Chapter 71: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
Mia's home, which was also Dominic's home, was designed by Mia herself.
It not only offered aesthetic pleasure but, more importantly, provided comfortable living close to nature.
The external space layout had a somewhat enclosed feel, embodying the advantage of being small yet exquisite.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Xiao Jinmao Brian stood at Mia's doorstep and knocked on the door.
Mia happily opened the door, but her face immediately turned cold when she saw Brian: "What are you doing here?"
Brian, dressed in a suit and tie, looked very serious.
He was silent for a moment, then nodded emphatically.
Without giving Brian a pleasant look, Mia turned and walked into the room, but she didn't close the door, making her meaning very clear.
The matter between them had not yet been resolved because Brian, as an undercover Agent, had messed with Mia's older brother.
The two of them still wavered on the edge of love and not love, coming and going with ease.
Tsk, tsk!
Any love that is a matter of life and death is undoubtedly...
Love, if you like someone, be together; if not, just break up.
Dragging it out is just asking for trouble.
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Brian's mouth as he walked into Mia's home.
If it wasn't for true affection, who would want to be a simp?
"What are you looking for me for?" Mia said expressionlessly.
"I'm not here to talk about Dom today," Brian said, composing himself and speaking solemnly, "I came to ask you for information about your childhood friend, Mo Fei."
"Mo Fei?" Mia looked at Brian in confusion: "Why are you asking about him?"
"According to the information our FBI has, he may have a very close relationship with Braga, a very powerful drug lord on the West Blue, and he himself might even be Braga," Brian said with a grave expression.
"What did you say?!" Mia exclaimed in surprise, looking at Brian in disbelief: "You must be mistaken, right?
Although Mo Fei usually acts frivolously, loves pranks, changes girlfriends every few days, and might even go out to seduce other people's wives, he wouldn't go as far as to become a drug lord, would he?"
"We are only suspicious for now, but that doesn't mean we have no evidence at all," Brian stated the facts and reasoned.
"Braga is a ruthless drug lord who appeared in New York two years ago.
He transported more drugs than Escobar did in ten years.
Mo Fei's parents died two years ago, so it's very possible that he developed some kind of twisted psychological problem due to their deaths."
"Braga is very mysterious.
For two years, we dispatched three of our most elite Agents, but besides body bags, we obtained no information about him—no photos, no fingerprints, we don't even know his date of birth!
Aside from his deputy, Raymond Campos, Braga could theoretically be anyone.
Mo Fei is actually also a very mysterious person.
We found that many times his experiences had blanks, as if they were directly erased by someone.
If he is Braga, then it can be explained clearly."
"The Braga group has a third-in-command, a retired Mossad Agent named Ji Ze'er.
Mo Fei has been in frequent contact with her since five years ago, and even now, they contact each other at least once every two months.
According to our latest investigation results, Braga actually has a wife named Emily, and Mo Fei has maintained a lover relationship with her since two years ago…"
"Mo Fei, he is a Doctor, if he were to manufacture drugs…"
"…"
Xiao Jinmao Brian laid out a pile of documents, detailing a case-by-case comparison analysis of Mo Fei and Braga.
The FBI ultimately concluded that Mo Fei has a 70% chance of being Braga, who remotely controls the drug cartel.
And even for criminal suspects, before the final judgment by a Judge, they are only 99% likely to be criminals.
70% is a considerably dangerous number, definitely placing him on the FBI's list of key persons of interest.
If Mo Fei were to see this comparison analysis document, he would probably suddenly realize how awesome he is—having an alter ego named Braga!
Actually, Braga himself was clever; he put on an alter ego, Raymond Campos, who was the group's second-in-command, and immediately cleared himself of the suspicion of being Braga.
And Mo Fei, also being clever, swept up all the women around Braga, which is why the FBI targeted him.
Mia's mind was in a mess; she simply couldn't accept that the goofy Mo Fei was actually a ruthless drug lord!
Mo Fei's character had completely collapsed!
At Brian's earnest request, Mia briefly shared some information about Mo Fei, but didn't reveal too much.
Aside from Mo Fei pursuing her and her publicly exposing his love letters, they actually played very well together as children and he had never harmed her or her family.
Even if Mo Fei really was a drug lord, she couldn't directly come forward to accuse him.
After Brian left, Mia felt uneasy.
She suddenly recalled the highway shootout from last night; the little girl was clearly Mindy, which meant… no!
Mia took out her phone and started dialing Mo Fei's number: "Mo Fei?"
"Yes, it's me, who is this?"
"Mia!"
"Oh, what's up?"
"Are you… have you been doing something very bad?" Mia was about to ask directly but suddenly realized something and asked in a roundabout way.
"I've always done very bad things, I don't know which one you're referring to?"
"Then let me remind you, I heard that you and Braga…"
"How did you know?!" Before Mia could finish speaking, Mo Fei exclaimed in surprise, glanced at Emily next to him, and said in a panic: "Mia! Listen to me, I beg you, you absolutely must not tell anyone about this!
Although I don't know how you found out, this whole thing is actually a misunderstanding!"
"Mo Fei!" Mia shrieked hysterically: "I'm so disappointed in you.
I can't believe you're dealing drugs.
I advise you to surrender to the NYPD today!"
"No, dealing drugs? When did I…"
"What 'I' What 'I'?! You absolutely must not think of running away immediately before the FBI catches crucial evidence to arrest you!
You absolutely must not think of taking a smuggling ship to leave the United States and then transfer to Russia, Tokyo, Iran, or Kuwait just because you heard some rumors!
Don't let me see you again!
I hate drug dealers like you the most in this life.
If I see you again, I'll blow your brains out with a shotgun in a minute!"
Mia angrily hung up the phone!
Mo Fei listened to the busy signal from his phone, bewildered.
What on earth did Mia want to say?
Did she suddenly call me just to tell me that she knew I had seduced a married woman and that she would be irreconcilable with me?
"Crazy!"
