Chapter 660: Everyone's Direction
Mr. Hoff rubbed his face, which already had wrinkles, with both hands forcefully.
Interestingly, although there were wrinkles on his face, compared to the faces of those homeless people outside, although there were wrinkles, they were still soft.
Supplementing enough nutrition every day made his physical condition much better than ordinary people, but this didn't make him any better than ordinary people when facing trouble.
He couldn't curse any dirty words himself. He wanted to pick up the coffee and take a sip to moisten his throat, but when he picked up the coffee, his trembling hands caused the coffee to spill, wetting and scalding his legs, he finally cursed loudly!
He forcefully threw the coffee cup to the ground, and all the vicious language he could think of was used on that damn coffee cup!
It was as if... its existence was the biggest mistake in the world!
The butler had been guarding outside the door. "Sir, do you need me to come in?"
His words made Mr. Hoff calm down. Mr. Hoff shook his hair, letting the messy hair stick to his scalp again, and smoothed it with his hand. "No, thank you, the coffee cup fell to the ground."
He explained it after all, and then looked at his trembling right hand. After the anger in his heart subsided, only fear remained.
This was a very interesting thing.
When people think they have made psychological preparations for facing disaster, in fact, most of the time they haven't!
Just like what he was facing at this moment, his hands, because of fear, were trembling!
He lit a cigarette again with trembling hands, picked up the phone, and dialed Mr. Charles's number.
The phone was connected quickly. Before the opposite side could make a sound, he asked loudly, "Did you see the news this morning?"
Mr. Charles took about two or three seconds to react to who was on the other end of the phone, and nodded. "Yes, I saw it. There is a scandal about you on it."
He didn't ask nonsense like "Did you really do these things," because he knew that Mr. Hoff not only did these things, but the number of times he did them was far more than what was exposed.
After all, New Jincheng didn't only have one Red High Heels, and even now, there were still people engaged in the population business.
The population business wasn't just selling people from one region like commodities to other regions; that was just the lowest level of the population business.
It also included, but wasn't limited to, capturing, training various slaves, providing one-time emotional consumption products for some rich people, providing human experimental samples that hadn't been declared to medical groups privately...
There were too many types and too wide a range here. Ordinary people couldn't come into contact with it, but rich and powerful people would definitely be able to come into contact with it.
It was like a... hobby for the upper class of the Federation.
Even if you didn't like it, there would be people who liked it who would take you into it, letting you discover fun from it.
These scandals weren't exposed, so it was a secret that everyone knew and had a tacit understanding of. But once exposed, it was a huge trouble.
Mr. Hoff called at this time, and Mr. Charles didn't know how to reply either.
Neither of them knew what to say, and the phone maintained a situation where no one spoke very strangely.
After about... more than a minute, Mr. Hoff asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Mr. Charles sighed lightly. "I really want to tell you that this is just a small trouble, but you know, we can't do that."
He paused. "There are only two things you need to do now. First, execute our previous plan as soon as possible, and get rid of Lans as soon as possible."
"Second, after arranging everything, leave New Jincheng immediately. I'm afraid that if you leave too late, it will be too late!"
"Go directly to Manton, or even go directly to New Jin City, find someone who has a good relationship with you, someone who can protect you."
"Then plead guilty, resign, make active compensation..."
Mr. Hoff interrupted Mr. Charles directly. "That way I'll be finished for the rest of my life!"
His voice was squeezed out from his throat, from the gaps in his teeth. Although Mr. Charles couldn't see his appearance at this time, he could imagine his gritted teeth, and some white foam at the corners of his mouth due to excitement.
Mr. Charles frowned. "What you should consider now is how to protect yourself, not your work."
"You still have stocks, and dividends from the foundation. Losing your political things, at least you still have money."
"For the sake of your life and money, I hope you can calm down quickly, and then do as I say!"
There was another brief silence. Mr. Hoff breathed heavily, like an injured beast!
After a while, the sound of heavy breathing in the receiver disappeared. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "I know."
Mr. Charles was very satisfied with an "um," and at the same time comforted him. "After handling this matter, we will find a way to take these hats off for you. By then, you will still be your opinion leader."
"But the premise is that we can safely pass this crisis, understand?"
Mr. Hoff gradually calmed down. "I know."
"Also!", Mr. Charles said after a while, "If you are caught..." Mr. Hoff gritted his teeth. "I won't confess anything."
"Very good, do as I say as soon as possible."
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Charles looked at his bodyguards. "How long have you been following me?"
One of the guys who could be considered the bodyguard captain said, "It's been almost thirty years, sir."
"Thirty years!", Mr. Charles repeated, followed by a sigh. "How many thirty years can a person have in their life? I didn't expect that we have already been together for thirty years..."
His tone was full of helplessness and emotion about the long time. After his emotions were low for a while, he looked at these people again. "You know Mr. Hoff. He might encounter trouble. I'm worried that if he didn't listen, or had bad luck, and wasn't able to leave New Jincheng smoothly, and was caught by Williams's people."
"So... you guys look at the arrangement."
"Is there anyone willing to go? Regardless of success or failure, twenty thousand in cash, and as long as I don't fall, I will treat his family as my family, and give them the best of everything."
"Wealth, status, everything!"
He didn't know Mr. Hoff very well, just simply understood "people."
!
Mr. Charles had heard of some horrifying interrogation methods. Those military intelligence personnel who had received professional training couldn't withstand the interrogation and confessed everything they knew.
Mr. Hoff, why could he withstand the interrogation and not confess?
Once he was caught, and then measures were taken, there was no need for long. What should be said and what shouldn't be said would all be said.
So ensuring that they couldn't catch a living Mr. Hoff was very important.
The other two people's situation was slightly better, not core members, and the things they knew were limited, but Mr. Hoff couldn't.
Once he was caught, he couldn't be allowed to reveal the things he knew. He must die!
After arranging these, Mr. Charles reorganized his appearance and came to the living room.
The guy sitting there stood up immediately. There was a gentle smile on Mr. Charles's face. "Mr. Hop, I have learned about some of your views, and I have to say that it is very shocking!"
"Your love for your nation, family, and friends makes me, and even many Federation people, feel ashamed!"
"I admit that there are indeed many problems in the Federation now. People don't pay enough attention to refugees, and abuse the cheap labor of refugees to let them do dangerous things. We urgently need to use some forces to reverse all of this."
"But this is not something that I alone, or you alone, can easily do. This requires many people, and even bloodshed and sacrifice!"
"For the future of the refugee group, Mr. Hop, do you have the courage to face these?"
Mr. Hop's eyeballs were shining. Anyway, bloodshed and sacrifice weren't shedding his blood or sacrificing him. What did he dare not face?
Although that was said, politics, after all, was a public performance class.
He suddenly became excited. "I thank you for your generosity and kindness on behalf of millions of refugees, Mr. Charles. The people of the New Port District will remember your kindness..."
It was easy to defeat Mayor Williams, but what Mr. Charles wanted was to completely crush him, not giving him the opportunity to plan for the future.
If a vicious large-scale group conflict occurred in New Jincheng, and a large group of people died and were injured, and among them were many refugees.
To appease the emotions of allies and also give the domestic public an explanation, would the Federation government directly impeach Mayor Williams and let him step down early, and then beat him to death with a stick?
Very likely!
Even if the Federation government didn't intend to beat him to death with a stick, Mr. Charles and this group of them wouldn't let him live!
The person shocked by this matter was definitely not just the person involved. When Mayor Williams got up in the morning and saw this newspaper, he also gasped.
He knew these notebooks and also knew what was on them. He almost forgot about this matter before, until this moment!
He immediately picked up the phone and dialed the number of Police Chief Bulu's office. Police Chief Bulu didn't dare to go home to sleep now, for fear that the Mayor would call at any time, and he wouldn't answer immediately, eventually being replaced.
Fortunately, there was a lounge in the office, and he could rest in the lounge. At the same time, this could be considered his territory, and living here temporarily gave him a strong sense of security.
The phone was connected quickly. He didn't even dare to sit on the chair, holding the receiver carefully with both hands and placing it by his ear. "This is the Chief's office, I am Bulu."
"Did you see the news today?"
"Such a big thing happened, can you still sit still now?"
"I see you don't want to do it anymore!"
As soon as Mayor Williams opened his mouth, Police Chief Bulu was dumbfounded. What the hell was going on?
