Sitting in the car, Peter Brown saw a car driving into the entrance of the community, and in the car sat Harry Martin and a few police officer-looking figures.
A single phone call completely dispelled Leo’s sleepiness. After listening to Peter Brown’s narration, Leo was truly taken aback.
In fact, after coming to this province, Leo had been unable to carry out his work smoothly. His many ideas could not be implemented, and every time he attempted to do something, some invisible hands would reach out. Take the Carter father and son, for example. Leo knew very well that they had done too many bad things, and he wanted to crack down on them. As soon as he proposed the idea, however, many people immediately opposed it, and even No. 1 had a vague attitude.
Although Leo was No. 3 in the province, he often felt powerless in many matters. Today, to carry out a job, he even went head-to-head with a leader.
Now, suddenly receiving a call from Peter Brown and hearing that there was too much evidence involving provincial officials, Leo knew this might be his chance.
Leo had always considered Peter Brown to be an extraordinary man and had great trust in him. He knew that when Peter made such a call late at night, it meant that the situation was very serious.
Thinking of this, Leo became more cautious. He didn’t alert anyone in the province but instead brought his trusted men straight to the scene.
Leo had to be careful now. After all, his foundation in this province was still unstable. If, as Peter said, there was indeed too much evidence, this would play a significant role in his control over the entire provincial government.
The people he brought with him were very professional. They quickly opened the door, and everyone carefully entered the room.
In the end, the shocking discovery made Leo open his mouth wide. He too had not expected there to be so much evidence. The Carter father and son had gathered blackmail material on many leaders, and Dexter’s records of bribery were equally clear. There were also many things that even Leo found shocking.
Of course, the deaths caused by the Carter father and son were also recorded which formed comprehensive evidence of their network of relationships. It was believed that once the news broke out, the repercussions would be earth-shattering.
Leo didn’t care about the wealth inside. For him, having all this evidence was enough.
"Take everything back!"
Leo, filled with surprise, ordered his trusted men to start packing.
Luckily, Peter Brown had warned them that there were too many items, so they brought many large bags. Otherwise, there would have been no way to fit everything.
Even so, the car they arrived in was packed full.
Not until Leo and the others’ car was out of sight did Peter start his car and head back to the hotel parking lot.
Peter was somewhat surprised that no one had come even now. Had Dexter received a warning?
Although he couldn’t figure out the situation, Peter was satisfied with his actions as the whole matter had unfolded smoothly.
After moving everything into his car, Peter called Briar Henderson.
To Peter’s surprise, neither of them had gone home. They both rented a room in the hotel and waited for news.
As soon as the phone call connected, Edward Martin and Briar Henderson quickly arrived at the parking lot.
"So, Peter, what’s going on with this whole thing?" Edward Martin asked first.
Peter smiled and said, "It’s all taken care of. Now it’s up to your dad."
"How is it up to my dad?" Edward Martin looked at Peter with confusion.
Peter recounted the general situation to them.
Of course, Peter didn’t go into great detail about his own prowess. He merely told the two how he had discovered the community, entered it, and made his discoveries. He also mentioned that he had brought Leo into the situation.
Both men were dumbfounded. Edward Martin exclaimed, "You actually alerted my dad!"
Briar Henderson was also puzzled, "You could have called us. We could have handled it."
Peter shook his head, "I took a brief look, and the people involved have high profiles. You guys can’t handle this. It’s better for Edward’s dad to take care of it. Besides, he knows how to handle this kind of situation."
At this point, Edward finally understood. Thinking of all his father’s efforts, he knew that Peter was helping his dad.
"Peter, thanks a lot."
"Why thank me? I’m just doing what I should do." Peter said as he handed the car keys to Briar Henderson, "I have to go."
After finishing his words, Peter started the car and drove away.
Watching Peter’s car leave, Briar Henderson asked, "Was there no one guarding Dexter’s floor tonight?"
Edward Martin glanced at Briar Henderson, "You think Dexter is so careless? If he were really that careless, he would have been taken out long ago. Just because he has dirt on someone doesn’t mean they won’t move against him. Those with a grudge against him probably hate him the most. They just can’t do anything overtly."
"So by your logic, everyone up there was defeated by Peter?"
"Briar, Peter is too mysterious. We can’t consider him an ordinary person. He managed to get things done so quickly this time. I think his abilities are far beyond what we thought!"
At this point, Edward turned to Briar and said, "Briar, let’s keep this matter to ourselves. Pretend we don’t know."
"Mr. Roger, I understand. Don’t worry, I won’t leak it."
Peter didn’t care about their thoughts. After driving away for a while, he stopped, unable to help but take out his loot and count it.
At that moment, it was hastily packed into bags. Now, looking through it, there was as much as $200,000, 7 million RMB, and a large amount of jewelry, gold bars, and other items. Peter could not immediately figure out how much these were worth. In addition, there were some antiques that he had impulsively packed, and Peter had no idea how much they cost, but he knew that the antiques carefully collected by Dexter must be extraordinary.
Taking out the Pill Furnace, Peter felt that his biggest gain today might be this Pill Furnace.
Looking at all these items, Peter sighed. Although he had inherited the method of refining space rings, unfortunately, he hadn’t found a Space Stone yet. If he had a Space Stone, refining a Space Ring would be enough to store everything he needed.
