In the afternoon, Dona was absent, and Emma Gilson said she was not feeling well and needed medical attention, and the trial was interrupted.

Brooklyn fined the defendant $1,000 as punishment and announced that it would continue tomorrow.

After looking at the time, he simply skipped work and ran away, and called Ray impromptuly, calling Pol's wife, Luisa, to go to the bank.

Gritting his teeth and transferring the money in the account to Ray, Brooklyn held Ray's hand with a face full of reluctance.

"Lei, I'll hand it over to you for the rest of my life."

"I'll rely on you for the rest of my life!"

"You have to protect this money like a life, you must protect it, but you can't let it be abducted, ah~"

Brooklyn's reluctant appearance provoked a strange laugh from Ray.

Handing over the power of attorney to Ray and asking Ray to go with Luisa to buy a house, Brooklyn returned to the office with a long sigh.

How did he get so miserable? Not to mention that he had to make a joint venture with someone else to buy a house, he also emptied his account.

Why is he so miserable?

Brooklyn reflected.

Until he returned to David's house in the evening, he still looked absent-minded.

David has been busy with the case of Riley Crewe Jr. lately, and has not seen Brooklyn in a few days, and he is very puzzled to see him sigh and sigh.

"Ray, what's wrong with Blue?"

In the kitchen, David asked quietly.

Ray was chopping vegetables, and when he heard this, he glanced at the sullen Brooklyn in the living room, and said with a smile, "We went to buy a house in the afternoon, and his account was emptied." I feel sorry for the money. ”

"Hey! You two! I can hear you! ”

Brooklyn shouted back at them.

"Hollowed out?"

David's eyes widened in disbelief.

Brooklyn earned so much more than he did, how could it be said that it would be hollowed out?

"He had to choose a three-story house with a front and back yard! Three floors! Front and back yards! ”

Brooklyn gritted his teeth and walked towards the kitchen.

Ray spread his hands.

"Didn't you agree?"

"You and Luisa 2-1 'convinced' me!"

Brooklyn bit 'Persuasion' hard, snatched the knife from Ray's hand, and sliced the chopping board as a sound.

"It's okay, there should be compensation for you from the apartment building."

David held back for a long time and comforted.

"I hope so."

Brooklyn squeezed out of the thunder and began to direct the two of them to wash and chop vegetables.

Soon, a table that was not a sumptuous dinner was ready.

After eating, the three of them gathered in the living room to watch TV, and Brooklyn said suddenly

"That's not going to work."

Ray and David looked back at him in unison, a little confused.

"It's not going to work on the paycheck alone. We also have to decorate, we have to get married, have children, raise children, pay insurance, we have to travel, we have to buy clothes, ......"

Brooklyn counted on his fingers, and said that David and the two were dizzy.

"Stop! Hey! Buddy! Stop it! ”

David hurriedly spoke.

"Say no more, Blue."

"Money is not easy to make, we all know that everyone is short of money." Ray saw Brooklyn's anxiety and comforted, "But your income is high enough, think of those workers, they work harder than us, and their wages are not as good as ours." ”

Brooklyn shook her head.

"We have to have a plan for the future. David, Ray. ”

Living in an apartment building before, Brooklyn felt that the annual salary of 170,000 was a lot, but this time he bought a house, or a joint venture with Lei, and he found that 170,000 was really not much.

"It can't go on like this, we don't have a plan for the future, and we can't make enough money."

Ray and David looked at each other, and a familiar and unfamiliar feeling came over them.

They were like that when they were kids, too.

He and David have not been as good as Brooklyn since they were young, and they are busy running for the next meal every day, and only Brooklyn has a clear goal to help them plan for the future.

"What do you say?"

David stopped watching TV, turned around, and asked dignifiedly.

"To make money."

"To have extra income!"

"You can't live on a paycheck alone!"

"I'm not a black cop."

David looked at Brooklyn's brighter and brighter eyes and said quickly.

"Or I'm not going to be a bailiff." Ray gritted his teeth and said, "I heard that mercenaries in Africa are very profitable......"

Brooklyn rolled his eyes and stopped Ray's next words, he rummaged through his memories and spoke slowly

"We didn't have enough to eat before, and I thought we could get a good job with a decent job."

"Now it seems that to get a good life, we have to have more than just decent work."

"I'm going to do something else."

"Judges are not allowed to participate in or engage in commercial activities."

Ray's training class was good, and he hurriedly reminded.

"You like the profession of a judge so much, or forget it."

David nodded in agreement.

"I want to continue to go up, and by proper means, I can only become the chief judge of the district court at most."

"If you want to enter the Circuit Court, or even the Supreme Court, you must have financial support."

"It's so difficult to buy a house now, where is the financial support?"

"There's no way David will stay in the murder squad for the rest of his life. The director of the New York Bureau, and even future candidates for Congress, governor, and the Senate or House of Representatives, also need financial support. ”

"And Thunder, you ......"

"I don't have any ideas, I think it's fine right now."

Ray was taken aback by Brooklyn's "Supreme Court" on the left and "Senate" on the right, and when he heard himself mentioned, he hurriedly expressed his position.

It's okay for him to be a bailiff, and if he continues to go up in politics, he will die by himself.

"Then you will be the financier behind us."

Brooklyn was dissatisfied with Ray's statement of the status quo, forcibly ignored his words, and continued to follow the good path

"You can start a big company, and you can buy a hundred houses like this."

"I don't want to buy a hundred."

"No, you want to !!!!"

Ray pursed his lips and wisely closed his mouth.

"What do you want to do?"

David asked.

"Judicial Auction."

Brooklyn slowly spat out two words.

"Start with a judicial auction and accumulate the principal."

"But, we don't seem to have that much money to bid on good things." Lei frowned and said, "Good things have long been booked by the big guys. ”

"If we participate in the auction under your banner and hope that the judicial auction will abuse power for personal gain like some officials who do not take a firm position, it will have a very bad impact on you."

David nodded frantically on the side, and then added, "Most judicial auctions are organized by state courts, and you ...... in federal courts."

Rather than making money and getting promoted, he hopes that the three of them will be safe.

Brooklyn always felt that the content of Ray's words was familiar with his tone, and a familiar flavor loomed.

"None of this is a problem, judges all over the federation are doing it. Let's start by thinking about the specifics. ”

"But that doesn't mean you have to be like them, Blue." Ray frowned and said disapprovingly, "You can do better." ”

"Go to the Supreme Court, do better for the citizens of the whole Union, nest in E.D.N.Y, do the best for the citizens of Brooklyn. We can only choose one. ”

Brooklyn simply gave the choice to Ray, who constantly opposed him. Is it to benefit one party with honesty and nobility, or to influence the whole world with the light and dust?

This is not an easy multiple-choice question.
