[Comprehensive British and American dramas] No.1 is called non-plural

Isaac choked for a while, determined not to touch any food here again.He wasn't sure that this gentleman wouldn't continue to utter any shocking words in the future. It's nothing if the red wine was choked into the intake pipe. Next time, if it's an unchewed steak...

Isaac refused to think about the outcome of the matter.

but--

"Stay away from Carl?" Isaac tried his best not to think of strange places, because this sentence and the current scene are really like a wealthy lady meeting her disobedient son's Cinderella girlfriend privately, only Throwing a check to someone to fill out casually, "I don't understand."

"Don't make me speak too clearly, kid." Glendon SawyerKing rubbed the ring on his hand, "No matter what purpose you make friends with Carl, I will not let you continue to use him. This is the bottom line, otherwise , I'll let you know what an angry father can do."

He was a bit miscalculated, seeing is believing, those boring records in the file made him preconceived, but the file and the real person are completely different.As a politician, a senator, and a person who makes plans for the direction of this country, Mr. King is not packaged by the team, he has his own skills, so he jumped directly to the topic.

His intuition told him that rambling is useless, it's better to get straight to the point, even if the conversation collapses, at least it saves time.

The polite smile disappeared from Isaac's face, and the gentleman's frankness also exceeded his expectations.Since he accepted the invitation, he also wanted to have a chat with this gentleman, but he was thrown a thunderbolt before it even started.Now, although the progress bar is pulling a bit fast, it is still in line with his intentions.

"I don't think my relationship with Carl will hurt anyone." Isaac tentatively said, "But thank you for being honest, I finally know what happened to the interview that messed up my work and took up a lot of my time." It's gone."

"You said it as if you were very reluctant." Regarding this question, Mr. King instinctively kept silent.

"It was really reluctant, so I refused." Isaac said, "Mr. King is impressive. I remember Carl said that his father was a very principled person, but in fact, it seems that he is not I know you well."

Ignoring Mr. King's sudden frown, Isaac continued, "So, the position of Deputy Director of the Secret Service is an exchange? Even in order to create an established fact, there was not even a bit of wind before. You are so confident, I got this position After that, will you accept your favor and directly alienate Carl?"

Mr. King originally wanted to say that the recommendation had nothing to do with Carl from the beginning to the end, but before he spoke, he caught the hidden meaning of this sentence.

"You should know who gave you this opportunity." Mr. King smiled calmly, but this only made his nasolabial folds look deeper.

Isaac finds this very interesting. Mr. King’s beating heart is completely inconsistent with his expression. Of course, everyone can do superficial tricks. Not every politician will behave like Bush Jr. after learning about the 9 attacks It's so bad, it's entirely possible that Mr. King is a great actor.If it weren't for this diametrically opposed performance, Isaac would really have believed his own nonsense, even though he still couldn't figure out who he and Carl were deliberately hindering.

But Mr. King's performance made him sure that there was another person behind this, and it was someone Mr. King could do nothing about.

"I didn't come from your sources for recommending me," Isaac said. "Have you been coerced, threatened? You want me to alienate Carl, so you don't want him involved?"

Mr. King stopped cutting the steak.

"Continue." Within three seconds, he continued to cut the steak.

"There are not many people who have the ability to treat you like this, and those people's power is not weaker than you, so there is no need to go around from you. But if it is someone who is not weaker than you but does not have this power...you have a handle Got caught." This conclusion is not difficult to draw, but, "But what does this have to do with me?"

Mr. King's heart beat faster and faster, yes, he understood Isaac's words, he seemed to know nothing about that person.Is this possible?Yes, because I was caught out of ignorance back then, and have been controlled by others ever since.But if not, the price would be too high for him to gamble.

Moreover, he always had a suspicion in his heart, that is, this matter may have something to do with the FBI.

"Continue." Mr. King kept weighing in his heart, he needed more information from Issac in order to make a better judgment.

"Can't continue." Isaac said in a probing tone, "You were caught out, so you were forced to recommend me... Oh, don't look at me like that, you didn't deny it, so I'll take it as your acquiescence... I became the beneficiary, out of nowhere. But there is no free lunch, and I also don't think anyone with such good intentions would ask for nothing. Then there is the problem, since I am supposed to know nothing about the people behind it , how does he benefit from me?"

"The status of the Secret Service is enough for you to know the news that is strictly classified, not just the whereabouts of the president." Mr. King also thought about this problem, "Someone will go crazy about those news."

"But why should I cooperate?" Of course Isaac knew how much information on national affairs and family affairs could be obtained as a personal bodyguard, but the secrecy regulations are not so easy to fool, otherwise, wouldn't others have thought of this idea?Of course not, it's just that people who can get into the position of bodyguard are not so easy to bribe. I heard that the highest honor in their hearts is to block bullets for the president.However, Isaac felt that the president should hope that this honor will never be achieved, because it means that he will be assassinated.

"At that time, you have no choice." Mr. King finally said something from his heart, "As long as you want to keep your current life."

"Blackmail." Isaac nodded. This method is simple and crude, but the simpler and more crude the method is, the more effective it is. "But I don't think I have a chance to fall into anyone's hands."

"Naive." Mr. King barked a laugh, he had thought so too.But the result, well, now is the result.

"I'm different from you, Mr. King." Isaac said seriously, "Our identities are different. The same thing may be a fatal blow to you, but it may not matter to me. I'm pretty sure I haven't broken any laws For the record, no one can manipulate me into doing things I don't like."

"Maybe it's just that you haven't had time to do it yet." Mr. King pointed out sharply, "When I was the same age as you, I also felt that there was nothing to fear in front of me, but you can't always be on guard when someone is staring at you. No Who is set in stone, maybe when you are getting older and find that your future is stagnant, you will reach out for help."

Isaac had to say that this statement made a lot of sense.But what Mr. King doesn't know is that Issac's own ambition is a spring attribute, and whether it can shrink into a ball or stretch infinitely depends on his mood.He doesn't feel that he will be anxious because of the stagnation of his career, and he also admits that if he has the opportunity, he will strive to make progress. What he is best at is to put his mentality right no matter what stage he is in.

"I don't deny that your words have some truth." Isaac said slowly, "But don't use your experience to apply me. In the FBI, it is grades that make people get promoted, not... Sorry, I didn't mean to offend, But to me, politicians are all about playing with words, and whoever writes a good empty promise, who wins and deceives more people, wins."

"Do you think your grades can support your promotion?" Although he had already begun to doubt the authenticity of the rigid file and admitted that the kid in front of him was not that simple, Mr. King still subconsciously doubted it.

"So, I think I'm very lucky. There are always some big cases that bump into me." Issac said with a pun, "What do you think?"

"I think you're crazy, you ignorant brat, you don't even know who you're dealing with?" Mr. King's body relaxed, he knew how terrifying the thing in that person's hand was, and Isaac's words were taken as ignorance by him Those who are fearless, he has made a decision that he cannot bet on such a person.Things were bad enough, and he didn't want to get any worse.

"I don't mind if you tell me." Isaac didn't care. He didn't think he could prevent a coup before, let alone play a role in the bin Laden incident.Some things seem unattainable, but when he actually touches them, he can do much more than he thought before.

"Create another handle?" Mr. King felt that the matter could stop here.

"Carl respects you very much." Isaac said suddenly, "And Ann, they all respect you. Once on their birthday, I lost a bet. I was supposed to invite them to a strip show for a high night, but the weather was bad that day. Shit, we're all stuck in my rented apartment, unable to go out at all, we can only stay in the house and have a hasty celebration. We all drank a lot of alcohol that day, Ann's drinking capacity is the worst, Carl's is better But not many, they were all very drunk, singing and dancing non-stop, and after finally being quiet for a while, they talked again and started talking about you. They talked upside down, but they were all remembering how you took care of them And love, Carl is usually pressed and beaten by Ann, but that day, he and Ann quarreled over who you love more. I don’t know how long they quarreled, but after I woke up after sleeping for a while, they were still arguing , Then, I threw the phone to them and asked them to call and ask directly, who is the child you love the most... Boring and childish are not like their usual appearance at all."

Mr. King remembers that day, it was early in the morning, he was quarreled by a phone call, and then he heard his son and daughter arguing, asking him who he likes the most, the wayward and coquettish tone is very common after their puberty Rarely, he was not upset at being disturbed at all, he held the phone and began to coax the child, imagining the scene where you punch me and I kick you for a while and love each other until the movement over there becomes more and more Little, the sound of breathing finally calmed down.

It was dawn, but he didn't feel sleepy at all.

The originally sweet memory made Mr. King stern, "What do you want to say?"

"Someone has caught your handle and threatened you to do things for him. I won't ask what the handle is, but I think it will be a fatal blow to your career." Isaac looked into Mr. King's eyes and asked , "Similarly, no matter what happens, your position in Carl's heart is unshakable and irreplaceable. Tell me, will one day, someone also use your share to blackmail him. If it's just about him You know, Carl is a very upright person and he will not compromise. But he loves you and knows that you love your career. Tell me, will he accept the threat to protect you, go to Do something you wouldn't otherwise do?"
