Living in North America, working from 9 to 5

Chapter 83 Gordon's killing intent

The tax storm was settled, and colleagues finally put their minds at ease. Everyone was happy for Roy and there was warm applause.

In such an environment, Irina kissed Roy on the cheek in public, and instantly, booing and whistling were heard in the police station.

While kissing Roy, Irina glanced at Gordon who was standing in the corridor. Their eyes met and Irina smiled indifferently at Gordon.

She blew a breath of warm fragrance into Roy's ear and whispered, "See you tonight..."

After saying that, Irina picked up the handbag and folder on the table and turned to walk out of the police station. When she reached the glass door, she turned back and blew Roy a kiss, then looked in the direction of Gordon again.

The whistles got louder...

outside,

The roar of the engine sounded, then faded away.

Dai Lin came to Roy and whispered:

"The director wants you to go to his office."

Roy nodded.

Under the envious gazes of colleagues all over the company, Roy and Dai Lin went to Gordon's office together.

Outside the office, Dai Lin opened the door for Roy.

Roy enters.

"sit down."

Roy sat opposite Gordon.

Gordon stared into Roy's eyes and asked:
"Irina is your girlfriend now?"

Roy smiled and shook his head, explaining:

"No, we just have a paid relationship..."

When Irina came to the police station, Roy naturally anticipated Gordon's reaction, and also thought that Gordon would definitely look for him afterwards.

The reason why Roy was fearless was that he was sure that Gordon didn't know yet that he knew about his cooperative relationship with Irina, or it could be said to be an employment relationship.

As long as Gordon didn't know Roy knew Irina's true identity, Roy could easily find an excuse to get away with it.

As for Gordon, Roy just had to play dumb.

Gordon continued to stare into Roy's eyes and asked:
"What's the loan agreement?"

Roy smiled and explained:

"It all started with Alexander Mahone..."

Gordon was stunned:
"Alexander Mahone? The senior FBI agent?"

Roy nodded:

"Yes, because the last time the undercover agent died in my hands, he has always been very dissatisfied with me. He has secretly followed me and investigated me several times. He also mentioned Irene's matter to me. He has always wanted to report my tax problems."

Gordon frowned slightly and nodded thoughtfully.

Roy continued:

"Then I became defensive. It just so happened that Irina came to my house the night before the property fee incident. I thought, since she is very rich, I might as well ask her to help me write a loan agreement. If Ma Hong really reports my tax problems to the IRS, I will have a way to deal with it."

Gordon nodded.

Roy said:

"The first person I thought of was you, Director. But then I thought, I can't bring the tax issue to you. After all, your salary is not high, so I found Irina."

This was a very reasonable explanation. Gordon smiled, took out two cigarettes from the cigarette box, handed one to Roy, and said with a smile:

"Indeed, you did nothing wrong, but... next time if you encounter a crisis or danger, you must tell me immediately, you know? When you were questioned by the IRS just now, I called their director."

Roy opened his eyes wide and said:

"So the call that the IRS auditor received was arranged by you?"

Gordon smiled and nodded:

"Yes, even if you don't have a loan contract, you will be fine, so don't worry, I am behind you, and I will always stand behind you."

Roy showed a grateful expression:
"Thank you, Director... I will definitely discuss this with you next time..."

After a moment's thought, Gordon asked:

"According to what you said, it was Mahone who reported you?"

Roy shook his head and said:

"I don't think so. There is another person who could be a possibility."

"Is there another person?"

Gordon raised his eyebrows, and then the two of them said in unison:
"Kane Ghiberi..."

Gordon's face suddenly turned gloomy.

Then he said:

"Well, go ahead. There is no problem with the handling of the case in front of Walmart yesterday. Then take administrative leave. Seven days, is it enough?"

"Enough." Roy stood up, turned and left Gordon's office.

As soon as I reached the door, I heard Gordon's reminder:

"Roy, you have to be careful about Irina. People who play with psychology can easily manipulate young people like you. There are some things that cannot be known to anyone..."

"Please rest assured, Director, I'm only doing this for the money..."

[Lying: Lying ability +1]

Gordon, who stayed in the office, took two long puffs of his cigarette. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he was thinking, damn Kane Gibler...

Gordon picked up the encrypted phone and dialed a mysterious number.

That night...

Roy received an invitation call from Irina.

The two met at the Hilton Hotel.

It’s still the presidential suite.

Roy just entered the lobby of the Hilton Hotel.

Two figures followed closely.

These two people, one is Kane and the other is his subordinate Bill.

"What is he doing in a five-star hotel?" Kane frowned.

"Do you want to meet someone?" Bill said.

"Yeah, that makes sense, let's keep up..."

Two people in plain clothes also entered the hotel lobby.

At this moment, Roy just entered the elevator...

Arriving in front of the elevator, Kane looked at the numbers going up.

电梯分别在13、21、25、31、37、55停顿。

Bill asked Kane:
"Why don't you follow him and see which room he enters?"

"You're going to run up dozens of flights of stairs, idiot?"

Bill: “…”

Kane then went to the front desk, took out his police badge and a photo, and wanted the receptionist to identify the person in the photo and tell him which room he had gone to.

With so many people coming and going in the hotel lobby, the front desk staff naturally won't pay attention to everyone. As for inquiring about customer reservation information, it is impossible without a paper cooperation letter.

The Hilton Hotel is not an ordinary motel on the street. Anyone can come and check it at will by showing their police badge.

A letter of cooperation is not something that can be issued at his level. Kane is not stupid enough to go to his superior's superior in the middle of the night for personal matters.

He could only leave in disappointment...

As for waiting in the parking lot outside overnight.

Only Ma Hong could do such a thing.

……

That night, Roy gained a lot of attributes.

At midnight the next day...

Roy parked the Ford SUV in front of the ShowGirl Club.

As soon as I got off the car, two Night Gang members came to meet me.

The Night Gang boss Rafar came out to greet him personally, and Oscar prepared the best seat for Roy.

Isabella, who has stunning legs and is wearing a sexy dance dress, has been waiting in the booth for a long time.

There were signs on the tables of several nearby booths saying "No Guests Allowed". Six members of the Night Gang were guarding there and no one was allowed to sit down.

Seeing Roy coming, Isabella quickly stood up to greet him and helped Roy to the main seat on the sofa. For Roy, the volume of the live music was lowered by 30%.

Although some individual tourists had some opinions, when they saw the ferocious gang members, they still shrank their necks, thinking that if they were to be intimidated for a while, the world would be fine.

Isabella poured Roy a fifth of a neat whiskey.

Roy drank it all...
