Chapter 837 Black and white take it all

The subsequent investigation took some time.

In fact, it was Luke who delayed on his own initiative.

She put Marybeth out in the open.

The killer is easy to find, but the person behind the scenes is the trouble.

The woman who met with the old director had long been on the FBI's wanted list.

Luke immediately called Winston, the manager of the Continental Hotel in New York.

It was learned that this female killer was very skilled and became one of the world's top killers in just a few years.

And he never failed.

But for special reasons, Winston cannot reveal her name.

But Luke also got another piece of news. This killer was very mysterious and seemed to be on a commission. (Acting alone)

There is no organization behind her.

In addition, Winston was really considerate and told Luke about the bounty on Marybeth.

Because mainland hotels basically do not accept missions to assassinate officials.

So Marybeth’s bounty is on the black market.

A killer has already taken the order.

Marybeth is still investigating the case.

Some clues were also obtained from the informants who were killed.

The old director was looking for a family of three, but the man had been killed.

Children were secretly detained and women were forced to work as technicians.

But five years ago, the woman escaped, but she had a car accident before she got far.

Then the woman disappeared.

Malibeth is investigating at the hospital where the woman was taken after the car accident.

The doctor here gave her a surprising answer.

The woman woke up with amnesia.

Because the brain suffered a strong impact.

But she herself had also undergone a dramatic change.

Acquired savant syndrome.

Because of the blow to her brain, she became more agile and intelligent.

Shortly after recovering, the woman knocked out the security guard and disappeared.

While Marybeth was investigating, Lilith also sent the information she had found to Luke.

The female killer that the old director saw that day was this amnesiac woman.

Her name is Edith.

This was her previous name.

But his name after becoming a killer is unknown.

Now, the truth is coming to light.

Not long after, Charon (Winston's henchman) calls Luke.

"She accepted the mission, and her target is Malibeth."

Luke immediately understood who Charon was talking about.

It's Edith.

Marybeth posted all the evidence on the wall of her temporary residence.

At midnight, she was still staring at the wall, thinking about clues to the case.

But at this time, Edith had already sneaked into her apartment.

Just as Malibeth was still lost in thought, she suddenly heard a noise.

The window glass was broken by a stone.

When Marybeth reacted, she also discovered Edith who had broken in.

Although Marybeth received advance warning, she was a civilian after all.

The gap in combat power between him and the world's top killers is extremely huge.

After the two fought in close combat for a few times, Marybeth was stabbed in the abdomen by Edith with a dagger.

Suddenly, Malibeth fell to the ground helplessly.

Just as Edith was about to pick up the pistol, he saw various messages on the wall.

Especially the photos of their family of three.

Suddenly, memories of the past rushed into her brain.

At this moment, all of Edith's memories came back.

Five years ago, their family of three sneaked into the United States.

But when they entered the United States, the human traffickers killed her husband.

They took her children away, separated them, and forced her to work as a technician without paying her.

Edith suddenly looked at her ankles.

There was the special pattern the gang had tattooed on her ankle.

This means that the woman is owned by the gang.

If technicians are legalized, there will be more such organizations to force ordinary people to become technicians.

This is too harmful to society.

It will cause countless families to be broken up.

Just as Edith was immersed in her memories, she suddenly heard a sound outside the door.

So Edith decisively left the apartment and gave up on finishing off Malibeth.

The person who came was Luke.

Marybeth is not dead yet and is rescued by Luke.

It's not that Luke is incapable of stopping Edith, he did it on purpose.

Assassinating an official from an important U.S. department is a big deal.

Moreover, Luke showed up in time and saved Marybeth, and got the favor from the IRS.

In the future, I will have my own network of contacts in the Ministry of Finance.

As for the Minister of Finance, that’s not important. The people who really do the work are the heads of various departments.

Financial Crimes Division, Marybeth is the head here.

Anything related to financial crime is under her jurisdiction.

This favor is so worth it.

Of course, besides Winston and Charon, only Lilith knew about this.

People took the initiative to give the information to Luke as a favor.

Look, this is the world of martial arts. It’s not about fighting and killing, but about the ways of the world.

Luke can handle both good and bad things, and his main focus is on human relationships.

Edith couldn't escape either, so he was sent to Europe and handed over to Lynch, which could be considered as developing an assassin brother.

The real man behind the scenes is the gangster boss on the border between Mexico and the United States.

They deal in human trafficking, drug trafficking, and arms trafficking.

Because Malibeth's investigation was hot on his heels, he placed an order on the black market to kill Malibeth.

Now that he knows that Marybeth is not dead, he is furious and cursing the middleman.

The middlemen are also very tough. Either you wait or you die, otherwise the money will not be refunded.

Of course, if the employer dies, the money will not be refunded...

The black man cursed loudly, but it was all just rage and impotence.

He had no choice but to let his men carry out the mission.

But before killing Marybeth, he still had to deal with the hostages first.

Those children who were used to blackmail the technicians cannot be left behind.

The assassination of Marybeth has become a big deal.

Harris has called a press conference at Luke's request.

Together with the Ministry of Finance, they are determined to solve the case.

This scared the gangster boss.

He is not afraid of the Ministry of Finance because he pays taxes on all the money he has on the table on time.

The money secretly transferred is all in cash and cannot be traced.

Large amounts of cash were sent to Mexico.

The Ministry of Finance cannot find it even if it wants to.

Harris didn't care much about this matter at first, but since Luke had set up the ladder, he naturally had to support his little man.

As a result, the case progressed very smoothly.

There were press conferences every other day.

The gangster boss became anxious.

Send your men to clean up those kids.

But they never expected that they would encounter the most elite and mysterious department of the FBI, the Special Affairs Unit.

The vampire special forces team led by Eric and Nisha went straight to the place where the children were imprisoned.

The Special Affairs Office plays the main role, and the FBI's HRT team is responsible for rescuing the children.

The Air Force provides air cover and transport missions.

Everyone should share the benefits. This is what Luke has always advocated.

Gangsters were either shot dead or caught.

The children were rescued safely.

With Luke's willing cooperation, the media also rushed to the scene to report.

This human smuggling incident became famous internationally.
