American Tax Officer

Because within their group, the money laundering business was entirely managed by Sapir alone.

Thinking of this, Baldwin\'s mood became complicated.

A few days ago when the tax authorities swept through their group, he had tried contacting Sapir repeatedly but found it impossible to get in touch.

He had thought at the time that Sapir had gotten wind of the situation and fled first.

But unexpectedly, Sapir had ended up in the hands of the tax authorities.

And now, judging from David\'s tone and the accounts in front of him, it could be deduced that Sapir had probably succumbed to the tax authorities\' pressure!

"Our tax authority is fair in its dealings, we are not bandits, nor robbers. As long as you do as I say, we will neither take your money by force nor freeze it. Just pay the taxes you owe, and you will still have the right to use it. What do you think?"

Baldwin fell silent.

Why had he joined the Ditter Group, doing dangerous work, if not for money?

These accounts contained his life\'s savings.

If they were confiscated by the tax authority, it would be more painful than death!

But what the tax authority was asking him to do now was to betray Ditter...

To be honest, he certainly wasn\'t as loyal to Ditter as he claimed to be.

Over the years, Ditter had treated him like a workhorse.

Furthermore, the recent troubles with the Mexico Gang had cost him over 1.5 million, which had already made him very dissatisfied with his boss.

But considering the boss\'s power, he dared not act recklessly.

However, the recent assassination attempt on the Chief Tax Officer, which in this case was David, had resulted in the assets in the Ditter Lake District being seized and cleaned out, forcing Ditter himself to retreat back to the reservation. It was a clear sign that the empire was about to fall.

If he stubbornly continued to follow Ditter, it would undoubtedly lead to a dead end.

At least Ditter had the identity of a Native American as a shield, but Baldwin did not.

Considering all these factors, Baldwin decided to compromise and then said, "Fine, I can give you the testimony you want, but on the condition that, in addition to returning my money, you don\'t send me to jail!"

"As long as you provide a detailed testimony and stand out to accuse Ditter, I can agree to these two conditions!"

First of all, David and Baldwin had no personal grudges.

Baldwin was different from Ditter, Virginia, and Iman. These three were involved in the attempt on his life and had to be severely punished.

Secondly, their tax authority was only tasked with collecting taxes. As for criminals like Baldwin willing to pay, arresting them was the job of the police and the FBI.

Lastly, keeping Baldwin around might allow him to continue creating tax revenue for the tax authority in the future, which would be far more cost-effective than sending him to prison and wasting the tax authority\'s resources.

"Good, it\'s settled then!"

Seeing David agree so readily, Baldwin was very satisfied.

As for whether Ditter lives or dies, Baldwin didn\'t care much—what mattered was that he could continue to live freely and happily.

Everyone for themselves, that\'s the law of nature!

David turned to Simmons who was in front of him and instructed, "Take him to write the testimony, and bring the other two as well!"

Simmons nodded and immediately took Baldwin away.

About ten minutes later, he came back with two men, who were two of Ditter\'s top enforcers, named Biden and Gustav.

Although they had never actually seen David, they had already imprinted his image in their minds through photographs.

Therefore, upon seeing the \'culprit\' responsible for their downfall, a hint of murderous intent flashed in their eyes.

"Don\'t look at me with that kind of demeanor; I bear no ill will towards you!"

At David\'s words, they couldn\'t help but sneer, thinking to themselves that the tax authority had been relentless in their pursuit and crackdown over the past few days, nearly flipping the Lake District upside down. How could they claim to have no ill will?

"I\'ll get straight to the point; I need a testimony from you, detailing what you were responsible for in the Ditter Group, and ultimately, taking the stand to accuse Ditter!"

"Dream on!"

"We won\'t become traitors!"

David, still undisturbed, took out two pieces of paper from his pockets, unfolded them, and slid them across to the two men.

Seeing that these were related to their hidden accounts, they too showed the same shock as Baldwin had earlier.

"You\'ve been fighting and killing for years over money, haven\'t you? What if I freeze all of your funds, or even seize them? How would you feel?"

Upon hearing this, they immediately became enraged as if they wanted to devour David.

"Of course, as long as you cooperate with me and pay the taxes due, we can return your money to you!"

They looked at each other, but Biden seemed more loyal to Ditter and immediately refused, "Money is just an external possession. If the tax authority wants to freeze it, then freeze it. But to ask me to stab Ditter in the back, sorry, I can\'t do that!"

David did not rush, he turned to Gustav and asked, "And what about you?"

"I... I can\'t do that either!"
