  The corporation was too close to the city council for its own good. The relationship was cozy with the suspicion of corrupt dealings too likely. And it was becoming costly; the Corporation's public approval was declining. Mike Danner, an accountant in the office, could see this and he decided that he had to try and fix it. As he walked down the corridors of the cosmopolitan building where he worked, he knew that an argument with the president would be counterproductive. He had to find a way of counseling the president that he needed distance from his counterpart in the local government.They were an odd couple, he and the mayor; corrective measures were needed.

  But Mike Danner never thought that there would be any true corresponding crime. Counterfeit money was being produced in the back offices of the corporate parking lot and shipped to the city council in corrugate boxes where the mayor would countersign their authenticity. The corpus of the council knew this. He was walking into the fire!

  The next day, when his body was found with his cortex pealed from his head, the press never thought to correlate his murder with a controversy surrounding the corporation and the city council. Instead they created a cosmetic motive for a local drug dealer to be put in prison on false charges. The Chief of Police was involved in the counterfeit deal as well. And he wasn't about to sacrifice the college money for his three kids for some curious corporate office boy.

  读故事单词雅思词汇-适得其反的尝试

  为了自身的利益公司离市政委员会太近了。关系太密切，很可能让人怀疑有腐败交易。这给公司带来了很大的损失：公司的公众支持率在不断下降。办公室会计迈克?丹纳看出了这一点，认为他得努力解决这个问题。当他走过他工作的国际性建筑的走廊的时候，他明白与总裁争论会产生相反的结果。他得想办法劝告总裁：他有必要与当地政府中地位和他相对应的人保持距离。总裁和市长是奇怪的一对，需要采取矫正措施。

  但迈克·丹纳从没想过真的会有相关的犯罪。公司停车场后面的办公室正在印伪钞，并用起皱的纸箱运往市政委员会，在那里市长要给它们辨明真伪。市政委员会所有人都知道这件事，他是在玩火!

  第二天，当丹纳头皮被剥掉的尸体被人发现的时候，新闻界根本就没想到把他的被杀和围绕公司与市政委员会的争议联系到一起，他们反倒编造了一个表面动机，以莫须有的罪名把当地的一个毒品贩子关进了监狱。警察局长也卷入了伪钞案中，他可不会为了某个好奇的公司勤杂员牺牲三个孩子上大学的学费。
