Miss President wants to talk to you

The call ended, and the busy tone echoed in the room.

Rosef stood there holding the microphone, stunned, for a long time before she came to her senses.

Her mind was still replaying Hoffer's last words.

"As expected of you, Rosef."

Does this... count as a form of recognition?

Did his clumsy acting fool Hoffer?

woo woo woo...

awesome!

Immediately afterward, to the astonishment of Eleanor and Lucy, the white-haired hamster seemed to melt away, collapsing limply into his wheelchair.

He kept making chuckling noises.

He was clearly very satisfied with his performance.

Chapter Six: How could Hoffer be so mean!

Rosef was completely absorbed in her own world, oblivious to everything else.

But Lucy didn't forget the important matter.

"Mr. Hopkins."

She spoke softly.

"Why were you so certain just now that we must refuse the President?"

Lucy's question could not be considered a challenge.

On the contrary, they were earnestly seeking advice.

Because in her view, Hoffer's reasoning was really convincing.

By helping Hoffer stabilize the situation, wasn't Rosef also helping herself?

But...

Eleanor was trying to stop it from the very beginning.

The final words on the phone, "As expected of you," also reveal a fact.

Even Hoffer believed that the real Rosefle would most likely not agree to this request.

Eleanor's judgment was correct.

why?

Lucy really couldn't understand it.

When she asked the question, Rosef, who was laughing foolishly, also perked up her ears.

Obviously.

That's something she wanted to know too.

Eleanor did not answer directly.

He knew what the two people present had the biggest question about, so he asked in return:

"Ms. Lucy, could you answer one question for me first?"

"Why do you think Miss Rosef should support Hoffer?"

Rosef turned to look at Lucy.

Right!

Why do I have to support it?

Unexpectedly, Elinor asked her a question in return. Lucy rested her chin on her hand, thought for a moment, and then said:

"Because the original policy formulated by the Madam was to stop the exchange of gold."

"In that case, wouldn't it be better to make it take effect sooner?"

Rosef then turned to look at Eleanor.

Right!

That's what I think too.

"So that's the problem."

Eleanor smiled slightly. "Since this policy is correct, why doesn't Hoffer just do it directly?"

"She remains the president of this federation, and no one has taken away her power to issue orders."

"But why did he insist on co-signing with Rosef? Isn't that strange?"

Upon hearing this, Rosef nodded.

That makes a lot of sense.

So she crossed her arms and looked at Lucy with an air of authority.

Right!

How are you going to explain this?

Lucy frowned, realizing something was amiss.

Yes.

Hoffer is the current president.

Stopping the gold exchange also falls under the president's authority.

If you really feel it has to be done, why not just give the order directly?

Why is a joint signature necessary?

Why is it necessary to get Rosef's public support?

"Because, because..."

Lucy racked her brains, and she realized something was wrong.

But I just can't quite put my finger on what's wrong.

Seeing Lucy's dilemma, Eleanor slowly said:

"Stopping gold exchange is just a pretext."

"What Hoffer really wants to do is to make this a decision that Hoffer and Rosef make together."

Lucy asked, puzzled, "Is there a problem with that?"

Cooperation between two governments is perfectly normal.

"This is a big problem!"

Elino said.

"Because Ms. Rosef had one very important identity during her campaign."

That is

"A symbol used by the public to negate Hoffer!"

Rosef blinked.

Lucy was also stunned.

They finally realized this important problem.

Eleanor shook his head inwardly.

Ultimately, they are people from the American establishment era, and there is more consensus than disagreement between the two parties.

Even during the Great Depression, they still thought about unity and cooperation.

If this were in later generations, the only place where two presidents could meet peacefully would probably be at a memorial service.

Fine, I'll show you what's what today!

"If I remember correctly, in this election, Ms. Rosef and President Hoffer received 472 votes to 59, right?"

Eleanor couldn't help but ask:

"What does such a huge gap represent?"

Lucy murmured, "Does this mean people have had enough of President Hoffer?"

"Correct."

Eleanor nodded.

"People have completely lost patience with Hoffer and are eager for change, hoping that the new government will be different from the old one."

"But now, Hoffer wants Rosef to step forward and tell everyone..."

"Actually, I agree with Hoffer."

Actually, we think the same way.

"Actually, we reached an agreement on this matter a long time ago."

"So, what will happen?"

Lucy's pupils suddenly contracted.

She finally realized how naive and foolish she had been.

Eleanor continued, "Once Rosef and Hoffer sign off on it, even if it's a correct decree."

"But from this moment on..."

"The boundary between the new government and the old government disappeared."
