Li Huan asked suspiciously, "Why?" ”

Eddie couldn't help but smile: "Everything you want to do from the moment you walk in the door to the present is written on your face, and in the eyes of us investigative reporters, digging out your secret is not much harder than opening a bottle of whiskey." But when our secret is known, it may be a corpse on the street the next day. ”

Li Huan thought about it, and felt that he still had the potential superiority of some traversers, so he thought of what to say, and felt in his heart that no matter what he said, things would never be more complicated than traversal.

"Eddie, I think you're a good person, that's why I'll be honest, even if you don't promise me, I have nothing to lose; If you agree, I can still make a lot of money. ”

Eddie shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, man, you can't think so, I'm not that rich." In conclusion, you should first understand who you are being honest with before you decide what to be honest with. ”

In the end, Eddie still did not agree to let Li Huan become an assistant.

When he was on the night shift, Li Huan reflected that no world or NPC is simple, even if it is Eddie who is frustrated now, it is not something he can fool casually.

The door was pushed open and Eddie walked in, tangled face written all over his face.

"Hey, man. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say those things, you know, I just ...... I haven't figured out how to live yet. ”

Li Huan didn't care about it at first, but when he heard Eddie's apology, he felt as if he still had a chance to learn something from him, so he said: "It's nothing, Eddie, life is like this, you need to stop and think." ”

Eddie is a friendly person, he heard Li Huan's answer, he breathed a sigh of relief, smiled reluctantly, and turned around to leave.

Li Huan's sharp eyes saw that someone at the door was about to walk in, it was the little man who had robbed the supermarket last time, he remembered that this little man was a novice, and his hand with a gun would tremble slightly.

"Eddie, get to the back of the shelves." Li Huan urged in a low voice.

Eddie didn't know why, but he quickly walked around to the back of the shelf, and as soon as he hid, he saw a small gangster pointing a gun at Li Huan and threatening him to take out all the cash in the cash register.

Li Huan didn't have a scared expression on his face, and cooperatively handed over all the cash, letting the little man take it all arrogantly.

After Eddie confirmed that it was safe, he slowly walked from behind the shelf, he didn't know how to comfort Li Huan.

"That's how life is, Eddie." Li Huan took the initiative to speak.

"I'm sorry, man." "I thought you wanted to be an investigative journalist to make money. ”

Well? I'm really trying to make money, right? Li Huan looked at him strangely.

Eddie continued, "However, the gang can't be investigated. ”

Li Huan couldn't cry or laugh, how could I have the courage to get involved with the gangsters in the United States? Otherwise, if you get shot on the road one day, you won't be able to reason.

"Alright, Eddie, I'm used to this kind of thing." Li Huan stopped Eddie from continuing to speculate.

The next day, as he passed by Eddie's room, he was pulled inside.

"Listen, Lee, I want to investigate the police department." Eddie said.

"Huh? Why? Li Huan didn't understand his whim.

"Drake and his Foundation for Life have taken control of all of San Francisco, and I've been suspicious that someone is helping him with the materials he needs for live experiments." Eddie said, holding a few newspaper clippings.

"You suspect it's the police department?"

"No, the police don't necessarily know what they did, but I found that several of the victims who appeared on the Life Foundation's litigation agreement were former gang members and had been in jail." Eddie pointed to several reports of the city police department fighting crime.

"How do you want to investigate?" Li Huan understood that Eddie was ready to recruit him as an assistant, otherwise he wouldn't have to talk so much.

"I don't dare to provoke the Life Foundation head-on, but I can gather their information and it will come in handy one day. Until then, I think you can learn to compromise. Eddie smiled incomprehensibly.

What do I compromise? Li Huan was very strange.

A few days later, Eddie dragged him to a remote part of San Francisco, but fortunately did not leave the San Francisco area.

They started with homeless people and surveyed their living conditions over the past few months, in fact, to get data on the movement of people.

During this period, another thing that Eddie asked Li Huan to do was to use the information they investigated to make a deal with the San Francisco Journal.

He packaged Li Huan as a new investigative journalist with enthusiasm and incomprehension of society.

At the same time, he uses his extensive experience to discern what the San Francisco Daily News needs and what it can sell for money.

"I want you to sell these pictures to the San Francisco Journal." Eddie said.

Li Huan looked at it and said, "These are all Drake's opponents." ”

"Yes, the fact that I was fired from the newspaper at least shows that Drake exerted influence over the newspaper. So if you make the scandal of his opponent public, you will definitely not encounter any resistance, and you can become a new star in this industry. ”

Eddie was right, Li Huan soon became the "conscience of San Francisco" with several scandals, and people completely forgot about Eddie Bullock, and they forgot that they once placed this honor on many of their predecessors.

Li Huan learned Eddie's so-called tracking skills - absolute acting skills.

"You have to forget that you're stalking someone else, just a pure passerby." "I used to go to Hollywood and lurk for a long time, until I left there, and everybody thought I was just a normal extra. Unless they see a photo of themselves online one day. ”

"Guozhao?" Li Huan was a little excited.

"Deleted, I'm not an entertainment reporter, I'm just going to hone my acting skills." Eddie doesn't have a good airway.

To be honest, Eddie's tracking skills are really nothing special, and Li Huan originally thought that he could learn such awesome skills.

It's also right to think that Eddie is mostly on the bright side, unlike the incognito investigative journalists.

The San Francisco Daily soon arranged for Li Huan's interview with Carlton Drake, which was also a test for the emerging journalist.

The last failed ship recovery incident had a very bad impact on the Life Foundation, and Drake needed to change the public's impression of him, and naturally the media needed to make a difference.

The owner of the San Francisco Daily had a conversation with Li Huan in advance, and he noticed that the young man seemed to be more interested in salary, so he raised the unit price of the interview at that time.

Li Huan happily accepted and completed the interview very cooperatively, allowing Drake to play himself in the newspaper and on TV.

It didn't take long for the police to find Li Huan.

"Mr. Lee, we are from the California Police Department, and we hope you will cooperate with some investigations."
