ut……
In the end, the decision made by the Federation is still of the kind that can send troops.
But wait.
Wait fifteen days and wait for the new president to take office. After all, it is ten days before the current Mr. President resigns. What if there is a scandal that is annihilated by the army now?
Now Mr. President doesn't want to put a pot on himself.
If you can hide, you can hide.
Moreover, as long as there are enough benefits, for those present, any grudges and grievances can be temporarily let go. These fifteen days are also left for the Federation to operate.
For example, what benefits can be gained from this and London.
After beheading the hungry giant, the body belongs to the Federation?
The secret weapon in London, the Hellboy Federation can study and study together with London to see what is the difference between living **** creatures and humans?
But this request is probably a dream.
But this is the so-called broken window effect. London will definitely not share the Hellboy with the Federation. If this is the case, then the broken window effect can be used to fight for some other benefits.
In this way, London would not be so resistant.
The meeting came quickly and broke up quickly.
wrong……
To be precise, Lake went faster. The Pentagon and the Department of Defense plus S.H.I.E.L.D. are still working together with the President who has been in office for ten days to discuss the benefits of taking advantage of this opportunity and London.
Except for the white palace.
Newly appointed to replace Secretary Kelly and become the new Secretary of Homeland Security, Gene stopped Lake, who was about to get in the car and leave: "Tonight, Mr. Vice President has a dinner. Will we go there together?"
Lake smiled, declined directly, then got in the car and left.
It's not that he doesn't give face to the new president who takes office ten days later, nor is it that Lake is holding it, but that he is still in multi-line operations now, and his women are too busy, so how can politicians leave the vice president? Sir.
However, he declined. Lake knew the relationship between the newly appointed Secretary of Homeland Security Adam and the incoming President, so he asked Adam to help him greet him.
Lake has given face.
If the incoming president is a prudent person, then, ride a donkey, read the songbook, and walk around.
Back home.
Rachel asked curiously what happened to Lake when he came back.
Lake didn't hide from Rachel, he directly told about the fact that there are giants and demons in Scotland. Anyway, this matter can't be kept for long.
There are not only satellites of various general situations in the sky, but also many satellites belonging to the media.
Rachel was taken aback for a moment.
Lake took out his mobile phone, handed it to Rachel, and smiled: "Let’s take a look at the pictures of all kinds of hungry giants. But, say yes, this news beyond the media cannot be the first to report it. In that case, I It's too conspicuous."
If this news is going to explode, it should also be exploded by the media in London.
Rachel took the phone and kissed Lake: "Don't worry, my dear, I know how to measure it."
Lake smiled.
This sentence is true.
Rachel has always known what to do and what not to do. After all, Rachel was born as a political reporter in Washington, and his keenness on some matters is unmatched.
Ten days later.
January 20th, 2008.
The white palace changes ownership.
The new president, who was born in the democratic parties, was formally sworn in and moved into the White Palace.
There are two parties in the Federation, Republican and Democratic. The difference between the two is that, in simple terms, the Republic is on the right. The supporters are religious organizations, large corporations, veterans and white-skinned people. They are more conservative.
As for democracy, it is relatively free. Feminism, minorities, and groups with different sexual orientations basically belong to him.
As for which of the two is good and which is bad?
There is a word called Bai Zuo.
The answer... is self-evident.
As a rightist, Lake actually didn't want to come to attend, but the President's Office sent an invitation letter, and the dinner party has never been. It is not very good to go this time.
But after attending the swearing-in ceremony, Lake took a direct flight to leave Washington and returned to New York.
Lake made up his mind.
In the next eight years, no, at least, in the next four years, if you can return to Washington, you will return less. After all, in the next four years, the white buildings will no longer be the white buildings that Lake is familiar with and agrees with.
Early February.
Lake completely took back the clones scattered everywhere, and then heaved a sigh of relief.
Go downstairs.
Lake looked at Skye who was making breakfast at the bar, and blinked, "No, it's just last week. Is this holiday again?"
Skye shook his head, opened the refrigerator, took out an apple from it, and pointed to the laundry room not far away: "I have some clothes that are dirty. Take them back and wash them."
Lake said, "Very thrifty."
Skye smiled, thanked him, and said, "Also, today, I made an appointment with Aunt Hermione. I will go to the university with her to apply for a hearing certificate."
Lake nodded.
This was originally one of Hermione's plans, but who knew that the cost of giving up magic power was so high that it was not until a week ago that Hermione had come out of her weakness.
Lake thought for a while and said, "Hermione is pregnant now, so take care of you."
Skye smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will."
Lake looked at the watch in his hand, turned his head and glanced upstairs, and said to Skye: "Then you are waiting for her at home and haven't woken up yet."
Hermione is now basically the same as when Rachel was pregnant, she is very sleepy, usually does not sleep until 8 o'clock in the morning, and basically does not open her eyes.
Gardners Island!
Super inspection bureau.
At this moment, the headquarters of the Trident Spiral Twin Towers has been completely completed. Starting last week, the gates have been set up on the only bridge that enters and exits Gardners Island.
Thus.
If there is an intruder attacking from the ground, once they forcibly break through the gate, then it will take 1.5 kilometers from the gate to actually walk to the bay-crossing bridge on Gardners Island, which is enough for the headquarters to warn in advance and kill everything. Coming enemy.
In the meeting room.
While Bass and Hill were making briefings, Lake, who was sitting at the top, read the briefing outline compiled by assistant Tiffany, and nodded from time to time, indicating that he had no opinion on the implementation.
With the completion of the Gardners Island Headquarters, the Super-Inspection Bureau is fully fired this time. It is the headquarters alone. Basically, every day, selected police officers, veterans and social job-seekers from various regions come to apply for employment.
Although Gardners Island can accommodate more than 30,000 agents in the headquarters, after Hill and Bath discussed, maintaining half of the current number is actually the top priority, and there is no need to spread too much.
After half an hour.
Lake put down the briefing and said to Bath and Hill: "This year, the Department of Homeland Security and White Building allocated 30 billion U.S. dollars to the Super Investigation Bureau."
Bass and Hill looked at each other.
30 billion?
It's a whole hundred million more.
Seeing this, Lake smiled and said, "Of course, this is required."
The emergence of hunger giants in Scotland has become a hot news in the world recently. There has been a lot of buzz, and it even made people think that London was about to explode.
In order to avoid panic, London made a decision that is not yet known whether it is right or wrong.
After an operation in London, he wrapped the Hellboy directly and made his debut. The debut video is just one. The Hellboy jumped and yelled directly, holding a big knife made of a propeller and smashing a giant demon from the top of his head. Open and split in half.
The picture has to be said to be very bloody.
but……
It's rather exciting. After all, in this video, although the height and reminder dominate the giant demon, it is still as vulnerable as a slug under the sword of Hellboy.
The London stock market also stopped the trend of diving after this video came out.
But this show is for others.
The layman looks at the excitement, while the insider looks at the doorway.
At the very least, Lake knew that in this video of the Hellboy descending like an overlord, the truth was shot at the expense of at least thirty soldiers.
This 30 billion appropriation is meant for this.
The ghost knows that the hungry giants will appear in Scotland, and will they appear in the Federation? Now, apart from London, the other four overlords are gloating, and they want to keep it like this. I don't want this schadenfreude to turn into empathy.
The Super-Inspection Bureau, as the law enforcement bureau that investigates all the supernatural imaginations of the Union on the surface, this 30 billion allocation is for the purpose. Even if the devil cannot be prevented from appearing, it must be controlled at the first time.
At least it can't be the same as London this time, basically, it can be regarded as a complete abandonment of Scotland.
and.
Lake looked at Hill: "This year, S.H.I.E.L.D. funding has also doubled from last year."
Hill seemed to think of something: "The new president?"
Lake nodded.
This time, Mr. New President not only approved the increase of the Super Investigation Bureau’s 30 billion quota this year, but also treated SHIELD in the same way.
But his excuse for increasing S.H.I.E.L.D.'s budget is quite unique.
The five hegemons have the ability to solve internal affairs, but other than that, so this time, with the opportunity of the giant devil, Mr. New President directly pulled the five economically capable countries beyond the five hegemons into the gods. The SHIELD group chat expressed the seriousness of the current situation and asked them to contribute money to increase the strength of SHIELD.
obviously.
This new Mr. President seems to be inclined to SHIELD.
Under this wave of budget allocations, which is twice that of last year, basically, it is considered to be a half-crippled by Lake, hanging over there, basically just a few breaths away, S.H.I. But how to say, it can be regarded as a sigh of relief.
but……
Lake looked at everyone: "How about SHIELD has nothing to do with us. In short, it's just one thing, Federation, SHIELD can't be touched, as long as he dares to stretch out his claws, come and I will chop one.
Everyone: "..."
