Blackstone Code

At around seven o'clock in the night, the assistant director had a phone call with the director after finishing his whole day's work, and reported on the situation here.

Challenging is not an easy thing, but once you start, you won’t stop.

After ending the phone call, he sat in the office for a while before leaving.

Instead of driving directly home, he went to a fast food restaurant.

His wife and children would have almost finished dinner by now, and there was no doubt that they had left him with nothing good.

Everyone has their own troubles. No one in this world can truly be carefree. As long as you are human, there will always be things you cannot do.

The Assistant Director also has his own troubles. His crazy climb over the years has indeed allowed him to climb to a high position.

According to the system of the Federal Tax Service, the next step is for him to be transferred to a relatively remote state to serve as the director of the state tax bureau, or to be transferred to a regional tax center to serve as the head of a certain department.

No matter what kind of transfer it is, it is a huge progress for him. The power in his hands will be expanded to another level, and his social and political status will also be significantly improved.

It is actually very difficult to achieve this level in your forties. It requires not only some background and friendship with some people, but also real abilities.

But even so, sometimes he would envy or even be jealous of those women, especially those beautiful women.

As long as they can take off their clothes, find a place to lie down, and put their legs on each other's shoulders without being embarrassed in front of the superior, they can get a good job and have power.

For example, at Huake Tax Center, which is also the tax center for the central region of the federation, one of the directors of this tax center is a woman in her thirties. Everyone knows how she climbed to that position.

Looking at himself again, he felt bad about all kinds of heavy work, having to offend other people all the time for the director, accidentally ruining his career, and even messing up his family. .

The relationship between him and his wife is not good. Because he and his wife spend many years running around at work, he and his wife are more like two independent residents in the same house, only maintaining the name of "family" on the surface.

They had slept in separate rooms for a long time, and sometimes he wouldn't see his wife for a week. Even though they lived together, when he got up in the morning, she had already gone out to exercise, and when he came home in the evening, she returned to his room early. in the room.

Not only that, he also knew that his wife had an ambiguous relationship with her fitness instructor, but what could he say?

There are gains and losses. He lost the sweetness of his family in exchange for growing power. This was his own choice.

Parking the car outside the fast food restaurant, he ordered his usual fast food, added a piece of roasted corn, and returned to the car after picking up the meal.

Looking at the fragrant and delicious food on the plate, he rubbed his hands, with a smile on his face, and was thinking, "Where should I start eating?"

At this moment, he suddenly glanced at the rearview mirror subconsciously, and then every hair on his body stood up. He trembled suddenly as if he was greatly frightened, and reached out towards the co-pilot. Touch the storage box.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you..."

The voice from the back seat was young and gentle.

The Assistant Director's movements stopped there. He slowly retracted his hand. His panic quickly cooled down. He sat upright again and looked at the messy dinner plate. He was not sure whether the people behind him could see it. Still holding his shirt and shaking it, "I have to clean up my clothes..."

This is a perfect era, there are no pagers, no cell phones, no micro signal transmitters, no one needs to worry about big trouble caused by a small movement of someone's hand.

"You'd better keep your hands on the steering wheel. I'm afraid I might misunderstand your behavior. You know, when people are nervous, they tend to do stupid things."

Although there is no threat from Chiguoguo in this sentence, both the speaker and the listener know what this sentence implies.

The assistant director could only slowly put his hands on the steering wheel so that the guy behind could see it.

It was getting very late at this time, around seven o'clock and close to eight o'clock. The headlights in the car were not turned on, and it was impossible to illuminate the parking lot of the fast food restaurant with headlights. In the dim shadows, the assistant director could only look through the rear view. The mirror saw a blurry outline.

At this time, his mood was much calmer than before, and he began to think of ways to solve his current predicament, "If you need money, I have my wallet in my right pocket, which contains more than a hundred dollars in cash. I have my cash checkbook in the side jacket pocket and you can write a check for two thousand dollars, that's the full limit."

As he spoke, he glanced at the ring on his finger and paused for about four or five seconds. "My ring is a wedding ring. It's not worth much. I hope you can keep it to me."

"You're wrong, I don't want money, I just want to chat with you."

"What to talk about?"

"Let's talk about the person who can persuade you."

The Assistant Director shook his head, "I don't quite understand what you mean, sir." He paused and said, "What should I call you?"

He wanted to find out who the guy hiding in the shadows was. In this environment, even if he chose a random name, it would be meaningful.

Many people often make a habitual choice instinctively or subconsciously when faced with the need to choose an answer quickly.

This is like a guy whose girlfriend he just broke up with is a blond girl. When he faces choosing a girlfriend again, he will most likely avoid the blond girl (avoidance hurts psychology. It can heal itself), but there is also a certain probability that he will avoid the blond girl. He will continue to choose blond girls as his girlfriend (a certain degree of psychological problem that may not be cured on his own).

As for the specific analysis, we need to combine some more questions. This is just the first question he raised. He will ask other questions later to make a judgment based on this question, so as to lock this person.

What he didn't expect was that the guy behind him didn't seem to intend to hide his identity.

"You can call me Lynch, you can also call me boy, Mr. Billionaire and other nicknames, but I personally don't like it very much. I like others to call me Mr. Lynch." Lynch chose to tell the truth without hesitation. The Assistant Director's thinking paused temporarily for a while.

He never expected that Lynch would reveal his identity just like that. Didn't he know that doing so would bring him a lot of trouble?

"You seem surprised, sir." Lynch said and laughed. His laughter was not nervous at all, just as bright as a normal conversation.

The Assistant Director calmed down completely, "You have broken the law, Mr. Lynch."

"Breaking the law?" Lynch burst out laughing after hearing this, "Did you take the concept of 'breaking the law' too lightly?"

"We were just sitting and chatting, not breaking any laws. I was passing by and saw your car door open. In order to prevent you from losing money, I sat in the back seat of the car and looked at the car for you for a while."

"I believe that even in the federal Supreme Court, no one will think that I am a thief or want to do anything. You are exaggerating."

The assistant director remained silent and stopped talking. In fact, what Lynch said was right. Even if a police officer passed by now, he could not accuse Lynch of anything.

First of all, Lynch has nothing to do with his work, and there is no stake.

The tax bureau was indeed entrusted by some people to bring down Lynch, but the problem was that everything was in trouble just from the beginning. It would be difficult to bring Lynch in unless Old Fox bites Lynch.

He was not brought in, and him sitting in the car now is an isolated incident. No judge will support an isolated and difficult-to-characterize incident without any evidence and stakes, just because there is no injury or loss. It's something that can't even be called a case, to punish an influential celebrity in society.

He could only remain silent and wait for Lynch to say more.

"There is a saying, 'One collision in the battle of gods can destroy a world.' This sentence means that the battle between gods can destroy all things just by the aftermath of the collision."

"I don't want you to be my enemy, nor do I want anyone who doesn't have a direct stake in me to be my enemy. This is actually unfair to you."

"You don't need to take on responsibilities that you can't bear for a certain person or me because of conflicts and disputes between me and others. This is not brave, Mr. Director!"

"In the history of the federation, more than one president died in an accident, and more dignitaries and celebrities died inexplicably. Accidents happen every day. They happened around me, and they may happen around you."

"When the president dies, people will spontaneously mourn for him. When people like you and me die, who will grieve for us?"

"Don't do things that you will regret. This is my experience and my advice."

"I just want to know who the person who delivered the message to you is. This is between me and him!"

Lynch said as he put a complete pure color on the passenger seat. The assistant director saw his action and he also knew the iron box. After all, only a handful of people in the entire federation can own pure gold.

He already understood what Lynch meant, and after a moment of silence, he said a name.

What Lynch said is actually correct. This kind of thing itself is very offensive, and even if Lynch is caught, he will be able to come out in three to five years at most.

Don’t underestimate the power of the rich. Even if the court gives them a severe sentence, they can find connections at any time and in various ways to leave prison and serve their sentence outside of prison.

Will he take revenge when he comes out?

No one dares to bet that if he is so rich, countless people in this world will do crazy things for his money.

There are some things people can afford to lose.

Some cannot afford to lose.
