0043 Collision between dark clouds
It's a bit of a big deal, and it's true that Lynch has the credit for it, and he threw himself in the matter as one of the elements, but it wasn't him or the media that really made things ferment quickly.
They don't have the ability to shake the official attitude, and what makes the official start to be vigilant is an enemy of their same level.
Not everyone has a friend with a "license", and not everyone can use a friend's "license" to do things for themselves, many people are actually the kind that are being done, which also makes some people who have social status but have no access to power very panicked.
Their panic stems from the fact that their wealth and power have not been matched as they had originally thought, and are still two horizontal parallel lines, which means that if their opponents use this part of the power they don't have against them, it will be difficult for them to resist.
Among these people, they are mainly emerging capitalists, who have quickly accumulated wealth that may have taken two or three generations to accumulate in the past under the outbreak of the dividends of the times, and at the same time lack sufficient foundation.
They began to fear, fear the power that they had fantasized about countless times, just like a lot of people say that they want to put capital in a cage, and for these emerging capitalists who have no background, it is not them who should be put in the cage, but power.
So when Lynch's incident quickly fermented after he started it, it wasn't that Lynch was special, he just made a knife for these people.
This knife may not be able to tear through the iron wall that the Federation has gradually formed over the centuries, but it is enough for them to cut another knife in the traces left on this wall, and make this mark a little deeper!
Someday, they will be able to tear a hole in this invisible wall with one sword, one day.
The pressure of these people quickly forced the Federal Tax Administration to compromise, because these people who are working hard are also the people who pay the most taxes every year.
Losing an inconspicuous low-level investigator in exchange for quelling the turmoil looks like the Federal Tax Service has suffered a loss, but in fact there is only one person who really suffers, and that is Michael.
As long as the enforcement power in the hands of the Federal Tax Service is not compromised, they always have a chance to win back!
The situation is so clear, but Michael's inner world is rainy, and the director's words before leaving make him in a state of mania, and the man actually makes him bow to his enemies in exchange for true forgiveness.
Everyone who has some knowledge of the world knows that Lynch's apology is an offensive method of retreating, and the weaker he appears, the more it will provoke a violent reaction from the whole society.
What remains to be done now is to convince Lynch to truly forgive Michael, then the matter will be easily resolved and nothing more than a minor offense.
Mrs. Michael is still being treated in the hospital, and the injuries to her face and outer thighs are not minor, and she has not fully recovered, and she also needs to be counseled by a psychiatrist, which happened to be done together.
That's a lot of money, and Michael Jr.'s case requires not only money to pay for the defense lawyer, but also Michael's current status to settle some troubles that aren't a nuisance for the privileged class.
This also means that once he loses his current job, Michael's family will be ruined in an instant, and they will soon be frowning in various bills, and then sell their house and move to a lower cost of living, and the family will be finished for the rest of their lives!
After smashing a lot of stuff, Michael walked out of the house in his formal suit, his head buzzing and his eardrums bulging outward.
When he first went out, he saw the concerned faces of his neighbors, and he saw what they seemed to be saying, but he couldn't hear anything, and all he had in his head was the sound of lifeless tinnitus.
He barely squeezed out a smile and pulled the car door and sat in, ignition, shifting gears, and the car slowly left the community.
He was going to meet Lynch and settle these things, he never realized that he would have a hurdle in his step, and he didn't think he would encounter it, after all, he was the head of the investigation team of the Federal Inland Revenue Service, and he might rise to a higher place in the future.
He miscalculated himself, and he miscalculated others, and he had to pay for his own mistakes.
When Michael arrived at the hospital, the reporters were basically finished, and Lynch's cooperation made the interview work extremely fast, Michael went directly to Lynch's hospital room, and when he pushed the door in, Lynch was sitting on the bed in his hospital gown watching TV.
Obviously, he looked very haggard, but Michael could see at a glance through the other party's bright eyes that this haggard and sick look was pretended.
Suddenly, a wave of anger rose from the soles of his feet, and before he could burn his reason, he was extinguished by his own hands.
Lynch also noticed Michael entering the room, he picked up the remote control to stop the TV from making sound, and then looked at Michael.
Michael was a little uncomfortable by him, so he took a deep breath, walked to the small round chair next to the bed and sat down, and apologized in what he thought was sincere, "I want to apologize to you for my irrational behavior before, I hope you can forgive me!"
It was actually not easy for him to say these words, and the smooth sailing of these years was also part of his bad temper, and if such a humiliating scene had been placed before, he would rather break the jar than apologize.
But family became the straw that overwhelmed him, and he did begin to reflect on some issues.
Lynch shook his head, "You said it very perfunctory, and I can't see the slightest sincerity of you, the first time I heard that you asked someone for forgiveness was ......like this", he looked Michael up and down, and said in a sarcastic tone, "As if I was begging for your apology, as soon as I entered the room, I sat next to me without invitation, and said something inexplicable and waited for me to reply." ”
"I don't think you're here to apologize, but to show off that I'm lying here and you're standing!"
Michael's brows immediately rose, he had already apologized, what else did he want, but looking at Lynch's smiling expression, thinking about the predicament he was facing now, the rising anger was once again extinguished by his own hands.
He stood up a little numbly, he felt like he was left in a shell, and he couldn't feel his true self.
He quickly left the room, bought some flowers, some fruits, and some gifts on the side of the hall on the first floor of the hospital, and then went back upstairs, this time he took the initiative to knock on the door, and then went in to force himself to lower his voice, and after explaining his intention, he said what he said before, "...... I beg your forgiveness for my recklessness!"
Lynch still looked the same as he was unhappy, "If buying something represents sincerity, there will be no war in this world." ”
Michael's voice suddenly rose, "Then what do you want me to do?", he glared at Lynch, but quickly softened his attitude again, "I'm sorry, you know my temper, what do you want me to do, give me a good time!"
Lynch nodded with satisfaction, "Kneel down, sincerely apologize to me, and beg me to forgive you for your previous actions." ”
He sat on the bed and looked at Michael, who looked incredulous.
The two looked at each other for about half a minute, Lynch's eyes did not give in the slightest, and Michael seemed to gradually understand something.
He bowed his head and was silent for a moment, then fell to his knees with a pop, always keeping his head down, sincerely apologizing, and begging for Lynch's forgiveness.
His voice trembled slightly as he said these words, as if he was suppressing something, and Lynch knew it was anger, unwillingness, hatred, and the desire to destroy.
In fact, Lynch also knows very well that all this is a temporary choice, and it is just Michael's compromise.
He laughed at the thought of this, and while ringing the nurse's bell, he said with a smile, "I refuse!"
Michael jerked his head up and looked at Lynch in disbelief, as if he didn't hear what he had just said and wanted Lynch to say it again.
Lynch also seemed to hear his inner voice and continued, "I refuse to forgive you. ”
Michael stood up, he walked into the bedside, with some fierce looks on his face, "You asked me to go shopping, let me kneel, I did as you said, and now you say you refuse?"
Lynch didn't have the slightest fear in the face of Michael, who was getting closer and closer, but asked, "If an apology is useful, why do you need law enforcement officers and the Department of Justice?"
"You've sinned, Michael, aren't you too naïve if an apology would erase your crime?", Lynch said and quickly raised his hand to cover his lips, "Oh my God, I actually sweared, are you too naïve?"
Michael's eyes were red, and just as his sanity was about to be extinguished again, the door to the room opened, and the two nurses looked at Michael in amazement, followed by a scream!
