Just when everyone in the Eddy family thought that this matter would soon be over as long as Raymond Eddy stayed out of the spotlight.
The following news completely pushed Raymond Eddy to the forefront of public opinion.
Raymond Eddie, who lives in his eldest brother's house, is well aware that he is now the focus of major newspapers in Brazil, and today's news must be related to him.
After discussing it with his eldest brother last night, he felt even more uncertain, worried that this accident was not just an accident.
I hope this is really an accident.
The conflicting feelings made it impossible for him to sleep peacefully, so he waited for the latest issue of the newspaper early in the morning.
I hope to see all the news about me disappear.
When he took today's newspaper from the newsboy with a strange look in his eyes, he had a bad feeling.
But he also knew that trying to escape would not solve the problem, and he could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart.
...
...
He closed his eyes and prayed for a long time, calming his breathing completely before slowly opening the newspaper.
But the front-page headline of the newspaper made him stand still as if he was struck by lightning.
There was a sensational title written in bold black font.
"Is it the decline of morality or the distortion of human nature?"
In slightly smaller font below it was written: "The story that Raymond Eddy, Director of the Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters, had to tell about his father's lover."
Below was a large picture made up of several small pictures. With just a glance, Raymond Eddie knew that the people in the photo were him and Mizuno Korei.
Among them, there were scenes of two people kissing at the door, two people showing their faces at the same time, and a projection outside the window captured the two people kissing and taking off their clothes. The most exciting thing was the clear projection of the two people's private parts on the curtain.
Raymond Eddie could tell from the photo that this was the scene of himself visiting Mizuno Korei's house the night before.
His first thought was that it turned out that the reporters had been targeting him the night before and he was completely unaware.
Now I'm in big trouble.
Many people know Mizuno Korei's identity. Even if they don't know, they can guess it without reading the contents of the newspaper, which will definitely give a detailed description.
The exposure of this incident will make him unable to hold his head up in front of his family and colleagues.
Now he himself can realize that his chances of returning to the Police Headquarters are slim.
No matter how powerful his connections were in the Brazilian police system, no one dared to risk the world's disapproval and allow him to return to work at the General Police Directorate.
In this era when news media was not as developed as it is today, Raymond Eddie had no idea what kind of sensation such a report would cause.
But his mind was blank at this moment and he almost completely lost the ability to think independently.
He was awakened from his trance by his mother's voice behind him. He didn't dare let others see the newspaper, so he rushed back to his room with it.
Because of his father's status, Raymond Eddy almost always lived in the flattery of people around him.
As a result, he developed an arrogant, conceited and self-willed character.
In his view, yesterday's news report was just a minor issue that was not a big deal. After the storm passed, he would still do what he had to do.
Don't worry too much about it.
But today's news made him completely panic, as this matter was an absolute secret.
He didn't tell anyone, and no one in his family knew about it, because he knew very well that if his family knew he had done such a thing, they would become alienated from him.
He didn't even know what his eldest brother would think of him. If he provoked his eldest brother and made him give up on him, he would be completely finished.
But escaping will not solve the problem after all.
Now everyone in the family knows that something big has happened to him, and everyone is very concerned about him.
Seeing him so distraught, I became even more worried.
So, his eldest brother Briso Eddie came over quickly.
"Raymond, open the door? What happened?"
When Raymond Eddie heard his eldest brother knocking at the door, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
I wish I could find a tunnel to hide in.
But obviously this won't solve the problem.
He knew very well that this matter could no longer be concealed.
Arrogant people are often very proud, and Raymond Eddy happens to be one of them.
He didn't want his family to see his worst side, so his first reaction was not to confess to his eldest brother and family.
Instead, escape from this home to avoid being asked this embarrassing question by family members.
What's even more embarrassing is that he doesn't know how to face his mother.
Everyone knew that their father had such a lover, but they all hid it from their mother.
Now his father has passed away, but the news was leaked by the media.
What was even more embarrassing was that his youngest son took in his father's widow.
The exposure of this matter will bring shame to the entire Eddie family.
It may also have a certain impact on his elder brother's future.
By then, the entire Eddie family will be finished.
And the source of all this is because of this report!
When Raymond Eddie thought of this, he became furious and his eyes turned red.
Looking at the newspaper that had been crumpled into a ball in his hand, a crazy plan popped up in his mind.
Do it when you think of it.
He turned around and said to his elder brother outside the door in a calm tone:
"It's okay, big brother, I'll come out after I change my clothes."
After saying that, he started to change clothes.
For some reason, he did not change into casual clothes, but put on a neat police uniform and carefully adjusted his clothes in front of the mirror.
He then flattened the newspaper that he had crumpled into a ball, folded it carefully, and finally put it into his trouser pocket after packing it into a small package.
He rubbed his face vigorously with both hands, making his face, which looked a little haggard after not sleeping all night, look a little more energetic.
Standing at the door, I took a few deep breaths to calm myself down.
He opened the door calmly and saw his mother and eldest brother's family standing outside, looking at him with concern.
Raymond Eddy smiled at everyone and said:
"What are you all doing around me?
I'm fine, isn't it just smuggling arms?
What else can the police do to me? Don't forget, we have our own people in the entire Brazilian police department.
You guys go have breakfast first, I'm going to look for Uncle Thomas.
I have thought of a solution and I will discuss it with him."
As the eldest brother, Briso Eddie noticed his abnormality at a glance, but after looking at his mother and wife beside him, he knew that some things were not suitable to be said directly.
In addition, he did not think that the participation of members of his Eddie family in an arms smuggling operation would bring much trouble to the family.
So he patted Raymond Eddie on the shoulder and said:
“It’s good that you’re alright!
I was also saying, you said yesterday that you were going to take a long vacation, so why are you wearing a police uniform again today!
Have you come up with any solution?"
As he spoke, he followed Raymond Eddie downstairs.
But he who was following behind him didn't notice that the other person's face looked a little ugly, and the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously.
Briso Eddie, who had just walked down the stairs, suddenly remembered something and asked:
"Oh! By the way, didn't you go to that newspaper?
What did the newspaper say today?
Take it out and let me see it!"
Raymond Eddy knew he couldn't delay any longer, and said with a roll of his eyes:
"I think I lost it when I was changing my clothes just now.
You go forward and get it later!
I'm in a hurry, so I'll go out first."
After saying that, he pushed the door open and walked out without looking back. Briso Eddie, who was walking behind him, always felt that his brother was a little special today.
It made him feel a little strange.
I didn't notice anything unusual for a moment, but I was a little curious. Did today's news say some good news that made Raymond Eddie suddenly find a solution to the problem?
He has a different personality from his brother, he is not a reckless person, he likes to plan before doing anything.
Whatever happens, analyze it carefully first.
Based on his understanding of Raymond Eddie, he was a little panicked yesterday, but today he suddenly seemed to have regained his confidence. There must be some turn for the better.
I saw Raymond Eddie go out and get into the car, then drive away without looking back.
He didn't even look at his mother and himself who were waiting at the door to say goodbye to him.
But he was stunned. This shouldn't be the case, even though his younger brother was so arrogant.
However, he is still very caring towards his mother and his elder brother.
Therefore, every time I leave home, I will be very proactive and say goodbye to my mother and myself, but why is I so rude today?
He soon realized that something was wrong and his brother was acting a little abnormal today.
Without time to think further, he turned around and ran up to the second floor and pushed open the door of Raymond Eddie's room.
Where can I find the newspaper Raymond Eddy was talking about?
A bad premonition arose in his heart. It seemed that there must be something wrong with today's newspaper. Although he was not sure what his brother was trying to do.
However, all doubts will be answered as soon as you read today's newspaper.
Thinking of this, he quickly ran down the stairs, picked up his coat, and said to his mother, wife and children:
"You guys have breakfast first, don't wait for me.
I have things to do.”
By the time his mother, wife and children turned around, he had already rushed out the door.
He didn't drive because there was a newsstand not far from his home and it was less than a hundred meters away to buy a newspaper.
It doesn't even take a minute to run over there.
When he came to the newsstand, he saw the newspaper that was placed in the most conspicuous position on the newsstand.
There were several people holding newspapers and talking in front of the newsstand.
But he had no intention of caring about what everyone was discussing.
All attention has been attracted by the sensational front-page headline and the content of the photo.
His eyes widened with a look of disbelief.
He pulled out the newspaper and started to read it. The more he read, the uglier his expression became.
Seeing that he hadn't paid yet, the newsstand owner had already taken out the newspaper and started to check it. He said unhappily:
"Hey sir, I know today's news is very explosive!
But you have to pay to read the newspaper!
You have to pay first, then read the newspaper, understand?"
But Briso Eddy ignored, or didn't even notice, what his boss was saying.
He knew the woman mentioned in the newspaper, and from the photos he could see that his brother was indeed having an affair with his father's lover.
After all, pictures represent truth. The content may be fabricated, but the photos cannot be faked.
This was an era before photo-editing, when photos had not yet become fraudulent.
Moreover, the content described in the article was well-founded. As a family member, he only took a glance at it and confirmed that the content reported in the newspaper was true.
It was precisely because he knew the content was true that he found it even more difficult to accept.
He could never imagine that his own brother could do such a kind thing.
At this moment he still didn't understand why his brother behaved like that early this morning.
After reading the entire report, Briso Eddie felt completely disappointed.
There isn't much text in it.
It mainly introduced the identities and backgrounds of the two people in the picture, with emphasis on the fact that the male protagonist was the Director of Public Security of the General Police Department who was reported yesterday for smuggling arms.
He also gave a detailed description of how the reporter discovered the special relationship between the two.
It was reported that the discovery of this news was also an accident, after the reporter learned that Raymond Eddy was involved in an arms smuggling case.
I wanted to interview him, but when I arrived at the police headquarters, I found that he had just left work early.
The reporter followed the other party all the way to a small villa in the suburbs of Brazil and took these photos.
Then, after investigation by the reporter, it was discovered that the woman was actually a Japanese woman named Mizuno Korei. More importantly, the other party's identity was that she should be the lover of Raymond Eddie's father.
She is his stepmother, but the two of them are together and doing such shameful things, which simply shattered the reporter's three views.
Reporters raised serious questions about Raymond Eddy's character, and also questioned the character of his father, Credo Eddy.
This in turn calls into question the character of the entire Eddie family.
And raised the question of why a Japanese woman would do this when the Brazilian government had issued an order to expel all Japanese people from the country.
You can also live openly in the capital of Brazil.
Is it because the Eddie family can do whatever they want in the police system, regardless of the law?
At the same time, I feel disgusted by the fact that the Director of the Public Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters is a scumbag who breaks the law while enforcing it and has such a low character.
This further raises questions about the quality of police officers throughout the Brazilian police system.
Briso Eddie's face turned red and blue as he read the entire report.
I don’t know how I should deal with this matter.
It can be predicted that as this report spreads, their entire Eddie family will become a stinking pile of shit.
His younger brother, Raymond Eddie, has completely lost the opportunity to enter the police system again.
Because he has brought shame to the entire Brazilian police system.
There is no chance to work in other government departments in Brazil.
No matter where you go, people will point fingers at you.
What’s more frightening is that he, as the Secretary-General of the Labour Party, may be greatly affected.
And his mother will be hit even harder.
