Chapter 74 Default chapters [30]

After seeing Amos away, Li Mu immediately arranged someone to investigate Amos.

In fact, after Will served as deputy mayor of Springfield, there was nothing he could hide from Li Mu in Springfield. Amos is currently living in the Celtic Hotel, which is now a suspicion from the owner to the cleaner.

Amos was quite careful. If he went out by himself, he would keep someone in his suite and not allow strangers to enter, even if the waiter wanted to go in and clean.

However, some things can still be inferred, such as the amount of meal orders every day. Li Mu easily concluded that there was at least one person in Amos' room.

Perhaps this person provided Amos with that proof.

"—Amos' secretary Tommy Malz sent a telegram to Washington today. The recipient was former Attorney General Ebenezer Hall. Because Tommy Malz personally used the transmitter, we didn't know the content of the telegram-" Ford Benjamin was responsible for monitoring Amos and reported to Li Mu every day.

Ebenezer Hall, another poor man who was abandoned by mainstream society.

From 1869 to 1870, Ebenezer Hall served as Attorney General, and in terms of year, Ebenezer Hall was Amos' predecessor.

Hall was one of the few leaders who appointed subordinates based on his performance rather than his personal loyalty to his superiors. In order to ensure judicial justice, Hall selected nine newcomers with outstanding abilities and integrity to serve as newly established federal judges. This caused dissatisfaction among the politicians and lawmakers who wanted to put their own people in these positions. In the end, Hall, who was isolated and helpless, left sadly without the support of the president.

Although he was dismissed, Ebenezer Hall has a high reputation in the American judicial system. The current Supreme Justice of the Federal Court, Salmon Chase, was promoted by Ebenezer Hall.

Unfortunately, the name Salmon Chase is on the list given to Li Mu by Burnside, which means that the justice has been pulled into the water by Amis. If Amos reaches Salmon Chase, Amos will probably not get what he wants.

"Wait - Tommy Maltz, find a way to arrange for this person to meet me." Li Mu has an impression of this Tommy Maltz. If Li Mu remembers correctly, this guy should be one of Amis' informants.

"Okay, no problem. Amos often stays in the suite and doesn't come out. Tommy Maldz handles many things. It's easy to meet Tommy Maldz, but it's probably impossible for Tommy Maldz to come here. After all, Tommy Maldz cannot disappear for too long." Ford Benjamin was sure to arrange for Li Mu to meet Tommy Maldz.

"That's okay, I'll go to the Celtic Hotel-" Li Mu did not hesitate. Regardless of whether Tommy Malz had been pulled into the water by Amis, Li Mu had to figure out what kind of trump card Amos had.

"Haha, that's not necessary. Just go to Wales Street. I'll take two people to tie Tommy Malz over to ensure that God will not know it-" Ford Benjamin was confident that after dealing with the Amis family, Ford Benjamin had completely turned black.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Ford Benjamin drove a carriage into Will's mansion on Wales Street.

Two men in black came out of the carriage holding Tommy Maltz hostage. There was bloodshot at the corner of Tommy Maltz's mouth. It seemed that she had suffered a little just now, so she did not resist at all. The man in black allowed him to take him into Li Mu's office.

"Tomy - I'm so happy to see you here." Li Mu sat in the dark corner of the room, playing with a python craft pistol in his hand, looking at Tommy Maltz's eyes as he measured it, without any expression on his face.

"Reim, what do you want to do? You sent someone to kidnap me, you are committing a crime!" Tommy Maltz did not understand the situation. After seeing Li Mu, Tommy Maltz tried to have dignity.

"Yes, I'm just a crime, but I think you shouldn't care about this, you should worry about yourself." Li Mu did not deny it, he was simply fearless.

"Hmph--" Tommy Maldz didn't respond, and his eyes looked at Li Mu were full of hatred, but it was not difficult to find hidden fear.

Since Li Mu has revealed his identity without any concealment, the situation facing Tommy Marz is worrying. If Li Mu can't get what he wants, he wouldn't say that Li Mu would kill him.

"You know what I'm interested in, so don't waste time telling me what Amos knows, you'll get this-" Li Mu casually put a check with a denomination of one thousand dollars in front of Tommy Marz, then shook off the pistol's runner, took out a bullet from the magazine and placed it on the check: "Or-you'll get this!"

A thousand dollars and a bullet, a very simple multiple-choice question. If Tommy Malz had betrayed Amos, it wouldn't take too long to make a choice.

I have to say that Tommy Maltz's psychological quality is really not very good. As soon as Li Mu put the bullet and the check together, the sweat on Tommy Maltz's head oozed out at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his body trembled as if he was sick, and he couldn't stand even if he stood up.

"What is your answer?" Li Mu stared at Tommy Maltz without dragging on it, his eyes as if he could see through Tommy Maltz's soul.

"Ignaz-Bloom, a man named Ignaz-Bloom-" Tommy Maltz was frightened, his voice was a little choked, and he explained intermittently.

It was a complete accident, and even the cause was a bit bloody. Ignaz Bloom was Amis' housekeeper. When Ford Benjamin was ordered to act, Ignaz Bloom discovered and recognized Ford Benjamin. Ford Benjamin did not take his anger on others. After dealing with the Amis' family, Ford Benjamin did not stay at the scene, nor did he check if there were any fish that missed the net. As a result, Ignaz Bloom was lucky to save his life.

Like Li Mu, Amis was quite generous to the people around him. Ignaz Bloom had been favored by Amis. On the night when Amis had an accident, Ignaz Bloom did not dare to come forward because of fear, but ended up in deep regret afterwards. At this moment, Amos, who wanted to figure out what was going on, found Ignaz Bloom, so Ignaz Bloom decided to become Amos' witness and accused Ford Benjamin of murdering Amis' family.

"Ebenezer Hall is Mr. Amos' old friend. Mr. Amos hopes to get the help of Ebenezer Hall. Ebenezer Hall recommended Mr. Amos's Justice Richard Wesley to Mr. Amos--" Tommy Malz continued to explain and sold Amos completely.

Speaking of Springfield District Court Justice Richard Wesley, this person is also on the list Burnside gave to Li Mu. In this way, Ebenezer Hall is not very good at judging people. The candidate recommended to Amos is also a borer who has been pulled into the water by Amys.

"Okay, okay, go back and have a good sleep, get this check, and if there is any other news, just inform anyone at the Celtic Hotel that you have received my friendship now, and you should be happy about it, because your wife and children don't have to worry about crying for you anymore, and you will eventually be reunited." Li Mu comforted Tommy Malz, who was already extremely frightened, and inadvertently used a threatening tone.

"Rim, Mr. Reim, I have told you everything I know. Please do not hurt my family. I promise that if there is any other news, I will notify you immediately-" Tommy Malz begged.

"Don't worry, they're very safe-" Li Mu didn't want to talk nonsense to Tommy Maltz, and waved Ford Benjamin to send Tommy Maltz back.

To be honest, although Tommy Maldz chose to cooperate with Li Mu, Li Mu would not look down on Tommy Maldz at first glance. On the contrary, Li Mu despised Tommy Maldz's character.

Amos is also blind. He raised such an unfaithful guy. Even raising a dog is better than raising such a person. At least the dog will not betray the owner just because of a bone.

After seeing Tommy Malz off, Li Mu turned around and went to Will to discuss countermeasures.

"Amos——" Wil also had a complicated expression while muttering this name.

Like Li Mu, Will never think of himself as a good person, but people always have a good side. When he sees Amos launching a desperate counterattack against an interest group in pursuit of justice, anyone will feel resentful.

"Let him sue, there is no result anyway, maybe the result can calm him down-" Will did not take this matter to heart. Will and Li Mu were not fighting alone. In Washington, Will and Li Mu have a huge number of allies, and Amos does not pose any threat: "Prepare these two days. Mr. Mayor wants to have dinner with you and discuss how to promote the Kuobin Reservoir project. You'd better be prepared and start construction immediately in the spring. Mr. Mayor attaches great importance to Kuobin Reservoir. If this project is successful, it will become the mayor's political achievement project."

Tsk, Will has made great progress. He even knows the "political achievement project". It seems that Will, who has become deputy mayor, is also keeping pace with the times.

"How does it feel to be a deputy mayor? Do you feel like you are in charge of municipal construction? I remember that you seem to be in charge of municipal construction, right? This is a good position. How long will it take for you to become a millionaire?" Li Mu joked casually, and didn't take Will, the deputy mayor seriously.
