After watching the church leave, Seders cheered up and ordered to his men: Use a computer to analyze the figure of the thief and compare his behavior to see if anything can be found. Call and ask if William Devon Hill was the one last night.
After leaving the hotel, I asked for the results of Ben Gates' interrogation for half an hour, and finally issued a wanted warrant to Ian's group. I wanted to find Ian's group within one day.
Got it, sir.
Seders was very worried, while William was still lying on the bed, fast asleep.
Yesterday he used the archives phone number to call the scavenger just to make it more difficult for the Secret Service to trace him in the future.
Carrying a painting bucket found in the archives, he deliberately walked half-lowered into the cameras outside the archives in order to make the Secret Service think that everything that had happened before was to cover up the thief who had been hiding in the archives.
William was very confident that the suspicion on him would be lifted soon, and maybe he would be able to move freely after today.
Back in Washington, Siders listened to the reports from his men, holding the information given by Lily in his hand. It said that the Pittsburgh police discovered the bodies of Ian and a retired archives security guard yesterday.
Based on what he knew, Sides already had a rough idea in his mind. He was now very sure that the person who stole the Declaration of Founding was probably eyeing Ben Gates a few years or more than ten years ago.
Maybe Ian and the people behind the scenes were originally a group but were silenced in the end. Since a retired security guard was bribed, there must be other traitors in the National Archives. As long as this traitor is found and prosecuted, they may be able to track them down.
The man behind the scenes.
William's door was rang at around 12 noon, and when he heard the butler's voice, William rubbed his face in confusion, got up and opened the door. As soon as he walked into the living room of the hotel suite, he saw a haggard-looking Seders standing there.
Is something wrong? Director Seders.
As soon as Seders returned to Washington, he asked his subordinates to confirm that William had not come out since he entered the room, and the cameras in the corridor also proved this.
Seeing William's sleepy look now, Sides' suspicion of him was reduced to the lowest level.
He came in person this time with the intention of making friends with William, but he was about to be out of luck. He thought that if he made friends with William, he might be able to help him someday.
So Seders tried his best to put on a kind smile on his tired face, "Good afternoon, William, I'm here to formally inform you that you are free, congratulations."
Oh, it’s true that a surprised smile appeared on William’s face. He didn’t expect that the suspicion could be lifted so quickly, so the surprised look on his face was not fake at all.
What happened, Director Seders? After William paused the meeting, he thought of something and said in surprise: God, you caught the killer so quickly? Congratulations to you, Director Seders.
He said congratulations, but his expression couldn't be more fake. Sides could clearly feel that William was looking at him with disgust in his eyes.
This made Seders' face darken. It seemed that some of his previous actions had offended him severely. Now it is not so easy to win over William. He sighed inwardly and shook his head: No, but we have definitely removed the suspicion on you.
I can't tell you the specific situation. Sorry, William, I have something else to do. I wish you good luck.
Oh, I'm leaving now. Well, thank you for coming in person, Director Seders. Goodbye. William shook hands with Seders and watched Seders and the others hurried away.
Returning to the bedroom and closing the door, William waved his fist and jumped up excitedly. He was finally able to stay away from this whirlpool. Judging from the situation, the back-up tactics he did played a very big role. Now the people from the Secret Service must be looking for the pretender John.
Vic's man and last night's thief.
With the Declaration of Founding in his hands, the clues for others to find the treasure have been cut off. Now only William knows where the treasure is.
Unfortunately, Abigail is under investigation and it is not appropriate for the two to meet at this time. This makes William, who is excited, unable to find anyone to work out with.
He took out the cell phone that he had sent a message to Winston last time, opened it and saw a text message from Winston, saying that John Wick had returned to the Continental Hotel to hand over the task, and asked William when he could come to the hotel to hand over the task and fulfill it.
Complete the contract.
Since there was no way to meet Abigail and there was no point in staying in Washington, William decided to return to New York.
He asked the suite butler to book a private jet for him. At 4 p.m., William stepped out of the private jet and got into the car where Caron, the lobby manager of the Continental Hotel, came to pick him up. After getting in the car, William said: Caron, is Winston in the hotel?
?
Caron nodded and said: Yes, Mr. Devonshire, Mr. Winston has been at the hotel all the time. He has been waiting for you for a long time.
Well, let's go,
The car did not stop in front of the Continental Hotel, but drove into the underground parking lot of a building next to the hotel. Caron took William into a coded door. After walking for a few minutes, William saw an elevator.
After Caron pressed the password and fingerprint, the elevator opened. He walked into the elevator and said to William: Mr. Devonshire, if you want to see Mr. Winston in the future, you can use this elevator. This is a private elevator, leading directly to Mr. Winston.
residence, and only Mr. Winston and I know it,
There were more than a dozen automatic fire points placed in the passage just now. Anyone who breaks in will be beaten to a pulp. You can enter your fingerprint later.
Listening to this, William thought, it seemed that Winston really regarded him as one of his own. He had been told about such a hidden passage. Could it be that the old man Winston really regarded him as his descendant?
William's suspicious character emerged again at this time. I don't know where his character came from. In his previous life, he was an ordinary person.
Perhaps he did this after learning that his grandfather was an old secret service agent for decades and that there were family secrets, some of which even his mother could not tell.
When William got out of the elevator, he saw Winston standing outside the elevator with a smile on his face. After seeing William, he hugged William happily. Is the problem solved?
William said with a smile: The small matter has been solved.
Let's go, let's finish things first. John Wick is waiting for you. After everything is done, you can have a nice meal with me. I can't even remember the last time I had a meal with someone. I really miss the time we had together.
Henry, your grandmother, your mother, and you were living in London.
Walking into the living room, Winston asked: Forget about that, I want to drink something. I heard that you like drinking whiskey. I have Jack Daniel's 1948 vintage here. Do you want some?
When William heard that it was Jack Daniel's from 1948, he immediately became interested and nodded hurriedly.
Winston smiled and took out a bottle of Jack Daniel's from the wine cellar. He poured two glasses for William and himself. Winston asked: Do you want to add water or ice?
William hurriedly shook his head, "nyi, only pure people can drink out the original fragrance in the wine." Taking the wine glass from Winston's hand, William took a sip, "Hmm," that's good. He used to drink Irish whiskey.
I didn’t expect Laomei’s whiskey to taste so good to him. It seems that I will have to buy some aged Jack Daniel’s on the market in the future.
The two drank whiskey and talked about some embarrassing things about William's childhood, and some things that Winston and Henry had done together before.
While we were chatting, we heard a knock on the door. Cuaron came in to report, Sir, John Wick is already waiting for you. Do you think we should go there now?
Winston nodded with a smile and said, "I'll take care of the rest. We'll have dinner soon."
