Miss President wants to talk to you

This is outrageous!

Opposition lawmakers simply cannot stand by and watch this.

So they started frantically giving winks to the reporters in their own camp.

We absolutely cannot let Rosef slip by so easily!

The reporter received their signal, and although he had some reservations, he was bound by the principle that if he was paid, he had to do the job.

Some reporters still raised their hands.

"Madam President, do you think these two amendment proposals will pass Congress?"

Rosef said earnestly, "I believe that the members of Congress have sufficient judgment to know that if a bill can protect the lives of federal citizens, then it deserves serious discussion."

"Here, I also urge members of both parties to set aside their differences and prioritize national security."

The reporter then said, "But some senators have criticized the FBI for having too much power, and now you want to expand it even further?"

"The past is the past, the present is the present."

Rosef said, "The Federation used to be very safe, but now those foreign spies have even started using magic explosive grenades!"

"Safety is slipping away from us. Must we remain inactive as before?"

The reporter said, "But this would infringe on citizens' freedom..."

Rosef couldn't take it anymore and interrupted the reporter.

What do you mean?

She asked, "Do you think we should also protect the freedom of spies to carry out their activities in our country?"

"Who are you speaking for? Who taught you to say that? What are you trying to achieve?"

Rosef's three devilish questions left the reporter speechless.

He dared not ask any more questions.

This white-haired witch has a truly terrifying aura.

Finally, the press conference ended with Rosef's complete victory.

What was originally intended as a press conference to criticize the FBI turned into the beginning of the FBI's expansion of power.

No one expected this outcome.

The most surprised person was none other than the Director of the Bureau of Investigation, Edgar Hoffer.

She was truly dumbfounded.

Before the press conference began, Edgar's most optimistic expectation of the outcome was that the Bureau of Investigation would not be shut down.

Ideally, Edgar himself should apologize to the public without involving other agents.

result.

Eleanor wrote a speech, and Rosef gave a speech.

The entire public opinion has completely reversed!

Edgar remembered.

Before the press conference began, Eleanor had said that the FBI's power would be greatly expanded after this incident.

So he had already foreseen this?

Edgar looked at Eleanor with an unconscious air of awe.

A single speech can turn public opinion around.

This man's power is terrifyingly immense.

……

The press conference finally ended in a delicate atmosphere.

When Rosef announced the adjournment, the reporters in the audience displayed a variety of expressions.

Some were indignant, while others seemed thoughtful.

Others were overjoyed, fully supporting Rosef and delighted with this unexpected victory.

These people's articles will be published tonight, but no matter how they are written, the tide has already turned.

Eleanor walked into his office, with Edgar following behind.

She kept her head down and remained silent, awaiting further instructions.

The FBI certainly escaped unscathed, but Edgar did not.

Someone has to take responsibility for this failed operation.

however

Eleanor suddenly turned around, looking puzzled: "Why are you still following me?"

Edgar: ? ? ?

She stood frozen at the doorway.

Edgar envisioned many possibilities.

Eleanor might coldly ask her to sign her resignation letter, might throw an accountability report in her face, or might tell her, "The president has decided to give you a dignified exit."

but

"Why are you still following me?"

This statement was not within her expectations.

"I……"

Edgar hesitated before saying, "I thought you were going to talk to me about accountability."

Eleanor had already taken off his suit jacket and hung it on the back of the chair.

"I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it."

Eleanor sat down behind her desk. "I did say that you can't escape responsibility, but now is not the time to deal with you."

What do you mean?

“Mr. Hopkins, please forgive me for asking.”

She asked, "What do you mean by 'now is not the time'?"

"The literal meaning."

Eleanor said, "There's a ton of work to do within the federal government right now, and the Bureau of Investigation just announced it's going to expand. Suddenly getting rid of you like that isn't a good thing."

Edgar remained silent for a moment.

She really wanted to ask, "So when do you plan to deal with this?"

But if you actually ask that question, you'll seem incredibly stupid.

When should it be handled?

Isn't the meaning obvious?

Eleanor can handle it whenever she wants.

Anyway, this matter is still in the archives and hasn't been closed, like a knife hanging over Edgar's head.

Whenever Elinor is in the mood, he can bring it up and get rid of Edgar.

To avoid this outcome, Edgar must do one thing.

To atone for one's crimes through meritorious service.

Of course, there are also specific considerations regarding what kind of merit one should perform.

That must be credited to something that pleases Eleanor and satisfies his interests.

Edgar suddenly realized.

She only had one choice.

Chapter 50: Eleanor is petty

Should I pledge allegiance to Eleanor?

The question existed in Edgar's mind for less than a second before he came to an answer.

Her attitude finally became respectful, and she clearly called out:

"Mr. Hopkins!"

"what?"

Eleanor shuddered.

That voice is too cheesy. If you can't use it properly, don't. You, Edgar, don't have that talent.

"Please give me a chance to prove myself!"

Edgar was full of energy at this moment, "I want to continue investigating who exactly attacked you."

The moment the thought of casting a spell arises, the world instantly expands.

Edgar understood it very well.

What's wrong with being a dog?

So many people want to be that person, but no one has the connections!

Based on the president's trust and reliance on Eleanor, and Eleanor's own skillful maneuvering.

Edgar felt that his future was terrifyingly bright.
