Chapter 508： The end of the case, the harvest

Chapter 508: Ending of the case, harvest - Part 1

Southern Las Vegas, Henderson County, at the entrance of an abandoned mining company.

 Hearing the words of the man from the IRS in front of them, Luo An and Winslow's faces were filled with speechlessness.

The IRS, the federal tax agency, looks very strange no matter from which angle you look at it.

On the one hand, IRS people believe that their duty is only to "collect taxes" and that other incidents such as murder, kidnapping, trafficking, and bombings have nothing to do with them.

On the other hand, the folk customs in the Federation are relatively simple after all. If one group of pro-independence groups and criminal groups is eliminated, another group will pop up, and it is impossible to defeat them all.

In this case, instead of spending a lot of time and organizing teams to eradicate these illegal and criminal groups every time because these criminals have not paid taxes, it is better to create some "black property tax types" and let the other parties take the initiative to pay taxes to the IRS.

The IRS also promised the other party that it would not inquire about the other party’s specific criminal violations, nor would it hand over evidence of these people’s criminal violations to other federal law enforcement agencies.

 In this case, the IRS and various illegal and criminal groups in the federal territory have successfully maintained this tacit understanding:

The IRS can easily get the illegal tax revenue from the company, and the illegal criminal groups also make money to become bigger and stronger in the future. Everyone has a bright future.

In bank robberies with an amount of less than $500,000 to $800,000, the IRS generally does not go to great lengths to investigate. Instead, it will wait for the robber to be caught and then seek tax collection from the other party.

But if the amount exceeds 800,000 US dollars and the robber has not taken the initiative to pay taxes, the nature of the matter has changed. The IRS will definitely investigate, find out the identity of the other party, and seize federal taxes from the other party.

 IRS: I don’t care how you earn your money, but I must have a share in it!

After a few seconds of silence, Luo An's eyes flashed with light. He took out his mobile phone and waved it in front of the middle-aged white man from the IRS:

 “Is it okay if I call my superior officer?”

  “Please do it.”

The middle-aged white man nodded with a smile. He knew Luo An's identity and knew about the transfer of cases. Luo An would definitely ask for instructions from his superiors, so he waved his hand to signal Luo An to do whatever he wanted, and then he took the two people behind him. An IRS agent walked to the side and waited.

"Thanks."

 Luo An chuckled and called the team leader Potente Byrne.

 “Good evening, sir, it’s me, Luo An.”

 “Good evening, what’s up?”

“I have led the special investigation team to solve the bank robbery.”

Luo An briefly described the course of the bank robbery and the roles played by three wanted criminals and a defected CIA agent in the bank robbery.

 “The case has been solved?!”

After hearing Luo An's previous narration, Potente Byrne's face was full of surprise. He already had guesses about Luo An and the speed of action of the special investigation team, which were several levels higher than those of other investigation teams, but every time Luo An An will give him a big surprise.

Thinking of this, Potente-Bourne felt jealous again. He really didn't know why that woman Veranith was so lucky to meet such an outstanding talent as Roan before him.

 Hearing what Luo An said later that the IRS had appeared and was preparing to **** the case away, the shock and smile on Potente-Byrne's face slowly disappeared. He suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart, pondered for a while, and said:

 “Luo An, promise the other party.”

 After speaking, Potente-Byrne was worried that Roan would have negative emotions because the case was taken away at a critical moment. He coughed lightly and comforted and reassured in a low voice:

“The IRS only cares about tax collection and will not take away the credit of your special investigation team.”

 “Okay, sir.”

Luo An nodded in agreement, indicating that he was complying with the commander's order, then discussed a few words with Potente-Born about the follow-up work of the case, and then hung up the phone. In the distant office, Potente Byrne hung up the phone and pondered for a while. He first picked up the landline phone and briefly communicated with the IRS, and then called Director Nasim on his personal phone. He couldn't hide the smile on his face. , said:

 “Good evening, Director, I have good news...”

At the same time, Roan hung up the phone. Instead of being angry, he felt a little happy that Potente-Byrne asked him to hand over the case to the IRS.

The reason is very simple. Luo An was already in the mine just now and learned the identities of the four bank robbers who were still alive, as well as their addresses.

These people's addresses are not together. In order to hide their traces, the four people hid in four states.

According to Luo An’s original plan, he would later need to contact the law enforcement departments of four states to organize a large-scale operation to arrest four people at the same time, in case someone found something wrong and escaped the siege or ran away in advance.

This kind of work is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it’s easy to be owed a favor. Now that the IRS is willing to take over the case, Luo An is extremely happy.

 As for whether the IRS operation would fail and the four robbers accidentally let the four robbers escape, Luo An was not worried and did not think this would happen.

The IRS is the boss among the bosses of federal law enforcement agencies. With an order, almost no law enforcement agency dares to fish in the water without exerting its efforts.

 Putting away his cell phone, Luo An walked up to the middle-aged white IRS man, stretched out his hand with a smile on his face, and shook hands with him:

“Then this case will be **** you.”

After a brief discussion with Luo An, he learned that Luo An had solved the case and had found out the identities of the six bank robbers, as well as the current addresses and identity information of the remaining four bank robbers. The white man from the IRS and the person behind him The two IRS agents were suddenly taken aback.

The white man from the IRS naturally saw Luo An's plan to use the IRS to arrest people, but he didn't care too much. Arresting people across state lines is considered troublesome work in the eyes of some law enforcement agencies, but it is not considered a troublesome job in the eyes of the IRS. What.

Moreover, Luo An has now found out the identities of these robbers, so the IRS does not need to continue their laborious investigation, which has saved the IRS a lot of work and time.

A flash of admiration flashed in the IRS white man's eyes. He stretched out his hand and shook Luo An's hand, saying with admiration on his face:

“I have long heard that the special investigation team led by Captain Roan Greenwood is the best among the ten special investigation teams, and now it seems that it is indeed well-deserved.”

"you flatter me."

The smile on Luo An's face became brighter, and he praised IRS a few words in return. The middle-aged white man laughed loudly, and the scene was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.

The work of the special investigation team later was relatively simple. The SWAT team members escorted the unconscious Pollard brothers and former CIA agent Cochran to the hospital for treatment.

Chenille, Mona and Michelle from the Special Investigation Team went to the hospital to guard the three people. Luo An and Winslow worked for most of the night and found a hotel to have a good night's rest before going to the hospital to check on the three people the next day. Case.

The Pollard brothers were still in a coma due to excessive blood loss. Cork had already woken up. When he saw Luo An, he wanted to curse, but he couldn't speak because of the bandage on his mouth. He could only stare at Luo An with angry eyes.

Luo An didn't care about the other person's eyes at all. After confirming that the other person was still alive, he walked out of the ward, took out his mobile phone and started making calls.

 The first call was made to the police in a certain city in Ohio. They were responsible for the case of the wanted criminals Pollard Brothers and Francisco, who murdered the bank robber Modlin.

 After learning that the FBI's special investigation team had solved the case and caught the murderer, the police in a city in Ohio simply praised Luo An and hung up the phone.

Luo An smiled and didn't care about the slight dissatisfaction revealed in the other party's words. After all, the other party had worked hard to investigate for many days and found nothing. It was normal to complain a little.

 Putting the Ohio incident behind him, Luo An then asked Mona to check the information Cochran had previously described, briefly investigate his situation, then took out his mobile phone and called the CIA.

“Hello, I’m Roan Greenwood, the head of the FBI’s Special Investigations Unit.”

 At the entrance of a deserted staircase in the hospital, Luo An looked at the scenery outside the window, the corner of his mouth raised slightly:

“We caught a guy yesterday who goes by the alias Cochran, but whose real name is Chad Evans, and he said he was one of your guys.”

After Luo An finished speaking, the other end of the phone suddenly became extremely quiet.
