Chapter 466, Old Friend

Angela's story is the talk of the older generation of Harvards, and almost all of the older Harvards know about it.

Burke Forsman naturally knows that, too. Not only did he know, but he also knew the aftermath of the incident. Anthony and Angela haven't touched a woman for three years after a spring breeze is the essence of the whole story, and most people stop when they talk about it, and then laugh with the people who listen and shout 'poor Anthony'.

But he knew that the second half of the story was more exciting. Angela pesters Anthony for an entire semester, and miraculously, after the second semester starts, Angela disappears.

In that chaotic era, it was not surprising that a female college student disappeared, and there were still schools that did not admit girls in those days.

Burke was about to say something, and his phone buzzed. He opened it and took a look. After discovering that he was investigating the lack of information about Brooklyn's stay in the orphanage, Burke thought of buying it from an intelligence broker, and he asked a reputable—at least reputable broker for him—to ask for a price.

He was surprised by the reply. [Sorry, I don't sell anything related to Brooklyn Lee here.]

The warm smile on Burke's face couldn't hold it back. He looked surprised, thought about it, and then re-edited a message and sent it.

[Why?] I can raise the price. The reply came quickly. [There is no reason, this is the rule.

I'll send you a message as compensation. [Anthony Kennedy had been in contact with Lane Spegg for a long time.

Anthony has been in contact with Lane for a long time? Burke glanced up at Anthony. According to the results of the investigation released by the police, Lane Spegg poisoned John Manning with a grudge because he stayed by John Manning's side for a long time to serve the paralyzed John Manning.

But this is only the statement given by the police, and it is the rhetoric that Harvard had to give after its intervention to calm the situation as soon as possible.

There are even many versions of this statement, such as the doctor poisoning, Yale dropping, Stanford provoking, and so on.

The real murderer of John Manning has not yet been found! Of course, Harvard did not ask the police to catch the real murderer as soon as possible, the real murderer and the fake murderer did not mean much to them, as long as there was a target.

Now, what does Michael mean by that? Implying that Anthony instructed Lane to kill John Manning? Burke's mind spun around and continued typing.

[Because you know Brooklyn Lee?] Are you friends? This time, I simply didn't wait for the other party's reply.

And while Burke buried his hair in text Kung Fu, Anthony had left. Anthony went back to his room to take the medicine and stroked his chest, feeling a little more comfortable.

He always felt that today was not right, that he was not comfortable anywhere. Anthony rested in his room for a while, changed into a coat, walked out the door, and met Brooklyn as he stepped out of the elevator.

Brooklyn was answering the phone, and when he saw Anthony, he had a cold face and took the other person for air. To his surprise, Anthony actually smiled at him, and even nodded slightly in greeting.

Brooklyn couldn't figure out what was going on, so he could only take a few steps behind to avoid the call being overheard by Anthony.

"Brooklyn." Familiar and unfamiliar voices. Brooklyn was stunned for a moment, and familiar memories slowly welled up.

On that night of the shooting, there was this voice reminding him to hurry up and run. In the parking lot of the lo bar, there was this voice that gave him information.

In e.. y, in ......

"Michael Desciato!" Brooklyn called out each other's names. Michael, who seemed glad that Brooklyn still remembered his name, let out a hearty laugh and said

"Haha! That's right, it's me! My friend, are you okay? I heard you've been in trouble lately and need my help? "The recent encounter has left Brooklyn hesitant, powerless, and lonely...... All kinds of negative emotions are constantly surging, but they have been suppressed by him with strong willpower.

Michael's sudden hearty laughter and old friend-like concern touched Brooklyn very much, and a feeling that the grievance was finally understood went straight to his eyes, and Brooklyn almost turned red.

But that's about it. Brooklyn always keeps in mind Michael's identity – he's a broker!

"How can you help?" Brooklyn asked. Now is the time to fall into a Jedi, and he will not refuse any power that could be a help.

"That's a lot of help." Michael said happily

"Like all the troublemakers you're facing?"

"I have three gears here, the lowest gear is for the people to remember them, the middle gear is enough to reduce their approval ratings, and the highest gear is enough to send them to prison."

"How? Which gear do you want? ”

"What price?" Brooklyn asked.

"You probably can't afford it." Michael said calmly, not teasing Brooklyn in the slightest.

He explained

"It takes more than just money to sell these. This information could cause an earthquake across the federal government, and I need to think about my own safety. I won't sell unless you can make 100% sure of my safety, provide me with a safe exit lane, and have the right follow-up arrangements in place. ”

"Harvard." Brooklyn didn't care about Michael's little jokes about showing his strength, and said directly

"I'll send you a list later, and I want all the information I can get them to jail." Michael stopped laughing, and he was silent for a while

"Are you sure, Brooklyn?"

"If it does, Harvard's strength will be greatly weakened."

"If you're just a regular client, maybe I'll be happy to take the deal, but we're friends, Brooklyn, and I have to remind you that if you do, even if you win, you'll get a broken Harvard."

"You're going to be a Harvard sinner!"

"Price." Brooklyn didn't answer, and the words that blurted out seemed to answer everything. Michael sighed and said

"Okay, I need to confirm the price based on the target specifics."

"Also, I just checked your account balance, and I'm afraid you won't be able to pay." Michael said

"But we're friends, and I won't embarrass my friends." Brooklyn listened quietly. He knew that 'play meat' was coming.

Michael has been helping him since he met him, and even almost saved his life. Michael kept giving and helping, but never asked for anything in return.

Whenever Brooklyn asked, he would say, 'Because we're friends.'" But friends don't get along like this!

The more Michael was like this, the more wary Brooklyn became. Today, it's finally time to reveal the mystery.

"I'm going to move the company to New York." Michael said.

"You still have a company?" Brooklyn asked casually.

"Of course." Michael introduced the main business of the debt-ridden shell company in three or two sentences, and then said

"Introduce me to Mr. Governor of New York, and the director of the NYPD, I think the four of us will have a good conversation." Brooklyn listened quietly, and when Michael paused, he asked

"Anything else?"

"I ask to be involved in the assignment in New York." Michael said. New York has been divided between Harvard and the military, and the remaining 60% is reserved for Frank + Winston + Brooklyn.

The cake was already divided before it was served or even made. Michael made three requests, each with deep meaning.

The first request of the relocation company was for Brooklyn to be a backer for his business. The second request to introduce Frank and Winston was actually Michael's request to join their small team of three.

The third requirement is very straightforward, directly identifying himself as a collaborator, not a patron or a junior.

"Is this the total price?" Brooklyn didn't bargain, but asked. Michael was silent for a moment and said

"Brooklyn, I don't want to be so careless with my friends, but if that's your habit...... Well, yes, that's the total price. Starting with a parking space in the parking lot, the Road offers you all the black material of all the opponents of Harvard. ”

"Plus, I can help you with that. Some people aren't really your supporters. ”

"The price is too high." Brooklyn began to bargain

"Everyone involved in the distribution has to contribute and really participate in the action. You do not have any actions and cannot be eligible to participate in the distribution of profits. ”

"Unless you can provide the high-grade black material mentioned earlier. Deal with all your opponents. I can consider letting you take an extra part. That being said, Brooklyn doesn't really believe Michael has the ability.

If a broker really has the black material of all the high-ranking officials of the federal government, then why should he be a broker instead of running for president?

Even if his approval rating is pitifully low, even if people have never seen him, as long as he has no opponents and has the support of all federal officials, running for president will be an easy task for him.

In short, Brooklyn doesn't believe that a broker, a broker who was embarrassed by the FBI two years ago, can suddenly swell to the point of being the invisible president of the Union two years later.

This is an exaggeration! He was even skeptical that Michael was able to collect Harvard material.

"It can't be!" Michael said categorically

"I won't sell this news unless you can guarantee the conditions I mentioned earlier."

"What about taking it apart and selling it? How about providing information on only a few people who are necessary?? Brooklyn asked.

"Nope." Again, Michael simply refused. He also seemed to realize that his refusal was too blunt, Michael said

"I can send you another message for free."

"You say it's free every time, but just now you said it's the total price." Brooklyn couldn't help but retort.

This kind of person is really shameless. While saying that you owe favors for free, you are looking for an opportunity to settle it with interest.

"It's really free." Michael said

"Your old adversary, Burke Forsman, has just been about to buy a copy of your background check from me. I refused. ”

"I think you're more interested in it. I'm ready to leave it to you. Michael laughs

"Our rule is that certain important information is only sold once." Brooklyn thought for a moment, and his face darkened.

Michael's quote reveals two important messages. One is that Burke Forsman is also his client, and the other is the uniqueness of intelligence.

Michael said that their rule is that important information is only sold once, and whether the black material is considered important information or not, it definitely belongs to the ranks of buying only once.

Otherwise, the protagonist of the black material here just spent a lot of money to buy it, and when he turned his head, he saw on the TV that the information he had just bought at a large price was made public, and he didn't want to find a way to shred Michael, and it was all Michael's material.

This means that Brooklyn needs to bid on Burke Forsman. The highest bidder gets information.

With Michael's discipline, Brooklyn was 100 percent sure that he would send a notice to Burke Forsman inviting the two to bid.

"This information is worthless to me." Brooklyn thought of a way to do it, and said on his lips

"It was I who reminded him to look into my past."

"I told him that if he drove me to a dead end, and left me no way to live, I would do anything."

"Now that you have my full background in your hand, do you think I'm such a person, my friend?" Michael was silent.

Brooklyn guessed right, he did bid. But hearing Brooklyn's threat, Michael looked down at the text message full of letters, his finger resting on the send button, but he couldn't press it.

He's a broker, a broker who would have been manipulated by the FBI two years ago. Although he has had a very prosperous life in the past two years, he knows his position, and he doesn't want to, and can't go to-to, with Brooklyn.

It's okay to say that Brooklyn loses, but what if it wins? Is he looking for death? Although at present, Brooklyn has little chance of winning, but even if Brooklyn is 100% bound to lose, what is he trying to offend a desperate madman?

He was a broker, and the broker was also a businessman. He can't do this kind of business, which is harmless and unprofitable.

Maybe Brooklyn used this sentence to bluff Burke Forsman and Anthony Kennedy, which is really just a bluff, but for Michael, this sentence is not just bluffing.

He has most of the Brooklyn information in his hands, and he has been quietly tracking and collecting information about people associated with Brooklyn.

Therefore, Michael knows very well that if something happens to Brooklyn, Ray Leonard is absolutely capable of finding himself and then solving himself with one shot.

After the death of Lyry Crewe, CPUSA split into countless small organizations, some of them became gangsters, some became KB organizations, some were just a bunch of stinky fish and shrimp, and some were the elite of the elite.

Even if Ray Leonard doesn't retaliate personally, it would be fatal for them to be found by these messy organizations due to their close relationship with CPUSA.

Even if personal affairs are not discussed, the CPUSA in New York is based in Brooklyn. Brooklyn died in a normal factional struggle, and CPUSA had nothing to say, but if there were shady people like him involved, CPUSA wouldn't mind venting on them.

CPUSA is still not to be underestimated for the FBI, but for them.
