The Devil Comes to America

Chapter 389: What is the Lich King?
When Xiong En opened his eyes, he was stunned by the unfamiliar environment around him.

He swore this was definitely not the interrogation room he had seen before.

Moreover, he had never seen the three people in front of him before, and they were not the ones who caught him first.

Looking at himself, Xiong En found that he was not imprisoned.

The three people opposite were the kind of successful people he often saw, dressed in suits and with calm and composed expressions on their faces.

"Who are you?" Xiong En frowned and looked at them: "Where is this place?"

"Welcome to Washington, D.C., Senator Xiong En." The man in the middle said, "I'm sorry to meet you in this way, but in California, there are many things we really can't ask clearly. I have to say that you run Los Angeles very well."

"Washington." Xiong En's expression finally changed a little.

He is just crazy and his thoughts are a little different from others, but he is not a fool.

The fact that I was brought to Washington says a lot.

"You actually brought me to New York State!" Xiong En cursed, "And you even drugged me!"

The three of them were all frowning: "This is Washington, D.C."

"so what?"

“Not New York State.”

"Ah?" Xiong En was stunned for a moment: "Isn't Washington, D.C. part of New York State? Then why is the White House in New York?"

"."

"Okay Councillor Xiong En, now is not the time to play dumb. We need to get down to business."

"You want to interrogate me, right?"

"Yes."

"Who are you then? NSA agents?"

"You can understand it that way."

"You are not qualified enough." Xiong En simply leaned back and said, "Let your director come, otherwise I won't answer any questions."

The man opposite said calmly: "Now that you are here, you have no choice, Councillor Xiong En."

"What? Can our country still force confessions?" Xiong En laughed.

"When it comes to national security, we're willing to use whatever means we can. This is not California."

"Then come on." Xiong En looked nonchalant: "Let me see how the US National Security Agency is going to treat a future star in the political arena. Remember to kill me when the time comes. Otherwise, kill me."

Xiong En grinned and said cruelly: "When I take the stage, none of you will be able to escape!"

But the three people who were in charge of interrogating Xiong En had obviously been through a lot. One of them said, "The last person who said this was the presidential candidate, Congressman Xiong En. Your trick won't work on us."

"No, no, no." Xiong En looked at the three people strangely: "I don't believe that you don't know what political transactions are, but you didn't mention it to me at all. I know why."

"Because you think I'm young! You think I've only been in politics for less than two years, and you think I'm a kid who knows nothing! That's why you're trying to scare me!"

"But I, Xiong En Bazel, have made everyone who beat me up pay a heavy price since I was a child, except for that bastard Dake! You can bully me because I know nothing, but what I want to say is that it is precisely because I know nothing that you should be careful."

"Like our families, right?" an agent suddenly asked, "You'll throw them into Mexico, too."

This is an obvious routine, a form of inducement to confess, but as they said, in the face of national security, some things can be compromised.

And what about Xiong En?

You say he's not afraid? How could he not be afraid? This isn't California after all.

So Xiong En needed something to give himself courage.

He sneered: "Maybe more than that."

"Is that so?" But the other party was not frightened by him: "You don't have to worry about us. We are in this business and know how dangerous it is. Thank you for admitting your behavior of threatening the congressman."

Xiong En was stunned: "When did I admit it?"

"Okay, let's move on to the next topic." The person on the left said, "The Bazel family has close ties with the East, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"A supervisor of international students, and an illegal immigrant who is your teacher." The man said, "They are also closely related to an Oriental gang in Florida. You bought three buildings there and converted them into hotels. Those hotels are where they often go."

“Should we even care where consumers go?”

"So they do frequent your hotel, right?"

"How would I know."

"You have issued California work visas to many Orientals through them, right?"

"What the hell is this? You are slandering me!"

"There are a large number of outsiders participating in California's disaster relief teams. These people all hold work visas. Is this true?"

"That visa was given by fucking Arizona! What does it have to do with me!" Xiong En glared, "Don't fucking try to put the blame on me! What? Isn't Arizona part of the United States?"

"Thank you for acknowledging Arizona's illegal independence." The congressman on the left laughed and said, "In other words, you also acknowledged your close contact with Arizona, right? Arizona's illegal independence has something to do with you, right?"

No matter how stupid Xiong En was, he could tell something was wrong. Fortunately, this was not the first time he was caught.

"I want to see my lawyer."

"Unfortunately, you don't have the right to a lawyer here."

"This is a right granted by the Constitution! You say it's gone? Who do you think you are?"

"It's a matter of national security, Councillor Xiong En."

Xiong En took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and said nothing.

The three of them looked at each other and said, "That's all for today's inquiries. We'll continue tomorrow. We have plenty of time."

Xiong En still said nothing.

At this time, California.

The fact that Xiong En was arrested has become known to everyone.

People still thought that Xiong En was being interrogated, but those guys in Congress and the state government had already received the news.

Xiong En had been secretly sent out of California.

After waiting for a day, they found that all the industries of the Basel family seemed to be in a state of contraction.

The previous arrogance is gone.

The most important point is that.
LAPD actually released those FEMA officials that they had arrested previously.

You know, catching these guys is the first step in disaster relief in California.

Many people saw a team of lawyers enter the LAPD, and an hour later, those people were taken out.

What does it mean?
Did the Basel family surrender to the ruling party's iron fist?

There was another point that made everyone notice that something was wrong.

It’s the construction team of the Basel family.

After FEMA showed up, they found these people immediately. If it had been in the past, if this group of people dared to come over, no matter what, they would have been carried out horizontally even if they came in vertically.

But this time, faced with those people's demands, these guys actually stopped working.

Yes, the work is stopped.

When reporters asked questions about Xiong En, Dark Bazzell simply replied that he believed in the laws of this country.

At this moment at Bazel Manor, Julia looked at Dak in disbelief.

"The Bazel family must be tough now, Mr. Dark!"

"Tough?" Dak was angry. "Tough against the ruling party? Make them hate Xiong En to death! You said before that even if Xiong En was arrested, you would not leave California! But now! Where is he!"

Julia took a deep breath: "Our people will find him soon and take good care of him."

Dak shook his head. "You couldn't even stop him from being taken out of California! How can I trust you?"

Julia quickly said, "I understand how you feel, Mr. Dark, but..."

"No! You don't understand." Duck interrupted Julia, shaking his head: "You don't understand at all! Do you have children, Ms. Julia?"

Julia was silent.

Dak narrowed his eyes and said, "I know you don't have it! Xiong En is my only child! Do you know that? I only have this one! I must ensure his safety! Even if it means sacrificing the interests of the Bazel family! I won't resist them, I just want them to be gentle with Xiong En. Is that wrong?"

Julia looked at the somewhat angry Bazel and could only choose to comfort him: "Mr. Bazel, I told you, you don't have to worry about Xiong En's safety. Politics has its own rules."

"Haven't those left-wing bastards done enough to break the rules? Even the president isn't safe! You're telling me Xiong En is safe?"

"This time it's different."

"Where is Xiong En?"

Seeing that Julia was speechless again, Dak said, "I know my child. He is a little bastard who doesn't like to suffer any loss! If he really can't stand it, he will definitely do a lot of extreme things! Believe me, I did all this just to use the Bazel family to protect him."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know, but I know that Xiong En will definitely choose a tough confrontation. If the Bazel family does the same, then he's really finished! So, Julia, you shouldn't come to me now, but go to Xiong En! Go and really make sure of his safety! The only thing I can assure you is that Dark Gold Pharmaceuticals will still cooperate with you."

"But I can't guarantee that if Xiong En is really in danger, we will still cooperate with you."

Julia's expression also turned grim: "Do you not believe us or are you threatening us?"

"Oh!"

Dak punched his desk, leaving a hole on it. He looked at Julia with angry eyes: "I just want Xiong En to be safe! This is the only thing I ask for as a father!!"

Julia took a deep breath and raised her hands slightly. "Okay, Mr. Dark, calm down. Believe me, you will know Xiong En's current situation soon. I will go and deal with this matter first."

After Julia left, the anger on Dak's face gradually disappeared.

Two people appeared in the room.

Dak looked at Xiunuo: "Boss, how was my performance just now?"

"That's right." Xiu Nuo said, "I think you really care about Xiong En."

Dak smiled bitterly and said, "He is my son after all. How can I not worry about him? Will Xiong En be in trouble?"

"Don't worry." Jia Yu said at the side: "Xiong En will be fine. At least he won't die, and he won't lose any limbs, but he will suffer. So don't worry about him, Dak."

Dak waved his hand and said, "I'm not really worried about him. After all, I know some political tacit understandings. At most, I can use some of the Bazel family's things to exchange Xiong En back. What I actually want to ask is..."

"What?" Xiunuo looked at him curiously.

"Do you think it's too late for me to have another child now?"

Xiunuo: “.”

Seeing Xiu Nuo's true expression, Dak quickly said, "Or, Xiong En is finished. I think I can take over, boss!"

Jia Yu sighed and said, "Otherwise, how could you two become father and son?" And in Washington.

Inside a round table, an old man said, "The Bazel family chose to give in. That guy still loves his children very much."

Another old man said, "Or maybe she knew the situation. I heard that Julia went to find that Dark Bazel, but she looked unhappy when she came out."

"This is just the conservatives' habitual thinking." Another old man said, "However, we need to confirm whether this is a trap."

"You mean you want cooperation for the Super Soldier Injection, right?"

"There's no rush for that. That's the biggest bridge between them and the conservatives, and now we can't move it. I'm talking about something else."

"That group of conservatives wanted to turn California into a red state, but they forgot that it's not so easy to change the voting base. How long did it take us to do that? It took more than a year. California turned red not because it was really red, but because a madman was coloring it."

"By the way, what's the situation with Xiong En?"

The last person's expression froze for a moment, then he said, "To be honest, it's a bit unexpected. I now doubt that no one can control that guy, because he is indeed mentally ill. That bastard still believes that the White House is in New York!"

"what?"

"Don't be so surprised. If you knew what he did, you would know that he was not pretending."

What did Xiong En do to make these people have such an evaluation?

Then let’s talk about the interrogation on the second day.

After a night of sleep, Xiong En was brought in for interrogation again.

The same three people.

The one in the middle asked, "Are you still going to remain silent, Councillor Xiong En? You should know that we have plenty of time."

But Xiong En, who was sitting there, spoke.

"I thought about it all night and finally figured it out."

"what?"

"Why should I suffer here?" Xiong En asked in return, "So what if it's the NSA? Who doesn't know that the law is meant to constrain ordinary people, not us?"

"So what if I'm not in California? If you really wanted to kill me, you should have assassinated me instead of bringing me here."

"Of course, your assassination attempt may have failed, but this time, you could have done something else, such as letting me die in a traffic accident, but you didn't do it."

Xiong En grinned at them and said, "So, I won't die, right?"

The agent in the middle frowned and said, "We are Councillor Xiong En of the Rule of Law Society."

Xiong En laughed: "Very good, thank you for telling me you dare not kill me."

As he spoke, Xiong En stood up and walked towards the three people.

The three people frowned and looked at Xiong En: "What do you want to do, Councillor Xiong En?"

"What for?" Xiong En laughed, then rushed over: "Of course I'm going to beat up you sons of bitches!!"

During the roundtable discussion, several other people were a little bit incredulous: "He really did it?"

"Yeah, he beat up all three of them. Their noses and eyebrows were all broken. If the others hadn't gotten in quickly, those three would have been beaten to death by Xiong En. That guy was too strong, and he also practiced boxing."

"Then?"

"After that, Xiong En was locked in a chair and interrogated. He said he was willing to confess, but he would only tell one person. After that person walked over, Xiong En bit off half of his ear."

The other people's eyes widened when they heard this.

"Later, Xiong En was tied up more tightly, but when he returned to his residence, he attacked the security guards and sent two of them to the hospital."

"Why would he do this?" one of them said in disbelief.

"Venting." The last person said, "We have consulted many behavioral analysts and psychology experts, and they all concluded that the boy was simply venting his anger and his dissatisfaction."

"Has America fallen to the point where people like this can become politicians?"

“And the support rate is very high.”

"Forget it." After holding it in for a long time, the others said, "Let him go. I hope he is really just a fool."

What was California doing while Xiong En was venting inside?
California is distributing benefits.

On the fifth day after Xiong En was taken away for investigation, some drug dealers had already appeared on the streets of California.

If this had happened before, these bastards would have been caught or killed in some unknown corner.

But now, no one can control them.

In order to show their compromise, all the forces of the Basel family began to retreat and just stayed in their own private territory as stay-at-homes.

California has finally banned drugs for nearly two months, but some guys who were once free from drug addiction after being watered by the spiritual rain have had their addictions relapse.

Many people questioned why these guys still appeared after the state government implemented the drug ban, but the state government turned a deaf ear to it.

Some poisonous insects that had been hiding also emerged again.

Secondly, public security in Los Angeles and even many cities has deteriorated.

This is the secondary disaster caused by contraband.

It is also what the public can see most directly.

In addition, some LGBT groups that were originally suppressed and unable to show up have once again begun to vigorously promote their interests.

You know, because they have the support of various forces, including the government that cuts off the people and pharmaceutical companies, although ordinary people are angry at these guys, public opinion is controlled and the government is biased, so they dare to speak out but can do nothing.

But ever since Xiong En started to be active, ever since Xiong En started to deal with them, ever since Xiong En said there are only two genders, this group of guys has been suppressed crazily.

But now that Xiong En is gone, these guys are out to disgust people again.

Many CWN programs were suspended due to these people's protests, and California even formally filed a parliamentary inquiry against TT.

The TT platform was blatantly targeted.

The good news is that TT does provide enough 'jobs', so targeting them, sanctioning them, and prosecuting them is a long process.

However, the federation has drafted a new bill.

An act that specifically targets a specific company since the founding of the country.

Now everyone can talk properly, only free new life.

It also provides a place for many people to tell the truth.

What the people could not stand the most was that a lot of the previous reconstruction work was suddenly stopped.

Then, a large number of workers who were on work-for-relief programs were fired on the grounds of illegal employment.

You know, many people here are rebuilding their homes.

The state government’s explanation was very simple. They would send professional personnel to take charge of this matter later.

Then there is no more.

If it were just that, it would be fine, but it doesn't make money, so many people who had rebuilt their homes before received government bills.

They were asked to pay for the materials used to renovate the house, and this bill was ten times more expensive than the two previous bills they received!
What if you don’t give money?
If you don't pay, your house will be sealed due to financial disputes.

As for where you live?

Isn’t it possible to put up tents on many streets in Los Angeles?
Of course, you can choose to borrow money from us, our interest rate is not high.

Yes, those guys on the left are right. California’s sudden humane governance does not mean that these politicians want to be good guys.

It's just that Xiong En, that rich bastard, wanted to be a good guy and wanted fame, so he used benefits and force to get these guys to follow him and be good guys.

But not everyone doesn't care about money.

Not everyone is like Xiong En, who becomes a politician for pleasure. Others really do it to make money!

One month after Xiong En was taken away for investigation.

The whole of California has become a mess.

Traditional media are still promoting the fact that the first step of California's reconstruction work has been completed, and a community that was once destroyed by the tsunami has now returned to its previous state.

However, when it comes to free freshmen, everyone knows that California is now in a similar situation to several other states.

Many people are asking.

It’s just that a young politician is missing. How could the gap between before and after be so big?

And what about the California State Assembly at this time?
Were they forced?
No, even if the conservative guys are trying their best to protect the political achievements created by Xiong En, in the face of huge interests, the conservatives also want to make money.

They are not really good people for the country, they are just doing it for their own interests.

After all, they are the ones who are most opposed to the gun ban bill, even though the number of deaths from gun violence in the United States exceeds 50,000 each year.

Then, a funny thing happened.

In that renovated community, many residents had their houses repossessed by the bank because they could not pay taxes, mortgages, and homeowners owed various debts.

Then the government generously said that these houses would welcome people who need them more.

Those illegal immigrants who were previously suppressed in California and could not hold their heads up were given the right to use these houses after being issued a temporary identity certificate by the federal government!
Yes!

The former owners of these houses are still living in tents outside, while a group of illegal immigrants have moved into this community that was one of the first to be renovated and widely publicized by the government.

Now it's not just Californians, people from all over the western states are cursing TT and Free Freshman.

There was even a petition to the White House calling for Xiong En to be released, but the number of supporters simply did not increase.

It was not until Liberty Freshman revealed the real petition data and produced evidence and even internal recordings to prove that someone was deliberately controlling the petition votes.

The only good news is that this month, Xiong En’s legal team finally got in touch with Xiong En and began to actively strive for more possibilities from it.

But beyond this, the chief lawyer was unwilling to disclose more information to the public.

Many people are asking, what crime did a guy who truly wanted the best for the people commit?

Many people took to the streets to vent their anger and even had physical conflicts with illegal immigrants.

This time, even throwing tear gas is useless.

People are born in darkness not because they can endure the darkness, but because they have never seen the light.

As for why the lawyer came, it was because they couldn't stand it anymore. Xiong En seemed to be getting stronger every day when he was fighting against them. If they didn't follow the normal procedures, the NSA people in Washington would be interrogating him in the hospital.

In just less than two months, California changed from a paradise that the disaster victims longed for and envied to a mortal world like them, even with more monsters and demons.

A consensus has emerged across the United States that the poor performance of California's top students was not because California was so good, but because there was a guy standing at the entrance from hell to the world.

But now, this guy has been taken away by some assholes.

The investigation into Xiong En finally produced news two months later, in January of the following year.

It can be said that Julia and her team worked hard for two months and finally got this opportunity.

Xiong En will sit in the dock in the Washington, DC court for his first public trial.
