that was planned.

According to the demolition plan, they were going to blow up the main support column on the left, so that the building would collapse onto the open ground on the left.

However, the explosion occurred on the right-hand row of main support columns.

Right before everyone's eyes, the bare World One building collapsed toward the main road on the right.

Rumbling--

After a loud crash, shattered concrete blocks splattered haphazardly across the main road.

The building's quality may be worse than expected; some concrete debris rolled into the shops across the street, causing screams to erupt.

The unluckiest people weren't the shopkeepers, but the Indian soldiers on duty on the road.

They never expected that their engineering corps colleagues would be so unreliable, even getting the drilling and blasting locations wrong.

At least twenty Indian soldiers were trapped under the rubble.

Once the dust settled, the engineers who had detonated the explosives panicked.

The beret officer said, "Don't panic, we have plenty of experience handling these kinds of incidents..."

He immediately found a reason and excuse: "This was a trap set by the Loda Group and their partners. Our military exposed their conspiracy to endanger India's national security in time and protected the safety of Mumbai citizens. This is a victory, not a defeat!"

The engineers were completely dumbfounded.

The beret-wearing officer was convinced that his superiors would agree with his point of view.

On a rooftop a kilometer away, Gilberto and Juan stared in disbelief.

The two put down their binoculars, and Juan said, "As expected of the Indian military, they can make such a big deal out of something so simple."

Gilberto shook his head and said, "They'll definitely crash more military aircraft in the future."

Juan asked, "I heard their Tejas fighter jet is designed to compete with the F-22 Raptor?"

"Believe me, if alien spaceships appear, the Tejas fighter jet will definitely be compared to spaceships." Gilberto has been in charge of dealing with the Indian military for the past few years and knows them very well: "You never know when the Tejas fighter jet will poop a huge thing in front of the whole world."

Juan believes this: "I wonder how the Indians will report on this explosion."

Gilberto said with a smile, "It's simple, just pin it all on the Loda Group."

The two watched the drama unfold for a while longer before leaving the rooftop. On their way back to the hotel, they even made a phone call with Abhishek.

As expected, the responsibility for the demolition by explosives fell on Luoda Group and its partners.

Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, D.C.

As agreed, White House Special Assistant Regina arrived at a clubhouse and met Elizabeth Carter, who was waiting there.

The two focused their discussion on the current election situation, with particular emphasis on their newly emerging competitor, Mr. Dong.

Elizabeth emphasized, "Hawk had received information that Dong Zong might intervene in the election and become a stumbling block for us within the party, so he made some preparations several years ago."

Regina has also been paying attention to Dong Zong, this newly emerging competitor, and learning about what's happening in India. She asked, "The One World Tower incident in Mumbai?"

“That’s right. The World One Tower incident has caused an irreparable rift in Mr. Dong’s network of connections.” A smile appeared on Elizabeth’s pale face as she said, “We just received news that the Indian military demolished the entire World One Tower today under the pretext of endangering national security.”

Regina smiled with relief: "This is good news. Those celebrities, tycoons and politicians who invested in real estate in World One Tower will fight Dong Zong to the death. They will no longer be able to support Dong Zong's election."

Elizabeth continued, "Brian met with Pence and Palin, two key figures in the New Tea Party, and gained their support. Their families have invested heavily in One World Tower and are preparing to sue Mr. Dong to obtain full compensation for breach of contract."

"That's great!" Regina couldn't help but clap her hands and said, "In the upcoming preliminary party elections, Dong Zong will pose a much smaller threat to us."

Elizabeth's visit this time was not just to report the situation, but also to incite conflict between the two sides. She said, "There are many American investors in One World Tower, and in the coming week, we expect to see several related legal cases."

Regina understood immediately: "The White House will be closely monitoring the situation and will push the case forward to protect the rights of the buyers."

This will leave little room for reconciliation between the two sides.

“We must ensure that Dong Zong is eliminated early,” Elizabeth continued. “Dong Zong is a billionaire, and we cannot underestimate the power of money. We must completely cut off Dong Zong’s path to the election.”

Having served as a special assistant to the White House for several years, Regina has a particularly deep understanding of the power of money. She said, "Then let Mr. Dong be overwhelmed by the heavy debt burden."

Elizabeth said, "There's another thing you need to pay attention to. This week, someone will post some pictures and videos on Twitter and file a report with the FBI, accusing Mr. Dong of rape. They hope the FBI will take this seriously."

Regina knew this man was Hawke and Brian's representative in Washington, and immediately replied, "No problem, I'll report to the President later."

Elizabeth raised her coffee cup: "Pleasure doing business with you." "Pleasure doing business with you," Regina replied, raising her coffee cup and lightly clinking it against Elizabeth's.

Elizabeth took her leave first, and upon returning to Peterson Consulting, immediately called the Los Angeles office.

Regina returned to the White House, found Tom Emmer, and reported the relevant matters.

“Immediately notify the FBI and the prosecutors to form a special team to handle matters related to Dong Zong.” Tom Emer felt that Dong Zong would not threaten his party selection and said, “Having a collaborator like Hawke will make things much easier for us and avoid too much trouble.”

Regina echoed, "We're still working on a plan to deal with Mr. Dong, but Hawke has already taken care of him with ease."

Tom Emer nodded slightly: "I spoke with Brian on the phone. Brian personally visited some people, including Pence and Palin, who had all suffered losses because of Dong Zong and all expressed that they would stand on Brian's side."

Regina laughed: "That means they're on our side."

Tom Emer was still somewhat worried: "Hopefully, the support of these people can offset the negative impact of the failed operation to hunt down Benladdon."

Claire then came in from outside, glanced at the two of them, but didn't say anything, and went straight into her bedroom.

Tom Emer frowned slightly and said to Regina, "You hurry up and get on with it. I need to talk to Claire."

Regina reached out and gently scratched Tom Emmer's palm: "She's leaving Washington this afternoon. I'll be waiting for you in the room tonight."

Tom Emer came to the door and knocked on the closed door: "Can we talk?"

There was no sound inside, as if no one was there.

Tom Emer asked a couple more questions, but Claire remained silent.

The former angrily kicked the door and stormed off.

Claire pretended the man didn't exist, packed her bags, gathered her people, and left the White House by car.

The current First and First Ladies of the United States have long since fallen out and have no further communication with each other in private.

…………

Los Angeles, San Fernando Valley.

Denise, who had just become a producer and company executive, dressed in a smart business suit, quickly came out of the office building and got into a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked in front of the door.

Neville, who was in the car, said to the driver, "Let's go to the FBI's Los Angeles branch."

Daniels opened her bag, glanced at the evidence she carried, and asked, "Have you made all the contact over there?"

“It’s all arranged,” Neville explained in detail. “A female agent will meet with you. Just hand over what you’re bringing. If time permits, Jennifer Ferguson, the head of the FBI’s Los Angeles branch, will also meet with you, as this matter is of great importance.”

Danielle looked on with a hint of surprise: "The governor's wife?"

Neville smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. It's just a normal reporting process. The case is quite serious, involving a presidential candidate, so she will definitely come forward in person."

Denise could sense the importance the other person placed on her: "That's great."

The Rolls-Royce Phantom drove south and soon arrived in downtown Los Angeles, where it entered the FBI's Los Angeles branch office.

The case progressed very smoothly; the FBI accepted Denise's case and received the video evidence she provided.

During this time, Jennifer, who had received a report about the case, came to the reception room to personally inquire about the relevant situation.

The case was relatively clear, and there was direct video evidence. Following relevant procedures, Jennifer assigned her subordinate, Chick, to handle the case and forwarded it to the federal prosecutor's office to expedite the subpoena process.

As she left the FBI office building, Denise smiled broadly and said, "A game of 'Ace's Love' with an old man, and I got millions of dollars in compensation. It was totally worth it."

Neville cautioned, "Don't say things like that to anyone again."

“I understand.” These past few days, Denise has received quite a bit of re-education from Neville.

After sending Denise to Beverly Hills to see a lawyer, Neville specifically called Hawke.

Inside the Coast Building, Hawke was watching a video of the demolition of World One, filmed by Mumbai. Upon hearing Neville's account, he said, "Let's launch the attack on Danielle's side and seize the high ground in public opinion first."

Neville was already prepared: "The tweet can be published at any time, and I've also contacted the media. Fox 11's 'Midnight Commentary' will invite Denise for a live interview."

Hawke said, "Okay... I'll contact Director Megan Taylor and have her invite some professionals to do a live connection."

Neville added, "According to Denise, when Mr. Dong was in Hollywood for those years, she wasn't the only Saint Gabrielle actress he had close relationships with. Once she gained momentum, she was confident she could persuade those people to follow suit."

There are too many cases of people getting rich this way. As long as the leader sets a good example, everyone else will rush to take a bite.

Hawke had planned this many times, saying, "Do it your way."

Neville responded and hung up the phone.

Hawke looked at Edward and said, "Contact the Mattesin Association and the National Association for the Protection of Minorities and ask them to provide assistance to Denise."

Edward asked, "Deniers has joined either of these companies?"

Hawke roughly said, "I just joined a few days ago. It's too troublesome for one person to go against President Dong. Let these two organizations go against President Dong."

Edward went to make a phone call.

Hawke called Jennifer and asked, "Have the victims been found? Are they willing to come forward and report to the police?"

Jennifer laughed and said, "We went to great lengths to find her in England. Bernardo has convinced her and is bringing her back to Los Angeles from Manchester."

Hawke said, "Then I'll wait for your good news."

The Epstein case involves not only Richard Lambton and Hillary Clinton, but also prominent Donald Party figures, including Joseph.

In the 1990s and early 2000s, Mr. Dong was a member of the Donald Party.

Especially more than a decade ago, Mr. Dong was a huge fan and lackey of both Zip-Dun and Sylvie, and gossip about Mr. Dong fawning over Zip-Dun spread like wildfire.

At that time, the term "close" was insufficient to describe the relationship between the two sides.

According to Epstein's confession, Mr. Dong visited St. James' Island more than once to accompany Laceyton in his pleasure-seeking activities.

If the leaders of the Donald Party are corrupt, how good can the Elephant Party be?
Epstein then revealed the name of the girl Mr. Dong liked best; that girl later returned to her hometown of Manchester. (End of Chapter)
