Chapter 172 Continued

The reporters who run the political line in the federal government often complain about themselves that they have a pig-like sense of smell and a dog-like sense of proportion. They know very well what kind of reports can be approved by the editorial department and even higher-level departments in the political atmosphere at different times, and what kind of reports can be easily attracted by the eyes, and ultimately they can only turn into wailing garbage data fragments in the workbench circuit.

Based on these two traits, they had no reason to discover the abnormal situation in the Capital Special Administrative Region last night. The field troops stationed in the suburbs actually entered the Charter Square. It is said to be an exercise, but who would believe it? Then they obtained some more sensational intelligence through their respective information channels, such as the security level of the federal government and Parliament Hill was once again increased. He heard that the FBI was launching a secret search operation, targeting the federal hero who had just returned from Xilin and had not been successfully intercepted by reporters...

All the reporters were panicked, excited, confused, and impulsive. They didn't know if these things could be pursued, and what shocking news events would be revealed if they kept chasing them. However, after a short period of psychological struggle, they still put on windbreakers and rushed out of the gates of major newspapers and TV stations, and rushed towards their destination.

The reporters in the news incident are like soldiers on the battlefield. If they smell the noise but do not continue to investigate, it is equivalent to soldiers who surrender without firing a gun. No matter what the final result of this battle is, no reporter can forgive himself for not raising the gun in his hand at that time.

Then the reporters found themselves running out and hit countless cold iron plates. No matter how good the relationship they had formed on weekdays, all departments of the federal government today closed the door for them, and no one accepted their interview.

The Ministry of Defense Building was heavily guarded, and the gendarmes with live ammunition guarded the gate, prohibiting anyone without a pass, even the Venus Star reporters with military background. The reporters were anxiously shouting the name of the spokesperson of the Ministry of Defense outside the cordon, asking loudly if the news of Minister Zou's temporary resignation was true. The answers were only dead silence and the complicated eyes of the officers in the building.

No one was interviewed at the Charter Square Management Office, and the silence of the parliamentary members on parliament Hill were collectively silent. The presidential residence even temporarily announced that the routine briefing that should have been held at 10 o'clock this morning was suspended for one day.

The reporters who had already put all their hopes on the official residence news briefing made extremely dissatisfied noises. They seemed like messy in the vegetable market, but in fact they cooperated very well and kept putting pressure on the spokesperson.

After the chaotic scene lasted for about a few minutes, the spokesperson of the President's residence bowed his head and said whispering to Director Bryn in the side gallery, walked back to the stage, looking at the journalists with expectations, and gave an explanation very stingy. This explanation is very simple, but it is quite unexpected, and it also caused countless rich and exciting imagination pictures to be produced in the hearts of the federal journalists.

The President has a serious cold and needs rest, so the news briefing will be suspended for one period.

The journalists in the field were silent collectively, bowed their heads and quickly recorded the spokesperson's statement on the light curtain of the workbench, and frowned and outlined various possibilities with electronic pens.

The reporters knew that they could never ask anything at the presidential residence again, and stood up and rushed to the next government department that might be captured.

This action lasted until the evening. The reporters took turns to fight between the buildings in the Capital Special Administrative Region and finally successfully blocked the Deputy Minister in front of the Ministry of Justice. According to the latest news they had, the official residence has authorized the Deputy Minister to give a brief explanation of what happened last night and until this morning.

"Yesterday, at 21:40, in response to the terrorist incident on Parliament Hill a few days ago, the federal military successfully conducted an anti-terrorism exercise code-named Deep Spring in the area around Charter Square. Through this exercise, various departments of the federal government strengthened the information exchange and matching between each other. In order to face similar terrorist attacks again, they practiced relevant plans and gained a lot of valuable experience."

How could the news of military exercises require the Ministry of Justice to announce it? The reporters were keenly aware of this and realized that the government should let go today. They continued to ask without hesitation: "Mr. Minister, we just want to know whether the federal government is wanting Colonel Xu Le? In addition, is Minister Zou Yingxing of the Ministry of Defense already asked to resign?"

"I will correct it first. Minister Zou did not resign. He just went to various strategic equipment bases of the federal government for inspection at the special request of Mr. President. Because of the upcoming summer operations in the empire, the strategic equipment of the federal government faces a difficult test, and the government needs an excellent general like Minister Zou to lead the work in full."

Of course, the journalists would not believe this statement, but since the official answer was given, all they needed to do was to interpret the answer. They took the electronic pen and quickly recorded it, waiting silently for the issue they and the federal people most concerned about.

"As for Colonel Xu Le." The Deputy Minister of Justice frowned and carefully said slowly: "Yes, from the legal process, we can say that he is being wanted by the federal government."

The Deputy Minister looked at the reporters and continued to explain: "Col. Xu Le left the Xilin District camp without permission without approval. The military asked him to explain the situation, but he had not reported it. In addition, according to the investigation of the Charter Bureau, there is a very close relationship between Col. Xu Le and the dead suspects of the terrorist attack on the Parliament Hill, but he has not reported it to his superiors for this."

"Is this the whole reason for wanting Colonel Xu Le?" a reporter asked sharply.

"No." The Deputy Minister of Justice replied calmly: "I think you all participated in that report at that time. The federal government had suspended the investigation into the relationship between Colonel Xu Le and the treasonist Yu Feng, but after the Charter Bureau grasped these latest situations, the Federal Central Computer activated the previous wanted procedure independently."

"This means that unless Colonel Xu Le voluntarily surrenders, the wanted will continue."

It was confirmed that the Federation was wanted by Xu Le, a federal hero idol who had just returned from the empire some time ago. The reporters in front of the Ministry of Justice building were also in a state of shock and silence. The twilight in the evening hit the end of the street, looking a bit bloody and husky.

"As for what happened at the presidential residence, I don't know, and you don't need to ask me." The Deputy Minister of Justice said with a smile: "But I believe that if Colonel Xu Le was brought to justice and the judicial process went to the point where the evidence was disclosed, then the entire federal government would know the truth of the incident."

The silent and dead stone steps are all over the place, with extensive knowledge and extensive experience, and the reporters with great experience are unable to suppress their inner emotions and express noisy shock and emotion!

There is no way they can write the words they hear in the report, but they can keenly hear the meaning hidden behind them. Could it be that the military operation last night and the poorly healthy Mr. President today have that terrible connection with Colonel Xu Le who is wanted?

Reporters Wood have been standing quietly outside the crowd. Today he was wearing a fake fur vest, and the cigarette roll in his hand seemed to be burning. He suddenly stretched out his hand.

With the position of Capital Region Daily and Wood in the industry, when he stretched out his hand, the reporters who were sinking into shock and discussion suddenly became quiet.

Wood frowned and took a deep breath of cigarettes, asking, "Mr. Deputy Minister, does this wanted... have something to do with Colonel Xu Le's press release yesterday afternoon?"

The Deputy Minister of Justice looked at him silently, with a cold look, and answered directly: "It doesn't matter."

...

...

The federal hero Colonel Xu Le became a wanted criminal. This news will probably cause countless shocking discussions in the federal society, and even more serious things. The journalists either ran around the record excitedly or thoughtfully, but they could not get close to the department they wanted to interview most because it was the federal army.

In the office of the new base of the New Seventeen Armored Division near the capital, there was an extremely depressing and tense atmosphere. The commander of the regiment, Here, squinted his eyes and stared at the director of the Special War Office of the First Military Region in front of him, without any intention of retreating. Although the other party had a military rank far higher than himself, although the other party had a military policeman with special power, and although the other party held the arrest document signed by the highest military commander in his hand, he still did not want to give in.

"I don't care what you guys want to do, but this is my army, those guys are my soldiers, and if you want to arrest them, you must go through my consent."

Colonel Here's eyes narrowed into two dangerous slits. Hua Xiaosi Lin Ai and others who stood behind him also narrowed their eyes at the same time. It was amazing. Perhaps every guy who had been with Xu Le for too long would be infected by his small movement. Whenever he encountered the greatest anger or the most terrifying danger, the men's eyes would squint, and the blink of an eyelid would angrily crush everything in his eyes to pieces.

The director of the Special War Room came with the arrest documents of the highest military, and he did not expect that he had not seen the members of the seventh group, and was stopped in the office by the officers of the 17th Division before he could see the members of the seventh group.

"Col. Hrey, do you understand what you are doing at this time?"
