Chapter 146 Goodbye Hoover

Since Vito Sr. unified the American underworld, large-scale wars like this one have rarely happened. There are so many murders in New York today, and they must give an explanation to someone.

The old godfather is responsible for explaining to the big guys who came to New York to attend the National Gang Conference in order to obtain their understanding and continue to maintain peace among gangs; while Shen Long is going to meet with Edgar Hoover to obtain Understanding at the government level.

Shen Long made a phone call, and then took Albert Neri to the place mentioned on the phone. When he arrived at the place, he left Albert outside and went in alone to meet Edgar Hoover.

"You've caused me a lot of trouble!" Edgar Hoover kept his anger and looked directly at Shen Long with two falcon-like eyes. He indeed found no evidence that Shen Long was involved in this matter, but on this occasion , and he doesn’t need evidence.

"This is just a self-defense counterattack!" Shen Long spread his hands and was not frightened by Edgar Hoover. If he really planned to deal with the Corleone family, he would not let himself in, "You know , the Corleone family had previously rejected the offer to cooperate with them in drug trafficking, so they were attacked by them."

"We have always only engaged in some gray areas of business, and we will not participate in things like drug trafficking." Drug trafficking and gambling are also different for Hoover. "Killing these people means that drugs will enter the United States. The speed has been slowed down, which is also a good thing for you."

"But what happened today embarrasses me and the FBI!" Edgar Hoover reluctantly accepted his explanation. He came here not for accountability, but for how to deal with the aftermath. He had always claimed that within the United States Without the existence of large-scale gangs, this gang war directly hit him in the face.

"It's not the first time something like today happened. Their assassination of Vito and Santino had already started." Shen Long still refused to take the responsibility, but he still gave a solution, "Later Someone will surrender to the police. From a legal perspective, the person responsible for these cases can be found. They are not gang members. They are just vendettas or murders against these guys for personal reasons. They are all ordinary criminals. This case has nothing to do with gangsters."

Finding someone to go to jail and taking the blame is not the exclusive domain of the Young and Dangerous gangsters in Hong Kong. The Italian gangsters are also skilled in this skill. In the original novel, Mike was able to return to New York from Sicily because his godfather convinced someone from the Bu Qiqiu family who had been raped. The member who was sentenced to death took the responsibility for killing Sollozzo and McRobles on his behalf.

As long as they are willing to spend money, there are people who are willing to take the blame for the Corleone family. Tom Hagen will use legal means to get the minimum sentence for them. After entering prison, they will be taken care of and live as comfortably as outside. After a period of time, when people gradually forget about this incident, they will be released on medical parole. On the day they are released from prison, core members of the family will visit them, express their gratitude and leave generous gifts.

"So, how to solve the problem of McRobles? Where did he go? He is different from those gang leaders!" Edgar Hoover then asked.

Shen Long knew that Bassini's matter was over. He smiled and took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Hoover, "Officer McRobles received reliable information from an informant. During this time, he They are all investigating the matter secretly. Because the matter involves some sensitive people, he temporarily cut off contact with the police station to protect himself."

Hoover took it and looked at it with a smile on his face. This was conclusive evidence that a certain Truman staff had contact with Elizabeth Bentley. With this, his life would be easier.

Shen Long observed his emotional changes and began to push further, "It is said that Officer McRobles also received instructions from the FBI during the execution of his mission. I wonder if this is true?"

If Hoover was there to help carry him, McRobles' disappearance would have nothing to do with the Corleone family. He could return to the police station in good condition without having to explain too much to his superiors, and maybe he could be promoted to another level. , can better serve the Corleone family. After all, Shen Long has been in charge of him for such a long time, so he can't let it go in vain.

"During the Al Capone era, barbers, bartenders, hotel waiters, hotel doormen, taxi drivers, shoe shiners, and even beggars all over Chicago knew a special phone number to call if they encountered something suspicious. If there are people or information about him, he will immediately call this phone number and report it to Al Capone, so that Al Capone can always know accurate information." Seeing that Hoover seemed to be moving, Shen Long mentioned another thing. Son.

"It can be expected that although the war is over, the confrontation between the United States and the Red Empire will continue for a long time, and more and more spies like Elizabeth Bentley will appear in the United States. The Corleone family is willing to Help the FBI search and clean up these spies." Shen Long knew that during Hoover's tenure, he never took serious action against the gangs. He was more concerned about his own power and enemy spies.

"We can even help you conduct this operation in Italy." Hoover now felt the threat of the newly established CIA and was in urgent need of supplementary overseas power. "We can also provide assistance for your overseas operations through our own channels." "

This help is also mutually beneficial. Hoover's FBI is facilitated, and Shen Long's smuggling channel is covered with tiger skin, which can reduce a lot of troubles.

The list of spies involved in the Truman administration, domestic intelligence support and foreign channel support finally moved Hoover. He nodded and accepted the matter, "I will send a copy to the New York Police later. A letter of commendation is issued to commend Officer McRobles for his contribution in this matter."

"In addition, from now on, there will never be such a large-scale private fight again!" Hoover warned.

"This lesson has been profound enough for other families. I believe they will not make any moves for a long time in the future, and we have always hoped for peace." Shen Long responded with a smile.

After talking about this, Shen Long stood up and said goodbye to Hoover with a relaxed mood, and returned home. The old godfather used his many years of prestige to stabilize the gang leaders.
