Chapter 709: Chapter 317 Decent Person_2
Immediately reported the situation, “No hostages found.”
“There’s an underground passageway! We’ve sent people and money down there. If something goes wrong, they were supposed to move them secretly!! But they hadn’t had the chance to escape before you blew them up!!” The drug dealer cried out.
The Drug Enforcement Administration investigator and Beggar Gang Disciples shared a glance and immediately took him to find the passageway cavity, using a drone to lead the way, following the staircase down to the underground passage where they indeed found two women bound and disheveled.
The DEA investigator didn’t hesitate to draw his gun and kill the drug dealer, using such a decisive and seasoned tactic of burning bridges; the Beggar Gang Disciples were stunned, then rushed into the underground passageway.
Upon seeing a room full of cash, the investigator couldn’t help but exclaim, “So much money?”
The Beggar Gang Disciples went over to help untie the women, who were terrified after the recent bombing almost collapsed the basement.
After successfully rescuing the hostages, they immediately reported the news to the General Sect Leader and Chief Lei Luo.
“The drug dealers have been completely eliminated, and we successfully rescued the hostages.”
“Well done!” He praised, and the Black Hawk Helicopter also landed on the road.
Allen Zhang and Chief Lei Luo greeted Mrs. Newman and the Mayor Reagan’s daughter, Debbie, and the Chief quickly went over to inquire about their condition: “Are you Mrs. Newman? I am Chief Lei Luo from the DEA, and Mayor Reagan has entrusted us to rescue you!”
“Thank you so much,” Mrs. Newman, holding her daughter, couldn’t help but cry.
Chief Lei Luo consoled her and then had the DEA investigator promptly contact Tijuana to report the news, using mobile video calling for communication.
Mayor Reagan of Tijuana City finally relaxed when he saw his wife and daughter were safe, exclaiming, “Thank you for your help, Chief Lei Luo, for bringing my wife and daughter back safely to me. I knew I could trust your DEA.”
“This success was largely due to Mr. Jin’s provided information and firepower support; without it, our DEA agents and force alone may not have resolved this drug dealer issue so easily,” said Lei Luo.
“Thank you, Mr. Jin! I believe we can have even closer contacts and cooperation in the future. On behalf of the people of Tijuana, I thank you!” Mayor Reagan was extremely grateful for the General Sect Leader’s help.
Allen Zhang, seeing the middle-aged man on the phone video, also smiled slightly, “This was our duty.”
Following that, Chief Lei Luo handed the phone to Mrs. Newman, allowing their family to talk. DEA investigators also came to inform them of their findings.
They moved to the central storage warehouse and were shocked to see the amount of counterfeit money that had been moved out, Chief Lei Luo exclaimed, “There are this many counterfeit notes here! These drug dealers are despicable!”
“…” Allen Zhang was stunned for a moment, looking at his outraged emotions as if they were genuine.
He also nodded with a strange expression, “Indeed, they not only trafficked drugs but even printed millions of counterfeit notes, truly heinous! Chief Lei Luo, what do you think we should do with this counterfeit money?”
“I think we should burn it all to prevent these counterfeit notes from entering the market, causing inflation and harming residents,” said Chief Lei Luo righteously.
“Agreed,” nodded Allen Zhang.
“Here we have $12,460,000 in counterfeit notes. I think we can split it, and each destroy our share to ensure it never leaves this room and endangers the public interest,” Chief Lei Luo suggested after having the DEA investigator check and tally the amount.
“I see no issue with that,” Allen Zhang agreed, immediately calling the Beggar Gang Disciples for distribution, making sure everyone had a share.
Investigators grabbed a handful and stuffed it into their pockets, “I will have it burnt when I get back!”
“Of course, must be burnt,” grinned the Beggar Gang Disciples, stuffing their share into their pockets.
Each was responsible for burning several thousand dollars, distributing $2,460,000 in fractions. The remaining $10,000,000 in counterfeit notes was split half-and-half between the General Sect Leader and Chief Lei Luo.
Allen Zhang also had Sieg put the money in a tote bag, loaded it onto the vehicle, and took it back to be burnt.
Then, they had the Beggar Gang Disciples bring fuel tanks, throwing them into the empty factory, setting it ablaze.
The investigators conducted a thorough search and found the fragmented body of One-eyed Dragon in the ruins; bruised and scattered parts were hard to piece back together but were still identifiable as him.
“This guy died too easily, got off cheap,” sighed the investigators.
“Notify the local police, tell them we have conducted an anti-drug operation here, successfully completed the mission, and need them to send someone to clean up the scene,” instructed Chief Lei Luo.
The investigator obeyed the order, called 911, and informed the local police.
Lei Luo then took a form from his pocket, filled it out, and signed it, handing it to the General Sect Leader, “Mr. Jin, this is the document our DEA issued tonight detailing the munitions used. You can tally it up, fill in the report sheet, and take this document to the relevant City Government department to apply for reimbursement. The mayor will definitely compensate.”
