Chapter 1667: Chapter 1667
“Peter, Deputy Chief, Consul General He Chengjian’s eyes flashed.
This person was not a real diplomat.
The Committee of State Security (KGB) had expressed their utmost sincerity in the Dresden incident in order to get He Chengjian’s help. They had even revealed the true appearance of the KGB’s Far East Trump card to He Chengjian.
It was Huo Shaoheng’s counterpart in the opposite world, Peter Huo Shaoheng.
He Chengjian was naturally suspicious. It was not that he had never doubted the true identity of this far east ace.
Later, to completely eliminate any future trouble, he did not care who this person was. He just had to kill him without mercy.
The only person who had miscalculated was Gu Nianzhi. She had caused a slight loophole in his final kill, allowing this far east ace to escape.
The Committee of State Security (KGB) no longer arranged for him to work in secret after his identity was exposed. Instead, they made him a diplomat. It was normal for him to switch from being in the dark to being in the light.
This was how the intelligence agencies of various countries operated.
However, he was only a Soviet diplomat now. What right did he have to meet the highest head of the Huaxia Empire’s military?
Besides, He Chengjian knew very well that Peter, the trump card of the Far East, was pursuing Gu Nianzhi because she had saved his life. He was probably attracted to her because of her counterpart.
But what did that have to do with him?
He Chengjian did not want Gu Nianzhi to have any contact with Peter, the trump card of the Far East.
He walked straight ahead without even batting an eye. “I’m swamped. I Won’t be seeing you.”
The orderly scratched his head and watched He Chengjian’s receding figure. He didn’t dare chase after him and could only turn back to the front of the mansion. Huo Shaoheng, who was waiting for him, said, “Mr. Peter, our chief is very busy and doesn’t have time to see you right now. Why Don’t you leave a message, and I’ll report to our chief later?”
Huo Shaoheng was not surprised that He Chengjian was speaking to him like a bureaucrat.
If they were on the other side of the world, Huo Shaoheng could guarantee that he would speak even more like a bureaucrat than He Chengjian.
He smiled slightly.
Why would he speak like a bureaucrat?
Because they were all people who wouldn’t give up until they saw a rabbit.
“Your general he is truly a loyal and dedicated chief. How can the highest commander of the Empire Be Idle? I understand.”Huo Shaoheng spoke very sincerely as if he didn’t mean anything else.
The orderly had heard this kind of flattery many times and did not care at first.
However, this kind of vulgar flattery came out of Huo Shaoheng’s mouth as if it was real.
The orderly chuckled. “It’s good that you know the difficulties of our chief.”
“Of course I know.”Huo Shaoheng said seriously, “If it weren’t an especially urgent matter, I wouldn’t have come so late to meet your chief. “Please go and report that the matter I want to discuss this time is related to the explosion at the revolving restaurant a few days ago. It’s also related to General He’s only son, major general He Zhichu.”
Hearing that it was related to young Master He, the orderly became serious. “Mr. Peter, do you have any concrete evidence? If you do, I can report it again immediately.”
“Of course I do, but I will only bring it out when I see your chief.”Huo Shaoheng was very serious, and there was a hint of eagerness on his face. He did indeed look like he had important insider information.
Thinking that he was a Soviet diplomat and how capable the Soviet Union was, the orderly became cautious.
“Please Wait a moment; I will go again.”
The orderly was not qualified to call He Chengjian directly from the inside, so he could only run to the mansion again and again.
..
“Reporting, Chief! Deputy Chief of the Soviet Union, Peter, said that something important has been discussed with you. It’s about the explosion at the revolving restaurant a few days ago, and it’s also said to be related to young master he.”
He Chengjian was reading documents in the study. Hearing this, he took off his reading glasses and pressed the intercom in the study. He said to the orderly who was reporting at the door, “What were his exact words?”
The orderly repeated Huo Shaoheng’s exact words without missing a single word.
He Chengjian heard that the Far East Ace had something to say, and he seemed to have certain insider information on hand.
However, the Far East Ace would not take it out until he saw him in person.
He Chengjian pondered for a moment. He remembered He Zhichu had said that the Far East Ace was at the scene of the explosion. With his skills, he might really be able to find some clues.
As for the Soviet snipers and soviet-made weapons in the opposite building, He Chengjian saw it in He Zhichu’s secret report. However, like He Zhichu, he did not think that this matter had anything to do with the Soviets.
Those Soviet snipers seemed to be mercenaries, and mercenaries had all kinds of nationalities. Using such methods to confuse people would only be a joke in He Chengjian’s eyes.
So what secret information did this far eastern ace have?
He Chengjian finally nodded. “Let him in. Bring him to the small conference room.”
The small conference room in the He residence was second only to He Chengjian’s study in terms of confidentiality.
The orderly heaved a sigh of relief and hurried back to the main door. He opened the door and let Huo Shaoheng in, smiling as he said, “The chief invites you in.”
He personally led Huo Shaoheng to the small meeting room of the He residence.
“Reporting to the Chief, Mr. Peter is here.”
He Chengjian’s voice carried a hint of a smile in the small meeting room. “Mr. Peter, please come in.”
Huo Shaoheng walked into the small meeting room. His expression did not change, but from the corner of his eye, he had already sized up the small meeting room.
If he had not seen wrongly, there were surveillance cameras on the roof of the four corners of the small meeting room. There were at least nine pinhole cameras installed in the room, covering every angle from top to bottom, left to right, front to back.
On the opposite wall of the meeting room was a curtain with a pale yellow geometric pattern. It was the highlight of the meeting room.
He Chengjian sat at the head of the only rectangular conference table in the room and looked at him with a smile.
Huo Shaoheng sat down on the seat to the right of He Chengjian and said with a smile, “General He is in a good mood. Could it be that you have a lead on this matter?”
He Chengjian frowned as soon as Huo Shaoheng finished speaking.
He waved his hand. “What lead? I was hoping Mr. Peter would give us some pointers.”
“I wouldn’t dare.”Huo Shaoheng bowed slightly and said humbly, “I just happened to be there at the time, so I realized that something was wrong.”
“Something is wrong? How could such an explosion happen in a restaurant in our country’s capital? !”He Chengjian pounded the table with a pained expression. “This is insane!”
His anger was not at all fake.
This incident was a complete provocation to the government.
Huo Shaoheng nodded deeply. “General he, you’re right. Not only that, but the whole thing is bizarre. I wonder how the investigation is going, general he?”
He Chengjian suddenly sighed as if he had aged ten years.
He thought of He Zhichu, who was still unconscious on the hospital bed, his voice softened.”… My Son, He Zhichu, was originally in charge of investigating this case, but he had just met with misfortune, so the police took over. God knows when they’ll find out who’s behind this.”
Huo Shaoheng pretended to be shocked. “AH? ! What happened to young master he? What misfortune did he meet with? ! Is it serious? !”
He Chengjian looked sorrowful. “He’s unconscious now, and the Doctor said he doesn’t know when he’ll wake up.”. “He looked up at Huo Shaoheng and continued, “Mr. Peter, I know you’re a capable man. “Our country is short-handed now, and you happened to be there. I sincerely hope that you can help us investigate this case. “On behalf of all the victims, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you.”
As he spoke, he stood up and bowed to Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng cursed this old Fox in his heart. He was deliberately showing weakness in order to find free labor to help him investigate the case.
His identity was the trump card of the Soviet KGB’s Far East Bureau. He Chengjian only wanted to open his mouth and say “Thank You,” and he was asked to investigate the case. How big of a face was that? The Committee of State Security (KGB) was the highest-ranking member of the KGB?
Although Huo Shaoheng was criticizing him in his heart, he did not show it on his face. He said awkwardly, “General he, I’m a diplomat from the Soviet Union. This case is your internal affairs. I can’t interfere in your internal affairs.”
He Chengjian had a smile on his face, but he was also cursing this ace of the Far East in his heart. He wanted to pursue Gu Nianzhi, but he did not show any sincerity. The Huaxia Empire did not want to shed a little blood or suffer a little injury, and he wanted to marry a Huaxia Girl?
Don’t dream too much.
“Haha, then why did Mr. Peter Come to see me?”He Chengjian didn’t hesitate to give Huo Shaoheng a piece of his mind.
Didn’t they say that they would come to discuss the case?
They were asking you to investigate the case, but they said you couldn’t interfere in internal affairs?
Huo Shaoheng was choked by He Chengjian’s words, but he didn’t blush at all. He smiled and said, “This is different. I’m now speaking as a victim to general he about my findings. I’m assisting in the investigation. This case is a criminal case, and diplomats can assist in the investigation.”
A criminal case could even be handled by Interpol, so foreign diplomats were obliged to assist in the investigation if they were involved in a criminal case.
However, directly assisting in the investigation would be interfering in the internal affairs of another country.
He Chengjian looked at Huo Shaoheng speechlessly, thinking that the trump card of the Far East was indeed the trump card of the Far East. It could even block his words.
He raised his hand. “Then tell me, what did you find that’s so amazing?”
Huo Shaoheng looked up at He Chengjian, trying to figure out what he was thinking. He said carefully, “I found traces of C-X series high explosives at the scene of the explosion.”
He Chengjian’s pupils constricted, but he still said calmly, “Yes, I saw it in the report. What happened next?”
“C-X series high explosives require a rigorous and sophisticated manufacturing process. An average person wouldn’t be able to make it without the appropriate equipment.”
“Do you even need to say that? This is your secret information?”He Chengjian’s face darkened, and he was about to sneer. “Mr. Peter, I’m very busy. Please don’t waste our time.”
“Even if the appropriate equipment can be made, how can it be installed in Luo Piaopiao’s phone?”Huo Shaoheng continued unhurriedly.
“Installed in Luo Piaopiao’s phone? !”He Chengjian narrowed his eyes subconsciously. “How did you know it was installed in Luo Piaopiao’s phone?”
“Because I was outside the bathroom at the time and heard Luo Piaopiao answer a phone call with my own ears. Then, I heard the sound of the phone’s remote-controlled bomb countdown.”
