Chapter 1087: Chapter 129: The Storm is Coming

In America, an invitation from Black Satan still carries some weight.

The premise of “people leave and tea cools” is that the person is really naive and has not left behind someone to inherit their power, at least part of it.

Black Satan, born in the intelligence system and able to be re-elected as a black man across two terms, is certainly not something naive.

Therefore, Wolf canceled many unimportant schedules and flew to Chicago specifically.

This is the strength of America’s most “goat.”

“Wolf, what exactly is going on between you and the California Clique?”

As soon as he arrived, Black Satan asked a heavyweight question.

The truth is often not what it appears, and as the Empire Leader historically closest to the Special Intelligence System, even with a lot of information, Black Satan still couldn’t understand the manic relationship between the California Clique and the California Elephant Party.

Yes, a manic relationship.

Could it not be manic? The situation between Chief Cheng and Niusen is already a love-hate relationship.

“Well, it’s alright; there are differences, but everyone is from California, and there are also some consensuses in certain areas.”

Wolf was not yet ready to backstab Chief Cheng; he still counted on Chief Cheng to settle his marriage alliance.

If he hastily sided with Black Satan, using the California Elephant Party as a pledge, his ending could be quite ridiculous.

After all, the California Elephant Party now has dual leaders, and he and Chief Cheng have not yet decided who’s superior.

“Alright, well, Nanxi found me; she has quite a few criticisms about your actions. To be precise, she has quite a few criticisms about one of your friends.

You should be aware of his conflict with Nanxi, right?”

Black Satan naturally knew that Chief Cheng achieved reconciliation with the California Clique through Niusen, so this was his way of pointing out to Wolf that Nanxi does not agree with their cooperation with the California Clique.

As for some deeper interest trade-offs, like the ambassador assassination involvement or something, he knew it wasn’t time to discuss those yet.

Wolf, though young, wasn’t naive; a naive person couldn’t reach the position of Chairman of the California Elephant Party Committee.

Now, this way of pointing out opportunities while holding back the most sensitive parts that could alert Wolf is an art of communication.

“Mr. Great Commander, to be honest, I do have some consensus with Chan on certain issues. Many call me a radical conservative—they see it as derogatory.

But you and I both understand, it’s not that I am radical, but that America’s current environment forces every young politician to become radical.”

Black Satan nodded thoughtfully; Wolf’s words were quite sharp.

He was saying that Nanxi has objections to their cooperation, pointing Wolf towards the internal struggle for power with Chief Cheng.

But Wolf’s response pointed to the broader environment being the issue.

He might not be pretending to be ignorant; not making a statement is a position in itself.

“Yes, everyone is becoming more and more radical.”

Wolf continued to express his views.

“So, from the perspective of both parties, the contradiction between the California Clique, Madam Speaker, and myself is inevitable, but I believe that such contradictions can often be resolved through honest communication.

Perhaps this resolution will not be very effective, but dialogue always helps with mutual trust.

If possible, could you arrange a meeting with Madam Speaker for me, a secret meeting?”

Discussing it over the phone is impossible; everyone involved is decent and knows how disgusting the American surveillance system is, no one wants to be the unlucky one because of some recording.

Black Satan didn’t promise immediately; Wolf’s performance was far from what he expected.

He expected Wolf to stand with him and also belong to the Establishment Faction of a different camp, but Wolf’s reply pointed towards continuing as friends with common interests within a cooperative framework.

In the short term, these conditions are actually acceptable from Black Satan’s perspective, roughly equating to a small win.

He would favor Wolf, giving him a human touch, while also saving face for Nanxi, benefiting from both sides.

However, Black Satan’s power was dwindling, and if he didn’t take advantage of this request from Nanxi to gain some benefits, the speed of future decline would be faster.

Nanxi seeking his help meant she gave him some kind of special ‘agency’, ‘judgement power’, and this power would be instantly obsolete if unused.

“You know where the problem is, Wolf, you know it.”

Black Satan hinted.

Where’s the problem?

Chief Cheng bit too hard, and Nanxi doesn’t want to compromise!

“I am first a Republican, and secondly a Californian.”

Wolf responded with a smile.

The smile of the Big Committee Chairman was so meaningful it sent a chill down Black Satan’s spine.

Am I giving you a compliment and giving you a chance, and you don’t give me any face?

At that moment, Wolf unexpectedly stood by Chief Cheng’s side, which was completely different from his usual performance.

This biggest faction within Chief Cheng’s camp always likes to cause disturbances, looking for highlights when given the chance.

Now, at the moment when the California Clique is trying to win favor through Black Satan, Wolf unexpectedly chose to unite by Chief Cheng’s side.

This is quite intriguing.

The reason is actually very simple, the ‘reward’ that Wolf received from Chief Cheng was too much.

The countless examples of quick severance and major mishaps in human history, from Su Suizong to Ming Sizong.

As a leader-level figure, Wolf must be cautious with every major decision he makes.

In any case, even if Chief Cheng loses badly, Wolf still qualifies to continue playing at the table.

For now, let’s just sit on the sidelines and watch Chief Cheng’s operations; America won both World War I and II this way, and this belongs to the essence of America’s struggle philosophy.
