Zola's electronic voice was obvious: "No, usually not, but Whitehorn, you must know that I can't get through to any of your phones, and I'm busy, especially with you trying to divert the organization's funds from my cloning project."
Whitehouse took a deep breath: "Your project funding will not run out; in fact, I personally sponsor you with two hundred million."
Zola Electronic Music was somewhat surprised: "Really?"
Whitehead said, "Just give me a guarantee that you won't support that yellow-skinned bastard tomorrow!"
Zola Electronic Music didn't hesitate at all: "I don't even know who this yellow-skinned bastard is. You know, programs can't lie."
Whitehead then hung up the phone, satisfied, and then called the other three board members.
but……
After hanging up the phone, his expression didn't relax at all; instead, it became even more furrowed.
Because, whether it was Strucker, Baron Zemo, or Malik, all three council members swore they had never even heard of it.
and so!
Where does Lu Ke's confidence come from?
Whitehouse held his phone, his eyes narrowed.
……
Chapter 262 My Woman Needs to Be Feeded by Myself (First Update!)
Whitehouse was very puzzled.
Even if Jia Ying's presence on Luke's side leads to Strucker, Baron Zemo, and Gideon Malik choosing not to continue supporting Whitehorse.
But that's it.
At most, they will choose to remain neutral; there is absolutely no possibility that they will support Luke.
Could it be that one of these four old guys was trying to fool him?
Whitehouse raised an eyebrow.
But Zola has already sworn an oath, and because Zola is now an electronic life form, he is unable to lie due to underlying logic.
and so……
Strucker, Baron Zemo, and Gideon Malik—among these three, is one of them lying?
but.
The reason?
What were their reasons for choosing to help Luke instead of him?
But Lu Ke shouldn't be the kind of person who makes empty promises. Since he said that, it means that two council members will definitely vote for him tomorrow.
Alexander must have been among them.
But what about the other one?
Who is it!
Whitehead couldn't understand it at all.
In fact, it wasn't just Whitehead who couldn't understand it; even Alexander Pierce and Dr. Zola couldn't comprehend it.
That night.
After finishing the case of the twenty-five bodies in the safe house, Luke returned home. He had just finished dinner with Lorna and watched Rachel's evening news. He sat down in the backyard, ready to rest for a while, when he received a call from Alexander.
Good evening, Sasha!
Lu Ke looked at the incoming call, settled himself in the recliner, and answered. He then got straight to the point: "Let me guess, you're calling about tomorrow's council meeting."
Alexander didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "You should know that I certainly won't be the first to support your motion tomorrow; that's not in line with our plan."
Lu Ke laughed and said, "Don't worry, I don't plan to expose you so soon."
Alexander frowned.
"Then who else can you persuade to help you? Besides Zola, you need someone else."
"Guess it?"
"Baron Zemo?"
Alexander was the first to name a person, not to confirm, but to rule out: "It shouldn't be him, because that guy is a staunch ally of Whitehoe. So, the person you're talking about can only be either Strucker or Gideon Malik."
Lu Ke leaned back in his recliner, listening to these words, and couldn't help but touch his chin.
"Why can't it be both of them together?"
"what!"
"..."
As Luke listened to Alexander on the phone, who couldn't help but burst into laughter as soon as he finished speaking, he raised an eyebrow.
"why are you laughing."
"I never even dreamed of this."
"Ok?"
“I’ve told you before that if Whitehead and I are mortal enemies, then Strucker and Malik are mortal enemies too.”
"Ah."
Luke nodded.
Alexander had explained to him the relationships between the six Hydra board members.
Dr. Zola is isolated and independent, with only Cypher as his subordinate. Because of his electronic life form, he does not pose a threat to the other five board members, so most of the time, everyone is willing to give Dr. Zola face.
Alexander was an ally of Whitehorn during his early years as a councilor.
The reason Whitehorn still has his own Hydra subordinates and bases in the Federation is basically because he set them up during his honeymoon period with Alexander.
But Whitehouse repeatedly brought up the story of "I was the one who stood up for you back then".
When it comes to gratitude, saying it once is considered a favor.
If you say too much, it will turn into enmity.
Whitehorn thought he could live off Alexander for the rest of his life because of this favor, but Alexander was not the kind of person who could be controlled by others.
Therefore, Alexander and Whitehorse's relationship broke down, and they became bitter enemies.
Just like Strucker and Malik were mortal enemies.
and so……
In the council meetings, if Alexander voted in favor of anything, Whitehead would always vote against it, as would Strucker and Malik.
Alexander said this, then asked with great curiosity, "So, which other council member did you persuade to support you?"
Lu Ke smiled.
"Sasha."
"What's wrong."
"Leave something to look forward to tomorrow."
"What do you mean?"
"It's no fun if you spoil it beforehand, don't you think?"
"..."
After hanging up the phone.
Luke lay on the recliner, his gaze fixed on the starry sky above Los Santos, fiddling with his phone in one hand, lost in thought.
He had already given the answer to Alexander.
But Alexander didn't believe it.
Why can't I persuade Strucker and Malik to vote for him?
pity……
If he could think of any leverage over Baron Zemo, he would have even tried to poach Baron Zemo to his side.
Whitehead's face will definitely look quite pleased with himself then.
Lu Ke thought to himself.
next second.
The phone is ringing.
Cipher's.
Luke answered the phone.
The reason for Cipher's call was similar to that of Alexander's call earlier; both revolved around tomorrow's Hydra Security Council meeting.
"Dr. Zola said that Whitehouse contacted him recently, asking Dr. Zola if he would support him tomorrow."
"What did Dr. Zola say?"
"Of course, I'm telling the truth."
"is it?"
"Whitehoe asked Dr. Zola whether he would support the Yellow Bastards tomorrow, and Dr. Zola said he didn't know anything about Yellow Bastards."
"Heh...hehe."
Lu Ke chuckled and shook his head: "It seems this old dog is clearly quite angry."
Cipher shrugged. "He's probably furious right now, knowing that Jia Ying has been with you all along."
Luke smiled and said, "This is also thanks to you and Dr. Zola for your help."
Yes.
This is why, even with Whitehorn's power, they were unable to locate Jia Ying after learning she was in Los Santos.
