Chapter 238: Bodyguards from the General Staff
"I've already called that Irishman, and that bastard is probably already working. Hehe, you guy is too bad, I'm afraid that Linhua Group will cry in a few months. Roberts laughed.
"I'm just making the greedy pay the price. Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.
The Wang family would never have dreamed that Johnny International was just a puppet indirectly supported by Jiang Chen through Roberts. When the regime of the Panu Islands is overthrown, Johnny International will also be declared bankrupt, and the contract between Wang Linhua and the Panu authorities and Johnny International will become a piece of waste paper.
This 10 billion dollar project, the Wang family will lose all their money!
"Speaking of which, when are you going to leave?" Roberts asked, getting down to business.
"It may have to be postponed until January, and I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the country this month. Jiang Chen said helplessly.
"Exit restrictions? Roberts gloated.
When he first returned to the United States from Iraq, he was also restricted from leaving the country by the FBI, until he deregistered the shell company in Saudi Arabia and then disposed of the cruise ships that transported crude oil, and his name was removed from the blacklist of major airlines.
"It's only a month, and it's fine after this month. How's the training at the mercenary base?" Jiang Chen said with a yawn.
"It's been almost trained, and according to Ivan, those recruits already have a bit of a warrior's appearance. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Chen nodded, and when the training was completely over, he would be able to make the next plan.
"What about the Irish?"
"starred in his true colors, and interpreted the role of the villain to the extreme. Roberts said brightly. "Anyway, there is no one in the Panu Islands who doesn't hate that American, except for those officials who took bribes. ”
"Then follow the script. It's time for a savior, too. The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth rose.
"That's right, so you've got to hurry. Roberts teased.
Hung up the phone. Jiang Chen stretched, put the satellite phone in his pocket, and leaned back in the chair.
It's going to be an easy month, but he won't be able to stay at home from tomorrow onwards.
Only by going out and walking more and letting those who are skeptical see with their own eyes that the program really did not come from him, can he be said to be truly safe.
This is very easy to do, as long as those people see that he has not touched the computer much these days, there is no "crime time" at all. Then, a month later, the finished product was suddenly taken out, and those doubts were naturally dispelled.
Just when Jiang Chen was thinking about whether to make a phone call with Liu Yao and tell her about the postponement of her vacation in the Panu Islands, a soft knock suddenly sounded at the door of the study.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chen turned around and said with a smile as he looked at Aisha who was standing at the door.
"Someone out there is looking for you. Aisha said softly.
Is it already here?
"Well, got it, just leave it to me. Jiang Chen smiled and got up from his chair
A black Santana was parked outside the courtyard gate of the villa, and a man stood like a sculpture outside the iron gate of the villa courtyard wall.
1.8 meters tall. With a slightly dark face and a neatly shaved flat head, his appearance can only be described as ordinary. Some of the old gray coats made him look inconspicuous, but there were also people who despised his abilities because of it. There is no doubt that there will be a price to pay for their own light enemies, for those agents from hostile forces.
Walking slowly to the gate of the courtyard, Jiang Chen smiled at him in a friendly manner, and then opened the door for him.
"The Seventh Bureau of the General Staff. Old knives. Seeing Jiang Chen coming, the man stretched out his right hand. Said meticulously.
This man named Lao Dao was the bodyguard sent above to protect Jiang Chen's safety. One aspect of this is the meaning of protection. On the other hand, there is also a hint of precaution. However, Jiang Chen didn't care, after all, it was only this month.
"Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen shook hands with him and said in a relaxed tone.
At the moment of shaking hands, Old Dao's face showed a look of shock, and he looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief.
For the shock on the old knife's face, Jiang Chen just smiled faintly, and then let go of his hand.
"Mr. Jiang has touched the gun?" asked the old knife in a deep voice.
"I played it when I was overseas, and I don't think it violates domestic law. Jiang Chen smiled and said.
Without answering, Lao Dao just nodded, then took out a document from the inner pocket of his coat and handed it to Jiang Chen's hand.
"From today onwards, I will be responsible for your safety until the program is developed and handed over to ZTE. If you have any comments about my work, you can call the number on this document and ask my superiors. I will work as little as possible to interfere with your daily life, but I would like to ask Mr. Jiang to cooperate in avoiding crowded places as much as possible during these 30 days to make my work easier. ”
"Will I encounter any danger?" Jiang Chen said with a slight frown.
"The possibility of encountering intelligence agents from outside forces cannot be ruled out. The old knife said very succinctly.
Jiang Chen nodded.
This situation is also expected by him, until the program is completed and delivered, if anyone wants to prevent Huaguo from obtaining the intelligent control system of the drone, it is undoubtedly the easiest way to attack him.
But after this month, things are much safer.
"No problem, do you need me to provide you with a room?"
The man, Old Knife, shook his head.
"No, I will keep a certain distance from you, Mr. Jiang can be completely non-existent. ”
"Then where do you live?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
The old knife raised his finger and pointed at the black Santana behind him.
"It's OK in the car. If you have any special circumstances, please call me. ”
"No problem. Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders, and just wanted to say that it would be so, but suddenly remembered something, so he continued, "By the way, what about my family?"
"Your people are already protecting you in the shadows, so rest assured. The old knife said affirmatively.
Regarding the threat of external forces, Jiang Chen himself was actually not very afraid. In terms of individual combat effectiveness, I'm afraid that there is no one on this side of the world who is his opponent. Even if it's this General Staff agent called Lao Dao. The only thing that worries him a little. It's his parents who are far away in Lake City.
Although Lao Dao said that he had sent someone to protect them secretly, Jiang Chen was still a little uneasy.
The original plan was to go home during the Chinese New Year. Surprise the two old men, and at the same time selectively explain to them what their current situation is. After all, some words are not clear on the phone. It's better to say it in person.
But now it seems that it is necessary to go back early.
After briefly telling Lao Dao about his recent itinerary, Jiang Chen returned to the villa.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the virtual reality training pod has been retracted into the storage space by Jiang Chen, and Aisha, who has nothing to do, sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV after completing the two-hour fitness program.
Seeing Jiang Chen coming back, she picked up the remote control and turned down the sound of the TV, looked over and asked.
"Is it over yet?"
"Hmm. Speaking of which, what do you think of that person's strength?" Jiang Chen naturally referred to the old knife.
"Weaker than me. Aisha only thought for a moment. Having come to this conclusion, he went on without thinking, "At least he didn't notice my gaze when I looked at him. ”
I don't know if the old knife will have the idea of finding a piece of tofu to hit him to death after hearing this evaluation.
"Is my Aisha so powerful?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but reach out and rub his brown hair, complimenting.
Pretty face flushed slightly, and Aisha lowered her little head a little shyly.
"After all, I've already experienced at least 500 similar trainings in that device, is that level of bodyguard necessary? ”
Even a battle-hardened veteran is unlikely to experience 500 missions in peacetime. Then consider the degree of simulation of the virtual reality system. and the linear improvement of physical fitness by genetic medicine, the old knife that is obviously an old agent, it is actually not unjust to lose to Aisha in terms of strength.
"Some things are not what they seem. It wasn't so much that the bodyguard named Old Knife was there to protect me, but rather to spy on me. Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders. Said helplessly.
Hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Aisha's eyes, and she whispered something dangerous.
"Do you want me to kill him?"
"Ahem. That might get you into more trouble, just ignore him. The trouble is only this month. After this month, we can move. ”
"Isn't it good to move?" Aisha asked, tilting her little head.
"It's not a question of whether it's good or not. The main thing is that there are so many things to worry about here. Not wanting to explain too much on this issue, Jiang Chen said simply.
Aisha nodded in understanding.
She didn't really understand the trouble Jiang Chen was facing. One thing she was clear, however, was that no matter what he was facing, she would raise her gun for him if he needed it.
Just like when it was in Ukraine.
Reaching out to wrap her hand around Jiang Chen's neck, she used her blue eyes to gaze at those black eyes gently.
"Wherever you go, I'll be with you. ”
Feeling that his heart was filled with warmth, and with a pounding heartbeat, Jiang Chen couldn't help but bow his head and kiss that seductive lip.
The atmosphere of silence lasted for a long time, and it took a while for the two to separate.
"I'm going to go back to Lake City tomorrow. ”
"Hucheng, your hometown?" she vaguely remembered what Jiang Chen had said.
"Well, I'll be over there for a month, and you might as well bring a change of clothes. ”
Speaking of this, Aisha's cheeks suddenly turned slightly red, and her voice took on a rare hint of cowardice.
"Can I meet your parents?"
Jiang Chen was stunned, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
Yes, yes, but it always feels a little bit
"If it's troublesome, forget it. Aisha was a little disappointed, but said softly.
She didn't want to embarrass him.
"No, it's not troublesome, but you have to promise me one thing. Jiang Chen said with a little embarrassment.
"Hmm!" The blue pupils gradually bloomed with excitement.
"If my parents ask you about your age, you'll say it's past your 18th birthday" (to be continued......
