The Wolf of Los Angeles.
Chapter 640 Super Scandal
Below the apartment building, inside what appeared to be an ordinary truck, an electronic command vehicle had already been converted.
FBI agent Metzel, wearing a headset, listens to a report from his subordinates.
"Boss, they've gone up and stopped on the 6th floor." Someone was watching the two men: "Our intelligence was correct; they've entered the target apartment."
Metz ordered, "Keep an eye on things, but don't move yet."
When two people with a target enter a room, they need some time to build up their emotions. They came to Houston with a purpose and have been following for so long, so they need to capture a spectacular scene.
The other person replied over the radio, "Boss, we await your orders."
Metz wasn't in a hurry. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and turned on the ventilation fan in the carriage. He asked the woman next to him, who was wearing a blue field uniform, "How's the preparation for the reporter we contacted going?"
Linda replied, "The reporters who came this time are from World News Weekly. In order to prevent the news from being suppressed, our people are also prepared to film. If the media can't withstand the pressure, we will publish it directly on the Internet via Twitter."
“Very good.” Meters glanced at his watch and decided to begin the operation in fifteen minutes.
A call came in from Washington, and Linda transferred it to Meters's headset.
“I have received word that Hunter Joseph has arrived in Houston.”
"We've got his eye on him. Just wait for good news."
They didn't ask any further questions and hung up the phone immediately.
Tom Emmer's side has been keeping a close eye on the Donald Party's rivals, especially Obama and Joseph Jr., and has gotten a lot of dirt on them over the past two years.
Since the decision has been made to retaliate, it is natural to release explosive information and deliver the heaviest blow.
To legitimize their operation, they also arrested a drug dealer who had made multiple deals with Hunter Joseph, forcing him to implicate Hunter under immense pressure.
In an SUV near the apartment, two reporters from World News Weekly are checking their cameras and video recorders.
About ten minutes later, one of the people's phones suddenly vibrated.
The man took it out and glanced at it, then instructed his relatively junior deputy: "Follow behind me for a while, and remember, don't rush in front of the FBI."
The young man nodded excitedly: "I know, I know, don't worry."
Several cars then drove up and stopped in front of the apartment building. After the doors opened, seven or eight agents in dark blue FBI field uniforms got out and headed straight for the apartment building.
Two security personnel rushed to the entrance to check the situation.
The lead agent took out his badge and search warrant and said, "This is an FBI case, please cooperate."
The security personnel took a closer look and wisely chose to step aside.
Since the other party had legal documentation, they naturally wouldn't stop them. When they returned to the front desk and tried to call the property manager, the FBI stopped them, demanding that they notify the relevant personnel only after the operation was over.
The FBI agents split into two teams, with a few climbing the stairs via the fire escape to prevent the enemy from getting wind of it and escaping.
Most people took the elevator up to the seventh floor.
Two reporters from World News Weekly, hiding behind FBI agents, took advantage of the security personnel being restrained and went upstairs in another elevator.
When they arrived, the door to the target apartment had already been opened by FBI agents, and several tall, burly agents were rushing inside.
The two followed behind them and rushed inside.
"FBI, don't move!"
"Let me see your hands!"
"Put down your weapons! Put them down now!"
Inside the apartment, hearing the commotion, Hunter Joseph, who had just pulled a gun from the drawer, saw the dark muzzle of the gun. His high-dose brain instantly cleared up, and he quickly dropped the pistol. Ignoring his naked body, he covered his head and lay down.
He knew very well the way American law enforcement officers operated; if the other party didn't know who he was and felt their life was threatened, they were really willing to empty the magazine.
Hunter didn't dare gamble that the FBI knew his identity.
Two FBI agents stepped forward and restrained the naked Hunter, instantly quieting the chaotic apartment.
Other sounds then stood out.
On the large brown leather sofa, another person was lying naked.
A woman with long, flowing hair.
This person had clearly taken too much, and his mind was not only unclear, but he had also fallen into some kind of peculiar state of excitement.
Hailey saw a group of people, a group of people who came to satisfy her.
She beckoned with her finger: "Hurry up... come here, don't treat me like a human being, treat me like a dog, come here now!"
The sound of camera shutters being pressed could be heard continuously.
The two reporters, displaying professionalism, continuously used their cameras and video recorders to document the situation inside the room.
The FBI agents, who had already received instructions, did not stop the two.
The senior detective leading the team even waited two minutes before allowing three female detectives to come forward and cover Hailey's body with towels and clothes.
But when the drug addict gets going, he loses all sense of reason. Hailey threw off her clothes and grabbed someone's leg, begging for sex.
Hearing the camera shutter click, Hunter's mind, still not yet controlled by drugs, realized something was terribly wrong and shouted, "I need to see a lawyer! I demand to call a lawyer!"
No one paid him any attention for the time being, and the FBI agents conducted a thorough search of the room.
Two journalists, along with FBI technicians, used filming equipment to record everything inside the room.
There were not only two suspects, but also bags of powder on a low table and a handgun on the ground.
The FBI also found a package of drugs in the apartment, and the quantity was quite large.
In addition, another handgun and dozens of bullets were found. The handgun was unregistered, indicating illegal possession of a firearm.
These are all minor details; the real key lies with Hunter and Hailey.
What can a naked man and woman do together in a room?
The scene was quickly cleared up. The two reporters from World News Weekly exchanged a glance, did not say goodbye to the FBI, and immediately left the apartment, hurriedly went downstairs, and returned to their car.
The leader started the car and said to his assistant, "Call the higher-ups. We've taken photos that will cause a sensation across America, and they're related to Joseph."
The assistant took out his phone and made a call.
The man continued, "Tell the boss, we have to be given the front page headline!"
Upstairs, Hunter got dressed, and Hailey calmed down a bit.
The two were escorted downstairs by the FBI.
Because they were both under the influence of drugs, and after the initial excitement wore off, Hunter and Hayley were a little dazed. Their drug-addled brains weren't quite functioning properly at that moment.
After going downstairs, FBI agents escorted the two men to two separate cars.
Seeing that the operation was going smoothly, Meters immediately ordered: "Return to base!"
Several cars started up and headed straight for the FBI's branch office in Houston.
Back at their base, someone brought over a copy of the footage. Mettes handed it to his female assistant, Linda, and said, "Give a copy to the Washington side."
Linda took the USB drive and immediately sent it to Washington via a dedicated email address.
In front of the White House, the Cadillac limousine, custom-built for the president, drove through the crowd of protesters and stopped in front of the white building.
Tom Emer got out of the car and quickly walked up the steps.
Regina came over from the side, waved to those behind her, and the people following the president automatically distanced themselves.
Tom Emer entered the office and asked, "Has the investigation into the Chester Foundation begun?"
Regina said, "It has already begun."
Tom Emer nodded slightly and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Regina glanced behind her, lowered her voice, and said, "We've received word from Houston that the operation was a great success. The suspect was caught red-handed, and a large quantity of drugs and an illegally possessed handgun were found in Hunter's apartment."
Normally, it wouldn't be a problem for a senator's son to have these things in his possession.
But being targeted by the Washington authorities is another story.
Tom Emer's bad mood finally improved a bit, and he said, "Tell them to ignore any pressure from any side and follow the legal procedures."
He then asked, "Have you taken any pictures or videos?"
“I’ve taken the picture,” Regina said, waving her phone. “I can send it out anytime.”
Tom Emer thought for a moment and said, "Let the media make the first move. Doug has already spoken with News of the World."
Regina thought to herself that News Corporation was investing in both sides, with Fox television website on the opposite side and its traditional print media cooperating with them.
Rupert Murdoch's heart has always been black.
In the Capitol Building, not far from the White House, Joseph Jr. received a phone call from Houston in his office.
His lawyer informed him that Hunter Joseph had been temporarily detained by the FBI for drug possession and illegal possession of a firearm.
Hailey Joseph was also detained.
That's not the worst part. The worst part is that Hunter and Hailey were caught having an affair, and not only that, they were also photographed by some unknown reporter.
Joseph slammed his hand on the table, swallowing back a torrent of profanities directed at Tom Emmer. After a while, he calmed himself down and said to his lawyer, "Costa, the legal matters are your responsibility. Please get Hunter and Haley released as soon as possible, and find a way to restrict the release of photos and videos from the scene on the grounds of privacy or some other reason."
The lawyer replied, "I will do my best, but the FBI is different from local police departments. You need to think of a solution from a higher level."
“I will.” Joseph then asked a crucial question: “Which media outlet is the reporter filming on site from?”
The lawyer said helplessly, "The FBI claims they don't know either. The other party suddenly ran into the room, took pictures, and then ran away, but due to the principle of freedom of the press..."
Joseph interrupted angrily, "Bullshit freedom of the press!"
He quickly composed himself: "Sorry, I was a bit impulsive. Go ahead and do it. I'll put pressure on the FBI."
"I will do my best." The lawyer hung up the phone.
Joseph thought for a moment, then called Dillon and then contacted Rodriguez, asking them to find out which media outlet it was.
Then he contacted his old friends at the FBI and the Department of Justice.
The other party agreed to look into the matter.
As a seasoned politician, Joseph would not consider this a simple legal matter.
How could there be such a coincidence?
The youngest son was having an affair with his sister-in-law when the FBI suddenly raided the place. During the raid, reporters were also present and took photos, but the FBI casually let the reporters go.
Clearly, this was a targeted operation.
Joseph immediately thought of the one in the White House.
The two sides are rivals in the election, and he also made many underhanded moves specifically targeting Tom Emmanuel's "hunt for Ben Laden".
Even in Joseph's mind, these small actions directly led to the failure of the hunt.
What happened in Houston must have been Tom Emmer's revenge.
Joseph pressed the intercom to have his assistant charter a plane, intending to go to Houston himself.
His wife, Jill, also received the news, and although Hunter and Robinette were not her biological sons, Jill decided to accompany her husband to see what was going on.
Joseph's decision to run for president means that the entire family's fate is intertwined; if one rises, the other falls.
On the way to the airport, Jill couldn't help but worry: "Texas has always been Elephant Party territory, where the Elephant Party is the only dominant party."
She looked at her husband: "You mentioned last time that you reached an agreement with the Walker family on the seal incident. This incident is very likely the work of Tom Emer. Should we contact George Walker?"
Joseph hesitated slightly, but for the sake of his two sons and daughter-in-law, he picked up his phone and made a call, speaking directly to George Walker.
…………
At his estate in the Preston Hollo district of Dallas, George Walker politely ended his call with Joseph, outwardly promising to look into the matter.
Cheney, who was having afternoon tea with him, said, "I never expected Joseph to come to us for help."
George Walker chuckled. "Tom Emmer's revenge came swiftly and was so targeted. The Joseph family is going to be utterly disgraced this time."
Cheney put down his teacup, poured himself another cup of black tea, and said, "Joseph acted ruthlessly, directly destroying Tom Emmanuel's long-planned operation to hunt down Benladen, causing Tom Emmanuel to lose his biggest trump card in the election."
George Walker was somewhat surprised: "When did the Donalds become so efficient? I wonder what channels they used."
From the perspective of the beneficiaries, this whole thing was caused by the Donald Party.
Cheney cautioned, "We also need to be wary of Tom Emmer's retaliation." He picked up his teacup, and before taking a sip, asked, "Tom Emmer is also our enemy. Should we make things difficult for him?"
George Walker shook his head directly: "The Tom Emmer family and the Joseph family are like dogs fighting each other. The former is our enemy, and so is the latter. We can reach an understanding with Joseph in terms of public opinion, but in this matter, it is best to just watch the show together."
Cheney completely agreed: "If the opportunity arises, we could add fuel to the fire."
“That’s right.” Helping Joseph wasn’t in the Walker family’s interest. George Walker took out his phone, made a call, and said, “Keep an eye on the scandals involving the Joseph family in the media. No matter which media outlet breaks it first, you need to contact the Texas media and get widespread coverage.” (End of Chapter)
