There was a platinum necklace in Lynch's hand. It was not very thick, but it was very delicate.
More importantly, it had a very special pendant hanging on it. There was no other pendant in the world!
It had appeared in front of Sister Charlie in a way that she had never imagined!
During this period of time, Sister Charlie had been thinking about how to reactivate the money in those anonymous accounts.
From the moment the money was deposited into the anonymous accounts in major banks, it did not belong to anyone but that account.
Whoever had the token could withdraw the money. It was a bit unreasonable, but it was the biggest reason.
She had a pendant in her hand, one in the bank, and one in Brother Charlie's hand. If she could not find Brother Charlie, it meant that the wealth they had obtained at such a terrible price would be meaningless!
If she could not take it out, what was the difference between it and waste paper?
The Federation was a magical country. It seemed that everything could be forgiven here. Of course, the premise was that you had to have money.
During this period of time, Charlie (Sister) deeply felt this moment. As long as she continued to take out money, she could continue to be forgiven!
Money was too important here.
She looked at the pendant in silence. After going through so much, the last bit of simplicity and naivety in her human nature had been wiped clean by the torture.
The time in the room seemed to have been paused at this moment. After two or three minutes, she opened her mouth, then coughed and asked, "Is he still alive?"
Lynch nodded. "He's still alive."
He was observing Sister Charlie. For him, observing human behavior was actually a very interesting thing. Everyone's human nature would change differently at different times and under different circumstances.
The fact that even an executioner could cry was the best proof. He was very curious. Would Sister Charlie change in any way?
"This is his necklace …" Sister Charlie's eyes were soon wet. "This is very good news for me. Can you … give it to me?"
Lynch smiled. "No!"
She looked at Lynch as if she did not know anything. Her face revealed a heartbroken expression that women often showed. If Scarface had not ruined her face, most people would have been soft-hearted.
"I don't mean anything else. It's just that … you know, he's the most important person in my life. I don't know if I'll have a chance to see him again. I just hope that it can accompany me through the darkness now."
She looked at Lynch longingly. Her excellent acting skills broke out at this moment. If Lynch did not know the special nature of the pendant, he might have agreed.
But he did not.
"I'll give you a choice. Use your pendant to exchange for your brother, or we forget that person and talk about the cooperation between us!"
Charlie hesitated. She looked at Lynch. "You seem to like to make things difficult for others."
"I never do. The choice is in your hands!"
A few minutes later, Charlie (Sister) shook her head. "I can't make any choice..."
Lin Qi pursed his lips and put away the pendant in his hand. "Then we can talk about the other plan …"
Sister Charlie was a little surprised and a little embarrassed. "Are you always like this?"
She meant that Lynch seemed to be teasing her. She was a little angry.
Lynch smiled and avoided the question. "We always have a choice, don't we?"
…
In the evening, Mr. Trumann called and briefly talked about his actions today.
"Do you know where the money is hidden?"
The relationship between the two was very strong, at least for now. So Mr. Trumann went straight to the point without beating around the bush.
Lynch's answer was also very simple and direct. "Yes."
This answer piqued Mr. Trumann's interest. "I heard that it's at least hundreds of millions, or maybe more than a billion. What are you going to do with the money?"
When he heard from the security committee that after Lynch met with Sister Charlie, the latter signed a lot of compensation agreements that were still hesitating before.
She no longer seemed to hold back, which was very unusual in itself. The security committee guessed that when Lynch was alone with her, the two sides might have reached some agreement.
For example, Lynch helped her find the money, or something else, but in short, it was related to money.
As long as it had something to do with money, it would always attract people's attention. The security committee couldn't tell Lynch directly that they also wanted a share, so they asked Mr. Trumann to do it.
Mr. Trumann and the security committee had a very deep relationship with the military. In addition to his relationship with Lynch, these words seemed to be very suitable for him to say.
Lynch didn't avoid this sensitive issue. "I don't plan to take the money, or I don't plan to hold it for myself …"
Mr. Trumann was stunned for a moment. "Tell me in detail. I'm always curious about some of your ideas."
Then, in Lynch's description, Mr. Trumann gradually understood Lynch's thoughts.
This money was actually very sensitive. The Silver Case had brought catastrophic destruction to the entire world's financial order, and at the same time, it had made many countries pay more attention to financial security issues.
The influence of the Silver Case was too great, so there would be a lot of people eyeing the money. If Lin Qi got his hands on it, it would become a hot potato.
"It's like wealth soaked in blood!"
Some people didn't care too much about "reputation" and "prestige," such as Mr. Wycliffe. People like him only cared about how much they could get. They didn't care about the notoriety in the process of getting the money.
They didn't care, but Lynch did. He didn't want to cause trouble for himself that couldn't be called trouble.
Sometimes, people were very stupid. They didn't think about the cause and effect of the development of things. They only cared about who benefited in the end.
Whoever benefited was the mastermind behind the scenes. This was very suitable for the middle and lower classes of society. It was simple and crude.
The cooperation between Lynch and Charlie (Sis) was that the money would be used to set up two foundations. The first foundation's main job was to give rewards to various researchers and leaders in various fields who promoted social progress and broke through the limits of science and technology.
The second foundation was a humanitarian foundation. Its job was very simple — to send money.
Helping those families in need was its job and value. This bloody wealth could be washed clean in the end.
It came from society, so it should be returned to society.
This was the answer Lynch gave to Mr. Trumann. And this answer really surprised Mr. Trumann!
He thought that Lynch would hold on to the money, but now, it seemed that he didn't intend to do that. Instead, he wanted to use the money to do some good.
This made Lynch's "description" in his heart more complicated. Sometimes, Lynch would do anything for money, but sometimes, he was so … noble?
He didn't know if this word was appropriate, but at least when it came to this money, he showed a noble sentiment.
Not everyone could give up hundreds of millions of wealth. Mr. Trumann knew that he couldn't give it up so decisively, but Lynch did.
Such a person exuded contradictions that made people want to explore, but also made people unable to really see through him.
"The Safety Committee did a lot of work …" Although he was noble, he still had to say what needed to be said.
After coming into contact with more and more politicians' work, Mr. Trumann had evolved from a soldier to a politician, a real politician.
At least, he wouldn't say this in the past, but now he said it so easily.
At this time, Mr. Trumann had made a decision in his heart. He would work hard with the president as his goal.
The military didn't need him to do anything. They would support him because he represented the military's interests in the Federation government.
The Safety Committee needed some help. After all, the Safety Committee had more power on some issues.
Mr. Trumann didn't want to easily start political strife, but this didn't mean that he wouldn't.
When necessary, what reason and excuse could be more serious than "national security"?
"I'll pay attention …"
After saying this, Lynch was ready to hang up the phone. Mr. Trumann talked about another issue.
"Do you still remember the bowling game you organized last time?"
"Yes, I remember. What's wrong with it?"
Mr. Trumann laughed twice on the phone. His laughter was a little strange. "Recently, I heard that Mr. President spent more time bowling. Some people have some opinions about you."
"In addition, the lady who won second place in the game seems to be a little close to Mr. President."
"This involves the safety of Mr. President. It's not good for us to do anything. You investigate on your side. Don't alarm others …"
Lynch's expression was a little strange at this time.
Lynch wasn't surprised by the first question. The previous president liked to play golf. Some people always invited him to play golf, and these people were labeled as "villains".
Now he was the same. There was no way to stop it.
If someone wanted to attack Mr. President, the best way was not to directly say that Mr. President was a muddle-headed leader, but to attack the people around him.
Who always appeared around sycophants?
There was no doubt that sycophants always appeared around the incapable ruler. If Mr. President was surrounded by a group of sycophants, then there was no doubt that Mr. President was also muddle-headed.
What surprised Lynch was the second question.
As far as he knew, Mr. President was already very old.
Sometimes that kind of sport couldn't be achieved by one person's efforts. It had to be said that if what Mr. Trumann said was true, then Mr. President's health was really good!
