The flash showed Gladstone lying on a stretcher and being carried into the ambulance. His leg was broken, as he said. (Due to caching reasons, please visit the COM website directly with your browser to watch the fastest chapter updates)

He said that when he came down from the second floor, he fell down the stairs because he was not paying attention, and then broke his leg.

In the photos taken by reporters at the scene, you can clearly see that his calf was at an angle that clearly violated the natural physiological conditions and was completely severed.

Some experts say that this kind of breakage is not caused by falling down the stairs. The tibia of the lower leg is actually very hard and not as fragile as people think.

When you fall down the stairs, there is basically very little chance that the shin bone will collide with the steps like this. It is more likely that it will be broken by external force.

But no matter how it was broken, Gladstone said he broke it himself. As an injured person, in the absence of the perpetrator, no one would consider whether he lied.

If he likes to break, break it!

Gladstone's personal attorney subsequently applied to the FBI for out-of-town assistance. Mr. Gladstone was unable to travel to Slem to assist in the investigation due to a broken leg.

The hospital concluded that if Gladstone wanted to return to normal, it would take at least three to six months, otherwise doctors would not recommend him to travel long distances.

Federal justice is sometimes fair, when most people are looking at it.

Gladstone was the focus of attention right now, so even if you wanted to take him away by force, it would not be an easy task.

The Federation is a country governed by men, and countries governed by men tend to be more humane on some issues.

For example, he must recover from his injuries before he can accept various inquiries, otherwise this is a kind of... persecution?

The people won't like this!

He bought himself precious time in his own way.

At night, in the ward, a nurse was cleaning Gladstone's mattress.

His fracture has been splinted, and he will not be able to get up and leave for a short period of time, so he will have to stay in bed for a while.

He has to relieve himself on the bed.

The ailments of rich people are always only illnesses, not pain. This may be the biggest difference between rich and poor people when it comes to diseases.

Poor people not only suffer from disease, but also feel deep pain, but rich people do not have these.

After everyone in the room left, Gladstone looked at the caregiver and said in a low voice, "No matter how much the money is, he will die."

While helping him catch his urine, the nurse replied, "The price will be very high."

"Now that Slem has started martial law, entry and exit procedures are very strict, and there are many professional guys around the target."

"He was protected in a room with no windows and only one door. To deal with him you would have to work at close range."

"The risk is too great. I'm afraid no one will be willing to take the order. It's a gamble with one's own life..."

Gladstone also worked as a broker for a period of time, and he had many contacts, whether they were big figures at the top of the federal pyramid or stinky rats in the sewers.

This nurse had worked with him more than once. There was no friendship between the two parties, it was purely a relationship of interest.

Gladstone gave him the money, and the caregiver took his own portion, and then set a bounty for him.

The order and rules of the underground world are different from those of the above-ground world. Although wealth is equally useful, the rules for using it are different.

In addition, the underground world instinctively avoids the above-ground world, so it is difficult for people who are not inside to figure out some things in it.

Gladstone gave a number that many people could not refuse, "One and a half million."

At present, assassination missions in the Federation generally range from 200,000 to 500,000, and this price is often quoted for well-known killers.

Like some overseas killers, such as the killers in Nagalier, or the killers in Marillo.

As long as they are given 20,000 yuan, they dare to pay and shoot bullets at anyone!

The killer of a local gang in the Federation only costs 50,000 yuan!

So the price is actually very, very high!

As usual, the middleman can get about 20% commission, which is 300,000.

Three hundred thousand, which is almost as much as his total income in two years!

There are not so many people hiring killers to kill everyone every day, so the business in this industry is actually not very good, and there are many low-price orders.

A low-priced item can sometimes earn several thousand yuan in income, but its risk will not be reduced just because the income is low.

There is no difference between the risk and responsibility of 20,000 yuan and the risk and responsibility of 1.5 million.

The arrest by the police and the revenge of the family members of the deceased.

The nurse was very hesitant. He really didn't want to take on this task, but Gladstone gave him too much!

"I...", he wanted to find some excuse to see if he could not take the call, but the killer who had taken the last commission had not left Slem yet.

He doesn't have many resources to carry out such a task. If he falls into another one, his reputation in this circle will plummet.

"Two million."

The nurse closed her mouth, hesitated for a long time, and then agreed.

"I know a bomber, and if you don't mind him messing up the target, I'll take him out for you."

In the opinion of the nursing staff, the only way to break through the layers of blockade and kill the old man is to blow up the entire hospital!

Gladstone shook his head, "As long as we can kill him, everything else is not a problem."

This is his last chance.

He wasn't sure if this would end everything, but there was nothing more he could do!

Against Lynch?

This was a damn good idea. It was not that he had never thought about it, but as soon as the idea came out of his heart, he rejected it.

It's not that he thinks it's wrong or impossible, but he doesn't dare to do it.

The reason I don’t dare to do it is because what will happen if I fail?

Lynch is not a politician.

And Lynch often breaks the rules when necessary.

As long as he doesn't die, he will definitely die, and it is very likely that the entire family will be evaporated!

The big capitalists in the federation are so domineering. This is not the first time they have done this kind of thing. They dare to kill even the president, let alone the chairman of a party committee who is in an extremely disadvantaged position!

At the same time, assassinating Lynch was also very difficult to accomplish.

Lynch attaches great importance to his own safety. He is usually followed by a large motorcade when traveling. Before getting off the car, there will be people watching from the commanding heights of the surrounding buildings.

Whether it is an assassination at close range or an assassination at a distance, it is not easy to succeed. With body armor and human body armor, the cost of failure is too high.

This is different from assassinating an old man.

His influence continues to decline and is far less terrifying than it was at its peak!

And he couldn't do such a thing - kill everyone.

If his revenge goes too far, it will break the rules of the game and give others behind him a bad name. Gladstone knows him well, so it is safe to deal with him.

As for after the old man is gone, he will talk to Lynch. If he can leave safely, he will give up everything.

Connor asked him if he was willing to let go. In fact, he had considered this option. The problem was that he couldn't let go now.

As long as he lets go, he will be dead!

Soon the middleman found Bomb Maniac, and he couldn't find any reason for the order of 1.55 million.

The other fifty thousand yuan is the "material fee". The explosives and the things he requested will be arranged by a middleman and sent to Slem through smuggling.

What the bomb maniac has to do is to make the big bomb and send it to the hospital, and then send the hospital to the sky.

On the other side, the old man did not show any happy expression when he learned that Gladstone had broken his leg——

Even if he wanted to show it, he couldn't.

After the jaw was shattered, the hospital performed separation surgery, and now his mandible has been completely removed.

Then the skin and flesh were sewn back together, and he looked like...a little old man whistling with a flat mouth!

Because the skin and flesh were tightened after being sutured, his lower lip was pulled back, leaving only an opening in his mouth that could fit a quarter.

This opening cannot be closed because there is no support from the mandible and muscles. In other words, he opens his mouth all the time.

This is very uncomfortable, but there is nothing that can be done.

The medical team considered a mandibular reconstruction plan, but the old man was too old and successive surgeries made his body very weak.

No one is sure whether he still has the physical fitness for major surgery, and even if he does, it will take a long time.

Sometimes when doctors solve a patient's problem, they not only have to consider the problem itself, but also consider whether the patient will become more miserable after surgery!

The old man was also used to writing in a notebook with a pencil to express his inner thoughts. He was currently communicating with Lynch.

"Now is a good time to take action. He is in the hospital and can't get out. The committee can be convened immediately."

"As long as he can't come to the scene, and after everyone's voting is over, the result will not change whether he comes here or not."

"Lynch, I need you to help me and prevent him from rushing back before the voting ends!"

The impeachment of the chairman of the committee requires 67% of the people to agree to it.

Gladstone was now at a disadvantage, but the people he had installed on the committee and within the party still held a certain number of votes.

They actually knew very well that if Gladstone could stay, their rights would not be harmed.

If Gladstone was removed from office, as his die-hard supporters, they would certainly be liquidated as well.

The effect of Gladstone's presence and absence is completely different. If he is not present, there are more opportunities for operation.

Now the old man's idea is to get him out of power first. As long as he steps down, there are many ways to suppress him!

Lynch weighed it a bit and agreed.

This favor was not only sold to a living person, but also to a dead person!

A very good deal!
