Chapter 871: Unexpected Trouble


Translator: _Min_ Editor: Rundi


However, when Giannini prepared to discuss some business matters with Jiang Chen, the party was suddenly interrupted by a rude knocking sound.


The melodious music in the hall stopped and two men in suits came in, and their expression was clearly unfriendly.


The original lively party suddenly quieted down.


Seeing the people that came in, Governor Brown frowned and walked toward the two men in suits. Jiang Chen noticed that behind the two men, Lawrence also followed them, and he was clearly displeased.


Although he was unhappy, Brown in a gentle tone asked, “What’s wrong, Mr. Steven, this is my party. All the invited guests are law-abiding citizens. Or is the terrorist attack from the morning parade in front of the bridge causing you a headache so that you want to have a drink or two at my place.”


“Law-abiding? Is that right?” The man known as Steven scoffed coldly as he gazed at the governor’s mansion’s hall with a hawk-like look. He then locked onto Jiang Chen, and his eyes began to narrow. “You are Jiang Chen?”


The organization of the intelligence department was somewhat unique. CIB and FBA both directly served the National Security Council of the UA. The chairman of the National Security Council was also served by the current UA president, so the CIB possessed a strong national sense of pride and acted completely independent of the state government.


It was precisely for this reason that Steven could care less about this governor.


“Yes, what’s the matter?” Jiang Chen said pleasantly while putting his gla.s.s aside.


“Our agents discovered something interesting in Ukraine. As you know, the Russians have been doing little tricks there recently, or to put it more straightforward, it is an illegal invasion. According to Ukrainian government soldiers, the Russian soldiers who disguised themselves as militants use a weapon that can paralyze electronic devices.”


“I’m sorry; I don’t understand what you said,” Jiang Chen said with a smile.


He noticed that Zhu Yu, in a brown suit, was already standing by the door with her hand in her pocket.


Of course, she wasn’t trying to draw a gun, but if this Mr. Steven made an offensive move, there were a hundred ways the Ghost Agent could lay him on the ground.


“Is it true? I think your company is an expert in EMP weapons. It should be very clear what this means.” Steven sneered.


The guests attending the banquet all looked in their direction with interest.


Jiang Chen sighed and helplessly shrugged.


“Only relying on the EMP feature to determine that the weapons are coming from the hands of Future Group, isn’t this too arbitrary? What about the Ukrainian militants and government forces who are armed with M4 rifles? Or are they actually special forces sent by the UA?”


Steven’s tone began to sound threatening. “I hope you bring a cooperative att.i.tude. I’m not kidding with you.”


“So, what are you going to do to get me to cooperate, for someone who is not a UA citizen?” Jiang Chen shrugged and said with a careless smile.


At this point, the tension had already escalated to its peak.


Brown was annoyed. He didn’t care if there was an EMP in a Ukrainian town tens of thousands of kilometers away. He only cared about how many dollars he could bring to Cali and how many jobs he could create.


It was no exaggeration to say that as long as Jiang Chen and anyone there made a deal, it would give him great help in the next governor election.


However, it was a pity that this party went down the drain.


As he prepared to speak, Lawrence, who had been standing in the doorway, spoke first. With his colleague belonging to different departments, he used a rare aggressive tone.


“Enough, Mr. Steven. Jiang Chen is a guest of the Capital, not your suspect. Everything has to be done according to procedures. If there is no procedure, why do we need the Capital and Const.i.tution?”


Steven then said word by word, “In the interest of national security, there is a special case for everything. And I’m not interrogating. I just hope he can cooperate with the investigation.”


Lawrence stared at him and said without hesitation. “But the FBA is responsible for his safety. If you don’t understand the word national security, then ask your boss. At least receive permission first.”


Lawrence sealed Steven’s mouth.


As he suspected, Steven’s action was unauthorized.


However, even within the FBA, Jiang Chen’s security level was strictly confidential information. It was understandable that Steven, who had no knowledge of the situation, would be unaware. After all, he was a.s.signed as a commissioner on Ukrainian affairs. When he learned that Jiang Chen, who might be involved in the matter, would visit Los Santos, he flew from the Capital right away.


He didn’t even ask his boss.


“Ah, Mr. Steven, say h.e.l.lo to Mr. Naomi for me.” Giannini gently coughed.


Jiang Chen noticed that Steven’s shoulders turned stiff all of a sudden.


Naomi was likely his top boss. Judging from his rude demeanor to Lawrence, his rank was at least a rank above an agent in CIB. In this case, Mr. Naomi should be the director or deputy director.


It seemed that the strength of the Cali Consortium really cannot be underestimated.


In the end, under the pressure by the countless stares, Steven gestured to the a.s.sistant next to him and chose to leave for now.


However, before he left, he left a sentence. “I will find evidence.”


[Evidence?]


Jiang Chen almost laughed out loud.


[What if he collected evidence?]


[Can the UA give him a sentence?]


[The agent is probably the kind of “newcomer” who got promoted too fast and is eager to do something to prove his worthiness in his new position. However, such thoughts are often quite dangerous, especially for people who work in dangerous industries.]


In contrast, Lawrence, the old fox, would never make such frivolity.


Jiang Chen didn’t think Mr. Steven could cause him any trouble. He looked at him with a smile. “Please.”


“I’m sorry for this small interruption,” Brown walked to Jiang Chen with a gla.s.s of champagne and said in an apologetic tone.


“No worries, I can pretend that it was a great standup comedy.” Jiang Chen laughed.


Surrounded by friendly laughter, Zhu Yu nodded to Jiang Chen and withdrew from the hall after Lawrence left and closed the door of the hall. The melodious music continued again.


However, after the interruption, everyone’s interest was reduced to the minimum. Even though the Governor was very good at communication, he used all his effort to barely manage to keep the party going to the end. Because of the sudden visit by the CIB, the well-planned party was completely ruined.


Not only was the governor irritated, but so was Andi Giannini.


The CIB people not only ruined his mood but also ruined his business.


Originally intending to discuss cooperation with Jiang Chen, he swallowed everything back down.


After such an unpleasant event, who would still have the mood to discuss business?


However, Giannini did not mind too much. After all, Jiang Chen was staying in Los Santos for a while. He still had many opportunities.
