"Tell me, what's going on? Why is Joey so afraid of me? It turns out that's not what I remember. He even bullied me a lot."

Even though Carter was slow to react, he still saw something was wrong from Joey's overreaction.

After patiently waiting until the end of the dinner, Carter immediately pulled Anna to the lawn outside the house and asked with some pain.

"Huh, what are you talking about? I didn't expect you to have changed so much now! You forced the Gen family away and broke their hands and feet. Who in Elmond is not afraid of you now?"

Anna snorted, as if she had just met Carter, looking at this younger brother up and down, and said at the same time:

"Now the school, including our freshly graduated class, has spread the news. They say you are Elmond's new big brother and the most powerful one ever. All the black people in the school listen to you... and the white police

I also listen to you, you take both black and white!"

"No, even if the people in Elmond are afraid of me, you have all graduated, why is Joey still afraid?"

Although Anna's "black and white take it all" seems a little different from his own understanding, Carter can still guess that Joey's overreaction may be the "sequelae" of the Gunn incident, but he never imagined that this sequela could spread to

Outside the campus. As he said, Joey has graduated and is working outside. Not to mention that Carter just wants to cause trouble. How about just one reason?

It can be said that the lives of the two of them have nothing in common except for Anna. When Carter is full and full, he wants to have sex even though he has nothing to do? Does he still have to kick three feet in front of a tree?!

Carter, who felt that he had been accused of being criticized, hurriedly defended himself and changed the subject:

"Is he messing around outside behind your back? In that case, he should really be afraid of me..."

"Don't talk nonsense, Joey is not that kind of person. Although he is a little timid, he is still very good to me. Your sister is not a fool. If he goes behind my back and messes around, will I still follow him so wholeheartedly?"

After being slapped by Jenny, Carter was slapped by Anna again. He didn't look like a big brother at all, but instead teased Anna with a mean smile:

"You already said that I was doing it behind your back. If you knew it, would it still be called carrying? Hey, sister, seriously, do you want me to help you check on Joey? Although the rumors are a bit exaggerated, but you

My brother, that is, me, it is not difficult to find some black buddies to help me do something now. You know, this kind of gossip, it sounds very easy to find out about the black people on the street."

"Forget it, you don't need to worry about my affairs. Joey is afraid of you in the first place. If you check him again, won't you scare people to death? By the way, he was making fun of you before...don't go there

Take it from your heart!"

"Pull it down, you really believe those rumors outside! I'm not that small yet, Gen... If he hadn't taken the initiative to stir up trouble, he wouldn't have ended up like this today. And! Who the hell said he had his limbs cut off?

Yes, isn’t this slandering me? I obviously... forget it... just tell Joey, I won’t remember those things, let him be a man, I, Carter, don’t have such a cowardly brother-in-law!"

The fact that Joey likes to make fun of Carter, his brother-in-law, basically has nothing to do with the current Carter. Ever since Carter traveled back in time, it was the school and the bank, and Joey basically had nothing to do with him. Now that he has left school, it is even less relevant.

Well, if it hadn't been for this family dinner, Carter hadn't seen him for more than a month, so naturally he wouldn't have taken it to heart.

Carter, who was swearing and swearing, knew very well that if rumors spread to other people, you couldn't control them at all. The next day, the sun rose as usual, and Carter seemed to have forgotten his heroic words about tracking down the "culprit" last night.

, drove an ordinary car in an ordinary car, carried a schoolbag into the classroom ordinary...

"Carter, my dad's case is going to trial tomorrow. Can you go with me?"

However, as soon as Carter, who felt he was ordinary, sat down, his "little brother" Kazim came up to him. As if he was listening to his godfather's instructions, he stood beside Carter nervously and whispered.

"It's useless for me to go, as long as a lawyer is here. Battelle has done more than 20 innocence defense cases in leaf selling cases. He is rich in experience. With him here, your father will be fine...at least, nothing will happen."

event!"

"Thank you, Carter. It's really thanks to you this time. When the court is over, please come to my house once. My mother has been thinking about cooking you a big meal to thank you! And Karim, he also wants to

You are."

The class barrier in the United States is actually a knowledge barrier constructed with various legal provisions. If you are not a professional, you cannot even understand the special terms in the legal provisions. If you want to cross this barrier and truly understand the social operation of the United States,

Rules. Either you find a way to learn on your own, or like Carter, you have the money to hire such people to serve you, otherwise you will never be able to find a good place in American society.

Although Kazim's understanding is not as profound as Carter's, he also understands that without Carter, their family alone would not even be able to hire a professional lawyer. As for the public interest lawyers provided in court...

You know what, those people are the only ones who can be useful! Who among the most powerful lawyers doesn’t go to a law firm to make a lot of money? Do charity? It’s just a waste of life...

"Hahaha, how is that little guy Kalim doing now? I remember that when I went to your house for the first time, he still doubted my intentions. He doesn't doubt my intentions anymore, right?"

Carter laughed and nodded in agreement with the request of his number one "horse boy". People said that he was the eldest brother of the black people in Elmond, but strictly speaking, Carter felt that he was Kazim's eldest brother.

As long as he helps him, he can indirectly make use of black resources. Whether it is out of classmate, friendship, or utilitarian considerations of maintaining the relationship with his younger brother, Carter believes that he should agree to Kazim's invitation.

"No, not anymore. He talks about you every day now. He often says that he wants to be like you in the future. Whoever bullies him and says he wants to destroy his family will destroy his family! You are his idol now!"

Carter:...

"Ahem, he's so clamoring, didn't Mrs. Duke cut him? He's too young to learn well!"

"No? Why do you want to beat him up? It's natural for you to be bullied and then fight back, okay? You can't just be bullied casually, right?"

Kazim shook his head blankly, not feeling that there was anything wrong with what his brother said. In fact, when he saw the Gen family leaving alone, he had the same idea as his brother.

But compared to the young Karim, Kazim hid this idea deep in his heart. Just do it when you think about it! What's the use of just talking? He's not a child...

Carter, who was deeply aware of the cultural generation gap, waved his hands in disinterest and dismissed Kazim. He could go as he pleased... Anyway, he, Carter, had no interest in being the Godfather of Douglas...

"Forget it, let him do whatever he wants. I wish Mr. Duke good luck tomorrow. Just tell me the time then, and I will go to the appointment on time!"
