Chapter 1136 - 1136

"Of course I'm not qualified, but if I want to keep you here, I can still make it happen."

Dirk Carter had just finished speaking.

The office door was pushed open.

Athena Meyer walked in with five or six staff members from the Silverwood City Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The meaning of this scene was clear without words.

Alexander Camden was also shocked by this sudden change.

However, being a person who has seen much of the world,

he quickly regained his composure.

He crossed his legs and asked, "Dirk Carter, what do you mean by this? Are you going to rough me up?"

"I wouldn't dare use force, I just need Secretary Camden to cooperate with the investigation of some issues regarding the 626 case. Don't forget, Secretary Camden, the 626 case was originally your task to me. You once said that no matter how great the resistance, I must persist. What I am doing now is following your instructions."

Dirk Carter said openly.

Alexander Camden snorted coldly.

He said, "If you want to touch me, you don't have that capability. I also brought people when I came."

That's true.

As mentioned earlier, when Alexander Camden came, there were a total of three cars.

In addition to the one he was in, there was a sedan and an IVECO, with more than a dozen people.

He slowly took out his mobile phone.

He was just about to dial a number.

Dirk Carter said, "Secretary Camden, I think you shouldn't make that call. The people you brought are now all under my control."

"What did you say?"

This time.

Alexander Camden was somewhat shocked.

He never expected that Dirk Carter would be so daring.

He, a head of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, actually dared to control the people from the State Commission for Discipline Inspection?

How was this possible?

The call was still made.

Sure enough, no one answered.

At that moment, Alexander Camden's heart began to feel a bit anxious.

"Dirk Carter, what exactly do you want to do?"

"I just said, I want the truth of the 626 case to come out."

Dirk Carter said firmly.

Alexander Camden sighed deeply and said, "But what does this have to do with me? Can you achieve your goal by detaining me?"

"Yes!"

Dirk Carter nodded and said.

He extended his fingers, bending them one by one, and corresponding to his fingers, he said, "Doyle Paxton, Grady Sawyer, and you, three people are in place now, just missing the last two."

After saying this.

He looked up at Athena Meyer and asked, "Has the message been sent?"

Athena Meyer nodded.

She said, "I've managed to let her secretary know, so unless there's an accident, she should know by now."

The "she" Athena Meyer referred to.

Was Dirk Carter's real target—the Silverwood City Party Standing Committee member and Minister of Publicity, Alexis Lewis.

Just as planned from the start.

At this time, Alexis Lewis already knew that Alexander Camden had also been detained by Dirk Carter.

If the arrests of Doyle Paxton and Grady Sawyer were within Dirk Carter's power scope, then Alexander Camden's detainment was entirely beyond Alexis Lewis's expectations.

Overstepping in handling a case is a political taboo.

No matter what, Alexander Camden is still a state-managed cadre.

Dirk Carter had no authority to act against him.

In one day.

Three consecutive pieces of bad news.

Now, she was finally losing her composure.

After all, she was very clear about why these three people were arrested.

What to do? What should she do next?

Her mind was in a complete mess.

She was now beginning to feel a hint of regret, if only she hadn't provoked Dirk Carter, if only she had never executed all those plans from the start, how could she have ended up in this situation?

The sky outside was already dark.

She didn't turn on the light either.

Sitting quietly in the pitch-black office.

The dim light from outside shone in.

It happened to illuminate a family photo on the desk.

It was a close photo of her with her son.

Seeing her son's bright smile in the photo.

Alexis Lewis suddenly stood up.

She gritted her teeth and said, "No, I can't just sit here and wait to be caught, I must fight back."

After saying these words.

She adjusted her clothes.

Took out her phone, found a phone number.

Stared at this phone number for a long time, finally made up her mind and dialed it out...

At nine o'clock in the evening.

Nearly three hours passed again.

The Upper Lake District Police Precinct in Silverwood City was brightly lit.

On the road at the main gate of the walled entrance.

A row of lights suddenly appeared.

Then.

Three cars appeared in sight one after another.

Leading was Silverwood City's car 002.

This car is Mayor Colter Hall's official vehicle.

Behind car 002, there was car 007.

This car is the official vehicle of Minister of Publicity, Alexis Lewis.

Behind car 007, there was also a Coaster bus.

Judging by the license plate, it should be an official vehicle of the State Committee.

The main gate of the police precinct opened.

The three cars drove in one after another.

After the cars stopped.

Colter Hall and Alexis Lewis got off immediately, walking toward the Coaster bus.

From the Coaster bus, first a young man got off.

Then, a middle-aged man in an administrative jacket, exuding authoritative demeanor, slowly stepped down.

Colter Hall and Alexis Lewis immediately, respectfully called out: "Secretary Keating…"

This person was none other than Stanley Keating, member of the Novaria State Committee, standing committee member, and Vice Secretary of the State Committee.

Also the third most powerful person in Novaria State.

In the dead of night.

Such a high-ranking leader suddenly arriving in Silverwood City.

And heading straight to the Upper Lake District Police Precinct.

The reason was self-evident.

At this moment.

Receiving the news, Dirk Carter also hurried out from the police precinct building briskly.

When he came to Stanley Keating, he wanted to extend his hand for a handshake.

But Stanley Keating acted as if he didn't see him and asked Colter Hall beside him, "Who is this…"

Feigning ignorance.

Intentionally putting Dirk Carter in an awkward position.

Dirk Carter could only reluctantly withdraw the hand he had extended.

Colter Hall gave him a disdainful glance and said, "Secretary Keating, let me introduce you, this is Dirk Carter, our Silverwood City's Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection."

"Oh, so you are Dirk Carter, I heard you're quite bold in your actions?"

Stanley Keating's words.

Seemed like praise but were actually a reprimand.

Referring to him defying his superiors and detaining Alexander Camden.

Dirk Carter, however, was not flustered.

He said, "Secretary Keating, you give me too much credit, it's all for the development of Silverwood City, for the people of Silverwood City…"

"A fine cause for Silverwood City, a fine cause for the people of Silverwood City, Comrade Dirk Carter, although young, you're already well-versed in political maneuvering, using grand justifications to cover up violations of discipline, high, truly high."

After speaking,

Stanley Keating even gave Dirk Carter a thumbs up.

The sarcasm was evident.

However, Dirk Carter still pretended not to understand.

He smiled and said, "To all the leaders, please, inside, I'll just give you a brief report on the case."

Stanley Keating's visit.

Was indeed to resolve the issue.

He snorted coldly and went inside with Colter Hall on his own.

Just when Dirk Carter also wanted to follow them inside, suddenly, a voice came from behind: "Secretary Carter, please wait!"

There was no need to turn around to know.

The one calling him was Alexis Lewis.
