Chapter 367: Musk Appears

At this moment, whether it was the celebrities present at the scene or David and others who were observing secretly, they all heard a burst of uproar coming from behind them.

Looking back, I saw a group of people walking in.

When they saw the face of the leader clearly, David and the others were all stunned, and then they understood why there was an uproar at the scene.

Because this person is none other than the current leading figure in the American business community, Elon Musk!

The woman on his left was also familiar to David and the others.

It is the former president’s daughter, the world’s top supermodel Ivanka!
Today, Ivanka wore a red deep V dress. With her 1.2-meter long legs and upper-class temperament, she almost overwhelmed all the women present.

"This woman is really a beauty. It's a pity that she got married so early!"

Here, looking at the attractive Ivanka, Jerry also showed a regretful expression.

"So what if you're married? You don't understand the happiness of a young woman!"

David took over the conversation, his eyes still looking at the top supermodel Ivanka not far away.

Although Ivanka is not young anymore, her appearance and temperament are both top-notch. She can be said to be a ripe peach and is still very attractive to men.

"Inspector General, I didn't expect you to..."

Jerry looked at David in surprise. What he originally wanted to say was, I didn't expect you to be a fellow traveler, but he realized that this seemed a bit disrespectful, so he quickly swallowed the second half of the sentence.

"Okay, don't pay attention to these irrelevant things. We are not here to play today."

David also realized that he had gone a little off topic and quickly put aside some messy thoughts.

As for his gaze, it had shifted from Ivanka to a man on Masko's right, and he subconsciously examined him twice.

【Name: Harrington Wood.】

[Occupation: businessman (Federal Security Bureau agent of the Bear Country). ]

[Monthly income: 2000 million US dollars. 】

[Detailed income: Income from company profits, sale of intelligence information...]

【…】

As this information emerged, David's expression became slightly surprised.

This man named Harrington is the host of tonight's charity dinner.

But his real identity is actually a former KGB agent and current Federal Security Bureau agent of the Russian Bear Country!

What surprised him even more was that after careful investigation, he found that this person actually had many interests involved with the director of the CIA's Intelligence Department.

It seems that the director's visit today may not just be to attend the dinner, but he may be here to make some intelligence transactions!
"Okay everyone, let's get back to the point. The next item to be auctioned is a sword from the Roman Empire period. The starting price is 150 million US dollars, and each increase in price must not be less than 10 US dollars!"

After the host finished speaking, the sounds of bidding began to emanate from the audience.

About two minutes later, the price of the sword had been called up to 600 million US dollars.

At this moment, Musk suddenly raised his hand and shouted domineeringly: "1000 million US dollars!"

After that, perhaps because the price was too high or because of Musk's status, the scene fell silent.

"1000 million once, 1000 million twice, 2 three times...deal! Thank you Mr. Masko for your support to the people in the disaster area!"

Not surprisingly, Musk successfully bought the sword.

In the following period of time, the auction continued.

Musk, a wealthy tycoon, only made three attempts in total. After acquiring a few pieces of collection, he sat back and watched.

Finally, after more than half an hour.

Harrington, who arrived with Musk, stood up and said to Musk and Ivanka with a slight apology: "Excuse me, both of you..."

"Please!"

Harrington nodded and headed towards the bathroom.

On this side, David stood up after a moment of contemplation and walked towards the passage as well.

After walking more than fifty meters, a restroom appeared in front of them. At this time, two burly men were standing at the door of the restroom, standing on guard.

A big man on the right immediately stretched out his hand to stop David and others after seeing them coming, saying, "Sorry, sir, please come in later!"

"Tell Mr. Harrington I want to talk to him!"

"You are……?"

When they heard that David came specifically to see Harrington, the two bodyguards immediately became alert and kept looking at them.

"Don't ask, you don't want to know."

"what do you mean?"

The two bodyguards instantly became alert and their hands slowly reached towards their waists.

The three men, Manson and others, who were following behind David were not blind either, and of course they saw the other party's actions.

To be on the safe side, their hands also moved slowly.

When the situation was on the verge of breaking out, suddenly, a voice reached everyone's ears.

"What are you doing?"

Harrington walked out, holding up his belt, looking at all this in confusion.

"Mr. Harrington, this group of people said they want to talk to you!"

"Oh?"

Harrington turned and looked at David carefully.

Suddenly, he seemed to feel that he had seen this person before somewhere, but he couldn't remember where for a moment.

"Mr. Harrington, this is not the place to talk. How about we go somewhere else to chat?"

"What, you are..."

"Shh!"

Before the other party could finish speaking, David hurriedly put his fingers between his lips.

Although Harrington stopped talking, the horror on his face still remained.

As a spy, he has insight and memory far beyond that of ordinary people.

And during this period of time, David has repeatedly made a big splash in front of people all over the world, so how could he not remember his voice?

Combined with his keen insight, he knew that the man's face was disguised.

So who else could it be if not the famous Inspector General David of the IRS? He just couldn't figure out why Inspector General David came to him.
Could it be that his identity as a spy has been discovered?
But that’s not right either.

It is said that Inspector General David is currently engaged in a three-way fight with the Freemasons, Ansa Group and the Illuminati. How could he have the time to cause trouble for a spy like him?

Just when his mind was full of confusion.

David spoke again: "Mr. Harrington, did you hear what I said? I don't want to repeat myself a second time, understand?"

"What do you want to talk about?"

"You'll know."

"But my charity auction is still going on..."

"So you mean to reject me?"

"Well...well, follow me!"

To be honest, Harrington didn't want to have anything to do with David at all because he knew Ken was up to no good.

But when he thought about the fact that David had sent so many powerful people to prison and had caused chaos in such a huge group as the Freemasons, as well as his current status and position, he could only endure it for the time being.

The two parties walked one after the other and soon arrived at a private room.

After sitting down, Harrington asked directly, "Tell me, Inspector General David, what is the reason for you to come to see me?"

"I know you have had a lot of dealings with Sawyer, the director of the CIA Intelligence Division. I need all the information about your dealings with him. Just give it to me and I'll be gone. It's that simple!"

After hearing these remarks, although Harrington pretended to be extremely calm, his heart was already in turmoil.

Now he finally understood why David came to see him!

But then again, he and Sawyer have a lot of business dealings, and few people in both countries know about it. This is a secret among secrets. How did Inspector General David find out about it?
and many more……

Harrington seemed to have thought of something terrible, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

What he thought was that David was able to find out about his dealings with Sawyer, so didn't that mean he also knew his identity as a spy?

If his identity is exposed, it will be troublesome.

The reason why he can have the status he has today is entirely due to the huge resources spent by the Bear Country behind him. If his identity is exposed, his country will suffer great losses!

Thinking of all this, Harrington couldn't calm down, but on the surface, he still pretended to be innocent and replied: "Inspector General David, I don't know what you are talking about. I am just a businessman. How can I know Director Sawyer of the CIA?"

"Really, Mr. Harrington? Then let me ask you, on the 8th, 18th, and 25th of last month, you withdrew 800 million U.S. dollars from your company respectively. Where did these three sums of money go?"

David smiled and stared at Harrington.

"Inspector General David, it's only 800 million. With my wealth, do you think there's anything wrong with spending this little money?"

Harrington was not a fool. He was afraid that David had only found some clues and was trying to trick him into believing it. So, without any real evidence, he would deny it anyway.

"That's fine, but unfortunately you didn't spend it. Instead, you used it to bribe Director Sawyer and his immediate superior, the Deputy Director in charge, and asked him to help you get in touch with the head of intelligence at MI6."

"You then got three pieces of intelligence."

"First, the United States will unite with European countries and ask them to provide Ukraine with Leopard 2 tanks and Patriot missile defense systems..."

"Second, the United States has no intention of working with the Middle Eastern countries to lower international oil prices. The oil market will remain stable for some time in the future."

"Third... am I right, Mr. Harrington?"

"We are all smart people. Now that I have found you today, just give me what I want and don't waste my time and words anymore. Do you understand?"

After David said this, Harrington could no longer pretend nothing had happened.

At this moment, his expression became completely gloomy.

Inspector General David not only investigated clearly who he bribed, but even the intelligence he obtained through the bribery was so clear. It seemed that he had sufficient evidence. How could he make excuses?

If he really wants to continue to quibble.

They could just turn around and report back to the CIA or someone else or the National Security Agency.

As long as these two departments really want to investigate him, no matter how well he covers it up, he will eventually be found out.

But if he really obeyed Inspector General David, wouldn't the unfortunate Sawyer drag him down with him?

For a moment, Harrington was in a state of confusion.

"Don't worry, as long as you give me what I want, your identity as a spy or not is the business of the CIA, NSA, FBI and other departments, and has nothing to do with our IRS. In addition, I promise that Sawyer will never drag you down, and you can still continue to be your rich man!"

David also saw his concerns and continued to speak.

After hearing this, Harrington was already convinced.

In fact, it cannot be said that he was persuaded, it can only be said that he has no choice now.

Although David's tactics were a bit ruthless, he was still guaranteed by the IRS. Moreover, David had never been known to go back on his word. Since the other party had already made this promise, it should be valid.

At worst, he would just stop staying in the United States and run back to his country. It would be better than having his identity exposed and being subject to compulsory measures.

Thinking of this, Harrington could only compromise and said, "Okay, Inspector General David, I believe in your promise. Regarding Director Sawyer's matter, I will give you a file, but you need to wait a moment."

"This is not a problem!"

Seeing that he had dealt with this guy, David was in a very happy mood and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

But the next second, he remembered something and said, "By the way, Mr. Harrington, I have something else I want to ask you for a favor!"

"what's up?"

"Just now I saw that you and Musk seem to be very familiar with each other. I want you to invite him over. I need to talk to him!"

"What, you..."

Harrington was stunned again.

It's not enough for Inspector General David to deal with him, is he going to take action against Musk as well?
"Inspector General David, I invited Mr. Musk here today. This... I'm afraid it's not a good idea!"

After thinking about it, Harrington still wanted to block the knife for Musk.

Musk is no ordinary person now. He has great influence in both the political and business circles, and is even known as the modern "Iron Man".

If he really brought her here and she was bullied by David, she would definitely hate him to death.

In addition, he approached Musk not just to make friends with him, but also to get some secrets about the other party's company, such as Starlink. If he offended the other party now, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

"Don't worry, maybe after you bring him here, he will thank you later. Go!"

"You're about to attack someone, and they can still thank me?"

Harrington complained in his heart, but now that things had come to this, he dared not say no and could only nod helplessly.
