The death of Pope Paul made the whole world sigh, and governments sent messages of condolence and sent special envoys to Paul's funeral.

Although the Japanese government is the same, it has also caused some variables in the 'demon eradication' plan.

After leaving the Prime Minister's Office, Takeda Kimori went straight to the Ministry of Defense and convened an emergency meeting of the members of the 'Demon Eradication' project team.

Someone Jianyi immediately advanced the plan, taking advantage of the fact that he did not have time to take care of too much during the transition of power in the Holy See, and began to attack Caesar.

Some people think that it is inappropriate, just after the death of the Pope, accusing the cardinals of the Holy See of being terrorists will make people think that they are taking advantage of the fire to rob and will cause the anger of the Holy See.

The opinions of the participants were not unified enough, and Takeda Kimori, who presided over the meeting, also felt in a dilemma. When I consulted with the Prime Minister before, the Prime Minister had the same concerns, both thinking that it was a good opportunity, but also afraid of attracting the wrath of the Holy See, after all, the timing was too sensitive, so let him come up with a careful plan.

Takeda's new secretary, Ono, quickly entered the conference room and muttered a few words in Takeda's ear.

"You continue to discuss, make sure you come up with a well-thought-out plan." Takeda Musen threw a sentence at the participants, quickly walked out of the conference room, went straight to his office, and picked up the phone on the table, "Miss Jesse." ”

Jesse's voice came faintly from the phone, straight to the point, without even meaning to say hello, "Your Excellency Takeda, I think your 'demon extermination' plan can begin." ”

Takeda Kimori hesitated and asked, "You mean to start the plan earlier?" ”

Jesse asked rhetorically: "The Pope is dead, and the Holy See has no one to preside over the overall situation, don't you think this is a good opportunity?" ”

Takeda Kimori hesitated: "It is indeed a good opportunity, but it is precisely because the Pope has just died and is still in the mourning period, so we take action at this time." It is very likely that it will cause public indignation in the Holy See, which will be very detrimental to our Japanese government. ”

Jesse immediately said in a sharp voice: "Your Excellency Takeda, without the Pope in charge, it is a good opportunity to start, even God is helping you, you must not miss it!" ”

Takeda Kimori didn't know how to answer, but he was still a little hesitant, and it was no joke to accuse the cardinals of the Holy See of being terrorists during the Pope's death, once it provoked the wrath of Catholics all over the world. Not to mention Japan, even the United States will not be able to bear it, and it will trigger an unprecedented protest around the world.

Of course, the other party thinks it's a good opportunity, because it is the Japanese government that takes the lead, and the accident will not have much impact on her. The Japanese side did not dare to say that she was behind it, but the Japanese government was miserable. Takeda knew very well that things were going on in religion, and his position was hard to keep, and even Jesse couldn't keep him.

Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Jesse guessed his concerns and felt that his tone just now was too harsh. changed his tone and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Takeda, you have too many concerns, you are a person who does great things." If you want to realize your political ambitions, you must not be afraid of risks, and you must not forget who is helping them run the vast assets of the Holy See. ”

Takeda Musen's eyes lit up suddenly, and the assets of the Holy See have always been managed by the Morgan consortium...... He tried to ask, "Miss Jesse, what do you mean?" ”

Jesse giggled, "The Holy See without the Pope is a mess." I can have some influence on the decision-making level of the Cardinals, at least to keep their anger to a minimum. As long as the decision-making level of the College of Cardinals does not agree on the opinions of the decision-makers during the transition of the powers of the Holy See, they will not be able to condemn you in the name of the Holy See. I think you politicians should understand that. ”

Takeda Kimori perked up, "Hi! I understand. ”

Jesse smiled: "Your Excellency Takeda, let it go, as long as you start, the US government will immediately entangle all allies to issue a severe condemnation of the world's number one terrorist today, and the next 'pull the lamp' will end in front of our eyes." ”

After Takeda Musen hung up the phone, he was refreshed, slammed his fist on the desk, turned around and walked quickly to the conference room.

He had to ask his subordinates to come up with a detailed plan and report it to the prime minister......

In the middle of the night, a car quietly pulled out of the official residence of the French president and pulled all the way to a secluded corner of the streets of Paris.

Serena got out of the car and looked around, she was awakened by her father in her sleep, and asked her to pick up an acquaintance herself. She wondered which acquaintance she was picking up, and she wasn't allowed to bring bodyguards, so she had to sneak around like this and make such a mysterious fuss, but her father Bruce didn't tell her who she was picking up.

After waiting for a while, a figure flew down from the roof next to it and stepped out of the darkness.

Lin Zixian, who had regained his true face and tied a ponytail, appeared in front of her and greeted her with a smile, "Serena, long time no see!" ”

Serena was stunned, she admired and feared this man, even if she became a little princess of France, the shadow left in her bones was still there, as soon as the other party approached, she immediately subconsciously took a step back, nodded a little cringe, squeezed out a smile and said: "Caesar!" ”

Lin Zixian opened the back door and sat in, and when he saw that she was still outside, he immediately smiled and said, "Get in the car, I'm the one your father asked you to pick up." ”

Actually pick him up? Serena slipped into the car a little speechless, started the car and turned back.

She couldn't figure out why her father, the president of France, had so secretly met with the terrible people of this underworld.

If you can't figure it out, you don't want to, she doesn't participate in the affairs on the government, and her father's doing this must have something to do with the things on the government.

Serena didn't dare to say anything along the way, only occasionally peeking at the scary guy in the rearview mirror.

Her Royal Highness the princess will naturally not encounter any difficulties in entering and leaving the president's official residence, which is why Bruce Lao drove his daughter out in person, and Bruce did not want people to see what he had in touch with Julius Caesar in the underworld.

When passing by the doorman, Lin Zixian leaned over, avoiding the guard's gaze in the car.

Bruce also got up, and sat alone in the study with a wry smile, Caesar came to him at the moment of the Pope's death, and there was no need to guess what he wanted to do.

He couldn't imagine how the whole world would react once such a person got to that position.

But then again, once the other party is pushed into that position, it is tantamount to pinching the handle of the other party, and it can produce the effect of mutual cooperation, although the benefits are not as beneficial as the introduction of their own people, but they can undoubtedly get favorable support from the religious side in the future, and the benefits are still not small, and it is a win-win situation.

Not long after, Serena knocked on the door and led Lin Zixian into the study.

Bruce and Lin Zi looked at each other and smiled, and the smiles on the corners of their mouths were the kind they knew. But in Serena's eyes, she felt that the two of them were smiling a little weirdly, and she shuddered, a French president secretly met with a king of the underground world in the middle of the night, and he didn't know what conspiracy was hidden behind his back.

However, she was born in a political family, of course, she understands the dark side of politics, and her eyes are dripping and rolling around her father and Lin Zixian, wondering what these two can talk about?

Bruce stood up from behind his desk, waved at Serena and smiled, "Serena, you go to rest, I'll entertain your friends." ”

Serena was speechless, what do you call my friend, is it your friend? It's like it's helping me to accompany a guest, and can you still use such a hypocritical excuse in front of me?

When Lin Zixian didn't dare to say anything, when Serena left the study and closed the door, she saw her father and Lin Zixian shaking hands together through the crack in the door......

After Serena returned to the room, she tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't sleep, tossing and turning until it was almost dawn, the phone at the bedside rang again, picked up the microphone, and Bruce's voice came, "Serena, send your guests back." ”

So Serena muttered dissatisfied, and began to get up and change her clothes again. Bruce did not send the guest to the door, but once again quietly sent Lin Zixian out by his daughter.

The car drove through the lonely streets, and Serena drove seriously, still occasionally peeking at the people in the rearview mirror.

Lin Zixian accidentally caught a glimpse of it, and said with a smile: "Serena, I heard that you have a stake in the Montessori Hotel?" ”

"Yes." Serena replied decently.

The corners of Lin Zixian's mouth curled, "Don't be nervous, I promise that we will be friends in the future and will not embarrass you again." ”

In fact, he felt that he couldn't be a real friend with this girl, but he still had to say this, wanting to let Meng Zidan, who was in a foreign country, have more reliable help.

Serena's eyes flashed with surprise, and she stared distractedly in the rearview mirror and asked, "Would you like to be friends with me?" ”

Lin Zixian nodded, "Yes." ”

Serena immediately asked again, "Friends on an equal footing?" ”

Lin Zixian nodded again, "If you want, I think so." ”

"Deal!" Serena responded decisively, her eyes beating with excitement. In fact, this woman has a strong knightly complex, although she was scared by Lin Zixian, but she didn't worship Julius Caesar, it was difficult to be a follower before, and she couldn't imagine that she could be friends with Julius Caesar in the dignified underground world now, which was not an ordinary excitement.

"Stop ahead." Lin Zixian said suddenly. He was going to stay at the Montessori Hotel temporarily, but he didn't want Serena to deliver it directly, it was too eye-catching.

Selena became lively in an instant, as if she had returned to the past, and said, "It's okay, I'll take you to the hotel." ”

"Not today, I just met your father in secret." Lin Zi chuckled.

Serena, who was born in a political family, said that she understood, turned the car to a dark corner and let Lin Zixian get out of the car, and only turned back when Lin Zixian disappeared.

It was not far from the Montessori Hotel, and Lin Zixian walked a short time into the hotel, and Adams was waiting for him in the lobby.

The two met and came upstairs, it was still the room where Lin Zixian used to live, Adams handed him the room card after opening the door, and said with a smile: "This room has always been kept for you, and no one else has lived in it." ”

He also wanted to follow up in the house to talk about what happened in Japan, but he was pushed out by Lin Zixian, "Get out!" I want to rest. ”

Lin Daguan was angry when he saw this guy, a bunch of unlucky guys, and they were embarrassed to come.
