In the evening, Luke returned home and spent a warm dinner with his family.
Regarding the decision to return to the metropolis, the old man said nothing. He has always been like this. He rarely interferes with his grandson’s decision, whether it is dropping out of school, creating the young master gang, eradicating dissidents, etc., as long as Luke considers it necessary. No objection.
Having such a grandfather is the greatest luck since Luke's journey. Without him, there would be no self.
After dinner, Luke came to Linda’s room and said straightforwardly.
"Miss Danvers, we need to talk."
The girl said grimly, "What can I talk about!"
Luke moved a chair and sat down in front of her, and said seriously.
"What are your plans for the future?"
Linda was startled. "What are you asking about this."
Luke sighed, "Don't you think your current state is wrong!"
"Have it?"
"Of course there is."
Luke sat upright, "You count yourself. How many days have you not been out? How many days have you not been shopping? How many days have you not worn clothes other than sportswear? How many days have not spoken to people outside the manor? Besides practicing martial arts every day, have you done anything else?"
"You have sealed yourself off, completely isolating yourself from the world, this is not going to work."
Linda frowned, displeased.
"What the are you talking about?"
Luke fixedly looked at her, "Are we friends?"
"Reluctantly!"
"Since I am a friend, I have to remind you that if this continues, your future life will be gloomy."
"I know that the demise of Krypton has dealt a great blow to you, but it has been so long. You should wake up. Whether you admit it or not, Krypton no longer exists. You are destined to live on Earth in the future. So, why not try to integrate into the lives of people on earth?"
The girl threw her head to one side and said angrily, "I don't want to be an earthling!"
"Then who do you want to be?"
"Kryptonian."
"Well, Miss Kryptonite, what are you going to do in the future."
"I……"
Linda's mouth was speechless, her eyes suddenly fell into a confused state, and she could see that she had no plans for the future.
Luke shrugged.
"With all due respect, if your dead parents see you now, they must be disappointed. I don't see any passion in you, just like an old man about to die. There is no difference between living and dead."
"Linda, you must get rid of your current life, find at least a job, and do basic social activities."
The girl slowly raised her head with a strange expression,
"Do you want me to work for you?"
Luke spread his hands, "If you need it, it's okay, but you haven't graduated from college. My company may not have a suitable position for you."
Linda grinned, her eyes deeper and deeper, like sharp arrows, as if she wanted to see Luke through.
Damn it! I'm thinking again.
After living in the manor for so long, Linda learned a lot about Luke from her master and two old people. In order to prevent the apprentice who was finally found from being overrun by the pig, Ling Xuzi even analyzed it in detail in front of Linda. There are several characteristics of Luke’s character: and not greedy for money, coldness and not bullying, heavy righteousness and not loyalty, cunning and not shameless, in addition to these, there are also unprofitable and unscrupulous things, etc., in a word, with him Be careful when you are together, don't be fooled by your feelings and your body.
The girl gritted her teeth and had the urge to punch him in the face, and finally resisted it and muttered,
"There are so many people around you, why are you looking for me?"
"They can't compare with you, whether it's looks, temperament, wisdom or force, the gap is too big."
The girl was very popular, and her tone followed up,
"Looking at you for such a low-handedness, let's talk, what can I do for help."
Luke: "..."
This girl is really silly in martial arts practice, and she doesn't even know her own position.
Take out the pre-prepared contract and put it on the table, "This is your future work arrangement. Take a look. If there is no problem, you will return to the metropolis with me tomorrow."
After speaking, he got up and left the room. He believed that Linda would give a satisfactory answer.
...
Voting day came as scheduled. Due to yesterday’s explosive news, many people felt that Joel Nash would lose his chance of re-election because of his foolish behavior.
But reality slapped them severely.
On that day, large-scale support for Joel Nash broke out in many areas. Supporters printed the letters "No lie, treat sincerely" on their clothes, forming a very distinctive writing art.
These people even flocked to the White House Square, cheering the president's name loudly.
Coupled with Luke's full mobilization of the power in his hands for online propaganda, for a while, Joel Nash even got the title of American hero.
His fame has risen steadily to an incredible level.
Faced with this situation, the Department of Defense and the Senate fell into a weird silence. Everyone saw that the situation was not good. The only hope now is that the statistics are not too bad.
Unfortunately, the most unwilling thing to happen happened.
At the end of the polling day, it is the vote-counting link. As the counted votes of the various states have been collected into the White House government, people in the Senate and the Department of Defense feel a shadow over the 50 states in the United States, except for 23 state capitals that have not shown results Of the remaining 27 states, 17 are in a red state.
Joel Nash represents the red color, which means that the statistics are only over half. He has been ahead of his opponent by 7 states. This gap is unimaginable. According to this trend, after the votes are counted, the gap is likely to expand to more than 10 states. .
After the data was released, many media even directly announced the results of the 2003 general election. Joel Nash was re-elected and was re-elected as President of the United States.
The success this time is completely different from four years ago. At that time, he won by accident with a very low approval rating. Now he defeated his opponent with unimaginable advantages.
After the election, Joel Nash, who has broad public support, can reorganize the cabinet without hesitation. Neither the Senate nor Congress has the ability to stop him. He took back the power of the president and became the true owner of the White House.
In the Pentagon ~EbookFREE.me~ Ruman Gunter held an emergency meeting. Eight generals in power including Sam Lane attended the meeting.
Before the meeting began, the assistant circulated the latest statistics, and when he learned that Joel Nash's approval rate was nearly 60%, the faces of everyone were complicated.
Ruman Gunter knocked on the table and attracted everyone’s attention.
"I got news from the White House that after the election, Mr. President will reorganize the cabinet... This is most likely the last time I will convene an internal meeting as Secretary of Defense."
The voice fell, and everyone looked up at the same time, their eyes somewhat dissatisfied.
Ruman Gunter laughed and said, "Don’t look at me with this look. It’s just a transfer. Before leaving, I have something to tell you. No matter how the situation changes in the future, you are not allowed to deal with the demon Gast. Speak out, this is a request and an order, and it’s rotten in my heart, understand?"
