At noon, Evan sat on a bench in the small garden, the sun shining on his body.

Next to him sat a bronzed, short-haired man in a black suit.

The two of them each held a sandwich in their hands, eating and chatting as they ate.

Needless to say, the man was one of Colin's comrades-in-arms.

Accepting Colin's suggestion, there are three comrades who come to Evan to defect, and the one in front of him is named Bob Wheeler.

Bob is a native of Lodi, California. Located in California's Central Valley region, Loday is known for growing grapes and is a traditional agricultural city. Bob's family had a vineyard, but after taking off his military uniform, he didn't want to go back to the fields to be a farmer, so he moved to Los Angeles and became a member of the newly formed SHIELD, which is now responsible for Evan's personal safety.

Bob had been with Evan for over a week, and Evan had some insight into his temperament.

"Bob, why don't you take your retirement money and go to college?" asked Evan.

According to the Roosevelt-era GI Bill of Rights, Bob not only received a large amount of retirement benefits, but also many preferential policies for college. Because of this act, American universities are now flooded with World War II veterans. This is especially true of Caltech, which has excellent relations with the U.S. military. This group of soldiers who went through university studies was huge, and later became the pillars of all walks of life and the main force driving the economy, and was called the "greatest generation".

Bob's answer left Evan speechless.

"The head is too stupid...... Can't learn...... I don't know what to learn. ”

Bob paused three times.

"Isn't it too boring to be around me?"

"Yes!"

"Why don't you find something to do for yourself, even if you don't go to school, you can read a book by yourself!"

"I'm sick of books!"

Evan glanced at All Select Comic magazine (note: this is a comic magazine from Marvel's predecessor, Time Comics), which Bob had placed in his chair, and silently put the last bit of sandwich in his mouth.

……

Time flies, and it's election month for another year.

In the last minute of November, the fiercely contested candidates used all sorts of tactics to canvass for votes and campaign ads.

Of course, this is the work of a hopeful candidate or someone who is not running for the sake of the election.

For example, William Naik, the seventy-year-old man who stepped onto the campaign stage in order to save the "Holy City" and aspired to become a living sign.

And for Charles Lyon, who has a single-digit vote in the polls, this year's election is over. Now he has before him not the question of whether he can continue his political career, but the question of where he will live next.

Whether it's a full return to the luxury villa of Beverly Hills in Los Angeles, or the luxury studio of the prison.

Charles needs to be calm and looking forward to a good outcome.

Of course, he knew very well in his heart that the result had little to do with him.

……

On Sunday, November 3, Evan and Virginia, who had just finished their midterm exams, rushed back to Sacramento.

The polling day is two days later, November 5th, and as a child, I can't be absent.

This time Audrey didn't go back with her - she was going to an interview.

Mr. Abbott's "High Heels of Buttons" has finally entered the preparatory stage, two months after he extended his invitation to Audrey.

Back at the residence, Evan gave Bob and Ray Haynes a message to him. Haynes) took two days off.

It was Bob who drove the way.

And Haynes is the strong man Evan sent to Virginia to be in charge of security.

He worked in the army to carry artillery shells, and his arms were thicker than the average man's thigh.

With such a "fierce and vicious" being standing behind Virginia, it is no wonder that no fly dares to approach her again.

On the fourth, Evan went on a trip to Magic7. He stayed there for only an hour before leaving.

Magic7 is still thriving, and there's not much to say.

However, when leaving, Jean Leon got into Evan's car.

In the car, Leon told Evan that "the workers are all on the same page, the governor's ticket is Mr. Warren's, the lieutenant governor's ticket is Mr. Knight's, and the city of North Sacramento is ......."

Evan asked, "How do you do it in a way that doesn't offend the workers?"

Leon assured: "No, in fact this is the choice of most people who are willing to vote, I just mobilized those who are not willing to vote." ”

Evan patted him on the shoulder and affirmed, "Okay, thank you for your hard work!"

"This is what I'm supposed to do!" Leon replied, looking down.

Elections, votes are the key, and a little more is a little more.

Evan couldn't do much, except for Leon's side, he also instructed Carl to do some minor work.

Although judging from the current situation, Evan's actions are just icing on the cake, and he is expected to be criticized if Earl knows about it, but he doesn't care at all.

At the table that night, Earl's seat was empty.

Warren didn't return from the campaign office until nine o'clock.

In the past, a few small ones were driven back to their rooms to sleep by Nina at this time, but today is an exception.

The family played Evan in the living room and waited for the head of the family to return.

Hearing the movement, Dora was the first to jump up from the ground, followed by Dorothy.

"Dad!" Dora took the coat from Earl's hand.

"Daddy!" Dorothy took the hat.

Earl walked into the living room and touched Nina's cheek intimately and pecked her.

Virginia helped the twins hang their coats and hats on the hangers.

Robert stood reservedly beside Evan.

Evan smiled and asked when Earle's eyes moved to him, "Earle, how is the situation, do you need me to prepare a house in advance or clean the old house in Oakland?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was knocked on the head by Virginia.

Evan glanced back at Virginia with a resentful look in his eyes and said, "Virginia, obviously, I'm joking!"

Virginia replied with a complacent look, "Obviously, I know!"

Robert and Dora, who were next to them, both snickered.

Earl sat down on the couch, hugged Dorothy in his arms, looked at Evan and smiled, "Thank you for your kindness." ”

"But we'll have to wait four years for the new house. Anyway, I won't need it for the time being. ”

"Of course, if you take it as a gift for the twenty-first anniversary, Nina and I will not refuse. ”

Earl, who has always been serious, made a rare joke in front of the children.

The next day, voting began.

That night, the results came in, and Earl Warren defeated James Roosevelt, Robert Kenny and other candidates with more than 90% of the vote, and was re-elected governor without any suspense.

Meanwhile, Goodwin Knight was elected lieutenant governor.

In Congress, the Republican Party successfully turned around, adding 55 seats to win a majority in the House of Representatives, while 11 new seats won a majority in the Senate.

Among the many new faces in Congress, Evan has a special impression of two people, one is Rep. Richard Nixon from California, and the other is Senator Joseph McCarthy from Wisconsin.
