Chapter 2308 Gotham Music Festival (Forty)

Chapter 2301 Gotham Music Festival (40)

"Bodies...there are corpses!!!!"

A man ran out of the bathroom, covered in water and in a state of embarrassment. His feet slipped and he fell to the ground. However, he still twisted his body and pointed at the men's bathroom.

His voice was particularly loud, because the sea water had just withdrawn, and most of the people were choking on the sea water and lying on the ground retching. After he finished shouting, he also kept vomiting, and then he staggered up from the ground and ran away quickly. .

Although there were many people in the hall, most of them had no time to check the situation. Oliver walked towards the stairs, and Amanda said: "Don't go, it must be Flamenco."

"Flamenco?"

"Serial killer." Amanda's lips formed a thin line and she said, "The murderer of my family."

Oliver paused in his steps. He looked back at Amanda and said, "The leader of the FBI's Special Crimes Unit is chasing a serial killer from the west coast to the east coast, and he hasn't caught up yet. When did the FBI do this?" Too bad?"

"Why do you think I disobeyed the order?" Amanda's expression was very bad. She said, "Flamingo comes from a transnational drug trafficking organization. He..."

"Confessor Cartel." Oliver said a name before Amanda did.

Amanda looked at him with wide eyes in shock.

"Why do you think I challenged you and not the director of the FBI?"

Oliver sighed and said: "The Confess Cartel, a US-Mexico transnational drug trafficking organization, headquartered in Guadalajara, Mexico, about two months ago, wanted to transport a large number of cannabis products to the east coast of the United States by sea and land. , Gotham to be precise, right?”

Amanda also looked at him with some surprise. She thought for a moment and then said: "Yes, according to my investigation, this drug trafficking organization is indeed headquartered in Mexico and has been trafficking drugs into the United States."

Oliver said calmly: "Just two months ago, someone bought drugs from us at a high price."

Amanda knew what he was referring to and she knew how big of a deal Oliver was getting up to in Mexico.

"Are you in the drug business?" Amanda said with some confusion, but she was not surprised. After all, to maintain the operation of such a large stall, you must make money. In her opinion, drug trafficking is not a heinous crime, let alone It's drug trafficking to the United States.

"That's the key. Some people want everyone to think so." Oliver sighed and said: "They bribed the warehouse managers and asked them to pretend to transport goods in the middle of the night, and then let the locals discover it, so that they would feel that although On the surface I was leading them in agricultural reform, but secretly I was still doing drug business.”

"One of my companions, I used to think he was my comrade, but unfortunately he lied to me. He said this was the plan I proposed, which explains how the large amount of funds in my hands came from."

"He asked me to stop this dirty and despicable behavior in front of everyone. Everyone thought he was just, but I understand that when this is not the case, it means that someone is causing trouble for me, which means they must have something. action."

"I took a few people, followed the warehouse manager's line, caught their tail, and found their base located on the border of Guazhou, which is their confession cartel."

"Through interrogation, we know that since the agricultural reform, the vast majority of farmers in Guazhou no longer grow opium poppies. We have eliminated all opium poppy cultivation, transportation and processing channels, but unfortunately some people still have stocks in their hands, and they are reluctant to let it go. Destroy it and hide it.”

"The boss of the Confess Cartel knew this was a business opportunity. Because we severely cracked down on drug crimes, these farmers did not dare and could not find channels to sell goods, so they approached them one by one and purchased the inventory at extremely low prices."

"It's more of a robbery than a purchase. They told the farmers that if they didn't deliver the goods, they would come to us to report them. The farmers had no choice but to give them all the goods they had secretly hidden."

"Although everyone didn't hide much, poppies used to be the mainstay industry here, and everyone had some in their hands. In this way, they gathered a large number of drugs."

"They know where these drugs can be sold for the highest price. The United States alone is not enough. Shipping them from the border will definitely result in lower prices. Only by transporting them by sea directly to the wealthy east coast can they maximize profits."

"All the sea ports in Guazhou are under our control. We inspect these things very strictly. Without giving us some trouble, they can't send the goods out, so they directed and acted on their own to purchase drugs from us at high prices. One out."

"And the 'companion' who jumped out and said that I betrayed them is one of yours."

Amanda was stunned for a moment, but soon she realized what Oliver meant. Anger burned in her eyes. She looked at Oliver and said, "So they are together?!"

"You are a team." Oliver went up a step, looked into Amanda's eyes and said: "The FBI and the Confession Cartel are a team. The organization you are working for now hired the murderer who killed your whole family. And regard him as more important than you."

Amanda was completely frozen in place.

"I left Guadalajara voluntarily because I knew that in this situation, repeated clarifications were the stupidest and most time-wasting option and could put us all in danger."

"If I leave voluntarily, everyone will come after me, because they know that I am the core. Sure enough, I deliberately sailed from the border of Guadalajara, and the confession cartel hired by the FBI was immediately exposed. It's a mistake."

"They sent dozens of drug dealers and killers to hunt me down. They chased me all the way to the West Coast of the United States. I think that's when you found the traces of the flamingos."

Hearing the name "Flamingo", Amanda clenched her fists hard, all the muscles in her body were trembling, her teeth were clenched, and her hairs stood on end.

"Yes, he is an American fugitive." Oliver nodded and said, "But I guess you didn't find his name in the criminal files, otherwise you would have solved the case long ago. In fact, it was because he was hired by the FBI, and "The FBI often lets certain ruthless criminals work for them in exchange for clearing someone's criminal record and social identity."

"I haven't found anything," Amanda said, her voice trembling. "Ten years, nothing."

Then she raised her head, trying not to shed tears, and finally she looked at Oliver with red eyes and said, "That's why Schiller won't tell me who he is, even though he has a list of those damn serial killers."

"It's meaningless." Oliver shook his head and said, "You can't fight him, you can't fight them, you can't fight them all."

"If the murderer of your whole family was setting the stage for such an important event, then if you pursue it all the way and seek revenge, you will only end up getting yourself killed."

Oliver sighed again and said, "I said that's why I challenged you, I got information on some of them from a friend when they were hunting me."

"Schiller?"

"Yes, but I didn't just come here at that time. I had learned some of the codes before. Although they were changed, I still deciphered a lot. It happened that there were statements by Flamingo in those issues of the newspaper."

"What did he say?"

"He said that the little girl left behind in the murder that he was most proud of back then has now become an important figure in the FBI. He only posted this to show off and increase his own status, but I followed the clues and inferred this so-called The little girl could very well be you."

The expression on Amanda's face was numb. She was obviously greatly stimulated. She murmured to herself: "My pursuit of him has been greatly hindered. It can be said that it is difficult every step. I don't know." Why is this happening? I don’t know why a serial killer who killed so many people can’t be arrested and tried. I don’t even want him to die, I just want him to go to court.”

"I felt desperate at the time. I knew that if I only used the methods within the rules, I might never be able to catch him, so I mobilized the manpower I had trained. If there were not enough manpower, I would do it myself."

"I chased him all the way to the East Coast, and when I found out he was aboard the Atlantis, I was ecstatic because I knew the magic of this ship was documented by the FBI."

"Whether it is the FBI, the CIA, the National Guard or the military, they are all very interested in this elusive ghost ship, but there is nothing they can do. They can't catch it, and they can't control anything that happens on the ship. thing."

"I was ecstatic at the time and thought I had finally found a good opportunity to kill him, but what I did crossed the line too much and even disrupted my boss's important plan. At that time, he said it was an important plan, but I didn't pay much attention to it. Now I see It could be you."

"And I finally know why he looked so surprised after I told him that I had received your challenge and been invited on board."

"In fact, he was more than surprised." Oliver took two more steps, stood in front of Amanda and said, "He should be more happy that he can solve our two big troubles at once."

"Although when I say this, you may think that I am provoking your hatred, but according to my investigation of the family extermination case that year, this was not entirely the Flamingo's idea, and it was not even limited to the Confession Cartel."

Amanda stared at him blankly.

Oliver lowered his eyes and said, "I'm sorry for the tragedy that happened to your family, but I think you also understand that it's impossible for a flamingo to kill your whole family on a whim while walking on the road. He's not that kind of mentally ill person. "

"I read from the newspaper that this guy is just a small gangster among serial killers. He ran away to other places after he couldn't survive in Gotham. From the beginning to the end, he was just a gun in other people's hands. As for the truth, How about it, I’m afraid it’s up to you to investigate.”

Amanda heard too many metaphors in Oliver's words, which made her become uneasy. She had regarded the serial killer who killed her family as her lifelong revenge target, and she was ready to do anything for it. But it also means she can no longer accept the deeper truth.

Amanda gritted her teeth and looked at Oliver and said, "Then you choose to challenge me and pull me on board for your purpose. Let's talk about it."

"Before I do that, I must ask, are all the agents who got on the ship yours?"

"You know that's impossible. I've only been a team leader for a short time, and I don't have so many confidants. And my boss doesn't trust me. Most of them are his people."

Oliver rubbed his forehead and said, "Okay, it looks like the situation is worse than I thought, but it doesn't matter. If the plan goes well, I will give the FBI a hard blow."

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"I……"

Suddenly, a bigger commotion broke out at the bottom of the stairs, with crying and screaming, and everyone was shouting.

"Body! Body!! There is a body in the utility room!!!"
