Chapter 218: The Bell and the Wild Bird


Xu Le's gaze was withdrawn from the screen of his phone.

The signature of the e-mail is a string of familiar asterisks, and in the previous paragraph, he had received a similar e-mail, and the owner of the e-mail said: He is not dead, let him not avenge himself.

The meaning of today's email is relatively close, to the effect that nothing happened to him, so he doesn't have to worry.

Thinking of the most important news in the Federation in the past two days, he easily deduced that it was the girl who sent the email, and the email from her a few days ago, not from the uncle.

Xu Le sat silently on the sofa in the apartment, a little puzzled in his heart, since he hadn't cared about it before, why did he care about whether he knew it now.

The special hearing on the Medellín case on Capitol Hill was temporarily suspended because of Zhang Xiaomeng's disappearance, and Xu Le could guess what was hidden behind this matter, but he no longer had the bloody emotions of this year, only exhaustion and numbness.

Zhang Xiaomeng is alive, still alive, this is good, he can't sort out his emotions, and naturally he can't sort out what the relationship between the entanglements of interests in the upper echelons of the federation and himself, a fugitive, good things and bad things seem to be none of his business.

He sat in the middle of the building, looking at the first snow outside the window, and the wind did not move.

The snow fell in the capital zone, gently raising the pear blossom sea of the university in Linhai Prefecture, falling on the street buildings, most of them melted away in an instant, leaving the color of the forest, and occasionally a few remnants of white, very eye-catching.

Next to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the West Arch Hall of the President's Residence, President Sieg, who only had a short term of two months, silently looked at the snow on the lawn outside the window, and did not speak for a long time, as the leader of the Federation in the past ten years, he left a violent and cowardly image to the society, but only he himself knew and was satisfied, he won ten years of stable development for the Federation, and the war wounds caused by the previous war with the Empire were gradually repaired during his presidential term.

Is it just that stability is really the overriding important thing, President Sieg squinted at the snow on the east and west of the grass, thought of the lady who had left earlier, and asked his truest heart.

He had always respected and relied on the political wisdom of that lady, but at a critical moment when the parliament was investigating Medellín, the federal axe made a sharp turn and gave in to the shameless politician in exchange for extinguishing the flames of protest that had ignited throughout the federation and quelling the general strike in the four states as soon as possible "From a rational point of view, the political axe no longer investigates Medellín, which is indeed a good way to quell the civil strife in the federation in the shortest possible time, and if that old ghost does not come forward to appeal in person, those young people in the federation will not calm down."

Mr.

National Security Adviser walked up behind the President and said in a slightly hoarse old voice: "Khufu, Madame Khufu and the people she can influence can bring about a fundamental change in the surname of the Capitol Hill, and it is you who need to make a decision now." ” Although for the first time in the past, President Sieg was dissatisfied with the teacher and friends behind him, but now he realizes that standing at the peak of federal power, the last person he can trust is this old guy.

"I still need to make a decision, Minister Ni has already made his decision," President Sieg said, slapping his palm on the table, a little annoyed.

The national security adviser fell silent.

The Minister Ni mentioned by President Seg is Mr.

Attorney General, who contributed to the Medellín case, because of the disappearance of the key female witness of the military, Mr.

Attorney General has been under all the pressure and has officially resigned three days ago, and all the big people who have been able to enter and leave the presidential residence are naturally very clear that the resignation of the Minister of Justice is just the opening performance of a big move.

Someone needs to be responsible for this matter, and the Minister of Justice is the most suitable person, and the reason why Minister Ni is willing to come out as this scapegoat is, of course, because he must have been assured by some quarters that when the new president takes office, there will be a brighter and brighter future waiting for him.

The national security adviser looked at the president's back with a slight mockery, thinking that in this presidential election, since you chose to stand on the side of that woman, you should be very aware of the risks, there is an old proverb in the federation, called borrowing fur from a tiger to make a coat, in the mind of this political veteran, the lady of the Tai family who looks calm and peaceful is a real fierce tigress.

The reason why he was reluctant to stand on the side of Pabul at the beginning, in addition to the lawsuit many years ago, was more because he had never been able to trust a woman like Mrs.

Tai, and even faintly fearful.

It's just that now Mrs.

Tai and the old man of the Li family have made an agreement to clean up the mess and made suggestions to the president's residence, and the security adviser easily agreed, the federation needs a stable and harmonious society, and Mr.

President and himself need a lot of respect and glory.

They still have two months to go in office, but they still have a long way to live, and the national security adviser is confident that President Sieg will understand this and support the plan.

"Help me get to the Charter Bureau."

President Sieg suddenly said to Brin, the deputy director of the office at the door.

The national security adviser frowned and said softly: "What's the problem" "If I want to pardon Medellín, I must confirm with the Charter Office whether that old ghost was involved in the two terrorist attacks, and whether it is possible that he did the work of the gangsters or security companies in Qinglong Mountain."

The National Security Adviser glanced at President Sieg with a smirk, as if he had heard something very funny.

In a secret connection, the old director of the Charter Office confirmed to the Federal President that no direct evidence had been found that the Medellín parliamentarians were involved in terrorist activities.

When President Sieg heard this report, his whole body was visibly relaxed, and his movements to put down the phone were much more gentle.

There was a long silence in the arch hall of the mansion, and the leader of the Federation stood at the table with a blank face, and after thinking for a long time, he nodded slightly.

The National Security Adviser in the room, as well as Deputy Director Brin, noticed this small gesture of Mr.

President, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief and left the room.

In the current situation, certain concessions are necessary in order to ensure the stability and unity of the Federation.

Outgoing President Hufseeg thought this in his heart, but was unwilling to think about how much of the decision made by the federal government was related to future interests.

Dozens of kilometers from the presidential residence, at the end of that one-way street, the building of the Charter Office was hidden in the snowflakes.

The old Director Tai glanced out the window with worried eyes, yes, until today, the Charter Bureau still has not found direct evidence that can accuse the Medellín parliamentarians, those people and those messages have not returned, and the current Federation and the President do not seem to want to listen to his two words, but are eager to end the chaos in front of them, so that the Federation can return to the happy world of singing and dancing, silver knives and meat.

There have been many similar dramatic scenes in history, betrayal, betrayal, compromise, concession and separation, comrades become enemies in a second, enemies become partners, before the shady scene, the people are appeased, the society is no longer in turmoil, after the shady scene, all families share the interests equally, as it should be.

However, this time the Federation, can it repeat this boring cycle of fate?

After several days of snow, no matter how easy the white finally accumulated, the departure of the capital zone in autumn was in such a hurry, and the arrival of winter caught many people off guard, and pedestrians walking briskly with their hands rubbed together could often be seen on the streets.

Magnolia in the driver's seat easily twisted the steering wheel and avoided a middle-aged man in front of her.

It's rare to drive a black car twice, he has already liked this calm and smooth driving feeling, and sometimes he will guess a thing or two, how deep is the background of Xu Le, the little boss, according to his knowledge, this kind of special car is only afraid that there are not many on the top of the federal political axe.

"The company's safety department conducted an assessment one day in advance, saying that the employer there was suddenly going to leave."

Bai Yulan didn't look at Xu Le in the co-pilot's seat, and introduced: "Since we are asked to participate in the assessment by name, as the technical director, it is better for you to go." ” "Hmm."

Xu Le squinted his eyes at the winter snow tree on the side of the street, and didn't say anything more, his current state was very empty, and the work of the White Water Company was done casually, it seemed that it was just to pass the time.

As one of the three largest security companies in the Federation, Whitewater naturally includes security planning within its business scope, which is what ordinary people call being a bodyguard.

Magnolia mentioned to him a few days ago that the upper echelons of the company received a very important order, and the seventh combat team was named to participate in the consultation, but his mind was too trance-like these days to remember this matter at all.

Magnolia glanced at him with a little worry, in the eyes of this delicate man, Xu Le was his boss, his gold master, and the person he wanted to work for.

He never worried about the danger of working for money, he just cared about the mental state of the gold owner, and it was obvious that after returning from the old moon base, Xu Le, who should have been in good spirits, didn't know what happened, and suddenly became a lot more depressed.

The thermal protection system under the ground had been activated, the snow and ice on the streets had already turned into a trickle into the sewers, and the black cars drove wet all the way in the direction of Charter Square, just past the Ministry of Justice building.

Xu Le suddenly turned his head, squinting at the crowd of supporters at the Ministry of Justice building and the demonstrators who refused to retreat against the bitter cold, realizing that something seemed to be going on there.

"Stop."

He whispered, "I want to go and see." ” To be continued:
