The extraordinary life of a certain American comic
Chapter 138 Some family wealth Tiffany! (55 full order required)
Locke fell silent again as he looked at Otto, who was solemnly saying that he had no money to buy a plane ticket.
For the first time in his life, he doubted whether he had made the wrong decision this time.
For God's sake.
When he broke up with Stephanie, he did not regret it and doubted whether his decision was right.
But in front of him, this black-skinned Skru hybrid almost made his Tao heart collapse.
Fortunately, it was just a little bit.
Locke took a deep breath and calmed his Tao heart that was almost collapsed.
"How much do you want."
"Thirty thousand."
"How much?"
Locke couldn't hold it anymore after hearing this number, and looked at Otto: "Are you sitting in first class?"
Besides, it doesn't cost so much to fly from Washington to Paris in first class.
Otto explained: "The air ticket to Paris is indeed not expensive, but when I get to Paris, I want to find the leader Talos, and the money spent here is the big part."
Locke frowned and looked at Otto.
"What?"
"You don't think that I, a dark horse, can meet the leader just by saying I want to meet the leader." Otto said, and then gave an example: "Take you for example, can you meet the president just by saying you want to meet the president?"
Locke raised his eyebrows and opened his mouth.
Otto also reacted at this time: "No, you are a powerful person in Washington, let's take her for example, can she meet the president just by saying she wants to meet the president?"
Locke looked at Stephanie Malik standing beside him in the direction of Otto's finger.
Stephanie looked at Otto pointing at her, was stunned at first, and then shrugged.
"Actually..."
"Sorry, I was wrong."
Otto reacted again, and Stephanie in front of him seemed to have a more powerful background than Locke.
After all, Locke is just the son of a politician.
And Stephanie...
Their family can create politicians.
Damn it, I hate the powerful!
Why am I not.
Otto admitted his mistake with a serious face, then pointed at himself and looked at Locke.
"Take me for example. Can I just say I want to see the president and I can see him?"
"No."
"That's it."
Otto breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Locke to explain: "I'm back in Paris. I'm going to find a tribe member who can see the leader. I'm going to spend money to find that tribe member, so the big money is here."
Locke's mouth twitched: "30,000, isn't it too much."
Otto looked at Locke suspiciously after hearing this: "25,000 is the normal price. By the way, shouldn't you be rich?"
Locke glanced.
"I am rich."
"Then..."
"But I don't have any money."
His money is all in the joint account with his wife Esme, which is used to save money to buy a house in Manhattan.
The most important point.
Whose good man carries 30,000 US dollars around.
Don't mention him, even old Underwood never has more than 1,000 US dollars in cash.
Just then.
A sound of a drawer being opened was heard.
Locke and Otto looked in the direction of the sound.
into the eyes.
Stephanie opened a secret compartment on the floor of the monitoring room, and then took out five stacks of brand new US knives from it, and threw them directly to Otto: "I'll give you 50,000, and the remaining 20,000 is your tip. You are really good, and you have been stopping that perverted black skin."
Otto looked at the five stacks of brand new US knives in his hand, and then looked up at Stephanie who walked to Locke with her arms around her while talking.
He was silent for a while.
The next second.
Otto bent down to Stephanie without any hesitation: "Mistress!"
Stephanie listened to this title, and a happy expression appeared on her face, and she looked sideways at Locke on the side.
Locke looked at Otto, who looked unafraid of the powerful in the last second, and bowed for money in the next second. While rubbing his eyebrows in pain, he hurriedly said to Otto: "Get out, get out."
He was afraid that Otto would stay here, and he would really let Otto make his heart collapse.
Otto followed suit, called Stephanie "mistress" again, and left the monitoring room with a smile on his face, holding the $50,000 in his hand.
Wait until Otto leaves.
Locke then put down his arm that was pressing on his forehead, and looked at Stephanie speechlessly: "You also put $50,000 in cash in the monitoring room?"
Stephanie blinked.
"That money was not put there by me."
"Then..."
"That was put there by my dad. When I was a child, my dad was afraid that I would be bored, so he played hide-and-seek with me. He put cash in many places and asked me to look for it all over the manor. He said that as long as I found it, it would be mine."
"... A lot?"
"Yeah."
"Well, it's none of my business."
Locke shook his head, then faced Stephanie's half-smiley eyes, and asked after a moment of silence.
"A lot, how much?"
"I haven't counted, but it's probably around 70 or 80 thousand."
"Seven or eight hundred thousand?"
"No, seven or eight million. I still haven't found many places, so it should be more."
"..."
I hate rich people!
Stephanie looked at the expression on Locke's face and said with a smile: "Do you regret breaking up with me at that time? Say sorry to me, and I will forgive you immediately, really."
Locke looked at Stephanie, who was smiling beautifully, and looked at Stephanie with a half-smiling expression.
"I have forgiven you, Tiffany."
"Wait...you forgive me?"
"See for yourself."
Locke smiled, lowered his eyes, and once again took off the button camera that he had pinned before going to the observatory to meet the fake Stephanie and threw it to Stephanie: "You will find out the answer."
Finished.
Locke left the control room without looking back.
because……
The FBI came over.
Locke walked out of the control room and looked up. Above his head, three FBI helicopters were circling.

Not far away.
Gideon Malik, who had gray hair, an ugly face, and seemed a little disgraced, was sitting on the steps outside with a gloomy look, smoking a cigar.
Locke walked straight over.
but……
When he was five steps away from Gideon Malik, he stopped.
Gideon glanced at Locke, who had stopped, and snorted coldly, not giving Locke a good look: "Why, are you afraid of seeing me?"
At first, he thought it was his baby daughter who dumped Locke, so even though he lowered his sponsorship funds for Underwood the following year, it was still slightly higher than before.
But he didn't learn the truth until the news of Locke's marriage came and Stephanie became distraught.
At that time, he wished he could summon the Hydra army, run directly to New York, and destroy Locke.
But because of my precious daughter and the fact that so many years had passed, I gave up.
but……
How could he have such a good face when he thought that the wild boar in front of him had eaten his precious daughter and didn't even want his precious daughter?
But when he thought about it, it was the wild boar that saved him today.
Although Gideon Malik still had a straight face, he still said: "Don't worry, I won't eat you."
Locke shook his head.
"No, you stink."
"you……"
Gideon's face darkened and he looked at Locke.
Locke looked seriously at Gideon, whose face turned dark, and said seriously: "Really, I strongly recommend that you take a shower now."
Gideon looked at Locke's expression, subconsciously raised his arm and took a deep breath under his armpit.
The next second.
The stench that hit Tianling Gai made him feel dizzy.
Locke looked at Gideon who was stumbling on the spot after standing up, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately did not choose to help him.
What if this guy falls down and Pengci says what he did?
Although this is unlikely.
But it is possible.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.
Locke had no doubt that any traveler who traveled from his previous world to other worlds would think so.
It wasn't you who hit me, why should you help me?
The impact of that incident is not something you can forget if you change the world.
Fortunately, Gideon only staggered a few steps before regaining his balance, and then walked into the manor without looking back.
Locke looked at Gideon's back.
"Where are you going?"
"bath."
"Then who will entertain the FBI?"
"you."
"Isn't this good? Why don't you take a shower after entertaining?"
"Don't make me ask people to impeach old Underwood. Send these FBI people away."
Being kidnapped was humiliating enough, but to have him show up smelling bad was even worse than killing him.
Locke looked at Gideon who was walking quickly towards the house, shrugged, then turned to look at an FBI agent who just got off the helicopter and walked over and said: "You heard what Malik said, you can Gone."
The FBI agent looked at Locke who showed no stage fright when facing them.
"Who are you……"
"Rock, Rock Underwood."
"……Walk."
The FBI agent listened to Locke's self-introduction and was silent for a while. After remembering the meaning of this surname in Washington, he shook hands with Locke's right hand, and then without any hesitation, he turned towards the person who was exiting the helicopter. The detectives who came down one after another shouted: "Nothing happened here, close the team."
Orders and prohibitions.
The FBI agents who had just received gunshots from the Malik Manor and rushed over quickly boarded the helicopter again.
soon.
The three helicopters took off again, then circled over the Malik Manor before leaving quickly.
Locke withdrew his gaze and then looked at Stephanie who came out of the monitoring room.
"Where's my dad?" Stephanie came out and asked.
Locke shrugged: "I went to take a shower. This guy is careless. I'm not from your family, so he went to take a shower by himself. He asked me to stay and deal with the FBI. I didn't help and said that Frank would be impeached."
Stephanie listened to Locke's words with an expressionless face.
"Dad really wants you to be part of the family."
"hehe."
Locke smiled, then seemed to think of something, looked at Stephanie, and blinked.
"So... have you watched the video?"
"..."
