I don't trust the government

Recently, a new type of sweets began to spread within the empire

 No one would normally care about this topic, but these sweets had a strange effect that made everyone who tasted them enter into a heated discussion with others about the true taste of these sweets.

 Every person who tastes it will get a different taste from others

 This made everyone wonder what was in these sweets that made them so unique

 Many suspected that these sweets might contain dangerous and unknown ingredients

 But even with these warnings, there is still a lot of demand for it, and the percentage of sales continues to increase every second more than the previous one.

 Many did not heed these warnings at all

 The consumer instinct was the factor on which Alexander relied heavily in selling his product

 All he had to do was provide the right conditions to attract the consumer

 Does the product taste good?

 The answer is yes

 Does the product bring happiness to the consumer, even if it is momentary happiness?

 Yes

 And that's all

 This is the same strategy that companies adopt in marketing dangerous but desirable products such as cigarettes

 There are hundreds of articles and studies that prove the danger of cigarettes and their relationship to fatal diseases such as cancer

 But do smokers care about these things?

 Of course not. They continue smoking until the last minute, not caring about the seriousness of their actions, and all of this is for the sake of obtaining momentary pleasure and enjoyment.

 Alexander was offering something much better and tastier than cigarettes

 sweets

 At least this product will not cause cancer or heart disease to the consumer

 In addition to all this, Alexander's impressive reputation was added to the reasons that prompted many to try these sweets

 The awards ceremony was broadcast on television. Therefore, The whole world could see how Alexander gave his award to someone else

 Everyone respected his honorable attitude, so they had great confidence that a person who gave away such a treasure would not sell a dangerous product to get some money.

 This is what reassured people and prompted them to buy these sweets without worry

 On the other hand, the authorities were watching what was happening with concern

 These sweets were widespread and disturbing, especially since the ingredient used to give these sweets such a strange effect is still unknown.

However, the authorities did not take any action against Alexander

 But after several days, these sweets became more widespread, to the point that several factories were opened to produce these sweets and they began to be exported to neighboring countries.

 In the end, the decision was made to question Alexander about the secret ingredient to find out if there was an ingredient that might be considered toxic or life-threatening to consumers.

 ----------------------------

 Alexander sat in a windowless room, and the only furniture in it was a small metal table and four chairs

 The attendees in this room were two investigators sent by the government

 His presence was requested for interrogation after the crazy spread of Ford's sweets, which caused an uproar everywhere

 Alexander knew immediately that the moment of confrontation had arrived

 He must use all the means and preparations that he has been preparing throughout the previous period

 "Apprentice Alexander…" The male detective who was wearing a black suit and sunglasses spoke. "I'm Jeff, and this is my colleague Detective Kelly."

 "Nice to meet you..." Alexander greeted them appropriately

 "We don't want to bother you with this investigation..." Jeff's tone was emotionless. "So can you make it easier for us and tell us this secret ingredient."

 Alexander took a deep breath and exhaled. "The secret ingredient is..."

 The investigators' attention focused on Alexander, they were curious about this secret ingredient

 Alexander used his hands to make a heart near his chest and winked. "The secret ingredient is love..."

 "..." The detectives' expressions froze

 "Could you be more serious…" Detective Jeff rubbed his temple

 "Hahaha, oh I'm sorry, I was just kidding..." Alexander laughed with amusement

 "So...can you tell us the secret ingredient?" Jeff repeated his question

 "No..." Alexander refused immediately

 "The situation does not allow you to refuse, Mr. Alexander."

 "What would happen if my secret ingredient leaked?"

 "Don't worry, we are professionals in this matter. Don't you have confidence in the government?"

 "Yes, I don't trust the government." Alexander did not hesitate for a moment in his answer

 "...." Don't you think you're being too direct?

 The corners of Detective Jeff's mouth twitched, but he did not give up. He tried to investigate something else related to this topic. " principal Frederic told us that you learned this recipe from a man named..."

 Detective Jeff began flipping through the papers in front of him. "His name is Winston Hitler...that's a bit of a strange name."

 "..." Alexander remained silent

"Can you tell us his features and characteristics? We want his height or weight and whether he has a distinctive mark on his face or any part of his body." Detective Jeff explained further

 "...." A distinctive mark on his body?

 Why would I know such a thing?

 Alexander decided not to dwell on this matter any further

 "Okay..." Alexander put his hand on his chin and pretended to be deep in thought. "I think I remember some of his facial features."

 "Excellent!." Detective Kelly shouted excitedly as she took out a sheet of paper intended for drawing and a pencil. "I was dreaming of becoming a painter. I think I can help you draw the face of the person we are looking for."

 "That's great, Detective Kelly." Jeff praised her and then turned to Alexander. "Please tell us everything you know."

 "Well...he's a middle-aged man, a bit overweight..."

 scribble! scribble!

 Kelly's hand holding the pen began to move quickly as soon as the words left Alexander's mouth

 "Good." Kelly smiled contentedly

 "...." But I didn't say anything yet

 Alexander continued, "He has an almost bald head and a round face. The special thing about him is that he has a short mustache that may seem strange to everyone who sees him..."

 Kelly continued scribbling while listening to Alexander's words

 "I'm done..." Kelly said as she placed her drawing on the table

 "..." Alexander and Detective Jeff stared at this drawing in amazement

Alexander looked at her strangely. "Detective Kelly, I didn't mention this, but the person I was talking about is a human, not a monster."

 Kelly rubbed her head. "Is my drawing that bad?"

 "..." No, it's worse than you can imagine

 Although they shared the same opinion, they did not speak those words in front of Kelly so as not to hurt her feelings

 "Didn't you say that you dreamed of becoming a painter?" Jeff asked her confused

 Kelly shrugged nonchalantly. "I said that I dreamed of becoming a painter, but I did not say that I was good at drawing."

 "..." Intelligence men are definitely eccentric

 Alexander stared at Kelly blankly
