Chapter Ninety-Four: A Fatal Deal (I)
Ouyang Jie did not have plastic surgery or makeup, so taking off his mask and showing his true face was enough to prove his identity.
Without a mask to block his vision, Ouyang Jie could better appreciate the change in Everett's expression, the first thing he saw was confusion, then shock, followed by the snickering joy hidden in the depths, and the deep worry and doubt floating on the surface.
This respected gentleman must have been in a frenzy at the moment when he put his hand on the constitution and took the oath.
Many people know, or rather, speculate that J has the ability to predict the future, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why J's prediction was so accurate.
This is exactly what Ouyang Jie is looking for, and when people believe that J's prediction is accurate, he can quickly gain access to a large amount of resources. The fanatical believer is willing to give everything to him, and the shrewd believer will exchange the resources he has, and he does not even need to show up in person, he only needs to ask the agent to have a meal and make a phone call, and he can easily harvest resources that are difficult for civilians to reach.
But there is only one person who knows where the limit of the god list is, and that is Ouyang Jie himself.
Although the prediction ability of the Fengshen List has been improving, it is not yet possible to predict the results of the general election in mid-January - the primary election will not start until next month, and there is a full ten months between the presidential election in November.
But Everett didn't know this, he only knew two things: One, he had not publicly stated that he would run for president. Second, J can predict the future.
When these two conditions are put together, even if he does not believe in them all, he will not deny them all.
People will always believe in what they want to believe, as long as he has a little luck and belief in his heart, Ouyang Jie can use him to carry out the next plan, if everything goes well, he may be able to take advantage of the momentum of the United States Federation for his own use.
After the great wave of emotions gathered in his heart, Everett was strong and calm, and while slowly lowering his hand, he shook his head and said, "Maybe I heard it wrong, or maybe you found the wrong person......
"Please don't touch your phone and don't have any thoughts of asking for help, because I don't have any hostility towards you, I just want to give you a little help."
Ouyang Jie looked at Everett levelly, but his eyes seemed to look down on him in a higher dimension, as if he knew everything.
I have to say that this feeling is very good, Councillor Everett's status in the party is not high, but it is still an existence that most people need to look up to, and being able to use this big guy as a chess piece to tease and use makes Ouyang Jie gain a kind of spiritual satisfaction and pleasure, which is the superiority of the Tomorrow's Dominator in the face of mortals.
"Well, I don't seem to have any other choice but to trust you." Everett reluctantly raised his hands back to the table and smiled wryly, "This is New York, you are so bold." You should know that almost all intelligence agencies are looking for you, and if necessary, they may take extreme measures. Maybe, I mean, if you want, maybe you should cooperate with the federal government, and I assure you that if the news leaks out, going to court is just a walk-through process, and the president will definitely use the amnesty power. β
The most untrustworthy thing in the world is the promises of politicians, Ouyang Jie shook his head with a smile: "Don't worry, you should also know that I can predict the future, right?" β
To be sure, Ouyang Jie made two preparations, his fanatical followers planted "homemade explosives" (in fact, modified military solid mixed explosives) in randomly selected safe areas in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas, and if he did not send back news for more than 24 hours, the believers would not hesitate to detonate those explosives.
It is impossible for the terrorist H attack that occurred on the territory of the United States to not be widely reported, and the intelligence agencies that tracked down J could not have imagined that J could predict the outcome of another event with an unrelated matter, so even if they learned the news in advance, secretly arrested the Chinese restaurant, and blocked the news afterwards to prohibit the news media from reporting on it, it would be useless.
Since the Fengshen List did not publish any news about the explosion, it means that the explosion will not happen, which means that Ouyang Jie will not be arrested.
"Oh, you admit it. Well, I gotta say, even if you admit it, I still can't believe it. Everett's expression was complicated, and his tone was emotional, "Just now you said that I was the future president?" In contrast, this news shocked me even more, and I couldn't believe it...... If this news is true, excuse me, why tell me? β
In fact, Ouyang Jie didn't know the real election results, he just saw that Everett Charles would participate in the primary election next month, and Everett was very suitable for Ouyang Jie's needs in all aspects, so there was this meeting.
After hearing Everett's question, Ouyang Jie pursed his lips and smiled, he knew that Everett believed it, or rather, wanted to believe it.
"Because the future is not a given, I have changed the future more than once, and this is the proof." Ouyang Jie replied slowly, "Have you ever heard of the butterfly effect?" Butterflies flapping their wings to cause tornadoes? It's an exaggeration. But things do have unpredictable complexities, especially in a system as complex as the presidential election, which is full of variables. β
"I agree with you." Everett nodded repeatedly, convinced that the results of the previous presidential elections had been fully explained.
"With 10 months to go until the election, there are so many things that can happen, and no one can guarantee that you will be president. But that doesn't mean we have to go with the flow and wait for the results to be announced. Ouyang Jie stopped talking and pretended to be profound.
"What do you mean?" Everett asked a cooperative question.
"Since the future can change, every time someone changes the future trajectory of the presidential election, I can find a way to change it back." Ouyang Jie pointed to himself, and then pointed at Everett, "However, this requires your cooperation. β
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and Everett would not be naΓ―ve enough to think that J would help him run for president for free.
He realized that it was a deal, but instead of retreating, he looked forward to it even more, after all, a professional politician like him is the best at making deals with people.
"Sounds like a great idea, but I want you to answer my questions first?"
Probably smelling the smell of food wafting from the kitchen, Everett swallowed and continued, "Why help me?" β
Why should I help you? Ouyang Jie sneered in his heart, but the smile on his face was as warm as a spring breeze.
"Let's try the food here first, we Chinese people like to talk about things at the dinner table, and talk while eating."
