0197 Beasts in the Night
"The warehouse was stolen?"
Knoll was surprised, he didn't know anything about it.
Lynch brought Knoll a glass of juice and poured some of his own wine, "It's normal, a lot of people are dying, they don't care if their actions are legal." ”
"In the morning, the warehouse keeper told me that they had found a smashed vent next to the warehouse we rented, and we had lost about a few hundred dollars, which was not a good sign. ”
Lynch's expression was very ordinary when he spoke, and his tone did not show any change, as if he were in ordinary conversation.
"This time, they succeeded, we didn't stop him, there will be a next time. ”
"If they succeed next time and we don't stop them, their desires will escalate, so we need to find them before they engage in more destructive behavior. ”
Lynch raised his glass and touched it with Knoll, who had just reacted, and as he pushed the wine into his mouth, he said, "You're going to help me keep an eye on these things and find them." ”
Originally, Lynch wanted to ask Jack, the community driver, such a person has roots and can't run away, but there are some things he thought about and gave up.
When he left the city hall office building just now, the people in the square looked at him and he felt dangerous, these people were no longer ordinary protesters, they were evolving into rioters.
What's even more terrifying is that the current Progressive Party, the Conservative Party, is dealing with this matter in silence, and also intends to push it into an even more terrible abyss, and then destroy it and rebuild it on its ruins!
Impeaching a president may not be successful, but impeaching a dictatorial tyrant who causes social unrest is definitely a one-shot shot.
In the next few months, the Federation may be going through its darkest hour, and he needs to be prepared.
The children run the streets every day, hand out flyers, or go to the shops to gather information, and they have access to all parts of the city, and they are exceptionally well informed.
What's more important is that these people Lynch can be trusted, this self-confidence comes from his identity as a "master", without him, these people would be poor, and only if he lives comfortably, these people can enjoy life.
Knoll looked indignant after hearing this, and to be honest, Lynch treated them better than the masthead, and even those people in the welfare home treated them better.
Not only did they give them a big and luxurious house to live in, and everyone had their own room, but they were also given an adult's salary, the kind that was not deducted.
In the past, they worked under the masthead, and the amount that fell into their hands was only a hundred to two hundred dollars a year, and they were in danger of being discovered, and when the masthead drank alcohol, they would randomly select a few and beat them.
But here, everything is like in a dream, and neither Noll nor the others are willing to let their lives change in the slightest.
"I see, sir, what am I going to do if I find those people?"
Lynch felt a killing intent on Noel's face, a certain chilling gaze flashing in his eyes, and the syllables squeezed out of his throat, which could not help but remind people of the early hours of that morning.
Lynch's face was calm, he put the wine glass in his hand on the table, and straightened Noel's not-so-obedient collar, "We are all civilized people, and this kind of thing can be left to others to do, you know, Noll." ”
"Killing someone with your own hands is not a sign of courage and wisdom, it can only get you into trouble, and you have to learn to use it to your advantage. ”
"The police, some of the gangsters, including the judges and the people in the prisons, each of them can do a better job than you and make it easier for you to get into trouble. ”
He withdrew his hand, "Find them, and then tell me who they are, and I'll arrange the rest." ”
Knoll nodded yes and left quickly, and in less than half an hour, dozens of children began to use their "professionalism" to start asking about these things.
Later in the evening, an unexpected call from Lynch came to him, and it was his mother.
This is an unavoidable question, because people cannot be born out of thin air, and the greatness of life lies in the process of creating life and the results of creating life, and Lynch is one of the results of great miracles.
He hadn't been in contact with his family since he graduated from high school, and the culture of the Byle Federation was that after graduating from high school, the children would move out and live alone if they didn't plan to inherit the family business, if they had a family business.
Secondly, his parents were very opposed to Lynch's choice at that time, that is, Lynch and Catherine were working while seeking the opportunity to go to school, they thought that working immediately was the most correct choice, and ordinary people should not have dreams, but should live in a down-to-earth manner.
Young people will never be able to understand the words of people who are not very educated, who are not highly educated, they only believe in themselves, until they realize that there are things that cannot be learned in books and in the classroom.
Because of these two things, they have little contact, and coupled with their busy life and work, the relationship quickly becomes indifferent.
There was once a survey about "whether parents should be part of the family" that shocked the whole society, and in most ordinary families who have started a family and have children of their own, they generally believe that parents are family members, but not family members, because they do not live together.
This is the most real social phenomenon, at first people were shocked, thinking that it was the indifference of blood and family affection, but after the habitual shock, they gradually came back to taste, isn't this the most common life of people?
When the child becomes an adult, he leaves the family and begins to form his own life and family, and the parents gradually leave their lives, although they are family, but they are not family members, which is the norm in the Bylor Federation.
Lynch is the same, and in the future he will have children, and when the children become independent, he will also become a family member outside the family.
It sounds a little miserable and bleak, but everyone does.
It was his mother who called, and it seemed easier for the woman to ease the awkwardness between father and son, which had long since ceased to exist.
"Your father is unemployed, and we've heard you've been messing around well lately......"
There was some flattery in his voice, and he didn't feel the dominance and pressure that these two old men had left on Lynch's memory.
Lynch walked over to the couch with the phone and sat down, poured some more wine, "Yes, I'm doing well now." He occupies this body, enjoys its vitality, is young, and is willing to take some responsibility.
If you have gained, you must have to pay, and what you don't get is always unreliable.
The woman breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Lynch say this, "Maybe you can help your father, who now goes out to some meetings every day, and is coming back later and later, and I'm afraid something will happen to him." ”
Lynch's father was not yet fifty years old and in the prime of life, which was also a major problem for them to find it difficult to live together, a family only needed one ruler, not two.
Now the rallies outside are not going to discuss some legitimate things, most of them are discussing how to get more pay from the bosses, and as for not working or something, it has nothing to do with them.
Or it is mobilizing, after all, if a person makes a mistake, he may be set as a model, but many people make mistakes together, which is worthy of sympathy and forgiveness.
Lynch's mother felt that if this continued, her husband might become a member of the TV show, so she called Lynch behind his back.
As Lynch tasted his wine, some unfamiliar memories were awakened little by little, and his father once wanted him not to even go to middle school, so he dropped out of school and went to work.
Those years were at the height of the federal economy, and as long as you were willing to work, as long as you could bend down, you could pick up money.
It was obviously more realistic to work early to support the family than to go to school, but Lynch refused, for which he was beaten.
Fortunately, the federal law on basic education has been in place, and after finishing secondary school, he once again refused to obey the job that his father had arranged for him, which led to this cold war, which has been going on for more than two years.
Thinking of this, he pursed his lips, "I'll go back to see you guys tomorrow and talk about these things by the way." ”
Over the phone, Lynch could feel the woman's emotions eased greatly, "Thank God, that's great, when are you coming?"
As he was saying this, suddenly some noisy slogans drowned out the phone between the two, the one his mother had made in a public phone booth, which is the case in most ordinary families, who could not afford to use a private phone, but could afford to use it in a phone booth.
After waiting for almost a minute, the sound of voices passed, and Lynch said a time, at dinner, and told the woman to go home as soon as possible, it was already dark, and it became more and more unsafe outside.
After hanging up the phone, Lynch sat on the sofa and looked at the dark sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the direction of the city center became darker, the neon lights in many blocks were no longer flashing, and the Federation at this time was darker than ever before.
At about two o'clock that night, Lynch was woken up again by a phone call from a community service company, and they asked if Lynch was safe and if the room had been invaded, which made Lynch's sleepiness dissipate somewhat.
"What's going on?", he asked.
The voice on the phone was a little heavy, "Just now a group of thugs attacked Hengtong Bank and also used guns, they were routed by the guards on duty, and some of them fled in the direction where we were. ”
"But don't worry, Mr. Lynch, all of our security guards have started patrolling, you can see them through the window at any time, and sorry for disturbing your rest......"
Lynch hung up the phone and walked to the window, and he was relieved that there were indeed many security guards patrolling the streets of the community.
He felt that some security measures should be added.
=
In (1) of the previous chapter, companies that hire employees with legal gun licenses and allow them to carry firearms to work are not required to report to the Department of Defense for this purpose. If the company uses a corporate gun license, it needs to report to the local security agency and the Ministry of National Defense for approval, and only after the approval can the security guard be allowed to carry the gun, and the nature will be different. The former remains in a preservation nature, while the latter is a private armed force and subject to surveillance and control.
