Chapter 2469 We'll ignore that.
Chapter 2469
The minister gritted his teeth and said angrily, "That president is also trying to use this opportunity to gain some benefits for them. He's trying to force us to withdraw our troops."
The deputy minister remained silent. Everyone with eyes could see what was going on, but no one dared to say it aloud.
Everyone fell silent, and an eerie stillness filled the air.
After a long while, the deputy minister said, "I suggest we wait and see how things develop."
"Although Japan has reached an agreement with us, they are no good either."
“There is strong resistance in H country right now. If we force them to make any promises or changes at this critical juncture, they might use it as an excuse to cause trouble.”
The minister nodded and said, "I agree with that. The parliamentary elections are coming up soon."
"If something goes wrong at this critical juncture and it affects our position, it would be a loss that doesn't outweigh the gains."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Thus, they all unanimously decided to wait and see, and not to pressure H country to hand over the murderer.
They had just finished their discussion when there was a knock on the door.
Then, the knocking turned into banging on the door, which was particularly loud.
The two ministers exchanged a surprised glance.
Someone went to open the door.
Before long, a man rushed in. This man was the congressman behind Rose, a very influential politician in the United States.
When the minister saw him arrive, he frowned and asked, "What brings you here?"
After entering, Carl glanced coldly at the two people in front of him and said angrily, "Who ordered Rose to be arrested? Do you know that Rose is one of my people?"
"She's the one who manages my treasury, the one who makes money for me, and you actually ordered her arrest!"
Upon seeing this, the minister hurriedly shook his head: "We don't want to arrest her, we just want to arrest the troublemaker, and we don't know where Rose is."
Carl sneered, "Do you think I'm stupid? Rose called me and told me that it was you who ordered her arrest."
Neither of them could defend themselves.
The deputy minister then said, "We really didn't give such an order. We don't know who gave the order to arrest her."
Carl sneered, "Then investigate. I need to know who is trying to arrest my people."
"Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner! Before you touched the rose, didn't you think about whether you had the chance?"
"Rose is the one who controls all my wealth. She's the one who makes money for me. Now that you've hurt her, you won't get away with it."
"Also, she was in a car accident not long ago."
"She was also injured in the car accident and lay in bed for so long, almost becoming a vegetable. Do you know how much money she missed out on during the time she was in a coma?"
"Tell me! Did you send someone to hit her?"
Both the minister and the deputy minister were completely bewildered.
Carl was one of the people they were quite afraid of. He held a very important position in Congress, and some even said that Carl would be the next president.
Whether he will become president, they don't know.
But they knew that if Carl really put all his effort into fighting them, they could forget about getting him to approve funding again.
Even if the president signs it by then, they won't get the money.
Just thinking about how the entire military will be unable to get funding and will be held hostage everywhere is enough to make me realize that.
The two of them felt like they were about to collapse.
The two men tried their best to persuade him, flattering him in every way, and even took out their treasured possessions to give to Karl. Only then did Karl calm down a bit and coldly say, "Since it wasn't your order..."
"Then find out who gave the order. In short, I need an explanation for this."
The two ministers quickly nodded in agreement.
Carl left, and the two men looked at each other in bewilderment. They hurriedly sent people down to investigate.
This investigation had some serious consequences, and the results infuriated them.
It was only after investigation that it was discovered that the order was given by Japanese people in the manner of Americans.
Unfortunately, the entire base was airborne, so even if they knew the Japanese were behind it, they had no evidence.
Because Chie and the head of the Cui family were both in the base, they went to heaven with the base.
The situation at the US military base hasn't been resolved yet, and the US military forces don't dare to make any further moves.
Things progressed much more smoothly afterward.
After being rescued, Li Chengze returned to his home and comfortably took a bath in the bathtub.
He took out his phone to call Jiang Wan. He had already activated international roaming, so he could call overseas directly.
He figured Jiang Wan should have returned to Yanjing by now.
So the call was made directly to Jiang Wan's home, and he wanted to tell her that everything here had been resolved and that he had survived.
Of course, he also wanted to ask Jiang Wan: "Where did those family members who are sitting in protest in front of the Presidential Palace come from?"
He heard some rumors.
It is said that someone contacted the victims' families through City Hunter and asked them to sit in front of the Presidential Palace.
Therefore, Li Chengze guessed that the person who paid to contact City Hunter was Jiang Wan.
Although it was just a guess, he was certain of it, so he planned to call and thank him.
But when the call connected, a cold and indifferent reply came from the other end: "Jiang Wan hasn't returned yet."
Li Chengze said somewhat flusteredly, "How could he not have come back?"
Although Jia Haixia didn't know who this person was, she could tell from his slightly strange English accent that he was most likely from country H.
Jiang Wan did not return, so Jia Haixia was not lying.
More importantly, she didn't want Li Chengze to know Jiang Wan's whereabouts.
After asking around for a while and finding he couldn't get any information, Li Chengze had no choice but to hang up the phone.
Why didn't Jiang Wan come back?
The reason is simple: something happened halfway there, and we had to turn back!
In fact, as the captain, Hai Rongtian was quite familiar with this route.
Because this wasn't the first time they'd gone; when they delivered supplies here before, it was Hai Rongtian who piloted this ship.
Logically, the supplies had already been delivered several times, and the flight path was already clear, so there shouldn't be any more mistakes. But the problem is that this time they made a last-minute decision to escape from here.
Hai Rongtian also made the last-minute decision to come and pick people up; everything was so anxious and chaotic.
They completely failed to notice the changing weather at sea.
Just as the ship was leaving the waters of country H and about to enter the waters of China.
Suddenly, a storm arose at sea. A waterspout appeared to be approaching from afar.
After receiving the sailor's report, Hai Rongtian turned pale.
Since he became captain, although he was mentally prepared for all kinds of weather at sea.
But this was the first time we had encountered such a strong tornado.
If the tornado really does pull his boat in, everyone on board will die.
