Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 145 Tit for tat
Shanying leaned against the wall of the hospital corridor, watching Agent Kobe angrily enter the conference room...

Tessa, who was under a lot of pressure, took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Shanying, then lit up the cigarette and took a puff...

Watching Shanying pointing at the no-smoking sign in the hospital, Tessa shrugged and said, "The patients on this floor are all damn bastards. If nicotine can make their injuries worse, I'll keep smoking."

Shanying gave a thumbs up in admiration and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense..."

Tessa heard the noise in the conference room. He looked up at Shanying's profile and said, "How do you know those guys won't go with them?"

Shanying sneered and said, “If it were me, I would not leave after I knew someone was trying to silence me.

At least the Thai side will not do anything to them in order to find out the truth and save more abducted girls.

But it may not be the case after returning...

They themselves actually know that they are just small people.

If the big heads in the ICU don’t go back together, they’re likely to become scapegoats.”

As he spoke, Shanying looked at the two NCIS agents guarding the door of the conference room, and he smiled and said, “If that guy named Kobe wants to take them away, he must first prove that he is determined to protect their safety.

But to prove this point it is not enough to just talk, he has to find the assassin and the person behind him in order to make these soldiers believe him.

If he refuses to do anything and only thinks of forcing the soldiers to obey by exerting pressure, perhaps some of them will surrender to the Thai police and seek political asylum because of their "guilty conscience".

The endings of most tainted witnesses are not too bad compared to the punishment they deserve.

At least once they turn against us, the Americans will have more concerns about killing them..."

After hearing this, Tessa nodded slightly, then shook her head and said, "Do you think those soldiers can really think of so much?"

Shanying shook his head and laughed, "Why do you think I kept Geralt accompanying that unlucky guy?
People always have a higher degree of trust in those who saved their lives...

People always think more about themselves. When anyone feels confused and is offered a less bad choice, anyone will hesitate. What about these bastards who know they are doing something wrong?

Although we may not necessarily guide them to act according to our ideas, we can at least make them hesitate, or at least delay a little time.

And now, 'time' has completely different values for you and them!"

As he spoke, Shanying looked towards the door of the conference room...

Black Kobe walked out of the conference room with a gloomy face, waved his hand to reject a question from a British reporter, and then strode towards Tessa...

Shanying looked at the reporter who wanted to enter the conference room for an interview, but was rudely blocked outside by two NCIS agents. He smiled and said, "The bad thing now is that with this guy here, the 'media interrogation' strategy you set before will definitely not work.

But there is one good thing, that is, with the media around, they have to do their job impartially.”

As he spoke, Shanying tilted his head to glance at Tessa, who was full of fighting spirit, and whispered, "Don't go head-on with this guy...

Whatever this guy wants to do, as long as he doesn't want to get rid of those soldiers and the bastards in the ICU, you can agree to it...

I have informed Tagore that tomorrow another deputy director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau in charge of media relations will come to take over your job.

You go to the Pattaya branch and accept the surrender of the Prichenko group...

Getting all the benefits you can get is the real help to your family."

After hearing this, Tessa stared at Kobe, who was in high spirits. She nodded slightly and whispered, "I understand..."

Kobe had seen Tessa on TV, so when he heard the most bizarre "rejection" he had ever heard in his life in the conference room, the first thing he wanted to do was to talk to Tessa, the person in charge.

When Kobe walked in front of Tessa, he first looked at the Eagle, then stretched out his hand to Tessa and said, "Hello, ma'am. My name is Kobe, Kobe Andrews, a senior agent of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service of the United States. I think we need to talk..."

After perfunctorily shaking Kobe's hand, Tessa said, "If you want to talk to me about the U.S. military's involvement in human trafficking in Pattaya and the U.S. military's enslavement of Thai women in Bahrain, I'd be happy to talk to you.

That's what NCIS is supposed to do...

But if it’s something else, then I’m sorry, I’m busy…”

Kobe didn't mind Tessa's attitude. He retracted his right hand and said in a tough tone: "I have taken over this case, but before launching a formal investigation, I hope to bring these soldiers back to the US military base. From the legal perspective of both countries, this is an internal affair of the US military..."

Tessa lacked political acumen, but her professionalism was sufficient. Facing Kobe's somewhat arrogant attitude, she shook her head contemptuously and said, "Investigating cases of abduction and trafficking of Thai citizens is also the responsibility of the Thai Criminal Investigation Bureau.

And according to the law, when encountering cases involving the safety of citizens' lives, the Thai police have the right to summon American soldiers."

Kobe said expressionlessly and in a slightly provocative tone: “But you have no right to interrogate them, let alone the right to detain them.

All American soldiers are the property of the U.S. government, and the U.S. military always has the first priority in exercising authority for any problems that occur to them.

Any so-called investigation conclusion will not have legal effect until the military issues a final report..."

Shanying saw the fire in Tessa's eyes, he pulled the fiery policewoman and said to Kobe, "Sir, you should tell those reporters what you said, and then the public can judge whether it is correct.

Everyone in the hospital could testify that the Thai police did not conduct any kind of interrogation of the soldiers; they were just being interviewed.

And we don't restrict their freedom, you can take them all away, including those bastards lying in the intensive care unit.

I bet most Thais now feel it is wrong to waste medical and police resources on them to protect them from being persecuted by your own people.

Not only ordinary people, but most of the police in the hospital also felt so. Our people were shot in order to protect your soldiers, but no one thought he did the right thing.

As long as you can arrange professionals and sign the letter of responsibility, we can immediately remove the tubes from those bastards who are sucking blood from women..."

As he spoke, Shanying looked Kobe up and down in a suit, his eyes swept across the cross on Kobe's neck, and said with contempt, "I don't know how you can say what you just said without a trace of shame?

But it doesn't matter, we never expect others to do justice for us, especially those who have sold their conscience to the devil. "

Kobe comes from a devout Catholic family, and the Eagles easily broke his condescending attitude...

As a senior agent, Kobe's ability was qualified. After being silent for more than ten seconds, he looked deeply at Shanying, and then said to Tessa: "I think the police were involved in the assassination of the soldiers before, so I need to conduct a thorough investigation of all the police officers on duty in the hospital at that time..."

Shanying grabbed Tessa who was about to retort and said with a smile: "No problem, you are the Naval Criminal Investigation Service of the United States, you must first investigate the case of harming American naval soldiers.

You can use the conference room you just entered, and tomorrow detectives from the Criminal Investigation Bureau will assist you in the investigation.

But I want to remind you that it is not enough to just investigate those policemen. I believe that those soldiers are not worried about those corrupt policemen, but the people behind those policemen. "

Kobe didn't expect that his extremely provocative request for an investigation would end up like a punch hitting cotton, and in the end he was even outmaneuvered.

Not to mention that he wouldn't be able to find out anything while playing away from home, even if he finally found out the truth, the result might be even worse for him.

Now those soldiers with less serious injuries do not trust the American officials and are unwilling to leave the hospital. If they are not given an explanation on the issue of the killer, these people may say something even more devastating.

Kobe just wanted to provoke Tessa. First, to test the attitude of the police, and second, if the Thai side showed toughness and set obstacles for him, he could naturally pass the problem to the American top leaders.

Unfortunately, although Tessa was very angry, the guy next to her was too difficult to deal with...

Kobe glanced between Tessa and Shanying, and suddenly stretched out his hand to Shanying and said, "Can I know your name and position?"

Shanying shook hands with Kobe and said with a smile: "Yueshan, Thai police, the rest is my privacy..."

Kobe held Shanying's hand and stared into his eyes, saying in a deep voice: "An insider told us that the assassins might be some extreme nationalists in Thailand. They assassinated those soldiers because they believed the false reports..."

Shanying sneered and said, "An insider revealed to us that the entire assassination was planned by the CIA. They bribed the police inside the hospital and arranged for assassins to enter the hospital to silence those soldiers.

Under the tremendous pressure of hospital security, the killer knew that he could not complete the mission so he decisively chose to escape.

Because of the strict blockade, the killer, who had nowhere to escape, was ready to surrender to the police, but he did not expect that there were also corrupt policemen bribed by the CIA outside, which led to the riot a few hours ago. "

Shanying looked at Kobe, who looked unhappy, and sneered, "Oh, the same insider told us...

Agent Kobe Andrews is a whore-born homosexual who climbed his way to a senior NCIS agent position by selling out his black ass.

The only reason he's here is to silence those soldiers so the CIA can kill them."
