This is the FBI winter training camp located in the northern hemisphere of S1. There are large flakes of snow outside the window. People can stand in the warm room and enjoy the ice crystal world caused by the cold outside.
It has only been a day since Xu Le was summoned by the FBI to investigate. He was holding hot coffee, but he was already tired of seeing those winter snows. The other party temporarily prevented him from seeing a lawyer through legal procedures. When he showed up, the whole thing was a little weird.
Those who are being investigated by him will one day detect some movement, and they will definitely make fierce counterattacks, but Xu Le did not expect the other party's counterattack to come so quickly and so inexplicably, unless the other party really catches his own most. Something to be afraid of, otherwise this investigation from the FBI could only be a joke.
However, even if the other party really grasps his biggest grip, Xu Le probably won't be too surprised. After all, as the director of the fourth department of the general department said, there is no perfect lie in the world. Don't talk about Feng Yu and himself, Even the federal central computer can't do it, not to mention that the old man of the army and Mrs. Tai have long known their identities, so this so-called secret will no longer be a secret one day.
Back in Donglin, Colonel Lake, who was wearing sunglasses, also saw his true face.
Xu Le looked at the white snow outside the window, squinted and thought a lot. At that time, he didn't know who was watching him behind the mirror, but he was ready in his heart. Maybe in the eyes of many people, this was the biggest crisis he faced. , but for him who fled in the empire for a year, this kind of difficulty is really not worth mentioning.
So when he saw Xiao Qiang who he hadn't seen for many years, Wei Wei accepted the current situation with a start, smiled and looked at the Qingzhi face he remembered. He didn't say hi, just long time no see.
It seems that they are still the two orphans hanging out on Donglin Street. One went to the other's house to eat, and the other watched the other kill in the rainy night. In short, they used to hang out together. It's just a long time no see. It seems that Xiaoqiang in the middle has not gone. He had lived in the office for a year, and Xu Le had not experienced those bizarre and exciting lives.
It's a pity that the FBI would not give Xu Le any chance to sigh with emotion. The director of the fourth division looked at the picture with a bit of astonishment. He probably didn't even think that Xu Le actually recognized something like this.
"From a federal hero to a wanted criminal, I don't know if you can bear such a gap."
Sending those people who were summoned from Donglin to rest, the director of the fourth division of the FBI stood by the window in silence for a long time, lit a cigarette and took a few deep breaths, holding his forehead, with endless breath. Satisfied, said: "I only worry that the people of the Federation will not be able to bear it for a while."
"I don't understand what you're talking about." Xu Le squinted slightly, staring at the cold coffee in the cup, wondering what he was thinking.
"You've already admitted it." The director of the fourth division of the General Manager rushed to him angrily and shouted: "You are Xu Le, an orphan of Donglin! Not the identity you faked!"
"I haven't admitted anything." Xu Le looked at him and said calmly, "I am who I am, and I don't understand the purpose of your ridiculous investigation."
"What you need most right now is a tough mouth." The director of the fourth division of the General Office was startled for a moment, then forcefully untied his sweat-soaked tie, and said with laughter mixed in his breath, "But I hope the court will believe your ridiculous remarks. "
Not far from Charter Square, there is a quiet street with green grass and green grass. On the side of the slightly undulating green hill is the gray and white presidential residence, and on the opposite side is an independent building. This building has no special purpose. When the President needs to convene a larger meeting, he often chooses to hold it on the third floor of this building.
"Doesn't anyone think this is a ridiculous show? How could Xu Le be a wanted criminal! Then how did he scan through the brilliance of the charter? Orphans of Donglin? I think this is a conspiracy made by some people! "
In the quiet conference room, General Miles, who will retire in a few days, waved his arms angrily. Although he was about to resign from the two heavy positions of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Commander of the First Military Region, as a near The most powerful boss of the federal military in the past ten years, no one dared to resist his rage head-on.
This is a special closed-door hearing, saying that the hearing may not be very appropriate, because there is no judicial process involved, just because Xu Le is accused, so the top officials of the FBI and the Department of Justice, all Don't dare to make a rash decision, and put this matter in front of the real big man.
"What did the Charter Bureau say? If Colonel Xu Le concealed the identity of the wanted criminal, how did he do it? And the most crucial point, since the FBI insisted that Colonel Xu Le was... Citizenship Number For the Donglin orphan of DLAS420500481X, what is the conclusion drawn by the Federal Central Computer? No one can fool around this point."
"The Charter Bureau... declined to provide any comment on the matter."
The director of the FBI glanced nervously at the president and a group of ministers at the forefront, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "According to Director Tai's electronic receipt, the reason he gave is... Colonel Xu Le has the authority, The Charter Bureau is prohibited from conducting internal scrutiny of him."
Sitting in the second row, Cui Judong suddenly broke the silence and said, "The central computer can only confirm the chip in Colonel Xu Le's body now, and it has nothing to do with the Donglin orphan."
Hearing this sentence, especially knowing the clear attitude of the Charter Bureau, the big figures who participated in this special closed-door hearing fell into silence at the same time, because they had no reason to question the judgment of the Federal Central Computer, but why... FBI There will be so much evidence against Xu Le, especially those on Bell Tower Street, why do they insist that the current federal hero Xu Le is the orphan Xu Le of the past
Deputy Speaker Zion frowned, looking at the plastic photos in front of him, looking at the youthful faces in those photos, looking for a place similar to the current Colonel Xu Le, he couldn't help shaking. He shook his head and said nothing.
Up to this moment, everyone, including Cui Judong, still insisted that it was the super-high authority granted to Xu Le by the Federal Central Computer, which helped him to conceal his identity very well in the capital star circle, but never thought that he had replaced the back of his neck. chips, because that goes beyond their basic view of the world.
President Pabble looked at the photo carefully and asked: "I am very disgusted with this kind of internal investigation. If you think Colonel Xu Le is a wanted criminal, you should go directly through the Department of Justice or the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Defense to go through the process, and It shouldn't be to toss with this specious evidence to the hearing."
Mr. President's tone was calm, but it fell into the ears of the FBI director and many interested people, but with obvious anger.
"We received a real-name report and had to investigate. As for the Ministry of Justice... Mr. President, Colonel Xu Le has won two highest medals and has relevant immunity. If he enters the judicial process, he must be deprived of his immunity by you or the parliament. right."
"Report with real name?"
"Yes, Mr. President."
The National Security Advisor, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly replied with a smile: "There is a Xilin officer who went to the Donglin Region in person and participated in the military operation to capture the traitor Feng Yu. He recognized it in the Supreme Court some time ago. Colonel Xu Le, for the safety of the Federation, this brave Xilin officer did not hesitate to risk the hostility and danger of the public to stand up and testify with his real name."
The door of the conference room was slowly pushed open, and Colonel Lake walked in. The subordinate Zhong Hu most trusted, the commander of the special mecha of the Xilin Military Region, took off the pair of sunglasses and looked indifferent.
After the simplest self-introduction, Colonel Lake paused for a while, put his hands behind his back, and began to describe the military operation many years ago to the big people in the room. He and his team took the ancient bell to Donglin with the goal of Arrest or kill the most wanted federal criminal Feng Yu, and then he meets a very stubborn teenager on the street.
"How do you confirm that the boy is the current Colonel Xu Le?" someone in the room questioned.
"If I admit I'm wrong, I'd rather have my eyes gouged out." Colonel Lake replied calmly: "It's not easy for someone like Colonel Xu Le to admit mistakes."
"As far as I know, Xu Le and you Xilin have always had a good relationship, so I'm very curious, why... you came forward to report with your real name." Admiral Miles asked indifferently.
Colonel Lake saluted with a snap, and replied in a deep voice, "Report to General, I am a soldier, and I must put the interests of the Federation at the forefront."
Admiral Miles laughed at himself, waved his hands in disgust, and said, "I don't believe this kind of nonsense. But I don't have anything to ask."
President Pabble raised his head and slowly looked around the people in the conference room. When his eyes fell on Vice President Byron on the remote light curtain, he paused for a moment.
According to the relevant federal security regulations, during the war, the federal president and the vice president must be separated by a sufficient safety distance. During today's sudden closed-door hearing, Vice President Byron, as always, never made a statement easily. opinion, but his silence today makes many people who have already guessed something feel a little cold.
After some questioning of Colonel Lake, the internal hearing temporarily came to an end. Mr. Mays, a senior member of the Federal Management Committee, looked at President Pabble and said sharply: "Mr. President, I think Colonel Xu Le's immunity is exempted. His powers should be removed immediately, and he must receive a full and fair trial, and given the relationship between Colonel Xu Le and the military, I recommend that the Ministry of Justice be solely responsible for this case.”
Speaking of this, Congressman Mays glanced at Defense Minister Zou Yingxing, who had never spoken from the beginning to the end, with a hint of mockery, and asked, "What's Minister Zou's opinion?"
Zou Yingxing took off his thin metal-rimmed glasses and lightly rubbed his eyebrows. He did not answer the congressman's provocation, but leaned into Mr. President's ear and said something softly.
