Chapter 967: Real Capability and Going on TV
The community reconstruction couldn’t be delayed any longer. After all, it had started snowing in New York last night.
If they didn’t take care of the holes, these families would only be in slightly better shape than holess people.
Foggy had talked to Luke over the phone and they had determined that repairs were the priority.
The interior refurbishnts could be delayed for a few days.
The residents wouldn’t complain about renovations which they didn’t have to pay for themselves.
While the residents who had received help were grateful, they also couldn’t help but feel that the donations were a “sinkhole” for this great philanthropist.
However, when Foggy had screened the applicants, he had also talked about the donor.
All the applicants knew that the donor didn’t have any demands, and didn’t even leave his na. He was just giving fixed donations to the charity fund, and everyone could only admire him.
Unlike those who made a big deal out of donating money and wanted the whole world to know about it, the donor this ti wasn’t even looking for recognition, and didn’t care about their gratitude.
Of course, they were wrong on this point.
Luke went upstairs with a smile. He was quite happy when he saw these people.
He wasn’t a saint, but seeing people in dire straits have so hope for the future was always better than seeing a bunch of bitter faces.
He hadn’t been in the Clinton area for long, so it wasn’t a bad idea for the ti being to make the environnt around his house a little better.
Unlike those who were wholeheartedly devoted to charity, he did it for his own benefit.
Hoping for an honest and stable society in the Clinton area was futile, and nobody would be in a good mood about the various criminals who freely road the place.
Foggy and Matt’s firm already had so reputation in this circle.
They had helped out many tis in the past, and many unlucky hoodlums and bikers had benefited from them.
Even if the gratitude was passing, they would still look for these two lawyers the next ti sothing happened, so many people consciously stayed away from them.
There was no specific range, but very few thieves and small fry would break out into a scuffle within a radius of two to three hundred ters of the law firm.
Nothing could be done about the sale of weed here since that was their livelihood.
Coupled with the community reconstruction program which Luke had co up with, there were basically no more hooligans here.
Of course, Luke and Matt had done even more.
So of the more ruthless gangs, such as the Irish, the Russians, and the factions under Kingpin, had been put down by the two one after another.
The gangs in Clinton had been behaving themselves recently, and the cri rate on the streets had dropped significantly.
So of the criminals were seriously injured, so were crippled, so were dead, and so were in hiding.
That being said, when Luke went upstairs and saw a caraman and a beautiful TV reporter with a microphone, Luke still mumbled to himself, “There haven’t been any bad cases in this area recently. Why is the dia here?”
He had seen the news van downstairs earlier, so he had specially co up to take a look, hoping that it wasn’t a bad thing.
He wasn’t overthinking it.
A few people died every month in the Clinton area, which wasn’t even worth making the news.
If no one died in a month, then... hm? That would make the news.
The victims here were mostly ordinary people, not gang mbers.
Most private battles were cleaned up by the gangs and wouldn’t blow up in public, which was the sa as saying they never happened at all.
Recalling that he hadn’t heard of any violent deaths in this area recently, Luke made a rough guess.
But when he heard what the female reporter said, he knew that he had guessed wrong.
“...Hell’s Kitchen has been undergoing a new change recently. After the severe serial explosions last ti, a large charity donation has been channeled into the area, and the living environnts of victims who are most in need are being restored...” The beautiful reporter’s words echoed in the corridor as many people watched.
She wasn’t speaking very fast, but her speech was clear and her pronunciation was precise. Her expression was also on point and she looked very capable
She would be more believable if this wasn’t Hell’s Kitchen.
Luke scratched his head.
The young blonde reporter happened to be near the entrance of the law firm. If he wanted to get there, he would have to pass by the cara.
Although a lot of people in Arica loved to go on TV and would even go over to ss around when they saw a cara, Luke wasn’t in the habit of doing that.
If possible, he hoped to never appear on TV in this lifeti.
The female reporter wasn’t like many reporters who beca chatterboxes as soon as they were holding the microphone, saying a bunch of irrelevant things to the cara.
In less than two minutes, she gave clear opening remarks.
Luke figured out her reason for being here.
She had been drawn here by the latest happenings in the Clinton area and New York’s notorious Hell’s Kitchen.
Or rather, she had been drawn by the massive community reconstruction program and volunteer training.
It wouldn’t be strange if sothing like this happened elsewhere in New York.
Harlem or Brooklyn could also be just as bad.
But soone had actually donated a large sum of money for such a “high-class” community project in Clinton, which was known as Hell’s Kitchen. Most New Yorkers would only have one thought – this person had to have a screw loose!
It wasn’t that they weren’t sympathetic, but there weren’t many good people in Hell’s Kitchen.
A good person who had the ability to fork out a lot of money would definitely be on the local news in New York.
Now, it was really going to be on the news.
Thinking back, Luke rembered the eye-catching logo on the news van downstairs.
It wasn’t from a TV station, but a “Trish” logo.
He wasn’t too familiar with the na.
He had indeed been busy recently. Although he hadn’t given up his habit of watching local news, there were truly too many local news channels in New York.
The number of TV stations in Arica’s biggest city and the world’s financial center wasn’t sothing that so small country TV channels could compare with.
Most of the reporters he saw on the news were in their forties and weren’t the gossipy type, but delivered professional reports, which suited him.
He had never seen this beautiful reporter on the news before.
After she finished her spiel, she went to the law firm for a typical “assault” interview.
Of course, even Foggy should have learned of her movents in a shabby place like Nelson and Murdock, let alone Matt.
Luke entered the office with a smile.
Not only weren’t there many people in the law firm now, the number was continuing to shrink.
After the cara entered the office, many people pulled their hats down to cover their faces and left in a hurry.
