Chapter 67: The Beauty Standard
The FBI in the United States is quite overbearing in its actions.
And even though it was fabricated evidence, at least the paperwork and procedures were completely fine, so after Zhang Yuan was taken away, Wang Yi also stood up and said to the anxious Mrs. Zhang and Lin Lei comfortingly
"Don't worry, let's go to the consulate to seek help first, and then find out more about the situation."
Wang Yi's calmness calmed the two of them down a lot.
Although Lin Lei looks smart and capable, he is essentially just here to do odd jobs. Now that he has encountered such a troublesome situation, he must be at a loss.
Fortunately, Wang Yi is here, otherwise they really wouldn’t know what to do for a moment.
(Note: Because it does not involve any sensitive issues, some of the process will be downplayed. Now that the FBI has pulled off the fig leaf and is following their own procedures , it is actually very difficult to deal with it because the procedures are complete, just like we arrested foreigners according to our procedures.)
…
After confirming that there were no procedural problems on the other party and that he could only help with coordination, Wang Yi declined the suggestion of helping to hire a lawyer and took a few people directly to the well-known Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher law firm in Los Angeles.
Wang Yi knew that the consulate could also help provide lawyers, and would certainly be more diligent and conscientious, but this time he wanted not only diligence and conscientiousness, but also the power of the law firm itself, and...
Local attributes!
The lawyer provided by the consulate is not suitable to serve as a witness for some of Wang Yi's subsequent events.
"Don't worry. You should have heard that I'm making games. I still have the money to hire a lawyer."
After arriving at the law firm, Wang Yi smiled at Mrs. Zhang and Lin Lei.
Qian Yayan was looking at Wang Yi with sparkling eyes at this time, and felt that he looked so handsome when he was in charge of the situation.
So domineering, I like it very much~
Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher is considered a top law firm in the United States and can provide a variety of services.
Of course, this requires money as a prerequisite. Although Wang Yi is not a wealthy man now, he has no problem paying the lawyer fees!
The legal fee of $1,500 per hour was considered quite good business in such a top law firm, so naturally the reception was very good.
"Please rest assured, sir. We will do our best in this matter. However, we need to understand the situation first. Believe us, this won't take much time. We will be more confident after we understand it clearly."
A middle-aged lawyer with blond hair and a meticulously slicked-back hair comforted Wang Yi in a calm tone.
"Of course, since we chose you, we believe in your professionalism. We can wait here."
Wang Yi said very readily that billing had already started and now every minute and every second counted.
“Thank you for your understanding.”
Lawyer John, with blond slicked-back hair, nodded professionally and started her work. She also called a clerk to come in and serve coffee and snacks to Wang Yi and the others.
It has to be said that lawyers from top law firms are very professional and have a wide range of connections. After making a series of phone calls, his originally relaxed expression began to become serious.
This time, it's not just an ordinary business case, it's a bit troublesome...
However, for American lawyers, as long as they are paid, they dare to do anything, even if they know there is something complicated behind it, they still dare to take it!
However, the employer needs to be informed of the difficulty and success rate. Lawyers are not omnipotent...
…
Meanwhile, in the Compton district of Los Angeles.
Although the Compton area is not remote, the security environment here is quite poor due to the large number of gangs.
Gang fights and other violent incidents occur from time to time.
In broad daylight, all kinds of drug addicts and homeless people lie on the streets like zombies.
Many people feel trembling when they stand up.
Alida is a black man in the gang, and because he dares to fight and kill, he has a high status.
"Hmm? What is this?"
After inspecting the site and checking the shipment situation and returning to his office, Yalida saw a silver ring on his desk with some confusion.
It wasn't here when he left, and he didn't know who put it here.
However, when he looked at the ring, he inexplicably had an urge to wear it on his finger.
Since he had thought of it, he might as well do it. As a black man from the slums who had received little education, he didn't want to think too much.
However, the moment he put on the ring, suddenly blue lines appeared on the surface of the silver ring, shining with dazzling light.
“Oh shit!”
Yalida instinctively felt that something was wrong and wanted to pull it out, but found that he could not pull it out no matter what. Then suddenly there was a bang in his head, as if he had received a huge impact, and then his head went blank, and then he lost all consciousness.
After a while, Alida, who had fainted on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes.
There was just a strange flicker of light red in his eyes, which dimmed after a moment, and then he slowly crawled up.
Half a dozen different silver trinkets were swept out from under the table.
After hanging these small accessories on different parts of his body, Yali Da looked around the house and found a mobile phone and took it.
"Are you in?"
'Ali Da' asked.
"Now that you're in, you should be thankful that I have slowly transferred the data to a server on the dark web in advance to support you. Otherwise, it would be a bit troublesome."
Lin Shiqin's voice came from the phone.
The 'Yalida' at this time is naturally Li Yao!
If it was a vengeful spirit that was born naturally in this world, even if it was as powerful as Lin Shiqin's who appeared in special places before, it would be quite difficult to achieve the effect in front of us.
But no matter what, they are now Wang Yi's summons.
The inscriptions temporarily strengthened on the silver ring, coupled with various pendants with different functions, are enough to arm Li Yao to the teeth!
These were originally in Wang Yi's own storage space. They were contraband that were not shown during security checks and various registrations, so he was not afraid of being discovered.
After realizing that something was wrong, Wang Yi found a blind spot in the surveillance camera and dropped Li Yao's ring and some matching items.
With the help of Wang Yi, Li Yao rolled these things through the sewer and arrived at the location locked by Lin Shiqin, and then completed this occupation.
"This is not the body that the boss built for me. I can only use it for a limited time. I have to hurry up. What's the situation over there now?"
Li Yao controlled this body to adapt for a while, put his mobile phone on the table, and began to use the enhancements in the silver pendants.
First, Wang Yi created and improved the "knowledge infusion". At that time, Wang Yi's various fighting and grappling skills, various shooting and individual skills, combined with some knight's combat skills from the other world, began to be input all at once.
Li Yao had to stand still on the table for a while before he could digest it.
Although it is true that he is a summoned creature, it is still a bit stressful to absorb this little trash born in this world. His strength is not as good as Lin Shiqin's.
Afterwards, after a set of BUFF enhancements such as Blessing of Constant Strength, Blessing of the King, Muscle Strengthening, and Lightning Reflexes were added, he felt the earth-shaking changes in his body again!
This body is meant to be used temporarily, so it doesn't matter if you overdraw it.
He can only use this body for half a month at most.
"Okay, what's next?"
After getting used to it, Li Yao continued to ask questions to Lin Shiqin, and then followed her arrangements. This was Wang Yi's order.
Wang Yi didn't want to reveal any flaws while at the law firm.
"Look at this person clearly. This is Agu, a big flour merchant from Mexico. He was arrested by a sting operation and is now being held in an FBI safe house in Los Angeles together with Zhang Yuan. When this person was lured, a reward of 100 million US dollars was offered on live TV to rescue him. Your target is him."
A typical Indian face appeared in front of Li Yao.
"Looks like I'm lucky. I can just use the normal method."
Li Yao obviously understood Lin Shiqin's arrangements and plans. He originally thought that there would be some local T virus spread action, but now it seems that he can save the trouble.
Among the several silver pendants, one has this function.
After being rescued by Wang Yi and having his obsession resolved, Li Yao's only goal now is to serve Wang Yi, and completing the mission is his highest principle.
After being left alone for so long, the humanity has dissipated. Although it has recovered, there is also a sense of indifference that was not there before.
As for how much killing and destruction it would cause, that was not within his consideration!
"In addition, I have arranged some helpers for you. Each of them is a retired Marine who has participated in actual combat in the Ayi battlefield. They are very interested in this bounty, so your first step is to subdue them."
Pictures of several more people kept appearing, and their identity information, home addresses, and the approximate area where they were currently located appeared in front of Li Yao.
"Understood . Be careful to destroy the traces and don't get caught."
"Who do you think I am..."
