American TV series Detective's Daily Life

Chapter 172 Peggy: Stop pretending, Amazing Amy, you can’t fool Chuck!

"It's you?"

Andy Walton looked at Chuck in disbelief.

"not me."

Chuck shook his head: "He is a righteous retail investor."

"...Retail investors?"

Andy Wharton looked ugly. He felt that his IQ had been insulted. In the financial market, the big fish always eat the small fish, the small fish eat the shrimps, and the shrimps eat the leeks, but he is the financial predator who eats the big fish.

Now Chuck says that he was defeated by retail investors known as leeks?

This is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!

The bailiff had arrived by now.

Andy Wharton, who had previously claimed that "if you have money, you can do whatever you want," completely enjoyed the trouble of having no money. He could only reluctantly call to inquire about the damage to his property while being taken back to prison. .

"Dr. Wolfe, here's my business card."

The criminal barrister hired by Andy Wharton smiled and handed over his business card: "If you need anything, please call me."

Chuck nodded and took it.

"Retail investors?"

JJ only felt that it was very satisfying, but there was something strange in the smile that couldn't be suppressed.

Even if you don’t understand finance and the stock market, you still know how retail investors can defeat financial giants!

“Everyone underestimates the power of retail investors.”

Chuck said calmly: "If you spread out, retail investors will only be harvested, but once a joint force is formed due to a certain opportunity, let alone a mere billionaire, even the entire Wall Street will be shaken. After all, the promise The real main force behind the entire financial market is countless retail investors."

"It's really not you?"

Chandler was surprised and regretful: "Thankfully, I even said your classic saying I'm rich!"

"not me."

Chuck shook his head: "But isn't this sentence inappropriate?"

"Rise to the occasion!"

Chandler paused and smiled: "It's so fitting. I really hope that one day I can say this to others."

"It's so easy."

Chuck said: "For you, I can say this, and for people who are far inferior to you, you can say this now, it's no big deal."

While everyone was chatting and laughing, they dropped the topic.

After all, in the eyes of everyone, although Chuck has financial freedom and is not short of money, he is only at the level of a multi-millionaire, and it is impossible to short-sell and kill a billionaire at the slightest disagreement.

Chuck said goodbye to everyone and drove back to New Jersey.

He did not lie. On the surface, he did not have this ability. As for the more wealth secretly, Anna helped him use thousands of retail accounts to hold it on his behalf.

Otherwise, where would the large amount of money come from for the construction of the shelter, the expansion of the underground secret room, and the equipment of various high-tech equipment that need to be kept secret and isolated from him?

These are all provided secretly by these private accounts.

Anna's hacking skills provide the most valuable real-time information, coupled with Chuck's deduction of financial mathematical models and accounting abilities, she has easily accumulated a large amount of wealth in private over the years. This is also the reason why Chuck found out that Andy... After Wharton was involved in the case, he had the confidence to short him immediately.

It’s just that he was not unrealistically prepared to swallow up Andy Wharton’s assets at the beginning. After all, financial war is not a child’s play. He just wanted to take advantage of this big negative news to be exposed and cut a piece of flesh for this immoral person. It's just a pain for billionaires.

Then it was discovered that more retail investors entered the market, forming a chain reaction. Other financial giants also took advantage of the situation and turned their petty eating of meat and soup into extremely cruel devouring.

Only then did Andy Wharton in the court be shocked to find that he was not the rich man who could do whatever he wanted, but the clown was actually himself.

As Chuck, who knew the development of the process, told Chandler and others that it was not him but the retail investors. To a certain extent, it was indeed the truth.

Thinking of this, he raised his decorative black-rimmed glasses while driving and whispered to himself: "Are there any problems with those retail investors?"

The watch on Chuck's wrist vibrated twice unnoticeably.

Once yes, twice no!

Chuck remained silent, stopped talking, drove to the door of Hofstadter's house, and rang the doorbell.

"Who is it? Sheldon, go and open the door."

"I can."

"You can go ahead."

"You need a treat."

"...Can you please go over and open the door?"

The sound of little Leonard gnashing his teeth could be heard in the room.

"ok."

When Little Sheldon heard the words of invitation, he stood up and came over to open the door. The joy on his face froze when he saw the shadow covering the sky: "You..."

"Who?"

Little Leonard, who was busy inside, saw that Little Sheldon didn't move after opening the door before he finished speaking, so he couldn't help but raised his voice and asked.

There was still no sound outside.

Little Leonard sensed something was wrong, and when he looked out, the corners of his mouth suddenly grinned to the back of his ears, and he shouted to Chuck, who was silently looking at the frozen Little Sheldon: "Hi, Chuck! "

"Hi, Leonard."

Chuck looked up and nodded to little Leonard who was trotting over.

"Did you come here to see me?"

Little Leonard pulled away Little Sheldon who was standing in front of him and said expectantly.

"Yes and no."

Chuck said: "At Monica's request, I came here to invite Sheldon to Peggy's surprise birthday party."

"No!"

Little Sheldon was staggered by Little Leonard, and he barely regained his vitality from the frozen state after being shrouded in shadow. When he heard that the big devil Chuck was going to take him to see the little devil Peggy, he subconsciously shook his head: "I dont go!"

"Why?"

Chuck lowered his head and looked at Little Sheldon.

"Because, because..."

Under Chuck's calm gaze, little Sheldon, who had always been unreasonable and always said nonsense, couldn't even say a simple "I don't want to go".

"Yeah, why?"

Little Leonard, who was envious, imitated Chuck's tone and looked at little Sheldon with his head slightly raised.

"Dr. Wolfe."

Beverly came down from upstairs and rescued little Sheldon: "Why are you here?"

Chuck told the story.

"Hey, why didn't you notify me in advance?"

Beverly looked at Chuck in surprise.

Little Sheldon, who had already moved behind Beverly, heard this and finally plucked up the courage to say to Chuck: "Because you didn't notify me in advance, I won't go."

"For others, advance notice is required, but not for you."

Chuck shook his head.

"Why?"

With Beverly as a protective umbrella, little Sheldon raised his chin again as he spoke.

"Because this is a birthday surprise party, and we want a surprise."

Chuck said bluntly: "If I inform you in advance, the surprise of this birthday surprise party will completely lose its meaning, right?"

"You mean I can't keep a secret?"

Little Sheldon was unconvinced.

"Can you keep a secret?"

Chuck asked rhetorically.

"...You really think I can't keep a secret?"

Little Sheldon hesitated for a moment, but he repeated firmly.

"You still want to play the repeater game?"

Chuck looked into young Sheldon's eyes.

"No!"

Little Sheldon shouted in horror.

The last game of pete and repeat was simply a nightmare for him. Even though Chuck finally stopped because of his crying, but with his developed brain, he repeated the game countless times in his dream that night, which completely established the big dream in his heart. The name of Demon King Chuck.

"Chuck's right, you really can't keep secrets."

Little Leonard was the first to poke Little Sheldon's tires.

"You're really not good at keeping secrets."

Beverly said straightforwardly: "But this is not a shortcoming. For us, we can tell others everything."

Little Sheldon nodded repeatedly with tears in his eyes.

"So, do you have any more questions?"

Chuck raised his hand and looked at his watch and asked, "If not, please pack your clothes. We should go."

Little Sheldon looked at Beverly eagerly, expecting Beverly to speak to him.

"Peggy is an outstanding talent, and she deserves to be celebrated on her birthday."

Beverly did not give him the help she imagined. She raised her glasses and said flatly: "This is an inevitable custom."

"All right."

Seeing that his biggest protector had said so, little Sheldon really didn't dare to face Chuck and say, "I didn't even celebrate my birthday on February 26 last month, so why should I celebrate Peggy's birthday?" , I could only reluctantly go to the bathroom first, and then go upstairs to change clothes.

"Can I tag along?"

Little Leonard said anxiously.

"certainly!"

Chuck nodded.

"Yeah!"

Little Leonard jumped up and ran upstairs: "I'm going to change clothes!"

"I see that you have always looked at Leonard differently."

Beverly frowned: "Why?"

"An experiment."

Chuck didn't want to comment on Beverly's parenting style, nor did he want to get entangled in this topic. He ended the topic lightly and in the most concise words.

"uh-huh."

After Beverly was surprised, she nodded in relief and smiled: "Looking forward to your scientific experiment paper!"

She appreciates doing scientific experiments the most. Even if the subject of other people's experiments is her son, she doesn't care, because in her eyes, her son Leonard can participate in the experiments of scientists of their level, and he is his son Leonard. The greatest contribution and value to science.

Chuck nodded.

After a while, little Leonard, who didn't want Chuck to wait any longer, dragged little Sheldon, who actually didn't want to go, downstairs.

"What about the gift?"

After Little Sheldon regained control of his bladder, he immediately felt that his psychological shadow had dissipated a lot, and he dared to ask his own question: "You should have informed me in advance. You must know that choosing a suitable gift is the most troublesome. It must be It represents your own feelings and is completely equivalent to the gift given to you by others..."

"Did Peggy give you a birthday present?"

Chuck interrupted.

"……No."

Little Sheldon paused and said angrily: "She just called me and said, I'm so jealous that you are 12 years old and I am still 11 years old."

"Ha ha."

Little Leonard couldn't hold back his laughter any longer.

The youngest super genius has always been the title that Little Sheldon cared about most. In this regard, even Chuck couldn't ridicule Little Sheldon because he was not of the same age.

But Peggy, who is half a month younger than little Sheldon, can do it!

"That's fine."

Chuck said seriously: "When you get to the scene, tell her, I'm so envious that you just turned 12, and I'm already 12."

"..."

Little Sheldon was feeling depressed and said dissatisfiedly to Little Leonard who was laughing non-stop: "What is he going to do?"

"It was Monica's idea to invite you."

Chuck said straightforwardly: "Actually, we all know that whether you go or not has no impact on Peggy. It's just that Monica thinks Peggy needs you who are of the same age and similar age to be there, so I'm here to invite you. , and Leonard is the one I really want to invite."

Little Leonard's eyes began to shine.

Beverly watched the whole process, and seeing her always dull son like this, she no longer had any doubts about Chuck's experiment, and she smiled and nodded at Chuck.

Chuck drove little Sheldon and little Leonard to New York.

Monica's apartment.

The arrangements were already made. After Chuck came over, he handed over Little Leonard and Little Sheldon to Rachel and Phoebe.

Relying on her tall figure, Phoebe stood on the balcony and peered down to see what was going on. After Monica led Peggy downstairs, she immediately reminded everyone to hide.

"I'm coming!"

"Where's Chandler?"

"He has something to do and will come back later."

"Don't make any sound, we're almost there."

When the door was opened, everyone jumped out together and shouted in unison to Peggy, who had been moved to the C position by Monica: "Surprise!"

"Wow!"

Peggy's face was filled with surprise: "Mona, did you throw a surprise birthday party for me?"

"Like it?"

Monica saw the surprise on Peggy's face and smiled with a sense of accomplishment.

"Of course I do."

Peggy nodded repeatedly, moved her eyes to little Sheldon, and said with a playful smile: "As I said when I first met Sheldon, I like surprises."

"..."

Little Sheldon was feeling depressed.

"Chuck, do you have a surprise for me?"

Peggy looked at Chuck expectantly.

"The oil painting you were talking about."

Chuck took out the gift he had prepared for Peggy.

Peggy took it and couldn't wait to unfold it. The brightest smile suddenly bloomed on her face. Everyone gathered around to take a look, and saw the exquisite and beautiful Peggy in the painting. She looked at the glass window in front of her with slightly lowered eyebrows, and the left corner of her mouth was slightly raised. Starting from the beginning, a miniature version of the earth is vaguely projected on the glass. However, unlike the blue water polo, the other areas projected by the glass are like sunlight in the sky and jumping flames, giving the blue color of this water polo. The dyeing is not so clear.

"I love this surprise so much!"

Peggy played with the oil painting happily and wouldn't let anyone else touch it.

"Sorry, are we late?"

Just when Monica was about to ask what the painting meant, the door opened and Chandler poked his head in.

"us?"

Monica is sensitive to numbers.

"Hi."

Chandler stepped aside grandly, revealing the magical Amy behind him. She waved slightly and said shyly: "I heard from Chandler that you are celebrating a child's birthday today, so I took the liberty of coming over. , because I know Dr. Wolf doesn’t like to be disturbed, so I spent a little more time avoiding reporters. I’m really sorry, this is the gift I prepared.”

As he spoke, he handed a carefully wrapped gift to Peggy.

"Don't bother, don't bother."

When Ross saw the real magical Amy arriving, his eyes widened and he murmured.

"Come in first."

Monica, as the hostess, also expressed her welcome.

"Thanks."

Peggy accepted the gift without changing her smile.

"open to take a look!"

Rachel and the others were very interested in the gifts from Amazing Amy.

Peggy opened the package casually, and inside was a beautiful box. After opening the box, the gift inside was revealed.

"Listen to Chandler, Peggy, you are a mathematical genius just like Dr. Wolfe."

Amazing Amy smiled: "Here is a manuscript of Ramanujan."

“Ramanujan’s manuscript?!”

Before Peggy did anything, little Sheldon was the first to scream jealously.

"Who is Ramanujan?"

Ross and the others were immediately confused.

"He is a genius mathematician from India who has never received formal education but has made outstanding achievements in the field of mathematics."

Little Leonard helped popularize science: "Ordinary people study mathematics, but Ramanujan, who had no formal education, directly discovered and created mathematics. He was hired by Cambridge University as the first Indian academician in history. Guess what he did? What’s the starting point?”

"What is it?"

Phoebe was particularly interested in the lives of geniuses who were born into ordinary people.

"An accountant too!"

Little Leonard looked around at everyone, raised his chin, and looked at Chuck with shining eyes: "Same as Chuck!"

"Wow, that's great!"

Phoebe and Rachel marveled.

Then everyone's attention was quickly attracted to Amazing Amy, because everyone had too much curiosity and gossip about the recent hot news protagonist.

Amazing Amy answered every question gracefully and gracefully, making everyone feel happy. Her words were filled with gratitude to Chuck, which really made Ross jealous.

Peggy was still smiling, and when Amazing Amy finally failed, she walked to her side and looked at her. After Amazing Amy looked over, she sneered: "Stop pretending, you can't fool Chuck!"
