Charlie smiled and remarked, “It would be wonderful if Miss Fei knew him. To be honest, I have something very important I need to discuss with him. However, since arriving in New York, I discovered that their store has been shut down. I’ve heard that he was arrested by the FBI on suspicion of fraud. I was wondering if you could help me find out where he is?” Fei Kexin responded in surprise, “Mr. Wade, you’vee to New York. Did Madam know?”
Charlie replied, “I rushed over this time, and the matter is rather sensitive, so I didn’t inform Chu Ran. I’d appreciate it if Miss Fei could keep this a secret for me.”
Fei Kexin quickly assured him, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade, I won’t tell Madam.”
She then added, “You just mentioned that Peter Zhou was arrested. I haven’t heard anything about that, but I’ll make some inquiries. Let’s gather some clues, and I’ll update you as soon as I find out!”
“Okay,” Charlie said, expressing his gratitude, “Thank you, Miss Fei.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
After ending the call, Charlie turned to Arman and said, “Uncle Arman, Miss Fei is looking into this for us, but it might take a bit of time. Let’s grab some breakfast at Buckingham Pce in New York and then rest.”
“Sure,” Arman nodded, smiling. “However, Buckingham Pce is still a bit far. If Miss Fei gets back to us quickly, we might not even have to wait half an hour. Why don’t we just eat something across the street? I’d love a cup of coffee; I don’t n on sleeping all day!”
Charlie agreed, finding Arman’s suggestion reasonable.
The two headed to the restaurant across the street, ordered some food, and enjoyed their coffee. Just before they finished their drinks, Fei Kexin called again.
Once connected, she informed Charlie, “Mr. Wade, I’ve looked into the situation you asked about. Peter Zhou was indeed arrested by the FBI four months ago. He got into trouble with a member of the Rothschild family, and it was that very family who requested his arrest.”
Charlie frowned, questioning, “The Rothschild family? Were they directly involved or coteral?”
Charlie pressed on, “Do you know what specifically led to this offense?”
“Not exactly,” Fei Kexin admitted. “However, it’s known that although he was arrested by the FBI, the Rothschilds conducted their own interrogation. The FBI wasn’t even allowed to remain present during this process. It seems that after their questioning, the Rothschilds were furious and used their influence to have Peter Zhou imprisoned in Brooklyn Prison without any trial. For months, his family andwyers have been barred from visiting him.”
Charlie felt unsurprised. After all, the Rothschild family is extremely wealthy and deeply integrated into the power structures of the United States. They certainly have the means to detain individuals at will, perhaps with just a word.
He then asked her, “In such a situation, if someone is imprisoned without trial and denied visits, does that imply they might never be released?”
“Very likely,” Fei Kexin confirmed. “The Rothschild family probably seeks information or results from Peter Zhou. Until they achieve their objective, they won’t let him go, even if he hires the bestwyers in the U.S. If they decide he poses a threat to national security, they couldbel him as such, which would give them significant power to keep him locked up.”
Marven inquired, “Miss Fei, is there any chance to get him out?”
Fei Kexin hesitated, saying, “Mr. Wade, let me be honest. In theory, the Fei family can aplish nearly anything in New York, but that hinges on the Rothschild family’s approval. If the Rothschild family makes a decision, no one can alter it. If I were to try to intervene, everyone I ask would likely tell me it’s impossible.”<fn986f> Latest content published on </fn986f>
Charlie felt the weight of the situation. His primary goal in visiting Peter Zhou was to uncover the nature of his connection to his father, especially concerning why he went by the alias Zhou Liangyun and what links he had to acquiring the “Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures.”
However, all of this relied on the ability to meet him in person. With Peter Zhou now imprisoned by the Rothschilds, and even Fei Kexin unable to help him, the situation was indeed dire.
In desperation, Charlie asked, “Ms. Fei, would it be possible for you to send someone to Brooklyn Jail?”</p“directly,”>
