The Golden Age of Basketball

When Gan Guoyang walked out of the police station, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, and he stayed in the Portland police station for a full 18 hours.

During these 18 hours, Gan Guoyang was not tortured to extract a confession, nor was he severely interrogated by criminal experts, nor was he forced to keep writing notes. He was just asked some questions, some questions that seemed to have nothing to do with the crime.

And he was asked the most questions related to Feng Guangyao, and the interrogator was always insinuating about the relationship between the two.

Gan Guoyang's answer, of course, was that he didn't know him. He only chatted with this funny drug dealer the day before yesterday when he organized Colter to buy drugs.

Gan Guoyang guessed that this should be because the police happened to see him when they were tracking Feng Guangyao in the investigation of a drug trafficking case.

That day, the two chatted on the street corner for a long time, which must have aroused the suspicion of the police. They might even think that Gan Guoyang, an NBA star, was a big fish in the local drug trade in Portland.

Of course, this is what Gan Guoyang guessed, and he also tried his best to deny his relationship with Feng Guangyao during the interrogation.

Fortunately, in addition to Gan Guoyang, Colter was also one of the people present. Gan Guoyang was sure that Colter must have also been summoned, and the confessions of the two should be consistent.

Even so, Gan Guoyang was not released until the next afternoon. What was worse, when he walked out of the police station, a large group of reporters were already waiting for him at the gate of the police station.

Seeing Gan Guoyang coming out, the reporters swarmed up like flies seeing shit, and picked up the microphone in their hands and poked at Gan Guoyang like a shit stick.

At this time, Gan Guoyang began to realize that it would be great if he could have a bodyguard, a strong man with a height of 6 feet 4 and a weight of 240 pounds, who could block all these annoying reporters in front of him at once.

At this time, the only person who helped Gan Guoyang fend off the reporters was his agent, David Falk, who had been waiting in front of the door.

Fortunately, Falk is also a tall and strong guy. He cut a bloody path for Gan Guoyang and took him into a Mercedes-Benz limousine—this car was sent by the Trail Blazers.

After getting in the car, Gan Guoyang saw a familiar figure in the back seat.

"Aunt Biao! Mr. Behrman!" Gan Guoyang shouted, sitting behind were Gan Guoyang's Aunt Biao, Gan Guohui's mother Qian Hui, and Mr. Behrman.

"Sit down, go to your house first, let's talk about this matter." Qian Hui said.

It turned out that after Gan Guoyang was taken away by the police yesterday, Falke immediately contacted Gan Guoyang's aunt, Qian Hui. After getting the news, Qian Hui flew to Portland overnight to deal with the matter.

"Cousin, I don't know what's going on. I was having dinner with Mr. Falk, and the police arrested me. They kept asking me about my relationship with that drug dealer, and he and I were really just I said a few words, I don’t know him at all!” Gan Guoyang finally couldn’t help but said in the car, he really couldn’t understand this inexplicable interrogation.

"Don't worry about Guoyang. I understand this matter. I have taken over this case. It has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to worry." Qian Hui was still very calm, and comforted Gan Guoyang.

"You took over? What case did you take over again? It's the assassination of the president again." Gan Guoyang knows that Qian Hui is very powerful in the American legal profession, and she has participated in some very important major cases. I don't know what it is this time big case.

"Let's go back and talk about it. Also, you have to think about how to face media interviews now. Although I'm sure it's not your problem, those newspapers and magazines don't think so." Qian Hui pointed out a problem that made Gan Guoyang even more troublesome. .

Gan Guoyang and the American media have never dealt with it very well, even in Portland. It is unknown what kind of news storm this arrest will cause in the league.

When everyone sat down at Gan Guoyang's residence, Gan Guoyang learned from Qian Hui why he was arrested and interrogated this time - he was completely involved in a riot by accident.

It all started in 1984.

On October 1984, 10, when Gan Guoyang was attending rookie training camp in Portland, Chinese-American writer Liu Yiliang was shot dead in the garage of his suburban San Francisco home.

Liu Yiliang's pen name is "Jiangnan", so this murder case is also called "Jiangnan case".

If it was simply murder for money and death, then this case would not be so involved.

In fact, Liu Yiliang’s background is extremely complicated. On the one hand, he went to Taiwan with the Kuomintang in 1949, studied in the political cadre class of the Ministry of National Defense, and later stationed in the United States as a special correspondent of the "Taiwan Daily". Obviously he belongs to the staff of the Kuomintang in Taiwan.

But then the Taiwan side discovered that Liu Yiliang turned out to be a double-faced spy. He was collecting intelligence for the mainland in private, and at the same time received work funds from Taiwan.

In order to punish Liu Yiliang's betrayal, the Kuomintang decided to send someone to assassinate Liu Yiliang.

However, Taiwan did not send military agents to carry out this operation. Instead, the intelligence chief contacted the Taiwanese gang organization, the Bamboo Union Gang, and dispatched Chen Qili, an assistant of the Bamboo Union Gang, to lead his subordinates Wu Dun and Dong Guisen to the United States to carry out the assassination operation.

In this way, the three killed Liu Yiliang in the garage in San Francisco, and then fled.

The subsequent development of the matter proved that everything was not that simple. Liu Yiliang was not only a double agent for Taiwan and the mainland, but also an informant for the US FBI!

This Jiangnan is basically a three-faced spy!

Because of this, the incident became more and more complicated, because the Taiwan side did not admit that Chen Qili and others were ordered by the government to carry out the assassination operation. After learning of Liu Yiliang's triple identity, they would not admit it.

However, Chen Qili stayed behind. After returning to Taiwan after the assassination, in order to prevent the Taiwan authorities from turning their faces and denying him, he gave a tape of himself to a friend. Chen Qili's friend "White Wolf" Zhang Anle Together, it was brought to the "Jiangnan Homicide Lecture Symposium" held by the Taiwanese Association in Los Angeles, USA in March 1985, announcing that "Jiang Xiaowu was the culprit in the murder of Jiangnan," pointing the finger at Taiwan officials.

At this time, Chen Qili and Wu Dun had been arrested in Taiwan, while Dong Guisen was still fleeing overseas.

The United States was naturally extremely shocked. Its informants were killed, or were assassinated by killers sent by official organizations in other regions in the United States. This made the US government furious, and Taiwan-US relations fell to the bottom.

Leaving aside Taiwan's many reactions, the United States has focused more on hunting down Dong Guisen.

If the original historical process is followed, Dong Guisen will be arrested in Brazil, extradited to the United States and sentenced, and eventually die in prison.

But here, history took a small turn. Dong Guisen escaped the police in Brazil, and in desperation he returned to North America and came to Canada.

In Canada, he was protected by the local Chinese gang, and came to Portland a few days ago, preparing to escape from the United States with the help of the Portland circle and seek refuge in the Eastern Hemisphere.

The big circle leader who happens to be in charge of this matter is none other than Feng Peiyu, brother of drug dealer Feng Guangyao.

Feng Peiyu didn't know Dong Guisen's real identity, he was just following orders, Feng Guangyao naturally didn't know even more.

But everything was still tracked down by the US FBI, which has been chasing it for a long time, and involved Gan Guoyang and Colter, who had nothing to do with it.

If it was just Colter buying drugs, the FBI would naturally not pay attention, but Gan Guoyang has a special identity, he is a Chinese, and the FBI also detected Gan Guoyang's future father-in-law, Wang Fuxi's father, a businessman from an electrical store from Taiwan, It also seems to be inextricably linked with the Taiwanese community in Los Angeles.

Holding the mentality that he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go, Gan Guoyang was included in the summons list and was taken to the police station by the Portland police last night for interrogation.

After interrogation, the FBI has basically confirmed that Gan Guoyang and Colter should have nothing to do with this matter. The two were released at [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] pm respectively.

After hearing these explanations, Gan Guoyang's mind was dizzy, he never thought that he would be involved in such an incident.

"Oh my god, what a disaster, such things can happen, I think Gan you can make a movie." Falk said with a smile after listening.

"If you tell me about my time travel, you will be even more scared to death! But then I will be made a specimen by the FBI..." Gan Guoyang thought in his heart.

"Anyway, everything is over. I think you should find yourself a legal adviser in the future. You have already hired several bodyguards. Celebrities always have to take more risks." Qian Hui suggested.

"The more important thing right now is how to deal with the media. You still have games tonight. You didn't go to training today. Everyone is not used to it. But knowing that you were arrested by the police, everyone was terrified!" Bellman also said, Gan Guoyang's failure to participate in training is really big news in the Trail Blazers.

"They can say whatever they like. Anyway, the clean-up is self-clearance. The police say I'm fine, so what can go wrong with me?" Gan Guoyang seemed indifferent.

"Guoyang, you can't say that. The media can make you into an angel, and the media can also turn you into a devil. It all depends on their mouth and pen. In the United States, the two most important things that cannot be ignored are: Law, and the second is news. Only when you have mastered these two points can you truly integrate into American society. Find a familiar newspaper and a good reporter and ask him to give you an exclusive interview to clarify this matter. You don’t need to Don't worry, I'll help you out."

In the Gan family, Gan Guoyang admired and feared his aunt the most—in other words, no one in the Gan family was afraid of her, but her words were indeed very reasonable.

"I see, cousin."
