Chapter 45: Aftermath
Everyone has a gun, so there will be no chaos·JPG
Although it is a free America, there are gunfights every day.
But one day, when this beautiful scenery falls on your head.
No one could laugh anymore.
Milo was at 35 West Milo Street on Rodeo Drive until it was almost dark.
He left the secret shelter of ClA in Beverly Hills only when Kim Aris and his men showed up.
Getting into a black Cadillac, Milo looked back at 35 West Milo Street on Rodeo Drive.
I thought that next time I pass by here, this place will become a real civilian facility.
A secret shelter that is no longer a secret can no longer be a shelter.
"Jin, give me a call."
Turning back, Milo reached out to the butler sitting on the passenger seat.
Kim Aris handed over the phone without hesitation.
As if it had been prepared long ago.
"Grandfather, I'm not dead yet."
"Of course, if you have been called by the Lord. Los Angeles and Boston would not be so peaceful right now."
Listening to the old man's still quiet words on the satellite phone.
Milo took a deep breath and suddenly said:
"Grandfather, I want full authority here, and I want Jin and the others to cooperate with me."
There was no immediate answer.
For a moment, there was a buzz on both ends of the phone.
There was only the old man's soft breathing and Milo's young and strong breathing.
It may be a dozen seconds or several dozen seconds.
"Okay, I promise. But before you do anything, you'd better meet with Edward first."
"Sure, but I'm not coming to South Pasadena. I called him and his secretary answered the phone. If he wants to see me, he can come to our place."
"I'll notify Edward. Please go back to 9406 Crest Avenue. It's safe there now. The gold has been cleaned before I pick you up."
"Okay. One last question, Grandfather, the main battlefield is not on my side, right?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I understand then."
Milo hung up, holding the satellite phone, and relaxed on the sofa-like seat, closing his eyes: "Jin, is Wendy okay?"
"My young master, Wendy is under review and his work is very unsatisfactory."
The butler's calm and gentle voice came from the passenger seat.
King addressed the Blackburn man differently than the others.
Never a boss or Mr.
Whether it's Old John, Joseph, Milo, or the late Palatine.
Jin is always addressed as "Master".
However, when referring to Milo and Paladin, the word "xiao" is added in front.
"Besides being unsatisfactory at work, does Wendy have any other problems?"
Jin was silent for a moment, then said, "No."
"Then let him go. I'm familiar with him and don't want to change him in the short term."
"As you command." Jin said, "My little master."
The car quickly returned to the vicinity of 9406 Crest Avenue.
Different from the previous peaceful and prosperous.
There were a lot of cars parked on the road near 9406 Crest Avenue tonight.
Many of them had flashing police lights on, with the English logos of LAPD and FBI engraved on them.
There are also many massive Subaru full-size SUVs that are very eye-catching.
A convoy led by a Cadillac sedan slowly drove into 9406 Crest Avenue.
And any other vehicle attempting to pass by or passing near 9406 Crest Avenue.
No matter whether you are a Hollywood star or a well-known wealthy person, you all have to undergo inspection.
At least that's the case tonight.
Meanwhile, news of a shooting in Beverly Hills spread before noon.
Seriously, it has been almost four months since August this year, and there have been 11 shootings in the United States that have resulted in deaths.
It is hard to tell how many people died because many gang shootings are not counted at all.
The shooting that happened in Los Angeles today would have happened if it had not occurred in Beverly Hills.
Just because no one died, even reporters might not be interested.
Just because it is Beverly Hills, there are still a lot of reporters and media paying attention to it.
So at noon, many reporters and hosts from major TV stations had already interviewed the scene.
However, since no one died, and all parties were intentionally or unintentionally suppressing the spread of the news.
Basically, this shooting, like countless other shootings in the United States before, will quickly fade away in the media.
But this is only in the eyes of the public, in the eyes of other classes and people.
The aftermath of the shooting is still spreading.
At noon, Jimmy, a senior agent at Creative Artists Agency, heard the news.
He was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said goodbye to his colleague.
Then he hid in a deserted place and called his employer.
"Fuck, how dare he, how dare he!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Before the call was connected, Jimmy kept muttering. After the call was connected, Jimmy immediately yelled at the other party:
"Oh my God! What on earth are you thinking? How dare you do such a thing?! I went through so much trouble to find a way to bail you out, and this is how you repay me?! Damn!"
"What? What are you talking about? Jimmy, I don't understand you? Fuck you, what do you want to say?"
"You're still pretending. I heard it with my own ears! You said you were going to kill him, and you will definitely kill him! Oh, damn!"
"What on earth is going on? There are so many people I want to kill! Fuck you, I don't understand what you mean!"
Suppressing his anger, Jimmy told the other party the news he had just heard.
"It wasn't me."
When I figured it out, the other person immediately said, "I've thought about it, and even contacted people. But I haven't done it yet! It's not me!"
Jimmy breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. In fact, the agent didn't quite believe that his employer would dare to do such a thing.
After all, although he became stupid from inhaling all the laundry detergent, he is essentially a rational person.
The reason why such an accident happened at the Disney party was mainly because the other party was low-key, plus the fact that they had just become a fan, and the long-term success led to misjudgment.
"That's good! I hope what you said is true!" Jimmy breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said, "I suggest that from now on, during the bail period, you must not go out at all! If reporters come to interview you, don't respond. It's best to stay at home and don't contact the outside world. Do you understand?"
"Do you have to be so cautious? I didn't do anything."
"Listen to me!"
"Okay, okay. All right."
“…”
After appeasing his employer, Jimmy immediately mobilized his own connections.
I want to find out what happens next.
But as a senior partner of Creative Artists Agency, Jimi's social status and channel connections far exceed those of ordinary people.
But after Jimmy inquired around, he found that what happened this time was a little beyond his scope.
He found that he could not find out any useful information.
We only know who was shot, and nothing else.
By the evening, Jimmy was exhausted and called his employer again.
But this time I called several times, but the other side didn't answer.
Jimmy didn't take it seriously because this employer often did this.
Sometimes it could be while high; sometimes it could be at a party; sometimes it could be on top of other women or men; sometimes it could be underneath other men or women.
Jimmy then called the other party's personal assistant again.
Basically, when he can't find the other party, Jimmy can usually contact the employer by doing this.
But today, Jimmy found that he couldn't get through to his life assistant's phone either.
He frowned, watching the sky gradually darken.
Jimmy simply went out and drove to his employer's residence.
It’s not far anyway.
But when he arrived at his employer's residence, Jimmy was surprised to find.
It's dark here and there's no one around.
Jimmy stood at the door, took out his cell phone, and instinctively wanted to call 911.
But in the end, he didn't know what he thought of, and put the phone back in his pocket.
Then he turned around and left without hesitation.
Don’t contact anyone again, just pretend nothing happened.
