Bayar jumped up in disbelief and exclaimed, "oh shit! Are you saying Harlotte was exposed to radioactive material?"
Seeing that Bayar didn't avoid Joe Ga, the agent nodded heavily and said, "The Geiger counter reacted; Harlotte must have come into contact with radioactive material recently."
With that, the agent glanced at Joe Ga and said to Bayar, "Boss, that guy died a gruesome death. I think..."
As soon as Joe Ga saw Bayar about to speak, his face changing color, he spread his hands and said, "Don't glare at me. I'm no god, how the hell would I know Harlotte had contact with radioactive material?
Buddy, even if it's true, I'd rather believe it was Harlotte's own doing. Otherwise, we're in over our heads with this."
The always calm Bayar, pushed to extremes, nodded reluctantly and said to the agent, "Take Harlotte's body back for a thorough examination, I need the details of everyone he has been in contact with recently..."
After the agent left, Bayar turned and kicked the wall forcefully, grabbed his head and rubbed it hard, cursing, "FUCK, FUCK, FUCK..."
Joe Ga would never tell Bayar that the radioactive material was purely a frame-up.
His purpose for doing so was to solidify the connection between Harlotte and the dirty bomb, to pressure the people behind Harlotte, to get them to compromise quicker.
The so-called 200 million military contract from Howard, Mr. Qiao was somewhat interested.
If they don't compromise, there's nothing to talk about!
Framing Harlotte was also to completely legitimize the crackdown on the Russian Mafia, as the ones he had recently been in touch with were them...
And it would focus Bayar's attention on Harlotte, that guy was extremely sharp. Distracting him would prevent him from interfering with P·B's subsequent operations.
Most importantly, that son of a bitch Harlotte had been going against Mr. Qiao for too long.
He was planning to use Bayar's hand to pull out and hammer to death the whole series of dark chains behind Harlotte.
If there happened to be a connection found between Harlotte and Sergey, the Russian oligarch, it would 'urge' Sergey to go to Moscow, then the 'Engineer' would have a chance.
Those three guys were painfully slow in their doing; Mr. Qiao had to give them a hand, otherwise it would be questionable whether they could complete their task before the end of the election.
With all these benefits, framing an enemy was no pressure for Mr. Qiao.
So what if Bayar eventually finds out that Harlotte had nothing to do with Hafali?
The radioactive material was discovered by you guys; the people from P·B don't know...
Looking at Bayar, pale as iron, Joe Ga patted him sympathetically on the arm and said, "I'll leave this to you; I'm heading back. I still need to chat with that Howard.
Oh, and those Russians too, I have to take them away; I promised Eric to finish them off."
Faced with a series of blows, Bayar's mind was a bit chaotic, and he nodded helplessly, "You go first, tell your men to clear the way and let the Long Island county police in.
I'll inform the New York police department, but your ambush on SWAT is going to be a big problem..."
Joe Ga beckoned to Monica, who was not far away, then smiled at Bayar, "I'll take care of the police matter myself!
Buddy, you need to mobilize more resources to dig out Harlotte's dark chain. I have a feeling you might make a big discovery!"
Joe Ga had just finished speaking and was about to signal his guys to leave when his phone rang...
Once the call was connected, Joe Ga heard Thompson say cheerfully, "Boss, do you have a TV over there? Turn it on and take a look, haha..."
