"Kimmy Byrne, you mean the First Assistant Chief of Police in Los Angeles? It's him!" Ada looked surprised, clearly not expecting a deputy chief to do something like this!

"It's basically confirmed," Chen An said, secretly giving the order that Kimi Bourne be arrested once the evidence was conclusive.

Chenlong and his team can then take action and eliminate Mirad, this potential threat. He absolutely cannot be allowed to live!

........

Meanwhile, Millard also learned that Chen An had been taken away by the police, and his face turned grim. How did they know he was going to make a move?

Did Chen An plant a spy next to him, or have he been secretly watching him all along? Now that the other party has been brought to the police station, and with Chief Brandon vouching for him, there really is nothing he can do with his authority.

As for consulting the FBI director, that was even more impossible. Although the director's authority was several levels higher than Brandon's, he couldn't just meet with him whenever he wanted, and the reason for the arrest was also very far-fetched.

Just as Millard was fretting, the landline in front of him rang!

He picked up the phone and put it to his ear. Kimi Byrne's voice came through immediately: "Millard, Brandon has found out about me. Daniel can't be allowed to live. Send someone to take care of him."

"That would break the chain of evidence, and we would be safe."

Millard frowned. "Daniel, which second-in-command is the one following you? Where is he now?"

"Yes, you need to hurry. Brandon is definitely looking for him too. I can't get through to him on the phone. He's probably already escaped. But that's not safe. Only the dead can keep quiet forever."

Upon hearing this, Millard said, "Alright, I'll send someone to take care of Daniel, but you'll have to do me a favor after this. I need to interrogate that Mark Ann personally."

There was a moment of surprise on the other end, followed by a reply, "Okay, no problem!"

"We absolutely cannot fail this time; it concerns the future of both of us!" After saying this, Kimi Byrne hung up the phone.

Seeing this, Millard quickly summoned the other agents and ordered them to investigate Daniel's whereabouts with all their might, and to get there before Brandon and the others.

This time, he will take action personally.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the Nancheng District Police Station, Chen An was leaning back in his chair playing a match-3 game when he suddenly heard a noise outside the door and looked up.

Brandon was seen leading several subordinates into the police station.

"Good evening, Director Brandon," Chen An said, gesturing with his hand.

Hearing the commotion, Brandon turned around and saw Chen An. He stepped forward and asked, "Is Chen An alright?"

Chen An shook his head. "It's alright. Luckily, Hogg and the others arrived in time. Otherwise, I would have been taken away by those FBI agents, and I might not have even made it out unharmed."

"It's good that you're alright." Brandon smiled. "Come with us, we've got a lead on tonight's culprit."

A subordinate behind him spoke up, "Chief, this gentleman doesn't seem to be from the police station. Wouldn't allowing him to participate in an internal meeting like this lead to a leak?"

Brandon waved his hand. "No, they provided clues and help, and might even offer different opinions."

"Would Chen An like to listen?"

When Brandon asked him, he nodded without hesitation, "Of course, I don't have anything else to do anyway, might as well listen."

Chen An then followed Brandon and they arrived at a meeting room in the blink of an eye, where everyone took their seats.

He also found a place to sit down.

Ida and Hogg sat on either side of him.

Brandon quickly engaged in a heated discussion with everyone, listing everything they had found in a short period of time.

Chen An listened quietly and heard a familiar name—Daniel. It seemed that the person who called him that night might be this person.

"Based on the clues here, it seems that everything will be clear once we catch Daniel. Does anyone know where he is now?" Brandon asked, looking around.

Everyone present shook their heads.

"Chief Brandon, this Daniel is probably planning to run away. I tried calling him, but his phone is off and I can't get through."

"That means you have something to hide." Brandon's expression turned fierce. He never expected that the guy who had been attacking his daughter was his subordinate.

I seem to have some impression of Daniel. After all, among all the second-level sergeants in the entire police department, he is the only one who is addicted to gambling and has a huge amount of gambling debts. He is basically facing dismissal soon.

Chen An slowly raised his hand as he listened. "Director Brandon, I have something to say."

"Speak, Chen An, don't be shy."

Upon hearing this, Chen An slowly spoke, "If this Daniel really knows something, I think you should take action to arrest him now, because the person behind the scenes doesn't want him to live either, and is definitely looking for him."

Upon hearing this, Brandon and the others exchanged glances, finding it quite reasonable.

"Chen An, you're right, we have to find this Daniel first!" Ada said, picking up the phone to contact someone to investigate Daniel's whereabouts. As long as he was still in Los Angeles, he would definitely leave some clues!

Brandon added, "Give the order: deploy all Los Angeles police forces to investigate and arrest Daniel. And do it quickly!"

"Meeting adjourned!"

Upon hearing this, some people got up and left, while others immediately made phone calls. Because of Chen An's words, those present stopped discussing verbally and began to take action.

The sooner it's resolved, the better, to give the citizens of Los Angeles an explanation and to achieve a remarkable accomplishment. But if it's delayed and they can't find out, they'll also be put on paid leave, making it difficult for them to advance in their careers.

Brandon then looked at Chen An, "Chen An, since you've thought of this, do you have any way to find Daniel's whereabouts?"

Chen An looked surprised. "No way, Chief Brandon, with the entire Los Angeles police system and surveillance capabilities, do you really need me?!"

"This will all take time, and it would be best if you could find it sooner."

Listen to what Brandon said.

Chen An smiled, coughed, and said, "Chief Brandon, if I help the police find Daniel, is there any reward?"

Brandon was taken aback for a moment, then laughed. "Of course! Not only will you get a police department medal of honor, but there's also a bonus, and I'll personally cover the extra costs. How about it?"

"Then there's no problem. I'll have my friend look for it, but I can't guarantee whether he'll be able to find it," Chen An said.

"It's okay, just do your best."

"Hogg, let's get moving too." Ada looked at Hogg and said, but Brandon stopped her as she was about to get up.

"Ida, you can't go. It's too dangerous, and I won't be able to explain it to your grandfather. Let Hogg go instead."
