A Bumpy Road to Power

"I definitely will. Those people who caused Ah Chen's death, I won't let a single one go."

Dirk Carter said firmly.

Upon hearing this.

Clara Carter got up from Dirk Carter's body.

Her eyes were determined as she said, "Alright, with your words, I think Ah Chen in the underworld would also find comfort. What should we do next?"

Dirk Carter pondered for a moment.

Then he said, "In two days, Rasco Shaw will officially take office, and what he will do next will surely involve tampering with the matter of Terrence Hall's death. Therefore, within these two days, I have to find out the cause of Terrence Hall's death."

"Only two days, is that enough?"

Clara Carter asked worriedly.

"Proactively investigating it won't be possible time-wise. Plus, with a new police chief in place, it's impossible to start from that angle. So, there's only one way, and that's to set a trap."

"Set a trap? How do we do that?"

Clara Carter asked.

Dirk Carter paused before saying, "A sweet temptation, a hero's downfall. This trick works every time."

"So you're planning to use a woman to seduce him into making a mistake?"

Clara Carter asked.

Dirk Carter sneered and said, "Braddock Yarbrough is not stupid. He should know the difference between personal conduct issues and murder, so this time, we're going for his life directly..."

"Kidnapping a local police station director is not an easy task."

Clara Carter said with a deep look in her eyes.

Dirk Carter nodded and said, "So, this time, I'm planning to have Aurora give us a hand..."

...

Since Terrence Hall's death.

Braddock Yarbrough's life has become much simpler.

To and fro between two places.

He went to work at dawn and was off work before dark.

Perhaps out of safety considerations.

Lately, Braddock Yarbrough has been carrying a gun.

He also sent his wife and children to the countryside and had two brothers live with him.

Looking from this angle, Braddock Yarbrough appears highly suspicious.

Of course, this also increases the difficulty for Dirk Carter to act against him.

Plus, the security in Braddock Yarbrough's neighborhood is very tight, with surveillance everywhere, making it absolutely impossible to silently abduct him from his home.

At 9 PM.

Braddock Yarbrough and his two brothers were playing cards in the living room.

As the three were enjoying the game.

The doorbell suddenly rang.

All three were startled almost simultaneously.

Braddock Yarbrough said to a crew-cut guy, "Go take a look."

The crew-cut stood up, approached the door, looked through the peephole, and was stunned.

"Who is it?"

Braddock Yarbrough asked.

The crew-cut guy turned around with a grin and said, "A beautiful woman."

"A beautiful woman? Where's she from?"

Braddock Yarbrough quickly stood up and looked through the peephole, and indeed there was a beautiful woman standing at the door.

The woman's hair was disheveled.

She wore a sheer silk nightgown.

Judging by the rise at the chest, the two bunnies were not small.

More intriguing was that the slight protrusions were conspicuous, indicating she wasn't wearing any underwear.

The nightgown was not very long.

The sight of those long, fair legs was irresistible.

Without further ado.

Braddock Yarbrough opened the door.

"Miss, do you need something?"

Braddock Yarbrough asked.

The beautiful woman at the door looked flustered.

She said to Braddock Yarbrough, "Sir, I just moved into the apartment across from you, and while I was taking out the trash, I forgot my keys and locked myself out. Could I possibly climb over from your balcony?"

Indeed.

The two units' balconies were not far apart, only about a meter away.

Braddock Yarbrough knew this.

He thought for a moment and asked, "You just moved in? How come I haven't seen you before?"

The woman explained, "I only moved in today. Otherwise, I wouldn't have made such a rookie mistake."

"Brother Shan, she's just a woman, what is there to be afraid of?"

Braddock Yarbrough's brother, not a good guy either, had been itching upon seeing such a beautiful woman.

Of course.

Braddock Yarbrough felt the same.

Beautiful women always tend to lower one's guard.

After sizing her up and ensuring there was no one else on the staircase by the door, he stepped aside and said, "Come on in."

The woman walked through the door.

And headed towards the balcony.

For a woman, jumping over from a balcony might be a bit challenging.

However, Braddock Yarbrough did not intend to help; he wanted to see if she had any ulterior motives.

After all, they lived on the fifth floor.

When the woman reached the balcony, she didn't hesitate; she held onto the wall and shakily stood up. The distance might not be difficult to jump, but the height made it tough.

At this moment, a gentle breeze blew through.

The hem of the woman's nightgown was lifted.

Braddock Yarbrough's eyes lit up.

He realized that not only was she not wearing a bra, but she also wore no panties. A glimpse of the wilderness only made certain restless elements inside him start to stir.

"Miss, how about I help you?"

Braddock Yarbrough offered eagerly when he saw the woman hesitating.

The woman heard this and repeatedly expressed her gratitude.

Without further ado, Braddock Yarbrough climbed onto the balcony, leaped across, and landed on the other side, then opened the balcony door to enter the apartment.

Once inside, all that remained was to unlock the main door.

The other two also accompanied the woman to the door.

Not even a minute later.

The opposite door indeed opened.

The woman smoothly walked inside.

Turning around, she said to the two, "Gentlemen, why don't you come in for a visit?"

Those two naturally didn't refuse.

They followed in, front and back.

As soon as they stepped in, they felt something cold on their necks, with an ominous warning from behind: "Don't move; if you move, I'll kill you both."

The duo dared not move an inch.

Just about to ask what was going on.

Black hoods covered their heads, plunging them into darkness.

Following that.

The two were quickly subdued, their mouths stuffed with towels, and their arms and legs bound, all with professional precision.

So, what about Braddock Yarbrough now?

He was also captured.

A hood over his head, he was tied to a chair.

However, unlike the other two, his mouth wasn't gagged.

"Let me go, let me go, do you know who I am? I'm the local police chief. Do you dare kidnap me, aren't you afraid of dying..."

Braddock Yarbrough struggled continuously.

But the ropes were tied tightly, and no matter how hard he resisted, it was futile.

Suddenly.

Footsteps sounded.

They came to a halt right beside him.

Braddock Yarbrough began to feel scared.

Trembling, he asked, "Who are you? What do you want? Let me go, please let me go..."

With a sudden clink.

The hood was abruptly removed.

Just as Braddock Yarbrough was about to burst into curses.

The sight in front of him left him momentarily dumbstruck.
