Naoto Kanno was accompanied by the Minister of Defense, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Chief Cabinet Secretary, and the Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Defense.

The atmosphere of the talks was harmonious, and the questions raised by Rickel were sharp.

Daiki Ronggu first gave a briefing on the progress of the investigation: The intelligence agency has closely monitored all airports and ports, expanded the warning area from 50 kilometers to 150 kilometers, mobilized tens of thousands of people to check passing vehicles and buildings, secretly arrested a number of spies from other countries on the list, conducted an in-depth investigation of the Kawasaki family, arrested Kawasaki Okamotsu's entourage, and closely monitored the flow of domestic funds.

It is a pity that the lost engine has still not been found, and Kawasaki Oka has not been found.

Although Damu Ronggu did not mention it explicitly, Rickel knew very well that it had been almost twenty-four hours since the incident, and no matter how bad the military intelligence was, it also sent the engine out of the book.

"I want to know, how is your country going to deal with the aftermath?" Rickel didn't beat around the bush.

He is an American, not himself, and he is not used to euphemistic and subtle expressions, and he has always been straightforward.

"We are still pursuing it at full strength, and speculating on the possible consequences will not help the investigation in any way, and we ......"

"Mr. Oki, I am also engaged in intelligence, and I believe that my intelligence work experience is no worse than yours." Rickel unceremoniously interrupted Da Mu Ronggu's words, and instead said, "This is obviously a premeditated and prepared operation, very carefully planned and decisive. It's been almost 24 hours since the incident, and the person who has the ability to steal the engine in full view of everyone has the ability to send the engine out of the book. It's not that I doubt your ability to act, it's just that your reaction speed is really too slow. ”

Da Mu Ronggu's face was ugly, and he would never be so direct when he spoke.

In Rickel's opinion, his words were tactful enough. I didn't scold the intelligence headquarters for being a group of pigs, which was already very polite.

"Mr. Rickel, what do you mean......" Seeing that the situation was about to stalemate, Naoto Kanno stepped forward directly and let Oki Ronggu retreat.

"The hope of recovering the engine is already very slim, unless your country has ten times more powerful operational capabilities than ours." Even in front of Naoto Kanno, Rickel was not very polite. "The question now is that we have to think about the far-reaching impact of this incident on both of us and how we can prevent it from happening again."

Naoto Kanno let out a long sigh and said, "We will compensate Loma for all losses and make a written apology to your country for this matter." The intention to purchase F-35B fighter jets will not change, and we will send relevant personnel to your country as soon as possible to find out the specific surname of this fighter jet, and then sign a formal purchase contract with your country. In addition to this, we hope that your country will consider selling more advanced fighter jets to ensure the security of our homeland. As for how to prevent the recurrence of similar incidents, we will work closely with your country in the field of intelligence security and provide you with all necessary support. In the area of domestic intelligence security, we will intensify our efforts to crack down on other countries' intelligence networks, and after the arrival of new fighter jets, we will invite your country's intelligence agencies to share responsibility with us for the security of military bases. ”

Obviously, Naoto Kanno had prepared this rhetoric for a long time.

It looks high-sounding, but it doesn't actually mention the core content.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister's assurance, I will convey it to the President in a timely manner." Naoto Kanno was already low, and Rickel was embarrassed to be aggressive, so he said, "It's just that the precautions mentioned by His Excellency the Prime Minister can only solve the superficial problems and do not help in dealing with real threats." ”

"Mr. Rickel means......" Saigo Hirano began.

He is the chief of staff of the Ministry of Defense, the equivalent of the chief of the general staff, and also the top officer of the intelligence headquarters, which is exactly the same as Ricker's status.

"According to the information provided by you, it is very likely that the mastermind behind this incident is the mainland's military intelligence bureau." Rickel turned his gaze to the Saigo Plains. He had dealt with him several times, and knew that he was a real soldier, but he was not a qualified intelligence officer. "Being able to steal the heavily protected engine while you are closely monitored will greatly increase the confidence and ambition of the Military Intelligence Agency. It's not that I look down on you, it's just that you've behaved hard to believe that you can deal with future threats. Even if domestic intelligence and security efforts are strengthened, they will not be achieved overnight. In my opinion, in addition to strengthening intelligence security, it is imperative to fight back and make the mainland authorities realize that if a similar incident happens again, your country will not give up easily. ”

At this point, Rickel has already taken a stand.

Talking to these politicians, you don't have to say it too explicitly, hints are enough.

Besides, if it is too clear, it will make it impossible for the US authorities to step down.

Several people themselves could not refute Rickel's remarks.

Can you say that security is not strict? If you really say this, it will be tantamount to giving yourself two slaps in the face, and not only will the authorities lose face, but the United States will also bite the bullet.

Since the security measures are tight, it proves that the military intelligence is really powerful, and it is really necessary to return the color.

Intelligence warfare is not about courtesy and exchanges, but about gaining inches!

After tasting the sweetness, the Military Intelligence Bureau will certainly intensify its efforts, and it may be possible to steal the core secrets of the Confessional Authority at some point, and the Confessional Authorities will not be able to step down.

The fact is also true, if it weren't for the sweetness, the third part would not let the second part continue to work hard.

Strengthening intelligence security work is only a passive response and cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

If you want to solve the problem, you have to let the opponent taste the pain and know that Yue Ben is not easy to bully.

The problem is obvious, and I can't deny it.

"What Mr. Rickel mentioned, we are also considering. It's just that the investigation is still ongoing, and it is not yet possible to draw conclusions. Once the truth has been ascertained, it is not too late to discuss it. ”

Naoto Kanno came out of the round and also gave Rickel a clear answer.

Even if he had considered retaliation, he would not have discussed it with the deputy director of the CIA, and the matter should have been discussed at a higher level through bilateral meetings.

Rickel knows who he is, and he knows what he does.

He just spoke for the president and gave him a vaccination.

After the decision is made, the president will send higher-level officials to visit the United States, or invite important officials to visit the United States, and it will not be the CIA's turn to dictate at the strategic decision-making stage.

Subsequently, Rickel left the Prime Minister's Office, accompanied by Saigo Hirano and Oki Ronggu.

At this time, Eiichi Iwasaki was also discharged from the hospital.

This old guy, who never died in a catastrophe, regarded Liu Wei as a benefactor. After meeting his family, he called Liu Wei to the ward and invited Liu Wei to go to Nagasaki with him.

Liu Wei didn't agree, because there were more important things to do, but he just promised to visit as soon as possible.

That night, Iwasaki Eiichi, protected by dozens of bodyguards, returned to Nagasaki on a chartered civilian plane accompanied by several doctors and nurses.

Because of the need to determine the proportion of the investment and the right to speak on the board of directors of the Mitsubishi Foundation in the future, Yasutaro Hashimoto did not rush back to Yokohama, but went to Kyoto and stayed at the house of Sakura Ogata.

When he arrived in Kyoto, Liu Wei handed over the safety work to Nagisa, called the Mobei wolf and the gray-backed jackal, and quietly slipped out in the name of investigating the situation.

When I met Dian Bin, it was already late at night.

"How are they?"

"Still alive, not dead." Dian Bin let Liu Wei and others into the house, "The police car has passed dozens of lies, and there are many military vehicles, so the response of the authorities is really fast enough." ”

"That's all fast?" The gray-backed jackal smiled and said, "In a few hours, the things will be delivered to the warship." ”

"You weren't discovered, were you?"

"I found it, but it wasn't us, it was Kawasaki Okami." Liu Wei walked over and looked at Leon and the others who were lying asleep in the corner.

Dian Bin, this guy, actually bandaged the wounds of the two mercenaries.

Is this necessary?

"What now?" Mobei Wolf came over and asked.

Because he has been eating and drinking spicy food with Ogata Sakura during this time, Mobei Wolf did not participate in the planning work, so he didn't know much about Liu Wei's plan of action.

"Ask him." Liu Wei looked back at the gray-backed jackal.

Mobei Wolf also turned his head and looked at the life and death brothers of the year with a little disbelief.

"Don't look at me, I didn't plan the whole plan." The Grayback Jackal placed the laptop he had brought with him on the table and pulled up a satellite map from it. "Your previous guess is correct, after Mountbatier went into exile, in order to raise funds for the counterattack on Côte d'Ivoire, he has been secretly cooperating with the Kurishima family to provide 'logs' for the Kurishima family. At least that's what the Kurushima family called the blacks who used the [***] experiments. The specific person in charge is Colonel Lyon. Unfortunately, he didn't let me participate in the operation, but several of his subordinates mentioned that the delivery location was on a freighter outside the port of Tsu in Isewan, and each time they used a small boat to send people up, and then approached the Shima family to settle the bill. ”

The map of Ise Bay is displayed on the computer screen.

"This ship?" Liu Wei pointed to a freighter on the screen.

"Yes, it's the ship." The gray-backed jackal nodded and said, "Before you came to the book, I went to see it." The freighter was anchored outside the harbor, several nautical miles from the coast, and ordinary people could not swim up. What's more, the freighter never left, so the 'logs' must have to be moved by other means. ”

"Could it be on the boat?" Mobei Wolf asked.

Liu Wei immediately shook his head and said, "It's just a 10,000-ton cargo ship, and the space is very limited. The experimental base must be nearby, and on a small offshore island, otherwise it wouldn't have been so troublesome. ”

"If you're on a small island, you can prevent people from escaping." Dian Bin added.

"Here." The Grayback Jackal adjusted the map, "This small island is located at the exit of Three Rivers Bay, less than forty kilometers from where the freighter is moored, and there is a small dock on the island, and every month a speedboat will carry supplies up. The security around the island is very tight, and the patrol boats deployed in Gamagori and Handa make several circles every time they leave the port. Unfortunately, I never found the opportunity to go to the island, so I don't know what the island is like. ”

"Then we'll have to make the most of these guys." Liu Wei looked back at Ang and the others.

The gray-backed jackal smiled bitterly, this kind of drudgery would definitely fall on him.
