The Wolf of Los Angeles.
Chapter 203: Voluntary Resignation, Arnold Takes Over
Early morning, Santa Monica seaside apartment building.
Guerrero was a little nervous. He looked at his secret girlfriend, Irene, and said, "Leave now. Don't stay here."
Irene, a red-haired college student, was sleepy and unhappy with her boyfriend waking her up in the middle of the night: "Hey, are you crazy?"
Guerrero picked up the packed backpack and handed it to Irene: "You must remember what I say next!"
Seeing how serious he was, Ailin quickly picked up the wet wipes on the table and wiped her face to sober herself up.
Guerrero said, "Remember the house in the canyon? Remember, don't tell anyone, I have some things stored in the basement of the house, in the tool cabinet in the southwest."
Ever since he couldn't get through to Meryl, he had a bad feeling: "There's still some cash in the house, some famous watches and jewelry, enough to support you until you finish college and find a good job."
Ailin was stunned: "What happened?"
"You don't need to know. It won't do you any good." Guerrero continued, "If, I mean if, something happens to me, or I commit suicide, you take out the things in the tool cabinet and find a media outlet... No, traditional media is useless. Find an online media outlet that dares to expose the information and mail it to them using a mailbox in a remote area."
Irene knew something must have happened: "Let's go together!"
Guerrero shook his head: "I am a native of Los Angeles. My parents and siblings all live in Los Angeles. I can't harm them."
"Go!" he urged, "Go quickly!"
Erin shouldered her bag and left the apartment building.
Ten minutes later, there was a knock on Guerrero's door.
He went to open the door and in came his colleague and friend Carol.
Behind them, there were several other people following.
Guerrero understood immediately: "Do we have to take this step?"
Carol said directly: "The money you earn over the years will be transferred to your parents' account, and they will also receive an additional subsidy, and each of your brothers and sisters will get one."
This is both about money and a threat.
Guerrero was prepared: "What am I going to do?"
"Write a suicide note." Carol was also very serious: "Take all the blame."
Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, strange shouts were suddenly heard in the seaside apartment building.
Then there was a crisp sound, as if something was broken.
Early morning exercisers shouted: "Someone jumped from the building! Someone jumped from the building!"
Another person called the police.
LAPD quickly arrived and cordoned off the scene.
After the follow-up support arrived, they checked the scene, understood the situation, and found a suicide note in the pocket of the deceased.
The FBI also arrived at this time and took over the case.
Lena woke up early yesterday morning. After figuring out the situation, she formally reported the incident to the FBI.
But Jennifer waited until daybreak when her supervisor came to work to approve the procedures before coming to arrest Guerrero.
At this moment when the outcome was decided, the donkey and the elephant suddenly reached an unspoken understanding.
In Sacramento, diagonally across from Schwarzenegger's campaign office is the California State Capitol.
In a clubhouse next to the Capitol, Schwarzenegger's campaign manager Daniel Ketchel met with Governor's Assistant Foster.
Daniel directly took a re-edited copy of the document and handed it to Foster: "Take a look."
Foster took it and was not at all panicked when he saw the contents of the document. Los Angeles reported the situation last night. Although it was very troublesome, someone had already taken responsibility for the specific charges.
He threw the documents directly on the table and denied: "It's all rumors and frame-ups."
Daniel did not refute, and said directly: "Resign voluntarily, and you still have some dignity."
Foster was well aware that the so-called resignation did not refer to himself as the governor's assistant.
Daniel added: "We are fighting for this position, not a certain person. When the position is gone, there is no need for anything else."
Things had come to this point, directly involving Governor Gray Davis, and Foster had nothing more to say.
He was silent for a moment, then stood up and said, "Wait for my news."
Daniel said, "Don't keep us waiting too long."
In mid-June 2003, when the California gubernatorial recall election began, the incumbent governor, Gray Davis, announced his resignation as governor, and the donkeys representing the blue side voluntarily retreated.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Hollywood superstar pushed by the elephants, won without a fight and became the 38th Governor of California.
The two sides also reached several agreements in secret.
On the same day, Schwarzenegger delivered a victory speech through Fox News, in which he praised his predecessor Gray Davis for his contributions to the development of California.
Since last year, the red-blue dispute that has been a headache for many people has entered a short buffer period.
But Schwarzenegger's victory does not mean that the elephants have an absolute advantage, because the donkeys are still the majority in the state legislature.
Subsequently, the FBI Los Angeles branch held a press conference to announce the details of the missing girl's case exposed by Fox News.
Jennifer Huey made a case report. In the past two years, a total of seven girls have disappeared from the Super Star Training School. The murderers are Bro Derick, the former director of the school, and his assistant Guerrero Ente.
The two men used the bait of offering movie roles to the students to seduce the carefully selected students, tricked them into a secluded place, insulted and killed them, and then transported all the bodies out to sea and dumped them into the sea.
Before the incident, Bro Derek had committed suicide in prison due to depression.
Guerrero Ente committed suicide out of fear of crime, leaving behind a handwritten suicide note in which he explained the crime.
In addition, in this case, Ackerman Films, the major shareholder of the Super Star Training School, bears an unshirkable management responsibility.
The executive vice president of Akerman Films voluntarily surrendered himself and assumed the corresponding responsibility.
But the subsequent punishment is at most suspended sentence.
Because Akerman Films acted quickly, it found the relatives of the seven missing persons on the list, paid a large sum of compensation, and successfully obtained a settlement agreement.
After Harley rescued Lena and received compensation, she happily left Los Angeles.
As for the results of the case, it doesn’t matter whether the public believes it or not. What matters is that the official has given you an answer. Whether you believe it or not is your business.
The red and blue camps reached a tacit consensus, and almost all mainstream media remained silent.
Just like the squids are messing around all over the world, the mainstream media in Europe and the United States have always selectively ignored it.
At the same time, Melissa Akerman announced her resignation as CEO of Akerman Pictures after undergoing routine questioning by the FBI.
It wasn't the end of it. Akerman Films sold the copyrights of several films and raised tens of millions of dollars in compensation, but soon became insolvent and declared bankruptcy.
The Ackerman family launched crisis public relations, declaring that they would focus their main energy on charity in the future and make more contributions to the development of American society.
Ackerman Charitable Foundation, Santa Monica.
Melissa walked back and forth in the office and asked Barack Bernanke, "Have you investigated the matter I asked you to investigate?"
Barack said, "I checked. The host of Fox News that day was named Harley Wayne, an investigative reporter. Her former boss was the famous Fox host Gretchen. I used many connections and quietly mobilized many Jewish people within Fox, and only then did I find some clues."
Melissa sat on the sofa: “Speak.”
Barack continued, "A few months ago, Gretchen received a courier. On that day, she found Harley to arrange a job. The specific content is unknown, but Harley has rarely appeared in the Fox Television Center since then. Since then, Harley should have been investigating the Super Star Training School."
Melissa asked the key question: "Where did you send the package?"
Barack said: "We checked the delivery records of Gretchen in the past few months in FedEx and the US Postal Service and found a matching time from Las Vegas, but I sent someone to check it, and it was a very remote mailbox, so there was no way to check it."
It was normal that nothing could be found, and Melissa was not surprised. She thought about it and asked, "Who is the biggest beneficiary of this incident?"
Barack didn't even have to think about it and gave an answer directly: "Arnold Schwarzenegger."
Without this unexpected incident, the outcome of the recall election would be hard to predict, after all, California has always been deep blue.
Barack quickly advised: "We can't do this to a governor."
"Wait until the situation calms down a bit," Melissa said, "and teach Gretchen and Harley a lesson."
She felt upset.
Akerman Pictures went bankrupt, the film and television copyrights were transferred at low prices, cash compensation was given to the victims, the beach club was burned down, the superstar training school was closed, and there were also expenses for managing the situation.
In this incident, the Ackerman family suffered direct losses of more than 8000 million US dollars.
Melissa did not lose her mind. Considering the Fox TV network, she specifically reminded: "Accident, understand? No physical harm, but make them unforgettable for life."
Barack took note.
Also in Santa Monica, on the Twitter building on Ocean Parkway.
Hawke looked at the various notices in the newspaper. With the election of the new governor, various incidents gradually subsided, and some unsolved cases also had official results.
The red and blue teams finally reached a tacit understanding and saved each other's face.
Hawke was mentally prepared for all this and was not disappointed at all.
The Ackerman family paid a considerable business price for this.
Bro Derek, one of the culprits, died.
His opponent was weakened, and he was getting stronger step by step.
There will always be a day when the power between the two sides will be completely reversed.
Hawke has been working quietly for a year and a half and doesn’t mind continuing to work hard.
Another point is that the Ackerman family has exposed their weaknesses.
Thinking back to an island in his previous life, Hawke was basically certain that the Ackerman family would not stop with events like the Superstar School, but would only continue to satisfy the perverted madness of some people.
Schwarzenegger's appointment as governor is better than the previous situation.
Hawke recalled carefully and it seemed that Schwarzenegger was re-elected for one term and was forced to step down after 2010.
The phone rang at this time. It was Brian calling.
Hawke answered.
Brian said: "You are in the office? Okay, come over in half an hour, there is super good news." (End of this chapter)
