American TV series Detective's Daily Life

Wharton Manor.

Chuck drove, taking Gideon and JJ, and after the guard at the guard booth contacted him inside, he waited for the gate to slowly open, then drove in, followed the path, and drove for several minutes before arriving in front of the manor.

"Hopefully not here."

JJ looked at the huge castle estate and said worriedly.

If Amazing Amy is really kidnapped here, it will be extremely difficult to find her. God knows how many privately built secret rooms there are. Even if they get a search warrant, it will be difficult to find anyone.

"Unfortunately, this is it."

Gideon narrowed his eyes as he looked at the two people walking out of the manor gate.

"lawyer!"

JJ looked over and saw the security captain walking out accompanied by a suit lawyer. As a member of the BAU, she was responsible for external liaison. Although she was not a main member, she was somewhat proficient in criminal psychological profiling. .

They called the security captain before they came. Under normal circumstances, the security captain would talk to them first, dispel their suspicions, and then go directly to a lawyer to accompany them. It was obviously for precaution.

"Mr. Huck Stephen?"

Gideon stepped forward: "Jason Gideon, FBI, this is my colleague Jennifer Jeange, and Bureau consultant Dr. Chuck Wolf, who is this?"

"Harvey Spector."

The handsome Suits lawyer confidently said his name to everyone.

“Nice suit! (Nice suit!)”

JJ said slightly mockingly.

"Thanks."

Suits lawyer Harvey touched his custom-made suit: "People judge people by their appearance, so whether you admit it or not, we all have to dress better."

"Isn't this suit cheap?"

JJ couldn't help but said: "Can Mr. Stephen afford a lawyer like you?"

"It's not expensive, only $2,000."

Suits lawyer Harvey smiled: "As for whether Mr. Stephen can afford me? He really can't afford me, but he has a good boss and is a long-term client of our law firm. If he has any legal issues, he can come to us. For consultation, we are here at your call.”

"So Mr. Stephen knows he has a problem?"

Gideon looked at the security captain.

“Our advice is that whenever someone comes to you, it’s best to contact a lawyer as soon as possible.”

Suits lawyer Harvey answered for the security captain: "Being prepared is like insurance. You can use it or not, but you can't live without it."

"Do you know anything about Amazing Amy's disappearance?"

Chuck looked at Harvey Suits.

"I know, I just watched the news."

Suits lawyer Harvey smiled, then opened his hands and said disapprovingly: "What does this have to do with my client?"

While Amazing Amy's parents called the police, they were dealing with inquiries from Chuck and the others while imagining the plot of a new book. Despite their busy schedule, they did not forget to announce the news, which instantly became the headline news in New York today.

"If you knew it was your client who did it, would you still defend him?"

Chuck looked at him.

"Do you have evidence?"

Suits lawyer Harvey's smile faded a lot: "If not, this hypothesis does not exist."

"Did you do it? Mr. Huck Stephen."

Chuck looked at the security captain who had been silent.

"of course not."

The security captain shook his head.

"You heard me, any other questions?"

Suits star Harvey said.

"You saw it too."

Chuck looked at Harvey Suits: "It's time for the insurance to be paid."

With that said, he turned around and walked back.

"We will find the evidence, Mr. Stephen."

Gideon squinted at the uneasy security captain: "The most difficult thing about solving a case is not being able to find the suspect. Once the suspect is identified, it will be very simple to look for evidence. Everything you walk through will leave traces. This is New York." , there are many surveillance cameras from the city to here, Mr. Stephen, you are not as cautious as you think."

"We know this is not what you want to do."

JJ advised sincerely: "Amazing Amy is just a girl who has just grown up. She is an idol in the eyes of countless American children, especially New York children. Mr. Stephen, you also have children, you really want your children to One day they saw on TV that their idol disappeared and was murdered, and were you an accomplice?"

"OK, that's enough!"

Suits lawyer Harvey interrupted: "If you continue like this, I will treat you as slandering and intimidating my clients."

"JJ, let's go."

Gideon greeted.

Chuck was already sitting in the driver's seat, waiting for them to get in the car, fasten their seat belts, and drive away.

"is it him?"

JJ confirmed.

"It's him!"

Chuck was sure, and Gideon nodded.

The look in the security captain's eyes could deceive ordinary people, but not them.

"Now how to do?"

JJ subconsciously looked at Chuck in the cab.

"Let's see if Garcia can find evidence directly linking him to Amazing Amy's disappearance."

Chuck said.

"What if not?"

JJ worried: "Although New York is the place with the most surveillance in the United States, we may not be able to capture usable evidence."

"No?"

Chuck drove the car out of the manor, parked outside, turned off the engine, and then said: "Then I will ask the IRS agents to talk to him and arrest him for tax evasion as a breakthrough."

"How do you know he evaded taxes?"

Seeing that Chuck was always calm and confident, JJ's worries calmed down a bit and she said curiously.

"As long as they can afford an accountant, everyone will evade taxes."

Chuck said bluntly: "It just depends on how much it is and whether it's legal."

"Isn't this a bit too absolute?"

JJ hesitated.

"Not absolutely."

Chuck said: "The U.S. tax laws are too heavy, and normal people who are still interested in money will avoid taxes as much as possible."

"What if the security captain's accountant is also a professional hired by his boss?"

JJ immediately thought of the Suits lawyer just now.

"Accounting, no one is more professional than me."

Chuck said bluntly.

"JJ, we have to believe in Dr. Wolfe's ability."

Gideon smiled and said, "Call Garcia and tell her to hold on tight."

"good."

JJ stopped asking and started making phone calls.

Chuck also sent a text message to Susan, the ace agent of the IRS Financial Crimes Division, asking her to send the security captain's tax status.

As soon as I sent it, Susan called me: "Do you know that you are abusing your power?"

"I am only reporting suspected tax evasion. This is my right as a consultant. As for whether to investigate, that is your authority."

Chuck said calmly.

"You are so boring."

Susan complained and was curious: "Why don't you go to the director directly for this kind of thing?"

"Do you need me to find him?"

Chuck asked rhetorically.

"...I'll adjust it for you right now."

Susan was speechless.

She had handled major cases with Chuck and knew his abilities. She still wanted to cooperate with him in the future. How could she refute Chuck's face on such a trivial matter? What she said before was just a joke between friends. Who would have thought that Chuck didn't talk to her and was still acting serious, which made her a little bored.

After hanging up the phone, Chuck took the phone and started looking through the security captain's tax return records.

"Are we considering this case being jointly handled by the FBI and the IRS?"

JJ felt much better when she saw that Chuck had taken care of the IRS in just a few words, and couldn't help but joke.

"It doesn't count."

While flipping through it, Chuck said: "If we can find evidence, we will give priority to using the evidence to capture him. Tax issues can only be used as a last resort."

"Any sharp weapon is a double-sided sword. If used well, it will be harmful. If used poorly, it will backfire on itself."

Gideon said quietly.

JJ nodded, then asked in confusion: "What are we doing here?"

"wait."

Chuck said.

Seeing that Chuck didn't say anything about waiting, JJ couldn't help but look at Gideon. Gideon smiled at her and didn't say anything. He just opened the car window and looked at the manor outside the car.

Inside Wharton Manor.

After Chuck and the others left, Suits lawyer Harvey's expression changed immediately, and he looked at the security captain with a cold look: "Did you do it?"

"of course not."

The security captain smiled and said: "The boss will be back soon. Do you want to wait for him here?"

"good."

Suits lawyer Harvey narrowed his eyes and nodded in agreement.

After watching the security captain enter, he walked to the grass, took out his mobile phone, and called his female boss: "Jessica, we are in trouble."

Well-known New York law firm, Pearson Hardman LLP.

In a large office in an office building.

A middle-aged African-American woman answered the phone: "Harvey, what's the trouble?"

She is the owner of this law firm, Jessica Pearson, and the first "Pearson" in the name of the law firm is taken from her surname.

"Andy Wharton may be involved in kidnapping Amazing Amy."

Suits lawyer Harvey said solemnly.

"Is there any evidence?"

Jessica Pearson frowned.

"Not yet, but I know."

Harvey Suits affirmed.

"The jury is still out."

Jessica Pearson said solemnly: "As Andy Wharton's lawyer, you must provide good legal services to large clients who provide the law firm with an income of millions of dollars every year."

"What if it's really him?"

Suits' Harvey asked: "What will happen to the image of our law firm if Amazing Amy's case is solved in the future?"

“What does this have to do with the image of the law firm?”

Jessica Pearson smiled: "We are just following the law to provide our clients with the most legal and efficient legal services. If there is any impact, it will only be a positive publicity for our law firm."

“What about public image?”

Suits star Harvey pressed: "Don't you always ask me to pay more attention to the image of law firms in the public eye?"

"Then just do a few more free legal aid cases."

Jessica Pearson said calmly: "This is what I have always asked you to do to prove the social responsibility of our law firm, but you have been resisting and unwilling to do it, right?"

Hardcover lawyer Harvey suddenly fell silent.

"Harvey."

Jessica Pearson's voice softened. After all, Harvey was her number one confidant, and she trained him with her own hands. He was different from other subordinates, so she advised: "We must do everything in accordance with the law, An." Dee Wharton has not been proven guilty. He is our big client. If he is proven guilty in the future, he will still be our big client as long as he needs it. At that time, we will defend him as innocent or guilty. Our lawyers are just Tools have no attributes of good or evil. Everyone has the right to get legal aid. If everyone is as entangled as you are, then there is no need for the lawyer industry to exist at all, because our clients have all kinds of problems, no The problem is they won’t spend that much money hiring us every year, right?”

"why me?"

Harvey Suits said suddenly.

"Oh, be mature!"

Jessica Pearson couldn't bear it anymore and reprimanded: "I know you have always insisted that you are righteous, but we all know that playing the game of 'I am kind-hearted and can't see the poor, let the poor move away from my eyes'" The trick is completely self-deception. In the lawyer profession, justice is not our priority, the law is! As long as everything is in compliance with the law, we can consider other things as appropriate, but we must not lose the big for the small!"

"why me?"

Suits asked again.

"..."

Jessica Pearson was silent for a moment and said: "It was Andy Walton who called me personally and asked me to send the best lawyer in the law firm, and you are the best lawyer in our law firm."

Having said this, she could no longer help but wonder: "Is Dr. Chuck Wolf really that powerful? I heard he can read people's minds."

"He asked me right away, do you know about Amazing Amy's disappearance? If you knew it was your client who did it, would you still defend him?"

Suits lawyer Harvey laughed at himself: "Do you think he is awesome?"

"It's really awesome!"

Jessica Pearson marveled.

In fact, although their lawyers have always promoted the concept that no matter what happens, they must have lawyers prepared, but they all know that if their clients are not guilty, they will generally not come to them.

Once you find them, there will be problems in theory.

Andy Wharton called her directly. The apparent reason was that he had heard about Dr. Chuck Wolfe's name, and in order to prevent the security captain from inadvertently leaking some things that should not be leaked, such as taxes and business secrets. Class confidentiality, so she was asked to send the best lawyer to accompany her.

But it was obvious that he was more afraid that Dr. Chuck Wolfe, who had become famous after several major cases, could really read some secrets from the security captain that could not be known to others, so he called regardless of suspicion. They intervene directly.

After hearing what Harvey said, Jessica Pearson completely understood that Andy Walton should really be nervous and nervous about this ability to see through Harvey's sense of justice under the surface of Suits at a glance. careful.

"Harvey, do what you have to do."

Jessica Pearson suppressed her exclamation to Chuck and said solemnly: "This is something you cannot avoid as a lawyer."

"I see."

Suits lawyer Harvey was silent for a moment, hung up the phone, looked at the beautiful scenery in the billionaire's manor, and couldn't help but move his eyes to the manor buildings. Is the girl called Amazing Amy just across the street from him? What about building a wall?

Dusk.

Outside the manor.

A stretched Lincoln drove past Chuck's car and stopped. The window rolled down, revealing the face of billionaire Andy Wharton. He glanced at Chuck and the other three, and his eyes fell on Chuck. He looked at Gram and said with a smile: "You must be Dr. Chuck Wolf?"

"it's me."

Chuck nodded.

"Thank you for watching the door for me."

Andy Walton smiled and said: "The security situation in New York has been really bad recently. With you here, we can feel more at ease."

JJ immediately glared.

"If you don't mind, I'll have someone bring you some food later."

Andy Wharton glanced at JJ and smiled even more happily: "I just flew back from San Francisco, so I went in first. Like you, I am also hungry and need to enjoy my own delicious meal. "
