Chapter 27: Don’t let your brother down



In the evening, Jerry worked overtime to write a report on the raid on the perfume store.

In the report, he specifically wrote about his informant, Ribs, who provided clues for the operation to crack down on the special drug den and played a decisive role in the raid.

At the same time, he also praised Reebok's ability and character.

The young man was described as having high moral standards, strong convictions, and a strong hatred of evil. Crucially, he was also skilled in combat, had good marksmanship, and was also clever, making him the perfect candidate for an undercover police officer.

At the end of the report, Jerry formally submitted an application, hoping that the police station would transfer Ribs into a formal undercover police officer.

Within the Chicago police system, only undercover agents are officially recognized. Although there are many informants, they are all developed privately by detectives. In legal terms, the police department does not recognize the existence of informants.

Therefore, it is very important to allow Ribs to switch jobs and become a formal undercover police officer.

Once he becomes a formal police officer, Booth will have more security in doing anything in the future and can also receive a good basic salary.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Jerry finally finished writing all the reports and was about to send them out by email.

He looked at Director Michael's email address and suddenly thought of something.

Jerry clearly remembered that Reeves said that when the Python Gang attacked Sifir Park, the police station transferred three patrolmen on duty nearby at the same time.

Although transferring the patrolman did not affect the outcome of the matter, Jerry always felt that it was very strange.

Jerry is still a little worried about Michael, the chief of the Inglewood police station, and suspects that the chief is secretly colluding with the Python Gang.

In Chicago, gangs bribe police officers from time to time. Not to mention a police chief, even prosecutors and council members have been reported to have connections with gangs.

If the information about Ribbs is revealed directly to Michael now, and if the director is really involved with the Python Gang, Ribbs will be in danger.

Therefore, after much deliberation, Jerry finally changed the name of Ribs in all the emails to the code name "Brown Bear".

In this way, even if Director Michael has been bribed by the Python Gang, Reeves will not be immediately exposed to danger.

A few days later, Jerry received a promotion notice. He was promoted from an ordinary detective to the chief of the precinct, with the authority to supervise all the detectives in the precinct.

The Inglewood police station hasn't solved a case this big in several years.

Jerry's destruction of the manufacturing den of the special drug "Mint Candy" was naturally a great achievement, and Director Michael praised him highly.

But there was no mention of the undercover police application mentioned in Jerry's report.

Jerry didn't dare to be too radical and didn't mention it again. After thinking about it, he decided to be safe and wait and see. If Reeves' identity was exposed, it would be even more troublesome.

At the same time, on the other side, the Python Gang’s most profitable “mint candy” business was shut down for no reason.

The boss Raymond had a gloomy face and called the second-in-command Xuezhai to his side to ask about the situation.

"Blood debt, I gave you such an important project, how on earth did you do it?"

Raymond loudly questioned, "You didn't tell me that using the perfume shop as a cover to make new drugs was very secretive! It was absolutely foolproof and nothing could go wrong. How did the police catch you like this?"

For a moment, Xuezhai didn't know what was going on. He touched the back of his head and stammered, "I don't understand! It was fine before, how come the police came and shut down the store without any signs..."

When the boss, Raymond, heard this, his eyes suddenly darkened: "If that's the case, then the police must have known about this in advance. I guess someone sold you out."

Blood Debt thought for a moment and said, "Yes! There must be a traitor, most likely a police informant. Otherwise, how could the police have rushed straight into the perfume shop?"

"Who is this traitor? Do you know?" Raymond asked.

I think about the blood debt over and over again.

The few drug-making brothers under him were quite reliable and would not betray him. As for Anna, this woman had already died at the scene, so she couldn't be a traitor!

Moreover, he was always very careful when picking up the goods, and the other members of the gang had no idea about this drug manufacturing site.

After thinking about it over and over again, I still can't figure out who the traitor could be.

But he suddenly had an idea.

This matter is completely blamed on Ribs!

Regardless of whether Ribbs is a traitor or not, as long as this hat is put on him, he will definitely die.

In this way, not only can he reduce some of his own responsibility for dereliction of duty, but he can also get rid of Ribs in a natural way, killing two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, Xuezhai immediately replied: "Boss, I think there is someone who is highly suspicious..."

"who?"

"Reeves," Blood Debt said, "This guy has only been in our gang for a short time, and he always goes to the perfume shop to buy scented candles. I suspect he might know something."

Raymond frowned, thinking.

As soon as Ribs joined the Python Gang, he did several big things for the gang.

At that time, when they were fighting with the Outlaws Gang in the park, Reeves was killing them with great pleasure, not like an undercover informant at all... Moreover, on weekdays, Reeves's Group 13 had the best sales volume.

Raymond had no reason to believe that this man, who could fight and kill, and yet could still do business on a daily basis, was a police informant.

What's more, the boss Raymond has long coveted the body of the white guy Ribs.

"Blood debt, I still say the same thing. You said Libus is a traitor, do you have any evidence?" Raymond asked.

"This... I don't have any evidence yet." Xuezhi replied.

Raymond was speechless for a moment. He was already very dissatisfied with the blood debt of this second-in-command.

Last time, when Crazy Donkey was killed, the blood debt had no evidence and they wanted to kill Ribs. This time, there was no evidence and they said Ribs was a traitor and informant.

Raymond also felt that this blood debt seemed to be directed at Reeves, or that this blood debt just wanted to get rid of those who were not good for him.

In gangs, internal fighting among subordinates is common. The boss Raymond has always turned a blind eye to it, but this internal fighting must not affect the interests of the gang.

At the moment, Raymond highly recognizes Reeves' abilities, and even feels that Reeves is fully capable of replacing Blood Debt and serving as the second-in-command of the gang.

Raymond earnestly taught: "No evidence? Then we can't just guess! We want to catch the traitor, but we can't let our brothers down, right?"

Since the boss said so, there was nothing to say about the blood debt. I could only bite the bullet and say, "Boss, what you said makes sense..."

Adhere to the principle of trusting people when you employ them and don't employ people if you don't trust them.

At this time, Raymond also wanted to investigate Ribs carefully. If Ribs really had a clean background, then let him take the place of the blood debt.

Then, he said to the blood debt: "Let's do this! You investigate thoroughly. If there is evidence, I will deal with Libus personally and will not show any mercy!"

"Okay! I understand, boss. I'll start investigating right away!" Xuezhai immediately agreed and turned to leave the Python Gang's lair.
