If an intern wanted to become an official agent, apart from the appreciation and recommendation of the team leader, the most important thing was the signature of the team supervisor. Without the signature of the supervisor, even if he joined an investigation team, he could only get the salary of an intern agent.
This was a matter of principle.
From Augustus’s point of view, Roan’s performance today was commendable.
From 12.00 PM to 7.00 PM, Luo An and Mona used only seven hours to successfully catch the murderer. Although this efficiency did not break the New York Branch’s record for solving cases, it successfully broke the record for the New York Branch’s interns.
Therefore, in Augustus’ view, today’s interrogation was not a problem at all. As long as Roan’s statement was reasonable and there were no mistakes in principle, he could help Roan solve other problems. In the end, Roan would be able to successfully join Investigation Team No. 5.
However, he did not expect Bronson to jump out.
On the surface, it seemed like Bronson was targeting Roan, but in reality, he was targeting Augustus.
Augustus’s expression turned even darker. He stared at Brosen and said in a calm tone, “Roan is an intern agent. He has already done what an intern agent should do. Does Team Leader Brosen think that an intern agent should do better than you?”
Upon hearing this, Bronson’s tone did not change. He still smiled and said, “No, I’m just speaking up for you. Why are you so angry?”
Knock, knock!
The team leader, Veronica, picked up her pen and knocked on the table. She ignored the two team leaders’ confrontation and looked up at Roan. She asked again expressionlessly, “So you don’t know why Conrad committed the crime, right?”
Augustus hurriedly gave Roan a look, asking him to nod his head. It was still the same sentence. Roan had done what an intern agent should do, and he had not made any mistakes in principle. Becoming a full-time agent was a certainty, so there was no need to say anything more.
The more one said, the more mistakes one would make. The less one said, the less mistakes one would make. It applied everywhere.
“No, I know why the murderer committed the crime.”
Roan gave Augustus a reassuring look and reached out to Mona. Mona immediately handed him a yellow notebook.
“Everyone, please take a look. This is the notebook of the reporter, Mike that I got from the murderer, Conrad. It records the important reason why Conrad killed Mike and West.”
The smile on Bronson’s face slowly disappeared.
Half a year ago, the wife of New York University professor, West Watts, passed away painfully one night after suffering from cancer for more than three years.
West was sorting out his wife’s belongings with a heavy heart. During this process, he suddenly found half a bottle of white medicine without a label, name, or brand.
West remembered that this bottle of medicine was the anti-cancer medicine that his wife had taken every day in the ward for nearly a year. According to the regulations, the name and label of the drug had to be written on the tablet. In his confusion, West called the hospital and asked which company produced the bottle of drug and what its effect was.
However, the doctor on the other end of the phone did not know anything. In the end, he said that he had never prescribed the medicine that West mentioned before hanging up.
West was completely furious. His wife had been taking this white medicine for an entire year, and now the doctor was telling him that he had never prescribed this medicine? Then where did this medicine come from? Was his wife’s painful death related to this drug?
With a series of angry questions, West began to investigate the source of the white drug.
After much effort, West finally learned that the drug came from the Moroway Pharmaceutical Company, one of the anti-cancer drugs developed by the company. At present, this drug was still in clinical testing and experimental stages. The side effects were very high and there was a high chance that it would cause death.
Using mice alone could not speed up the progress of the test. In order to speed up the development of the drug and get the company listed quickly, the person in charge of the company decisively chose to bribe the top management of several hospitals to feed these drugs to the cancer patients in the hospital. By observing the reactions of these patients after taking the medicine, they could speed up the development of the drug.
It was a biological experiment!
Professor West’s wife was one of the experimental subjects.
Professor West, who learned the truth, fainted for a day and a night. If it were not for the students visiting his house, he might have died a few days later.
After waking up in the hospital, West’s first thought was to expose the company’s ugly behavior and show them to the world!
After asking around, West found the war reporter Mike, hoping that he could expose the whole thing.
Mike agreed to West’s request, but there was no evidence. The two of them needed more strong evidence, so they began to collect evidence in their own ways.
In the process of collecting evidence, Mike’s actions were a little too obvious, and he was discovered by a senior executive of the Moroway Pharmaceutical Company.
In order to prevent this matter from being exposed and for the company to successfully go public, the higher-ups immediately contacted the veteran, Conrad, and set a 500,000 dollar bounty on Mike and West…
“Very good!”
After hearing the truth behind the matter, the corners of Veronica’s lips curled up slightly. She stood up from her seat after a simple evaluation of Roan and said to Augustus, “I’ll leave first. I’ll leave the rest to you.”
With that, Veronica turned around and left.
“Goodbye, Ma’am.”
Augustus laughed out loud. He grabbed the pen on the table and threw it to the side. He threw it right at Bronson’s head.
Before Bronson could get angry, Augustus hurriedly said, “I’m sorry. I got up too quickly and my hands are shaking!”
“…”
After glaring at Augustus, Bronson turned around and left with a dark expression.
When Brosen’s figure completely left the intern agent’s office, Augustus walked to the front of the office with a big smile. He sized up Roan and praised, “Not bad, kid. You look a little similar to me when I was young! Even your looks are similar to mine!”
Mona was speechless.
Everyone was speechless.
Looking at Augustus’ big belly, thick lips, and face, Roan did not know if Augustus was praising or scolding him.
However, this was not important.
” Sir, I damaged a car during my mission…”
As soon as Roan opened his mouth, Augustus waved his hand.
“It’s okay. Deduct it from the funds of our Investigation Team No. 5!”
“Thank you, Sir!”
“Huh???”
The eyes of Jody and his teammates instantly turned red.
“Oh, right.”
Speaking of cars, Augustus suddenly thought of something and said to the baldy, “The case has been solved. You must immediately capture the higher-ups involved in the case in Moroway Pharmaceutical Company. You must not let them know the news and run away from America.”
“Yes, Sir.”
The baldy nodded in agreement. He then pointed at Jody and said, “Jody, your team will go and arrest them immediately. Don’t let the higher-ups of that company escape!”
Jody’s team was speechless.
All the credit goes to Roan and Mona, while the rest of the chores were theirs?!
