America: I'm really not crazy

Chapter 63 The Reunion of Levi and Thomas

Thomas saw Levi as soon as he got off the plane.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Wei did not impulsively do anything dangerous.

So he opened his arms, wanting to give Li Wei a big hug.

To his surprise, Li Wei punched him in the stomach and then choked him the moment he bent over.

"What exactly are you trying to do, you bastard? Huh?"

Although Levi didn't actually use any force, and Thomas didn't feel any pain or suffocation, being strangled and tucked under his armpits while his buttocks were sticking out was really unsightly.

"Li Wei, let go, this is... a bit embarrassing."

Li Wei, however, nonchalantly raised his hand, clenched his fist, and twisted Thomas's head, turning his neatly combed hair into a bird's nest.

"What? Are you planning to become a TV star?"

Thomas actually admitted it while fixing his hair.

"Aren't campaign officials just celebrities trying to grab attention on TV? Except, regular TV stars want money, while campaign officials want votes."

Li Wei thought about it and realized that what the character Thomas said was absolutely right.

So he released Thomas and repeated the initial question.

"So, why did you give up your position as IRS chief to run for mayor of Miami?"

"Have you been losing more hair lately?"

Thomas nodded very seriously.

"Yes, that's one of the main reasons I agreed."

Thomas continued speaking while fixing his hair.

"Another important reason is that my cousin discovered that the Revival Society seems to be active in Miami, and Miami is an important voter base that he built up when he was mayor. With the new election approaching, he needs me to help him consolidate this base."

Levi gave Thomas a strange look.

"If that's what you're saying, then I'm really curious. Since Miami is so important, how could your uncle, the president, allow someone like Harvey Rogers to become the mayor of Miami?"

Thomas was helpless.

"Many times, we can't choose the best option; we can only choose one that everyone can accept... That's politics."

Li Wei raised an eyebrow.

"So, you've now become the candidate that everyone can accept?"

Thomas shook his head.

"It's not that I've been accepted by all parties, but rather that I'm here because I have to find a way to get their support in making me the most suitable candidate..."

Thomas paused for a moment.

"At least, so that most people don't object."

Li Wei couldn't help but take a step back and look Thomas up and down.

"Thomas, you seem different."

Thomas suddenly became a little nervous.

"Is my hair loss that noticeable?"

Then, his expression turned serious.

"Li Wei, I don't mind you joking with me, but could you please stop damaging the hair follicles on my head that are struggling to survive every day?"

Li Wei rolled his eyes.

"Is this what I meant?"

However, Li Wei is not the type of person who gets bogged down in "minor details".

He simply turned the page.

"Let's go, let's have a welcome dinner for you."

Thomas shook his head.

"I want to go see Wesker first."

"He's alright, isn't he?"

For Li Wei, being injured but not dying wasn't a big problem.

However, the source of his anger from beginning to end was not this.

What angered him was the fact that Lawrence had hurt innocent people and his friends.

But Thomas also has his own standards of judgment.

"But I want to go see him first, otherwise I'll really worry."

Li Wei glanced at Thomas.

This guy... is really different now.

"Okay, let's go to Jackson Memorial Hospital first."

"But you'll have to wait while I go get a car first."

Upon hearing Li Wei's words, Thomas was immediately alarmed.

He believed that when Li Wei said "get a car," he meant it was definitely not as simple as just calling a taxi.

Fortunately, he had taken precautions.

"No need to trouble yourself. I already called when I got off the plane and had someone send a car to pick me up."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and glanced at the Patek Philippe on his wrist.

"Hmm... we should be arriving around now."

"let's go."

Thomas, who hadn't even brought a suitcase, had already left without giving Li Wei a chance to "act".

Li Wei glanced at Thomas's fleeing figure, said nothing, just blinked, and then followed.

When the two arrived at the door, there was indeed a gold and black Maybach parked there.

Seemingly to prevent Levi from making any mistakes, Thomas quickly took two steps forward, rushed ahead of Levi, and opened the car door for him.

"Get in the car."

Li Wei accepted this treatment with a clear conscience and sat down.

However, after Thomas sat down on the other side, he felt that it would be more polite to stop his prank, considering Thomas's sensible nature.

"Matt Damon's son is dead. I've already dealt with his private army, and they weren't as formidable as I thought."

Thomas's hand, which was closing the car door, seemed glued to the handle, remaining motionless.

He sighed and picked up the car phone five minutes after the Maybach had been driving for a while.

"Hey Mars, I'm sorry to bother you so late. But it's urgent. I need you to compile all the relevant information about Matt Damon as soon as possible, including indirect information."

"Send it to me via email within thirty minutes, is that alright?"

"Thanks."

Thomas hung up the phone, somewhat helpless.

"I thought you finally took my advice and didn't go after Matt Damon... But why did you kill his son? In my understanding, he shouldn't have posed any threat to you."

Li Wei immediately became unconvinced.

"Hey Thomas! Even though we're friends, your words just now constitute serious slander! No! It was blatant defamation!"

The way Li Wei excitedly clenched his fist made Thomas realize that he must have misunderstood the whole story.

However, before he could apologize, Li Wei's words left him completely speechless.

"First of all, I didn't kill him. Secondly, that idiot was incredibly dangerous! You know what? He was like a lunatic, standing in the middle of the road, pulling down his pants, and yelling 'I'm invincible!' and then a passing truck sent him flying."

"I almost died laughing! You know what?"

"I won't allow you to underestimate that idiot! He's a real threat!"

Thomas pursed his lips, struggling to keep himself from laughing.

It's not that he lacks compassion or empathy; it's just that this matter is truly... neither worthy of sympathy nor utterly absurd and laughable.

But in the end, manners and habits prevailed.

"Okay, I understand. That makes the follow-up problems much easier to solve."

Thomas, suppressing a laugh, said no more, for fear he would lose control.
