Chapter 94: who will stop them
In the reception room, Eric's expression was very relaxed.
"Would you like a glass of orange soda?"
"No, thank you, coffee is fine."
Susan refused with a polite smile.
Eric put the soda down and shrugged, "Everyone loves coffee. To be honest, I hate the smell of orange soda. But Mr. Alastair was kind enough to send me a big case. I thought it was because of me. Because Asians have a physique, they don't like orange soda, and it seems that everyone doesn't like this soda."
Susan was a little puzzled. She didn't know why the other party kept talking about orange soda.
Does orange soda have any special meaning?
She was lost in thought.
Susan doesn't know much about the other party, but she only knows that the other party is an investment genius in the financial field who has recently gained fame, and an entrepreneur with a lot of assets.
Little is known about each other's personality and hobbies.
If it wasn't for Butcher, she believed that she would never interact with such people.
After thinking for a moment, she decided to cut to the chase, "Mr. Xavier, do you know Billy Butcher?"
"I have a little impression."
Eric doesn't deny it completely, "Is there a problem?"
"Actually, for some reason, I met Billy Butcher," she pondered for a while, organizing the language, "Butcher once told me something about the two of you."
Her implication is that I know you are their boss.
Eric was not too surprised, he knew Butcher.
Butcher is the kind of **** who will do anything to achieve his goals. He can do anything, and such trivial things as leaking secrets are simply pediatric.
"Well, that should have been a long time ago, and they told me I needed help. You know, with a guy who just lost his girlfriend and lost his wife for a long time, it's easy to be vulnerable to extremes, so I guided Hit them."
Eric put down the coffee cup and seemed to be talking about a trivial matter.
Susan has a headache, this man is more difficult to deal with than expected.
Ignoring Eric's nonsense, she continued to say in her own way, "Mr. Xavier, I don't think we need to hide each other's thoughts, we all want to deal with Walter."
What she said was decisive.
Eric was a little surprised, the Susan Rayner in his memory shouldn't be such a careless person!
In the early stage, when she dealt with Walter, she was more likely to be driven to the shelves by Butcher.
Subjectively, she knew the energy of the Water Company, so she was hesitant to deal with such a behemoth.
Her behavior is also indecisive, she will not take the initiative to attack, more is waiting for the black robe team to provide him with the criminal evidence of Walter, and then measure the value of overthrowing Walter.
Unexpectedly, she is even more eager than the black robe team now. Could it be that Bucher "convinced" her?
Eric thought wickedly.
Susan naturally couldn't hear the thoughts in Eric's mind. She looked into Eric's eyes and said, "Three days ago, a super terrorist appeared before the US military position in Syria, and they called him 'Bernach'. ."
"In the past, even if there were super terrorists, they only appeared in the United States. But this time super terrorists appeared in the US military positions and became enemies. This has a great impact on the American people, and everyone is worried about whether our soldiers can deal with it. got them."
Susan's tone was serious, "The products of Lockheed Martin, Northrop, General Electric have all become dung, and there is only one company that can solve the urgent needs of the US military, and that is Vought. Vought has its own Superheroes and supersoldiers, they can take advantage of public opinion and concerns and get into the Department of Defense."
"This is a large order of more than 40 billion US dollars, and it will also make Vought a lifeline enterprise that controls the military."
As a righteous CIA officer, she didn't want to see this happen.
This country should not be protected and controlled by these superpowers.
Eric listened to Susan quietly, took a sip of coffee, "It sounds like the situation is bad, but I think, Ms. Rainer, you should respond to your superiors and the Senate. Although I really want to Help you, but I am powerless."
He shook his head gently, wondering if he was dissatisfied with the coffee, or was rejecting Susan.
"That's exactly what I'm going to do. Now I only need one key piece of evidence, Compound No. 5. As long as we have it, we can sabotage Walter's plan to enter the Department of Defense, and even bring down the opponent!"
"So you believe I can get that thing?"
Eric leaned back, leaned his back against the back of the chair, and said calmly, "It sounds like a good idea, but unfortunately, I don't have the kind of thing you said."
Susan was not discouraged, she seemed to be waiting for Eric's words, "Your team, they are collecting Compound No. 5, I think we can cooperate in this regard and cooperate with the CIA."
It seems that the **** Bucher said everything to her!
Eric laughed, stood up, and raised his coffee cup, "Ms. Rainer, you are getting closer to the truth, but you are also putting yourself in danger."
"Dangerous situation?"
"You are trying to break people's illusions and you are also trying to undermine a huge chain of interests, Ms. Rainer, which is very dangerous."
"Yes, I know exactly what I'm doing."
"No, you don't know, because they are far more dangerous and limitless than you think."
Eric put down the coffee cup and said solemnly.
Susan smiled politely, "So, you are willing to help me obtain Compound No. 5."
......
Returning to the room, Eric saw that Harper was half lying on the sofa, enjoying the warm heat from the fireplace.
The tall and well-proportioned body curves were brightly illuminated by the fire.
On the TV screen, a vulgar comedy TV series, "College Classmates" is playing.
Seeing Eric come in, Harper smiled, "It seems that you guys had a good time talking, otherwise it wouldn't end so soon."
"Pleasure is not necessarily related to progress, but we did come to an agreement in the end."
Eric put his coat on the sofa, hugged Harper, and put his head on her shoulder, "I finally breathed the long-lost smell."
Harper was very interested in Eric's conversation with Susan just now, and wanted to know what the two talked about.
Eric then told her the general content of the conversation.
"So, you finally agreed to her."
"Hmm, even if she doesn't show up, I will release the news of Compound No. 5 to prevent Walter from entering the Ministry of Defense. Ms. Susan Rayner, just in time for her meeting..."
"Then is she really in danger?"
"Not yet, but we can't tell in the future."
Eric shook his head.
