Chapter 606: Go through the back door and ask for monthly tickets at the end of the month!
As the manufacturing industry began to move overseas, the middle class in the United States also began to decline. The neighborhood where Duke was located used to be a middle-class community. However, as the economic situation weakened, the community began to transform into a relief area. This made people who once lived in
Duke felt very uncomfortable here. Ten years ago, this was a very warm community, and the atmosphere among every family in the community was also very good. But when he came back, everything was different.
Every young man on the street looked sneaky, looking at other people's cars and wallets, which made Duke feel very uncomfortable.
Duke originally planned to invite some of his high school classmates to have a BBQ at his home today, but after he had prepared everything, a phone call came. One of his classmates was robbed by a group of young people on the way to his house, and he had a stomachache.
He was stabbed three times and is now being rescued.
So Duke and a group of friends stayed in the hospital all day, and luckily they were finally out of danger. By the time he left the hospital, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
Only then did he remember that his daughter hadn't eaten yet...
To be honest, Duke himself felt that he was a bastard and had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father at all. When he rushed to the door of the house in a hurry, he found that the lights in the house were all on and there were voices inside, which were men's voices.
Almost as a first reaction, Duke wanted to draw his gun. But when his hand reached his waist, he realized that he had left the army long ago and where did he get the gun from.
Without any time to think, Duke immediately picked up a baseball bat from the edge of the balcony seat and rushed in!
But when he kicked the door open, he found that his daughter was sitting at the dining table, enjoying a steak. Hearing the sound of the door being kicked, he looked up and realized that it was his father. At the same time, a figure came out of the kitchen.
, holding a steak in his hand.
"Dr. Bing, do you always use this method to enter your own home? No wonder you are living in such a miserable state after receiving millions of severance pay...it costs a lot of money to repair the door."
The speaker is naturally the male protagonist Kai La.
When Kay arrived in Washington this afternoon, he did not go to the hotel arranged by Margaret. Instead, he went directly to Duke's address. But when he arrived at his house, he found that this guy was not at home. This was nothing, he only blamed himself for not notifying him.
.Just when Kai was about to call him, Duke's daughter came out.
"Yes! Sir! Sorry! Sir!" The first time Duke saw Kai, he reflexively stood at attention and said hello.
"At ease, soldier, we have left the army." Kai waved his hand and put the steak in his hand on the table. "You haven't eaten yet, come and join us."
"Yes!" I don't know why, but Duke is very used to this way of getting along. He even feels very relaxed and at ease.
Kai ignored him. He could see that Duke just hadn't been able to change his mind. He was no longer a soldier, but a civilian. This could be considered a mental illness, right? Kai didn't plan to say it in front of his children.
This kind of thing, so I skip Duke and directly ask Duke’s daughter Emily Kyle. (Duke’s original name is John Kyle, but people who are familiar with him call him Duke)
"Emily, how's it going? Is the steak Wellington I cooked good?"
Emily is a very cute child, with a round face and big eyes, a standard American cutie. She also wears a pair of small glasses and likes reading very much. It’s hard to imagine that her mother is such a bastard.
Emily's mother is a very beautiful woman whom Duke met during a bar trip. After one night, the woman and Duke fell in love. But it turns out that most of this so-called love at first sight is just a matter of sight.
Sex arouses her, both to Duke and to her.
After they got married, they were sweet for a short period of time, and then Duke started doing missions all over the world, and the woman became restless. She took Duke's money and fooled around, and every time Duke found out, the woman pretended to be pitiful.
She even criticized her, saying that Duke didn't care about her and would only do tasks and tasks and never accompany her. In short, this woman's palace fighting skills were very high and she made Duke look around.
Their marriage did not improve until their daughter Emily was born, but this woman did not plan to divorce, and even if she relied on Duke, Duke would not let him go. So this woman began to act unscrupulously. As soon as Duke went on a mission, she took the child away
Leaving Duke's mother behind, she was happy everywhere. This also resulted in Emily growing up with her grandmother despite having both parents.
Finally, when Duke left the army, the woman, perhaps coveting a large severance package, divorced Duke directly and demanded custody of Emily.
Of course Duke was not happy.
As a result, Emily proposed a deal. Duke would give her a large sum of money, and she would give up custody and even visitation rights.
So...that's why Duke is so poor now.
"It's delicious!" Emily smiled sweetly. Duke is undoubtedly very outstanding as a soldier, and he is also good as a male companion. This guy has always been popular in the bar because he can do striptease, and he also has
His stage name is Magic Mike. But being a husband and father is undoubtedly very bad. It’s not that he lacks a sense of responsibility. Most soldiers have this thing, but it’s that he is not delicate enough and does not have the ability to take care of a child.
So Emily can only ensure food and clothing, and other things... she really thinks too much.
This is the best meal Emily has eaten since her grandma passed away. Duke doesn't know how to cook at all except for baking bread and making instant meals in the microwave. It's okay to eat that kind of food once in a while, but in the long run
Eating is really challenging.
After finishing the last bite of beef, Emily very obediently put away the plate and washed the dishes by herself. Not only that, she also helped clean up the kitchen and throw away the garbage. She was like a little angel.
While eating, Kai looked at Emily and felt that Duke was a bastard.
After doing all she could, Emily planned to help Kai and Duke put away and wash the dishes, but Kai stopped him and looked at Duke sideways.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Duke has followed Kai for five years, so he naturally knew what he meant, so he immediately stood up, put away the tableware, and went to clean it up.
Let Emily talk to Kai.
"Kay, are you really John's commander?"
"Of course! I have been his commander for five years." Kai said with a smile. Sometimes the more sensible a child is, the more people feel distressed. For a child under six years old and less than seven years old to be so sensible, is she born with it?
Give me a break!
The only possibility is that the children of poor people will become rich early!
"Then is John really the best warrior as he said?" Emily asked impatiently.
Kai looked at the little girl with open arms and waving in front of him with a smile, feeling that Duke, this bastard, was so lucky.
"Of course, he is the best. My soldiers are all the best, and they can only be the best."
Emily was very interested in Duke's military career and kept asking all kinds of questions. Kay also liked to talk to her. Generally speaking, Kay didn't like children very much, because children have very weird logic and are restless.
, and noisy. But Emily is different, a little angel!
Pooh!
They lied to me to give birth to a daughter again!
…
At about ten o'clock in the evening, Emily couldn't hold it any longer. Kai asked Duke to hold Emily to take a bath and sleep. He took a bottle of beer and ran to the porch and sat on Duke's rocking chair, drinking every sip.
.
After half an hour, Duke finally came out.
"Emily asleep?"
"Well..." Duke felt that his boss was about to lecture him again.
"Duke...you disappoint me." Of course Kai had to scold him. Duke's current state is really bad. It's not like what a grown man should be at all. His work is a mess, and his life is even more messy.
You can't imagine how bad it is at Duke's house.
Kai couldn't stand it!
As a person who can fold quilts into tofu blocks, Kai will never allow his environment to be so messy! So Kai can only roll up his sleeves and tidy up Duke's house. Oh my god, can you imagine that Kai has
How many years has it been since you tidied your own house?
In the end, he actually came to Washington to clean up his own troops... It was simply...
This is not the most important thing. If Duke lives alone, Kai will not bother to care. At most, he will not go in and wait for Duke to come back, forcing him to clean up by himself!
"I'm sorry, sir." Duke didn't know what was wrong with him. He just felt that everything had gone wrong since he was discharged from the army.
"I'm too lazy to say anything else. Just treat it as your negligence, but why did you leave Emily at home alone? Don't you even have the money to hire a nanny?" This kind of nanny is not a full-time nanny;
Like the kind of part-time nanny in many American dramas, such as a female high school student?
The hourly wage for this kind of part-time nanny is not high, and even Duke, no matter how poor he is, can afford it.
"I..." Duke was speechless. He really hadn't thought about this issue at the time.
"What's the environment like around your home? You should know who you can blame if something happens to you?" Kai's tone was not fierce, he just said what made sense, and there was no point in shouting loudly.
Then, just like in the army, Kay began to scold Duke and cut him off at the same time.
After about half an hour, Kai felt that it was almost done.
"What are you going to do in the future? You can't continue to be decadent like this all day long, you still have Emily."
"I...have gotten an interview opportunity." Duke said bravely.
In fact, Duke is not to blame for not being able to find a job. After all, he never went to college and attended high school in a community high school. Most of the high schools in middle-class communities like this are public middle schools and they advocate happy education. The so-called
Happy education means that students should not feel pressured, and should learn according to their interests, and not judge success or failure based on scores.
It looks very good, but in fact, a large number of scumbags like Duke are produced. What is his interest?
To play of course!
In short, Duke joined the army after graduating from high school without learning anything, and has stayed in the army ever since. Apart from killing people and setting fires, dismantling bombs, and assembling guns, he can't do anything else. In this situation, he can do
What? What job is suitable for him?
"What job?" Kaido asked.
In the United States, most people actually hate others caring about their personal affairs, except for their comrades in arms.
"I sent my resume to the Secret Service," Duke said honestly.
Phew!!!
Kai spat out his beer.
"Secret Service?" Kai looked at Duke in surprise. The Secret Service is not an ordinary department. Their review is extremely strict. In a situation like Duke's, Kai really doesn't think highly of him. It's not that Duke is any worse...
Really...how did he get out of the army? Have you forgotten?
He beat the commander and put him in intensive care... If it weren't for someone to protect him, he and Kai would have to go to court-martial.
Duke shrugged. He knew that he did have a stain. And it was serious. But he still wanted to try. After all...he had saved the president after all, right?
"Emily... really, really likes the White House and knows the history there very well. I also feel like I can't do anything else besides this."
Kai nodded. If you ignore the messy things in the army, the Secret Service is indeed a very good place. First of all, the treatment is good and benefits are high. Secondly, it is safe and the work and rest are very regular.
Someone has said, isn’t the Secret Service supposed to protect the president at all times? How come it’s safe? Still have a regular schedule? How is that possible?
It would be wrong to think so.
It is true that the Secret Service has a heavy responsibility and its tasks are not easy.
But the problem is that the Secret Service is not a small department. The Secret Service has a total of 3,200 agents and 1,200 uniformed employees. It is a very large organization. Even if someone like Duke enters the Secret Service, don’t expect to meet him so quickly.
to the president.
He doesn't have the qualifications yet. Maybe until President Benjamin leaves office, it won't be Duke's turn to protect him.
The really important work is done by others, and the department is very large. When it comes to Duke himself, how busy can he be?
So this is indeed a good place to go.
Kai thought for a while, and felt that this matter was not inoperable. After all, Benjamin brought him here for tens of billions of arms sales. In this case, it is not too much to ask him to help with such a small favor, right?
"I know. I'll think of a way."
"Boss?" Duke's eyes widened and he looked at Kai in surprise.
"What? Looking down on me?" Kai asked angrily.
"No, no, it's just that it's the Secret Service!"
The Secret Service is definitely a key department. The nature of their special work means that they are destined to be exposed to a lot of secrets. Therefore, accordingly, the supervision of all aspects of this department will be very strict. If there is a back door, how powerful it will be.
Seeing his behavior, Kai angrily threw out an invitation letter.
Duke opened the invitation and was also surprised.
He looked at Kai.
Kai straightened the collar of his shirt and said scornfully, "Now, I am a big shot too!"
Duke suddenly became excited when he thought about the recent media reports on his boss.
"Boss, what are you going to do?"
"What to do?"
"How are you going to get me into the Secret Service?"
"Of course we should go directly to the president and his wife." Kai said matter-of-factly: "I only know them."
Duke didn't know if this would work, but after thinking about it, he thought it should be reliable.
"By the way, you and Emily went with me that day. Doesn't Emily like the White House? It just so happens that she will be my female companion." Kai remembered what Duke said just now.
