Chapter 1516 I drove away
When Xiao Peng and his companions walked out of the building, Parli and a group of Mobile Military Police were standing at the door. Seeing Xiao Peng and his companions carrying people out, she hurried over and asked, "Is this your family?"
Xiao Peng nodded: "Ms. Parli, give me a car!"
"Car?" Parli was stunned.
Xiao Peng said: "Yes, I want to go back to the Netherlands."
"Drive back?" Parli was stunned.
Xiao Peng nodded: "I don't have time to wait for a plane or train. I just want to leave right now."
Parli asked hurriedly, "What about what I want to know? Can you tell me now?"
Xiao Peng shook his head: "Sorry, Ms. Parli, I can't tell you."
Parli's expression changed instantly. "Mr. Xiao, what do you mean? We have suspended our investigation into Goryeo's shipbuilding order. This matter has caused a huge uproar, and two people even died because of you! And now you're not going to tell me?"
Xiao Peng waved his hand after hearing this. "It's because two people died that I don't feel safe at all now. I don't want to commit suicide for no apparent reason like them."
Parli said hurriedly: "How is this possible? We are friends."
Xiao Peng directly opened the door of an armored vehicle of the Mobile Gendarmerie. He put Van der Laupe into the car, and Bruch and the other two also put Jelena and Kiki into the car.
Xiao Peng said, "Ms. Parli, I'm naturally timid. I need to find a way to make myself feel safe first. I really don't have that here. Kasim."
He waved to Kasim.
Kasim handed him a cell phone, and Xiao Peng handed it directly to Parli.
After taking the phone, Parli shook her head and said, "Xiao, there are some things that can't be said over the phone."
Xiao Peng said directly, "You misunderstood. This call is from Jim Zhao. It contains their client information. As far as I know, 'buying' is illegal in France, right? There are 637 people on this list. It sounds like a lot, but I think you should have no problem handling them, right?"
Parli wanted to throw the phone in her hand - you're going too far, aren't you? How much are you asking of us to help you find a submarine?
Xiao Peng then said slowly, "The thing you were looking for didn't hit anyone, but was broken into two pieces by someone else!"
"You're kidding!" Parli said in shock.
Xiao Peng lowered his voice and said, "I found a fragment of a towed sonar. If it's not from the Suffren, it must belong to the murderer."
"Where is the thing?" Parli asked hurriedly.
Xiao Peng said directly, "Since I told you, I will give it to you. Send someone to the Netherlands and I will tell you the location and give you something. I've given you the list, so I'll trouble you to help solve this problem. This is also for you, France, right? Okay, I'm going to drive this car away first!"
"Brother, where are the car keys?" Xiao Peng asked the military police next to him after he finished speaking.
The military police looked at Parli with confusion.
Parli controlled her anger and said, "Give it to him!"
The military police gave the car keys to Xiao Peng.
After Xiao Peng took the car keys, he said, "Thank you, Ms. Parli. I'll return the car to you when your people go to the Netherlands."
After he finished speaking, he threw the car keys to Bruch and said, "Let's go!"
Parli and others just watched Xiao Peng and the others drive away.
François watched Xiao Peng's car drive away and said, "Minister, are we just going to let him go like this?"
"What else?" Parli said angrily, "Detain him and question him? How come you don't know he's not prepared? Doesn't the way he does things look like someone who doesn't think things through?"
François choked.
Parli lowered her voice and said, "And... he said our submarine didn't hit anyone else, but was hit by another submarine, and now it's broken into two pieces. He also has a fragment of a towed sonar in his hand. If it's not from our submarine, then it must be the culprit. How dare we touch him with these things in his hands? He is so arrogant today because he has this confidence!"
François's face changed drastically after hearing this: "Minister, I think we should hold a meeting to discuss this matter when we get back. If what he said is true, then this information is extremely important to us!"
Parli said, "He must have found our submarine! Otherwise, where did he get the identification tag? It was indeed the ID tag of the 'Suffren', the deputy captain, Leir Hopps. He couldn't have known the crew list of our strategic submarine. So what he said might be true."
"Does that mean our 'Suffren' was attacked?" François said, "No, it's unlikely to be attacked, but it's very likely to be hit. The 'Suffren' is too small, after all, and would be at great disadvantage if it were hit by a large submarine!"
Parli said: "Well, this matter must be discussed carefully."
François asked, "Then what about Xiao Peng?"
"What should I do? I will go to the Netherlands myself when I get back!" said Parli.
François said, "You are our minister. If you go to him in person, it will easily attract people's attention. After all, this is the Netherlands, not France."
Parli thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back and study it first."
François nodded, then grumbled, "Xiao Peng just left like that? He's better off taking the train than driving... huh?"
He didn't finish his words, but looked thoughtful.
"What's wrong?" Parli asked in confusion.
"That's our military police's bomb-proof vehicle. Does that count as robbing military supplies?" François paused and continued, "And wasn't his house flooded? Can he get home? Won't he run away?"
Parli said directly, "François, can you please focus on something more important? He's not going to be on this planet anymore? Where can he go? Besides, his house isn't flooded to the roof, so why can't he go back? Can't you focus on something more substantial when you have time?"
"Something more substantial?" François asked, "Minister, Xiao Peng drove away. How are these soldiers going to get back? Did he do this on purpose?"
“…”
Parli hadn't paid attention to this question just now, but now that she thought about it, Xiao Peng might have done it on purpose! This was very consistent with his style!
It’s so frustrating!
Xiao Peng didn't care how these soldiers got back. Bruch and Kassin took turns driving and didn't return to the Netherlands until midnight: they wasted a lot of time due to floods when passing through Belgium.
By the time Alfred got home, he'd already contacted a doctor and waited for a long time. He said, "Jelena and the other two were drugged to the point of overdosing. They need to undergo detoxification treatment and observation immediately, otherwise they could suffer lifelong consequences! Giving them sedatives like that would make even a normal person go mad!"
These people deserve to die!
