Ellis was silent for a while on the other end of the phone, then suddenly said to Basil Jaak, "Brother Jaak, I mentioned your case to my old man during dinner last night, he said…"
"Go ahead." Basil Jaak narrowed his eyes, his tone remained unchanged.
Ellis said, "He said he can't get involved directly, it has to be led by the government. If someone takes the lead and submits the case materials, it will be no trouble."
Although Basil had already anticipated the outcome, he was still a little disappointed after hearing Ellis say it.
But Basil didn't blame Ellis. After all, Ellis's father, Elroy, was part of the prosecution, and it seemed inappropriate to rashly help a confirmed criminal. He promised not to make things hard for Basil Jaak on the prosecution side, which was a pretty big favor.
