Chapter 843 -422: Turmoil in New York State_2
“My God, am I seeing this right? The Governor of New York State has actually been taken away for investigation by the Internal Revenue Service?”
“I heard some rumors that Governor Kingsley was very dissatisfied with the tax investigations in the officialdom of New York State that David was carrying out, and that’s the reason why Inspector David made his move on him, right?”
“Oh my, it seems David has really come to New York State with an unstoppable force, ready to eliminate anyone in his way. The show that’s about to unfold will be even more spectacular…”
In recent times, David had been taking away the Mayor of New York City, the Police Chief, and various high-ranking officials one after the other, which left many people astonished.
But now that even someone of the Governor’s rank had been taken away, it naturally shocked countless people to the core.
However, before the people of America could react to all this, the press conference held by Pezela, Conrad, and Benson had already captured a lot of attention.
The general public initially thought
that these three congressional candidates wanted to make a statement of protest after seeing Derick and Stevenson being taken away.
But the content of the press conference took everyone by surprise.
Because the main message was simple.
They were going to withdraw from this midterm election and stop running for Congress.
New York State, with its 31 seats in the House of Representatives, and these three candidates clearly had a significant advantage and were almost certain to secure a seat each, but suddenly they dropped out at this critical moment.
This aroused suspicion and sparked all kinds of heated discussions.
“Are these three candidates panicking after seeing Stevenson and Governor Derick being taken away by the Internal Revenue Service?”
“No, they definitely aren’t apologizing out of panic. It must be something that Inspector David threatened or coerced them into doing, so they had to make it public like this.”
“Our Inspector David has really turned New York State upside down recently… His methods are too ruthless…”
While the nation was abuzz with discussion, the White House, with Payden receiving the news, was discussing it with his Chief of Staff Wylder.
“What on earth does David want to do? After all, New York is the financial center of the world, and his actions will cause a lot of trouble.”
Payden was clearly dissatisfied with David’s recent actions and his words were filled with a tone of accusation.
“Yes, sir, but as you know, that guy is like a wild horse that’s broken free, determined to smash the foundations of the Freemasonry Group. We probably won’t be able to dissuade him.”
“Damn it…”
Payden cursed, then fell into thought for a moment before saying, “This can’t go on any longer. As I’ve said before, with New York being the financial center of the world, continuing like this will only put more international pressure on us. Go personally to the Internal Revenue Service, have a talk with Obadiah, and then to New York, have a word with David, and tell him to dial it back!”

“Very well, sir…”
Wylder immediately left the White House and headed towards the direction of the Internal Revenue Service.
Apart from the White House, at this very moment, the Freemasonry, the Illuminati, the Ansa Group, and various states were discussing the matter.
Meanwhile, David’s team had already returned to the Manhattan Branch.
“What’s going on, Chief Inspector David? How come you’ve brought back Governor Derick as well!?”
Upon seeing David and the others return, Nehem and the weary Goldwin, the Chief of New York State’s Internal Revenue Service, hurried up to them.
While David held a high position in the Internal Revenue Service and had gained enormous prestige nationwide, taking away a Governor—and the Governor of the financial center of the world at that—was no joke.
At the least, it would cause a state-wide upheaval, and at worst, it could cause the administrative system of the entire state to become paralyzed.
That might not bother the higher-ups at headquarters, but for those who had to keep working in that state, this concern was not to be taken lightly.
“Relax, Chief Goldwin, I’ve had this planned out for a long time; there’s nothing to worry about.”
David replied calmly.
“Chief Inspector David, there’s something I must remind you,” New York is not like other states; this is the stronghold of Freemasonry. They control every industry and aspect of the state, and even many civilians are on their side. This is something to be cautious of…”
“I understand.”
David had indeed garnered a lot of public support throughout America, but if one were to compare which of the 50 states’ ordinary citizens supported him the least, New York State would certainly be high on that list.
Because, as Goldwin said, New York State is after all Freemasonry’s territory. They have been deeply rooted here for many years, controlling various industries that benefit the ordinary citizens, who naturally tend to side with the Freemasonry Group.
“Since you understand, I won’t say more. I’m going to work on the state government’s side, ensuring that the state government is operating normally…”
“Protest, protest!”
“Free Governor Derick! Free, free Governor Derick!”
“Release him, release him!”
Goldwin hadn’t even finished speaking when suddenly a deafening chorus of protest erupted from outside the door.
“Trouble, Chief Inspector, the Chief… There’s a huge crowd of protestors outside, and they’re demanding an explanation for our taking Governor Derick. We can’t hold them back!”
At this, an Inspector from the Internal Revenue Service rushed in, his face etched with distress.
Nehem and Goldwin’s lips twitched, and they turned to look at David.
A few days earlier, when David had taken Kang Gua, a large crowd had also come to protest, but they eventually retreated under the influence of David’s personal charisma.
But this time, they had brought back the Governor of New York State, not on the same level as a police chief like Kang Gua. This time, fearing that even if David came forward to plead, it would be very hard to appease the demonstrators.
“Alright, then I’ll go out and say a few words!”
David knew he couldn’t avoid it anymore and stepped forward to go out.
What a sight!
The crowd at the doorway was dense, a few times larger than the one that had come to protest for Kang Gua just a few days before.
And people were still steadily pouring in from all sides.
Without a doubt, many in the large protesting crowd weren’t just there for Derick; many were likely directed by Freemasonry to come here!
“Chief Inspector David, taking away our mayor and police chief is one thing, but now you’ve even taken our beloved Governor. You owe us a reasonable explanation!”
“Why does the IRS have the right to arrest our Governor? Release him immediately!”
“Release him, release him!!!”
“…”
As soon as they saw David, the main culprit, come out, the crowd grew even more agitated.
“Let me talk if you want an explanation, now that I’m out here, at least let me say a couple of words?”
“Alright, everyone stop for a moment, let’s see what he has to say!”
A black man who seemed to be one of the organizers stepped forward, arms spread to call for calm.
And after his call, the agitated crowd indeed quieted down, and the protestations stopped.
“The IRS doesn’t summon people at random, especially a Governor. And now that we’ve summoned Governor Derick, it’s naturally because he’s implicated in some tax issues.”
“Bullshit, our Governor Derick is law-abiding; how could he possibly be evading taxes!”
“That’s right, we know the character of Governor Derick; otherwise, we wouldn’t have elected him!”
“Governor Derick’s contributions to New York State are well-recognized. Let alone evading taxes, even if he did, the IRS shouldn’t treat him like this!”
“…”
