Odith hung up the phone and savored what Alex said just now, feeling that she was really worried too much. She only thought that as the president of the United States, she should bear unshirkable responsibility for everything that happened, but she forgot that she is just acting president now. To be precise, even the acting president had not had time to determine it through congressional procedures. When Helena was in power, Shi Tian's big fuss in the United States had already developed to an uncontrollable level. The main responsibility should naturally be borne by her and the National Security Agency. As Helena's deputy, although she would be implicated, since she had successfully eliminated this terrifying young man and defended the country from being destroyed, as long as it was properly operated, it would not be difficult to turn bad things into good things.

Thinking of this, Odiss immediately swept away his previous worries and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He thought to himself that Alex was right, Shi Tian was really helpful in making a big fuss in the United States, otherwise he would have waited for such a good opportunity to get rid of Helena and replace him.

During the US election last year, Odith and Helena were originally rivals competing for the Democratic presidential candidate. In the eyes of the outside world, although Helena's rise was surprisingly fast, its foundation in the political arena was too shallow, and many political commentators were not optimistic about her, including Odith. Before the results came out, Odith was already considering whether to invite Helena to be his campaign aide after being elected as a Democratic presidential candidate, and increase his support among young voters and female voters.

As a result, Helena defeated Odith with a greater advantage and became the Democratic presidential candidate without any dispute. With Helena's voluntary invitation and other bigwigs in the Democratic Party, Odith became Helena's running mate. In the end, the two defeated Republican presidential candidate Maihn in the general election and successfully entered the White House, creating the first female president in the history of the United States.

The commentators who were not optimistic about Helena were naturally surprised by this result and were ashamed of it. They pointed out that Odith's joining was the key reason for Helena's victory. However, they also admitted that Helena's good image and capable style won the support of most young people and women, and performed very well. They believed that Helena and Odith, a pair of old, young, male and female, were the most perfect combination in previous US elections. Helena did not mind the comments from the outside world. Moreover, in many speeches after being elected, he publicly expressed his gratitude and affirmation for Odith's assistance in the election, and appointed him as vice president after taking office. Odith also acted very open-minded and generous in his defeat in the party's primary election, and accepted Helena's appointment amidst praise and affirmation. He seemed to be glorious.

However, Odith was extremely upset. In the first eight years of the Republican Party's rule, President Boxi, who had been re-elected for two terms, launched foreign wars many times. In addition, the United States happened to have economic decline and the unemployment rate increased, and the people had complained about the Republican Party. Therefore, no matter who represents the Democratic Party for president this time, the chances of winning were very high. In Odith's eyes, if it weren't for underestimating the enemy too much during the primary election and allowing Helena to get a bargain, the position of the president should be his place. The comments from the outside world deepened Odith's view. He even suspected that Helena used ulterior motives in the primary election and was resentful of this, which was also the main reason that prompted him to agree to cooperate with others and risk usurp the presidential position.

When Helena woke up, it was dark and she didn't know where she was in a daze. She groped and turned on the wall lamp at the head of the bed. She found that she was lying naked on the bed, covered in blood, and was shocked. After all, she was different from ordinary women, so she immediately forced herself to calm down and check the environment first. She found that except for the bed sheets, the rest were still neat and looked like the bedroom of an ordinary family. There were also several well-known magazines on the head of the bed, which was obviously not in heaven or hell.

Confidant that he was still alive, Helena's memory of everything that happened before the coma began to become clearer in her memory, but she only remembered that she seemed to be hugged by Shi Tian in the arms of the moment she was shot, and then she couldn't remember what happened. The blood on her body was obviously caused by the gunshot wound. The wound had condensed, and there were more than ten places that could be seen, which was a bit scary. After all, the female president was also a woman, and the love for beauty was inevitable. Although it was a bit inappropriate to consider such problems at this moment, thinking about the scars on her body after healing, the emotions of resentment and grief still surged up irresistibly.

After a while, Helena suddenly discovered a strange problem. She couldn't feel the pain of the wound. She thought, could she have been seriously injured and unconscious for many days? Curiously, she reached out to touch a wound. Unexpectedly, with a light touch, the blood scab on the ground outside the wound fell off. Except for a small pink dot on her skin, there was no trace of scars. After carefully examining other wounds, the same was true. This discovery made Helena both surprised and happy. She couldn't help pinching herself hard to see if she was dreaming.

Just as Helena was in the most complicated mood in her life, a dull loud noise suddenly came from a distance, accompanied by a strong tremor. Helena couldn't help but be stunned, jumped out of the bed and ran to the bedroom window. She saw the firelight in the distance red in the night sky, but the building blocked her sight and couldn't see what was going on, but she found that she was still in downtown Washington, but the lights in downtown were much less sparse than usual.

Helena first estimated the approximate location of her place from the surrounding streets and landscapes, and then looked at the night sky with red flames. The place where the accident was probably the opposite bank of the Potomac River. She suddenly shook her whole body and her face suddenly changed. She thought to herself, could it be that something happened to the Pentagon? The devilish boy was still making trouble in Washington? I was anxious to find someone to ask what had happened just now, but first saw a pile of clothes in the corner of the wall. I picked it up and saw that it was the one she was wearing, with blood stains on it, and dozens of bullet holes were covered with in front and back. I flipped through the pockets on her clothes. Fortunately, the private phone was still there and it was not damaged. I hurriedly found the phone of her assistant Rudolph. But just as I was about to call her, a thought that made her very uneasy suddenly flashed through her mind.
