Chapter 777 Reached an agreement (please collect, recommend and vote, please vote monthly)
Will Xu Chuan take risks? Of course he will, but that doesn't mean he will be stupid.
You can crush the opponent to death with superior force, why do you have to fight head-on alone?
After rescuing the female reporter, he knew that it would be difficult to resolve the matter today, so he immediately notified several people in Nikita who had arrived at the safe house.
They came here because of Alex's affairs. Nikita rushed over immediately after Xu Chuan contacted her. Of course, she was accompanied by her boyfriend Michael and the unlucky Cody who was forced to renovate the house. Sri Lanka.
The three of them arrived at the beginning of the banquet. They found a sniper position outside and had been lying in the snow for a long time.
With his face covered, Curtis picked up Hannibal's P7. After taking a look and realizing it was a P80, he put it directly into his pocket. Then he took out the 92FS from his holster and stuffed it into the severed hand. inside.
“Hey, don’t go too far.” Xu Chuan had a dark look on his face.
"Don't worry, boss, this is a black gun. We can't find it." He took out the P7 and showed it off, "Anyway, you don't have the hobby of collecting these things. My gun wall has been installed, so I can just put it Put it on."
Damn it, this grandson’s reason was so good that Xu Chuan was unable to refute it.
“You guys retreat first, the FBI should be here soon.” Xu Chuan looked at the time and felt that Jack Crawford should be back soon.
They talked without paying any attention to the other people in the room.
Alana Bloom ran to Hannibal's side and was trying to help him stop the bleeding, "Who are you?"
“Obviously, I am the victim.” Xu Chuan leaned on his chair and put his legs on the dining table.
Of course, Dr. Bloom is not a virgin. She looked at Hannibal and said, "Are you really the Chesapeake Ripper?" There was doubt in her tone, but more of sadness and anger.
Perhaps you are thinking that you will suffer a big loss this time.
After making sure that his boss was safe, Curtis quickly left without Nikita and Michael even showing their faces.
Xu Chuan looked at Hannibal, who sat up and leaned against the wall with Alana's help. At this time, the psychiatrist no longer had the grace he had before, and looked more like a wounded beast.
"Heh, it seems that I was really wrong. I always thought you had never killed anyone, but now it seems that I was really wrong." Hannibal seemed to smile to himself.
"Don't talk nonsense. I have always been a good citizen. You just threatened to eat my girlfriend. I haven't killed you yet, which is enough to prove that I am a good person." Xu Chuan nodded, as if to strengthen this last sentence. Tone.
Just a good person, not someone who has never killed anyone. There is a big difference between these two points.
“I knew you and I were the same person.” Hannibal seemed to have seen something interesting, with a look of excitement on his face.
Xu Chuan rolled his eyes, "We are definitely not the same person. I will never stir-fry the kidneys for more than 30 seconds. If you say you are hot, you are hot."
Margot Fudge was looking at these two lunatics who changed the topic to cooking, and suddenly felt that Mason's illness was not very serious.
Not long after, the FBI team finally arrived. Jack was still worried that the other party had escaped. He really didn’t expect that the scene would be so tragic.
“His hand was also broken?” Jack has not forgotten what happened with the totem killer before. This guy bit the opponent’s leg to death and broke it himself.
Unexpectedly, Xu Chuan actually nodded, "I think it's possible. His hand fell off in the blink of an eye. It does look like he dropped it."
Sheila lowered her head and tried not to laugh.
Jack Crawford almost died while holding a breath in his chest, but now was not the time to talk about this with the annoying guy in front of him.
“Chesapeake Ripper, I finally caught you.” Jack looked down at Hannibal sitting by the wall with a very complicated expression.
There is both the joy of catching the criminal who has been tracking for many years, and the anger of being fooled.
However, Hannibal is so seriously injured now that he needs to receive treatment first.
The ambulance was already waiting outside the door. Hannibal was carried to the car by the medical staff. Before getting in the car, he looked at Xu Chuan who also walked out of the house, and the other party waved to him cordially.
"Fortunately, he didn't say anything like I will definitely come back, or anything like that, it would feel too low."
“He won’t come back, I promise.” Jack Crawford said confidently on the side.
Xu Chuan glanced at him. I didn't ask you what to say, and he really didn't think much of this man's guarantee.
However, we really can’t kill Hannibal today. If it’s just Xu Chuan himself, of course there’s nothing to say. But there are still three women, especially Dr. Bloom, who feel that something will happen.
They can't go back to the hotel now. It's such a big deal, and the FBI can't let them leave like that.
Xuchuan did not collude with others to confess, because it was completely unnecessary.
UC Technology’s legal team has already taken action, and together with the Wayne family’s, it’s enough for Jack Crawford to drink a pot. If you dare to delay yourself from going back for a late-night snack, just wait.
Ms. Card Purnell, an investigator from the FBI Director’s Office, rushed back to the office from the warmth of her home overnight.
"Agent Crawford, I'd like to know what you think now? Isn't it very fulfilling to bring together the Wayne family, the Fauci family, and a team of lawyers from a multinational company at the same time? By the way , and one of the hottest stars at the moment.”
Obviously, this middle-aged woman who was dragged back from home to work overtime was in a bad mood.
"We caught the Chesapeake Ripper, all of them were at the scene." Jack's face turned darker, and now he felt like he had stung a hornet's nest. The joy of catching Hannibal was completely diluted by the current chaotic situation. .
Ms. Purnell interrupted him directly, "I am not interested in your Ripper, but Mr. Director is very interested in why he can become a psychologist in the Behavior Analysis Department."
"I might as well tell you that Wayne Group's newspapers and news departments are already preparing to publicize this matter, and you know what this means." Purnell's job is not to solve the case, her main job is to ensure that someone Some circumstances that are not conducive to the FBI occur.
Under this premise, she has the right to sacrifice those who can be sacrificed.
If this scandal is publicized, Jack Crawford will definitely be the first to be unlucky.
But she didn’t want to do this. If she could get favorable conditions from her colleagues, she still hoped to help Jack, but of course the prerequisite was not to involve herself.
“You have to find a way to solve the problem before things get out of hand.”
Jack touched his forehead, "A sniper appeared on the scene and used military weapons to break Hannibal's hands and legs, and the guy actually said that he dropped it himself. How do you want me to record this kind of testimony? "
"Weapons are not your responsibility. Don't mistake your responsibilities." Ms. Purnell knocked on the table. "How is your injury?"
Previously, Jack found the missing FBI intern Miriam, but was stabbed by the other party. Everyone knew about this, and of course Purnell had to express his concern. Jack touched his shoulder and said, "It's okay, it's just an ordinary stab wound."
Purnell nodded, stood up from behind the desk, "Let's go, I'll go with you to meet this Mr. Grylls."
The problem at the Fauci family is easy to solve. Marge was just one of the people attending the party. She kept saying that she was frightened and couldn't remember the situation. This kind of thing is very common. Anyway, she is a victim and the FBI really can't take her. how's it going.
And the same is true for Sheila, which makes people doubt that the two people have discussed it.
The trouble lies with the boss of UC Technology. If this guy said he didn't know who fired the gun, then there would be nothing going on now. This guy was just deliberately looking for trouble.
However, if he really said that, Jack might not let him go because of his character. This time is different from the previous totem pole incident. It is obvious that the Chesapeake Ripper case will definitely cause a sensation. Jack's It’s not wrong to be cautious.
Of course, there is Dr. Alana Bloom. Her testimony proved that a military personnel indeed entered Hannibal's house and communicated with Bear Grylls. However, due to her too deep relationship with Hannibal, , the confession may not be accepted.
So, the question now is how to get this person to change his words.
In an empty office, Xu Chuan was calmly scrolling through his cell phone. Xue La leaned against him without hesitation, "If you have no other choice, will you really eat me?"
The woman's focus is really strange. "How is it possible? Why should I eat you?" Xu Chuan looked at the other party with eyes that care about special people.
“What if the world ends?”
Xu Chuan had to put down his phone and touched her forehead, "Watch less Hollywood apocalyptic movies, they are all lies."
“But it’s already 2012.”
"Huh?", okay, there are rumors of the end of the world in this world, but Xu Chuan really went to XZ a long time ago and confirmed that there were no those arks before he felt relieved.
“Believe me, there won’t be an apocalypse. If there is, we can eat others together.”
“Are you saying you put me last?”
Xu Chuan looked up to the sky and sighed, why is this woman becoming more and more childish? He reached out and hit her on the head, "I prefer to eat you in other ways." After saying that, he pulled the person over and bit her lips. .
Purnell and Jack saw this scene when they arrived.
Jack touched his nose, this kid is really arrogant.
Purnel knocked on the door helplessly, sighing inwardly, this seemed to be his own territory.
The two of them had no idea of being watched. Xue La took out the makeup mirror and touched up her makeup as if there was no one around. Young Master Xu had long since learned to be shameless with the people around him.
“I am Card Purnell, an investigator from the FBI Director’s Office. I am here to verify some matters with Mr. Grylls.” Purnell was very polite, completely different from Jack.
“You were kidnapped by Dr. Lecter after attending a dinner party at his house. You were rescued by the FBI and escaped from danger. During the process, Dr. Lecter was shot by an HRT sniper…”
Tsk, the difference in this level is that the words are nice, and the idea is also very wild. This not only makes myself speechless, but also gives the FBI a piece of credit out of thin air.
Xu Chuan looked at Jack Crawford on the side with contempt, his expression was that you look at others and then look at yourself.
"What should I do, Dr. Bloom?" I don't know if this woman will accept this argument. It will be quite troublesome if something happens to her.
Purnell relaxed. The person in front of him was very smart. It was easy to talk to smart people. "Don't worry about Dr. Bloom. With her relationship with Hannibal, all her confessions will not be accepted."
Xu Chuan nodded, "I will talk to the lawyer. If he thinks there is no problem, then so be it."
Purnell nodded, "This is what it should be."
It didn't take long for the two sides to reach an agreement. The FBI would no longer hold on to the military personnel, but Xu Chuan suppressed public opinion that was unfavorable to the FBI.
“I can guarantee that the Wayne Group and Twitter reports will be downplayed, but if it comes out through other channels, don’t come to me.”
Watching Xu Chuan's car leaving the FBI through the floor-to-ceiling window, Jack was really a little reluctant, but he had to accept the result, otherwise early retirement would definitely be waiting for him.
Purnell's work is not finished yet. She has only managed one media outlet, and she needs to contact the rest. She even temporarily set up an emergency response team to deal with the pressure that may be brought about by public opinion.
Jack can't rest either. The investigation about Hannibal has just begun. He has obtained a search warrant and can finally visit this beast's lair.
…
Xu Chuan, who returned to the hotel, was not affected by this trivial matter at all. He just regretted it a little. If he wasn't afraid that the FBI would come too quickly, he should have searched Hannibal's home first. This guy knows the evil of human nature and is still a human being. The psychiatrist probably collected something interesting.
But it was too late to say this. Jack Crawford would never wait another night. He was probably rummaging around in that house now.
“Where’s Allen?” Xu Chuan saw one of the other party’s bodyguards.
And the guy just shrugged, "Mr. Wayne accompanied the reporter back to Hannibal's home." Even if Margo was right next to him, the kid had no intention of hiding it for his employer.
Xu Chuan smiled and left the banquet early. This is definitely the thing that the female reporter regrets most in her life. She didn't get first-hand information.
So after learning that Hannibal had been arrested, she kicked Allen out of bed and rushed to the scene.
Margot Fudge didn't take this matter to heart at all. She needed to sort out her thoughts now. As her psychiatrist, Hannibal Lecter knew too much about her privacy, and this guy turned out to be a Chesapeake Ripper, some of the things he told himself before were very intriguing.
Hannibal has been encouraging Mag to kill Mason, and has succeeded.
What Mago is doing now is preparing to kill her brother.
No one can say whether this guy will tell the FBI what he is going to do.
She had to find a way to see Hannibal, otherwise she would really not be able to let go.
As soon as Xu Chuan walked to the elevator, a playful voice came over, "Boss, why did you come back?"
Curtis appears here wearing a dark leather jacket.
“Nikita thinks you need a professional security guard. If something like today happens again, there will be no need for her to lie in the snow and act as a sniper.”
This reason is very powerful.
