Chapter 89 Conspiracy
If I remember correctly, this kid seems to have connections with several well-known street forces, including the gangster Tei from 42nd Street and the Italian Crow family from Sicily. How about...
Bailden's eyes flickered back and forth uncertainly. He was now like a grasshopper thrown into a frying pan. He needed more stepping stones to escape. An eight-claw alone was not enough to get him out of trouble.
There must be at least three to four more criminals of the same level as Ba Zhao, or even bigger ones, who can be held in his hands before Baiden can say that he did not spend this time in vain when facing questioning from the police station.
Waste of time has significant results, thereby avoiding becoming a scapegoat.
So can the guy on the opposite side take advantage of it?
Roang didn't know what Baiden was thinking at the moment. After all, unlike his opponent, he didn't have official channels to obtain such relatively confidential information as to the type and number of major cases in his jurisdiction.
Unlike Hank, he has close relationships with many big guys inside and outside the neighborhood, and has a sideways understanding of the current situation in the South District.
Just relying on the grass-top team he and Hicks had just formed, they were able to vaguely detect that the wind direction in the neighborhood was wrong, which was already keen enough.
He did know that several forces on the street were attacking each other, but how intense the conflicts in the neighborhood were. Roang only learned the truth from Perry today.
An astonishing fifty-seven bloody conflicts!
This was still done with guns. As for how many ordinary fights there were, Perry did not mention them, but Roang estimated that there were at least a hundred.
Because Hicks told him that recently, the private clinics in the South District have been basically full of people, the prices have been raised a lot, and the doctors there are making crazy profits.
Well, the so-called private clinics in the Southern District are actually underground unlicensed doctors.
They will rent a relatively secluded house, preferably one with a basement, and then they will recruit clients and treat and prescribe medicines for people in the South District after charging lower fees than regular hospitals.
Of course, there is also a more hidden type, which is to deal with injuries such as gunshot wounds that are not suitable for direct treatment in regular hospitals, because in regular hospitals, records need to be recorded.
When the time comes, the police detectives from the murder scene will be able to find the approximate scope of the suspect by comparing the scene report with the medical records, and then carry out an arrest operation.
Therefore, the fees of this kind of clinic are much higher than those of normal hospitals, but the business is pretty good. Who calls this South District?
As he thought about it, Luo Ang frowned unconsciously. He felt that if Perry hadn't suddenly burst out today and told the current situation of the neighborhood, he probably wouldn't have known that the chaos outside had reached such an extent.
There are so many bloody conflicts in the jurisdiction of the 21st Precinct alone. What is the current situation in the entire Southern District?
There has been no official news report on such a fierce conflict, and even the gossip has not been circulated to the outside world. Coupled with Perry's words, it is obvious that someone is trying to cover up the truth, and it is very likely that someone is trying to cover up the truth.
It's the top brass of the police department...
After thinking quickly, Luo Ang came to the same opinion as Baiden. He also believed that the top brass of the police station were probably not helping the various sub-bureaus under the Southern District. Instead, they seemed to be deliberately conniving, or in other words
He is deliberately exacerbating the situation.
Luo Ang narrowed his eyes. He knew the style of the police detectives here in the South District. Among several branches, led by the 26th Branch, which governs the communities near Jackson Park, a considerable number of people have fallen to the point where they are no longer on the same level as gang members.
Both.
There was even a team called the Round Hat Gang spawned from the police detectives, whose members behaved worse than those on the street. They specialized in bullying poor people in public housing areas and snatching stolen money from street gangs. They were recognized as the most unscrupulous people.
One of the most popular organizations in recruiting people in the Southern District.
So much so that in the public housing area, a community dominated by blacks, the Round Hat Gang has a worse reputation than the Yankee Gang. If they are more hated by black people than white supremacist organizations, you know how they behave in daily life.
It's time to act.
Roang knew more clearly about the 21st Precinct. Although there were people like Hank and Bilden who were willing to do things, they also had Irene, Erwin and other good detectives who were doing serious work.
But in the entire precinct, there are also people who collect dirty money and do dirty things, like the white police detective Caminet who inexplicably gave away his profits to Kevin.
When Luo Ang was chatting with the old woman Pratt, he made inquiries intentionally or unintentionally, and learned that this police detective seemed to be very close to the Round Hat Gang, but he had not officially joined them.
Anyway, from Pratt's weird tone of voice and the subconscious curl of her lips when she talked about him, Roang could tell that she disliked Caminet.
Even in the Southern District, the 21st Precinct, which has always had a good reputation, has various problems. You can imagine what the atmosphere is like in other police station precincts that are far inferior to it.
With such a group of police detectives here, how could Luo Ang believe that they would be the kind of people who are ignorant of street affairs and only focus on catching criminals?
In the city of Chicago, the area most closely related to the streets is the South Side.
There are many police detectives in the South District who have been corrupted by street gangsters with US dollars. How could they not care about the current chaotic situation? It is so chaotic now that it is difficult to do all kinds of underground businesses.
When the business is bad, the police detectives will have less US dollars. According to Luo Ang's understanding, they should have reported to the superiors long ago and suppressed the situation that interfered with their money making.
However, the chaos was not suppressed. On the contrary, the top brass of the police department seemed not to realize how serious the problem was here, and even took the initiative to contact the Chicago Times to suppress reporting on the problems in the South Side neighborhood.
This is clearly allowing the situation to progress, and intentionally or unintentionally making it more violent!
If Rohan knew about Baiden's conversations with Ben Bernek in recent days, he would be more confident in his judgment on the whole matter.
The big boss who was already clearing his name suddenly ignored the warning of the district police chief and resolutely worsened the problems in the neighborhood. It is possible that he got a signal from the top of the police station!
There were countless thoughts in his mind, but time did not pass long, and the clock on the wall only ticked for five minutes. While Roang was thinking about it carefully, Hank had already come to his office with Bairden, and had a conversation between them.
private conversation.
From the perspective of everyone in the hall, Hank was leaning on the table in his office, looking down at Baildon sitting in the chair in front of him. From this look, he seemed to have gained a lot from the conversation between the two parties.
The advantages.
In fact, because Hank lowered the blinds in advance, everyone outside could not clearly see the gloomy look on his face and his hands clenched into fists.
This guy, Bairden, had made several conditions with him in just five minutes. One of the requirements was that the two of them work together in the next few days to try to solve the chaos in the neighborhood. Hank had no objection to this.
He also hopes that the problems in the neighborhood can be quelled as soon as possible.
But the conditions that Baildon proposed next made him really angry. This bastard actually wanted Hank to hand over to him the criminal evidence of a few people he knew on the street.
"FXXK! What on earth do you want to do?"
"You should know that I can't possibly have evidence of Errietto's crime, and under the current circumstances, you actually want to arrest the leader of the Cermak Gang?"
"Holy shxt! Are you crazy or did I hear wrongly?"
Bailden leaned back in his chair and had enough time to listen to what Hank had to say, and then he said: "Hey, relax, we have just started negotiating, there has to be some back and forth, right?"
"Since you don't want to arrest Elietto, then skip him. Morris, the loudmouth on 52nd Street, should be fine. He is not the friend you grew up with. I don't think you will.
Do you want to save him too?"
