After one night, Chicagoans suddenly discovered that the entire city was much quieter, and there were far fewer gun battles on the news. In fact, this was the result of the Chicago Police Department's strict crackdown during this period. Those gangs that were more aggressive were either killed by Kai.
If you lead them and kill them all, they will either be thrown into jail and unable to jump at all. And those smarter gangs also understand that if they continue to fight like this, they will either cause public outrage and let the people take to the streets to protest, and then the Chicago government and the Illinois
If the state government directly seeks intervention from the National Guard, they will be even worse off. With the support of the people, their rogue lawyers will be of no use.
After all, the United States has a jury system. If public opinion prevails, the juries selected from the public will naturally favor the prosecutor. By then, it will be useless no matter how much money they spend. Besides, are they gangsters?
For love and peace? Of course it’s to make money. If you keep fighting, let alone making money, your own life safety cannot be guaranteed. So many gangs have clearly understood that enough is enough.
It just so happened that during this period, the Chicago Police Department cracked down on gangs with unprecedented intensity. They just took this opportunity to make a truce, and they themselves couldn't hold on anymore. Don't gangs need to spend money to fight? I really think those gangsters are all righteous.
?In this world, money is always what buys people's lives! If you don't have money, you just want people to work hard. It's not that simple. It's the same even at the national level. If you are a soldier, you don't need to eat or be paid?
It's a beautiful idea, believe it or not, even if the United States, a superpower, announces tomorrow that there will be no salary for soldiers, believe it or not, the world's strongest army will be disbanded the next day. Without money, let alone national justice, ordinary people are not special
It's all nonsense to care about that. Making money to support your wife and children is the only serious thing.
So, these gangsters not only have to spend money, but they also have to spend a lot of money. Those gangsters have a gross sense of honor and have no money. You can talk to Cai Guoqing.
Now we just take advantage of this opportunity to call a truce. Wouldn’t it be good to make money?
So during this period, the top brass of the Chicago Police Department felt very proud. After all, the whole city was now praising the Chicago police. This situation was extremely rare in the history of Chicago for more than a hundred years. In fact, those top brass all knew that the reason why the media
Being so talkative is also to build momentum for the expo. Although the media mainly focus on attracting attention, they are also part of the city. Chicago's economic improvement is also beneficial to them. They will not look for trouble at this time.
Everyone is carrying people on sedan chairs.
However, just when everyone was feeling proud, there was another incident that made the top brass of the police department very unhappy.
That's Tapia.
The top management has not forgotten the embarrassment this has brought to the Chicago Police Department. The previous claims and accusations have already caused the Chicago Police Department to lose face, not to mention the drug theft case from the police department. The people in the police department are not that forgetful.
, how could it be possible to let this matter go so easily.
And this time, they also grabbed the DEA's handle and pulled the DEA to provide them with support. If this can't kill Tapia, then they might as well resign. It's a shame.
But the truth is that, Tapia didn't know what kind of medicine he took, but he was as quiet as a quail these days, without making any noise. Of course, the drugs were still shipped to Chicago by the ton, which made the Chicago Police Department feel very
Very unhappy!
"What do you two do for a living?" Teresa was scolded by her superiors again today. As for the police, they cannot be gentle. A case has been assigned to you. If you can't handle it, it's common for you to be criticized, but your superiors don't.
They will care about what difficulties you have. No one has difficulty doing something. If you can't do it if you have difficulties, then everyone just won't do it.
Teresa was scolded, so she couldn't just let it go. She naturally found the "bad boy" team who handled the case.
Neither Marcus nor Mike could remember how many times they were dragged into the office by Theresa to spray. In order to protect Sydney, they took the case from Theresa, but after all this time, they still
Nothing was found.
"Boss... you can't blame us, we have too few manpower. Originally, Matthew and Kai could help us, but in the end..."
As the leader of a police department, the first thing is to learn not to listen to the complaints of your subordinates. No matter which country you are in, there are never enough police manpower. Many police officers are used as one person for two people. In Chicago, the situation is even worse.
Let’s compare Shanghai, China and Chicago. The total population of Shanghai is 24 million, the number of police officers is 30,000, and the number of auxiliary police is 16,000. However, the auxiliary police have no law enforcement power, so on average, every 800 people can be allocated
A law enforcement police resource. The total number of police officers in the Chicago Police Department is about 12,000, and Chicago has a population of 2.7 million. On average, there are almost 4.4 police officers per 1,000 residents.
However, whether it is subjective or objective data, Shanghai's security is much better than that of Chicago. Currently, the number of people shot in Chicago has exceeded 3,000, and the number of gun deaths is expected to exceed 600, setting a new record since the 1980s and 1990s.
Historical records since the war.
Although it seems that Chicago has an abundant police force, the actual accounting is not so. First of all, from an American system perspective, the American police themselves serve the wealthy. After all, when the United States was founded, there was no police profession at all. Until
The great development of industrialization in the 19th century brought tense labor conflicts and racial issues, and the police profession was born in the United States. They were born to protect interest groups from the beginning.
Then there is the issue of money. As I said before, because it is a federal system, the police at all levels in the United States work independently. For example, the state police cannot control the county sheriff, and the FBI cannot order the state police. In this way, the funding of the police at all levels will naturally be limited.
It is not paid by the state, but by local finance and individual donations. In this way, wealthy places and places with high tax revenue will naturally have more police forces, while poor places will naturally have less police force.
As mentioned before, every thousand people in Chicago can enjoy 4.4 police officers, but this does not mean that these police officers are evenly distributed to every corner of the city. If you look at the distribution of Chicago police officers, you can find problems. In the center of Chicago
and most areas in the northwest, where the economic situation is good, tax revenue is abundant, and the police force is naturally very abundant. These places account for almost 70 to 75% of the total police force in Chicago. And the vast civilian areas such as the South District
District and local fiscal revenue are small, so they can only occupy less than 30% of the remaining police force.
It is very realistic. You get what you pay for. Capitalism has always been well-known on this point.
Unfortunately, it is those places that lack police personnel that need them most. So looking at it this way, you will feel that Chicago still has too few police personnel.
The General Detective Bureau is affiliated with the Chicago Police Headquarters. It is somewhat similar to the major crime, anti-gang, homicide, and anti-narcotics departments. They are different from the following branches. They only need to be responsible for matters in their own jurisdiction. They have to be responsible for the entire
city, and most of the time, the manpower of the Chief Detective Bureau basically supports those areas where the police force is lacking. After all, those are the areas with high crime rates. Therefore, there are many branches in Chicago with abundant police force, but they definitely do not include the Chief Police Officer.
Detective Bureau.
"Kay and the others have their own things to do!" It's okay that Teresa didn't listen to this. When she heard this, she immediately got angry. Look at others, and then look at these two guys. Although they are good at doing things, they are more capable of causing trouble.
, these two people are almost causing trouble. Teresa has received a lot of complaints, all from these two idiots. The most egregious thing is that some parents actually called the police, saying that they were having sex on TV!
Teach bad children!
Teresa was really shocked when she first received this complaint. Even though Americans are clamoring for equal rights everywhere, in fact, in many places and professions, they exclude LGBT people, such as police and soldiers. There are no police officers.
And soldiers would like their partner to be gay.
If this was the case, she would have to find a way to transfer these two people away and finally send them to a place where they could not be seen. The crime was ready-made.
Only after looking at the results did we realize that these two guys were acting like monsters again. Didn’t Mike shoot Marcus in the butt before to save Marcus? Because of this incident, Marcus almost had a psychological shadow.
, the two later talked about it, but the location was inappropriate. They talked about it in a store where they bought TVs and audio-visual equipment, and it was broadcast live.
Think about it, what other people would think about two grown men talking affectionately about their butts...
Look at Kai and Matthew again. Let’s not talk about how others do things beautifully. The key is that these two people always only make Teresa look good. If nothing else, they saved Tony Stark’s secretary last time.
This incident led Tony Stark to donate millions of dollars to the Chicago Police Department. Then for the expo, the Stark Group donated a large sum of money to the Chicago Police Department. In addition, during this period,
"Strike Hard" was also carried out by Kai's team.
Not only did Director Cooper receive praise, Teresa also received a lot of praise, creating a strong impression among the top management.
These are the men who really do things!
"Does Kai have to do everything? In that case, why not give him your salary?"
With the comparison, Teresa couldn't control her anger at all, and she had no intention of controlling it. These two guys had brought her so much work, so what happened to her complaining about them? What happened?
Marcus and Mike felt aggrieved.
But it's hard to say anything. After all, they did bring this case with guns blazing... They have to understand the trouble they have caused on their knees.
Theresa was in a particularly bad mood today, so she sprayed for about ten minutes before she calmed down due to dry mouth and tongue.
"I don't care what you do, I want to get the result anyway! Three days! Three days! If you can't handle it, then change people, and you two will go fishing in Lake Michigan and be the coastal police for me!"
The coast police are the police on the beach. They are called police, but in fact they are similar to beach security. At most, they are equipped with a stun baton.
Duh duh duh!
A knock on the door saved the two guys.
"Teresa, I..." It was Kai who came in. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Marcus and Mike looking downcast. Without asking, he knew that these two people were being criticized again. "Or... I
Come back later?"
"No, I have something to tell you soon." Teresa did not let Marcus and the others go out, but called Kai and handed him an invitation. "There is a cocktail party at Willis Tower today.
Director Cooper will be attending, and you just happened to be invited."
Willis Tower, formerly known as Sears Tower, was built in 1974. Chicago's Sears Tower held the title of the world's tallest building from 1974 to 1998. Although it was later overtaken, it has always been a landmark building in Chicago.
The Sears Tower has 110 floors. It was once the tallest commercial building in the world. There is an observation deck on the 103rd floor for tourists to overlook the city. It is 412 meters above the ground. On a clear day, you can see 4 states in the United States.
.For this reason, it is loved by many people. If you have a cocktail party here, if nothing else, the environment and view are absolutely first-class.
Kai held the invitation letter confused.
"Cocktail party? Invite me?" The biggest official Kai knew in Chicago was Deputy Director Cooper. Just looking at the invitation letter, you knew that this kind of cocktail party was very high-end. There was no reason to invite a nobody like him.
"Tony Stark will also be attending," Teresa said.
I understand, it’s this idle guy’s fault again.
"Then can I not go? I don't like that guy." Kai said.
"What do you think?" Tony Stark is now Chicago's biggest villain, ah no, the biggest philanthropist. How could the Chicago Police Department offend such a person? What if he is happy and donates millions more?
After all, millions are nothing to him.
Kai curled his lips in displeasure.
"I will go with you in the evening. Remember to be on time!" Teresa said again.
"You?" Kai didn't expect Theresa to be invited too.
"Don't you need a female companion?" Teresa said so naturally. Our Teresa has always been an ambitious woman. When she reaches this point, if she wants to move up, she needs connections.
.A high-end cocktail party like this is the best place to expand your network. How could she let it go, and the reasons she gave were perfect. This kind of cocktail party would look very informal if there were no female companions, and there would only be minions and top-notch people waiting on you.
Only a boss would participate alone. Kai is obviously not a top boss. I believe he doesn't want to do it either, so Teresa will sacrifice her.
Kai looked at Teresa blankly, a little surprised that this woman could be such a thief. Does he have a girlfriend?
Teresa straightened out her one-pound chest and asked proudly: "What? Can't it?"
Dcup is all about confidence!
To be honest, apart from the fact that her skin color does not suit Kai's aesthetics, Teresa's appearance is considered beautiful even in the eyes of an Oriental. She is just a little bit older, after all, she is entering her fourth year.
"Okay, whatever you like."
Kelly at her age has never been very interested in such formal drinking parties. In her words, the people who attend such drinking parties are so pretentious and so hypocritical that it is disgusting. It is better to go to a nightclub. Although it is crazy, everything released there is
It's true.
Teresa smiled, she liked how Kai was so knowledgeable.
Kai waved the invitation in his hand as a greeting to the unlucky duo, and then left directly.
The two of them looked at Kai with envy, especially Marcus. When others were policemen, he also became a policeman, but look at what kind of life others lived? Driving a luxury car, living in a manor, and having such a beautiful girlfriend,
When he was at work, his boss would go to a high-end cocktail party with him...
Looking at himself again, he only has a pitiful salary and a nice wife, but she is too fierce. He doesn’t even have time to have a barbecue party on his lawn...
It's really impossible to compare. The more we compare, the more uncomfortable we become.
