The Blacklist

Chapter 275: Whether to Save People or Not Needs Consideration
In the afternoon, Reddington came to the post office, on the one hand to visit Elizabeth, on the other hand to meet Carrie and ask about the progress of things. When he heard that Kirk had been captured, he asked to meet him.

Carrie didn't stop him and let him go to meet him, hoping that he could gain some new insights.

After meeting Kirk, Reddington came to Carrie's office, sat on the sofa, picked up the teacup on the tea table and drank it all. After putting down the cup, he said, "Lee, help, save Kirk."

"Huh? Aren't you love rivals?" Carrie asked in surprise.

Reddington smiled bitterly. He was no longer surprised by the fact that he knew everything. He said, "No matter what, he is Katarina's legal husband..."

Carey added: "And he's convinced he's Elizabeth's father!"

"He is not!" Reddington said affirmatively.

Kerry glanced at him and smiled, "Why, did you do a DNA test on him?"

"I can be sure that he is not the one without testing." Reddington said firmly, "Lee, I don't believe you don't know this!"

"Okay, I admit it. I know." Carrie said, "How do you want me to save him?"

Reddington said a little embarrassedly: "Lee, I wonder if you can give him one of the red bottles?"

"Of course I have no problem with that, but are you sure he has no hostility towards me?" Kerry asked back, "If he has hostility towards me, this red bottle will be poison. Are you sure you want to give it to him?"

"This..." Reddington also hesitated, thought about it, and said, "Let's talk about this later. Kirk wants to see Liz..."

"Liz has lost her memory. Why don't you go see her later?" Carrie didn't say whether it was okay or not. She just said, "By the way, where's old Dom? Let him come and see Liz. Maybe he can help her recover her memory."

"Okay, I'll ask Demby to bring Dom over here." Reddington nodded.

At night, Carrie and Gina did not leave the post office and stayed on the ninth floor.

Elizabeth had met Reddington and Dom in the afternoon. Although her memory had not been restored, she could feel that the two were close to her. At this time, she pulled Gina to talk privately and kept Carrie aside.

Carrie was thinking about Kirk. If she just dealt with him, all problems would be solved. She would also receive crime-slaying points and a considerable amount of funds. However, his relationship with Katarina was real. If she killed him like this, Elizabeth would definitely feel uncomfortable after she recovered her memory!

If we don't kill this guy, we can't just let him go. This guy has money and means. If we don't subdue him and let him go, there will be endless trouble. From this point of view, Reddington's proposal to give him a red bottle of life is a better solution, but the premise is that the other party has no hostility, which is not up to him to decide. Just as he was thinking, Elizabeth suddenly pulled Gina to him and said, "Lee, although I haven't recovered all my memories, I believe what you, Gina, Reddington, and Dom say... In addition, I have something to tell you, that is, when I sleep these few days, I always have the same dream...

"I dreamed that I was sleeping in a house and was awakened in the middle of the night. I saw a man and a woman arguing loudly... I vaguely thought that the woman was my mother...

"Then the man tried to hit my mother, and I... I got a revolver from somewhere... I shot the man dead! I was terrified...

"Then the house caught fire and I passed out. I don't know what happened next..."

As Carrie listened, she knew in her heart that this was not a dream at all, but her childhood memory. Could it be that although the concussion caused her current amnesia, it had opened the seal of her childhood memory?
After telling her dream, Elizabeth said, "Lee, I suspect this is a true memory of my childhood, but I'm not sure. What do you think?"

"Yeah, I think so too." Carrie gave an affirmative answer, "It should be that your injury this time affected your brain's memory. Although you have forgotten some things now, you can still remember things from your childhood... Rest well, I think you will recover all your memories soon."

What Elizabeth wanted to ask was not this, but: "Lee, if this dream is my real memory, and that woman is my mother, who is that man?"

Carrie didn't know what to say. This matter was a bit complicated. He wanted to tell her everything at once, but now that her memory hadn't been restored, there were some things he couldn't say. He could only say, "Liz, I promise you, when you have restored your memory, I will let Reddington tell you everything about your life story, because you won't understand it now! I'm not making excuses, this is the truth."

Elizabeth looked deeply into his eyes, and after a while she said, "Okay, Lee, I'll wait." Then, after thinking for a moment, she said, "Reddington and Dom want me to meet Alexander Kirk. Do you think I should go?"

"Then go meet her tomorrow." Carrie said, "Kirk has always believed that you are his daughter. Of course, you are not. He was the one who sent people to kidnap you last time, and he also ordered this attack. However, his assistant changed the order and wanted to kill you and Lao Lei. Even Kirk did not expect this, and it was also his failure. I heard that you were injured, and he is regretting it now!"

"Okay, I understand." Elizabeth nodded to show that she understood - after getting to know him over the past few days, she was also very curious about Kirk, so she decided to go and meet him tomorrow.

After work on Wednesday, Carey arranged for a doctor to examine Kirk. Although he looked a little weak, he was generally doing well and there was no sign of worsening of his condition.

In that case, Carrie asked Gina to take Elizabeth to meet Kirk, and he began to consider planning an operation against Republican presidential candidate Robert Diaz. This guy was still waiting for Kirk to continue to give him financial support after solving the problem!

It is now the end of August, and there are still three months to the final formal general election. If Diaz is defeated immediately, the Republican Party will still have time to make up for it and put forward new candidates. But if Diaz is eliminated again after another month, after the state primaries, the Republican Party will lose the opportunity to fill in another person according to the election law. At that time, the Democratic candidate David Palmer will be automatically elected as long as he completes the election procedures and the number of electoral votes is not less than one-third of the total.

September was the time for Carey to make his plans. He didn't have to think too hard to figure out what to do, and the initial launch date was set as October 1st.
