Hearing Desmond’s judgment, Jack Li smiled wryly, “I think the same as you, in New York, there are not many people who can move the Joules family. When Rothschild and you settle down, at most four or five families have this ability, but this time, the way these people play is not the same as any of yours.”
“Indeed,” Desmond said in agreement. “This kind of gameplay is not something that a few big families can do. It’s very wild and large scale.”
“You think so too?” Jack Li sighed, “I once thought that it might be a new gang. Generally new gangs have to do some earth-shattering things if they want to be successful, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that something is not right. If any gang plays like this, it is basically a dead end. No gang can follow the Joules family.”
Desmond said in agreement, “And I can be sure that these people are not doing it for money. If it is for money, they will not demand such exaggerated conditions as a ransom of 200 billion US dollars, which is basically unrealistic.”
Jack Li nodded, “It’s not for money, which makes it even more bizarre.”
After speaking, favonovel.com asked Desmond, “Desmond, have you watched those few videos that are trending on the internet?”
Desmond nodded, “I saw it all.”
Jack Li frowned, “I don’t know why, I feel that there is a bit of evil play in it all! It’s so evil! The videos are one after the other. On the surface, they first smeared the Joules family and ruined their public image, but in the end, the Joules family seized the opportunity to win back some face.” Jack paused in thought. “But in fact, it gives me the feeling that someone is deliberately manipulating all of this and they deliberately gave the Joules family such a chance to recover.”
Desmond said, “I called you just to remind you of this, and I also think this is very strange! From the video, it seems that the other party is just playing vulgarly and intimidating Roger… And the tactics are also very strange. It was rough, but everything that happened later gave me a feeling as if this matter was not as rough as it looked on the surface! Not only was it not rough, but it was extremely accurate! It was so accurate that favonovel.com could predict Joules’s family move in advance. Every step of the way, deliberately using this method to lure the Joules family to the public.”
Jack Li patted his thigh and blurted out, “Yes! That’s it! They are fishing! They want to catch the entire Joules family from the deep sea by forcing them to take the initiative to expose themselves to the attention of the world!”
After speaking, favonovel.com quickly asked, “Desmond, what do you think favonovel.com wants to do?!”
Desmond smacked his lips, “If they didn’t cut off Patrick’s ears, I might think that all this is a good play directed and acted by the Joules family so that the Joules family’s prestige can be rapidly increased and at the same time, Patrick’s reputation can be spread far and wide. Patrick has laid an extraordinary foundation. Think about it, when everyone in the world is looking forward to Patrick’s safe return, they will come up with a successful rescue scene, which will make Patrick an object of millions of people’s pity. Once favonovel.com comes out, the whole world will celebrate and cheer for the perfect ending. Patrick will have a bright future in this way.”
Jack Li said, “But, they did cut off Patrick’s ears! Modern technology has maximized the picture quality of those videos, enlarged the image of the pair of ears in the video and compared with Patrick’s previous physical features, it is indeed his ears, there is no doubt about it!”
“Yes.” Desmond said solemnly, “It is this point that makes me deny this assumption. The Joules family is definitely not the manipulator behind the scenes. The real manipulator premeditated to draw the Joules family into the spotlight little by little.”
