Just as the threshold for royal gardens is the highest in the country, the White House is the most difficult place to enter in the United States.
none of them!
The White House is the presidential palace of the United States. It is located on Pennsylvania Avenue in the center of Washington, facing the towering Washington Monument. It is a white three-story building. It is named White because its exterior wall is made of white sandstone. palace.
In the early morning, the bright sunshine poured down, and the flowers, plants and trees in front of the White House greedily enjoyed the sunshine, creating a vibrant scene.
Contrary to the scene outside the White House, the inside of the White House building was lifeless and gave people an extremely depressing feeling. So much so that the heads of the CIA and FBI who received orders to enter the building felt as if a huge mountain was weighing on their hearts. It took their breath away.
As the heads of the Central Intelligence Agency and the FBI, they are considered powerful figures in American politics, and they also secretly serve as the president's assistants - they often come here to report to the president in person. He knows the terrain and environment well.
Soon, the two of them entered the President's Office with a heavy heart.
In the office, the president sat at his desk, squinting and staring ahead with red eyes, as if the empty wall opposite had a grudge against him.
In addition, his majestic face was sallow, and he looked particularly haggard and tired, and even more angry, like a volcano that was about to erupt at any time.
All this is just because Sixty hours have passed since the US military database was stolen, but so far, the suspects Pei Donglai and Ye Gucheng seem to have disappeared from the world, despite the US intelligence agencies, No matter how hard the special department tries, they can't find their shadow!
¡°Perhaps because they knew that the president was in a very bad mood, or perhaps because of dereliction of duty, after the heads of the CIA and FBI departments entered the door, they did not dare to disturb the president. Instead, they lowered their heads and did not even dare to take a breath.
"Tell me the current situation!"
About half a minute later, the president turned his attention to the heads of the CIA and FBI, and his tone was low and dignified.
"Reporting to your Excellency, the President, in the past twelve hours, major domestic airports and terminals have remained closed. In addition, after our communication and consultation, Mexico and Canada have also closed their airports and terminals, and have also closed their airports and terminals. The border is strictly monitored and controlled, and we will be notified immediately if there is any news" The head of the CIA immediately reported the intelligence obtained in the past twelve hours to the president.
It¡¯s just that¡ before his report was over, the president interrupted him coldly: ¡°I just want the results.¡±
"Sorry, Your Excellency, as of now, we still have not found the target."
The head of the CIA lowered his head, although he wanted to tell the president that as long as the airports and docks in the North American continent were closed, and the smuggling giants were allowed to participate in the pursuit of Pei Donglai and Ye Gucheng, unless Pei Donglai and Ye Gucheng gave wings to , otherwise it would be impossible to leave North America, but he also knew that there was no point in saying this now.
"Trash!"
¡°Perhaps the answer from the head of the CBI made the president very dissatisfied, or perhaps the president¡¯s patience was almost exhausted. He couldn¡¯t help but cursed, and then turned his attention to the head of the FBI.
Catching the president's gaze, the head of the FBI quickly reported the report without waiting for the president to ask questions: "Your Excellency, President, I have carried out a search for Chinese agents and spies in accordance with your order, and have arrested key members of the Chinese Alliance in the United States. He was taken away for investigation, butwhether it was the agents and spies under our control or the members of the Chinese Alliance in the United States, they all stated that they had not seen the target. There was also the person in charge of the embassy, ??who also firmly stated that he had not seen the two people."
Perhaps because he was afraid that he would enjoy the same 'treatment' as the head of the CIA, he was interrupted by the president. At this point, the head of the FBI paused knowingly. Seeing that the president did not say anything, he continued: "Other than that , the Mafia Council mobilized all available forces to conduct searches across the United States, but there was no news about those two people. And those smuggling tycoons have been controlled by us. In the past sixty hours, they have received some tasks, But after investigation, it has nothing to do with the target"
Towards the end, the voice of the head of the FBI became softer and quieter, to the point where it was almost impossible to hear.
Becausehe saw that the muscles on the president's face were slightly distorted, and his expression was so gloomy that he felt heart palpitations.
"Notify Congress that a meeting will be held at 14 o'clock, and all representatives must be present."
Later, with the FBI and CIA looking frightened, the president picked up the phone and dialed the vice president's office and issued an order, his tone unquestionable.
Um? !
The president's order rang in his ears, and the heads of the FBI and CIA had no reason to move.
As powerful figures in American politics, they know very well that, except for the biennial Congress, Congress will generally only convene emergency meetings when encountering major reform plans or major events.
And now that the president has asked Congress to convene a meeting, it is obvious that he wants to respond to the theft of the U.S. military weapons database.
"Is war coming?"
The heads of the FBI and CIA had such an idea in their minds almost at the same time. The idea emerged, and they looked at each other in tacit understanding.
At this moment, they both saw the answer in each other¡¯s eyes: Yes!
¡¡
In early October, autumn has arrived in Yanjing. Not only has the temperature dropped sharply, but it has also gotten dark earlier.
When Washington ushered in the morning, Yanjing City, which has a heritage unmatched by Washington, ushered in the night.
At night, the city of Yanjing is as brightly lit as ever. The leaves on both sides of the street are falling and drifting in the autumn wind. There is a coolness in the evening breeze, or a slight chill.
That chill comes from the weather, but also from the international situation in the past two days.
Since the United States revealed that Chinese spies had stolen the U.S. military¡¯s weapons database, the whole world has been in an uproar. Citizens around the world are paying attention to the development of the situation, especially the citizens of China and the United States.
?????????????? Many netizens have even published high-pitched opinions online, saying that this incident will become the trigger for the Third World War.
The war has not yet begun, but the smoke is already filling the air, making the people feel like a mountain of anxiety.
However¡ª¡ª
At this special time, Ye Shi, who had finished his work day and attended two meetings in a row, rarely stayed in his office villa. Instead, he took a car with a privileged license plate and police cars would clear the way wherever he went. By car, head to the old alley in Yanjing City whose threshold is second only to the Royal Garden.
After darkness completely enveloped the earth, the car with a privileged license plate safely drove into the alley and stopped in front of one of the courtyard houses.
There are many cars parked at the entrance of the yard. Most of those cars look a little shabby, but the license plates and passes placed at the corners of the windshield are more scary than the last.
Becausethe owners of those cars once had a lot of say in this republic, and an agreement they reached together could even affect the direction of this country.
Although they have retreated to the background and lost their influence in the public eye, they still have unparalleled influence within the system.
They were once the most powerful supporters of the Ye family, supporting the Ye family behind the scenes, and the Ye family rewarded them in front of the stage. Later because the Ye family was losing ground in the battle with Pei Donglai, they weakened their influence on the Ye family. With so much support, it only took a short time for the Ye family to be abandoned.
But now, after the international situation has undergone tremendous changes, they have gathered together again in the Ye Family Courtyard!
This may seem ironic, but it is the truest portrayal of this field - there are no eternal enemies and friends, only eternal interests!
Entering the villa and seeing the familiar faces, Ye Shi not only did not feel nervous because of the tense atmosphere of a war about to break out, but instead felt an indescribable sense of relief.
Yes!
It¡¯s a sense of pleasure!
Although he is still sitting firmly in that position, because of the existence of Pei Donglai and the four major families, he has not experienced this feeling for a long time!
¡°Dear senior leaders, I believe everyone is well aware of what happened in the past two days and the sudden change in the international situation, so I won¡¯t repeat it here.¡±
Entering the courtyard hall, after the life secretary filled the tea and exited the door, Ye Shi took a sip of tea and said seriously: "Similarly, I won't repeat the seriousness of this matter. I think all the old leaders know it better than me. Likewise. , you should know that such a serious thing happened, but some people have not expressed their position so far, and the relevant meeting has not even been held, but only let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs speak to deny it."
¡°You old leaders have devoted too much effort and made too many contributions to this country, and you don¡¯t want it to be destroyed in the hands of certain people. And I don¡¯t want to become a sinner of history!¡±
When Ye Shi said this, he suddenly raised his voice: "I think we should exchange opinions and come up with a feasible countermeasure!"
Facing Ye Shi¡¯s proposal, all the old men present had no objections - if they had any objections, they wouldn¡¯t be here.
Three hours later, this seemingly secret but not-so-secret meeting ended. After everyone, including Ye Shi, exchanged opinions, they finally reached an agreement on how to deal with the drastically changed international situation.
"Dad, is there any result from the meeting?"
After the meeting, Ye Shi received a call from Ye Jin. After the call was connected, Ye Jin asked straight to the point.
"Um."
A smile of success appeared on the corner of Ye Shi's mouth, and he said: "Once the United States reacts, I will propose the consensus reached tonight at the meeting - declaring that the theft of the US military weapons depot was the result of Pei Donglai's joint terrorist attack. The personal behavior of the terrorist organization has nothing to do with Ye Gucheng, let alone the country! In order to express our apology, we will cleanse Pei Donglai¡¯s forces in China and unconditionally assist the United States in fighting terrorism headed by Pei Donglai. ! In addition, the losses caused by the United States will be borne by Pei Donglai¡¯s Donghai Group!"
"Well¡¡"
Although he guessed that his father would use this opportunity to retaliate against Pei Donglai and let the Ye family rise again, Ye Jin did not expect that the attack would be so ruthless. He was shocked at the moment and became very excited later. Faintly worried, "Dad, do you think the United States and those people will agree to this plan?"
"The United States does not dare to have a real war with us. This plan is equivalent to giving them enough face and steps. They will compromise, at least on the surface."
Speaking of this, Ye Shi showed a cold smile, "As forthose people, hey, even if you give them a hundred courages, they don't dare to protect that evil species - the exposure of the matter means that the evil species has been completely Become an outcast and bear the infamy of a sinner!!"
