Chapter 670: Chapter 337: Mass Defection, The Legislators Are Dumbfounded_2
“Could it be… even this prominent attorney is afraid of Inspector David?”
The audience watching also noticed the anomaly and their minds buzzed with speculation.
anwhile, Freemasonry mbers focusing on the hearing all looked grim, clearly realizing the situation was turning unfavorable.
Regrettably, even though they knew the situation was dire, there was nothing they could do but hope that it wouldn’t deteriorate further in the ti to co.
…
At the scene of the Congress.
...
Donald turned to look at David, giving him an approving smile.
Because before coming, David had deliberately been a tease and hadn’t told him too many details, so he didn’t know their chief attorney had managed to sort things out for them.
And now he finally understood why the kid had been so confident.
But on the other hand, fixing Turpin was rely solving one big problem, and the Internal Revenue Service was still far from safe.
After all, the lawyers invited by the House of Congressman were not just Turpin; there were several others.
Reining in his thoughts, Donald turned his attention back to the podium.
At this mont, Mitchellson, standing at the center of the stage, also realized that Turpin must have defected for so reason, which infuriated him.
To tell the truth, after Deputy Director Madu Aike from the FBI had arrived and made his statents, Mitchellson had suspected there might be a mole in their team; otherwise, the Deputy Director wouldn’t have co in person, much less utter such coercive and tempting words.
He had carefully considered the suspects in the team afterward but had never doubted Turpin.
They had worked together many tis and had a good personal friendship, trusting each other out of the ordinary.
Unexpectedly, it was this most trusted person who had just made him enormously embarrassed in front of the whole world, so at this mont Mitchellson itched to stand up and punch him.
But considering this was Congress and the global dia was broadcasting live, he had to forcibly suppress his rage.
Struggling to calm his thoughts, Mitchellson turned to a man sitting to the right of Turpin and said, “Mr. Latou, do you have anything you’d like to add?”
His thoughts were like many others’: even if Turpin had defected, there were other attorney mbers here.
As long as these lawyers stepped forward and continued to attack the Internal Revenue Service using their expertise and eloquence, there would still be a chance of victory.
He thought it a good strategy, but the reality that followed delivered him a harsh slap.
“I don’t have anything to add!”
Hisss…
This statent hit Mitchellson, Langman, and the Freemasonry mbers like a hamr to the chest, leaving them almost breathless.
Turpin’s defection was bad enough, but had Mr. Latou, the attorney, also defected?
How were they supposed to continue the fight today?
“My god, what’s this supposed to an? Why don’t the attorneys have any comnts at the hearing? Are they here just to watch the show?”
“Based on past situations, both Turpin and Latou love to show off their eloquence at Congress. Why are they playing ostrich today?”
“Look at the shocked expressions on Mitchellson and those congressn; they clearly didn’t anticipate this. There must have been an internal mishap!”
“It seems that way. Could it be that these two top attorneys have secretly turned to the Internal Revenue Service, deliberately embarrassing those congressn?”
This absurd and comical hearing also left the public watching in astonishnt.
“Damn, these assholes, what the hell are they doing!”
“Damn it…”
“How could this happen…”
At the sa ti, Freemasonry mbers watching from various places also cursed profusely.
First Turpin, and now Latou; the two top-notch lawyers they had brought to target the Internal Revenue Service had both defected. What were they going to do now?
Even more dire was the thought that if even these two had defected, what about the rest of the attorney mbers?
This thought alone sent shivers down the spines of the Freemasonry mbers.
If that was the case, then they weren’t just going to lose today’s hearing. They might even go down in the history of congressional hearings, becoming the laughing stock for countless years.
After all, since the establishnt of the congressional hearing system, there had never been a hearing like this, where all lawyers on one side had been turned.
It was downright absurd!
Yet what they feared might co to pass was becoming reality.
After Latou’s statent, the other few attorneys didn’t show much surprise; rather, they looked uneasy and unnatural.
In other words, their spine-tingling guess might actually be correct—not just one or two, but perhaps… the entire attorney team was comprised of traitors!
At this mont, the Freemasonry mbers felt their morale hit rock bottom.
On the other hand, Mitchellson naturally also discerned the ominous signs from the expressions of the other attorney team mbers.
While enraged, he was also quite baffled.
You could say that David was capable at dealing with Turpin and Latou, but how did he manage to win over the entire attorney team?
