Chapter 462, a good-looking Federator
Brooklyn's words were echoed by many people. Anthony Kennedy also spoke
"Heather, take this clown and leave. You are not welcome here. Brooklyn glanced at Anthony and banged on the table
"I'm more curious now about in what capacity Heather Gerken attended Professor John Manning's funeral."
"This is a funeral held by Harvardians themselves, and only Harvardians are allowed to attend."
"Heather, if you admit that Yale belongs to Harvard, it might make sense." Heather Gerken's gaze wandered back and forth over the three people in front of him, nodded with a smile, and said
"I just happened to meet him in the hallway, and he said he was from Harvard, so I showed him the way."
"Now that they've arrived, it's time for me to leave." After saying that, he really just left. Heather Gerken doesn't seem to care about his face at all.
Barry Justin panicked. He stood up to stop Heather Gerken, but Heather Gerken didn't give him a chance to speak, and walked away without any delay.
Barry Justin looked around uneasily, and the people around him all looked hideous, as if they were about to tear him to shreds.
"Get out!"
"You're not welcome here!" Someone took the lead in shouting, and the servants gathered. The sound of rolling out quickly converged, turning into a stormy wave, constantly impacting.
Barry Justin is like a flat boat in the ocean, and it begins to disintegrate under the impact of continuous sound waves.
Brooklyn sat quietly in her chair, staring straight at Barry Justin. The poor creature thought that if he got on Yale's thigh, he would make a comeback, but he didn't know that Heather Gerken was just using him as a stepping stone to knock on the door of the conference room, check on the meeting, make sure it would go his way, and disgust Harvard with Barry Justin by the way.
He doesn't care how much Barry Justin can play.
"Why is he sitting here!" Barry Justin angrily pointed at Brooklyn and asked loudly.
Brooklyn straightened up with a smile on his face and leaned closer to the microphone in reply
"Because I'm a member of Harvard."
"I graduated from Harvard."
"My grades are excellent."
"Although I can't make Harvard proud of me, at least I won't turn to Yale and let Harvard be ashamed of me."
"Because my guide is Professor John Manning."
"It was he who found me, single-handedly pulled me here, and had high hopes for me."
"Barry Justin, I remember you were a racist, and the first time we met, Professor John Manning drove you away for me."
"Because you've disgraced Harvard!"
"Professor John Manning sees nothing but stupidity and self-righteousness in you."
"And I'm different. Professor John Manning saw in me youth and vigor, and he thought that I could bring change to Harvard, restore Harvard's glory, and make Harvard go to the next level. ”
"The professor thinks I can lead Harvard to glory again, as he once did! Make Harvard Great! ”
"And you're just a poor self-righteous stray dog, a lost dog!" The louder and more excited Brooklyn became, and by the end, the loud shouts had been overshadowed, and the whole room reverberated with his passionate speech of categorical and confident.
"So, get out of here!" Brooklyn finally stood up, pointed to the door, and said loudly.
"That's right! Get out! ”
"Lost dogs! Get out! ”
"Go to your Yale dad!"
"Traitor! Go to hell! The jumbled shouts rang out again. Don't doubt that no matter how cultivated and educated you are, the words you use to express yourself when you're emotional are pretty much the same.
It's just a few words. What is said has never been about upbringing, only about position.
Barry Justin was yelling at Brooklyn with his neck in his hands, but in the midst of the crowd's anger, the noise was so loud that Brooklyn couldn't hear him barking at the dog.
Burke tapped on the table.
"Barry Justin, please get out of here." As he spoke, the door to the conference room opened again, and hotel security personnel barged in and dragged Barry Justin out.
Barry Justin was still shouting, but no one was listening, and everyone applauded, as if they had won a big battle.
The door to the conference room was closed again, people were seated, and the silence was broken. Burke Forsman leaned over the microphone and was about to speak, when Brooklyn suddenly interjected
"I met Heather Gerken at a previous buffet, and then I inquired and heard that Professor John Manning's funeral was also there."
"It's Harvard's own ritual, why is Heather Gerken, a traitor, here?" Brooklyn tilted his head and stared directly at Burke Forsman.
"Burke, as the officiant of Professor John Manning's funeral, you should give everyone an explanation."
"Such a mistake proves that your work is not up to standard."
"It's hard for me to imagine how many problems you have in running Harvard's work after making such a big mistake." Brooklyn took advantage of the presence of Barry Justin to take the lead.
Heather Gerken's abacus crackled. Use Barry to disrupt the meeting, observe the situation in Brooklyn, Burke, and Anthony, get in when necessary, and continue to cause trouble.
Maybe he didn't care about Brooklyn at all. Brooklyn's strength is the weakest of the three, and with the confirmation that Burke and Anthony have teamed up, Brooklyn is negligible.
Perhaps, in Heather Gerken's view, his only role is to continue to exist and make Harvard more chaotic.
So at the buffet, he could tell Brooklyn the story of the Indian maple candy without worry, and he didn't shy away from showing Brooklyn his plan.
He didn't even think about what Barry's presence would make to Brooklyn. In Heather Gerken's opinion, it was enough to confirm that Brooklyn, Anthony, and Burke did not trust each other and could not cooperate.
Brooklyn doesn't feel humiliated, and he's even a little grateful to Heather Gerken for his 'stroke of genius'.
The appearance of Barry Justin and the appearance of Heather Gerken gave Brooklyn the opportunity to take the lead.
He wants to take advantage of the fact that before the cooperation between Anthony and Burke starts, he will tear a huge gap between the two, so that Anthony can see the opportunity to kill Burke, and then shake the cooperation between Burke and Anthony, so that Anthony can choose to cooperate with him again.
This is the first strategic objective of participation in this meeting. Only by achieving this goal can Anthony and Burke be completely divided, and the resistance they face will be reduced, and then they will wait for the opportunity to move on to the next goal.
Of the three, Anthony and Burke's ultimate goal is to be the Speaker, and it would be great if they could easily get rid of the other two obstructibles, and if they couldn't clean up the two together, at least one of them would have to be eliminated.
And Brooklyn's ultimate goal is to unify Harvard. Anthony or Burke, either obediently obey or drive them all away.
He must substantively unify Harvard at today's meeting in order to keep the military engaged in cooperation and to solve the dilemma of the New York incident.
It's not enough to get the status of Harvard Speaker, or just to get rid of an opponent. Brooklyn's goal is the most difficult of the three, even if Brooklyn himself always shows a confident look when facing others, but in fact, until now, he has no bottom in his heart.
Whether it was against Mark Meaille or Anthony Kennedy and Burke Forsman, Brooklyn's confidence was only a disguise.
In fact, he doesn't see any hope! He didn't even dare to think about it too much. You can only take one step at a time, complete a small goal at a time, and get closer to the final goal step by step.
As for how close he could get, he didn't know. Now that Heather Gerken is bringing Barry Justin to stir up the situation, Brooklyn has hope.
He did not hesitate to activate the foreshadowing that he had planted at the buffet. He had prepared a lot of foreshadowings like this, so much that he needed Bob to record for him and be ready to provide reminders at any time.
He himself doesn't know if it's useful or when he will use a lot of foreshadowing. I prepared so much just to do everything I could.
In the face of Brooklyn's attack, Burke Forsman did not show panic like Barry Justin.
He had only received the impromptu news of Heather Gerken's appearance before the meeting began. After announcing the start of the buffet, Burke took Anthony into the room to discuss the details of the cooperation.
Originally, they had been talking about it, but suddenly learned that Heather Gerken had appeared. The already fragile relationship between the two sides was immediately filled with mistrust.
Burke didn't look back at Anthony, he knew very well in his heart that although the two were in a cooperative relationship, they would not hesitate to push the other into the abyss whenever they had the opportunity.
It would be nice to be able to dispose of Brooklyn as well.
Therefore, Burke has long known that once he is in trouble, he simply cannot count on Anthony.
"Heather Gerken is a traitor dean, but he has always had a good relationship with John." Burke said
"The funeral was John's personal ritual and did not need to be discussed for position. Anyone who is a friend of John can come and participate. Some of the people were silent, while others nodded slightly.
Burke's meaning is simple: John Manning's funeral does not need to distinguish between friend and foe, only between distance and proximity.
This was a funeral for John Manning, not a pledge meeting against Yale. What not everyone knows is that Heather Gerken and John Manning were indeed friends, and the two talked on the phone often, sometimes all night.
There are many theories about the friendship between the two, some people believe it, some people even see it with their own eyes, and some people don't, thinking that it is just a superficial peace between the two people.
Burke's words were very level, and he easily defused Brooklyn's attack.
But Brooklyn isn't resting on its laurels. He wants to stare at one person and get the other party into trouble, instead of going east and west and provoking both ends.
Anthony could always sit there without saying a word. These Brooklyns are in sight.
He pointed into the microphone and continued
"Is this what Professor John Manning told you about his thoughts?" Burke Forsman was stunned and shook his head.
Brooklyn then said
"It's no secret how much Professor John Manning loved Harvard, and he made it almost his whole life." After a pause, as if he couldn't find an adjective to describe and suddenly stuck, he pointed to Burke Road beside him
"Now someone is telling me that Professor John doesn't care about position!"
"The professor has dedicated his life to bringing Harvard to glory, he has dedicated his life to Harvard, and now you tell me that the professor doesn't care about position?" Brooklyn asked, looking sideways at Burke
"Is this what the professor meant, or is it your own speculation?" After asking, without waiting for Burke to answer, Brooklyn turned to face the crowd
"You may think that my question is a bit alarmist, even vexatious."
"Some people may have heard some rumors as well." Brooklyn looked around at the crowd and said slowly
"Yes, what you heard is true."
"Him, follow him." Brooklyn pointed to Anthony and Burke
"The two of them are going to expel me from Harvard at today's meeting, and then they will go head-to-head." Anthony stopped smiling, his kind face gradually became serious as he slowly sat up straight, and when he stopped smiling, a sense of majesty emanated from him.
Burke still had a cold face and didn't say a word. In the venue, countless Harvardians who could not be there but could only participate in the form of online meetings were stunned.
The world seemed to be silent for a short time, and the next moment, the fierce discussion quickly erupted.
They had already heard the rumors, and they were vaguely aware of something, or a few of them knew everything about what was going to happen at today's meeting.
But just said it in public, with a big grin...... It's the first time they've met. Don't say it's them, Anthony and Burke are also meeting for the first time.
Brooklyn looked at the mess of the venue, as if they were going to fight, and turned his head slightly to look at Anthony, and then at Burke.
The Federalists have a very obvious characteristic - good face. This shortcoming, exaggerated to a certain extent, evolves into another word – hypocrisy.
The people of the Federation can do the despicable things of the flies and dogs, but others can't say it, and the matter can't be exposed.
Even if everyone in the world knew that the Federalians had done something immoral, the news would not be reported, people would not be able to discuss it, and everyone would have to pretend to be deaf and dumb and pretend not to know.
Whoever mentions, who dies. If someone really pokes out the matter desperately, those who know and those who don't know will look very surprised, and then point at the person concerned and scold, immediately draw a clear line, make their position clear, and stand on the side of the public.
Even if all the 'public' doesn't really want to be on this side. Brooklyn took advantage of this, choosing to directly unravel the cover of hypocrisy and expose everything nakedly.
Not only did this mess up the agenda of the meeting between Burke Forsman and Anthony Kennedy, but it also accelerated the process.
