Hunter gave Charlie a call.
Although he is now the Director, he still has to focus on Charlie.
Don't think that just because Charlie is no longer the Director, he isn't important. He's about to become a Municipal Councilor for the Bay Area.
The nickname "Bay Area Hound" is very likely to continue, in recognition of his loyalty to the Bay Area.
Once he becomes a Municipal Councilor, he will be able to do even more for the Bay Area's wealthy, and since Hunter himself doesn't have strong ties to the Bay Area, he can only rely on Charlie's help.
When he told Charlie that this matter might be related to Lance, Charlie frowned immediately upon hearing it.
"Lance has some connections with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General, I'm not sure what their relationship is like."
"Let's investigate this matter according to procedure first, and if there is any evidence against him, subpoena him."
"If there's no evidence against him, let's just pretend we don't know about it."
