Chapter 1009 - 1006: The Queen Wants to Intervene
"This can't be your reason for murder, can it?" Omama's face began to turn somewhat grim.
"Haha," Lin Chuan laughed, and said, "You Americans don't need a reason to kill; this is well known to people around the world, Mr. President. I will not accept any of your conditions, so don't waste your breath."
Omama's face turned extremely unpleasant, his expression becoming very angry. However, he still suppressed his anger, saying, "Mr. Lin, we consider you a friend, hence we are discussing this with you, and as long as you join us, we will agree to all your conditions."
Lin Chuan's eyes flashed as he said, "Is that so? If I ask you to withdraw troops from other countries right away, will you agree to that?"
The United States is the world's leading power, and it is impossible for it to agree to Lin Chuan's unreasonable condition to maintain its global interests.
Indeed, Omama's face turned blue with anger, and he snorted coldly.
The atmosphere immediately became somewhat tense.
Everson hurriedly said, "Mr. President, Mr. Lin, let's talk this over properly."
Lin Chuan also stood up at this moment and said expressionlessly, "I don't think there's anything more to say between me and the President; better take me directly to prison."
Everson looked at Omama, whose face was grim, and said nothing, only waving his hand.
Two agents came over and handcuffed Lin Chuan, taking him to a Washington prison.
After Lin Chuan left, Omama, furious, yelled at Everson, "This Lin Chuan is too presumptuous, and also too terrifying. Since he is unwilling to join us, then the only option is to send him to the military tribunal."
Sending him to the military tribunal meant Lin Chuan had to die.
Everson said worriedly, "Mr. President, if we send Lin Chuan to the military tribunal, how will we account to the various factions?"
Omama waved his right hand and said, "I've told you before, we Americans don't need to justify our actions to them, nor do we need to account to them."
British monarchy.
Engles looked respectfully at Queen Elizabeth.
"You're saying the Americans want to send Lin Chuan to the military tribunal, and it won't be a public trial. Is this information reliable?" The Queen looked at Engles and said.
Engles nodded and said, "Absolutely reliable, it has been confirmed. It was ordered personally by U.S. President Omama."
The Queen pondered and said, "If that's the case, it seems the Americans truly want Lin Chuan dead; no, I can't let Lin Chuan just die like that. You must immediately notify the embassy in the U.S., tell them to inform Omama that I will go to Washington the day after tomorrow in a personal capacity and want to meet him."
"This, this is a bit inappropriate," Engles said.
The Queen gave Engles a glance and said, "What's inappropriate about it? Lin Chuan saved my life once; we must save him. In doing so, naturally, Lin Chuan will be grateful to us, and we'll seize this opportunity to have him join our British Empire."
The value of obtaining Lin Chuan was evident, Engles understood the Queen's intention, nodded, and went to handle the relevant matters.
Beijing, the weather today was nice, sunny, without the usual haze of gray.
Li Xiangguo hurriedly walked into the residence of the veteran General Chen Zhenguo.
"Old chief, I've got some bad news for you." Upon entering, seeing the veteran general sitting on the sofa sipping tea, Li Xiangguo anxiously said, "The Americans are going to act against Lin Chuan; they want to send Lin Chuan to the military tribunal, and it won't be a public trial."
The veteran general immediately stood up from the sofa, his gaze appeared very stern, "What are the Americans up to; are they truly aiming to let Lin Chuan die?"
Li Xiangguo said with a bitter smile, "I fear so, it was personally ordered by U.S. President Omama."
"Does the Chairman know about this situation?" The veteran general looked at Li Xiangguo and asked.
Li Xiangguo shook his head and said, "I just got the news, and came to inform you first; the Chairman doesn't know yet."
"Let's go, I'll go with you to see the Chairman." The veteran general said and immediately started moving, and Li Xiangguo hurriedly followed him.
Huairen Hall, Chairman's office.
The Chairman looked serious, listening to Li Xiangguo.
Li Xiangguo conveyed the intelligence he had received word for word to the Chairman and dared not speak any further.
The veteran general looked at the Chairman and said, "Chairman, how do you think we should handle this matter?"
The Chairman pondered and said, "Looking at things now, the purpose behind America's actions might not be solely to put Lin Chuan to death; there may be another purpose, which is to use Lin Chuan's situation to demonstrate to us."
The veteran general lowered his head in thought for a while and said, "Chairman's analysis makes sense."
The Chairman continued, "If we look at it this way, it's not easy for us to directly negotiate with the Americans regarding Lin Chuan's matter, as it might cause unnecessary international disputes."
The old General was a bit anxious, "Chairman, we can't do that, we can't just watch Lin Chuan die."
The Chairman smiled slightly, a glint of wisdom in his eyes, and said, "Don't worry, old General. Handling this requires some finesse. Although we can't directly intervene, we can interfere through other avenues."
The old General couldn't understand the meaning behind the Chairman's words and looked at him in bewilderment.
The Chairman said, "Old General, don't you understand yet? We can have friendly countries or some well-known figures exert pressure on the United States to change a secret trial into a public trial. That way, Lin Chuan can be saved."
The old General's eyes lit up upon hearing the Chairman's words, and he raised his thumb, saying, "The Chairman is truly wise. Doing this avoids conflict with the Americans and also saves Lin Chuan. This is good."
Li Xiangguo, however, was a bit confused and didn't know what exactly was in the Chairman's mind.
The Chairman replied with some humor, "Old General, don't praise me anymore, if you do I'll truly feel unworthy, hahaha. I'll call the Ministry of Foreign Affairs now and have them act immediately."
As they left Huairen Hall, the anxious look on the old General's face disappeared, and he seemed somewhat happy.
Li Xiangguo couldn't help but ask, "Old Chief, why does the Chairman say that if Lin Chuan is publicly tried, he will be saved?"
The old General raised the cane in his hand and gently tapped Li Xiangguo on the backside, saying, "You've been in the central government for so long, and you can't even see this? As long as Lin Chuan is publicly tried and has support from all sides, the US government, under pressure, won't dare to easily sentence Lin Chuan to death. As long as he's not sentenced to death, he will be saved."
The Dutch Royal Family.
Queen Margaret had also received the definite news, and she wasn't willing to see Lin Chuan die just like that. This was a perfect opportunity; if she could sway Lin Chuan to her side, it would be a significant boost for the country's image.
The request she made in her personal capacity to the US President Omama a couple of days ago hadn't received a response, which already left her feeling some dissatisfaction. Now she directly instructed Philap to issue a formal protest on behalf of Holland, sternly protesting the US's secret trial of Lin Chuan.
At this time, Silver Fox and Zhou Kai were planning a major operation.
Silver Fox, Zhou Kai, and Tang Yumeng had been in Washington for three days. Although they thought of various ways to rescue Lin Chuan, without seeing him in person, they didn't dare to act rashly.
According to Silver Fox's plan, to see Lin Chuan, they must find someone who can arrange a meeting with him.
In Washington, there were only two or three people who could directly take them to see Lin Chuan.
One was the US President Omama, which was a bit too unreliable. Omama's security measures were so tight that seeing him wasn't even possible.
The second person was the CIA Director, Everson.
In the past two days, Zhou Kai and Silver Fox used all their connections to thoroughly investigate Everson's family, background, hobbies, and even his daily schedule.
Li Qiang, Lu Dapao, and Huang Bo, a few brainless guys, suggested directly kidnapping Everson, but this was immediately opposed by Silver Fox and Tang Yumeng.
Everson was the CIA Director; if they succeeded in kidnapping him, it would certainly provoke strong discontent from the US government. Not only would Lin Chuan's life be at risk, but many countries would also be implicated.
World peace is hard-won, and it can't be risked for one Lin Chuan.
At this time, Silver Fox, Tang Yumeng, Zhou Kai, and Zhou Rui were sitting together, and Silver Fox was presenting her plan.
"We've thoroughly investigated Everson. Although he is very busy at work, he always takes his grandson to Lincoln Park in the suburbs of Washington every weekend, rain or shine."
Before Silver Fox finished speaking, Zhou Kai interjected, "I understand, are we going to go directly to Everson and force him to take us to see Brother Chuan?"
Silver Fox frowned, and Zhou Rui quickly said to Zhou Kai, "Kai, shut up and listen to what Silver Fox has to say first."
"First, we need to deal with Everson's two bodyguards, and then use his grandson to force him to take us to see Lin Chuan," Silver Fox continued, "Zhou Kai, you need to find a way to distract the two bodyguards without harming them."
"Alright," Zhou Kai replied.
On the morning of the weekend, Everson set aside all his work and took his grandson to Lincoln Park under the escort of two bodyguards.
Lincoln Park is located two kilometers from downtown Washington, and every weekend countless tourists visit.
Everson's grandson was only eight years old and was very endearing. Everson doted on his only grandson.
The weather was clear and sunny, with a comfortable temperature, and the lush green park indeed provided a very pleasant atmosphere.
Everson lay back on a park recliner, watching his grandson playing happily with several other children in the grass a dozen meters ahead, while the two bodyguards were less than ten meters away on his left side.
Suddenly, he heard a commotion on his right.
Everson turned to look and saw several Asian men with yellow skin arguing with two American women.
