Chapter 103 - 93: The Corrupt Detective
Richard coordinated the middle ground, persuading the police to send a representative to plant the evidence and, on the side, mentioned they were willing to give them half of the proceeds. The police then sent a representative.
This time, the police representative turned out to be an old man.
Gao Yi had anticipated everything, but he never expected the police to send an old man as their representative. The man appeared to be at least in his sixties or seventies, his hair and beard both white, looking listless and purposeless.
However, Martin and Richard became very excited upon seeing the old man.
Richard moved closer to Gao Yi and whispered beside him, "He is the evidence expert, Christopher Getney. Everyone at the Los Angeles Police Department calls him a master detective. He’s a real sleuth often employed by the FBI. The fact that he’s here shows that the Los Angeles Police have put forth their utmost sincerity. Do you know why he’s never agreed to join the FBI? Because he’s the biggest corrupt cop in Los Angeles."
After finishing, he patted Gao Yi’s shoulder, then Richard stepped forward to greet Christopher, extending his hand from a distance. After shaking hands, Richard pointed at Gao Yi and whispered a few words in Christopher’s ear.
Christopher glanced at Gao Yi, then walked directly over to him.
"It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a sensible young man."
Christopher spoke with a bit of an old man’s haughtiness, but what he meant was to express his approval of Gao Yi.
After sizing up Lin Xianghua and then Luca, Christopher continued in a listless voice, "In Los Angeles, don’t mess with people you shouldn’t, and for those you can, just give a heads-up. We can cooperate."
