The rapid developnt of Novara District.
Also led to a rapid increase in land value.
Anyone with a bit of foresight could see that the future developnt of Novara District was boundless.
Countless real estate developers flocked in, wanting to take a share from the city's developnt.
Donal Lewis gradually discovered that there was more or less fraud in many of the land auctions.
And there were also nurous issues in the selection and appointnt of cadres.
Given such a situation, Donal Lewis had to investigate.
No investigation, no problem.
But upon investigation, he was shocked.
All evidence pointed to Kelton Levin.
Subsequently.
He also received many complaints in secret.
The subjects of these complaints were also Kelton Levin.
Thinking about the newly established team, unable to withstand the impact of large-scale anti-corruption asures.
Donal Lewis had a good talk with Kelton Levin, but unexpectedly, Kelton Levin not only did not admit his actions but said that Donal Lewis was framing him.
Thus, a seed of contradiction was planted between the two.
In the next one to two years of work.
The conflicts between the two beca more frequent.
And Kelton Levin's ans of amassing wealth beca increasingly excessive.
Donal Lewis finally couldn't bear it anymore and sent a complaint letter to the State Commission for Discipline Inspection.
The complaint letter was like a stone dropped into the sea, never to be heard from again.
After waiting for nearly two months, instead of an investigation into Kelton Levin, he received his own transfer notice.
He was transferred from the position of District Chief of Novara District to serve as County Committee Secretary of Stillwater County.
Shortly after he was transferred.
Kelton Levin was also promoted to Executive Vice Mayor of Ardmore City.
Although the two were now in different places, Kelton Levin's revenge on Donal Lewis never ceased.
Speaking of this.
Donal Lewis sighed and said, "When they transferred to Stillwater County initially, Kelton Levin's intent was also to use Dylan Tate to suppress . In Ardmore City, who doesn't know about Dylan Tate's cunning thods?"
"To others, it seed like I, Donal Lewis, had been promoted, but to , all my hard work had been ruined by them. During that ti, I was truly disheartened, really wanted to resign."
Saying this.
He looked at Dirk Carter and said, "In your eyes, Dylan Tate has always been suppressing . Whatever I brought up had to go through his approval. Sotis, he would even scold openly at the standing committee etings. These were actually acts we staged together."
Upon hearing this.
Dirk Carter understood seventy percent of it.
He said, "Dylan Tate did this to prevent Kelton Levin from giving you more trouble, right?"
Donal Lewis nodded.
He said, "Yes, many of the matters were actually discussed privately between us, then we would put on a show to implent the policies. Over the years, Kelton Levin's power has grown more and more significant. Over a year ago, he was even promoted to Mayor. If he decided to target , he could easily do so. But if he saw that I was not doing well in Stillwater County, he would be more willing to leave here."
This result.
Was sothing Dirk Carter didn't expect initially.
After all, the discord between Donal Lewis and Dylan Tate turned out to be just a Blinding Technique.
This ti, Dirk Carter believed it.
Because when Donal Lewis said these words, his eyes were moist with tears.
He understood very well.
People who reach such high positions usually have excellent acting skills, but Donal Lewis's genuine expression was undeniable.
Moreover, he trusted Caroline Lynch very much.
"So what happened that night when Dylan Tate had a drink with you?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Donal Lewis took a deep breath.
He said, "Dylan Tate, in fact, doesn't have many friends. You know this. Sotis when he's upset, he cos to my house for a drink during dinner. He did the sa that day, but I didn't know why he was upset that day. He didn't ntion it while drinking, but I could tell that he wasn't the kind of person who wanted to die."
"Halfway through the drink, around just before 8 o'clock, he received a phone call. His expression changed imdiately and beca very tense. After the call, he told he had to handle a matter and left quickly."
The ti Dirk Carter t with Dylan Tate was around 8:30.
This ans Dylan Tate should have gone ho after leaving his house, picked up the black briefcase, and then t with Dirk Carter. The timing was perfectly adequate.
"Do you know who made that call?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Donal Lewis nodded and said, "It's precisely because I know who made the call that I've been searching for that missing mobile phone."
"Who was it?"
"Sherman Sumrs!"
Upon hearing that na.
Dirk Carter's heart skipped a beat.
He looked sharply at Donal Lewis.
Donal Lewis seed to see through his thoughts and said, "I know what you're thinking. The investigation team announced his call records, and there was no record of a call with Sherman Sumrs on the day he died, right?"
"Yes."
Dirk Carter nodded.
Donal Lewis nodded and said, "I also saw the call records as soon as they were announced, and I didn't see any call records with Sherman Sumrs either, so I found it strange. I had a few people looking into Dylan Tate's movents that day, and surveillance near Bridlewood River captured him around 9:30, so I sent soone to search Bridlewood River. Just a few days ago, I finally got this mobile phone."
Next.
He took out a piece of paper from his pocket.
He said, "I went to the provincial capital and found an expert who restored the call records on the phone. I printed the list out; have a look."
Dirk Carter's hands began to tremble slightly.
After he opened that piece of paper.
Sure enough, at 7:52, he saw the call record with Sherman Sumrs, lasting less than a minute. Then at 8:26 was his call with himself.
"But why are there no call records with the telecommunications company? Could it have been deleted? Does Sherman Sumrs have that much influence?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Donal Lewis nodded and said, "I've been considering this too. Generally speaking, such call records would be stored in telecommunications facilities at the city level or above. To delete records, a higher-level authority would have to give the orders, aning—"
"aning this matter involves higher-level people at the city level or above, right?"
Dirk Carter cut in.
Donal Lewis nodded.
Caroline Lynch also nodded.
At that mont, Dirk Carter felt as if soone had struck him hard on the head, leaving him dizzy.
All along, he was only convinced that there were big issues with Dylan Tate's death; he didn't believe it was suicide.
That was his suspicion, his conjecture.
But now, Donal Lewis's words told him that Dylan Tate definitely didn't commit suicide. There was an even bigger secret behind his death.
And this secret was also related to Sherman Sumrs.
"Under the current circumstances, Sherman Sumrs has been developing and consolidating his network. After Dylan Tate's death, he must have built ties with Kelton Levin. With Kelton Levin's support, his power will soon grow exponentially. He won't cover for like Dylan Tate did; he will definitely corner . That's why I need you by my side, to help gain a foothold in Stillwater County."
Up to this point.
Only then did Donal Lewis reveal the most important reason for seeking Dirk Carter's help.
"? Do I have that ability?" Dirk Carter asked.
Donal Lewis smiled.
He said, "I didn't originally know if you had that ability, but Adair yer, Shane Vincent, and Tristan Reid have all suffered losses at your hands. If you now tell you don't have that capability, I wouldn't believe it."
