Chapter 412: The Doctor is Fishing, and the Bait is Himself
"The spokespersons of the Business Federation are elites from all walks of life selected by the executive directors. They are responsible for various matters, big and small, of the Special Championship."
Li carefully explained his understanding of the spokesperson position: "They are not at the top of the power, but they are an inseparable channel. Since the mouthpiece of the Federation wants to see you, I hope you will be careful.
Of course, no matter what, I will always keep you safe while you are in Casimir."
There was a hint of surprise on the doctor's face beneath his mask.
Li noticed his reaction and said deliberately:
"Hey, why are you smiling like that? Don't you trust me?"
"That's not the point." The doctor regained his composure and smiled, "I just didn't expect that you would be willing to face the Business Federation for a cooperative company."
Li covered his mouth and chuckled:
"Because my master only told me to protect you, but he didn't say anything else."
The two of them smiled knowingly.
At this time, someone knocked on the door, and a voice came from outside the door:
"Excuse me, is this the room where Rhodes Island is?"
"Please come in."
After getting the doctor's promise, the door was pushed open and Markowitz walked into the room.
Markowitz was a little surprised to see that there was another knight in the house.
Li took the initiative to introduce himself:
"The fourth-rank knight 'Gravel' is now serving as the Doctor and Rhodes Island's security advisor during their stay in Casimir.
I am directly under the supervision of the Supervisory Commission. Mr. Spokesperson, please do not worry about it and continue with your work. "
Markowitz was given a warning by Li as soon as he entered the room, but his expression did not change much.
Although he is somewhat uncomfortable with his current attire and status, it doesn't mean that he is a guy who can't handle the situation and loses his composure.
"Doctor, I'm Markowitz, the spokesman for the Business Federation. I'm sorry I came in a hurry. I don't know if you received my request for a meeting in advance. I hope I didn't disturb you."
Markovitz gestured to the sofa in the room and said, "Let's sit down and talk. And you... Miss Li, if your position allows, please relax a little."
Li stood beside the doctor without taking any action:
"I prefer the feeling of being in control of the overall situation. Please let me stand here."
Markowitz didn't force anything and nodded in agreement.
Then he looked at the doctor who sat opposite him and asked:
"Are you the person in charge of Rhodes Island?"
"Would you be surprised if I said no?" the doctor suddenly said teasingly.
Markowitz was a little stunned by the doctor's sudden question, but it only took a moment for him to adjust his facial expression.
"It seems that you are a humorous person, Doctor." Markowitz coughed lightly and took the initiative to continue, "I have read some information about Rhodes Island. Although I am not a professional, fighting against mineralogy and other related things is definitely not an easy task.
On behalf of Casimir, I would like to thank Rhode Island for its contribution to Casimir athletics."
The doctor looked at Markowitz silently, just looked at him silently.
Facing the doctor's gaze, which was not sharp but rather gentle, Markowitz suddenly felt oppressed and didn't know how to say many of the words that were on his lips.
The topic suddenly jumped to Markowitz:
"Mr. Markowitz should be a very experienced employee. Do you have any suggestions for cooperation with Rhodes Island?"
Markovitz's expression froze, and he explained dryly:
“Unfortunately, I am actually just a new spokesperson and I am still in the adjustment period of my work.
If I have to give you some advice, you will inevitably have to deal with many forces in the Great Knight Territory, which may be a bit tiring, but I believe you will get used to it."
"Yes, just like you, you adapt very quickly." The doctor praised.
Markowitz smiled shyly, feeling vaguely that something was wrong with the rhythm of the conversation.
But the doctor didn't give him a chance to think and spoke again:
"To be honest, Mr. Markowitz, when I saw you, I felt a sense of mutual understanding."
Markowitz: ?
Facing his curious gaze, the doctor shrugged and said:
"To be honest, I'm actually an amnesiac. At the beginning of my new life, I was suddenly dragged up and experienced an escape. Well, it was a thrilling escape from a natural disaster."
"Ah?" Markowitz exclaimed, "I didn't expect you to have such an experience. Sorry, I have always lived in the city and don't really understand the horror of natural disasters, but it must be terrifying.
But I did have a similar "escape" experience. After my business failed, I spent a period of my life in a daze. When it was the hardest, I couldn't even pay the rent, until someone pulled me out of that life track. "
The doctor nodded continuously:
"Yes, then I suddenly came to a new environment and was entrusted with an important task. I was really confused at the time. I didn't know anything."
Markowitz listened to the doctor's narration and his mind was unconsciously attracted.
He suddenly understood why the doctor said that the two of them sympathized with each other.
Markovitz took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, and said leisurely:
"Yes, I was suddenly brought to the side of the previous spokesperson and forced into a new environment. Before I could adapt, I received a phone call in a room that was arranged by someone...
You know, that old-fashioned handset telephone that has long been eliminated and is rarely seen by ordinary people. The voice on the other end of the phone told me that I would be the new spokesperson in the future.
So, I became what I am now.”
"Yes, so we became what we are now." The doctor sighed softly.
Markowitz looked at the doctor and smiled bitterly:
"But at least, Doctor, you seem to have a new goal of your own. You have successfully found your own way."
"Ah."
The doctor chuckled and leaned back on the sofa, looking extremely relaxed.
He seemed to be chatting with an old friend, talking about his own mental journey:
“I actually don’t know whether I found it or not, but when I was confused, I met a strange guy.
That guy was a newcomer like me, but he didn't seem to have any difficulty adapting. He made a lot of friends easily and even took me to have fun and drink with him. After getting me drunk, he threw me under the table and walked away.
Markowitz: "…it doesn't sound like a very good first meeting."
"Not good? No, it's very good, extremely good!"
The doctor laughed: "I was so envious. I was in a new environment at that time. How could I not be scared and confused? But that strange guy had a magical power. He helped me find a way of life that I could learn.
When I woke up from under the table that night, the bar was already empty, the lights were off, and I was surrounded by darkness.
I sat on the ground, not calling out for help or trying to leave. I had been surrounded by people ever since I was rescued, and I needed some time to be alone.
I didn't sleep the whole night. I was thinking, I was thinking about what I should do, no... I was thinking about what I really wanted to do in my heart!"
There was a gleam of anticipation in Markowitz's eyes.
He also wanted to know.
Even if the answer doesn't belong to him.
But the doctor suddenly stopped talking and asked:
“Markowitz, do you hate the previous speaker who brought you along and into a new environment?”
