Chapter 954: Honey trap
“.That’s probably what happened. I need you to help me bring Congressman Lavoie to the front. I want to know the extent of his involvement in it. It would be best if I could find something that would make him resign.”
Jack roughly explained the initial plan he had just discussed with Zoe and Rossi.
Usually, scandals such as accepting bribes are not enough to make a senator leave immediately and dishonorably.
But if a certain appropriation bill was promoted by him with all his strength, and it happened that the relevant beneficiary defense companies in the appropriation bill, and even the related arms procurement cases themselves were involved in terrorist acts, that would be another matter.
Not to mention that there is also the Anderson family who is eyeing the California seat to help add insult to injury.
There are still three years before the re-election of the Senate. As long as the two seats in California are vacant, there is no need to go through the election. As long as they are designated by the governor, Zoe can naturally become a substitute senator.
Once this position is taken, it will be difficult to be easily shaken by the strength of the Anderson family, and re-election in three years is foreseeable.
And Zoe can naturally step to the front, and provide a solid umbrella for Shangri-La from the political level.
It is not easy to do this, and Jack does not expect to do it overnight, but it is not impossible to try. After all, this opportunity is offered to them, and all they have to do is to follow the trend.
So the suits that Reacher and O'Donnell put on at this time are not for attending any symphony concert, but for pretending to be FBI agents.
Interestingly, Jack, the real FBI agent, cannot appear, because Reacher and the two O'Donnell fake FBI agents will eventually be exposed.
Only when the Congressman Lavoie behind Daniel Boyd finds out Reacher's true identity, he dares to let go and make some arrangements.
Whether it is bribery or silencing, as long as he makes a move, it is equivalent to stepping into the serial traps specially set for him by the Anderson family and the FBI.

A symphony concert usually lasts no more than 2 hours, and there will be a 15-minute break in the middle. Of course, this is what Jack found out on the Internet.
He has never sat in a concert hall to listen to a complete symphony concert, and his understanding of European classical music is limited to works that are completely known to ordinary people, such as "The Blue Danube", "To Alice" and "Symphony of Fate".
But in private, the upper class does not seem to be as obsessed with elegant art as they appear on the surface. The three of them sat in the cafe opposite the concert hall for less than 40 minutes before they received a message from Negley.
"They are coming out, halftime, and it is obvious that some people can't wait." Jack put away his mobile phone and cast his eyes on the sidewalk opposite.
"I see, from this angle, Dixon's dress is so beautiful that it explodes. Your girlfriend's taste in picking clothes is really amazing. Boyd can't resist it at all." O'Donnell said with a sound of his mouth.
Reacher squinted at Jack and silently lip-synced, which was clearly Hannah's name.
Just before everyone left New York, Jack and Jiejie's casual intimacy before parting showed that the relationship between the two was unusual. O'Donnell naturally thought Jiejie was someone's girlfriend.
Although there was nothing wrong with this, Reacher knew Hannah when he was in Margrave Town, and he was also very clear about her relationship with Jack.
"Rosko" Jack also lip-synced to fight back, so there was no need for the two of them to laugh at each other. Although he had two girlfriends in places that Reacher didn't know, at least he was not as ruthless as this guy.
"OK, let's look forward to the acting of Inspector Finlay. If everything goes well, it will be our turn to appear later."
O'Donnell, who was unaware of this little secret battle, stood up and smoothed the wrinkles on his suit, and straightened his tie to make himself look quite decent.
At this time, Dixon had already turned into the back alley of the concert hall with Daniel Boyd, who was given the soul by color, and got into the Porsche Cayenne she drove.
When a certain pervert was impatient, Dixon took out a bag of white powder and said it would help him, but it just happened to be what he wanted.
Just as Daniel Boyd skillfully used a small card to divide a small pile of powder into long strips on Dixon's makeup mirror, and then put his nose on it and sniffed hard, a dark old face appeared outside the car window of the two people like a ghost.

"Those are not my drugs." In the interrogation room of the police station, Daniel Boyd, whose hands were handcuffed on the interrogation table, looked much more sober. When he saw Finlay with a dark face, he tried his best to argue for himself.
"What poison?" Finlay put his hands in his pockets, his eyes flashed a cold light under the light, "The ones in the makeup mirror, or the ones on your nose?"
"Use your brain to think, how could I have a makeup mirror, those are all hers!"
Daniel Boyd's tone rose eight degrees, looking wronged. He didn't know that the black police officer in front of him was also a member of a boring person's honey trap plan, and he took Finlay's perfunctory expression as a deliberate attack on him.
To be honest, if Jack and Reacher didn't have the double favor, Finlay really wouldn't and wouldn't dare to agree to such a thing as framing a congressman's staff.
However, when in the town of Margrave, this black detective had truly witnessed Jack's ability to use the tiger's skin as a banner.
At the beginning, someone was just an ordinary LAPD who had worked for only a year, but he could take advantage of the situation and make the IRS, FBI and Secret Service run around. Now, after a few years, he has become an FBI supervisory agent.
In addition, there is a lawless killer named Reacher. If he cooperates with Daniel Boyd and traps him, he may save his life.
Otherwise, tomorrow, I am afraid that I will have to deal with a murder case that is destined to be unsolved.
Thinking of this, Finlay's face darkened even more, and he said unhappily, "That's not what the lady said, and from what I saw with my own eyes, the drug was not in her hands. She even took the initiative to ask for blood and urine tests. Are you willing to do blood and urine tests?"
Daniel Boyd's expression froze. It was true that he was a useless second-generation ancestor, but that didn't mean he was really an idiot. At this time, he still didn't understand that he had been set up before, which was really stupid.
However, he subconsciously regarded Finlay, who was wearing a tweed suit, as a black cop who wanted to make some extra money. He rolled his eyes and smiled, "Officer, although I don't want to say this, do you know who I am?"
"Of course I know." Finlay interrupted him impatiently, "Mr. Boyd, and I also know that the woman in the car is not Mrs. Boyd.
And I especially despise those who don't respect the sanctity of marriage. I also know that you are working for Congressman Lavoie."
These words immediately changed Daniel Boyd's face. He had already vaguely realized that he seemed to be in some trouble. The other party didn't seem to be after money, at least not a small amount of money.
