Chapter 755 The Truth
Alvin doesn't quite understand what Raymond means. What's wrong with someone targeting a scumbag vice president?
But Alvin knew that people like Raymond would never do unnecessary things. Now that he started talking, this Bob must be a key figure.
Raymond is obviously very satisfied with Alvin's attitude. This proud old viper doesn't even care about Stark, but he has suffered more in Alvin's life than in other places combined, which makes him very awkward. , now I’m fine, I finally have something I’m good at...
"Someone started planning against the Vice President before us. They not only set up a trap to kill the "Prince of Peace," but also prepared follow-up means to push the Vice President to hell.
One of my reporter informants told me that today the editor-in-chief of the New York Times received a document that clearly recorded a large-scale oil pipeline accident that occurred in Bahrain thousands of kilometers away three years ago. The vice president was directly responsible for the massacre.
In fact, if Stark hadn't been attacked and attracted all the media's attention, the editor-in-chief of the New York Times might have published this story tomorrow...
All "understanding people" now believe that what happened today is a farce directed and staged by the vice president. "
As he spoke, Raymond glanced at Bob, who looked ugly, and said with a smile: "But what happened to Mr. sniper tells me that someone is targeting our enemies.
Coincidentally, I received some specious intelligence, which showed that the Vice President was somewhat related to the attack on Stark Manor..."
Alvin frowned and looked at Raymond and said, "So what? Should I feel sad that a scumbag was framed?
The vice president has ties to terrorists, and I always feel like the guy who planned the attack on Stark Manor also has ties to terrorists.
Don't ask me how I know, I just "guessed" it. It doesn't matter whether it's correct or not, I want to kill them anyway. "
Raymond nodded and said with a smile: "Maybe the Vice President is indeed one of the people who wants Stark to die, but just one of them!
The reactions of all parties to this incident were very strange. The CIA was almost equivalent to a large-scale rebellion, but Washington did not make any response within 12 hours..."
After speaking, Raymond paused. Like a qualified mentor, he let Alvin digest the information, and then continued: "The "Church" has returned to New York. Many people have died in New York in the past two hours, most of them It's those CIA agents who act strangely.
They are carrying out a big purge. This is the CIA's way of handling things. No matter how it starts, everything can end with death. In comparison, the FBI is much cuter!
I don't care whether the vice president lives or dies, but I had separate phone calls with "Church" and Harvey. The information we got came from different channels, but the same thing is that these information are pushing the vice president to the guillotine.
When did this kind of extremely confidential information become a "big commodity" in the intelligence community? "
Alvin rubbed his temples with a headache, and then said: "You mean that the vice president has been sent to the gallows, but he is not necessarily the culprit of Stark's attack...
Someone actually wants to use us, or me, when they release the news. What do they want to do? "
Raymond tilted his neck and looked at Alvin, and said with some emotion: "Maybe he is the culprit, but that doesn't matter anymore.
Someone has seen through you, Principal Alvin!
If you didn't get this information from my mouth, what would you do when you knew what the vice president did..."
As he spoke, Raymond looked at Alvin's strange expression, shook his head, and said: "Your weaknesses are too obvious, and many people can design against you based on your character weaknesses...
They want you to be accused of murdering the Vice President. Maybe they can't do anything to you, but your status as a hero will become that of a criminal.
Some people want to force you out of the United States. Your use of Hell's Kitchen as your "prison" obviously does not impress those people. Compared with the benefits they may gain...
After that, Stark may still be the richest man in the world without you to help him stand up, but he will no longer be able to control the dominance of new energy sources. Just having core technology may not necessarily give him the right to speak.
do you remember? New energy companies are independent...
And maybe Stark will die directly in this incident. After all, he has been "seriously injured", right? "
Stark came to Alvin's side, and with an extremely ugly face, he picked up a glass of whiskey and drank it. He looked at Raymond with a complicated expression and said, "You mean that there are actually two hostile parties who want me dead." , it’s just that one party will put all the blame on the people on the damn vice president’s side.
All those compromises, all those concessions I made in the past, were all fucking pointless. Am I dealing with a bunch of heartless bastards? "
Raymond looked at Stark with a strange expression and said, "Is this weird? Don't you realize how much benefit you have?
Besides, actually one of the parties doesn’t necessarily want you to die, but they are just happy if you die!
There is still a difference here..."
Stark felt a little uncomfortable and poured another glass of wine and said: "Yes, I understand that they are targeting Alvin. As long as Alvin kills the vice president, they don't even need a trial. Public opinion alone can kill him." Alvin is isolated from ordinary people.
They want Alvin to leave, are these people crazy? Don’t they know what Alvin actually represents?
Alvin was just in Hell’s Kitchen, he wasn’t infringing on anyone’s fucking interests…”
Raymond nodded slightly coldly, then looked at Stark and said: "But he is your best friend, and those people know that he will always be on your side...
Those people clearly know that as long as Alvin stands behind you, they will not be able to get the "control" they want.
That is a huge and unimaginable benefit, not just money, but almost endless rights derived from it...
Think about those people who control the energy supply of the entire world, think about the rights that would arise..."
Stark rubbed his cheek painfully, then looked at Alvin with a strange expression and said, "Should I say sorry or something now?"
Alvin smiled and shook his head and said, "Why? Just for something that hasn't happened yet?
I've never worried about being targeted. Isn't "powerful" just for being "hated"? "
As he spoke, Alvin glanced at the "cold" Raymond, then put his arm around Stark's shoulders and patted him hard, smiling and saying: "Man, you don't seem to be used to the logic of Hell's Kitchen yet..."
Stark looked at Alvin's sincere eyes, suddenly smiled, picked up the wine glass, clinked it hard with Alvin, drank it down and said, "Yes, we should always stand on the side of our own people!"
While Alvin and Stark were talking, Harry pulled Peter to the window with his back to Alvin who was not far away. They dialed the number of his father, Norman Osborn.
"Dad, Principal Alvin is in trouble..."
Norman Osborne on the other end of the phone patiently listened to his son's story, was silent for a moment, and then said: "I know..."
Harry was obviously very dissatisfied with his father's attitude. He shouted in a low voice: "That's it? This is your answer, Principal Alvin..."
Norman Osborne on the other end of the phone suddenly smiled and interrupted Harry's "accusation" and said: "Then what do you want me to do?
I have some information and have made some preparations, but you obviously have other ideas.
Tell me, I'm curious to what extent my son is willing to go to the principal who has given him a lot of help? "
Harry was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I don't know, I just felt that I had to do something, but I didn't know what to do, so I called you.
I think you can definitely help..."
Norman Osborne on the other end of the phone was not disappointed. He smiled and said: "I received a little news, so I am ready to take those Stark Group stocks used to create panic when Wall Street opens tomorrow.
Stark and I are not friends, but Alvin is.
I'm willing to make some sacrifices for my friends. Oh, maybe it won't necessarily be a "sacrifice" in the end, maybe it'll be a pretty good investment...
But now you say someone is targeting Alvin, so what do you want to do? "
Harry was stunned for a moment and said with some frustration: "I don't know, Dad, what do you think we should do? Am I stupid for doing this?"
Norman Osborne on the other end of the phone didn't show any disappointment at all. Instead, he laughed happily and said, "No, it's not stupid at all!
Harry, you are a different Osborn. You will take a different path, which is completely different from the Osborn of the past. "
Speaking, Norman Osborne laughed and said: "Do what you think in your heart and tell Alvin that Osborne will be on his side.
And if you are willing, help me bring a message to Stark. He owes me a favor! "
Harry nodded excitedly and said, "I understand, Dad..."
Listening to Harry's excited voice, Norman Osborn sighed helplessly, and then said: "You are very good, but you should be smarter and don't let Alvin get the bad habit of not liking to think!
Alvin knows all the things you said, doesn't he still know how to deal with them? "
Harry was stunned for a moment, then turned around to see Alvin looking at him with a smile and making a "thank you" mouth gesture.
This handsome young man suddenly looked at his buddy Peter with a little shame and said, "Am I stupid?"
Peter spread his hands and said with a strange expression: "At least you have a good father!
Are you saying that "lack of thinking" is really a contagious disease? "
