I'm building Gundams in America

Chapter 198 Wayne Trains the Dog (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Kevin looked dejected, and seemed quite tired and weary.

Are ICE agents impressive?

That's truly impressive.

However, this kind of prestige also comes at a price.

The entire court, various departments, and different political parties—so many people are watching closely.

The president has far too many enemies.

As the president's semi-private army, ICE faces equally astonishing resistance in implementing anti-illegal immigration policies.

Although they have the support of MAGA's core base, countless people, including those from the blue party, illegal immigrants, and Russians, are watching ICE closely, waiting to find fault with them and make them look foolish.

Moreover, there is competition within ICE as well.

The ICE Seattle Field Office oversees Washington, Oregon, and Alaska, and is considered the Northwest Regional Center of the Bureau of Repatriation and Deportation (ERO).

The St. Paul field office, which manages six states—Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota—is inherently more powerful than the Seattle field office.

The St. Paul Field Office has been making waves in Minnesota recently, arresting a large number of undocumented immigrants and conducting numerous deportations with great success.

And it dealt a heavy blow to the local Democratic Party forces.

It has even caught the president's attention.

Although ICE has a lot of internal funds, there is still a limit.

If one department takes too much, another department might have to be cut.

The president has always been very direct and straightforward in his work.

Whoever arrests the most illegal immigrants, handles the biggest cases, and gets the most money.

This custom is a direct descendant of the practice of scalping Native Americans to count and distribute money.

Kevin forced a smile and continued, "Speaking of which, after we arrested Lucas and Nick yesterday, we discovered that the FBI had been watching Nick for a while. If it weren't for your help in catching those two bastards, we in ICE would have been utterly humiliated if the FBI had made their move—"

"This could even give those who attack the president's immigration policies ammunition, saying that there are too many problems within ICE, and that not only will bonuses be affected, but salaries might also be impacted —"

Kevin looked rather anxious.

After joining ICE, he was constantly overspending due to the high signing bonuses and salary.

Mortgage payments, car loan payments, and various other expenses all require bonuses to fill the financial hole.

If the year-end bonus is indeed cancelled, he may face some cash flow problems.

If all else fails, the only option is to apply for an internal payday loan.

Moreover, he knew that there were quite a few colleagues in similar situations to him.

After all, most of the ICE agents recruited in the past two years were previously struggling low-level rednecks. Suddenly becoming high-paid individuals, they would initially engage in retaliatory spending.

Thinking of this, Kevin asked Wayne with some curiosity, "Manager Wayne, how exactly did you know that Lucas and Nick were traitors? I—I'm just a little curious—"

"Of course, if you find this question offensive, please forgive my ignorance. I also know that you are a powerful medium who can use supernatural powers—"

The information Wayne provided about Lucas and Nick was far too detailed. Although Kevin believed Wayne was a powerful medium, he didn't think Wayne could obtain such reliable information through "psychic abilities."

I believed it, but not entirely.

Wayne smiled faintly and said, "I was in King County Correctional Center a few days ago."

"7

Kevin suddenly realized, "I know about this! I even saw the video on TikTok. Apparently, you were framed and detained for several days, but thankfully you were ultimately acquitted—"

Wayne nodded and continued, "My fellow inmates in prison are quite respectful to me. A few Latino gang members from the CJNG told me some information, oh, that's pretty much how I got information about Nick."

Since Kevin has his own logic, giving him a self-consistent reason is safer than convincing him that he possesses near-omniscient power.

Most people in this world cannot accept the existence of an omniscient being, and if it were to be completely revealed, it would bring Wayne great danger.

For most people, omniscience is far more terrifying than blessings and healing.

Upon hearing this, Kevin suddenly understood and nodded, saying, "I see! No wonder you know so much about it—I think it's because you are a true saint, and thus, through God's arrangement, you have come to know the sins of these two fallen men—"

"I can even imagine how grateful those sinners will be when you go to prison. God, I really want to see that exhilarating scene with my own eyes—"

At this point, Kevin's eyes lit up, his intelligence once again taking over. He looked at Wayne eagerly and asked, "Supervisor Wayne, while you were in prison, did you hear any news from those Latino inmates about illegal immigrants? Especially those illegal immigrant gangs!"

"Right now, there's a lot of resistance towards our ICE field office in Washington state, especially in Seattle. If we can crack a case involving an illegal immigrant gang, it will definitely turn the tide, and it would be a major achievement, completely offsetting the negative impact of Lucas and Nick!"

"If that's the case, not only will the bonus not be canceled, it might even increase!"

Kevin became more and more eager as he spoke, and even began to fantasize about those wonderful days.

However, Wayne, who was standing in front of him, looked troubled and fell silent.

There's a chance!

Kevin immediately understood that Director Wayne definitely knew something, but just didn't want to say it.

Kevin gritted his teeth and knelt down in front of Wayne with a "plop".

He knew that this Mr. Wayne was truly a kind man who couldn't bear to see others suffer, and that the title of "saint" was well-deserved.

Anyway, he had already knelt down once when he begged the other party to join ICE, so kneeling down a few more times wouldn't be a big deal.

Besides, the other party is the head of ICE, and I'm just a small team leader. There's nothing shameful about kneeling before my department head.

After all, what happened inside the White House was even more outrageous; the Secretary of the Navy was even planning to build a Presidential-class battleship as a gift to the President.

It's 2026 already, and battleships are still around!

Not to mention the suggestion to carve a face of the current president on Mount Rushmore.

Compared to these things, what is kneeling?

Moreover, all of this is for America, to make America great again.

"Sir—" After mentally preparing himself, Kevin's eyes instantly welled up with tears as he said, "The ICE Seattle field office needs you right now, and the brothers all need you! You may not know this, but for example, I've always included bonuses in the budget. Everyone needs their annual bonus to pay the bills, otherwise—"

"Of course I know that revealing these things might provoke retaliation from those Latino gangs, but rest assured, that's before you join ICE."

"Now that you're a supervisory officer in ICE, no Latino gang would dare retaliate against you. Besides, our internal security level is extremely high. You don't need to tell me; just tell Supervisor Hunter."

"Next, brothers, as long as you have any leads, make sure you do the job cleanly and efficiently, leaving no loose ends. All the illegal immigrants involved will be dealt with!"

This action could be either deportation or being shot on the spot.

It depends on the level of resistance at the scene.

Of course, any resistance was reported by ICE agents, and the reports were also written by ICE agents.

Wayne sighed with a look of pity and said, "Kevin, of course I know that these loyal ICE agents also have their own difficulties. After all, true patriots often suffer all kinds of criticism and torment—"

What should you do if you want to use a pack of hunting dogs to catch a wild boar?

The best approach is to act like a vegetarian while subtly revealing the wild boar's plumpness, so that the hungry hunting dogs will willingly hand you their leashes and beg you to take them hunting.

To lure someone in at the first sign of trouble, one must feign indifference.

Sure enough, seeing Wayne's attitude soften somewhat, Kevin immediately took the initiative again, saying, "Manager Wayne, I knew you wouldn't stand by and watch the brothers suffer—and my rank is indeed insufficient to know this information. So, to narrow down the scope of those who know, I will report the relevant situation to Manager Hunter, who will then communicate with you. What do you think?"

Wayne sighed, nodded, and said, "I had no intention of killing; it was only for America—"

As he spoke, he closed his eyes with a hint of pain in his eyes.

Kevin immediately pulled out his phone, dialed Hunter's number, and quickly explained the situation to him.

Almost as soon as Kevin hung up, Wayne's phone rang. He pressed the answer button, and Hunter's urgent voice, tinged with excitement, came through: "Manager Wayne, the clues you provided are absolutely crucial! I've already reported your outstanding performance to Director Camilla, and she said she'll award you a special bonus. That's why your application was approved so quickly—"

"If we get more leads this time, I can help you apply for the reward again, and—and an internal badge, and even higher privileges!"

Hunter promised.

With the end of the year fast approaching and only two or three days left until 2026, if I can make a contribution at this crucial juncture, I'm sure I'll receive plenty of bonuses this year.

Conversely, it means a significant reduction!

Knowing Wayne's incredible abilities, Hunter became very nervous.

They were afraid Wayne would refuse.

Hearing that Wayne on the other end of the line remained silent, Hunter took a deep breath and continued, "Didn't you want to investigate your friend Jimmy last time? I can directly apply for internal investigation authority at the bureau chief level for you!"

"And another thing! You can now form a 10-person team. If the clues you provide this time are important enough, there will be an internal reward."

"I think, with your abilities and the title of honorary director, you have no problem overseeing two 10-person teams. Director Camilla will definitely approve it!"

Director Camilla also needs performance to secure her position in the ICE system and climb the ranks.

After all, the current ICE is too special, as everything is dependent on the current president.

What if the president steps down in a few years?

Only by climbing high enough can you have more opportunities and security.

Finally, amid Hunter's anxious anticipation, Wayne's sigh came from the other end of the phone: "Alas, Controller Hunter, you've misunderstood. I'm not doing this for any special treatment, but for the greatness of America again, and for the brothers in ICE to receive more bonuses."

Hunter quickly said, "Of course, Mr. Wayne, I already felt your noble character during the Lucas and Nick cases." Wayne continued, "The clues I provided indicate that the criminals are too ruthless. This involves a powerful transnational drug trafficking group, and I am also worried about whether ICE has the ability to suppress them."

"These undocumented immigrants belong to CJNG, which is CJNG's core organization in Seattle."

Hunter's eyes lit up instantly!

great merit!

An incredible feat!
