According to the normal plot.
Kian Holden ambushes Caleb Ford, and Caleb, unable to swallow this, will definitely clash head-on with Kian Holden's men.
Then a large-scale bloodshed occurs.
The city initiates an accountability mechanism.
As the primary responsible person in Stillwater County at the time, Donal Lewis would either be dismissed or demoted. Either way, Donal Lewis would not have a good outcome.
Sherman Summers, who was out on a research inspection, would rush back to Stillwater County immediately to preside over the situation.
Successfully resolving this bloody incident.
Without Donal Lewis obstructing.
And with Kelton Levin's support in the city, it wouldn't be impossible for Sherman Summers to leap a level and directly assume the top position after this incident.
Unfortunately.
This plan was seen through by Dirk Carter from the start.
In collaboration with Caleb Ford, they staged a trap to catch Kian Holden red-handed.
In the end, Kian Holden lost both his men and the bargain while Caleb Ford acquired the Azure Creek Gardens estate at a very low price, making quite a profit.
After this farce.
An awkward twist followed.
Garnett Golding received a call from Kian Holden saying many people had died. He quickly blocked him, intending to distance himself from the matter and then immediately reported this "good news" to Sherman Summers.
Upon receiving the news, Sherman Summers was instantly wide awake, laughed loudly three times, and called Kelton Levin in the city, explaining the entire situation with a hint of taking credit.
Kelton Levin was also overjoyed after hearing the news.
He immediately ordered the city police department to take action overnight, heading to Stillwater County for "cleanup."
The city police department dispatched ten police cars to Stillwater County, but the local police were baffled because they hadn't heard of any bloody incident that night.
The city department wasn't willing to give up.
They rushed to the sales center and the Apex Group building.
Though the place was a mess.
There were no traces of bloodshed whatsoever at the scene.
The city department returned in embarrassment.
Upon learning the news, Kelton Levin was so angry he nearly spat blood and called to furiously scold Sherman Summers.
Sherman Summers was equally bewildered.
He urgently sought to verify the situation.
Only to discover that his plan had completely fallen apart.
If he had wings, he might have flown back to Stillwater County to slap Garnett Golding across the face.
This battle did not shake the heavens or move the spirits, and hardly any of the public knew about it, but for Donal Lewis, it was a heart-stopping crisis he survived.
If not for Dirk Carter's early preparations.
His career as the County Committee's Secretary might have ended.
Three days later.
Sherman Summers got off the train at Ardmore City's train station.
Just as he exited the station, a young man approached and asked, "Excuse me, are you Magistrate Summers?"
Sherman Summers did not recognize the young man in front of him and frowned, asking, "Who are you..."
"Hello, Magistrate Summers, I am the secretary to Vice Chairman Meyer. The leader asked me to pick you up, saying he has something to discuss with you."
Vice Chairman Meyer?
Juwan Meyer!
Hearing this name, Sherman Summers shivered slightly.
He followed the young man into a car.
The car quickly drove away from the train station.
However, instead of heading towards the city, it went further into the countryside.
Sherman Summers didn't ask.
After about half an hour.
The car stopped at the entrance of a hospital.
"Ardmore City's 102 Hospital!"
This hospital in Ardmore City is well-known because it's also known as Ardmore City Psychiatric Hospital.
The young man quickly got out of the car, opened the door for Sherman Summers, and said, "Magistrate Summers, our leader is waiting for you inside."
With his guidance.
Sherman Summers was led to the hospital garden.
At the center, in a pavilion, a middle-aged man was waiting there.
Sherman Summers recognized him; it was Juwan Meyer, the Vice Chairman of the Ardmore City Political Consultative Conference.
"Hello, Vice Chairman Meyer."
Sherman Summers slightly bowed and greeted.
Juwan Meyer nodded, pointed to a stone bench before them, and said, "Sit down."
Juwan Meyer, 58 years old, Vice Chairman of the Ardmore City Political Consultative Conference. At 56, he was transferred from his position as an Ardmore City Committee member, Standing Committee member, and United Front Work Department head.
Sherman Summers just sat down.
Juwan Meyer said slowly, "I've heard about the events in Stillwater County. Was it your doing?"
"Vice Chairman Meyer, you've misunderstood. This matter has nothing to do with me,"
Sherman Summers was startled and quickly defended himself.
Juwan Meyer sneered and said, "I haven't said what the matter is, and you're already saying it wasn't you. Isn't this just a case of the guilty party giving themselves away?"
Sherman Summers was embarrassed.
Just as he was about to defend himself, Juwan Meyer raised his hand and said, "Alright, no need to explain. I've already had people investigate; the incident with Kian Holden was entirely your orchestration. How do you feel now? Isn't it frustrating?"
Since he'd been exposed.
Sherman Summers saw no further need to hide it.
Seeing him silent, Juwan Meyer said, "I've also uncovered another piece of information: the reason Kian Holden's actions failed was all because of one man."
"Who?"
Sherman Summers eagerly asked.
Juwan Meyer said, "Dirk Carter!"
"Dirk Carter? Him? That's impossible."
Sherman Summers clearly didn't believe it.
Juwan Meyer chuckled and said, "Ever since my son was admitted to this hospital, I've had people keeping tabs on Dirk Carter; he foresaw this matter and alerted Caleb Ford."
"Damn it, that ingrate Dirk Carter, see if I don't deal with him!"
Sherman Summers murmured.
Seeing him so upset.
Juwan Meyer said, "In this matter, our goals align."
"What do you mean, Vice Chairman Meyer?"
"Simple, I want to deal with Dirk Carter, and so do you; in this, I will help you."
"How do you plan to help?"
Sherman Summers asked.
Juwan Meyer smiled slightly and said, "I'm old, so the help I can offer is limited. So, how you need me to help, you propose, and I'll handle it. I just want one outcome: for this Dirk Carter to never see the light of day again in his life."
"How is your son doing lately?"
Sherman Summers asked with feigned concern.
Juwan Meyer paused, stood up, and said, "Come with me."
Under Juwan Meyer's guidance.
The two took an elevator to the top floor of the 102 Hospital.
Then, they walked down the deepest part of the corridor.
At the entrance to the ward.
A young man was standing guard.
Seeing Juwan Meyer approach, he opened the door for them.
As soon as the two entered, the sound of singing and dancing birds filled the air.
Soon before their eyes was a huge glass wall.
Juwan Meyer said, "Relax, this is a one-way mirror. We can see inside, but they can't see out."
Looking inside, Sherman Summers saw a lavishly decorated living room, complete with sofa and TV.
In the center of the room, Adair Meyer, wearing hospital clothes and with a cloth over his eyes, seemed to be playing hide and seek.
And his targets were four young women dressed in nurse uniforms, some hiding behind the sofa, some next to the TV; they were all visible to those outside.
"Are you all hiding well? Here I come."
Adair Meyer shouted lecherously and charged towards the sofa.
The first nurse couldn't hide in time and was directly caught by Adair Meyer.
The nurse quickly covered her mouth, as if not to make a sound.
Adair Meyer tore off the nurse's buttons and rubbed her breasts, guessing, "It's Lily, isn't it Lily?"
The girl by the TV giggled, covering her mouth, "No, you guessed wrong."
"Guessed wrong?"
Adair Meyer was momentarily puzzled.
Then, with a rip, he tore open the nurse uniform of the woman he had caught.
He pinned her directly to the sofa.
At this point, Sherman Summers outside realized that the nurse's uniform was actually worn over nothing.
