Chapter 2132: The Hero Dying
James doesn't actually refute what Landry says now, but he doesn't support it either. Landry looked at the interests of the whole family, but he didn't. Today's U.S. government is no longer the U.S. government it used to be. The United States' control over the world has dropped a lot. However, the U.S. government is no longer the puppet government that it used to be, and it still needs to look at the faces of the three major chaebol families.
Yes, there are some things that the U.S. government still needs to rely on cooperation with some big families to get it done. But if some families are really ignorant and too ignorant. The U.S. government will never mind doing another purge!
For the influence of the world, after it develops in the future, it is still possible to compete for it back. But if the control of the country is reduced, it will not be so easy to take it back in the future.
This saying is absolutely the most suitable for today's U.S. government.
If Landry continues to insist on going his own way, firmly believing that protecting the family can ensure the long-term stability of the family. So one day, when the Rost family really touches the backlash of the U.S. government, that is when the Rost family will follow in the footsteps of the three major chaebol families.
But that doesn't mean James doesn't care about Landry at all.
The family affection that blood is thicker than water is not so simple, and you can give it up if you want to. Landry's physical condition, although James seems to be unconcerned on the surface.
But in fact, every time Landry came to the doctor to treat his body, James would call the doctor alone and ask the doctor about Landry's physical condition in private. And two years ago, the doctor had already said that if Landry's body wants to heal, I'm afraid only God can do it.
A few months ago, the doctor said that Landry's life was probably only about half a year away. And this time is still the result of optimistic estimates!
James thought he could really do it, and he was not surprised by Landry's physical condition. But when these words came out of Landry's mouth, the inadvertent pain in his heart made James realize that in his heart, the position occupied by Landry was still as important as when he was young.
When I was young, how strong the hatred that grew because I didn't understand, and how strong the guilt and apologies that came from understanding later.
After switching between the two emotions, Landry, his James's father, is still the same as when he was a child, and the tall figure that smiles from time to time and holds him on his shoulders is still the most powerful and reliable man in his heart. But after hearing what Landry had just said, James suddenly looked back, and he realized.
I don't know when it started, the most powerful man in his heart, the white hair on his head has covered the entire top of his head. And the face that turned out to be as angular as a knife carving, I don't know when, it was already covered with wrinkles.
The vicissitudes of life and years have turned the most powerful superman in his heart into an old man in his last years!
"My body, it's no longer good. You don't want to do business, and I'm not against that. But this family must have a helmsman!Ahem......" It was as if the roar of the last sentence had exhausted all Landry's strength, and Landry, who should still have a lot to say, was already coughing out of breath at this time.
"I ...... I don't want to be at the helm. Although he knew that his answer would make Landry sad. But James didn't want to deceive Landry, even if he was acting as if he could die at any moment and go to heaven to serve God.
"I'm not asking you to be at the helm, but I want you to be the captain of the family guard. Landry made his own request.
"I'm not interested either. James muttered. Although James has no hatred for Landry. But for this family, which is full of disgusting copper stench and the rancid smell of intrigue, James really has no idea of wanting to get involved in the internal affairs of this family.
"Did you know that my body wasn't supposed to be like this?" Landry whispered. "My body is because someone is secretly drugging me, and after a few years, my body will collapse little by little!"
"Who is so bold!" because he didn't care much about family affairs, except for the changes in Landry's physical condition. For the rest of the day, James is basically not going to put much attention.
"I want you to listen carefully to every word I have to say, because maybe this may be the last thing I can say to you!" Landry paused word by word, his tone unusually firm, but there was a sense of desolation in it.
"Hmm. James nodded, indicating that he would keep listening.
"Since five years ago, my body has been slowly breaking down. At first, I thought that because I was getting older, my body would change slowly, and it was also a matter of course. But as time went by, even if I looked for medicine everywhere, the best doctors in the world, with the best medicine, could not make my body recover much! At this time, I realized that maybe the reason for my body's deterioration was man-made, not that God wanted to take me over!"
"I want to find out who is behind the scenes, and who wants to take away my old bones in advance. In fact, in the beginning, the person I doubted was you. As he said this, Landry looked at James and saw that his face did not change at all, and there was no sadness or joy. Landry couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
According to what he investigated, James must have hated him. And according to Landry's guess, James can't say that he will fight immediately when he hears that he is suspected by himself, but at least he should be furious!
Even if James is in the army, his personality is now much more stable. This anger and atmosphere, these two emotions should at least be present, right?
But neither of these emotions appeared on James's face!
Not only that, but there was also an impatient expression in James's eyes! Obviously, so many useless words from Landry made James feel a little disgusted in his heart.
"But then I found out, your mind is all on the military, and you never ask about family affairs. At this time, I guessed that there was someone else among them. And at this time, I thought of another person, this person, the person who was saved by your love in the first place. ”
"You mean Shambaut?" James' brow finally furrowed.
Today's Shambaugh is only twenty years old, two or three years old. Five years ago, how could a child who was still an underage do such a thing?
What's more, when James killed Shambaugh's brother, Shambaugh was only twelve or thirteen years old. How can a child have such deep scheming?
"You don't believe it, do you?" Landry smiled, as if he had thought of James' reaction.
"Did you find anything?" Landry didn't mention Shambaught for no reason, and James knew it too. I'm afraid that at the beginning, Landry also knew about the things he asked the doctor.
Although James's intelligence network is not as powerful as Landry, who owns the entire Rost family. But if James really wants to investigate, he even has the opportunity to use the US intelligence agencies, which are countless times more powerful than the entire Rost family, to investigate intelligence for himself.
After all, there are some things that James wants to know, and the US government also wants to know! For the US government, which has just exterminated the three major families, the most important thing is to beware of the reappearance of families in China whose influence is comparable to that of the three major chaebol families. Therefore, there are some things within the Rost family, unless they are particularly secretive, and other things, the US government also knows.
Now, Shambaugh has found a backer. Landry snorted. "John Monard, have you ever heard of that name?"
"Monard, is that last name?" James pointed to the side of the guide as he spoke.
Landry nodded.
"Hiss......" In this kind of thing, James believes that Landry will not deceive himself. After all, as long as James wants to, this kind of thing can be investigated in minutes. As long as the overlap of the two trips is investigated, it can be judged whether there is any ulterior purpose between the two.
"The people who split up the family, how much hatred they have for the children of the sect family, after so many years, you must know very well, right?" Landry sighed lightly. "Combining the entire division as an internal response, and uniting the Monard gang as foreign aid, such a Shambaugh, do you think that after my death, the family will normally fall into the hands of my designated heir, or will it be taken away by Shambaud directly by force?"
"He dares!" James muttered.
"He dare!" said the same thing, but when it came out of Landry's mouth, it was completely different from what James had expressed. One is disdainful, while the other is categorically affirmative.
"I promise he won't dare. James muttered. "Take care of your body, and I'll take care of the rest. ”
Dropping this sentence, James left directly.
After James left, a ghostly figure appeared beside Landry.
"Patriarch, wouldn't it be bad to deceive the young patriarch like this?"
"When he's old enough, he'll understand. Landry shook his head, then smiled wryly. "I didn't expect that I, Landry Wise I, would end up shadowing my own son!"
