It's not like Eddie has never seen the big world in the past. The campaign life during this period has greatly increased Eddie's knowledge, and he has become a lot more experienced in dealing with people.

After greeting everyone present with a smile, Eddie led Carl into his office. After the door blocked the noise outside, the two changed their faces and stared at each other seriously.

From the smiles and wary expressions on each other's faces, both of them knew that the person coming was evil.

Carl still acted like a big boss. After taking a document bag from his bodyguard, he handed it to Eddie, who was silent.

Eddie just watched quietly and had no intention of taking it. Today is different from the past. He Eddie is no longer the small character who can be called around. In the past, I had little knowledge, so I was willing to be small for a mere 40 million, and I was busy promoting Carl's business.

But since becoming a member of the House of Representatives, Eddie's knowledge has sharply increased. Not to mention anything else, the selected funds provided by Chen Changsheng are all input in units of 100 million, and are continuously input.

You think that running for office relies solely on personal charisma, but you are wrong. Charisma is built little by little with money. The more money you spend, the more perfect your image will be.

Eddie's behavior caused some dissatisfaction with Carl, but seeing that he would have to rely on the other party's ability in the future, Carl chose to forgive him.

Carl looked at Eddie with deep meaning and said with a smile, "Eddie I think it would be better for you to read the contents. This will be good for you and me."

Seeing Carl's serious look, Eddie was not sure what the other party was thinking. It is true that the brain utilization rate has improved, and it is very simple to be able to easily learn various knowledge, but in the face of a thoughtful and illogical human being, no matter how powerful the brain is, it is useless.

After hesitating for a moment, Eddie took the document bag and prepared to take a look at its contents.

The document bag is very light, as if there are only a few pieces of paper. Naturally, with Eddie in hand, there was nothing to be afraid of. He just opened the file bag and looked at the contents.

While taking out the file, a transparent plastic bag fell on the table. Eddie glanced at it casually, and his eyes suddenly froze. Because there is a small transparent tablet in the bag, which is nzt-48.

After reading all the contents of the document with a frown, Eddie breathed a sigh of relief. There is nothing special in it, just some past information about him. The only turning point is the huge changes in Eddie in recent years and the news of nzt-48.

Looking at the information collected by Carl, Eddie was helpless. As long as people live here, they will always leave various traces. Although the information is not very detailed, it also shows that Carl has indeed been setting his sights on himself for a long time.

Regarding the detailed information about nzt-48 in the file, Eddie was instinctively nervous, but when he thought about who he was working for now, he instantly relaxed again. Of course, this kind of thing must be solved by your boss. If you do everything perfectly, wouldn't it mean that your boss has no sense of existence? This is not the consciousness a good subordinate should have.

After reading all the information in a short period of time, Eddie put down the file, suppressed his smile and asked Carl: "What do you mean? I didn't understand something."

Carl was noncommittal about Eddie's answer. He shrugged and said, "Nzt-48 is a good thing. Now the laboratory that can produce it has been acquired by me. If you want to get more nzt-48, you need to cooperate with me. Come back, Eddie, I will give you better treatment..."

Listening to Carl's words, Eddie's expression was particularly wonderful. If before, Eddie would have definitely agreed and enjoyed life. But now, it's obvious that there are greater prospects waiting for him. Wouldn't it be great to be the President of the United States? Why do I have to work for you as a laborer?

The boss still needs to deal with Carl. Eddie naturally does not want to alert the enemy. After a period of time with Carl, Eddie is ready to send Carl away.

Carl didn't get a clear reply from Eddie, and Carl looked a little unhappy, but it was his basic quality not to show off in front of others, so Carl still smiled and hugged Eddie and walked out of the office.

Eddie is also afraid that Carl will not follow martial ethics and launch a sneak attack. Before Chen Changsheng can deal with him, he will attack himself first. So after sending Carl to the roadside, Eddie decided to show off his abilities to Carl.

After taking nzt-48 for so long, Eddie certainly has some special abilities. Of course, this special ability is not a supernatural power, it's just that the brain's ability has been somewhat enhanced.

Gently hugging Carl's shoulders, Eddie covered Carl's chest with his palms, feeling Carl's old and feeble heartbeat, Eddie had already thought of his words.

Standing in front of Carl's bulletproof car, Eddie and Carl looked at the endless flow of traffic. Eddie suddenly said, "In five seconds, those two trucks will hit the truck in front."

This inexplicable sentence left Carl at a loss. He was about to ask Eddie what he meant, but then another loud noise came, attracting his attention. It was a truck that rear-ended the taxi in front.

"The driver of the truck was looking at his cell phone. The speed reached 80. The taxi in front happened to see the woman taking a taxi and slowed down. It was obviously impossible to stop in such a short distance. Everything is destined. All this shows that a car accident will occur in five seconds." Eddie looked at the scene of the rear-end collision and used the information obtained in his mind to explain what he just said.

Carl recalled the whole incident in shock. After a moment of silence, he still asked unconsciously, "How did you do it?"

Eddie heard this, looked at Carl, and said slowly, "Everything has a cause and effect. As long as I see the information, I can see some possibilities, such as your heartbeat, slight trembling, and shortness of breath. These are signs of illness. Carl, it's time for you to retire and cherish life. I suggest you go find a doctor and have a good look."

We are all making progress, just like you know nzt-48, just like I have become a parliamentarian, I hope we can all do well. "

Eddie's incomprehensible words made Carl feel a little uneasy. As a rich man, Carl naturally has his own personal doctor. The latest examination results showed that Carl is in good health. But for Eddie, Carl believed it inexplicably.

Taking one last look at Eddie's already quite mature expression, Carl got into his car with a lot of thoughts.
