Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1516: How Are You Going To Thank Me

Gu Nianzhi couldn’t recover from her shock.

How did Bai Shuang get involved in a political affair here?!

“Lawyer Gu, what do you think we should do?” Bai Shuang looked at Gu Nianzhi. Her hand clenched into a fist.

Gu Nianzhi’s mind raced. She frowned and asked, “... How did you know about the secret kill order from the CIA?”

Bai Shuang looked at the pale Dresden beside her and whispered, “... His colleagues at the US Department of Homeland Security secretly told him...”

Gu Nianzhi:”...”

So there was an “accomplice”.

However, it was indeed very difficult for him to escape from the Americans on his own. Someone from the inside must have tipped him off.

Gu Nianzhi thought about it for a moment and said, “I’m afraid this isn’t a small matter. Does your boss know?”

Bai Shuang shook her head and said nervously, “I don’t know. Mr. Dresden said that he just randomly searched for English interpreters on the internet and found our company to place an order. Our company sent me here.”

In order to not attract attention, Dresden deliberately picked a very small translation company and didn’t look for large, well-known translation companies.

It was also because of this that Bai Shuang’s small company was chosen.

Gu Nianzhi could only whisper, “Then why don’t you tell your boss first, and then... let your boss handle it?”

What she meant was that it was better for Bai Shuang not to get involved in such a big matter.

This was already an international affair. Even if Bai Shuang’s boss came, he wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Was the CIA an ordinary agency?

Although Gu Nianzhi had never been in contact with the CIA here, she knew that the CIA was probably the most powerful intelligence agency in the world.

After the Cold War, the entire world was filled with bloodshed. International Wars and disputes were almost entirely backed by the CIA.

Bai Shuang understood what Gu Nianzhi meant. She hesitated for a moment, but shook her head. “Lawyer Gu, since he’s my client, I have a certain responsibility to him. I can’t just abandon him like this.”

Although she was afraid, she didn’t back down.

Gu Nianzhi was a little dazed when she saw Bai Shuang like this.

It was as if she was seeing Bai Shuang again, the one who had sacrificed herself to atone for her father’s sins.

Gu Nianzhi did not want Bai Shuang to stay out of this anymore. Her mind raced as she tried to think of a way to resolve this matter.

At the same time, in the dark night sky outside, four men in black suits were hanging down from the gleaming glass of the Four Seasons Hotel building.

They had thick ropes tied to their bodies and were being lowered inch by inch from the roof of the building.

Their target was in a guest room, not far below their feet, that had lights on and curtains drawn.

They wore infrared night vision glasses and weren’t afraid of the darkness. They could even see through the walls the figures in the room that were emitting heat radiation.

Everyone also had Bluetooth headsets with wireless communication functions in their ears.

The street lights on this side of the hotel building had been turned off by them. The moonlight couldn’t illuminate this corner. Even if someone looked from the Victoria Bay, it was still dark and they couldn’t see their figures at all.

Soon, they landed on the outer layer of the building where Dresden was staying.

Through the infrared night vision glasses, they could clearly see the situation in the room.

There were actually four people in the room.

Two of them sat in a row facing each other on the sofa in the room.

Although the curtains were drawn and the windows were closed, it wasn’t a hindrance to the four well-equipped men in black.

“... Action.”

The leader of the four men in black quietly gave the order through the Bluetooth headset.

At that moment, Lu Jin, who was sitting in the room facing the window, suddenly said coldly, “Someone’s coming. Get down!”

As he spoke, he rolled off the sofa with Gu Nianzhi in his arms and his entire body covering her from head to toe like a shield, he laid on the ground.

Dresden, who was sitting across from him, laid on the floor even faster than Lu Jin. With a dash, he fell from the sofa onto the floor, and trembled as he leaned against the edge of the sofa.

Bai Shuang was the last to fall. She didn’t even have the chance to ask the question.

The sound of gunshots rang out and shattered the windows of the room while riddling the curtains with holes.

Glass shards, accompanied by the sparks of bullets, flew everywhere in the room and ignited the dark night sky.

The lights in the room were turned off, and it was pitch black inside and outside the room.

Just as these people were about to break into the room through the window, Lu Jin activated the pulse interference function of the electromagnetic jammer in his pocket.

This small instrument could interfere with all wireless communication devices.

Just as the four men in black were about to rush in through the window, they felt an unbearable pain in their ears.

A burst of pulsing energy from the Bluetooth headset was enough to pierce the eardrum.

“Ahhh!”

“Ahhh!”

“Ahhh!”

“Ahhh!”

The four of them covered their ears and screamed almost simultaneously.

They lost their balance in an instant. Their bodies were suspended in the air by ropes, and they had no hands or feet to fix their direction.

Tightly protected by Lu Jin, Gu Nianzhi laid on the ground.

She opened her eyes. Through the shattered window, she saw several strong figures passing through the window. One of them was holding a man in black who was swaying in the air. In the darkness, a knife flashed, and the man’s throat was slit.

One of the figures looked so familiar that Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help but widen her eyes.

Wasn’t that he zhichu?

Why was he here? !

Outside the building that was dozens of stories tall, He Zhichu and his men took advantage of the situation and charged out. On the smooth surface of the glass, they moved as if they were walking on flat ground. They were as fierce as spider-men.

In the blink of an eye, the four men in black were killed. He Zhichu tilted his head slightly. “Take the bodies of the four traitors and put them outside the U.S. liaison office in H City.”

These four men in black were Chinese, but they were working for the CIA’s office in H City. They were their peripheral agents, not official CIA agents, but “temporary workers”.

He Zhichu ordered them to place the bodies of these peripheral agents outside the CIA’s office in H City. It was a blatant deterrence, both for the CIA and the Soviets.

Their actions were clean and efficient. They took advantage of the tide and went with the flow.

If it hadn’t been for the fact that the windows of the hotel room had been shattered by bullets, it would have been impossible to tell what had happened here.

Gu Nianzhi and the others laid on the ground for a while. When they saw that there was no more movement outside, they climbed up in fear.

Looking at the glass shards and bullet holes on the wall, Dresden cried, “They are coming! They are coming!”

Bai Shuang calmed down and comforted Dresden, She quickly said to Gu Nianzhi, “Our original intention was to get lawyer Gu to represent Mr. Dresden and go against the US Department of Justice in court. But looking at the stance of the Americans, they don’t want to let him live at all.”

“Go against the US Department of Justice in court?!” Gu Nianzhi dusted off her clothes and helped Lu Jin stand up. She was very confused. “As far as I know, Mr. Dresden was in the wrong, right?”

This was equivalent to a company employee stealing the company’s trade secrets. It was illegal everywhere.

Bai Shuang was stunned. She turned to ask Dresden, “... What information did you bring? If it’s really illegal...”

Dresden was still in shock. He jumped up like a frightened rabbit and shouted, “I didn’t do anything illegal! They committed the crime! — Do you know what it is Prism?”

Gu Nianzhi was shocked.

Lu Jin immediately stood in front of her and said to Dresden in English in dissatisfaction, “Shut up! You scared ladies.”

Bai Shuang quickly persuaded Dresden in a low voice. Dresden took a few deep breaths and calmed down. He apologized to Gu Nianzhi and nodded to Lu Jin to show that he was reconciled.

Gu Nianzhi quickly said, “We can’t stay here for the time being. Go to my room first and tell me what’s going on. Otherwise, I don’t know how I can help you guys.”

Dresden immediately rushed to the room inside and came out with his backpack. He actively responded to Gu Nianzhi’s call.

Bai Shuang and Dresden went out first, while Lu Jin quietly asked Gu Nianzhi, “... You really want to help them? What’s your relationship with them?”

Gu Nianzhi didn’t know how to explain.

She said vaguely, “Bai Shuang and I are good friends. I can’t just stand by and do nothing when she’s in trouble.”

Lu Jin obviously didn’t quite understand Gu Nianzhi’s actions, but he didn’t object. He only reminded her, “This isn’t something you and I can get involved in. You have to be careful.”

Gu Nianzhi nodded. She was very grateful that Lu Jin had risked his life to save her. She quickly said, “Mr. Lu, thank you so much for saving me. If it weren’t for you...”

She probably would have been injured.

She probably wouldn’t have died because she had seen He Zhichu.

He Zhichu and the others were obviously also surveilling the men in black.

Lu Jin interrupted her and said calmly, “How are you going to thank me for saving you?”

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

Did she say she would thank him yet?

But she should thank Lu Jin.

“How do you want me to thank you?” Gu Nianzhi walked out of Dresden’s room with him and took out her phone to inform the front desk to call the police.

The smile on his face faintly discernible, Lu Jin put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked to Gu Nianzhi’s side.

He walked a few steps before suddenly stopping and saying, “I want to go to Disneyland here. Can you stay a few more days to accompany me to Disneyland?”

He looked at Gu Nianzhi intently with a nervous expression, as if he was afraid that she would reject him.

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes lit up and she smiled. “Okay, okay! I want to go to Disneyland too! Let’s go together!”
