Chapter 108: 88. Filming a documentary for Miss America (7K large chapter, please subscribe~)

    Donnie was indeed willing to meet with this Mr. Walker.


    A normal person visiting Antic City wouldn''t think about meeting with so-called Antic City bigwigs like Donnie Block.


    All they care about is whether they''re having a good time in Antic City.


    Only two kinds of people, after experiencing the splendors of Antic City, might want to meet someone like Donnie, a big shot of the city.


    The first kind is Ponzi-schemers, who need funding from bigwigs like Donnie.


    The second is someone from a family with some status, yet within such a family, they themselves do not hold much sway; unlike high-status individuals who can simply call Donnie''s office and arrange a meeting.


    Regardless of which type they were, they might be beneficial for Donnie.


    However, just as Donnie was preparing to meet with Walker the next day, he encountered someone he didn''t want to see.


    Federal Agent Diesel Mard!


    "Diesel, as I recall, you came to Antic City to investigate Nucky''s affair, so why have you been troubling me all this time?"


    Initially, Diesel Mard came to Antic City because General Olden had pulled some strings for him in Washington, leading the FBI to send Diesel Mard and others to investigate Nucky''s matters.


    But now, Diesel Mard had set his sights on Donnie, much to Donnie''s displeasure.


    Diesel Mard didn''t care about Donnie''s attitude, "We will of course investigate Nucky''s matters, but with Ponzi''s scheme, there are many doubts to be addressed. Block, don''t think that just because you have risen swiftly in Antic City in the past few months, you can talk to me with that attitude. You know I can take you in for questioning at any time.


    Now you don''t have a scoundrel like Olden speaking for you!"


    The Ponzi scheme still had repercussions.


    As Nucky put it, behind Ponziy millions of US dors, and the FBI was not likely to let the matter go easily.


    So, not long after Ponzi died, Olden was transferred out of Antic City, now he''s in Chicago.


    Diesel Mard took over the task of investigating Ponzi''s case.


    Through Diesel Mard''s investigation, he discovered that Donnie had a very good rtionship with Olden. Olden had even helped Donnie acquire the best amodation in Antic City, The Fuli Tavern.


    Moreover, Diesel Mard also found out that Donnie had met privately with Ponzi at one of his banquets. Just a few days after their private encounter, Ponzi''s scheme blew up.


    Most crucially, it was first exposed on Donnie''s newspaper, the "Antic City Post"!


    All this evidence gave Diesel reason to suspect Donnie''s involvement in Ponzi''s disappearance!

    "Ha!" Faced with Diesel Mard''s threat, Donnie was unconcerned and even let out a disdainfulugh: "Mard, have you forgotten where you are, who I am? If you dare take me away, then I assure you, this afternoon the bestwyers in Washington will sue both you and the agency behind you.


    The FBI won''t have an issue, but what about you?


    Once you lose your status as a Federal Agent, do you think you''ll have any leverage in speaking to me?"


    Diesel Mard''s expression darkened; he didn''t like the way Donnie was speaking to him at all.


    "Based on everything you''ve done in Antic City, I have ample reason to take you in, so Don''t think for a second I can''t handle you, Donnie Block!"


    Donnieughed heartily, "If that''s really the case, as you say, you wouldn''t be just standing here talking to me now."


    "Wow, wow!"


    At that moment, a frivolous voice chimed in. Young Walker had walked in and, upon seeing Diesel Mard, began to tease.


    "Mard, you''re quite the nuisance, aren''t you? I thought you were annoying enough at West Point, and yet here you are in Antic City, still bothering everyone!"


    Seeing Walker, Diesel Mard disyed the same look of annoyance as Walker''s.


    "Walker Astor, have you forgotten the fear of being under my control at West Point?"


    Walker gave a scornful smile, "Then why, instead of entering the military as a top student capable of bing an officer, did you end up in the Bureau of Investigation as just a Federal Agent?"


    Diesel Mard clenched his fists tightly, clearly agitated by Walker.


    "Wow, wow!" Walker gestured with his hands in front of his chest andughed, "If you dare raise a hand, I think Mr. Block''swyers won''t even need to get involved before you lose your job!"


    After a cold snort, Diesel Mard decided not to deal with Walker any further, but he also knew he wouldn''t get the information he wanted at this time.


    "I''ll be watching you, Donnie Block!" Having said that, Diesel Mard turned and left.


    Donnie didn''t bother with Diesel Mard''s departure and instead watched with amusement as Walker Astor had just walked in and chased Diesel Mard away!


    The name Walker is quitemon in the United States, but the surname Astor makes it a bit special.


    Especially through the course of the conversation between Walker and Diesel Mard, Walker''s disy of prowess further confirmed Donnie''s suspicions about the other''s identity.
