Chapter 910 A sudden rain in the dark night
Inside the Municipal Assembly Building, Speaker Quan sat in his office, leaning on a cane, watching the heavy rain fall through the glass curtain wall. Under the dim sky, the tall buildings shimmered in a hazy, flickering glow of neon lights.
At this moment, he moved somewhat unnaturally and coughed twice. The assistant beside him immediately came up, touched the teacup first, put two pills in the tea, and carefully handed it to him.
Speaker Quan took the teacup and took a sip. He felt a little better and his mind became more active. He asked, "Is there any news from over there yet?"
"Speaker, not yet." The assistant whispered.
Speaker Quan looked ahead. He had been communicated with in advance before the operation and was told that it would be difficult to operate and search for people in the intersection area, and it was estimated that it might take one to two months.
And if the goal is far enough or difficult enough, it may take even longer. Now, if you calculate it, only half of the time has passed. It may take another month to get the result.
He didn't ask whether he would fail. After the municipal council decided to open the channel to the blending area, they could only accept the result.
In fact, even as the Speaker of the House, he had no way to stop the progress of this matter.
Because this is the hope of the entire parliament and the will of the consortium, especially the Atomic Company in the consortium, which is now vigorously promoting the biotechnology park in the central city, involving a large number of companies and enterprises; and in the matter of active consciousness, the Atomic Company also gave great support to the parliament, which in a sense also kidnapped the will of the municipal council. They can only follow this force, and there is no way to turn back even if they know it is inappropriate.
Although the three fighters' attack was theoretically a sure win, not to mention that Yuanren Company provided various technical support behind the scenes, there seemed to be nothing to worry about, but he always had an unshakable uneasiness in his heart.
After sitting for a while, he stood up with the help of a cane. His assistant came up to support him and he waved his hand. The assistant understood what he meant, bowed, stepped back, and gently closed the door before leaving.
Speaker Quan tried hard to stand up straight, feeling the friction coming from his stiff legs and feet and joints. At this moment, he envied those old guys of his generation who used implants. They did not need the support of drugs, but could live a bright and healthy life inside and out, and were full of energy.
But as an old fellow who has lived since the founding of Dashun, his ideas tend to be traditional and conservative, and he is full of distrust and resistance to things like implants.
He pondered for a long time, waiting for the medicine to take effect. He picked up his cane and walked to the desk with strong steps. He looked at a separate telephone, picked up the receiver, and dialed a number. After a short wait, a voice came inquiring. He immediately said, "I am Quan Zhuangming, the governor of Jibei. I'm looking for Mr. Guo."
After a while, a young voice came from the microphone, "Speaker Quan? My father just took his medicine and is already asleep. If you have anything to say, you can tell me directly and I will pass it on to him later."
Chairman Quan said, "It's Mr. Guo. Nothing much happened. I just haven't spoken to Mr. Guo on the phone for a while, and I miss him. Oh, yes, I sent some local specialties from Jibei Province to the capital a few days ago. I wonder if Mr. Guo received them?"
A young voice said, "Is there? Well, the capital has been carrying out some kind of discipline and training campaign lately, and the Privy Council is no exception. Many things sent in from other places have to be inspected. Maybe it's been held up there and hasn't been received yet. I'll have someone take a look at it another day. It's nothing important, right?"
"It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal. It's just a small thing. It's not worth worrying about."
"Oh, really? It's really not something important?"
"No, no."
Speaker Quan went on to say, "Since Mr. Guo is resting, I won't disturb him." After saying that, he slowly put down the microphone, paused for a moment, and then turned it on with a click.
He took back his crutch and used it to lean on, then turned around and looked outside. After a while, he took out his ID card and put it on, and sent a message to his family that had been edited long ago. Then he took out a pill from his pocket, ate it, and sat down on the soft chair in front of the desk.
After waiting for a while, the phone on the desk suddenly rang. He looked over and found that it was not the independent phone, but the dedicated line from home. Feeling a little disappointed, he reached out and picked up the receiver: "What's going on?"
"Master, I've passed on your message. The eldest and second young masters refuse to leave, and several of the grandsons are also making a fuss. Look..."
Speaker Quan soon heard a lot of shouting from the other end of the phone.
"The old man is getting senile, why would he ask us to go abroad for no reason?"
"That's right, I don't know what's wrong with me. I have such a big business, and my family relies on me to run around. If I leave, will the whole family starve?"
"The old man wants us to go, okay? Give me a reason. He doesn't need to say anything. He just wants us to go. I have such a huge income every day. Can I just throw it away? Every day I'm away, I lose a day's money. This is all money. If I give it away for free to others to make money, the old man won't feel bad, but I will."
"Dad, I told you before, if the old man has a brain seizure, just get an implant. I have connections, and I guarantee there will be no sequelae or side effects..."
"You know shit!"
Speaker Quan closed his eyes, opened them after a while, and said, "Acheng, let them do whatever they want." He hung up the phone and clicked on the boundary.
Almost the next moment, a timid voice came from inside, "Master?"
Speaker Quan said: "Alei..."
The woman immediately noticed something was wrong, and seemed to be able to sense her cautiousness and nervousness even across the space. "Master, I'm here."
Speaker Quan said, "You'll take Xiaogua with you today. Lao Shao will arrange for your boat tickets to the Federation. I have a property there in Samcolan Island. You and Xiaogua will live a good life there. Money will be deposited into your account every month until Xiaogua comes of age, when the property will be handed over to him. If you have any difficulties, please contact Lao Shao."
The woman said, "Okay, sir, I'll listen to whatever you say. I'll take Xiaogua away right away."
Speaker Quan hummed a sound. This was the first time he felt comfortable today.
The woman said again: "Master, please take care of yourself."
Speaker Quan didn't say anything else and ended Jie Ping's call. He looked at the incessant downpour outside and sighed in an old, feeble voice, "I hope I'm overthinking it."
Shiratori District, the consortium represents the residential area.
Mr. Chi sends telegrams to the company every day to report the situation.
He was also waiting for the result from the Fusion Land. According to the three people, it would take at most two months to confirm. Even if they encountered any difficulties, it would not be difficult for the two god-like fighters to escape. It was impossible for them not to get away.
He knew that the situation at the intersection passage might not be checked, but the main risk was borne by the municipal council. The original company had such a large investment in the biotechnology park, so as long as no real evidence was left, there would not be any big problems.
He poured himself a glass of wine, sat on the sofa and clicked on the field screen, which showed the map and real-time situation of the central city of Jibei Road.
Although he felt that this matter was relatively certain and he was not afraid of being implicated, out of caution he would keep an eye on the movements of various places in the Jibei Road Processing Bureau and the Government Affairs Office every day. If there was any movement, a ship would come to pick him up immediately.
He thought about it and decided to wait a few more days. After mid-month, he would probably get some news.
On the other hand, after Qi Weizhao applied, because this matter involved national security, especially because there were foreign fighters involved, the people from the Fighter Council came very quickly, arriving within a day.
Through inspection and comparison, the identities and origins of Noche and the tuner were first confirmed, and then the true identity of Yuexi was found through the huge information database. This person was named Jin Litai, a fighter who had been active on the edge of the Jibei Dao fusion area for a long time.
There is no record of this person passing through the fusion land, nor is there any record of him going out. He must have entered the fusion land through some unknown rift and became a fighter there.
This person has not signed any agreement with the Fighter Council, so it can be inferred that he is most likely someone specially trained within the Fusion Faction to do the dirty work.
After getting this news, Qi Weizhao felt that the situation was serious on the one hand, and the fusion faction had indeed intervened in this matter, but on the other hand he felt a little relieved, because after confirming the identity of this person, they had a clear reason to attack the fusion faction in Jibei Road.
In the process of operating in Jibei Road, the interests of these factions were deeply integrated with the Municipal Council, and even tied together. There were also many of their members and spokespersons in the Government Affairs Hall, so we took this opportunity to solve them together.
Of course, it is impossible for him to eliminate all the people from these two factions, and the Government Affairs Office will not deliberately target these factions, but will mainly dismantle the municipal council and the forces that support them.
After all the conclusive evidence was obtained, Qi Weizhao immediately convened an internal meeting of the decision-making group in the name of the team leader.
This time, Director of the Defense Department Chen Chuan, Wuyi Principal Yao Zhiyi, Defense Department Commissioner Liang Guanghai, and Garrison Inspector Qiao Weiting were all present and appeared on the field screen in front.
Qi Weizhao looked at the four people on the screen and said seriously, "Everyone, the big impact is approaching. The observatory in the capital has detected that the world is getting closer and closer to us.
To respond to a crisis like this, and for the safety and well-being of all, we must pool our resources as quickly as possible, which requires us to change the current situation where we are constrained.”
"This operation aims to eliminate hostile elements and the forces behind them that threaten national security, creating opportunities for the development of Jibei Province's central city."
He checked his watch. "It's 5:20 PM now. I submitted a report to the Central Control Center half an hour ago. I will have to wait for an hour..."
At this point, he raised his head, his expression resolute. "In one hour, regardless of whether the Central Committee responds or not, we will launch the operation. All political responsibilities will be borne by me!"
