“bang”, the door of the interrogation room was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man dressed as a lawyer walked in directly, loudly shouted, and said, “Everyone, if If you don’t mind, I hope you don’t continue to question my client.”
“Your client?” Jordan looked surprised. He knew that the client in the lawyer’s mouth was himself, but he did not I don’t remember that oneself once hired this lawyer, and didn’t even know him, so who is he?
“Mr. Norris, I am Bill Morton.” After Morton introduced oneself, he said solemnly to Norris: “From now on, please don’t say anything to anyone without me. I have been hired as your lawyer.”
“en!” Although Norris was a little surprised, he was still lightly nodded. The appearance of the lawyer finally made his dizzy mind sober. In the police Under the solid evidence and strong pressure, he almost completely confessed, even the last bit of bargaining capital was thrown out.
Seeing the appearance of the lawyer, Jordan Norris finally became smart again. He no longer intends to speak. As long as the person’s name is still in Oneself’s hands, Oneself is sure to reach a plea agreement with the prosecutor, even Be acquitted.
Jordan Norris’s thoughts are all written on his face, no one can hide it, Ling Xiao slightly shook the head, this is already a dead.
“Who hired you then?” Beckett couldn’t help but asked angrily.
“This is the end of us.” For Beckett’s question, Bill Morton was not even interested in answering.
The interrogation ends here. Without Jordan Norris’s confession, this case can only end here. As for the rest, the Procuratorate will soon send someone to take over. As for the follow-up, It’s no longer their business.
“It seems that Mayor can take a breath!” Back to Beckett’s apartment, it was late, and the French meal was naturally gone. The two bought some pizza and beer. It’s dinner.
“But Laura Cambridge is dead unclear,” Beckett’s face was full of unwillingness, and he took a fiercely bite of the pizza in his hand.
Ling Xiao knows that Laura’s failure to catch the murderer is just one of the reasons she is unhappy. The real problem is that she doesn’t have time to investigate Mayor James in depth. If she was responsible, she would be able to Find more evidence.
“At the very least, Norris will be prosecuted for assisting in the murder. This is already very good, and the rest will take time. There is always a chance.” After eating the last piece of pizza, Ling Xiao raised the bottle in his hand and touched Beckett lightly.
Beckett whited Ling Xiao with a cry, raised the wine bottle and greeted him, and soon, the two of them dropped the wine glasses in their hands.
next morning, when Beckett woke up, Ling Xiao next to her was long gone. She didn’t even know how the other party left last night, and she felt a little melancholy for a while.
At this time, the door of the room was suddenly opened. As soon as Beckett looked up, it was Ling Xiao who came in. He had already bought burgers and coffee in his hand, and there was another under his arm. A newspaper, suddenly, a smile appeared on Beckett’s face.
“Katherine, do you know what happened?” Ling Xiao yelled before putting down what was in his hand.
“What’s the matter, Ling?” Beckett lifted the thin quilt on his body and sat up directly. The smooth and charming upper body bloomed in front of Ling Xiao’s eyes. Ling Xiao’s somewhat unusual expressions indicated that something happened. not simple thing.
“Mayor James announced his abandonment of the campaign!” Ling Xiao stuffed the newspaper in Beckett’s hands and sat opposite her, enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of her, while saying: “All about Mayor James All of his complaints have been dropped, but at this time he announced his abandonment of the election, which means that his political life will end in the position of Mayor of Los Angeles. Four years later, even if he chooses to run again, he is too old. There is no chance.”
“There is a problem here!” Beckett did not have any happy expression on his face, but frowned tightly: “James has absolutely no need to do this. Obviously, other people’s hands pinched his handle, pinching the handle that made him have to give up running for president.”
“Yes.” Ling Xiao laughed, the reason why he was so anxious He came back because he guessed this reason. He slightly shook the head and said, “Although we did not completely knock James down at this time, we cut off his upward path directly, Katherine, this is also a big deal. Victory!”
“Yes!” Beckett narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, “As long as we follow the line of Jordan Norris and Bill Morton, then who has mastered James had to quit The handle of the presidential campaign can also be found out, and this time we no longer need conclusive evidence.”
“You can check it, but Katherine, you can’t expose oneself, what you found during the presidential campaign You can’t expose the things.” Ling Xiao shook her hand, said solemnly: “Once this happens, the enemy you are facing is not James alone. Also, the person who forced him to quit the presidential campaign, as a result It is possible that the gain is not worth the loss.”
“I know.” Beckett took a deep breath. At this time, she was far more awake than ever.
Robert Wellington James is already a little too old. He will work at the Mayor of Los Angeles for up to two years. The influence of his men who announced his withdrawal from the campaign will gradually decline. Many have been with him in the past. People in’s will gradually turn away from Germany, and as he is about to step down, many things will slowly be exposed. By the year of Mayor’s re-election, his influence will decline to its limit, and that’s when Beckett takes revenge. .
She won’t wait until he resigns. It would be too cheap for him. She will arrest him when he thinks oneself is the safest.
Beckett’s affair came to an end for the time being, Ling Xiao returned to his usual life, and he was making rapid progress with his concentration on cultivation.
With the blessings of Thor and Storm bloodline ability, Ling Xiao made a rapid progress on the comprehend Dao of Lightning. In less than half a year, Quaking Thunder Heart Law has been cultivation to the Great Perfection, and this night, Ling Xiao It is precisely the beginning of breakthrough Middle Innate Realm.
In half a year, Ling Xiao completely grasped his own cultivation base, and his foundation was very solid. Within the body, the two strands of Innate True Qi, one blue and one purple, showed a spiral shape, and the continuous entanglement was intertwined. At the same time, from Innate True Species to Baihui on the head, and then to the perineum, endless cycle, back and forth.
Suddenly, there was thunder in the sky, next moment, Ling Xiao Inner True Qi is like conflicting with an invisible barrier, and in an instant, it surpassed the previous ten times faster. run. The green and purple True Qi, which was originally entangled together, gradually fuse together under the urge of Wind-Lightning Dharma to form a jade-white True Origin, which runs quickly within the body meridian, the Heaven and the outside world Earth Origin Qi couldn’t help being absorbed.
Ling Xiao slowly opened his eyes. There is no joy for the cultivation base breakthrough in his eyes, but frowns. It seems that it is necessary to find a place for cultivation again, although it is not an imminent thing. But the Spiritual Qi provided by the spirit stream at his feet has gradually been unable to keep up with the growth of his cultivation.
He actually explored the west coast of California, but the only thing that can be used is the spirit stream at the foot.
In fact, there are several good Spiritual Qi Converging Grounds in San Francisco, but they have all been occupied, and the spiritual land has gradually been destroyed. It takes Ling Xiao a lot of time to find another place that is more suitable, even with his current cultivation base, don’t even think about it in less than a year and a half.
Although this time successfully broke through to the Middle Innate Realm, it is not without problems. Although he has been suppressing the growth of the repair base, the intensity of the fleshy body still cannot keep up with the growth of the repair base, this Time can break through smoothly, but he has been borrowing bloodline strength from Thor all the time.
Perhaps because of using Mjölnir for a long time, Thor’s physical fitness is much stronger than the average Asgardian, and even his bloodline contains a trace of Lightning Power, which makes Ling Xiao in the cultivation quaking There is an extra bonus when Thunder Heart Law.
Even if he starts cultivation Wind-Lightning Dharma now, the role of Thor Bloodline Strength is still quite useful, and he is even transforming his fleshy body by an unnoticeable influence.
