Shelley and Peart stood on either side of the car, and everyone present was focused on the Secret Service car, wondering what these two official and powerful figures in the Cape District were talking about.

After getting in the car, Holt said to Luke: "I am also following orders, even if you threaten me with my family, the Sheriff's Department will not let go of the Crazy Ax Gang.

If I am transferred, someone will naturally take my place."

Luke looked outside and said to Holt in a relaxed tone: "Director, look at the people outside, look at their expressions. They all know that every word you and I say here can make people feel uncomfortable."

Many people here will not survive tomorrow.

Even you and me.

You have your responsibilities, and I have mine. On the first day I took office, I watched you destroy the Crazy Ax Party, how should I manage my subordinates?"

"The Crazy Ax Party is an illegal gang, they collude..."

"Director Holt, since I'm talking to you here alone, don't tell me those false things. The Ax Gang is an illegal gang, and the people who follow your Sheriff's Department are not necessarily clean.

Today you use this excuse to deal with the Crazy Ax Party, and tomorrow I can use the same excuse to deal with the people below you.

If all the people working below are killed, who will work as coolies to transport goods for the gentlemen in the wealthy areas?"

Holt said alertly: "What are you talking about? I don't understand. What does this have to do with the gentlemen in the rich area?"

"Holt, the last detective of the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau died in a very strange way! The first task given to me by the eldest princess was to investigate the cause of his death, but I know that the water in Raging Waves City is very deep, and I don't want to put my own life at risk.

Life goes in.

I just want to hang out for a year or two and then be transferred.

Therefore, I hope you won’t push me too hard. Wouldn’t it be nice to let the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau maintain the status quo?”

Luke's words made Holt think.

The higher-ups hope that he can take back all control of the Cape Port Terminal, but they also do not want to affect the normal transshipment of contraband.

The reaction of the Secret Intelligence Bureau of Haijiao District today is to make it clear that the Kuang Ax Party will be defended to the death. Once the Public Security Bureau destroys the Kuang Ax Party today, the Secret Intelligence Bureau will retaliate and eliminate one of its subordinates tomorrow. Both sides will really kill each other like this.

Everyone working below was killed.

Gentlemen in wealthy areas will not send their own people to transport goods.

At that time, this responsibility will still be shouldered by the Haijiao District Public Security Department.

Moreover, if you push someone into a hurry, it will harm your family.

If the new detective is willing to maintain the status quo... Although it is difficult to explain to his superiors, he is not unable to do so.

The new inspector of the Secret Service expressed his willingness to cooperate.

As for whether to cooperate sincerely or just pay lip service, that is a matter for the future.

"Do you have any suggestions? Even if I am willing to let the Crazy Ax Party go, people outside may not be willing to do so."

Seeing Director Holt relent, Luke said: "On my first day in office, I am not familiar with the Axe-Crazy Ax Party, and I have no intention of protecting them. But I must take care of the attitudes of my subordinates. You should

I know Black Mamba and Pisco are not that easy to control."

Holt looked at the two people standing outside the car, agreed with Luke's point of view, and even said with some sympathy: "These two are the guys who give all the Cape District Secret Service detectives a headache."

"Since you understand my difficulty, I suggest that... the Secret Intelligence Bureau and the Public Security Bureau evacuate from here at the same time, and do not directly send people to participate in this incident. You and I restrain the people below us at the same time not to cause trouble during the day, and at night

Just do it according to your abilities.

Director, what do you think?"

Luke's suggestion was to avoid direct conflict between the Secret Service and the Sheriff's Department and limit the fight to the level of gang competition.

If the war does not burn upward, it will not affect the people at the top.

Especially the families of upper-level personnel.

Holt doesn't know how the Secret Service found his family that he had hidden so secretly. Now he can only minimize the risk.

"I hope you can keep your promise."

Luke stretched out his hand to Holt: "I should say this, I am the person who least wants to make things worse. If we evacuate early, the terminal can operate normally. It must have been squeezed a lot after it was delayed for so long.

goods."

Holt and Luke shook hands lightly before pushing the door and getting out of the car.

Luke rolled down the window and said to Shelley: "Inform our people to retreat!"

Shelley asked: "Evacuate now? What will the Sheriff's Department do?"

"Withdraw together..."

The police officers surrounding the entrance of the Ax Headquarters evacuated in an orderly manner under Holt's order.

Shelley also waved his hand immediately, signaling the special agents of the Rangers to withdraw.

The motorcade honked its horn all the way and returned to the Secret Intelligence Bureau with great momentum as if it had won a battle.

As soon as they reached the second floor, a Secret Service clerk said to Luke: "Inspector, an old woman who calls herself Hilm is waiting over there. She said you asked her to come and that she was helping her.

Looking for my son."

Luke looked at the clerk and saw that the old woman selling hot dogs was standing there timidly.

Seeing Luke looking over, the old woman immediately bent down and saluted.

"I asked her to come." Then Luke said to Shelley who was following him: "This is your case, you are responsible... This is my test for you."

Shelley said in embarrassment: "Detective, I still need to contact people to support the Crazy Ax Party. Moreover, I only know how to kill people, not find people."

Luke took up the case of Hilm's son's disappearance purely on impulse. Seeing how confident Shelley was about eating the Overlord meal, he wanted to beat her up.

But now it is indeed more important to help the Crazy Ax Party tide over the difficulties.

Moreover, if Shelley was really asked to take charge of this case, he might not be able to find his son and risk his life.

But I have already promised Hilm.

When Luke was in trouble, the clerk volunteered and said, "Detective, you can hand this case to me."

Luke looked at the clerk in front of him.

A very young man, looking eager to prove himself in front of the new leader.

Looks a bit familiar.

After identification, Luke finally recognized who this very familiar person was.

Wallis Thomas!

A five-star hero, a legendary agent of the Golden Shield Empire. Because of his meticulous conduct and outstanding achievements, he was recruited by the eldest princess into the "Raven", the top secret service agency of the Secret Intelligence Service.

Code name "Silence".

Later, during the struggle for the throne between the eldest princess and the eldest prince, he successfully assassinated important members of the eldest prince's family many times, and became one of the ten ace spies bestowed by the eldest princess.

Of course, Thomas today is not the "Quiet" he will be in the future. Judging from his age and appearance, he should be a rookie who has just joined the Secret Service.

Luke didn't expect to meet young Thomas at the Cape District Secret Service.

interesting!

When Thomas saw the detective looking at him, he said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, detective. I know that I am a newcomer and do not have the ability to handle cases independently. But I hope the detective can give me a chance. I
