After chatting with little Emily for a while and calming her down, William took off his smart glasses and put them on her face. "Little girl, can you let Sunday help you choose your favorite cartoon?"
Emily stood on the table and grabbed William's collar. "No, I don't want to leave you."
"Okay, don't worry, I'm right here." William smiled and kissed Emily's hair. "Mr. Benjamin and I have some adult things to talk about. Sit here obediently, I promise I won't leave your sight."
"Do you mean what you say?" Emily stared at William anxiously, her little hand still gripping his collar tightly without letting go.
William pinched Emily's nose and smiled. "Of course, I'm not in the mood to lie to a little girl like you."
He turned to Benjamin, who was about to contact the outside world, and said, "Wait, Arthur."
"What?" Benjamin turned to look at William in confusion. He thought for a while and asked, "Is there a problem?"
"Yes, there's a big problem."
Of course there was a problem. At least William knew very well that the mastermind behind the scenes had used Amir Barkavi, who had been killed by Carlos of the Cross, to cause trouble. It was definitely not just to occupy the White Palace.
The plot in his memory also explained the problem.
Although what was happening now was not quite the same as the original plot, it was still quite simple to figure out the mastermind's general plan.
Amir Barkavi was from the desert area, and now the mastermind behind the scenes had not only used his name to occupy the White Palace.
They had also used the breached server to use the White Palace's own Guide Egg to kill Deputy Chief Drum Bull and Air Force One together.
In this way, whether or not the nuclear crisis like in the movie would happen, the mastermind behind the scenes, the military conglomerate, would have achieved its goal. War was probably unavoidable.
After the continuous attacks on their homeland, the panicked and angry Americans and women would definitely find an outlet to vent their anger, regardless of whether the opponent was innocent or not.
As long as the Americans found the desert tycoons, whom they had long disliked, and accused them of harboring Amir Barkavi.
If they couldn't hand him over, the Americans would definitely find a reason to start a war in order to cater to the hearts of the voters.
Once the war started, who would benefit? Needless to say, it must be those military-industrial complexes.
The reason why the military conglomerates wanted to start a war was very simple. The global stock market crash and a decade without war had made their lives very difficult.
In addition, Benjamin Arthur wanted to cut military spending and control guns at this time. If Benjamin really did any of these things, the military industry, which was already having a hard time, might not be able to handle it and go bankrupt.
For these people who relied on death to survive, they had to find a reason to start a war if they wanted to live.
It was the simplest and most direct way to create an earth-shattering crisis. When war broke out, as long as there were signs of it, the stock price of any military conglomerate would definitely skyrocket.
If they could drag on the war for a few years, or even a decade, not only would they be able to come back from the dead, they would also be able to make a huge profit.
Therefore, when William told Benjamin everything, other than the fact that Amir Barkavi had already died by his hands, Benjamin could not help but show an angry and even frantic expression on his face.
He paced back and forth angrily, muttering, "How dare they, how dare they, how dare they!"
However, after a few minutes, Benjamin shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Do you know what would happen to the military conglomerates if this matter were to leak out?
Everyone in America would want to tear them apart. No, "Benjamin shook his head," No, not tear them apart. They would be dismembered directly and even their bones would be replaced with meat and distributed to other conglomerates.
God, I'd rather believe that Amir Barkavi did this for revenge. Otherwise, why would these people be so crazy? "
"Ha, don't deceive yourself, Arthur. You know that Barkavi can't be under my command. Not many people died because of my bounty, plus all his assets were detained by you and England.
Plus, he found so many thugs who are completely unafraid of death, and it's only been a month since the London attack. There's not enough time. "
"No," Benjamin still shook his head in disbelief, "This attack might be a backup plan for Barkavi's London attack in the past few years because my head of security, Martin Walker, can't be bribed that easily."
Seeing that William was hesitant to speak, Benjamin explained, "You know, when I was caught by Martin, I asked him why he did this. Is this what Martin said?"
"What?"
"He said that half a month ago, someone sent him a video. It was a video of his son, Kevin, who was confirmed to have died in the London attack, asking him for help.
Kevin didn't actually die, but he was captured. Martin had no choice but to follow the orders of the mastermind for the sake of his son's life. Moreover, he himself was terminally ill and needed a large sum of money to treat his illness. The only people who would capture Kevin in London were the Barkavi family. "
"Alright, then let's think about how to save him." Seeing that he couldn't convince Benjamin, William shrugged. Actually, he didn't care whether America would attack the desert people or not, nor did he have the ability to stop it.
This was because he knew that war was unavoidable. In his previous life, didn't America also fight a war that lasted more than ten years just because they were attacked on their own land?
If war really broke out, his bulletproof suit business would definitely increase in sales. Therefore, as long as it had nothing to do with China, William didn't want to care.
Seeing that William didn't say anything, Benjamin sat silently on the chair with a gloomy face.
He didn't feel the slightest bit of joy from rebuking William until he was speechless. After a long silence, he said helplessly, "So you're saying that war is unavoidable?"
"Isn't it obvious? Amir Barkavi, the desert devil, and that damned desert revenge organization have risked their lives to come out and declare that they're responsible for this incident.
The reason for war and the guns have been handed over to those who want to fight. The military conglomerates, oil conglomerates, and even any interest groups related to war won't let go of this opportunity.
They only need to agitate the media and shout that war is for America's safety. What can you, the head of the company, do?
Oppose?
Ha, if you dare to go against these people, all kinds of trouble will be waiting for you. Don't even think about being re-elected. It's not impossible for them to even plan to kill you again. "
"Instead of that, why don't you just go with their wishes? Who knows, you might be re-elected."
"Wait." Before William could finish his sentence, Benjamin suddenly interrupted him. He stared at William and said, "How do you know that Amir Barkavi is dead?"
"Well, did I say that?" William was shocked. He habitually put on an act and pretended to be ignorant. After a few seconds of recollection, he immediately said, "What the hell, have you been scared silly by Amir Barkavi? I'm talking about a dead devil, not a dead person.
Sorry, maybe my expression wasn't accurate enough. The meaning here is ghost, ghost, do you understand? "
