At that second, I heard God's voice, turned around subconsciously, and dodged the bullet. God said, this is his vote.

——
The whole story is completed, the following is the text-—— —
San Luodu, Orange County, the county seat is Santa Ana.
Eris' car was parked on the street outside the Orange County Courthouse.
Orange belongs to the county under the jurisdiction of San Loduo, with a population of about three million. It is located in the south of Long Beach. In the city of Anaheim in the county, there is the first Disneyland-Built in 1955.
Irvine, a well-known Chinese gathering place in the United States, is also located in Orange. By the way, the Chinese like to call this place Orange County.
But these have nothing to do with Eris. He came today just to wait for an ambitious young man, a well-known public defender in the Orange area.
The American judicial system has many problems, but it is still one of the most mature judicial systems in human history. Public defenders are hired by government agencies to provide pro bono legal services to people who cannot afford lawyers. lawyer.
Such positions are generally held by novices who have just entered the legal field and have no foundation, connections, or talent. In other words, they are generally grassroots (it is not ruled out that some people use this to gild their grassroots).
Many bigwigs in the political or legal circles started out as public defenders. They help disadvantaged groups fight lawsuits for "free" and use government salaries to gain popularity for themselves. This is also the reason why American political elites often One of many reasons for the legal profession.
Well, a certain general who is known for his knowledge of the underworld once served as a public defender - do you feel the potential of this position?
“BOSS, he’s out.”
Eris put down her phone and turned to look outside the car.
A young man wearing a gray suit and a blue striped tie was holding his document bag and standing awkwardly at the door of the Orange Court, looking around in a reserved manner.
Gently touching his beard, Eris whispered.
“Bring him here and be gentle, okay?”
Soon, Fidel Lopez was brought to Eris’ car, and the young man watched nervously He knew that most people couldn't afford this extended version of the big car.
The car door opened, Eris smiled and stretched out his hand, motioning for Fidel to come in.
"Okay, it's you, let's sit down and talk."
Fidel didn't understand why such a big shot would come to see him, but he knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Hello, I am Fidel Lopez, a partner at the Decavo Law Firm, if you have any legal questions."
Eris is not interested in hearing this little A lawyer's boast, he said directly.
"Your brother, no, to be precise, it was my sister who introduced you to me, Fidel. She said you were a good person and very suitable for politics, um, so I came."
Fidel's younger brother did not do well in high school, so he changed his gender and went to college as a sexual minority. He is now studying at the University of California, Irvine.
When Chengdu split up MAS for the future development of OC, as a contracted influencer of MAS, she was packaged into a newly established company that only signed left-wing influencers.
Now, Eris took over the company and began to expand the city and land for Chengdu in new areas.
So, under the introduction of Fidel’s brother (or sister), Eris came here.
“You can call me Eris, Fidel, and I want to sponsor your campaign for County Councilor in Orange. Of course, if you are confident enough, you can start directly as City Councilor in Saint-Lo, it’s up to you! ”
Fidel Lopez is a Hispanic. He never thought that such a situation would appear in his life - that brother Shabi actually introduced him to such a big shot. This is ridiculous.
"Mr. Eris, my mind is a little confused. Can I understand whether you are an Elephant Party member or a Donkey Party member?"
Fidel asked incoherently, his question Amused Eris.
“Listen, Fidel, I don’t belong to either party. To the average voter, there are two opposing parties in America, but to someone like me, both parties are the same. , the point is how many congressmen can I let speak for me?”
This is very politically incorrect and outrageous, but Fidel actually felt an inexplicable sense of relief.
It turns out that there really is a deep state, it turns out that there are really rich people buying congressmen, it turns out that American democracy is really a joke - but these have nothing to do with him. He knows one thing deeply, that is, his opportunity has come.
There are tens of thousands of public defenders in the United States, and most of them can only work at the bottom of the judicial profession throughout their lives. The law school Fidel went to is not well-known, and his so-called partner status is even more of a joke.
Between selling his soul and maintaining his identity as a low-level person, it only took him a second to make a decision.
"How can I serve you? I mean, I'm worried that my ability cannot bear the expectations you have of me."
The young man's sense of proportion satisfied him very much. , Eris laughed.
"Ha, kid, let's start by running for the St. Lo City Councilor. The position of County Councilor is too irrelevant. In politics, the most useless evaluation criterion is ability.
Just I need to confirm one thing, Can you accept speaking up for sexual minorities and other disadvantaged groups and becoming their representative?”
His eyes became sharp and he stared at Fidel closely.
As someone who was already considered a boss in the strict sense, the pressure exerted by Eris almost crushed this lucky young man.
People always expect God or something else to take care of them and get some huge opportunities, changes, etc., but this kind of gift is extremely special.
Anyone with a little bit of brain knows that when someone gives you huge benefits, you have to bear responsibilities corresponding to the benefits, or even responsibilities that far exceed the share of benefits - because some people have become giants by evading responsibilities again and again. .
“I think I can do it, Mr. Eris, and I will cherish the opportunity you give me.”
Up to this moment, Fidel does not know the specific identity of Eris. , but he chose to win to the end and offer his loyalty first. This is a very clever game strategy. Even if most people face similar opportunities, they may miss them due to lack of such a clear understanding of the stakes.
“It’s just.” Fidel hesitated to ask.
“Say, we’ll visit your house later, Fidel. This is also part of the inspection. You haven’t passed the test yet, so you can speak freely. We still have more to talk about.”
Eris leaned back in the chair and continued to look at her phone, while casually dealing with the nervous young man beside her.
“Should I run as a Donkey Party member? I am now a registered Elephant Party member, will this have any impact?”
“Child, you think too highly of yourself. , and I never said that I was a sponsor of the Donkey Party. Progressives and disadvantaged groups can have a diverse group of agents, and the large-scale Donkey Party is not as representative as you think.”
< br>Eris seemed to have thought of something. He turned his head and spoke to Fidel quietly.
“You can’t imagine what a great opportunity you have, Field. Those old-school establishment elites will not accept small roles like you, and those radical leftists will not accept people like you. Party members, as for the Elephant Party, your chances are almost zero, the Elephant Party in Saint-Loduo, hahahaha.”
In the eyes of this young lawyer, big guys like Eris are already the highest-level figures he has ever come into contact with in his life.
In order to appear smarter, he summoned up the courage to ask.
"What happened to the Elephant Party in San Luodu? I noticed that there seemed to be some rumors that something terrible happened. Is this true?"
The former West Coast Chaser Dream Boy was touched by this question. Something did happen in Saint Luodu. For example, his dream died.
“That’s not a rumor. In short, you are a lucky person, luckier than me when I was young. You started on the best path ignorantly. I envy you very much.
< br>
By the way, from now on, you have to have a good relationship with your sister. Pay attention, it is your sister. You have to have a good relationship with her. She is not as stupid as you think. If you want to enter politics, you must have a good entry point. You and your sister The relationship between them is a good starting point. "
Fidel seemed to hear a bit of loneliness from Eris's words, which made him laugh at himself.
How could such a big man feel lonely?
I must have thought too much.
Eris now has the life he dreamed of before. He has become the real king of Saint Luodu, the king of the underground, the king of darkness. He can easily change a person. Destiny, he has never been in such close contact with power.
No, he was shaping power now.
But all this is different from what he thought. He has lost his freedom, self, and the ideal he insisted on when he set out.
He climbed through the Tower of Babel in America, and then was tied around the neck.
“I understand, Mr. Eris, am I registered to run as an Elephant Party member?”
Fidel still didn’t quite understand, and said he understood. , but still not sure.
"Hahaha, no, you will be a donkey gang member from now on, kid."
As if thinking of something happy, Eris started to laugh again, so hard that he couldn't even close his mouth.
He never thought that one day he would become someone who could cause trouble for Niu Sen. This was amazing.
You, Niu Sen, are the California Shepherd and the core figure of the California Gang, but somewhere you don’t know, I am quietly digging a big hole for you.
Thinking of this, he looked at Fidel and said in a serious tone.
"By the way, you have to remember one thing, you are a member of the Donkey Party, but you are even more mine. The latter is more important than the former, because I am your leader.
I can take you Taking this path can also kick you off this path, and if you make things too ugly, your family will leave this world with you.
Don't betray me, ever." br>
A naked threat, these words of Eris were so explicit that they instantly melted Fidel’s inner fire like ice and snow.
He wants to make a fool of himself, and make a fool of himself for a long time. This is his job.
Only if he is bad enough will President Cheng be able to show mercy - Eris is much more loyal now than before.
"Can I withdraw from this? This is different from what I thought, Mr. Eris, this is different from what I thought. I can pretend that I heard nothing and knew nothing."
Fidel cannot understand this explicit cruelty. He is very smart and a clever young man, but after all, he grew up in the outrageous and humorous post-modern liberal culture of the United States. He cannot accept it. Such horrible rules.
“This is your first lesson, gifts come with a price, kid.”
Eris grew up in the era just after the Cold War. He understands the fragility of American millennials, but He won't show mercy - not because he's indifferent, but because everyone has to.
In a collapsing world, no one can survive alone as long as they still want to make a difference.
"Mr. Eris, who are you and what do you do?"
Fidel asked tremblingly. He began to regret his recklessness and regretted it extremely.
Sometimes, the bicycle will not only turn into a motorcycle, but the motorcycle will also be hit by a time bomb.
“You don’t understand anything. You don’t understand American politics, you don’t understand the people in California, and you don’t understand San Luodu.
But, kid, remember, when you truly understand who I am, you have to remember one thing. In fact, I am just a little person running errands for others. ”
In terms of relative strength ranking, Eris is not as good as Jax, Jax is not as good as Gru, Gru is not as good as Cheng Daqi, Cheng Daqi is not as good as Wolf, and Wolf is not as good as Ah. Achilles, the seemingly incomparable, is inferior to some truly indescribable people.
That is the tragedy of the wise man, as Fidel understands Eris' threat.
Recklessness is closer to bravery than cowardice, but the caution of smart people will stop them from moving forward.
In fact, it is okay for him to run away now. Eris will not kill him for this, this agent. It's very clear - only by making things look ugly can you enjoy the service of "Family Drawing List"
But people who are too smart are easy to invest in. From Master Qian who dislikes the cold water, to Marshal Bei who 'sacrifice himself for the country', they are actually the same thing.
"I understand, Mr. Eris, I understand."
In the tension, Field himself didn't know what to say.
Even big guys like Eris, who are accompanied by bodyguards and have police cars to clear the way when traveling, are just small figures. This is actually more like a horror story.
He thought of Eris's words, 'You don't understand America, you don't understand California, you don't understand San Luodu'. Yes, he is just a young lawyer from a civilian family. His biggest opportunity is to meet I found a reliable high school teacher and was admitted to law school.
Field sat beside Eris in a daze. He could see the driver chewing gum, but the person in the passenger seat was wiping his pistol.
Why didn’t I see it just now? What bothered him wasn't that he didn't see the danger.
When he met the beautiful branch favored by fate, he thought he had no hesitation and risked everything. But after Eris made the explicit threat, Fidel realized that different people Everything is different in my eyes.
“Fake!” Eris cursed, and everyone in the car was shocked by him.
Fidel saw the person in the passenger seat picking up a gun, and he spoke with difficulty.
"I"
"Shut up, it has nothing to do with you, I lost forty million dollars!"
Eris scratched his hair a little manically. Can't understand why BEC collapsed.
Fidel did not dare to speak. Forty million dollars is money that 99.99% of Americans will never earn in their lifetime.
A loss of 40 million dollars probably means an investment loss, and this cannot be all of Eris' assets.
This mysterious boss is at least a billionaire.
"Hahaha, it's okay, hahahahaha."
Eris was smiling gloomily just now, but now she has a bit of a nervous tone, which made other people in the car feel nervous. numb.
"Boss, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I only lost 40 million, what should I be afraid of!"
Eris smiled more and more happily. He was no longer worried about the loss of cryptocurrency at all.
What are you afraid of? That beast Cheng Daqi will lose more. This kind of flash crash is obviously being sniped!
Let you go crazy, let you jump, let you fuck me, let you control me!
How about it, retribution is coming, right?
People are doing it, God is watching!
Chan, let me see how you clean up this mess!
Not to mention why Eris, the villain who succeeded, laughed, Fidel was really convinced.
Some people want to jump off a building after losing several million, and some people can still smile happily after losing 40 million. Sure enough, is this the world of the boss?
Actually, Eris smiled simply because he thought about it. He lost 40 million, Cheng Daqi lost more, and Cheng Daqi's partners would also lose.
The troubles ahead and behind, Cheng Daqi will be ugly next, thinking of these, Eris couldn't help but want to laugh.
——
In the evening, the fat boy of the Crusoe family and the head of the Eris family sat together again.
Keep drinking.
While working under Mr. Cheng, they had not even had a few bites, but today they were beaten up in BEC.
They were bitter in their hearts, but they were more or less gloating as if they were watching from afar.
So, the two of us had a great time drinking this little drink.
“I invested 800,000 dollars, and all my positions were wiped out. Eris, cryptocurrency is unreliable!”
The fat man still didn’t consult CEO Cheng. As a friend to Mr. Cheng, he deserves to be liquidated by Mr. Cheng’s tricks.
Whenever he regards Cheng Daqi as a friend and asks him, Cheng Daqi will ask him to place a short order.
"It's not that cryptocurrency is unreliable, but that BEC is unreliable. The market value is too fictitious and has no value at all. We invited a bunch of experts to brag about it and invited state animal husbandry platforms, all for the sake of speculation."
E Reese has been playing cryptocurrency before, and although he lost a lot of money, he still had some fun.
"If you ask me, it has to be Ethereum and Bitcoin, these two are the hardest, BEC, even dogs don't buy it!"
"By the way, how much did you lose?" Mo filled Eris and asked.
“Forty million, damn, I feel so uncomfortable!”
After Eris finished speaking, she noticed that Thomas was looking at him with an embarrassed expression.
Broken!
Last time I just said I earned a car, this time I said I lost 40 million.
One of them is obviously fake, so.
“Hahaha, I lost four million. That’s really a lot. Hey, it’s okay. Just don’t touch cryptocurrency in the future. .”
What does it mean to look like a pig but have an open heart?
The two cousin brothers clinked glasses again, but Eris' cell phone rang, and Dormer noticed the name on the caller ID.
“Chan.”
Eris hurriedly picked it up and was about to pick it up. By some strange coincidence, he looked up at Domo and found that the fat young man was looking at him silently.
He felt that what he did to deceive the fat young man was a bit unethical. Thomas was actually a good person, the only good person among a group of beasts.
Eris hesitated, turned on the speakerphone, and answered the phone.
The former West Coast dream boy is gone, he is now a humble worker. In Cheng Daqi's 'company', he needs an 'ally' - it may not be of much use, but at least If you have to, you can't do it alone.
Thomas understood, and he silently poured another glass of wine for Eris.
What can he do? Eris has shown his sincerity, so the fat young man can only choose to forgive.
The Crusoe family joined Mr. Cheng’s small camp, but the beasts in the camp became more and more inhumane.
Wolfe was too big and was in direct competition with Crusoe Sr. The father and son analyzed Xu Jiuchengdaqi's intention to bring them into the game and realized that they must not get too close to Wolfe, otherwise they would lose their value. .
Gru, um, does Gru look like a beast that can be trusted?
After choosing and choosing, Old Crusoe and the Fat Young Master could only choose to get closer to Eris, whom they had looked down on in the past and were a little afraid of.
At first, Old Crusoe felt that Eris Sabi was using Eris as a scapegoat who took MAGA resources but did nothing. Thomas even reminded Mr. Cheng to be careful of this poisonous snake. '.
Looking at it now, ha, I can only say that fate is too unpredictable and ruthless, and it does not depend on anyone's will.
"Eris, I transferred 30 million into your account in the Bahamas. You lost a lot today. This amount of money should be able to make up for your losses. For this cash out, I transferred money one by one according to your share. , in order to avoid leaking the information in advance and being exploited by others.
Don’t worry about the floating losses in your account. You didn’t pay a penny at the beginning. By the way, 30 million was actually a bit more. Even if it's your activity fund.
I won't let my subordinates spend their own money to work. You should pay attention to the things I assigned you. Also, send Chen Zihao's family to the Bahamas to appease him. , can you do it?"
Cheng Daqi hung up without waiting for an answer. He believed that Eris couldn't even do this little thing.
But on the phone, Eris was embarrassed, and the fat young man was even more silent.
Well, Eris, you said you earned a car last time.
Tell me, what car is worth tens of millions of dollars?
On the surface, the relationship between brothers hit rock bottom and was on the verge of breaking up after Mr. Cheng’s phone call. Eris took a deep breath, secretly cursed Cao Dan’s world, and said with a wry smile.
“You heard it too, I don’t know anything, he didn’t even say hello to me when he cashed out, and he didn’t say hello to Gru either”
To be honest, Eris felt that she was a bit of a clown, no, extremely clown.
Before, he was secretly happy because he thought that Cheng Daqi would lose even more miserably.
But now?
He actually bought a lot in addition to the 'remuneration' allocated to him by Cheng Daqi. This time they were all liquidated, so there was a difference between 40 million and 30 million. .
If you are an ordinary person, you may think this is a coincidence.
But what Eris thought was that Cheng Daqi suddenly started attacking without saying hello to anyone, which would be more or less 'malicious'.
The result now is that even though President Cheng gave the money, Eris still lost money.
Why?
Because I bought a lot more secretly behind Mr. Cheng’s back.
The more Eris thinks about these things, the more painful she becomes.
Why are you so calculating?
"Fortunately, as long as there is no loss, so you and Gru both participated in BEC? Could it be that you are also in LCE?"
Faced with Domo's temptation, Eris nodded in agreement.
Even if things are already so embarrassing, he still wants to continue to maintain some kind of mutual trust and tacit understanding with the Crusoe father and son.
They are the two weakest parties in the total power, which is the natural basis for cooperation.
“It’s hard to talk about this, but you guessed it right, but I still lost more than 10 million, hey.”
The fat young man comforted.
"It can't be calculated like this. A floating profit is not a surplus. Chan gave you 30 million anyway. Come on, drink."
Eris really felt miserable in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more miserable she became. That kind of bitterness.
A total of 40 million!
Chan, did you do this on purpose?
Yes, it must be!
Born, isn’t this just a pure birth!
"Domo, your family didn't invest any money in BEC, and you won't have any share in the money distribution this time. This is unreasonable.
You can ask Chan and let him reveal Let’s talk about what will happen to BEC in the future, and we will buy together when the time comes.”
Why are we together? Isn’t it just for now?
There is no difference between Eris asking and Thomas asking about the same thing.
"I don't dare to touch it anymore. I lost 800,000 dollars this time, which is too much." The fat young man was embarrassed.
Eris cursed inwardly.
I lost 40 million and you told me it was okay and I made a profit. You lost 800,000 and you said too much.
Did you do this on purpose?
The unlucky guy was so anxious that he didn't like anyone. The fat boy was so shocked by Eris's eyes that he thought he had sudden rabies.
"Okay, then I'll go and ask, but I need to wait a few days."
The fat young man changed his mind and decided to be more sincere.
The friendship between these two people has been a bit awkward from the beginning. Nonsense, the prison is so small, they get along with each other every day, eat, drink and have sex together, how can it not be awkward?
Even though they were so embarrassed, the two of them still got together. Why?
Mr. Cheng is so smart!
Under a smart leader, it’s impossible not to sign up for the group. Of course, it’s not OK to be too tight, and it’s even worse to choose the wrong person.
“Hey, I know a good club. The girls there are very lively, but it’s too boring for me to go there alone. It just so happens that you are here today, how about it?”
Eristo He is a capable person. He used to make his fortune by solving all kinds of troubles, so he understands that the bad blood between the two of them due to various accidents must be resolved tonight!
What to do?
We are all men, so let’s go to the women’s ticket together!
This is popular in the United States. In order to be accepted by the California gang, Gru always accompanied Gwell.
"Huh? Mr. Eris, here, I just got engaged recently."
"Having meat? Okay, I will take you to eat meat tonight!"
