"Registered mail?"

The newly-appointed president was a little curious, "Shouldn't you handle these letters and hand them over to me?"

He glanced at the intact envelope in the secretary's hand, which was not in line with the workflow of the presidential palace.

Generally speaking, any letters mailed to the Presidential Palace will be opened and inspected to avoid dangers that may endanger the lives of readers.

For example, some viruses and poisons.

There are many synthetic poisons that can poison people just by touching the skin, not to mention some terrible viruses.

But this registered letter is obviously different.

It has not been taken apart.

The secretary looked like he knew something, "This letter is special, you'd better read it."

After the two looked at each other for a while, Mr. President nodded, "Okay, leave it here, I will look at it when I have time."

The secretary casually placed the registered letter on the head of his desk. After the secretary left, he temporarily forgot about the matter and continued working.

It was only when he got off work in the evening that he remembered that he had a registered letter that he had not yet read.

He picked up the registered letter and turned it to the front, feeling a little surprised.

The difference between registered letters and ordinary letters is that you must go to the post office to send registered letters, and the post office counter will not check the content of the letter.

But they will check whether there are any extra things attached, check the sending and receiving addresses of the letter, as well as the sender and recipient.

The more expensive postage guarantees these letters. If it is not delivered successfully during the delivery process, it can be returned to the original route, and the post office will also have a record book to record this.

So on the new envelope, in addition to more stamps, there are two clear address information.

The President simply glanced at the one-dollar stamps—a fifty-cent Federal Charter Memorial and two twenty-five-cent Memorials.

This is the most popular stamp of the Federation at the moment.

What surprised him was that the mailing address was also the Presidential Palace!

From the Presidential Palace to the Presidential Palace?

Whose prank is this?

Or...when he saw the sender's name was "Truman", he seemed to realize something.

His expression became solemn and he did not open the letter immediately.

Mr. Trueman, the former president, was assassinated.

Mr. Trueman's death seemed very peaceful to the Federation, very, very peaceful!

Some people used their powerful energy to suppress all news related to the assassination of Mr. Trueman.

Newspapers don’t report it, TV programs don’t report it, and even if there are reports, they are the kind of reports that are final.

For example, he praised Mr. Trueman for everything he had done for the Federation during his six years in office, praised his past achievements, and lamented his departure.

It ended with “He will be missed.”

There was no discussion of the more detailed issue of the assassination, no talk of the people who might be involved in the assassination, and no talk of whether there were any other possibilities behind the incident.

In this way, they quickly suppressed this assassination that should shock the world.

This is the power of capital!

Mr. President knows some of the inside story, so he is not sure whether to open this letter.

Mr. Trueman should know that he may be facing danger. Is this...his back-up plan?

Mr. President lit a cigarette, sat back on his chair, and looked at the afterglow of the setting sun in Bupen.

The sunlight no longer brings warmth to people's bodies, but only makes people feel inexplicably uneasy because it is getting dark.

After finishing the cigarette, he took out the letter knife from the drawer and cut the registered letter.

The content of the letter is not much, only one page——

...:

(The first thing that comes up is Mr. President’s name. It’s obvious that this letter is addressed to him.)

I'm sorry that I can only communicate with you in this way. If nothing else, I have already encountered an accident.

I'm not sure what happened to me, but it must have been terrible, otherwise you wouldn't be reading this letter.

I have a few things to ask you for help. In return, I will introduce you to people from the military.

First, if something happens to me, these accidents are definitely closely related to the capitalists in the Federation.

Using what happened to me as impetus continues to push the investigation into the entire incident.

You don't have to do anything yourself, there are people who will do it well, but they need some authorization from you.

Second, don’t believe any capitalist’s promises to you, and don’t believe those behind you when you decide to help me.

You need to protect your own safety and wait for the results quietly.

Third, if necessary, you can contact Lynch and he will definitely help you. You don’t need to worry about this.

But again, you have to be careful with him.

The most lethal attacks often come from behind!

Finally, take this letter and give it to Peleus, who will give you the necessary support before you step down.

…

No date, no signature, but everyone could see that the letter came from Mr. Trueman himself.

Had he expected what would happen to him?

Or……

Mr. President's mind is a little confused. If he knew before the accident that he might have an accident, why would the accident happen again?

It's like standing in front of a single-plank bridge. You know you will fall in the middle, but why do you still walk without any insurance?

He can't understand!

Just like six years ago he couldn't understand why a guy like Trueman could win!

The current president is not an idealist, like most of those who have run for the presidency.

They are all pragmatists and will only do things that are beneficial to themselves.

Such people will not understand the determination to use their own lives and everything to open up a new world even though they know it is a dead end!

In fact, he is not willing to do what Mr. Trueman told him to do. If he continues to promote the investigation of the assassination, he will inevitably offend those who created the assassination.

But Mr. Trueman gave him some temptations, which made him somewhat undecided.

"Mr. President, I'm off work. The secretary on duty today is..."

The secretary knocked on the door, and Mr. President came to his senses and answered her.

She didn't come in, she just stood outside the door and said something.

After saying that, he said goodbye to Mr. President with a smile and left here.

More staff members left the Presidential Palace one after another. Except for the emergency duty office, the bustling Presidential Palace suddenly became quiet.

His wife has not moved in yet and has no plans to move in.

For some, living in the presidential palace is an honor worth bragging about, but for others, it is nothing to brag about.

For example, if you find someone who can move in, you are not technically the current first lady.

She can't even serve a full term, and she will be kicked out from here in a year and a half. It's better not to live in from the beginning!

The president was the only one in the empty living area. He sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, but his attention was not on the TV at all.

Even his favorite TV series was in no mood to watch at this time.

He took out the letter written by Mr. Trueman to him again, and his eyes wandered on "Military" and "Lynch".

The reason why Mr. Trueman was able to win the election was that the military and Lynch gave him great support.

This was before the war broke out, and now the war has been won.

Not only has the military's strength been unprecedentedly improved, but Lynch has also been greatly improved.

His Blackstone Bank, Blackstone Airlines, Light of Tomorrow...

If these two forces will support him...

Mr. President’s breathing is a little short, so it’s not impossible to run for office again in two years!

Late at night, he put the letter in the safe. He still needed to think about some of the changes this incident had brought to him, and he had to think about it again.

After all, it was great to have the support of the military and Lynch, but it would also make him an enemy of other capitalists, and he had to figure out whether it was worthwhile.

For two days, in addition to his normal work, he was thinking about this matter and weighing the pros and cons.

On Friday, his son came to see him.

He has two sons and a daughter.

My daughter married a capitalist, but this unlucky guy left the business relatively late when the last Great Depression broke out.

I have just recovered my strength this year, and I have more than 30 million in assets. If I work harder, it is very likely that it will become more.

The eldest son joined the workforce at an early age. The strict discipline imposed on him since he was a child allowed him to let himself go after he went to college.

Currently engaged in education, he is also a young professor and is conducting research on some projects.

It was his second son who came to visit her.

As the second son grew up, Mr. President began to hold a certain amount of power and had high social influence.

Taking their father as a role model is a subconscious choice for most children. If he wants to be like his father, he will naturally be more willing to invest in politics.

Now he is only a member of the state Senate, but sitting in this position, he can move up anytime and anywhere, as long as he has enough supporters.

For Mr. President, chatting with his children is also a good choice.

He didn't take out the letter, but just talked about something similar.

"...So now I'm having a hard time making a decision, what to choose." He talked about his indecision.

His second son just thought about it briefly and came up with his own idea.

"I think you should continue to push for the investigation. Please forgive me for saying some hurtful things. Your political career is over!"

"Even if you continue to run, people will not be willing to vote for a loser, even if someone like Lynch supports you."

"So you don't need to care about what other people think. Even if you don't offend those capitalists, they still won't do anything for you."

"But if you continue to push forward with the investigation, Lynch and the military will become resources."

"With these resources, it won't be a problem for me to become governor or enter Congress!"
