This is the first time Brooklyn has hit a wall.

There wasn't much time for him to clean up his mood, and there was a new situation on the roof.

Suddenly gunshots rang out from the roof of the building, which had been quiet.

When the first gunshot rang out, everyone tensed up.

Frank immediately contacted the police to ask for an update, and was told that Bol was fighting David and Bald Eagle and four others.

Before the report could be finished, a series of gunshots followed, and then exclamations were heard outside.

A man was thrown from the roof.

Brooklyn's brain went blank, and he hurriedly ran over to check, and saw that it was not David, and his reason slowly returned, but his heart was still pounding.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another burst of gunfire rang out from the rooftop, and several bullet casings fell.

Brooklyn looked up and could even see a few figures on the edge.

The next moment, Brooklyn was pulled away from the old apartment building by the patrol police, and six figures fell from the roof of the building.

Fortunately, the police arrived early, and the air mattress had been laid around the old apartment building early.

Fortunately, the old apartment building is very old and not very tall in itself.

After a series of pops, Bald Eagle and his three accomplices were crushed to the ground by a crowd of police officers, while David and Pol were carefully carried into the ambulance.

Brooklyn finds Frank in the crowd, waves at him, pulls Ray back into the car, and follows the ambulance.

By the time they arrived at the hospital, David and Pol had been taken in for a full physical examination.

Brooklyn searched around, but couldn't find a familiar figure.

He sat back in his chair, and his irritability and anxiety gradually subsided.

"I'll go to the bathroom."

Brooklyn whispered, got up and walked into the bathroom.

Washing his face with cold water and slapping his cheek hard, Brooklyn looked up at himself in the mirror and covered his face with his hands.

He couldn't bear to look at his performance tonight — whether it was the negotiations with [the Patriots] or the temptation with Burke.

Too bad!

How could it be so bad!

It's like a stupid boy who knows nothing and can only be hot-blooded, except for recklessness, he is pulling the banner of the tiger and pretending to be x and failing in a row.

Recalling the conversation with the Patriot and Burke, Brooklyn covered her face hard and wanted to wail.

He was embarrassed to death!

How could he say such embarrassing things!

Is that really him?

Brooklyn slowly lowered his hand and leaned closer to the mirror, staring at himself in the mirror.

He bared his teeth and made a pained expression.

In the mirror, he also bared his teeth, and his face was also painful.

He rubbed his cheeks vigorously with both hands, causing his face to change and make all kinds of strange combinations of expressions.

In the mirror, he was also kneading his cheeks and making a strange expression at Brooklyn.

He lowered his hand, no longer had any expression on his face, and just stood in front of the mirror, staring straight at it.

In the mirror, he also stared straight at it.

Brooklyn couldn't help but magnify the child's hole.

Maybe he was too nervous today, maybe he was too tired, he seemed to see himself in the mirror and bent the corners of his mouth weirdly.

Brooklyn unscrewed the faucet and picked up a handful of cold water and slapped it in his face.

"Blue? Here comes Luisa. ”

The sound of thunder came from outside the bathroom.

Brooklyn replied with a hmm, took out a tissue to wipe the water stains on his face and hands, and walked out of the bathroom with a heavy heart.

Louisa Clarissa Lawrence is the wife of Pol Lawrence, and the house where Brooklyn and Ray now live was found through her.

Luisa seemed calm, and she seemed to be able to accept her husband Pol's injury easily.

Brooklyn comforted and quietly observed, and it was easy to notice that Louisa's eyes were slightly red and swollen.

She cried, wiped away her tears and rushed to the hospital.

The three of them waited for a while, and the police station began to come one after another, followed by the media.

Soon after Brooklyn drove away the fly-like media, David and Pol's physical examinations were finally over.

The two had multiple contusions on their bodies, dislocated thumbs, slight bone cracks, head blows, and slight concussions, and they were fine for a few days.

After confirming that they could enter the ward for visits, a group of people rushed into the ward in a rage.

Interestingly, the officers all gathered around David's bedside and 'snubbed' Pol to the side.

After exchanging pleasantries, the officers hurried away and turned to Pol's hospital room.

Brooklyn was also ready to go see Pol's, but was kept by David.

When everyone else left, at David's signal, Ray got up and closed the door, and David spoke.

"Blue, I know who hired the gunslinger!"

"Who?"

Brooklyn asked, with a shock in his spirits.

He had speculated about it, but those speculations were flawed.

"Robert Gordon."

David said

"He's one of [Patriot's] customers."

Without waiting for Brooklyn to ask, David took the initiative to explain how he found out: "After [Patriot] called the warden, the two sides did not reach an agreement, and [Patriot] announced that the warden had been expelled and would no longer be a member of [Patriot] in the future. ”

"This irritated the warden and I took the opportunity to ask a few questions, including the mastermind behind the hiring of the gunman. He blurted out the name 'Robert Gordon'. ”

After saying that, he reacted, became furious, and rushed towards me. At that time, Pol and I had already broken our thumb and tail fingers and taken off the handcuffs. ”

"You know the rest."

"Who is Robert Gordon?"

After saying that, David asked curiously.

Brooklyn shook her head, "I don't know. But I think I've heard the name. ”

If it had been before, he would have wondered if it was someone who had been provoked by 'Original Brooklyn', but since the shooting, he has completely accepted all his memories.

Robert Gordon's name is not in these memories.

But he felt that the name was inexplicably familiar.

Where have you heard of it?

Why can't you remember?

Brooklyn was a little irritable, rubbed his cheeks vigorously, and simply took out his phone Google Robert Gordon.

Yale Law School Professor!

Right! Last time I heard it at that party shortly after Lyleigh Crewe's death!

"A professor at Yale Law School?"

"Why did he hire a gunman to kill you?"

David asked, puzzled.

Brooklyn didn't understand it, but he quickly figured it out.

He is the definitive successor to John Manning, who is no longer in good health. The Harvard school is now the backbone of John Manning, who sees it as a guarantee for Harvard for the next forty years.

It is unclear whether Brooklyn is Harvard's guarantee for the next 40 years, but it is an indisputable fact that John Manning is the pillar of the Harvard school and the anchor of the sea.

And once the Gunners succeed in killing Brooklyn, how will John Manning feel when he gets the news?

Think about the fate of the last successor he valued, and look at the current one.

But those who are a little more fragile will inevitably have an absurd sense of fatalism, thinking that there should be an accident in the successor they choose, an accident should happen to the outstanding graduates of Harvard, and there should be no future for Harvard, and it will decline.

Even if John Manning was strong enough not to have such thoughts, would his body be able to handle it?

Even if his body can withstand it, how many days can he support it under the successive blows?

Even if he can make it all the way, he will have to re-select his successor.

Brooklyn quickly figured this out, and instead of answering David's question, he pulled out his phone and dialed Burke's number.

Before I pressed the dial button, the conversation next to the old apartment building was so ashamed and embarrassed that I wanted to find a crack in the ground came to my ears.

】

Brooklyn stopped.

He silently deleted the number and silently put away his phone.

"Robert Gordon is a professor at Yale Law School, I am from Harvard, Yale and Harvard are not dealing with each other in the first place, and it is normal for Yale people to find gunmen to assassinate Harvardists."

Brooklyn explained to David, while not forgetting to discredit Yale, "which is also very much in line with Yale's style of doing things." ”

Seeing that David and Ray both had question marks on their faces, Brooklyn continued, "Yale Law School was founded by people from Harvard Law School, and it was divided because of different philosophies. They were traitors in the first place. Betrayers like to make small moves. ”

David felt that things were not so simple, but he and Ray had never gone to college, and he didn't know anything about the grievances and hatreds of top colleges like Harvard and Yale, so he could only choose to trust Brooklyn.

"But why did he assassinate me and Frank?"

David asked, confused.

There were three shootings that night, one against Brooklyn, and the gunman almost succeeded. One was directed at Frank Regan, who was shot dead by Frank on the spot, and the other was directed at David, who was evaded by the alert.

Three victims, Brooklyn, Frank, David.

If Robert Gordon's hiring of Brooklyn can be explained by the college dispute, then Frank and David don't make sense.

Frank wasn't a Harvard graduate, his youngest son was a Harvard graduate, and he attended his youngest son's graduation ceremony.

But Robert Gordon wasn't crazy, he couldn't kill everyone who attended Harvard's commencement ceremony, could he?

If Frank is still barely getting along with Harvard, then David is even more unreasonable.

David didn't even go to college.

Therefore, the assassination of Frank and David was not due to a dispute over the academy at all.

"No, not a bunch."

Brooklyn said

"Robert Gordon wasn't the employer who assassinated you and Frank. He must have learned about the assassination of you on the [Patriot] platform, so he added me to the list, intending to fish in troubled waters. ”

As he spoke, there was a knock on the door outside the room, and then the door opened, and Frank appeared in the doorway.

It's another hush and a warm question.

Brooklyn also took the opportunity to visit Ball next door.

Although Pol's side is not as lively as David's, it is many times warmer than that side.

Brooklyn's eyes circled between the two, and Brooklyn quickly realized what was happening. He was standing in the doorway, not even wanting to go inside.

"I'm coming to see Pol, Pol looks good, doesn't he, my brother? Since you're all right, and there's beautiful Lady Louisa in your care, I think it's time for me to go back and take care of poor bachelor David. Goodbye, my brother! ”

After saying that, Brooklyn didn't give the two a chance to speak at all, and turned around directly, opened the door, walked out, and closed the door.

A set of actions is smooth and done in one go.

Back in David's hospital room, he had a lively time with the officers, and watched the officers leave one after another, leaving Frank in Brooklyn.

He told David about Robert Gordon and his own speculation. With that, Brooklyn looked straight at Frank.

"The ultimate target of the assassination is not me, but Frederick." Frank rubbed his temples with a bit of a headache and said, "I can't say anything superfluous." They are also classified documents. ”

With that, Frank simply sat down on the chair and rubbed his forehead vigorously.

Tossing and turning until now, he has not rested at all.

Brooklyn saw Frank's exhaustion and didn't dwell on it any longer.

In fact, this sentence is enough.

Robert Gordon's goal was to take out Harvard, and he may not be interested in the changes in New York at all, and he may not even know who Frederick is.

And the purpose of assassinating Frank and David was for Frederick.

This has already confirmed that Brooklyn's guess was correct.

Robert Gordon, knowing that the assassination of Frank and David existed, wanted to fish in troubled waters and added Brooklyn to it.

Now the last question remains - why did the assassination suddenly stop!

Knowing that the assassination of himself was not the same person who assassinated Frank and David certainly solved a big mystery, but Brooklyn still had a doubt: why did the assassination stop!

Robert Gordon has already hired a murderer to kill him, so why doesn't he stay the course?

In Brooklyn's view, Robert Gordon's plan was 99% complete, and it was just one step away from success.

The gunmen on the road failed to kill Brooklyn, and it was not a failure.

Ambulance on the way, hospital emergency room, follow-up recuperation...... There are so many opportunities.

In the face of so many opportunities, what put an end to the assassination plan against himself?

Brooklyn patted his head, feeling a wave of irritability.

It felt like the clear water of a stream was polluted by muddy sewage, and he felt as if his brain was no longer clear.

When he was thinking about problems, he couldn't concentrate, and his mind was always flying with jumbled thoughts.

And this irritability!
