The Wolf of Los Angeles

Chapter 147: Breeding to death (please give me a monthly vote)

In the morning, Hawke sat at the dining table, eating a simple breakfast made by Caroline and looking at the newspaper Edward bought.

Edward sat on the side of the window holding an AR15 rifle.

Caroline poured a few glasses of milk and brought it over to the dining table.

Here is a security guard who was transferred by Brian, and the three of them lived in the villa last night.

Almost all newspapers' front page headlines are the invasion of Van Wagren and Robert Redford.

Caroline also picked up a few copies to read, and after reading for a while, he said, "The report forms are different, the article formats are different, but the subject content is surprisingly consistent, and Wagren and Redford are severely punished."

"It's very simple. Both sides are competing, but neither side wants to completely collapse the film and television and entertainment industries."

"That's right." Brian said with his cell phone downstairs, "The point of this matter is Pope, not Hollywood."

He sat at the dining table: "Just just got the news, just half an hour ago, the FBI intervened in the case on the grounds of receiving a call from the victim, and stopped Wagren's car on the coastal road, and both sides broke out In the gun battle, Wagren was shot dead on the spot. ”

Hawke was not surprised at all. Campos got the thing and searched Wagren's body, but Wagren did not carry a gun at all.

But he wouldn't say it, nor did he need to say it.

The moment the video was played on Ace News, the contract between Hawke and Brian was completed.

Caroline truly saw the cruel side, put down the newspaper in her hand, and subconsciously asked: "Is it really shot dead because of resisting with a gun?"

"With the FBI's professionalism, it must be."

Caroline swallowed and asked, "Will I be killed?"

Hawke pointed to Brian: "Did you see him? The biggest shield in front of us. If he is fine, we will be fine. If something happens to him, you can run away quickly."

Brian was surprised: "You won't run away?"

"Erika will definitely help you get revenge." Hawke said seriously: "I want to help you get revenge, too."

Brian said, "I didn't expect you to be so loyal."

Edward interrupted at this time and asked, "Where is there another Redford?"

Brian simply said: "As soon as the news aired last night, this **** boarded the plane from Los Angeles International Airport and took the nearest flight to Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas, and would probably transfer to France."

Hawke remembered one thing: "There is no extradition treaty between America and France, is he going to be the second Roman Polansky?"

"Who knows if he can go to France?" Brian shrugged: "Polansky is a personal issue, and Redford has many people and things involved."

He thought for a while and said, "The opposite side obviously wants to shut up. Even the forces in the FBI have been used. It is impossible to get rid of Wagren and let Redford live."

Hawke casually said, "Being suicide? Or is it overseas, there is this possibility."

Caroline interrupted, “Is this politics?”

Brian's cell phone rang at this time. After he answered it, he said a few words and quickly hung up: "I'm going to the law firm, and several more victims came to me and asked me to sue Waglen on their behalf."

Hawke asked, "Waglen died, can the compensation for prosecution continue?"

Brian nodded: "Of course, although criminal liability cannot be pursued, civil compensation is still possible. This guy has no wife, no children, and has left tens of millions of dollars in property. Instead of being taken away by all the pigs, we should share it with it. A piece of cake.”

He said: "Wait for a few days, the public relations fee I promised will definitely be paid."

Hawke knew very well that if the other party wanted to get this matter out of the media and the public's perspective as soon as possible, he would definitely deal with the victims quickly and compensate Wagren and Redford's property, which was the easiest and most convenient.

...

Bahamas, Nassau.

At the Hilton Hotel near the airport, several police cars suddenly came to the door. A middle-aged bald policeman quickly entered the hotel with several subordinates.

The lobby manager hurried over to receive the reception.

The middle-aged policeman showed his ID and said directly: "Someone in the opposite building found that there was a person hanging in a guest room in your hotel, and he called the police."

The lobby manager's face changed and he asked, "Sir Kewell, can you confirm?"

This is a US-owned hotel, and Cowell has to be cautious: "I sent someone to see the other side, please wait."

Not long after, witnesses and two policemen entered the hotel lobby.

One of the policemen told Cowell: "There is indeed someone, on the fifth floor."

Cowell told the lobby manager: "We are going to go up the fifth floor to check the situation."

The hotel manager rushed over at this time, and after learning about the situation, he replaced the lobby manager to negotiate with Cowell.

Then, he took his group to the fifth floor and found the corresponding room. He knocked on the door without any movement, so he asked someone to come and open the door.

The door opened, and two policemen drew their guns and took the lead in the suite.

Others entered one after another.

The windows and curtains of the suite bedroom were open, and under the ceiling fan with colorful lights, a long leather shoe lace was hanging down. On the shoe laces were hung with a man about 60 years old, and he looked dead.

"Closing the scene." Sheriff Cowell took out his gloves and put them on, and ordered: "Inspecting the scene."

All of them, including the hotel manager, were invited to the door of the room.

The two policemen put the person down first.

A policeman found the deceased's bag, which contained a passport, and he glanced at it and said in surprise: "Boss, this guy is Robert Redford, a Hollywood star and a big director!"

Cowell went over to look at the face of the body, and then looked at the ID photo: "I have watched the old movie "The Great Gatsby", and it is indeed him."

Another said, "Here, there is a piece of paper here, it seems to be a suicide note."

Cowell went over to see.

The handwriting on it is relatively sloppy, with only a few lines.

Cowell carefully identified it and it looked like a suicide note, with the general meaning on it, regretting what he did and regretting the harm caused to those minors. He dreamed of God last night that God wanted to send him to hell. In order to apologize and atone for sins, choose to end your life.

Finally, there is a last word, willing to use his property to compensate those victims.

Cowell didn't want to get into trouble, so he asked someone to put all the suicide notes and documents into the bag of documents and pack them up.

He took out his cell phone, called his boss, and suggested that he notify the foreign affairs department to negotiate with the US Embassy.

If the US Embassy agrees with the claim of suicide, the case will be closed smoothly soon.

Not long after, his immediate boss accompanied the US personnel.

After inspecting the scene, the two sides met secretly and basically reached an agreement. Hollywood star, director and producer Robert Redford committed suicide due to guilt.

This result will not be announced immediately, but both sides confirmed the direction of the investigation and the subsequent work will progress very quickly.

...

Sacramento, Granit Bay.

Lawrence Pope carried the heavy suitcase and put it on a station wagon.

Lawyer Doni and his ex-wife Linda each brought their bags to the garage and put them in the trunk.

A cell phone ringing rang, Doni answered a call and said to Pope: "The divorce agreement has been approved, the property division has been fair, and everything has gone smoothly."

Pope came over and shook his hands: "Thank you, old friend."

Doni looked thick and reliable: "Although some **** gave up on you, I will not give up on you. I will always debate for you. I dare not say that I guarantee to be innocent. I will strive for a short sentence."

Linda answered, “He deserves his sin.”

Pope's face was bitter and said nothing.

Before the legal process began, he did everything he could do and left everything he could to his wife and daughter.

The sound of footsteps came, and the three of them stopped talking tacitly, but Catherine came over with her suitcase.

Catherine didn't sleep well last night, yawning constantly, and complaining: "Why did she suddenly travel to New York? I wasn't ready."

Pope comforted: "My uncle has prepared a big party for you, go."

Catherine got into the car directly.

Pope patted Doni's arm and said, "Please take them to the airport."

Doni nodded and got into the driver's seat.

Linda went to the co-pilot and closed the door directly.

The garage door rose and the station wagon drove out.

After the car walked away, Pope closed the door, came to the hall, and looked at the road in front of his house.

In just over a dozen minutes, several black SUVs with FBI logo drove over and parked on the side of the road.

Pope was already prepared and opened the door and walked straight towards them.

The leading FBI director showed the procedures to Pope, and asked someone to handcuff him and directly took him into the car.

The station wagon drove to the airport and turned into the parking lot. When the car was parked, Linda looked back.

My daughter, Catherine, was lying in the back row and was already asleep.

Linda whispered: "Let him become a serious prisoner, and you will never get out when you stay inside."

"Of course." Doni reached out and hugged Linda's shoulder: "I won't be an attorney for this case, and the law firm will hand it over to a newbie."

Linda hangs his neck with her hands and the two kiss each other passionately. It took them a long time to separate.

Doni said, "When the case is over, you come back and we will get married."

The two of them had been hooked up long ago.

Linda got angry, but it was not suitable for this place, so she could only say, "Place Catherine and I will come back quietly."

"A little earlier." Donnie looked at his watch: "Hurry up, don't delay the flight."

Linda wakes up Catherine, and Doni helps to drag her suitcase and walks towards the terminal entrance together.

The mother and daughter walked in front and followed the lawyer, but their eyes frequently fell on Catherine.

White girls develop early.

Doni was in a very good mood, and Pope's property and the mother and daughter were all their own.

As for Pope, can you come out again when you go in?

...

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Beverly Avenue, in Bryan's villa.

Hawke hung up the phone and said to Caroline and Edward: "Just getting confirmable news, Robert Redford hanged himself in a hotel near Nassau International Airport this morning, leaving a suicide note claiming to commit suicide for fear of guilt. .”

Caroline was already numb: "He deserves to die, such a scumbag!"

Edward asked, "Where is that Lawrence Pope?"

"I was asked by the FBI to assist in the investigation." Hawke also got the news from Brian's phone call: "He may not die, the masked person will be unable to tell for a while, Wagren and Redford are both dead. , Pope is expected to fight against all charges."

Caroline gradually understood the rules of the game: "Will her wife, daughter and family be well taken care of?"

Thinking of so many so-called suicide cases in his previous life, Hawke said: "It is also possible that Pope will commit suicide after the incident cools down."

Edward remembered what Hawke said: "What kind of shot eight times behind the scenes?"

Hawke replied casually: "It is also possible to hang himself on the bed in prison."

Caroline found herself on a pirate ship and asked quietly, "We'll be there..."

Edward suddenly laughed out loud.

Hawke asked her, “Don’t you want a high-paying job?”

Caroline immediately corrected her attitude, and slapped her fair little tiger teeth with her face: "Tell me, who do you want me to destroy?"

Suddenly, Edward stood up with an AR rifle and reminded: "Boss, someone is here."

The security guard near the door called out on the intercom, "Mr. Osmond, there is a woman who wants to see you. Her name is Rooney Chasen, who calls herself the director of the full speed PR company."

Caroline frowned: "What are she doing?"

Hawke pondered for a moment: "Let her come in."

A middle-aged woman dressed in fashionable clothes and had high feet, entered the courtyard through the gate and soon arrived at the door.

Caroline went over and opened the door.

Rooney looked at the beautiful woman who showed off herself and boasted, "I deserve to be the one I taught."

Caroline gave in without expression.

Rooney looked at Lao Hei first because he was holding an AR, but she was not panicked at all and turned to Hawke.

There is nothing surprising about people not looking down on them, just the kind of appearance that is common on the street.

Hawke pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit."

Rooney nodded slightly and sat opposite Hawke.

She asked directly, "You did it with Caroline to bury the nails?"

Hawke shook his head: "Carolyn proposed."

Rooney turned her head and stared at Caroline in a slight surprise.

Although the person who proposed was Hawk, how could Caroline refute it in this case?

She raised her small chin, looking very proud of me.

Rooney nodded again to confirm: "I taught very well."

Hawke asked her in, not to listen to her boast, and asked, "You have something to do with me?"

"I want to see the person who has caused me such a crushing defeat." Rooney said, "Even yesterday afternoon, I thought I was going to win, but I lost a lot."

Hawke sat here: "See now?"

Rooney took out her business card and pushed it to Hawke from the low table: "Can you exchange your business card?"

Hawke took out a business card and gave it to her.

Rooney said: "We have no personal conflicts, and we may have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

In her opinion, there is no justice or evil on both sides, but it just serves different employers.

Hawke smiled and said nothing.

Rooney put away Hawke's business card and stood up to say goodbye.

Caroline took the initiative to send her away.

When the two went out, the conflict between women was sharper than the conflict with men.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the needle is against the wheat.

Rooney whispered as she walked, "You Bichi, now you betray the full speed, and one day you will betray the West Coast. Do you think Hawke Osmon will trust you? Now, the whole industry knows that you have set up your original company. , I'm waiting to see you abandoned by the West Coast."

"Do you think I'll worry about work?" Caroline resiliently in front of Hawk, revealing the sharp horns of the female goat: "You are here, and you are talking to Hawk so much, and you are actively exchanging business cards, saying what the future is. Cooperation is nothing more than your arrogant belief that you defeated Hawke on the front battlefield.”

Rooney disdains to say more to her.

Caroline followed her for several years, understood the personality of this woman, knew how to attack her, and said half-truth and half-adulteratedly: "It's not about Judy, Amanda and Rachel, the three original victims, but now Seven people have taken the initiative to join the lawsuit against Waglen and Redford. Do you know why?”

She didn't need Rooney to give the answer: "We just told them the conditions you gave Rachel, and they all decided to stand up."

Rooney paused under her feet, still without saying a word, and slowly walked outside.

Caroline was sent to the door and turned back.

Rooney got into the car, shook her head and smiled. She lost so much.

Even students who teach first can come to mock themselves.

In the coming days of 2003, the whole of the United States was attracted by the scandals exposed in Hollywood. Fox TV and Channel 11's "Ace News" program kept releasing new video evidence, making the relevant news hottest.

The identities of other masked people have also become the focus of public attention.

Both LAPD and FBI have received reports from the parties, and both parties have to work together to handle the case.

When the two sides are mixed together, things will naturally become more and more confused.

As for the truth, no one cares.

The core of this matter is party struggles. The elephants who planned the case took the opportunity to launch an offensive against the donkeys, targeting the state government authorities in Sacramento, the capital of California.

At this stage, Hawke and Brian are no longer able to participate.

Amidst this trouble, Shenlan used a super killer weapon for public opinion and public relations.

Supermodel Gisele Bonchen suddenly held a press conference to accuse Leonardo of cheating repeatedly. He could no longer bear it and decided to break up with Leonardo!

Leonardo DiCaprio's lethality was too strong. From the media to the public to the public, he immediately abandoned the masked man and the victim, and his eyes turned to the breakup between the golden boy and the jade girl.

In order to continuously grab headlines and completely change the direction of public opinion, the Blue Media tracked and reported the breakup incident almost 24 hours a day.

As the famous Deep Blue, Leonardo also interprets the breakup and reunion into a drama with super ratings.

The day after Giselle announced his breakup, the people who were still digging out Leonardo's love history and cheating partner. As a result, on the third day, Leonardo stopped Giselle's outdoor photo scene and took one The super big dove egg won back Giselle's love.

On the first day of 2003, Leonardo and Gisele appeared in front of the media. The former announced that they had successfully proposed to Gisele and that the two would be officially engaged.

In too many countries and regions, the entertainment industry is just a toilet. As long as something smells smelly, throw it into the entertainment industry at will. The smelly smell that can be quickly diverted from the public opinion and the melon-eating people.

News and topics in the entertainment industry can always easily grab headlines.

The unmarried couple snatched all the heat.

On the other hand, the elephants are a bit weak in the media.

But the confrontation in the dark has always been there.

After the 2003 New Year holiday, as Bryan expected, the Los Angeles District Court settled the victim's compensation matters as quickly as possible.

When the people above want to be efficient, the speed can always be incredibly fast.

Brian paid Hawke $1.2 million in public relations fees under the contract.

He will also pay for all the expenses incurred during the period.

There is also the bulletproof Mercedes-Benz, which Brian gave to Hawke.
