217. Benjamin's whereabouts

The office building of the "Transitional Council" is located in the center of the city of Mexico, opposite the majestic Phaltik Park.

At this moment, Lu Li and Jessica came by car together to attend the meeting convened by the lady.

The place is heavily guarded, and the guards in suits and leather shoes, carrying HK416 automatic rifles, scan the surroundings with cold eyes.

This is the lady's newly formed secret service team, each of which has been ruined by drug lords, and its loyalty is extremely guaranteed.

But there is also a little more unruliness without worry, and some people do not restrain when they look at Lu Li, and their eyes are full of scrutiny and doubt.

Lu Li didn't care, just like seeing a friend's dog, as long as he didn't bark, no matter how serious he was, it was just fun.

He took Jessica upstairs and walked to the brightly lit conference room on the top floor.

There were about 20 people sitting at the conference table, including Ms. Maria, Teresa, and Aurora.

The rest of the people are not simple, they are all at the heart of the transitional committee, the cabinet members nominated by the lady.

At this moment, Lady Maria was the first to stand up and greet her:

"Lu Li, I'm glad you came to the meeting, let me introduce ......"

The ladies introduced the future ministers of the interior, foreign affairs, national defense, and navy in turn.

According to international etiquette, His Holiness has the right of first refusal to know, and the status of being introduced first is low.

Several high-ranking officials were dissatisfied, believing that Lu Li was at best a powerful military leader, and it was quite inappropriate to rank in front of a group of cabinet ministers.

But this is a spontaneous move of the lady, and they are not good at saying anything, just keep a calm face.

However, there are also three people who are extraordinarily enthusiastic.

The first is the Minister of the Interior.

This man is a campaign assistant who came out of Tijuana, and he knows Lu Li's skills.

I also know that the lady has something important to call someone to come today, of course she doesn't dare to ask for it.

The second place is the Minister of Defense "Corina".

He had just been rescued by Lu Li, so he was naturally very enthusiastic at this time. And the fact that the "permit" was done so quickly also has the credit of this person.

The 3rd was the Minister of the Navy, former Marine Corps Colonel "Garcia".

The two sides got along happily before, and they also knew Lu Li's ability, so they naturally greeted each other with a smile and shook the hand of the old man for a long time.

After the introduction, Lady Maria smiled and said:

"Your 'permit' is ready, let Teresa take Miss Jessica to handle it."

Lu Li nodded, and Jessica went with Teresa.

Ms. Maria added:

"Thank you for your continuous dedication, I promise you that DPCA will undertake a part of the national defense project."

The most profitable thing for military companies is not to charge into war, but to build and train logistics projects, which are really lying down to make money.

Madam Maria has been treated so favorably that individual cabinet ministers have begun to murmur.

Especially for some people who joined later, their understanding of Lu Li was limited to what they had heard, and they looked even more worried.

And the courtesy must be demanded by others, and Lu Xun has already counted it: it seems that the lady is in big trouble again.

What happened next was just as he thought.

The meeting began shortly after, and Ms. Maria began with a briefing:

"Thanks to Lu Li's previous righteous actions, we captured Callette alive and deterred the current Minister of Defense ...... through the information in his mouth."

As with all meetings, it starts with good news.

Immediately afterward, Ms. Maria changed her words:

"But through the interrogation, I also learned another news - the major drug cartels will join forces to launch a nationwide riot before the inauguration!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions froze.

Ms. Maria's policy is clear about fighting crime, and the drug lords will definitely have to band together to prevent her from taking office.

After a moment of silence in the room, the Minister of Security spoke:

"The garrison is strong enough to keep the capital safe, and we can hold out until after the inauguration and then negotiate with them."

This is to wait for the right to settle down and then slowly mediate.

This plan was immediately endorsed by the majority of cabinet ministers, who spoke strongly in favor of it.

"A wise choice."

"We must quickly mobilize the most elite troops back to protect the capital!"

……

But there were also those who disagreed, and Secretary of the Navy Garcia and Secretary of Defense Kolena shouted:

"Are we doing nothing and watching the country and its people descend into riots!"

Hearing this, the chief of tourism, education, etc., immediately retorted:

"The government army is no match for the drug lord forces, what can you do?"

"There is no shame in negotiating, the previous government also gave in to the drug lords."

"Most of the time, we can only pray for God's blessing."

……

The gang argued for a long time, and Lu Li was quite bored to watch.

After all, it is a small country, and the powerful have no bottom line, and they are greedy and stupid.

But there are also scheming people who look at Lady Maria and think that this woman will not be so simple.

At this moment, Lady Maria tapped lightly on the table to stop the argument.

After everyone looked at it, he said:

"Gentlemen, I don't plan to start any peace talks with drug lords. They have been arrogant for too long, it's time to pay! ”

"But ......"

The lady showed a tough attitude, but toughness can be based on strength, and many cabinet ministers have scruples.

Lady Maria didn't give them a chance to speak, and immediately said solemnly to Lu Li:

"I need your strength, please fight for the country!"

It's a strange scene...... A Franciscan, asking a Xia descendant, to fight for a foreign land.

Lu Li said calmly: "I'm happy to eradicate the drug lords." ”

Lu Li didn't have a sense of belonging to this land, he just wanted to go hunting, that's all.

But that's enough, both sides have the same goal.

Maria nodded, and said to the cabinet members first:

"Please discuss as soon as possible a plan to minimize the damage of the riots."

No one wanted to take over a mess, and a bunch of bureaucrats took the order.

Lady Maria stood up and beckoned Lu Li to another separate room.

Seeing that Teresa and Jessica were also here, Jessica also lit up a thick document bag in her hand, signaling that the "license" was in hand.

A minute later, Aurora, Garcia, and Corena all came.

Now the room is full of people who can be absolutely trusted, and Ms. Maria said directly:

"The information obtained from the interrogation of Callette has allowed us to grasp the current Minister of Defense. He had dealings with multiple drug cartels and we got this on him! ”

With a wave of her hand, Aurora took out a satellite phone and continued:

"This is an encrypted phone used by the Secretary of Defense to communicate with Benjamin himself. Benjamin didn't know that the phone was in our hands, and we could locate it as soon as we dialed it! ”

Lu Li's eyes lit up: "In other words...... Can you find this person? ”

"That's right!" Lady Maria nodded:

"Getting rid of him will not only leave one less enemy, but other drug cartels will be too busy fighting for territory to start a riot.

But Benjamin was very cautious, and he had tens of thousands of elite soldiers around him. I would like to ask, will you be able to accomplish this difficult task? ”

Lu Li is not afraid of any arduous work, but he doesn't think there are enough people on the other side, and now he is about to drive the soul of the Terminator.

"As long as the information is accurate, I am 100% sure that I will eliminate this person."

"Good!" Lady Maria took a deep breath: "Then let's get started!" ”

Garcia and Corena glanced at each other and sighed at this crazy action...... To hunt a "king"!
