American tax officials

Chapter 352 David is resurrected

"Lahan is right. The current situation is unfavorable to us. We cannot retaliate blindly, otherwise the situation will become even more difficult to control."

The crowd was already silent because of Rahan's words, and with the addition of Vertonghen's statement as the chief advisor, no one in the room could refute him.

People are dead after all; no matter what they do, they can't be brought back to life.

Therefore, it's best to look ahead.

The atmosphere froze for about a minute, at which point Obadiah could no longer sit still. He gritted his teeth and said, "But we absolutely cannot let this matter go. Yanza, notify the armed base in New York State and have them mobilize a batch of fighter jets to conduct 'exercises' near Senado Island."

"Yes, Chief."

When they heard that armed forces would be deployed, the high-ranking officials present tensed up, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that it was just a drill.

"Furthermore, the Storm Tax Investigation was initiated by Inspector General David. Although he has just passed away, we must continue this operation in accordance with his will. What do you think?"

"I agree with that. Although this operation was initiated by Inspector General David, it is also a policy of our IRS. It would be too frivolous to cancel it just because someone died."

"That makes sense, but then again, if the tax investigation is to continue, who will lead it?"

The executives present all agreed, but when it came to who should preside, everyone fell silent.

David's tax audits in Silicon Valley were so successful that if the person who takes over fails to maintain the success of this policy, they will have to bear some responsibility.

Obadiah turned to Donald and said, "Donald, you'll be in charge of this investigation from now on. The main location? Wall Street!"

David's assassination not only cost the IRS a major asset but also caused them a great loss of face. Although they cannot directly retaliate with armed force due to the current situation, they absolutely cannot let the Freemasons get away with it.

Wall Street is the Freemasons' stronghold, right? Well then, the IRS can use the storm of tax audits to continue its massive retaliation here!

Obadiah's idea was good, but Donald looked distressed when he received the order.

It's not that he didn't want to get involved in this mess; David was someone he had personally promoted, and he was so angry that he wanted to bite those Freemasons to death.

However, he was well aware of his own limitations. He didn't have David's auditing skills, and in a place like Wall Street, which company didn't have a top-notch tax and finance team?

He really had no confidence that he could exploit the tax loopholes in these companies.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"No... I'll do my best!"

……

Over the remaining two days, people across the country spontaneously organized memorial services for David.

However, given that David is now "dead," many criminals have started to advocate for the repeal of the Black Tax Act.

Of course, the most attention-grabbing event was a press conference held by the IRS.

Donald attended the press conference, where he followed Obadiah's instructions and announced to everyone that the storm tax investigation would continue.

As for the next location, he made no attempt to hide anything, directly stating that he would focus on Wall Street.

Wall Street is the cradle of world finance, and this has naturally caused a global uproar.

However, the commotion subsided quickly.

Everyone knows that only David has the ability to thoroughly investigate the taxes in places like Silicon Valley and Wall Street, and now that he is "no longer alive," even if the IRS continues its investigation, it is highly unlikely to yield any significant results.

Do they really think those accountants, finance professionals, and tax officers on Wall Street are pushovers?

They had already thoroughly investigated the tax and financial issues through various means. Apart from David, they were confident that no one from the IRS could audit them ten or a hundred times without any problems!

……

Portland Harbor, located on the west coast of the United States, is an important port in Oregon, about forty kilometers from Salem.

Meanwhile, on the west side of the port, amidst a densely packed area of ​​containers, a blue Volvo arrived.

After the car stopped, two men got out. They were none other than CIA agents Elvis and Broad.

Broad walked to the entrance of a container, opened a hidden cover, and revealed a small LCD screen inside.

He placed his entire palm on it, and then a "beep" sound came from the screen, followed by the container door opening automatically.

"Elvis, you've finally arrived! If I had stayed here another day or two, I felt like I would have suffocated!"

As soon as the door opened, a complaining voice came from inside.

"Our safe house is boring to begin with, and besides, it was your own plan to come up with this."

Elvis walked in with a smile.

Inside, a figure was sitting with his legs crossed, eating a bag of potato chips. If any media were present, they would be shocked, because sitting inside was none other than David, who was almost confirmed to be dead!

David shrugged. Yes, he had indeed orchestrated this "fake death" operation.

When he first heard that he was about to be assassinated, he stopped Elvis, told him about his idea, and asked him to see if he could help set up the plan.

After all, the CIA started out doing planning, assassinations, intelligence gathering, and all sorts of shady operations, so this kind of deception is child's play for them.

So since it was David who wanted to plan this, Elvis agreed without much hesitation.

The rest of the process is simple.

From the moment the Freemason assassins arrived in Salem, they were closely monitored by Elvis's people.

After the assassin entered the hotel and planted the bomb, Elvis immediately sent someone into the suite to place a jammer next to the bomb, in order to ensure that David would not be killed because the bomb was detonated prematurely when he returned.

In addition, the CIA also opened a lower passage in the suite at the time and prepared another body.

After David finished his activities and had lunch, he returned to his suite and immediately slipped down to the next floor through the passageway. He then quietly left the hotel and arrived at the CIA's safe house.

The bomb exploded successfully, and firefighters found human remains in the suite. Since he had hidden himself and did not show himself, the world naturally assumed he was dead.

David had three main reasons for faking his death.

First of all, since the Freemasons have already resorted to assassination, even if he manages to escape this time, there's no guarantee he can escape a second time.

If he were to accidentally die, he would like to see how the IRS would react and whether they would take direct action to avenge him.

Or... since he's already dead and has no further use, we might as well let bygones be bygones and not pursue the matter any further.

Secondly, according to information previously obtained by the CIA, the Ansar Group, the Illuminati, and the Freemasons have mobilized many people to work on this matter after his death.

Of course, these people only started to act after he died; if he were still alive, they naturally wouldn't have shown their faces.

So he simply faked his death, so he could see which of the three major forces had jumped out, thus getting a feel for the three major forces and saving himself a lot of trouble later.

Finally, the Black Tax Act faced repeated crises of repeal, but it was always successfully overcame through his intervention.

And it is precisely because of his existence that many people, or rather many members of parliament, dare not openly oppose him.

But once he dies, things can change.

Who knows, some guys might revive this plan after his death in order to curry favor with the Freemasons.

His faked death was also to see the reactions of these lawmakers, to see which ones he could use and which ones he could get rid of.

In that case, he can then prepare to push forward another bill!

Some might say that faking his death not only deceived the Freemasons, the Ansar, and the Illuminati, but also the entire nation.

And these people have a lot of David's fans.

Isn't David afraid of wasting the fans' enthusiasm and causing them to resent him by doing this?

David had already prepared a countermeasure for this.

He will hold a press conference to explain to the public that he discovered the assassination plot against him in advance, and that his faked death was to follow the clues and find out the mastermind behind it. He believes the public will understand.

"Alright, Elvis, tell me what I want to know!"

David picked up a potato chip and put it in his mouth, smacking his lips as if he were watching a melon seed.

"I'm sure you saw your IRS announcement on TV. Your superiors said the storm of tax investigations will continue, and they even specifically named Wall Street as being given special 'attention.' However, based on the intelligence I've received, the Freemasons don't care at all, because they know that Donald, the commander-in-chief, isn't you. He can't do anything to Wall Street; he's just venting his anger..."

In fact, David was quite satisfied with the IRS's approach to this.

Throughout human history, countless officials have faced the fate of being executed after their policies were implemented.

Now that he is officially dead, the IRS has publicly stated that it will continue the operation. While this may be partly to save face, there is no doubt that it also contains the intention of revenge against the Freemasons.

"In addition, I must say that your chief still has some backbone. Although he was suppressed by the three major forces, he still ordered the New York State Armed Forces to be deployed. The Armed Forces have deployed a lot of fighter jets in the past two days. The fish around Senado Island, the headquarters of the Freemasons, have suffered a lot. I suppose they haven't been sleeping very well these past two days."

"Oh?"

David's expression shifted. To avoid revealing his faked death, he had been staying in the safe house for the past few days, and he only learned about the news through television media reports.

However, the IRS would certainly not release information such as deploying armed forces to blast fish on Senado Island, and the Freemasons would be even less likely to leak such information for the sake of their reputation. Without media coverage, he would naturally not know about it for the time being.

"Besides, there's been quite a bit of undercurrent going on in America after your 'death.' As for the list you requested, I've compiled a preliminary list of those people who have 'slipped up' their act. Take a look."

David took the list from Broad and his gaze sharpened as he looked at the names.

After his death, more than a dozen important figures in American politics, including the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State, went to the White House to put pressure on him. This was no small feat.

But then again, I wonder what kind of expressions these people would have if they saw that he was still alive?

Gathering his thoughts, David asked again, "Oh, by the way, what was Gavin's stance?"

Since his assassination attempt, he has become increasingly aware of the importance of having a backup plan.

The CIA has Elvis, and while the FBI's main job isn't intelligence work, their capabilities in this area are not weak.

In his opinion, Gavin was someone who needed to be supported, as this would be very helpful for his future security and other work.

"After what happened last time, everyone knew that Gavin was one of your men, so he had a tough time after your 'death.' However, he didn't try to grovel to the Freemasons or anyone else; he simply took a temporary leave of absence on the grounds of feeling unwell."

David was fairly satisfied with this. As long as Gavin didn't immediately turn out to be a traitor after his death, he was still worth cultivating.

"However... those three guys you planted to take over News Corporation weren't as spineless as Gavin. After hearing the news of your 'death,' they very tacitly went to the Freemasons, expressing their willingness to replace Murdoch and follow their lead. As a result, they were even invited to their New York celebration dinner tomorrow..."

"Wait... a celebration dinner?"

Elvis slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot to tell you, the Freemasons are hosting a victory banquet in New York tomorrow. They've also invited the Illuminati and the Onsa Group. However, according to my intelligence, this banquet isn't just about celebrating the successful assassination. The Freemasons actually want to use this banquet to discuss with the two major powers the overturning of your previous tax policies targeting Silicon Valley and all Jewish companies, and to reclaim their profits!"
