Chapter 1677: Back the Black Cauldron
The Department of Defense, a sprawling, giant office is home to top Pentagon officials and senior officials from the C.I.A., the Homeland Security Agency, and the White House. 【】
The meeting was chaired by the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Conference Chief of Staff, who sat at the end of their desks with cold eyes on General Kassel, who was in charge of external support in the Fifth District.
"Could you please explain to us why the Fifth District Minister, Ronkat, died in that lake, and in pursuit of your troops?" The chief of staff asked coldly.
Kassel looked helpless: "Longkart's death really has nothing to do with me, their car crashed into the lake by itself." By the time I salvaged it, Ronkat was dead. ”
The Minister of Defense slapped the table with a slap: "His car is full of bullet holes, and the bullets found at the scene are all from your troops, you told me that his death has nothing to do with you, who believes it?" ”
Kassel was also angry: "Mr. Minister, at that time I received a distress signal from the fifth district, and according to the rules, I led the troops to the rescue. But on the way to the road, I met the truck that Ronkat was riding in, and I motioned for them to stop, but they not only did not stop, but also broke many of my cars. This was recorded on video, and because of this I gave the order to pursue. ”
The chief of staff roared: "The fifth district is under the direct management of the Department of Defense, and without orders from the Department of Defense and the White House, who asked you to shoot at Longkart?" General, you probably forgot who you are, you are protecting the Fifth District, not the supreme commander who went to kill them. ”
"He ran when he saw us, obviously there was a ghost, and I ordered the shooting to stop their convoy, was it wrong?" ”
"Of course it's wrong." At this time, General Kate stood up and looked at Kassel coldly: "Your order caused all the people in the car to die, even the minister Long Carter died, it is hard to imagine that you have nothing to do with this matter." 【. aiyoushen.】”
Kassel stood up directly: "General, be careful of your own words, are you accusing me of what you said just now?" ”
Kate sneered: "If you think so, that's it." ”
Kassel said angrily, "Why are you afraid of me? What's wrong with me doing my duty? ”
Kate gestured with a thick document in his hand: "The people from the Military Intelligence Bureau have thoroughly inspected the Fifth District, and they have found a lot of suspicious points. ”
"First, the fifth district was devastated this time, and it was obviously the guidance of people who were familiar with the inside, so it was able to completely destroy the fifth district in the fastest time."
"Second, we found the strictly secret figure of the Fifth District, Hei Yuan. This guy is said to be a monster and an important capital in the 5th arrondissement. But many of the soldiers were found dead in a strange way, bleeding from their internal organs and without any external injuries. According to the intelligence, they were killed by the special skills of the black abyss. ”
"And we found Kurobuchi's body at the scene, he was shot in the head and died in the corner."
Kate looked at the Chief of Staff and the Minister of Defense: "What is even more suspicious is that the most critical witness of the Minister of the Fifth District, Ronka, died at the hands of our own people. What does this mean? It means that the biggest suspect is none other than Cassel. ”
Kessel slapped the table angrily: "Slander, slander, you are all slandering why I want to kill Long Carter, I have no reason at all." ”
The chief of staff looked at Kate: "Do you have any evidence?" Kassel is also a three-star general, and there must be evidence against him. ”
Kate shook her head: "All the evidence has been destroyed, and the monitoring equipment in the base has even burned the hard disk, which cannot be repaired at all." All satellite surveillance failed at the same time at that moment, and none of them captured the condition of Area 5. ”
"But now it is certain that the attack on District 5 must have something to do with the Black Abyss. Longkat is the only one who can command the black abyss, so the dead Longkart becomes the biggest suspect. ”
Kate pointed to Kessel: "But such an important suspect was actually killed by Kessel." Think about it, what does that mean? ”
Kessel slammed onto the table and lunged straight at Kate: "I'll strangle you bullshit bastard." ”
But he was only halfway through when he was stopped by two officers and forced into his chair.
The Minister of Defense roared: "Kessel, what do you want to do? General Kate's suspicions are very reasonable, do you want to kill people? ”
Kessel yelled like a mad dog: "He's talking nonsense, he's going to frame him." The fifth district is finished, and he wants to find someone to carry the black cauldron. I am innocent, and I will never carry this black cauldron. ”
Kate smiled slightly: "Thank you for all your thoughts, since this is the case, it is better to make it clear!"
He turned his head to look at the Minister of Defense and the Chief of Staff: "There is no way that there is no news from the Congress for such a big matter as the Fifth District. Someone must carry the black pot in this matter, otherwise everyone here will be unlucky. Come to think of it, the 5th district has invested so much money and manpower. Now that we say no, it's gone, what will the people in Congress say about us? ”
The executives in the audience all looked at each other, and had to admit that Kate spoke their minds.
If the Congress pursues it, they will definitely be held accountable, or they will lose their current position because of it.
The Minister of Defense looked at Kate: "Can you get definitive evidence that Kessel is responsible?" ”
Kai nodded: "We have searched the river where Ronqat died and found no one else ashore. So this incident must be that Kessel killed people, and he and Longkart first cooperated to obtain important information about the Fifth District, and then killed Longkart in order to keep it alone and not leak the news. It's as simple as that, and we can falsify other evidence. ”
The Minister of Defense and the Chief of Staff nodded: "Very good, just do it, do you have any opinions?" ”
Executives at the C.I.A. and the Homeland Security Agency shrugged their shoulders and decided it was the best option.
Kessel quit, he was completely angry, these shameless people actually made him bear the black pot in front of him, and they were so shameless that they wanted to falsify evidence for him, this special mother is angry.
"I'm going to accuse you, you bastards are collectively framing me, I'm going to accuse you," Kessel roared.
The Minister of Defense sneered, "Kessel, you are a smart man and know that there are always some things that someone needs to blame." For the benefit of so many of us, you sacrifice yourself. I hope you don't make a big deal out of it, think about your family, and if you want them to bury you, you sue. ”
Kessel's whole body collapsed, he didn't expect things to develop to this point, he knew that he would not chase the damn Longkat if he was killed.
At the end of the meeting, Kessel was put in a cell, and he was waiting to confess in a secret court, and then the scandal in the Fifth District would be sealed forever.
Kate didn't go back to the office and went straight to the rooftop.
He took out his satellite phone and called Lin Feiyang: "The matter has been settled, rest assured, everything has passed." ”
