"Burns, don't worry, it's just a temporary administrative leave. Those media and reporters are all wild dogs that gathered together because of the smell.
We, the LAPD, have our own independence. How can we deal with you just because of a few unfounded words from reporters and media? ”
Lake was telling the truth, as if he had placed Burns on administrative leave solely to protect his subordinate.
Faced with being fooled by his boss, the client, Burns, said.
"Someone at those hospitals may have tipped off the news to the media, Sheriff, administrative leave won't solve the problem."
No matter what you say, you are just arranging for me to hide from the limelight. You have no intention of helping me at all.
This won't work!
When I charged, I charged and I was loyal.
Now they want to send me away with just a few words and an administrative leave, asking me to take over the blame, but I won’t accept it!
Burns will never accept slow death!
"Don't worry, they have no evidence. It's been so many days, and those unknown corpses have no names. How can they still be blamed on us?"
Lake was just playing dumb, but there wasn't really anything the Sheriff could do.
If there is someone pushing behind the situation, any direct intervention by him will bring risks to himself, making it difficult to end the situation in the future.
If there is no push behind it, Burns' administrative leave will just be administrative leave, and he can be reinstated when the limelight passes.
For Lake, it is worthwhile to temporarily sacrifice Burns in exchange for his own initiative, or to prevent himself from falling into passivity.
"This matter is probably related to Gru's people. There was a problem with the tip we received at the beginning. The subsequent handling was very careful and confidential. It is impossible for insiders to know so much inside information.
Mr. Sheriff, I can accept administrative leave, but this matter will never end so easily. What should I do if Gru's people are pestering me behind the scenes and handing knives to the media? ”
Seeing that Lake was unwilling to help him, Burns stopped pretending.
Dude, don't make me your enemy!
"Hahaha, Burns, Gru is already in the past tense. It's not like you don't know the situation of Xizhou Logistics. He has too much time to take care of himself now and may be arrested tomorrow!"
This complex game has developed to this day, and everyone is affected by the whole thing.
Lake didn't believe that Gru had the guts to find trouble for himself while Xizhou Logistics was being tortured by CNN and couldn't take care of himself.
"You mean, you want to arrest Gru?" Burns was a little overjoyed.
Gru, this bitch, had been a stumbling block for him during the BEC case, and now he was suspected of being the man behind the scenes delivering knives to the media. If Lake could make up his mind to catch Gru, everything would be easy to solve.
When Gru is under control in prison, why do you want him to take the blame?
What, you mean the law?
Ha, this kind of thing where you laugh at me is not original. In any country, law is just a tool, a tool of rule.
Who rules, who controls!
"I'm thinking that one Thomas is not enough. It's time to resolve the issue of the Bai Dao gang."
Lake replied solemnly, and as he spoke, he added to comfort Burns.
"Burns, you are a very good police officer, don't worry, I will protect you!"
Nonsense.
How dare he touch Gru? Garcetti hasn't made up his mind yet, and Niusen must protect Gru.
Touching Thomas was already the limit of Lake's courage.
The people above haven't decided the winner yet, and no matter how Shabi he is, Lake doesn't dare to cross the line and make any extraordinary moves.
Faced with Lake's continued cajoling, Burns said nothing.
He was thinking about how to continue the conversation.
"Dong dong dong~" Someone knocked on the door.
"Come in!" shouted Mr. Sheriff.
"Sir, the mayor please come over."
The Sheriff looked at Burns, smiled and said in an apologetic tone.
"Burns, let's go here today and go back and have a good rest."
The person involved did not answer, nor did he get up from his position. He just leaned on the chair and stroked his chin with one hand, looking thoughtful.
"As you please."
After Lake said this, he stood up and left.
The mayor called and he had to rush there in time.
——
Imagine that you are a middle-aged man who was dumped by your boss after a day at work. You return to your warm home with a chill in your heart, intending to use the warmth of family to recharge your tired heart that has been ravaged by reality.
You stopped the car. The family puppy didn't bark today, but you didn't notice.
Open the door and everything is as usual.
Under the cross on the wall is a TV, and the TV is playing the program that your grandma loves to watch - your grandma is ninety years old, but she still loves to watch male models.
Although you are not satisfied, as grandma's favorite grandson, you can only accept this kind of thing with a smile.
Finding that grandma was not sitting on the old sofa from the 1950s, you called out to your dear grandma twice, but she didn't answer.
Realizing something is wrong, you realize that the dog cage is empty.
You quickly took out the hidden black gun from the secret compartment at the door and carefully checked your home.
My daughter is not here.
The wife is not here.
Grandma is not here.
Your heart sinks, sinks, into the endless abyss.
You want to call for help, but your years of experience and reason remind you - it's useless.
In the master bedroom, you see your dog.
Its head was brutally cut off, its limbs were dismembered, and it was placed on your bed like a sacrifice.
Burns knelt down weakly.
All worries became reality at this moment.
Lake is unreliable, and politicians like Garcetti will not pay even the slightest attention to the fate of a police officer.
He became the price and a breakthrough in Gru's eyes.
Burns knew what kind of decision he faced next.
Either take the blame for Lake, or turn into a sword and stab Lake in the back for Gru.
In front of the organized criminal network composed of black police, he is like a clay figure who can only be kneaded at will.
The empire is in decline, but some special groups gain power beyond the rules from the decline.
Now, groups outside these rules have moved the dispute to Burns, a young police officer.
The olive branch Lake handed to Burns was like a blessing from above.
Burns grabbed it without hesitation, now is the time for him to pay the price after failure!
The mercy of a noble person may not necessarily be luck, but may also be the devastation of fate that cannot be resisted.
The phone rang, and Burns crawled to the bedside on his knees and picked up the unfamiliar mobile phone.
"Hey Burns, it's me."
Gru's voice was a bit teasing, and he directly talked to Burns on the phone so blatantly.
Crazy, but he is indeed qualified to be crazy.
On a specific level of contradiction, Gru is deeply involved in the chaos surrounding the LAPD. But this contradiction itself, with the establishment and participation of the California Elephant Party, has become part of the California Elephant Party's plan to compete for power in San Loduo and control administrative power in the United States.
Gru is no longer just Gru. He is now a part of the deep state and the tentacles of careerists.
"How are they?" Burns asked anxiously.
Gru was too lazy to answer such stupid questions. He chose to enjoy the ultimate bad breath first.
"Hahaha, Bourne, Bourne, I have always disliked your hypocrisy.
When I tried to win you over, you said we were unreasonable demons, and you looked down on me and Jax.
In fact, I can understand you. After all, you are a smart person who graduated from a prestigious school. Unlike us, we are weak-legged. ”
Faced with the villain's triumphant Gru, Burns's mood is quite stable.
"The past is in the past. Just tell me what you want me to do!"
The loser wanted a dignified end to the humiliation, but Gru disagreed.
"Before I go, I want to ask you a question - are we unreasonable demons?"
Yes, of course it is.
However, what Gru wants to enjoy is the pleasure of destroying a normal and proud soul.
Because this kind of psychology is widespread, it can't even be called pathological, it can only be described as anthropomorphic.
"No, Mr. Gru, I was too rude. I'm sorry, Mr. Gru, I'm sorry, please, let me go."
It’s not surprising that people always have delusions. After all, who likes to make themselves the price?
cost?
For this pathetic America?
Forget it!
"You want to quit now? It's too late!"
Gru gave the answer cruelly.
"Come and see me. You know where my home is. There is a secret passage in the toilet of the convenience store opposite the branch next to my home. Someone will take you here.
Don't be discovered, I think, with your cleverness, no one will discover you if you want to, right? ”
Burns got up from the ground, closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth.
"I don't want to break the law."
Gru didn't answer, which made Burns a little uneasy.
"Dad! Dad! Help me quickly! What happened in the white van, in the 7th block of South Gate, on the side of the road, hurry up. Hurry up."
Burns' heart was almost broken. Her daughter was controlled by someone, but she still calmly tried to pass on the clues, but those people stopped her.
"Let her say whatever she wants!"
Gru's voice came, but he only showed a fearless attitude, and actually had no intention of letting Burns' daughter continue talking.
After all, Burns is sensible enough.
"So, Bourne, are you willing to fight for your little angel?"
"Gru, God will judge you!"
"God has not protected me, so when will he be qualified to judge me?
We, the weak-legged, can only stand beside you smart people because of our courage to dare to fight.
Bourne, don't let me down, show some responsibility as a father, hahahahaha! ”
Thomas was caught, Jax was suppressed, and Gru had endured his anger for so long, so he needed a hearty counterattack! ——
"I agree, but things need to be in order, Chan. It's already a mess."
"The progress of the private prison project is threatened, Xizhou Logistics is criticized by CNN every day, your car-building plan is struggling to advance, and that bitch Gru is going to cause trouble again."
"Niusen, Garcetti, Nancy, and even Wolfe, the situation we are facing is so complicated, and there is constant pressure from all aspects."
"Now, you want to join forces with others to steal projects from Vanguard and BlackRock. Forum Media Company will cost us at least one billion, right?"
"What is this, a crazy expansion towards death?"
Temir's tone changed from a slightly harsh and urgent tone to a low tone, and she asked seriously.
"Or, you can't stop, Chan?"
Cheng Daqi lay on the massage bed, enjoying the masseuse's massage. When Mi'er asked this question, he answered in a dumbfounded way.
"Of course not. I can stop at any time if I want. It's just a small problem with some specific things now, and it's far from the time to be forced to compromise."
The rich black-haired woman shook her head, thinking that Mr. Cheng was being harsh.
"But what I see is that you get involved in complex games with different people on different sides, and they don't want to lose, so they increase their bets, a lot more.
In order to deal with them, you also choose to increase your stakes, but we cannot face two enemies with the front and the butt at the same time-damn, your enemies are not two!
I don't think you can trust Wolfe to stand behind you, Chan. ”
A chill came from behind, and Mr. Cheng's whole scalp was numb.
The girl's reminder was well-intentioned, but what she said was too scary.
"There are not so many enemies. They are all friends. There are just some minor differences. Don't tell me that you have begun to waver, my dear."
"Just some minor differences"
President Cheng and Nancy had a disagreement, and the price was that the lives of the Burns family were put on the gambling table, and the fate of many people began to fluctuate.
It's a bit like 'your grandpa was petty and willful, but my grandpa starved to death'.
Who says capitalism is bad?
For a crazy capitalist like Mr. Cheng, this is simply paradise, right?
"Shaken? Do you doubt me?"
Tamir put down her cell phone, and she stood up with a sullen expression, waving to signal the masseur who was doing all sorts of things to Mr. Cheng to leave.
"Chan, some of the reminders I once made were unnecessary in hindsight, but I will continue to remind you.
This does not come from an arrogant or judgmental attitude, nor does it mean that I want to manipulate or dominate you. It is just from my heart that I am afraid that you will lose.
We gradually walked towards the stage, and today, if we lose, the price will be too high.
Now, your decision has been kidnapped by Gru, kidnapped by Wolfe, and kidnapped by Nancy.
Things have become a mess, but you still have the energy to massage!
Is this my problem? Can I change the fact that you are being held hostage by them? ”
This is heartbreaking.
"Do you think my decision-making was hijacked by them?"
Cheng Daqi sat up from the massage bed and looked at Mi'er. He was not willing to accept this evaluation.
"Isn't it?"
"OFCOURSE!"
"Chan, don't be so tough. You are too talkative and give them too much, making them mistakenly think that they can negotiate terms with you.
Without you, Wolfe would now be half-dead and suppressed by his father!
Without you, Crusoe would just be an average West Coast tycoon!
Without you, Gru would have died in the shadow of Saint Luodu's sword!
You are so nice to them that they dare to disrespect you so much. ”
"Your uncle, pet them!" 》
