I, Doctor in the US-Chapter 437 - 429: Goodbye Uchida!
The court session was about to start, and then the witness died.
This is a common plot in many movies.
Thinking back, so many movies have already been made.
It fully indicates what the situation is like in the real world.
The business of killing witnesses is commonplace in the United States.
Since that's the case, there are, of course, ways to respond.
The FBI isn't some foolish institution; they're considered elite police.
They're regarded as very strong worldwide.
Naturally, they have many strategies to get witnesses to court.
Among them is the safety house.
Right, anyone who watches movies would know.
But reportedly, Ira died in the safety house.
This matter is quite obvious; anyone with a bit of sense should know there's an insider threat in the police force.
An FBI insider?
This realization is just devastating.
Especially for Americans.
And right now, McMahon is utterly devastated.
He looks like a homeless person on the street.
The guy is sitting on the floor of his bedroom at home.
His home is quite nice, plus, he seemed to have a happy family.
Well, he's divorced, and his wife left with the kids.
Actually, a lot of FBI agents are like this, with issues in marriage.
This situation is actually quite strange.
For example, police actually have high salaries in the United States.
Even though we joke that American police are just beefy security guards, even these beefy security guards earn high salaries.
Because in the United States, being a cop is a high-risk occupation.
This is true, given they almost live amid a hail of bullets every day.
No joke, American police conduct themselves such that, if the other person is driving and after being forced to stop, the driver doesn't show their hands, the police will choose to shoot.
The United States is like this: 300 million people but 330 million guns.
An average of one gun per person. If someone doesn't show their hands, how do you know if they'll pull out a driver's license or a Glock from their pocket?
So, while American police are criticized by many, they have indeed shot many innocents.
But American police are indeed working a high-risk job.
High-risk jobs mean high pay.
This is reasonable.
Furthermore, American police have many benefits, like free meals at places like Dunkin' Donuts; actually, other restaurants offer similar services.
Some restaurants in America wouldn't even stop police from dining for free. Over 80% of restaurants allow it.
Especially Chinese restaurants operated by Chinese people.
So, with a high salary and free meals, we can see their big bellies.
Thus, they are part of the wealthy class.
They naturally find partners easily and can marry.
However, ordinary police are pretty decent; their divorce rate isn't high.
But the FBI is different; the FBI is certainly wealthier than ordinary police, with better benefits.
If you look at what they wear on duty, it's really not cheap.
FBI agents are wealthier and can marry better women.
But trouble comes.
Better women, of course, have higher demands.
And FBI agents, being very busy with investigations... well…
The outcome is apparent.
Fortunately, although his family is broken, it doesn't matter much; generally, FBI agents can afford alimony.
McMahon, a mature FBI agent, is in this kind of situation.
With kids, whose mother took them away.
Well… isn't that right!
Actually, McMahon already had plans to spend the rest of his life with Ira.
Not concerned about Allen's past?
This… in the United States, it's really not a concern; if it were, you probably couldn't find a woman.
Moreover, McMahon is divorced too.
Plus, Ira is very beautiful, with a great figure, that…
Yes, being with Ira was simply an Eye-Opening Experience for McMahon.
Truly introduced him to things he hadn't encountered before.
He gained a lot of insight.
In such a way, the past was all hurtful.
McMahon really wanted to help Ira, to make her his wife.
For them to accompany each other until the end.
Unexpectedly, he never saw it coming.
Allen died just like that.
Killed in the safety house.
McMahon later went to see it, according to the report.
The person in charge of the safety house was also seriously injured.
What can you do?
Even if you understand that it's likely there's an insider in the FBI.
What can McMahon do about it?
He's just an FBI agent.
The internal investigation, or perhaps... McMahon isn't a fool.
He has a vague suspicion that there might be bigger issues within the FBI.
Perhaps some high-ranking official is deeply entangled in the Apostle case.
In fact, from the start of the investigation,
McMahon realized the enemies he and Henry were up against were extremely powerful.
Ordinary people simply couldn't accomplish these things.
However, they had a bit of comfort.
That is, perhaps what they were investigating was just the tip of the iceberg.
Their 'tip of the iceberg' statement was quite special.
Meaning, they hoped they were only looking at the tip of the iceberg.
If it's just this 'tip,' then they could investigate.
However, if the investigation was of the whole 'iceberg,'
then they simply didn't have the capacity to do it.
Of course, this was just them being self-aware.
They were merely 'hoping.'
If it truly is an iceberg...anyway, it's already started, hasn't it?
