The Blacklist

Chapter 80 Reddington is in big trouble
Cooper was stunned for a moment before asking, "Is it an attack like the last time the post office was attacked?"

"It could be worse!" Carrie said, "Cooper, I think it's time to tell you about Elizabeth's husband... I'm sorry I kept it from you before!"

Seeing his serious expression, Cooper motioned him to sit down, then regained his composure and said, "Not long ago, I received a notification of Elizabeth's personal information update from the DOJ Internal Investigations Division. I learned that she applied for the annulment of her previous marriage to Tom, and it was approved. Does this have anything to do with what you want to say?"

"Yes, I supported Liz in that incident. She is a victim!" Then, Carrie told all about Tom's affairs and finally said, "The real employer of Tom is a man with the code name 'Berlin'!
"According to Reddington, the real name of 'Berlin' is Milos Pavel Kinsky. He was a former Soviet special commando and was trained by the KGB. He later planned and carried out organized crime for a long time. He is an extremely dangerous person...

"Cooper, I won't exaggerate the threat it poses to Reddington or our SER, but just because it started planning this action three years ago, we can infer that once its action officially begins, it will definitely be very serious!"

Cooper nodded in agreement with his judgment. Three years ago, Elizabeth was just a trainee profiler at the FBI New York branch. This "Berlin" spent a lot of money to arrange people to be by her side. His conspiracy must be no small matter!

Carrey continued, "Cooper, I know you are bothered by Reddington's identity, but his existence is the foundation of our SER team. Without him, our team would have no value.

“What I just said is what I experienced personally, so I believe this attack is real!

"We need to help Reddington at this time, to save his life and even his business, which is also to save ourselves!"

Cooper certainly understood this, but he was still a little dissatisfied with Carrie's bold behavior, so he said: "Richard, I agree with this matter, and I can authorize you to do your best, but you have to promise one thing, if there is a similar thing again, you are not allowed to hide it from me!"

"OK, I agree!" Carrie said with a smile. When he stood up to leave, he turned back at the door and said, "Can I call you Harold from now on?"

"Of course!" Cooper was amused by him and replied immediately.

Just as Carrey said, Reddington ran into big trouble in February. First, some of his "businesses" were targeted, and then several of his business representatives in various places were killed...

On February 2, something even more serious happened. A Czech congressman who came to power with Reddington's support and protected his interests in Eastern Europe was framed as a murderer. He had to resign and go to court to defend himself, which almost uprooted his business in the Czech Republic!

Immediately afterwards, Reddington's subordinate who was in charge of ocean logistics business in the country warned him: many middle and senior level members were in panic, and some had begun to contact other underground interest groups. The situation was very critical!

Reddington finds Carrie and tells her about this. He suspects that this is the beginning of the implementation of the "Berlin" plan, and the person in charge in the Czech Republic should be a conspirator. No one knows his true identity, but his nickname is "The Kingmaker". He has some powerful means and is the behind-the-scenes driving force behind the rise of some emerging politicians in various countries. I don't know why he acted as a pawn of "Berlin" this time.

According to the intelligence he obtained, the "Kingmaker" has secretly infiltrated the United States. It is not known what action they will take, but it is likely that they will use what they are good at - promoting a political dark horse to power.

Reddington hopes that Carrie can catch this man. He needs to know about the Czech Republic and the content of the "Berlin" plan from him.

Carrie agreed to help, but was a little confused as to why he didn't issue the blacklist task through Elizabeth this time, but came directly to her?
Hearing this, Reddington smiled bitterly and said, "Liz is privately investigating the death of her adoptive father, and she should have found out something, but now she won't answer my calls!" "You deserve it!" Carrie's evaluation was like this, "You did it, wait until Liz finds out, and see if she will hate you to death!"

"Huh? How do you know this?" Reddington asked in surprise.

"I don't know, but I can imagine it." Carrie said disdainfully, "Liz's adoptive father's cancer relapsed and he didn't have much time left. You must be worried that he would tell Liz some secrets before he died, so you personally visited him and took action to 'send him away' a few days in advance! Is that right?"

Hearing this, Reddington let out a long sigh and said, "Richard, do you know that you are terrible? I really don't understand why you know or guess these things. It really surprises and shocks me..."

"What, you want to kill me too?" Carrie sneered.

Reddington smiled bitterly. "I have thought about this, but I have a feeling that if I do it, I will be the one to die! Besides, I am in a very dangerous situation now. I may really need you to protect Liz in the future, so I can't and won't do it."

Carrie knew that what Reddington said was true. On the one hand, this was the effect of the Red Bottle of Life, and on the other hand, he believed that he really loved Liz; however, he also believed that a hero like Reddington must have thought of killing him before. Of course, that should have been before he drank the Red Bottle of Life.

After returning to the post office, Carrie noticed Elizabeth whispering with Aram, and thinking of what Reddington said, she immediately knew what they were doing.

After Elizabeth left, he found Alam and said directly: "Alam, show me what you found!"

"Ah?" Aram was stunned. "Richard, what did you say?"

"Don't play dumb!" Carrie said, "I want to know what you checked for Liz."

"This..." Alam hesitated, not knowing what to do.

"Hurry up, don't delay anything." Kerry knew Alam's character. He was nice to his friends, but not suitable for keeping secrets. In particular, he had a serious tendency to compromise with authority figures. He happened to be one of them.

"Okay, okay! But you can't tell Liz." Aram really gave in and immediately pulled up a video...

Carrie saw what it was and said, "Send this video to my email, then do something serious and check this person for me!"
