Chapter 528

The sun shines brightly.

Full of suspicion, yesterday, with the light falling to the west, a new day rose from the east to bring a new life to Miami.

There's a morning party at Drake house.

Those of Lorraine's most cherished friends are in groups of three or two. Haina and Noah are drinking tea, Carmen and Sharon are dealing with documents, Katrina is teaching fafuna to ride a horse, Lev is leading his wife and driving the children, as well as acharin and bell, who are going to dinner together, Karen and Daniel who are still alone

Except for Pierce, who is far away from home, everyone is here, keeping a short distance and passing the early morning, just like yesterday never happened.

Lorraine enjoyed the warmth of the morning glow and closed her eyes until the dark shadow covered the red world.

"Ah, it scared me last night." bell sat down next to Lorraine.

"Scared?" Lorraine opened one eye and looked at the carefree ophy and Michael in the distance. "Is there anything else in the world that can scare you?"

"Sure?" bell snapped his fingers and called for his black tea. "The party at 6 a.m. was notified four hours in advance. I've never seen you do such superfluous things, and I didn't expect I would be on the list."

"I'm telling you because you're a member of the team." Lorraine closed his eyes again and let the sun drive away the fatigue of a sleepless night.

"What about the suspect?"

"Suspicion is suspicion, and identity is identity," Lorraine said. "The foundation of the civilized world lies in the law, and the foothold of the law lies in the presumption of innocence of the suspect."

"Even one second before the conviction, the identity of the suspect is innocent, because in terms of the general environment, the person named as a suspect is always in a weak position compared with the party in charge of the judicial power."

"The presumption of innocence is the fairness given to them by the law. Even from various angles, this fairness is very easy to cause injustice, but the self restraint of the strong is a treasure. I choose to practice the right of two evils."

"Practice it..." bell sighed, "so you still think I'm a spy for the Admiralty?"

"No, I can't rule out this suspicion." Lorraine's voice was very light. "I will try my best to prove that your suspicion is true. That's my obligation to Drake chamber of Commerce. But before the suspicion is confirmed, I will still regard you as the most trusted friend and subordinate. This is my responsibility to life and the team, not just for you."

"It's a standard Drake speech." bell looked at Lorraine with complex eyes. "It's clear that you two brothers are selfish and cold-blooded bastards who have played my life beyond recognition. But why? I just can't hate you..."

"In Oriental terms, evil fate."

"Pinch yuan? What's that?"

"Destined... That."

Bell chuckled and waved his hand. "It's not destiny to be with your brother."

He took a deep breath: "Sea School... When I was at sea school, sir Leighton had already arranged my life for me."

"He said that you are not fit to obey orders, so the school will pave the way for you and arrange a small boat for you as soon as you graduate. Probably a communication ship? After all, a second lieutenant, even a lieutenant, is not suitable to directly become the captain of the escort ship."

"He wants me to be your first mate. I agree. You know, under the attention of the Lords in the house of Lords, I don't have as many choices as you do."

"Who knows, half a year before graduation, you suddenly dropped out..." bell shrunk his mouth at Lorraine. "You ran away. My life plan was torn to pieces for the first time. Obviously, I was the number one in that session, but in the two-way choice of graduation, I became the only one who lost the election."

"There are only two ways left in front of me. Go to Plymouth military port to be a lieutenant pilot foreman, and then transfer to ground service, or stay in school as a jazz assistant. With a completely blank military career, be a teacher who will never be promoted."

"Shaq appeared at that time. When Uncle Elia died and the Drake family was in the most turmoil, he unwisely accepted me who was despised by the whole house of Lords. I owe him."

Bell spits out his anger: "then I boarded the tramp. I don't know how much pressure he put on my personnel appointment and dismissal, but under his protection, I spent a really carefree time, promoted and raised like every normal marine school graduate, and owed him more and more."

"So when he asked me to come to you as a bodyguard, I was actually happy. Even if I knew that Drake's incision was black, he couldn't abide by his agreement with me. Maybe if I get off the ship with my front foot and the count Brad's house with my back foot will become a wanted criminal in Great Britain, I'm still happy."

At this point, bell stopped and looked at Lorraine. "He wanted me, didn't he?"

"Well." Lorraine still closed his eyes, "the first-class wanted was sent directly to Plymouth. However, your paper was robbed by chuck in Kingston, which became an important basis for judging your credibility at that time."

"Boom!" bell spat. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"It's not necessary?" Lorraine recalled uncertainly. "Even from the current point of view, I don't think your being wanted by shack has much to do with you."

"But my title was almost completely deprived!"

"That's just an incidental result. Just like when we bombard the enemy ship with artillery, no matter whether the enemy ship will sink or not, the shells fired will certainly sink. But no one will consider the mood of the shells before firing. It's only incidental and has nothing to do with the shelling itself."

"You two brothers really..."

Bell language is over.

He opened his mouth and searched for the right adjectives, but his mind was blank until he couldn't find them in the end.

He stood up angrily: "in short, your two brothers are sure to eat. I will let you slaughter them, won't I?"

"Although the description is not accurate... But from my heart, I do trust you."

Lorraine opened her eyes and looked steadily at Bell.

"You have received the wrong aristocratic education since childhood. Because of this, your soul has so much conscience. It is like a yoke that locks you to death."

"I'll break away!"

"Yes, please try."

Lorraine perfunctorily perfunctorized his friend and pressed bell back into his chair with his voice.

Bell put up his legs with a smelly face and thumped on the table, which immediately attracted everyone's eyes.

"Back to business! You called everyone here early in the morning and did such superfluous things just to support me? Are you worried about my isolation? Are you worried about my betrayal in the process of investigation?"

"Totally wrong," Lorraine said with an understatement. "The main thing is that I need to tell all of you. Although it's OK after morning tea, since I haven't slept all night, it's not necessary to support everyone's biological clock."

"One thing?"

"Well, the reason why Colonel Chris Emmons traveled all the way to Miami."

Lorraine beckoned the scattered crowd together and organized the sentences in a deep voice.

"In short, his Majesty George III and some of the Admiralty want us to expand the maritime group to England. The conditions given are very favorable and the guarantee is very sufficient."

"But I have estimated that we need to invest about 300000 to 500000 pounds to impact the mature shipbuilding market in England and form a strong enough competitiveness in three years."

"This is a huge sum of money. I need your advice."

Everyone is silent.

Karen stood blankly on the edge of the crowd, his eyes loose and his voice erratic.

"Your majesty and the Ministry of the navy of Great Britain... The world's largest shipbuilding market... 300000 to 500000 pounds..."

"Another... Big bet?"
