American Tax Officer

The two cities were adjacent to each other, so if David wanted to come over, wouldn\'t it be a matter of minutes?

And if that were really the case, then the trouble could be serious...

Pristonley saw the worries of the crowd and comforted them, "But everyone, don\'t worry, even if David comes over, it\'s only half a day. In this half a day, even if some of you have dirty hands and feet, it would be very difficult for him to gather enough evidence!"

"Of course, just to be safe, I am now warning everyone, those with dirty hands and feet among you, better start dealing with it quickly. Otherwise, if that bastard catches your weak spot later, you\'ll not only harm yourself but also harm us."

"That\'s it, the meeting is adjourned!"

Upon hearing the words \'meeting adjourned,\' Sharp and Clement bounced out of their seats like a rocket being launched, then almost ran to flee through the door.

Everyone knows their own affairs best, they knew how clean their hands and feet were, so at this moment, they only wanted to deal with it quickly to avoid really being caught.

But what they never dreamt was, at this moment, their leverage had already fallen into David\'s hands.

...

Valley Tax Bureau Branch.

David and the three people had already arrived here, being led by one of the bureau\'s inspectors straight to the director\'s office door before walking in.

"Director David, I\'m Jennifer, the director here. It\'s an honor to have you as our guest at the Valley Tax Bureau Branch!"

"Director David, I\'m Edward, the one who spoke with you on the phone."

"Director Jennifer, Chief Tax Officer Edward, hello."

As soon as Jennifer and Edward saw David come in, they were incredibly enthusiastic and immediately came forward to shake hands with David.

After some pleasantries, David asked directly, "Chief Tax Officer Edward, the media side has been arranged already, right?"

"Of course, we can hold a press conference at any time!"

David nodded in satisfaction, then waved to Bucky behind him, who immediately passed a file bag to Jennifer.

Jennifer also did not hesitate, tearing it open right away, and Edward leaned in as well, the two of them slowly going through it.

As the contents of the documents were revealed, both Jennifer and Edward\'s expressions grew increasingly shocked.

Because these documents recorded in detail the unlawful deals between the city manager, Sharp, the deputy mayor, Clement and some businessmen, criminals.

What surprised them most was that according to the documents, these two individuals and the crooks were liable to pay taxes totaling up to 1.3 million dollars!

This amount was even more than Sparks City!

Moreover, one must know that although Henderson City was the second largest in Nevada State, it was, in fact, a mediocre city when viewed on a national scale in America.

And the revenue collected by the Valley Branch in the last assessment period was just a little over 1.1 million dollars.

If they closed this case now, just a few days into the assessment period the revenue would set a new record, it was something they wouldn\'t dare to dream of!

Jennifer suppressed the ecstatic joy in her heart and asked, "Director David, how did you get these materials?"

"Well, that\'s a long story, let\'s focus on the matters ahead for now!"

David responded with the same answer he had given to Director Hopkinson of the West City Branch.

"Indeed..."

Jennifer suddenly realized she had asked too much; the particulars might involve his unique case-solving techniques, which weren\'t likely to be freely disclosed to her.

She promptly turned the conversation away and instructed Edward, "What are you waiting for, Chief Tax Officer Edward, let our city\'s city hall also experience the prowess of our Valley Branch... witness the prowess of Director David!"

Jennifer had wanted to say that the local city hall should witness the prowess of their Valley Branch, but realizing that the bureau itself hadn\'t really played a significant role, she quickly changed her tune to flatter David.

"I\'ll arrange it right now!"

Soon, the media in our city received a notice from the Valley Branch, and those who had been "starving" for news didn\'t dare to delay, rushing over as fast as possible.

At the same time, City Hall also received the message, and Pristonley once again summoned important members of City Hall to the meeting room here, planning to see what the situation would be like next.

Carson City, Governor\'s Mansion.

"Governor, there\'s been some trouble in Henderson City..."

Receiving the message, Eugene immediately burst into Stevenson\'s office, telling him about the Valley Branch in Henderson City calling for a press conference.

"What did you say? How is this possible!"

After hearing about the situation, Stevenson had a look of disbelief.

Just yesterday, after the west city branch had held a press conference, Sparks then faced a massive earthquake.

And now the Valley Branch was about to hold a press conference, surely they weren\'t going to follow in Sparks City\'s footsteps?

Though Sparks City had fallen, under his threats and inducements, he could still keep the City Halls of the other 17 cities stable, continuing to execute the crackdown directive.

But if Henderson City fell too, then surely the City Halls of the other 16 cities would not be fools; in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the two cities, they would certainly choose to collectively cower.

At that time, he, the Governor, would become a joke!

Thinking of this, Stevenson growled angrily, "Has that David really gone to Henderson?"

"We\'re not sure about that at the moment. However, I think without David\'s support, the Valley Branch wouldn\'t dare to do this!"

Stevenson clenched his teeth and said, "Hasn\'t he just stirred up a storm in Sparks? How could he suddenly run off to Henderson City?"

"This..."

Eugene was at a loss for words; he too wanted to know the answer, but unfortunately, he wasn\'t a worm in David\'s stomach—how could he know?

"Right, they should be starting!"

Having suddenly remembered the press conference, Eugene quickly changed the subject, picked up the remote control, turned on the TV hanging on the wall, and tuned in to one of Henderson City\'s media channels.

Through the big screen, one could see that many media representatives had already arrived at the Valley Branch\'s hall, ready to welcome the arrival of the Tax Bureau spokesperson at any moment.

About five or six minutes later.

The scene suddenly became noisy and agitated, and then the cameraman quickly shifted the view to the right-side passage.

The woman leading the way came out first, none other than Director Jennifer of the Valley Branch, but she wasn\'t the cause of the noise and agitation on the scene.

It was David who followed behind her!

"Fuck, Governor, it\'s really that bastard!"

Though Eugene had guessed that David had arrived in Henderson City, he still couldn\'t help but curse when he saw him appear on the screen.

At this moment, although Stevenson said nothing, his face had already twisted in rage, his fists clenched tightly.

Henderson City, City Hall.

"My god, it really is that bastard stirring up trouble!"

"How is this possible? When did he suddenly come to our Henderson City?"

"Oh shit..."

Inside the meeting room, after seeing David appear on the big screen, the officials started cursing as well.

A person\'s reputation can lead like a shadow.

David had just caused such a big uproar in Sparks City, sending two important figures with high status and power there to jail; now that he really had come to their Henderson, who wouldn\'t be afraid?

"Call those bastards, tell them to hurry up and deal with their own messed-up affairs!"

Seeing David truly appear, Pristonley too couldn\'t stay calm any longer, his face so grim it seemed ink could drip from it.
