Chapter 1554 Who Betrayed Whom
Claire Belmont walked backwards out of the door of the top-floor office of the Nine Stars Building with the respectful attitude of a professionally trained elite bureaucrat.
He waited until the door closed automatically before turning around and stepping onto the corridor leading to the outer building. Through the French windows of the corridor, he saw the blue sky covering the entire city skyline. This young and promising young general and inspector of the Administration Bureau stayed in place for half a minute before nodding to the officers who were waiting at the end of the corridor.
The other party responded cleanly.
These are four officers who look very capable, including a lieutenant colonel, a major, and two onlookers. They are the adjutant group of Admiral Finn Berenkester, and they have always been on standby at the desk in the corridor outside the chief's office. If the chief did not call, he would not come to disturb them.
It is not clear whether Claire Belmont himself has received professional training, but these few people are well-trained at first glance.
"Sir, have you finished talking to the Minister?" The chief adjutant with the rank of lieutenant colonel asked routinely.
"We have finished talking. We even spent half a dozen rounds." Claire still had a relaxed smile on his face: "Then I'll take my leave."
"Thank you for your hard work." The adjutants stood at attention and saluted, watching Claire leave with a proper posture.
Until this time, they didn't even notice that a high-level psychic battle had just taken place in the office.
In fact, not only them, but the entire Jiulianxing Building did not notice the changes on the top floor of Building D. All the staff were still in a normal working state, or in other words, very busy working state.
This is understandable. After all, the protesters in this city have gathered 300,000 people. As the headquarters of the national security department and the internal security force, they naturally reacted as if they were facing a great enemy.
However, although the atmosphere in the entire building was busy and tense, there was no sense of panic at all. It seemed orderly, and the orderly order even brought a sense of efficient and deadly killing.
During the battle just now, no one even rushed to the office on the rooftop to ask the minister for instructions, which shows the rhythm of the scene.
This can only mean that Admiral Finn Berenkester had made all the arrangements before the parade began. Of course, it can also mean that the subordinates he brought out are all talented people with good execution and decision-making ability.
Uncle Finn has always been a very capable person! What a pity. Claire thought. Until he left the Nine Star Building, his heart was full of regret and sadness.
When he came to the roadside parking lot across the street and started his car, his personal terminal also jumped. Then, the high-definition holographic projection of Yamida Berenkester appeared on the co-pilot of the car.
Because it was too high-definition, it looked like she appeared in the co-pilot. Claire looked at the bright and beautiful oval face and shuddered involuntarily, as if he saw the owner's hound.
Then, he forced out a flattering smile: "...According to your instructions, it has been resolved. Yani."
"I feel it. The highest security authority of the Nine Star Building is still in my hands. But you did a good job, Krell." Yamida's holographic projection leaned on the co-pilot's seat, indicating that Krell could drive.
Good guy, so I really became your driver, right? Well, but a driver is better than a dog. Krell muttered in his heart, while slowly starting the car.
Fortunately, his mental structure can still be saved, and he finally didn't ask questions like "where to go".
"I have removed Admiral Finn Berenkast's ability to move, and he is taking the subspace channel of the lonely world structure." Krell said in a reporting tone.
"Very good." Yani also responded in the same tone as her superior.
"I cut off his legs. Sorry, my strength is not strong enough to take down Admiral Bei without injury." Krell couldn't help but report in a more detailed way.
"This is what I expected. In other words, you just cut off his legs, which can be regarded as the method with the least loss." Yani said so.
At this moment, Admiral Finn in his words seemed to be just a simple action target, not his own uncle. Such cruelty made Claire feel at a loss, although he was the real executor.
"About, it's just a matter of lying in the petri dish for half a year." He smiled.
"Considering his strength of the fourth ring, it will take about a year. When Uncle Finn can still stand up, his strength should be greatly reduced, but he is not a practitioner who has been deeply engaged in the field of mysticism. Don't worry, Claire, he won't blame you." Yani smiled.
That's really a cause for celebration! Claire muttered in his heart.
"You also successfully removed the space shielding array of the Nine Star Building without alarming anyone." Yani said again.
"After all, it is easier to handle inside the array than from the outside. Now, Admiral Berencaster has already entered the secret detention center of the Extraordinary Administration without alerting anyone."
"Perfect action." Yani was still using the superior mode and commented condescendingly: "I see, Claire, you are already qualified to be a first-level inspector. If there are no other arrangements, then It’s time to do something more ambitious.”
Krell was also a little smug. He broke into the alliance's security headquarters and captured their supreme commander with lightning speed, without disturbing a single person. Such a deadly, efficient and covert action is indeed the most perfect secret operation in any era.
The kind that can be used in textbooks.
However, theoretically speaking, it is indeed a "secret operation" and is illegal. Therefore, I am clearly doing wet work! These days, those who make wet goods for others are just...
"You're trying to say that only loyal hawks and dogs will help lynch people, right?" said Yanni, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
Is my expression so easy to guess? The corners of Krel's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and then his face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"It's not that your expression is easy to guess, Claire, but you want me to guess your expression. This is the only way you can express your dissatisfaction to me. I got it, thank you for your hard work." Yamida comforted her with a smile, looking like a considerate and good leader.
"I don't deny it. I don't deny it either." He twitched his cheeks and almost cried: "But, Yani, we really have no legal basis."
"I don't deny it either. That's why I asked the people I trust the most, at least one of them, you to do it yourself."
"Then I have to thank you for your trust." Krel continued driving listlessly: "You are not afraid that I will overturn the car."
"Of course there are other arrangements." Yani smiled.
As soon as she finished speaking, Creel felt that two military off-road vehicles with very stereotyped shapes and appearances merged into his lane one after the other, forming a natural convoy.
"Saint Collet? Or the one from the fountain?" Claire couldn't help but ask.
Yani turned her head and looked at Krel, her eyes changed from admiration to teasing: "Even if it is a junior measure, I can't use the mercenaries of the security company to go to Jiulianxing Building to get a general! This has something to do with rebellion. What's the difference? Krell, we need a period of unrest, but the unrest must be controlled."
Clay immediately felt that what the other party said made sense and that he was indeed being stupid, so he could only stand at attention and receive the beating.
"That's Astrid. That kid is no match for you in a one-on-one situation, but if something goes wrong, he has a way to control the damage to a minimum." Yani pointed to the car in front of her.
That little fat guy is really reliable. However, he should have come with me in the first place. Why should I take on the most dangerous things myself? Krell was indignant.
"Because you have a valid reason to visit Uncle Finn, and taking Astrie with you seems very deliberate."
Come on, is my expression so easy to understand? Oh, by the way, I did that on purpose. Claire began to feel dejected when he thought about this problem.
"Those are the twins of the Dumexi family. If the commotion is too big, they can enter the scene and use illusions to distort the perceptions of the witnesses at the scene." Yani pointed to the vehicle behind.
Those two cruel little girls. Krell swallowed. Although these two people have never appeared in the scene, he has suffered a lot of losses. It can be said that among the young children of the thirteen families, these twin sisters are the most ruthless.
"I have always thought that the relationship between the Duomexi family and your Bei family is not very good."
"There are indeed a lot of conflicts, but this is just a matter of old men. Young people naturally have young people's way of interacting. From a macro perspective, the so-called conflicts only last a hundred years. In the previous thousands of years, there were indeed many times of confrontation. , but more often when working together," Yani said in a matter-of-fact tone.
Claire once again felt that what the other party said was very reasonable, and he was suddenly speechless.
Speaking of which, isn’t this the case with our Belmont family? This is probably the essence of the alliance.
"It is also the essence of politics." Yani said.
What do you mean by the nature of politics, is it the duality of cooperation and confrontation? Or can the mysticism of a small circle determine all world affairs? Claire wanted to ask this, but he didn't dare.
If it's Yu Lian here, maybe he can answer my questions.
Krell could only be forced to put his career completely on the actual situation: "So, since today's matter involves 'one of our own', of course it can only be done by 'one of our own' personally. Is that right?"
Princess Rainbow Rose did not deny it, but said: "We always have to come out and do something serious."
Who are you mocking? Am I doing less serious things? I participated in the Condemnation War, and I also tightened screws in the Tulong Factory and worked as a model worker. Among us, I have done the most serious things. Krell was indignant.
At this time, this small convoy had left the entire city and headed towards the entrance of a cross-sea bridge on the outskirts of Gem Coast.
At this time, Krell still did not ask where the destination was.
Almost, the people over at Jiulianxing Building should have discovered that Uncle Finn is gone, right? However, there was no commotion on the other side of the building, which probably means that Admiral Naris has already moved in and has quietly completed control of the security department.
He didn't doubt it at all. Since he was going to take action against a secret police chief, he had already made all the arrangements.
However, the transfer of power in the field of homeland security at this time shouldn't cause any trouble, right? You know, hundreds of thousands of angry people have gathered in the square of the Capitol, which is less than ten kilometers away from the Nine Stars Building.
Before Claire expressed his doubts, Yani said, "Since Uncle Finn has made all-round security preparations before leaving office, we don't need to do anything unnecessary."
Admiral Finn is really pitiful. He is indeed an excellent security affairs director.
However, the more excellent the security director, the more serious the disaster will be if he has selfish intentions.
If he had performed his duties conscientiously, how could he have reached this situation today?
When Claire thought of this, the little guilt he felt after cutting off Uncle Finn's legs disappeared instantly. However, he still said with doubt: "If we have to wait until the new commander-in-chief takes office and produces a legal arrest warrant, it will take at least three months. During this period, the Ministry of National Security, the General Military Intelligence Bureau, the Security Police Agency, and the Internal Security Forces all need to operate smoothly."
"They will operate smoothly. The Ministry of Security and the Military Intelligence Bureau are not Uncle Finn's private soldiers. Even if there are some diehards, they will understand the situation." Yani said: "Yes, during this period, Uncle Finn is just sick and in seclusion, and all secret affairs involving violence will only remain at the stage of the Extraordinary Administration."
"Fortunately, the Administration can be trusted." Claire said.
"I thought you would trust the association more than you show." Yani said.
"The Guerrilla Association is an international organization, a mercenary, Interpol, an international volunteer organization, and even an environmental and human rights organization. In terms of the average moral level, the Association is more than an order of magnitude higher than the Administration and Uncle Finn's Security Department. But is the issue of trust discussed here? All large international organizations are impossible to be simple."
...
Mr. Shi Xin, the inspector of the Extraordinary Administration, and Vice President Lanster of the Guerrilla Association collided again.
The two waves of psychic energy that erupted at the same time were like a collision between meteorites and meteorites, and at the same time formed a huge vortex. The uncontrollable and terrible gravitational force of spiritual power rotated rapidly in the vortex, incorporating the torrential rain into it, and then stirred them in all directions.
At this moment, the raindrops that were boiling and surging towards you were all injected with psychic energy, accumulated a lot of kinetic energy, and turned into deadly weapons.
The raindrops fell into the ruins of the factory, but made a sound like bullets hitting steel. At this moment, the island seemed to have really entered the war. The factory ruins and the surrounding flowers and plants on the entire island were immediately in the most dangerous state.
However, the two people who caused this situation stood in the vortex unscathed and began to fight closely. The movements and figures of the two people were unclear, only the constantly flashing beams and gusts of wind.
The four light blades in the hands of Vice President Lanster had long been unclear, as if they were covered by a higher level of power.
"You are just a 'star hunter', you are not my opponent in a head-on battle!" Vice President Lanster's voice was crazy: "Old friend, you forced me to do this! This is your choice!"
"No! You are forcing yourself! You betrayed the country, betrayed the people, betrayed your oath, and betrayed the armor emblem on your chest! And I know why I am fighting! With a firm heart, you will be invincible!" Inspector Stoneheart was unshakable.
