American Tax Officer

Gustav, though he said he couldn't do it, was clearly wavering in his stance. It was just that he felt embarrassed to be the only one to sell out, seeing how resolutely Biden had refused.

David naturally saw through this and leaned back slightly, saying with a playful smile, "What if I return the money to you, and also your freedom?"

"What did you say, our freedom too?"

At that, Gustav's expression changed, and he immediately pressed, eager for an answer.

In his view, ever since Dieter got involved with the assassination, it was inevitable that the entire group would meet a bad end. Everyone would have to suffer the consequences! Exclusive tales at m-vl-empyr.

Even if he was now willing to testify and stand out to accuse Dieter, at best that would only be considered a minor meritorious deed; he was certainly still going to end up behind bars.

But who could have thought that David was now talking about giving them back their freedom? Could it be that they really weren't going to pursue the assassination?

David said, "I know you didn't directly participate in the assassination attempt against me, so I'm a fair man. I'll only go after Dieter and his associates, not you!"

"So you're saying, if we testify and stand out to accuse Dieter, we can keep the money in our accounts, and we don't have to go to jail?"

"Yes."

"Can you guarantee it?"

David smiled and replied, "If you think I can't guarantee it, who else do you believe can?"

"Fine, if you can guarantee we won't go to jail, I'm willing to do as you ask!"

As the saying goes, life is indeed precious, love even more so, but for freedom, both can be cast aside!

Now that David had promised not to send them to prison and furthermore not to freeze their funds…

So forget about Dieter, Gustav felt even his own parents were worth betraying!

David turned to Biden and asked, "What about you? Will you make the same choice as Gustav, or choose to keep Dieter company in prison?"

At this moment, Biden's face was fluctuating between shades of green and purple. Internally, he was caught in a fierce struggle.

To say he was loyal to Dieter would be an overstatement.

He was merely angry about David ruining their Lake District ventures and chasing them like rats through the streets.

And regarding David's recent offer to return their money, to tell the truth, he found it somewhat insulting.

After all, if one ended up in prison, what use would all that money be? Where could you spend it while locked up?

But if their money was returned and they weren't sent to prison, that changed everything.

David glanced at his watch and said, "I'm short on time, I'll give you ten seconds to think it over. If you don't agree, then let's forget it..."

The Four Heavenly Kings had already been dealt with, three of them, that is, along with Sapir and Iman, not to mention the confiscated illicit money and property. The case against Dieter now had a complete chain of evidence.

Even without Biden, it wouldn't make much of a difference.

When the timer reached the seventh second, Biden's face hardened, and he said through gritted teeth, "Fine, I agree!"

In the face of freedom and money, what was the so-called loyalty and brotherhood worth?

Besides, Dieter had never treated him like a brother. To people who weren't Native Americans, they were almost no different from animals in the eyes of someone like Dieter!

So for Biden, there was simply no reason to continue risking his life for Dieter when faced with the prospect of money and freedom.

David stood up and gave a few instructions to Simmons, then returned to his office.

About half an hour later,

Simmons walked in, putting several written testimonies on David's desk, saying, "All three of them have finished writing."

David picked them up, perused them briefly, found no issues, and then took out a stack of documents from a cabinet underneath.

These were testimonies, criminal information, and other materials like photographs given by Sapir, Iman, and other key members of the Ditter Group.

After compiling everything together, David stood up and walked out towards the chief's office, knocking on the door.

"Come in."

David entered and placed the files on William's desk, saying, "Chief, here is the complete evidence for the Dieter case, all ready to go!"

"Complete evidence?"

William was initially surprised, then quickly asked, "Didn't you say that the three Kings hadn't been caught yet?"

David slapped his forehead and replied, "Right, just earlier, over at the main district..."

Because he had been so busy, he had planned to report everything together once it was fully resolved, but he had forgotten about it until William mentioned it.

"Are you saying they were caught in the main district and Inspector Keanu even personally came to talk to you?"

William didn't focus on the fact that the three Kings had already been taken down; instead, he was keenly aware that Keanu's visit seemed intriguing.

"That's right, Chief. They were apprehended by the Main District Sub-Bureau, which sort of puts us in their debt, so I made a deal with him..."

David then explained the matter regarding the three big cases.

When William heard about the deal related to the three big cases, he was stunned for quite a while before coming back to his senses and said with a hint of approval, "Since each of these three cases involves more than millions of US dollars, and they've agreed to give us a 60% cut, we might as well get involved..."

Lake District was indeed lacking in big cases lately. If they could get a share of the Main District Sub-Bureau's action, it would help Lake District Sub-Bureau continue its high-performance streak, which William found quite agreeable.
