When you want to achieve a goal, you always have to give something. For example, if Kai wants to fish Marx out, he must give something. But the problem is that Kai doesn't value Marx very much, so naturally he is unlikely to give anything.
Too much price.
So who should pay the price for Marx not being thrown into the laboratory?
The answer is himself!
He needs to pay the due price for what he has done. Of course, if he wants better conditions, he must pay more, such as Wanda and Pietro!
But this proposal was rejected by Kay and Marx.
Kai did not meet Max directly, but spoke to him on the phone. Kai directly told him how to go next, and what he should give and what he could give. Wanda and Pietro were proposed by Kai on his own initiative.
cost'.
"No! Don't involve them! They are living a good life now, and they should not be involved in these things."
Marx shouted very decisively into the phone.
"Then you have to work for the government for the rest of your life and never betray, otherwise I will clean up the house, and Wanda and Pietro will also have to pay the price!" Kai said coldly, like a true villain.
Marx was frightened...but he quickly regained his composure: "I am willing to accept everything, including walking on the test stand!"
It was absolutely impossible for Marx in the past to accept such an outcome, even death!
When people have no worries, they are really not afraid of anything, but once they have worries, they will become very...how can I put it, very philistine and timid, and become easy to accept reality and humiliation!
Because they no longer live for themselves.
This is what Marx is like, he cannot accept that his children will lose everything they have because of him.
In the past few days, Wanda and Pietro came to see him every day. Pietro was a little silent, but every time Wanda came, she burst into tears. She felt the same for everything her father had experienced over the years. She knew what happened to her father.
What happened to her father? What's more terrible is that these experiences were presented to her in an extremely subjective manner with all kinds of violent emotions.
Pietro knew intermittently from his sister what had happened to his father over the years. Although he felt distressed, he was not as sympathetic as Wanda.
So he never knew how to deal with this father who suddenly appeared.
Marx was very satisfied, even if Pietro was a little alienated from him, Marx was still very satisfied, at least her daughter was very, very close to her.
To be honest, this was something he never expected at first.
He originally thought that the two brothers and sisters would only treat him like strangers. But...unexpectedly, Wanda was so close to him. This gave Max the so-called satisfaction before. Even if he were asked to die now, he would not
I feel sorry.
He got along with his children and learned about some of the experiences of the two brothers and sisters. Regarding their previous encounters, the two brothers and sisters only briefly talked about it without going into details, but even so, Marx was still heartbroken. The two brothers and sisters talked more about it.
their lives in the United States.
They live a free life. Pietro has his own food delivery business. Marx is very supportive and does not think there is anything wrong with the delivery boy. He feels that as long as Pietro is happy and can support himself, there is nothing better than this.
.
Wanda is studying. Wanda actually likes studying. She is determined to go to college. This is because she wanted to go to college a long time ago. It was her childhood wish. However, the civil war and the death of her parents made this dream out of reach.
After arriving in the United States, I discovered that... there is an opportunity to realize it.
Otherwise, she, an eighteen-year-old girl, would not specifically seek tutoring from a child under ten years old.
The fact that children all have their own goals and they work hard to achieve them makes Marx, a father, both sad and gratified.
It's sad because he didn't create good conditions for his children like ordinary parents.
He didn't even save them for college!
Don’t think that Americans have to pay for college fees themselves (referring to loans). In fact, there are still many families who save their own college tuition fees. Reports show that there are a considerable number of families in the United States, where parents and children are equally responsible for paying college tuition fees.
Responsibility. Scholarships/bursaries from various sources cover 35% of the total tuition, 23% depends on parental support, 19% and 11% of students apply for loans and work income.
No way, American universities are really expensive! One academic year is sometimes higher than the annual income of a family! But there are still many middle-class families who start saving for their children when they are very young to pay for their future education.
College expenses, maybe this part of the money cannot cover all tuition fees, but it is still a large amount of support.
Having said that, Marx is now in jail, so of course there is no need to think about his assets.
He didn't have this concept at first.
What's more important is that he has no sense of participation in the child's life!
This is what Marx really cared about.
Therefore, Marx said the above words without hesitation. He had no contribution to make, so he could not drag them down!
"Very good, Max. Someone will contact you soon." After thinking about it, Kai decided to tell the truth: "What you just said saved you. If you betrayed Wanda and Pietro without hesitation,
I will immediately send you to a secret base where no ghost can be found, and let them use you as vivisection material. However, it is now proven that Wanda and Pietro at least did not save the wrong person. Don’t worry, you don’t need to be afraid
Being used as experimental subjects, they are a mutant combat team organized by the government. You only need to use your abilities to help the government deal with some supernatural events. You will have regular benefits, social security and medical insurance, and even retirement salary and belt.
Paid leave. You don’t have to worry about never seeing Wanda and Pietro again.”
Max opened his eyes wide and was ecstatic.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What is the end of the universe?
It’s preparation!
If you work for the government without a formal establishment, you will naturally be cannon fodder. You will be responsible for anything. As for honors and credits, naturally you will not have a share. But the formal establishment is different.
This thing cannot be treated casually. The strength of the U.S. government employee unions is quite strong.
Having a system means that his own rights and interests will be protected!
Of course, the most important thing is that you don’t need to be permanently separated from your children.
…
"Well, it's him."
After Joe and Team X signed a lot of documents, they finally met Max.
A group of people were a little disappointed when they looked at a little old man chained by a huge metal collar.
They also wanted to have a strong companion, and in their team, only Ghost John was a middle-aged man, and the others were all young people, even teenagers, so they initially assumed that their teammate would be a young man.
Is this the result?
"Don't underestimate him." Old Qiao chuckled: "He almost destroyed the entire New York! He is better than you all!"
Now no one can underestimate them.
"You know, in order to get him, the White House even signed an amnesty order."
Amnesty orders are not uncommon in the United States. This is a power granted to the president by the U.S. Constitution. In history, the president of the United States has often exercised this power to ease internal contradictions and conflicts in the United States. Of course, there are also some hidden dangers in this.
It is mixed with the president's personal interests, but many times, the president will exercise the power of pardon under forced circumstances. Because during the president's term, he has to compete with various interest groups, and even the president himself may be the spokesperson of the interest groups. Even if the president does not
I am willing to bear the infamy, but in order to avoid being retaliated by interest groups, I have to endure it.
Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution of the United States of America provides that: The President, being Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of such militias as shall be called upon to perform the duties of the United States, may call upon the officers in charge of each executive department to submit any question concerning their duties.
In addition to impeachment cases, he has the power to grant suspended sentences and pardons to those who violate the laws of the United States.
That is to say, except for himself, he can pardon any criminal, no matter how serious the crime the criminal committed!
And this thing is extremely widespread.
For example, a certain president whose zipper was not in place signed 141 pardons in one day. On the last day of his presidential term, this guy signed a total of 141 pardons. These "midnight pardons" included big money, drug trafficking,
Tax evaders, as well as his younger brother who was arrested for drunk driving. Chicago millionaire Mark Rich has been wanted by the authorities for 17 years for setting the highest tax evasion record in American history. He has been charged with 51 crimes and can be sentenced to
325 years in prison. In 2000, Clinton hurriedly signed a pardon for Rich before leaving office. American media broke the news that Lian Zong decided to step down because he had accepted a large amount of political donations from Rich’s ex-wife during his term.
I used to help my old friend out of trouble. This amnesty case shocked public opinion and angered the judicial authorities.
Many years later, Meilian Zong said that he "regrets" his original decision. As for whether it is true, no one knows.
Some people find it strange that Americans respect the law very much, but why do they give the president the power of pardon? Isn’t this an act of extrajudicial favor? In fact, as long as it is a sovereign country in the modern sense, whether it is a monarchy or a republic, it is
Some of the "pardon powers" that exist are controlled by the parliaments of sovereign countries, and some are controlled by the leaders of sovereign countries. The power of amnesty in the United States is not controlled by the parliament, but is firmly in the hands of the president. Many people's power of amnesty is in the hands of the president.
It is no joke that one's life and fortune are in the hands of the president alone. This is also a reflection of the president's personal authority. If the pardon power of the United States is in the hands of Congress, then Congress may dilute the authority of the president, because those interest groups
More resources will be invested in buying off Congress instead of the president. In this way, the president will suffer losses in the political game. After all, American politics is a power game for rich people and a money game for powerful people. If the president loses one of his gains
This position will also lose some meaning if there are opportunities for interests. For example, the president will use the power of pardon to suppress those interest groups. Since interest groups in the United States often oppose the federal government, if the president has this power of pardon, many of them will
Members of interest groups may go out to please the president.
As mentioned just now, the president wants to compete with interest groups. Since he wants to compete, he must use suppression and suppression. If the president refuses to exercise the power of pardon under any circumstances, then this power may lose its meaning or even be withdrawn. Therefore,
, the president must selectively exercise the power of pardon, and cannot not exercise it completely. At least he can win over some interest groups during his term in office in exchange for a peaceful life after leaving office. In the American political world, this is actually an exchange of interests, and Americans have long been familiar with it.
, are well aware of this. This amnesty power can also ease social contradictions and conflicts at critical moments and save the overall situation. For example, in 1974, Nixon resigned due to the "Watergate Incident". Since a lot of evidence has been established, this has become a reality in the United States.
The society aroused restlessness. At that time, President Ford decisively exercised his power of pardon, pardoning all of Nixon's criminal responsibilities, allowing Nixon to successfully "escape" and step down safely. Why did Ford do this? Of course it was for the sake of the overall situation. Americans
Too much attention is focused on the president. They asked Nixon to go to jail. But Nixon is the president of the United States. To try the president of the United States is a time-consuming and labor-intensive project that consumes a lot of social resources. If this matter is allowed to ferment
If this continues, American society will not only be torn apart, but the United States may also miss many opportunities in the "Cold War" between the United States and the Soviet Union.
Therefore, Ford pardoned Nixon, and American society quickly calmed down. The U.S. government immediately turned its attention to the "Cold War" and avoided many mistakes. Americans also made a calculation. If it was because of Nixon,
, delayed a lot of things, everyone's interests will be affected, and the United States may even lose the "Cold War". In this way, it is even more uneconomical to try Nixon, because the wealth of Americans today is based on their hegemony and their ability to dominate the world.
The world has squeezed and plundered it.
In addition, this right of amnesty can also avoid certain mistakes and even encourage some capable people to correct mistakes. For example, in American society, public opinion often kidnaps the law, resulting in the inability to effectively implement federal laws, and ultimately causing injustice.
False and wrongful conviction. In this case, the President of the United States can use the power of pardon to correct the mistakes caused by populism. Another situation is that the implementation of federal laws violates the basic national conditions of the United States, or the cost of implementation is too high.
, if someone violates such laws, the President of the United States can still use the power of pardon to correct the mistake. Sometimes, because the U.S. government is too rigidly bound by federal laws, it leads to things that are old-fashioned and do not know how to adapt. In this way, criminals are given the opportunity to
Taking advantage of the opportunity, those criminals will try their best to exploit legal loopholes, but what they do will lead to a systemic crisis.
In this case, some capable people will be forced to stop the criminal behavior of these criminals at the expense of violating federal laws. They violated federal laws, but they saved the public interest, and the American people will support them.
These "righteous acts". At this time, the president can exercise the power of pardon to exempt these people from legal responsibility. This can not only take care of public opinion, but also encourage more capable people to punish those criminals.
This was also the external reason for pardoning Marx.
Of course, for now, this thing will be sealed and will not be unsealed until decades later.
At that time, it depends on what the authorities think. If they think there is no problem, they can unblock it. If they don’t want to expose it, they can continue to seal it.
"Okay then, let's meet our new colleagues."
Lao Qiao waved to the police outside, and the police opened the door.
Then he took off the collar.
Marx felt his strength return for a moment. Looking at the nervous policeman, Marx smiled: "Don't worry, I won't attack people casually."
Joe came over first: "Hello, I am Joe. Special envoy of the White House. You need to sign a bunch of documents with me to ensure that the pardon from the White House will not be wasted."
"Of course!" Marx was in an extremely good mood. Naturally, he would not resist such an important matter.
"By the way, you are going to join Team
"No need! I've already thought about it. My name is Magneto!"
