Miss President wants to talk to you

Today was the happiest day ever!

After a long while, he gradually calmed down and realized the crux of the problem.

No, I can't be happy so soon.

A single wax plate is not enough as evidence.

After all, he understood the basic principles of recording, and there were many ways to forge a recording.

The simplest way is to find two people with similar voices and have them read from the script.

If you only have a recording, others won't admit it.

We still need something else.

such as

Gus!

The Gus that Rosef mentioned possessed all the evidence, and if she could take the first step, she could protect Gus.

That's what you call a done deal, a settled matter.

but

After careful consideration, Wilkes realized that it was somewhat unlikely.

He couldn't possibly have done all this on his own before the FBI.

"Should we seek their power?"

Wilkes hesitated for a long time.

In the end, they had no choice but to accept this decision.

……

The Southern United Power Company has been able to develop to its current state thanks to a large, deep-seated organization behind it.

The Southern Alliance.

This is a special organization.

There is no publicly disclosed headquarters, nor is there an official list.

The structure is not very robust.

It's less of an alliance and more of a simple interest group.

The large landowners, bankers, railroad companies, power companies, and cotton merchants of the South…

Numerous interest groups have come together, through senators, judges, county sheriffs, and local newspapers.

Connecting the entire South together.

Normally, they would fight each other over land and business.

When the federal government reaches out to the South, they quickly sit down at the same table.

Wilkes belongs to this league.

Now, the person he is asking for help from also belongs to this alliance.

Late that night.

Wilkes arrived at a private residence with a wax tray.

There is no sign here, and no guards at the door.

But it is difficult for anyone to break into this place.

Because the tens of thousands of square kilometers of land surrounding the mansion all belong to the mansion's owner.

This is a palace.

The palace's owner was named Robert Johnson.

The largest landowner in the south, possessing countless lands and tenants, wielded immense power and influence, holding an unimaginable position and influence in the region.

Wilkes was unwilling, but he had no other choice.

Only with Robit's help.

The idea of ​​finding Gus and controlling, oh no, protecting him.

Only then can it become a reality.

Chapter 110: Wilkes's Ambitions in Progress

Wilkes entered the mansion at one o'clock in the morning.

After inquiring about his purpose, the butler asked him to wait in the reception room.

This wait lasted forty minutes.

Wilkes was anxious, but dared not urge them.

Until footsteps came from upstairs.

Robert Johnson has finally appeared.

He is nearly sixty years old, but still tall and imposing.

Her gray hair was neatly combed, and she was wearing a loose bathrobe.

Although she had just been woken up, there was no trace of sleepiness on her face.

Robert walked to the head seat and sat down.

"I heard you have something important to discuss with me?"

He said, "I sacrificed my sleep to come and hear from you, and I hope your news will not disappoint me."

Wilkes dared not be negligent.

Time is of the essence, and the Federation is conducting a vigorous search for Gus's whereabouts.

To find Gus before the Bureau of Investigation, he needed to gain Robert's support.

"I have obtained a huge secret about President Roseve."

Wilkes felt very sad when he said those words.

If he hadn't been lacking in ability, this secret should have belonged to him alone.

But we're already here.

There's no need to hide it.

Wilkes stated directly, "She is the president of the Norton Federation, yet she holds citizenship of the United Kingdom and received funds from the Kingdom during her campaign."

"In return, Roseve is now constantly betraying the interests of the Federation to the Kingdom."

“Mr. Robert, you are the pillar of the Federation in the south. You absolutely cannot ignore something like this!”

Hearing these words, Robert was completely bewildered.

"Wilks, are you conscious?"

He said sternly, "I want to see you, not to hear your nonsense!"

They're saying the federal president is a spy for the kingdom.

Is your brain okay?

"I am perfectly sober!"

Wilkes, of course, brought evidence; he produced the recording disc.

"I have been spying on the president... I have been keeping an eye on these messages, which she said to Eleanor in private conversations!"

"I recorded it all, and I'll play it for you now!"

In Robert's mansion, there was naturally a device for playing wax discs.

Wilkes operated the device himself, and the wax disc slowly rotated.

Rosef and Eleanor's voices soon filled the meeting room.

"Has that traitor Gus not been caught yet?"

"not yet."

Robert listened quietly.

Throughout the recording, he remained expressionless and did not ask a single question.

"...No matter what, I must never let anyone know these secrets!"

"Yes, Mr. President!"

The recording has finished playing.

Wilkes put away the wax tray and couldn't wait to speak.

"So, Mr. Robert, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

He said, "As long as we find that Gus and get the evidence in his hands, we will have complete leverage over Rosef!"

"At that time, Mr. Robert, the entire Federation will be at our beck and call!"

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we can't miss it!"

Wilkes became more and more excited as he spoke.

He was just waiting for Robbie's nod, and he would immediately take action, devoting all his energy to finding Gus.

however

Wilkes was disappointed.

Even after listening to the original recording, Robert's expression did not change much.

It remained as calm as ever, as if the recording was worthless.
