Chapter 1021 What's the Matter, It Seems to Be Thrown Away?

A day ago, in a large palace somewhere, two men, an old man and a young man, were shouting and arguing, and a dark-haired young man was silently watching.

"Your old way of doing things isn't working anymore, we are crumbling..." said the young man.

"You are a vain, insatiable, cruel child!" The old man interrupted him and roared.

"Then you're a stupid old thing!" the young man yelled back immediately.

The old man was silent, and a moment later his voice resounded in the palace: "...You disobeyed the king's orders and brought war and destruction to the people of the peaceful country... In the name of my father and ancestors, I will You drive out the door!"

After a while, only the old man and the black-haired young man existed in the palace, and the young man who was arguing with the old man had disappeared.

The black-haired young man couldn't help but say, "Father, you..."

The old man waved his hand, raised the hammer in his hand to his mouth, and said softly, "Whoever holds this hammer in his hand and deserves it, will surely have the power of God!"

Saying that, he threw out the hammer.

The hammer instantly penetrated into a splendid seven-colored passage, and fell rapidly towards somewhere in the universe.

The old man frowned at the moment, and muttered in his heart: What the hell, it seems to have been thrown away?

Immediately, he looked at the black-haired young man beside him, and gave up his plan to take the hammer back and throw it again.

Forget it, it's just a little bit of a deviation anyway. For my stupid son, it's just a matter of taking a few more steps. Thinking so, he silently turned around and walked into the depths of the palace.

Only the dark-haired young man was left standing there.

After a long time, the corners of the young man's mouth curled up, revealing a genuine evil smile.

...

At the New York airport, Luke's family had already boarded the plane. He changed seats with another passenger and was transferred to Robert and the others.

During the flight, the two had been discussing in a low voice, each holding a mobile phone and writing and drawing on it.

Catherine didn't go to mix it up. She knew that the two of them couldn't help herself with their busy work. Her most important task was to do her best logistical work after arriving in Dallas and take care of a large number of people who were about to be transferred to Houston.

at this moment,

She is also a little fortunate that Luke has made a lot of money this year.

Otherwise, her family would be unable to afford this kind of "travel on the go", and it would be absolutely impossible for Selena's family.

When the plane arrived in Fort Worth, Luke called for a lengthened Lincoln with a driver. Catherine took Claire and Joseph into the car and headed east to Houston to arrange a "vacation".

Luke and Robert drove their Chevrolet sedan in the parking lot next to the airport and returned to Shackford in the northwest.

In the Lincoln car, Joseph turned his head in confusion and looked at the direction where his father and brother were leaving, and asked, "Mom, why don't Dad and Luke come with us?"

Catherine smiled: "Because they are going to pick up a lot of people to play with, are you having fun?"

Joseph nodded, and didn't ask any further questions.

He is very smart, and when he sees everyone's behavior, he knows that there must be something wrong with the adults.

At this time, he should not make trouble.

Here, Luke sat in the driver's seat of the Chevrolet and quickly soared the speed of the car.

Robert also took out his mobile phone and began to call the men of the Shackford Police Department and asked them to do some preparatory work.

The reason was just made up by him and Luke, as long as it was claimed that the police station received a donation, the donor tested the ability of the Shackford Police Department to respond to emergencies, so an emergency exercise was conducted.

Of course, the money will be paid by Luke, and part of it will be directly distributed to the police officers as bonuses, and police officers with outstanding performance can also get higher bonuses.

Robert specifically explained this to his subordinates, lest they be perfunctory.

What unknown danger, what power, is far less simple, direct and effective than a little monetary stimulus.

Hearing the cheers from the other end of the phone, Robert hung up the phone silently, and suddenly sighed: "You make so much money, haven't you thought about this situation?"

"This is a country of money, and the one with money can even drive it to serve us." Luke said calmly.

After a pause, he continued: "Even if it's not this time, there will be another time. Even if it's not a mysterious incident, it may be an enemy, a fool or a lunatic. And most of these dangers can be prevented and solved through money, So I chose to be rich, and let you and Katherine be rich. Not for any extravagance, but to make our lives safer. Money is just a tool to keep us safe."

Robert was silent for a long time and smiled bitterly: "You are much more mature than when I was young. I think I actually wanted to agree when they recruited me to make black money."

Luke raised his eyebrows: "They? Wouldn't they be your old comrades?"

Robert shook his head slightly: "I was a boss for a period of time, but I can only be regarded as a secondment. And they didn't know, I knew at the time what they wanted to do with me, so I just didn't need to apply for a transfer, and they had to let them go. I'll go."

Luke was still a little curious: "What do they want?"

Robert glanced at him: "Illegal drugs, use military aircraft directly, and bring at least one ton at a time. As long as you pay the ground staff and guards at the base, they have no risk, and a large box can be brought out as casually as food and drinking water."

Luke was dumbfounded, but still shook his head: "This is not a small amount of money. You have to follow them. In a year or two, millionaires will start, and multi-millionaires are not impossible. If you can refuse this temptation, you are no worse than me when you are young."

There was no happy look on Robert's face, and he just continued: "That's what happened, which made me suddenly understand that maybe I'm not doing anything for the United States when I'm fighting in the army, although it's always said in conscription advertisements. But I've seen it before. Many bureaucrats are not only corrupt, but also become big businessmen themselves. I couldn’t bear to continue to be comrades with these people, and finally I asked a few old friends for help and finally retired.”

Having said this, he paused: "Frank Custer did me a favor and asked his boss to let me go."

Luke frowned: "He, also participated?"

Robert shook his head: "No, he just knew I didn't want to stay there, so he just helped me."

Luke pondered for a moment: "Who is that boss?"

Robert: "Ray Skunov, he's in the Marines, but he's got a lot of connections in the CIA, the FBI, and the Homeland Administration."

Luke snorted, but thought in his heart: This kind of favor is really too heavy.

Frank Castor is Robert's biggest creditor, and Luke must be more attentive to his affairs.
