Chapter 673 The Captain and the Abyss

With Martin's name on the scene, it didn't take long for the FBI helicopter to arrive. A dozen agents in blue coats, led by a middle-aged supervisor, took over the scene.

"I'm Brent. I used to work under Chief Neves." The middle-aged supervisor came over first to greet Martin: "Mr. Davis, are you not injured?"

Martin understood that this person was on Neves' line and said, "I'm fine."

"I'm going to work first." Brent got out of the car and directed his subordinates.

The relevant news quickly spread to Martin. As expected, the firearms held by these three people were all black guns.

A large amount of drugs and several detonators were found in the leading Mexican's backpack.

Other explosives were found in the pickup truck they drove in.

Hearing this, even Martin felt scared for a while, and then angry again.

Life safety is seriously threatened!

Combined with the footage captured by the RV's peripheral surveillance equipment, it was natural that Martin, Bruce and others were acting in legitimate defense.

The other party also held a gun and had explosives in his bag. He repeatedly threatened him verbally and even took the lead in pulling out a gun. There was no issue of excessive defense.

Ridley Scott asked his assistants to report to many organizations, including the Directors Guild and the Screen Actors Guild, in accordance with Hollywood's internal tacit regulations, and the crew would be temporarily suspended.

At least we won't be able to shoot tomorrow.

This incident not only threatened Martin's personal safety, but also caused the crew to stop work, which meant economic losses that could reach millions of dollars.

The crew had already notified producer Louise, who rushed over by helicopter overnight.

In Martin's RV, the three major crew members gathered together.

Louise looked at Martin carefully, made sure he was not injured, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ridley said directly to Louise: "If production is stopped for two days, the cost of location, vehicle rental and personnel wages alone will be an extra $100 million."

He was very angry: "I will use all means to put pressure on the FBI. No matter who instigates them, they must be investigated to the end!"

Louise pushed up her black-rimmed glasses: "Don't worry, this matter won't end here."

Martin's attitude was very simple: "If it were an ordinary person, he might have been shot to death randomly."

The three people have the same position and attitude.

It didn't take long for Bruce to get new news.

Brent suddenly interrogated the injured Sanchez. During the interrogation, Sanchez kept yelling at Johnny Depp, saying that he wanted to take advantage of others.

When Sanchez saw the FBI, he knew that he was going to be in bad luck. Those things in the past might keep him in prison for decades. He confessed everything and it also led to Johnny Depp.

The thing itself was not complicated, Brent then found Martin and Louise.

He told what happened in detail: "Johnny Depp's inventory ran out, and his playmates contacted Sanchez because of the high price and delivery fee. They came to deliver the goods, thinking that Depp and his playmates In this car..."

"Johnny Depp?" Martin thought for a moment and said, "In other words, Depp recruited these drug dealers and almost killed me and my manager!"

It was hard for Brent to accept this. His intention to cause trouble was too obvious.

Even if Depp died and left the solar system, Martin would not care, but the bad things Depp did threatened his personal safety.

He likes the Caribbean and does not prevent him from sending the captain who threatens his life into the abyss. Martin asked directly: "Can the matter be related to Depp?"

Brent told the truth: "It's difficult. All the evidence we have now ends with one of Depp's playmates."

Martin's heart automatically turned black as he thought of the detonator in Sanchez's backpack.

Had he and Bruce not been careful, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Ridley said: "Detective Brent, I have notified the Hollywood Producers Union, Screen Actors Guild, Directors Guild and other organizations about the relevant situation. I hope you can get to the bottom of it."

Brent made a serious statement: "We will definitely pursue the case to the end and not let any criminal off the hook."

Louise, who had been thinking about it, suddenly said: "I reported it to the police. Johnny Depp, the actor in the opposite "The Lone Ranger" cast, was hiding and transporting drugs!"

The dealers recruited by Depp almost destroyed her spiritual and physical sustenance and cut off her future financial resources.

Louise comes from an unusual family background and doesn't care about Depp and Megan Ellison at all. Moreover, if they both put pressure on each other, shrinking back will only become the laughing stock of all Hollywood.

She said again: "Detective Brent, I reported the crime on the spot, will you accept it?"

"Accepted!" Brent turned on the intercom and called his subordinates over to make a report.

After making preparations, he summoned ten capable subordinates and entered the area where the "Lone Ranger" crew was fully armed.

Seeing the FBI people setting off, Ridley said, "I'm going to call the union people and communicate with them."

Martin said: "Go back and rest early, tomorrow won't be too late."

After Ridley left, Louise asked, "What were you thinking about just now?"

Martin said: "As long as Depp's brain is not completely rotten, it is difficult to implicate him in this matter."

"Unless he really has a lot of drugs," Louise said.

This is not very likely. It was precisely because there was not much stock that Depp's followers contacted Sanchez and three people and asked them to deliver the goods to his door.

Martin climbed onto the roof of the RV and looked at the crew's camp opposite from a high point.

When Louise came up, he said: "Let's take a look at the specific situation first, and then talk about other things." Both of them were paying attention to the movements of the "Lone Ranger" crew.

…………

In a Mercedes-Benz RV with almost the same appearance, Johnny Depp's carnival party is still going on.

After several bottles of wine were bottomed out, Depp shouted to Amber: "Go to the refrigerator to get the wine, hurry up! How can our party be without wine!"

Amber opened the refrigerator, took out a few bottles of wine, and placed them on the low table in front of Depp.

Depp opened one of the bottles, filled a glass directly, and handed it to Amber: "Here, let's have a drink together!"

Amber took the glass, took a big sip, found some excuse, and left the area. She took out her phone and pretended to read the news, and secretly took pictures of all the scenes at Depp's party.

Especially Lily-Rose, who was watching TV, Amber deliberately took a few more photos.

This woman has complicated thoughts.

Depp drank a large glass of wine, frowned and asked, "Has the goods not arrived yet?"

Hodgson took out his phone, took a look at it, and said, "That's what I just mentioned."

Depp was a little unhappy: "Is the person you contacted reliable?"

The car door was suddenly knocked from outside, and Hodgson jumped up: "They are coming, I will open the door!"

He ran to the car door, opened it and complained: "Where have you been? Goods..."

Before he finished speaking, a big hand reached out and pushed him into the car, and several burly men in blue uniform jackets swarmed in.

Hodgson was pinned against the wall of the RV and unable to move.

More people in blue uniforms rushed in, and someone shouted: "FBI, put your hands on your head! Let me see your hands!"

Deputen suddenly stood up and shouted: "Who let you in! Get out of here! Get out of here!"

He drank wine and took drugs. He didn't care about anything else. He grabbed the wine bottle in front of him and threw it out: "Get out of here, everyone!"

The wine bottle hit the carpet softly. Brent's men knew who Depp was before they acted, so there was no way they could actually pull out a gun and kill him.

The two men rushed forward and pinned Depp to the low table.

Depp could not move his body, but his mouth was not idle, and he spewed out all kinds of curse words as if they were free of charge.

Everyone else wants to take action.

Depp's bodyguard didn't drink much. He saw the FBI uniform clearly and shouted at the bastards who wanted to take action: "Don't move. Do you want to kill Depp? Don't move!"

These people woke up a little, and the most important thing was that they saw the black muzzle of the gun in the FBI's hand.

Brent got into the car at this time, showed his ID, and the search warrant that was quickly processed and faxed, and asked his subordinates to search the RV carefully.

Amber just watched with cold eyes, saying nothing and doing nothing.

In the car, the smell of cigarettes and alcohol was mixed together, and the smell was quite unpleasant. Brent covered his nose and found a drunk little girl sitting on the sofa, and asked a female agent to take her down first.

He glanced at Depp who was pressed on the low table and shook his head secretly.

Soon, an agent found flour from under the low table, but the amount was not large.

Brent asked: "Who is Hodgson?"

"I am!" People like Hodgson were all raised by Depp for many years. They usually eat and drink together, but at critical moments, some of them also show loyalty.

Hodgson fell into this category. He thought that several dealers he contacted had never shown up, and he guessed that the FBI's arrival might have something to do with it. He simply said: "Those things are mine, they are all mine!"

Although Depp is an asshole, he has nothing to say to his friends.

Another person also shouted: "Yes, these things were brought by Hodgson, all brought by his bastard!"

Depp wanted to speak, but the bodyguard kept winking at him, but in the end he said nothing.

An agent came in from outside and whispered to Brent: "Producer Jerry Bruckheimer and investor Megan Ellison are here."

Before Brent took action, he learned about the crew's situation in detail and said, "You take control of the car and I'll go meet them."

After getting out of the car, Megan Ellison came over directly and asked, "I want to see your documents and procedures."

Brent showed them one by one.

Jerry Bruckheimer was relatively calm. After looking at the ID, he asked, "Can I know what happened?"

Brent was extremely serious: "In this car, someone was involved in a case of armed extortion, armed drug trafficking and violent injury..."

Jerry asked: "Depp involved?"

"It currently involves people around Johnny Depp." Brent was more cautious: "Whether it involves Johnny Depp himself, we will find out."

Megan Ellison's anger accumulated over the past few days went straight to her head. She wanted to grab the gun from Brent's waist, get in the car and blow out Depp's head!

This bastard was pushing her patience to the limit.

Jerry noticed something and quickly said: "Depp is our leading actor, we can't give up."

Meghan thought about the huge investment and suppressed her anger again.
