late at night.
Su Tianyu and his party arrived at Manchester Airport. The person who came to greet them was the head of Longcheng Continental’s diplomatic department, whose surname was Huang.
After the two sides shook hands, they quickly left the airport hall and rushed to the state diplomatic headquarters.
On the way, Minister Huang said to Su Tianyu very politely: "During your business trip to District 2, you will be under the strictest protection of our diplomatic department. But... if there are some emergencies that are not within the jurisdiction of our department, it may be difficult for us to handle them. You know that our department is a subordinate department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of District 1, and there are some things that we do not have independent authority to handle."
Minister Huang's words were very tactful, but his meaning was very clear.
Simply put, Longcheng is not a large district, and its diplomatic authority is lower than that of District 1. If Su Tianyu does not cause trouble here, then no one can touch him. However, if the National Bureau of Investigation and Statistics makes a big move, violates the laws of District 2, and makes the matter public, then Old Huang will have no way to deal with it.
Su Tianyu could understand this kind of rhetoric, and he nodded politely: "Minister Huang, we are sorry to trouble you. Don't worry, the matter here will not affect the position of our diplomatic department, and we will not do anything wrong."
"That's good, that's good." Minister Huang nodded: "Our colleagues in the diplomatic department have prepared a simple reception dinner. What do you think...?"
"I have a lot of things to do, so forget about the dinner." Su Tianyu waved his hand: "I'll deal with Director Lu's matter first."
"Okay, then let's go back to the office?" Old Huang asked tentatively.
"Yes!" Su Tianyu nodded.
…
About forty minutes later.
Su Tianyu and others arrived at the Longcheng State Foreign Affairs Department, and Minister Huang personally arranged accommodation and meeting rooms for them.
"Thank you for your hard work." Su Tianyu said, stretching out his hand.
"It's my job." Minister Huang smiled and shook hands with Su Tianyu, saying, "Then I will prepare the wording tonight and file a complaint with the diplomatic department of District 2 tomorrow and express our position."
"Yes, as long as you put pressure on us." Su Tianyu immediately replied, "You can also contact the contact person in District 2 in the evening and tell them directly that our attitude is that Director Lu cannot be sentenced here. If they insist on their own way, we will definitely fight back through various countermeasures, the most important of which is to stop the opening of the Bana City Canal to District 2."
"I understand." Minister Huang nodded.
"Okay, that's it, you should go to bed early."
"good!"
After a few pleasantries, Minister Huang left with the people from the diplomatic department.
Inside the room, Lao Hei carefully checked the furniture and furnishings, then turned to Su Tianyu and said, "There is no monitoring equipment."
"Yeah!" Su Tianyu bent down and sat down: "Did Gu Baishun respond?"
"Yes." Lao Hei stood aside and took out his phone and handed it to Su Tianyu: "There are several B-level dormant agents at home, and two of them have already got some information."
Su Tianyu took the phone and started watching.
"Also, we have an agent codenamed Pangolin, who was exposed while gathering information. He was originally going to be arrested, but at the critical moment, he was rescued by another group of unknown people. The other party claimed to be your old friend, and said that you owed them a favor in this matter." Lao Hei added.
"Old friend?!" Su Tianyu frowned and raised his head: "What else did you say?"
"Just this one sentence." Lao Hei was also puzzled: "Who could it be? Could it be from the Chinese district?"
Su Tianyu paused and said, "Since they are the agents who saved us, they should have no ill intentions for now. Let's ignore this group of people for now and focus on saving Brother Feng."
"I think the diplomatic department of District 2 and the Sixth Division are stalling for time." Lao Hei agreed: "They must want to consolidate the evidence as quickly as possible, not giving us a chance to negotiate, and directly arrest and sentence us."
"Don't make any noise, I'm going to make a phone call."
Su Tianyu frowned and replied, holding Lao Hei's phone in his left hand, and dialing a number with a new phone in his right hand.
Ten seconds later, the call was connected: "Hello, Liuzi!"
"Brother, help me follow up a clue." Su Tianyu looked at Lao Hei's phone and read the intelligence collected by Gu Baishun softly: "In the Sixth Intelligence Department, the Second Action Team, there is a team leader named Richard. He should be responsible for connecting with the Central Bureau of District 1. You can contact him, he may know the inside story."
"Is the information accurate?" the other party asked.
"It should be accurate. It's what our dormant agents found out." Su Tianyu looked down at his watch and said, "We'd better get accurate information about Brother Feng before dawn. Otherwise, if we delay for another day, things might change."
"Okay, I understand. Just wait for me to believe it."
"Okay, that's it!"
The two ended the call, and Su Tianyu walked to the window with his phone in hand: "Damn it, I thought it was Kang Dinghuang, but it turned out to be those bastards from the Central Bureau!"
"We were moving too fast to recruit Chinese social groups," Hou Guoyu said, sitting on a sofa. "They are getting a little impatient."
"Yeah!" Su Tianyu looked out the window and nodded.
…
It was a little after one in the morning.
On a street in Manchester, Yao Doudou, who had not been seen for a long time, chewed betel nut, handed the phone to the driver and said, "Go here."
"Okay!" the driver responded.
As soon as the words were spoken, two cars rushed towards the outskirts of the city.
Yao Doudou joined the National Bureau of Statistics more than a year ago. To be precise, she was morally kidnapped by Gou Liuzi.
During that period, Gou Liuzi was in urgent need of expanding the elite members of the action team, so he kept calling Yao Doudou and harassing him. Every time he called him, he complained like a crybaby and insisted on dragging Yao Doudou, a tough warrior, to join him in the great cause.
Yao Doudou was finally forced into no choice but to agree to Su Tianyu's invitation, but his request was that the people he brought with him should not work in Longcheng, but should be active outside.
Over the past year, Yao Doudou's team has hardly taken any private work, because they are afraid that something might happen to them and implicate the National Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, so they have become official fighters with fixed funding, and have secretly helped Su Tianyu solve problems.
About half an hour later, the two cars stopped at the edge of a block.
Yao Doudou glanced around and led the team out of the car: "As usual, Xibao will step on the outside, and the others will go in with me. It's quieter at night, so don't shoot unless it's necessary."
"clear!"
"Um!"
Everyone nodded and dispersed tacitly.
…
at the same time.
An airplane landed in the planned area around District 2. A group of men in military uniforms surrounded a man and walked down from the military transport plane.
