"It has been learned that your personal bodyguard, Mr. Harrison, briefly left you yesterday afternoon, and then two unidentified armed men appeared in your house."

Lucy spoke clearly and spoke at a rapid pace.

"We've learned that they're legitimate security personnel, and we've learned that your security team expanded from Mr. Harrison himself to four just yesterday."

"This has never happened before, did you hear anything about the fact that you didn't expand your security team when you were shot a year ago, and now you abruptly expanded your security team to four? Why would you do this? Is it related to the military's response? Are you afraid that the military will deal with you and your family the way they did Chandler Kane?"

After Michael Grady's conciliation, the focus of public opinion has begun to shift from the Chandler Caine shooting to New York.

At this time, A's Lucy suddenly asked this question, which made everyone in the scene silent.

The reporters were taken aback.

Brooklyn is very privacy-conscious, and things like changing bodyguards and expanding the security team are unlikely to be actively leaked to the outside world. But A's Lucy spoke up.

Not only did she mention it, but she also mentioned it in great detail.

This shows that A has a better channel for collecting information than they do.

In the news industry, especially in New York, which has demanded the authenticity of news after the "rectification" of Brooklyn, the ability of the channel is directly related to salary.

"It doesn't seem like a problem."

Surprisingly, Brooklyn was not angry, and he even made a little joke.

Amid the laughter, Brooklyn's face gradually became serious.

"The military held a press conference in Washington this morning, chaired by General Michael Grady, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, at which Michael Grady did not speak at length and was concise in answering questions from reporters, but the press conference revealed a lot of information."

「E.. Y was happy to finally wait for an official response from the military, E. Y also believes that the military is coming with good intentions and trying to promote cooperation between the two sides and jointly promote the progress of the case, and the purpose of both sides is not to punish the other, but to work together to get things straight."

"At this press conference, General Michael Grady made it clear that Prosecutor Chandler Kane was not the target of the military's operation, and he made it clear that the New York shooting was not the work of the military. At the same time, General Michael Grady was friendly at this press conference."

"Although participating in the trial may cause some inconvenience to the military's work, we believe that the military will understand and find a way to overcome it."

"Since General Michael Grady said that Prosecutor Chandler Cain was not a target of military operations, I personally would like to believe him."

"But since it wasn't the military, who shot Prosecutor Chandler Kane in public?"

"Prosecutor Chandler Kane was shot on a busy street under heavy protection as an investigator, and I had to be on my guard."

Brooklyn turned around and pointed at E. "If you look closely, you'll notice that on the day prosecutor Chandler Kane was shot, we raised the security level to the highest level."

After a pause, Brooklyn added, "Prosecutor Chandler Kane seems to have foreseen the shooting when he submitted the indictment, and he deposited the indictment and evidence in the court, which is Prosecutor Chandler Kane's trust in the court, and we cannot live up to his trust."

"The increase in security is also for the sake of this trust, to provide greater protection."

"At the same time, I think it's important for me to remind you to pay attention."

"The Chandler Kane shooting has received a lot of attention, and citizens across the Federation are concerned about Chandler Kane's situation, but it's not the same thing as the court taking up the case."

Brooklyn said a lot.

The press conference hosted by Michael Grady in the morning left him a little passive, and he had to turn the situation back as soon as possible.

Brooklyn's answer blurred Michael Grady's emphasis on "cooperating with E. Y attends the trial will cause damage to the military's work", shifting the focus to the cooperation of the two sides.

Since Michael Grady likes to pretend to be a good guy and like to be amiable, Brooklyn helps him pretend to be the end, pressing the "friendly atmosphere" to the end, describing the struggle between the two sides as cooperation.

Brooklyn is very happy to hold Michael Grady at this time, if you don't hold people high, how can people fall worse when they fall?

Brooklyn's statement and Michael Grady's statement corroborate and contradict each other, both contradictory and consistent.

The speeches of the two sides were quickly reported and compared side by side, successfully setting off a wave of discussion.

In fact, it is not difficult to see through the state of the two sides maintaining peace on the surface and actually wanting to strangle each other behind their backs, and now both sides have not yet fought each other, and they are increasing the burden on each other.

Brooklyn returns home and meets the two members of the team that Harrison has selected to protect Annie.

These two people don't look like five big and three thick, their bodies are relatively well-proportioned, and when they saw Brooklyn, they subconsciously straightened their bodies and saluted, and then realized that this was not in the army, and Brooklyn was not the commander of the two, and put his hand down again.

But the two of them still stood straight.

This is just out of the army and not used to it.

Brooklyn waved his hand and motioned for the two to relax.

He spoke to Anne for a while, and only after dinner did he call Harrison into his study and ask about the new team.

Brooklyn didn't ask or even interfere when Harrison selected the team, which was to express his trust in Harrison, and now he is responsible for himself.

Harrison has always been professional when it comes to his profession.

Brooklyn gave him plenty of freedom and didn't ask for anything, which made the range of options available to him extraordinarily large.

From a professional point of view, Harrison reported to Brooklyn on the interview process, selection criteria, the professional skills of the three team members hired, and some of their resumes.

After listening to Harrison's debriefing, Brooklyn left the study and prepared to go out.

Before leaving, Anne stopped him.

Anne pulled Brooklyn and pointed to the two bodyguards standing in the door downstairs, and asked Brooklyn with her eyes.

"Did you watch the press conference hosted this morning by Michael Grady, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff?"

Brooklyn asked in a low voice, taking Anne's hand.

"Looked." Anne nodded, her expression a little serious, "They're pressuring you."

Anne is not a political novice, let alone a vase who doesn't understand anything, she can understand diplomatic rhetoric and changes in the situation.

Michael Grady's press conference was the equivalent of a letter of war sent to Brooklyn, telling him that he had locked in his opponent, decided on the venue, and was on his way.

"Yes, they're pressuring us."

Brooklyn repeated, his other hand gently resting on Annie's belly, gently covering it, feeling the little life inside.

He sighed and said, "I haven't fought against people from the military, but I've heard of their reputation."

"They are not like orthodox politicians, they do whatever it takes."

"Just like Mark Millay?" Anne gave an example.

Brooklyn smiled and nodded, "That's right, Mark Mee."

Brooklyn has not been in touch with Mark Millet since that call ended a dozen days ago.

The two sides know each other that cooperation has broken down and is now even on opposite sides.

Since then, Brooklyn has been so busy dealing with military pressure that he has hardly returned home, and when he does, he ignores it, consciously or unconsciously.

He and Anne were very tacit about it.

Anne is not a novice, she is like Brooklyn

It is clear that the complexity of the marriage of two people.

She was "sold" to Brooklyn by Mark Milley, and her marriage to Brooklyn existed as a link between Brooklyn and Mark Milley, providing a basis for cooperation and trust.

Now that Mark Mee has broken with Brooklyn, she's in an awkward position.

Purely from a profit point of view, with the breakdown of the partnership between Mark Meaille and Brooklyn, their marriage lost its meaning.

But life is not only about interests, people are emotional animals.

Anne and Brooklyn are very sure that they don't have such a strong love for each other, but they are very sure that they don't have no feelings for each other at all, and it is entirely out of interest.

"Want to talk about Mark Meere?" Brooklyn asked.

Anne withdrew her hand, covering Brooklyn's hand on her abdomen, and shook her head.

"I didn't marry you because of Mark Miri." Anne looked into Brooklyn's eyes and said, "It's my choice."

[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]

Frank turned, put his cigar aside, and sat back in his seat.

"I don't agree."

He said.

Brooklyn bowed slightly, not surprised by Frank's answer.

The reason why he didn't come to Frank on the phone with Winston in the morning was to give Winston plenty of time to talk to Frank.

He needed Winston to tell Frank what his attitude was towards Chandler Kane.

In order to solve this trouble, he did not even choose the afternoon, did not choose the phone, but waited until he came home from work, had dinner, and warmed up with his wife for a while, until now, before he came to the NYPD headquarters to find Frank in person.

Just to give Frank plenty of time to weigh up.

Therefore, he was not in the least surprised by Frank's answer.

Not only does Frank know his attitude towards Chandler Kane, but also Frank's decision.

Disagree!

Don't agree to kill Chandler Kane!

"I don't want to do that either."

Brooklyn said.

Frank bowed his head and chose to believe that Brooklyn was telling the truth.

"Who's going to do it? Me?"

Frank picked up his cigar, took a big puff, and after exhaling the smoke, he lit Brooklyn and asked

"Or you?"

He didn't say anything about finding someone to commit the murder.

Smart people know that others are unreliable, and it is not possible to find someone to commit murder.

"Do you dare? If you dare, Brooklyn, you'll go tonight. I won't stop you."

It's not about despising Brooklyn for not having guts, it's about telling Brooklyn that once he gets into human life, everything gets complicated.

Killing a Chandler Kane is simple, but the impact of killing Chandler Kane is anything but simple.

The small political group of Brooklyn + Winston + Frank was already in turmoil in the face of military oppression, and at this time, Brooklyn was involved in human life, which is likely to completely deteriorate the relationship between the three, and then the situation quickly collapsed.
