Chapter 1140: Strange Peace
The United States finally can't sit still. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When the death toll of CIA agents in Japan reached 51, the U.S. ambassador to Singapore approached Jiang Chen. At this time, the number of casualties among the agents of the New National Security Bureau was just over forty, and it was still far from the red line of 100 people drawn by Jiang Chen.
In his office on the top floor of the Future Building, Jiang Chen met with the U.S. ambassador named Holman. Because it was not an official visit, and Holman was the only one who came, Jiang Chen did not prepare a conference room alone.
Without superfluous politeness and greetings, as soon as the middle-aged man with a hooked nose sat down, he stared into Jiang Chen's eyes and went straight to the point.
"What do you want?"
"Cleaning the back garden. Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.
Jiang Chen's understated tone made Holman stagnate slightly, his aggressive expression suddenly froze on his face, and anger gradually burned from his heart and lungs to his brain.
Cleaning the back garden?
What a cleaning back garden!
When did the bridgehead of the United States in Asia become your backyard?
However, when he met Jiang Chen's smiling gaze, the anger burning in Holman gradually receded.
As a diplomat, even if he is angry, he will not write it on his face. And his instinct told him that the man in front of him seemed to be deliberately provoking him, and although he couldn't figure out why, Holman didn't intend to let him get his wish.
"It doesn't make any sense for both of us to continue this stupid war, I have come to negotiate with you with a peaceful purpose, and I hope that Mr. Jiang will cooperate a little. Holman looked at Jiang Chen's eyes levelly, and then said, "I'll get straight to the point and ask, what are your conditions?"
"Our conditions?" Jiang Chen smiled and said unceremoniously, "Let your people pack their bags and leave from my territory, and this war will naturally end." ā
No matter how good Holman's cultivation is, he is really hot at this time.
His face gradually became gloomy, and the American with a hooked nose snorted coldly and said in an unkind tone.
"Do you think that by making the choice to avoid war in the Western Pacific, it means that we will remain humble to the end?
Holman was cleverly worded, giving way to the Combined Fleet without a trace, speaking of it as "an option to avoid war." Although this does not change the fact that they have retreated from hegemony, it can add some momentum to him sitting at the negotiating table.
It's just a pity that Jiang Chen didn't pay attention to the threat implied in his words at all.
"It's not that we take ourselves too seriously," Jiang Chen said unceremoniously as he looked at Holman with a smile, "It's that you overestimate yourself too much." My conditions are already here, and if you want an armistice, you can withdraw your men from Japan. ā
After a pause, Jiang Chen looked at him with a smile and continued.
"Of course, if you think my proposal is vexatious, we might as well continue to fight and decide the winner. ā
Negotiations broke up.
It is better to say that from the beginning, Jiang Chen did not expect to solve this problem through negotiation.
Japan is the bridgehead of the United States in East Asia, and as one of the strategic cores of the United States in Asia, they will absolutely not let go easily. What's more, Jiang Chen was not in a hurry to negotiate with them. Now that Mikuren Heavy Industries is working with Sumitomo Group to build a maglev road, when the entire road network in Tokyo is under the backdoor surveillance of Transwarp Trade, the CIA agents will be blessed with their own blessings.
Watching Holman get up and leave, Jiang Chen touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
"It is strange that if the Americans really want to negotiate with us, they will not appoint an ambassador to the new country. ā
As the office door closed, Aisha's figure appeared beside him, where she had been standing since the beginning. Before Holman came here, he was discussing with Jiang Chen about sending more ghost agents to Japan.
"Should they send the Secretary of State?" asked, tilting her head.
"That's right. Jiang Chen touched his chin and fell into deep thought, "This is very abnormal. ā
It wasn't Kerry, but Holman who hadn't even heard of his name.
Not to mention negotiations, does he have the qualifications to negotiate trade terms on behalf of the United States and Transwarp?
ā¦ā¦
Just three days after the negotiations with Holman broke up, the situation in Japan suddenly took a strange turn.
As if receiving some kind of signal, the CIA agents who had been active in Tokyo suddenly stopped their aggressive counteroffensive posture and completely died down. Not only were contacts with right-wing political parties and some pro-US leftist parliamentarians suspended, but even the tracking of agents from the New National Intelligence Service was suspended.
On the other hand, the clues in the hands of the New National Intelligence Bureau have also been broken.
As if overnight, CIA agents all hid from the sun into the shadows.
And just like that, the peace eerily lasted for three days.
The National Police Agency finally breathed a sigh of relief, and although I don't know how long this calm will last, it is a good start. Every time the corpses of "foreign friends" were dragged out of the gloomy alleys, they were heartbroken about the aftermath......
In the villa in the north of Koro Island, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, but the light in the study was still on.
Looking at the battle report handed over by Aisha, Jiang Chen pondered for a moment and suddenly spoke.
"Could it be something happening in Washington?"
Sitting quietly on Jiang Chen's lap, Aisha lowered her head slightly, and said with a somewhat ashamed expression.
"We ...... I haven't received any special news yet. Sorry ......"
The infiltration of Washington by the New Nations Intelligence Agency is low, and ghost agents, while able to come and go freely in the United States, have a hard time penetrating the interior of the American government. I have to admit that the United States does have a set of counterintelligence capabilities.
"Don't blame yourself too much, it's not your fault," he stretched out his hand and gently lifted the porcelain doll-like pretty face, Jiang Chen comforted and said, "After the completion of the Future Heavy Industry Shipyard in a few days, I will go to Star Ring City for a while, and then go to the lunar colony by the way, are you willing to accompany me?"
The sapphire eyes suddenly brightened, but soon dimmed again.
Regret was written all over his face. Aisha pursed her lips and whispered.
"I can't walk away here. ā
Although the CIA's actions in Japan have died down, there is no guarantee that this strange peace will last forever. As the Ghost Agent's Chief Instructor, she must stay in command of Coro City.
"That's right," Jiang Chen looked at Aisha with a slightly apologetic look, gently stroked her hair, and said regretfully, "I'll give you a souvenir back, do you have anything you want?"
Aisha didn't speak, just blinked her big talking eyes and looked straight at him.
The charming atmosphere gradually washed away the quietness and lingered in the room between the two.
After reading the true meaning hidden in her sapphire eyes, Jiang Chen immediately understood that what she wanted was not a "souvenir" at all, but a "condolence gift". So he smiled slightly, consciously turned on the holographic screen of his watch, and pressed the button to turn off the lights.
The last light in the villa went out, and the night dispersed.
The bright moonlight crossed the eaves of the window and sprinkled on the tangled mutton fat jade like a work of art.
The sweat drenched the desk, the chair, and the wooden floor, adding a touch of not very solemn color to the study full of the smell of books......
