The next day, as soon as Luke arrived at the detective bureau, Dustin called him into the conference room.

There were more than a dozen detectives sitting inside, and some information had been posted on a large white board, with some locations and names written on it.

Luke and Selina looked at each other and sat down silently.

There were some photos on the big white board that they were more familiar with than any of the detectives present.

That was the crime scene in Damico's lair.

Yesterday, Luke and Damon, father and daughter, confronted fifty or sixty gangsters head-on. Some of the gangsters even used grenades. This certainly did not escape the police's notice.

Damico was dead, and all the gangsters in the building were killed. The gangsters who went to the warehouse did not have time to return to clean up the mess, and the scene was taken under control by the police.

NYPD has long blacklisted Frank D'Amico, the drug dealer.

But Frank is not that stupid. He has been selling his banned drugs honestly. It is hard to say how many bad things he has done in private, but he has not done anything to undermine the stability of New York, so he has not been targeted.

After all, the sale of illegal drugs does not affect the prosperity and stability of New York.

In comparison, the FBI and DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) are more concerned about the Damico gang.

But there was too much noise in the building where Damico lived last night, so the police went to check and found a lot of bodies inside, including Frank Damico himself and his son.

There were also a large number of weapons, a small amount of illegal drugs and more importantly, a large number of account books in the den, which made the police feel like they had found a treasure.

When Luke cleaned the safe, he did not take the account books away. He just scanned a few important ones and put them all back into the safe, leaving some benefits for his colleagues who were cleaning the floor.

From the account books, NYPD can follow the clues and find many of the subordinates who have transactions with the D'Amico gang without spending too much effort.

Now, there are several pieces of information on the whiteboard that clearly point to the downstream gangs involved in the account book.

Dustin began to explain the case and then arranged the tasks.

As expected, Dustin explicitly requested that everyone just pay attention to the firefight at Damico's lair last night and there was no rush.

Everyone's action target these days is several offline gangs, trying to capture their important leaders in one fell swoop.

Normally NYPD wouldn't make a big fuss, but now that the evidence of the crime has been handed to them, they would be a fool not to take the opportunity to gain some credit.

As for political achievements, the bigwigs in NYPD and the New York City Council still need some, otherwise how can they fool the people into voting for them.

After listening to the mission, Luke and the other man left the police station and started their official work for the day.

At the same time, Nelson-Murdoch Law Office in Clinton welcomed two guests who were not clients early in the morning.

In the office, looking at the two men and women in formal business suits, Fudge asked, "What business do you two have that brings you to our office?"

He knew at first glance that the man was his colleague, but the woman's temperament was not similar. She looked more like a clerk doing administrative work.

Thinking back to the property management lady who yelled yesterday that she wanted to sue them, Fudge and Matt's expressions became a little subtle.

Isn't it just a little management fee? Why really call a lawyer? That amount is not enough to pay the lawyer's fee. Both of them couldn't help but wonder.

The man took out a business card, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Fudge. "I am Attorney Allen Shaw. Today, I am entrusted by the Poverty and Disabled Aid Foundation to discuss with your firm about a long-term charitable donation. This Ms. Ella Dray is the director of the Poverty and Disabled Aid Foundation. She will communicate with you on all matters related to this charitable donation in the future."

Fudge and Matt were both a little stunned: "Charity donation?"

Charitable donations certainly require lawyers to complete a lot of legal procedures, but isn’t the colleague opposite already doing that

Alan then took out a large stack of documents and explained them to his two colleagues.

However, although Lawyer Allen had a calm expression on his face, he was actually very jealous of his two young colleagues.

He does not envy the fact that these two people can help the poor and disabled and apply for loans from the foundation.

Alan was not so bad as to cheat the poor out of their life-saving money. What he was jealous of was another separate donation agreement.

The conversation between the two sides did not last long.

This newly established foundation for aiding the poor and disabled received a total of 2.3 million in charitable donations this time.

Fudge and Matt can only help the beneficiaries submit applications to the foundation, and the rest of the work is still done by the foundation.

Among the documents Allen took out, the only one that really required Fudge and the other to sign was a separate donation agreement.

As long as Nelson Murdoch continues to provide legal aid to the poor and needy, the foundation will donate $50,000 per month to the firm for operating expenses for one year.

This is what makes Lawyer Allen most jealous.

This type of donation agreement basically sets out requirements for the law firm, such as how many poor groups must be provided with legal aid each year, to avoid taking the money without doing anything, or doing less work.

However, this donation agreement does not contain any such troublesome restrictive clauses, and only requires that the funds be used for the operation of the law firm.

As long as Fudge and Matt are willing, they can use this money to pay themselves monthly salaries, and it can also be counted as the operating costs of the firm. At most, it is just too ugly.

If it were lawyer Allen, he would use the money to pay for all the expenses of the firm, and put the profits from the lawsuit into his own pocket, which would also help his career get off to a fast start.

Considering the size of the Nielsen-Murdoch firm, the $600,000 in donations this year would be enough to sustain them for several years.

With a few years of start-up time, it will naturally be possible to come to a clear conclusion as to whether this firm can continue to operate.

Using other people's money to start a business without any subsequent troubles is what countless young people dream of.

But these two young and naive lawyers who were just starting out really encountered such a good thing.

What’s even more depressing is that Alan came here to give money to others.

Thinking back to half a year ago when he was implicated and fired from his previous law firm, which forced him to leave Los Angeles and come to New York, Lawyer Allen could only sigh: Life is so damn unfair!

But no matter how many times the thought of American mmp crossed his mind, in the end he could only smile and say goodbye to the two young lawyers.

After seeing off Attorney Allen and Director Ella, the three veterans of the firm hid in the lawyer's office again.

Karen looked at the two men with a smile on her face. "Okay, who did this? They unexpectedly came up with a big surprise without saying anything. Yesterday they said they were looking for a big client, but today they found a charity donation, and there were no strings attached."

A big client willing to pay a high price would mean a big trouble in the lawsuit, but the donation would obviously be trouble-free.

Hearing this, Fudge subconsciously looked at Matt, but Matt shook his head directly: "Not me, I don't know such a rich man."
