Chapter 361: Chapter 213: Alpha Force Arrests People
Director Elvis carefully examined the docunt after taking it, but as its contents continued to erge before his eyes, his expression went from serious to earnest until, finally, it was one of shock.
To be honest, before he saw this information, he had even suspected that David might have arrested the wrong person.
After all, whether it was the California Institute of Technology or the World Trade Center Association, the number of mbers and the volu of people involved were both enormous.
In his opinion, this was definitely not a workload that could be completed within just a few days.
But now, David had not only uncovered the two spies from Bear Country hidden within the California Institute of Technology but had also pulled out three business spies from the World Trade Center Association. It was too inconceivable.
“How… how did you pull them out?”
“I have my ways.”
Although Director Elvis really wanted to know this so-called thod, David clearly didn’t want to elaborate, so he didn’t feel it was appropriate to press further.
After a mont of thought, he said, “How about this, we don’t need those three business spies. Just hand over the two from the California Institute of Technology to us, how does that sound?”
The three from the World Trade Association were rely business spies and were not as destructive to national security, while the two from the California Institute of Technology were stealing core technology, which was obviously more critical. Turning them in would naturally an greater credit for Director Elvis.
“No, these three aren’t being handed over to you.”
“What do you an?”
Director Elvis hadn’t grasped his aning yet.
“These five are for to exchange for Rodrigozki. I’ve also arrested four more from the City Hall and the Naval Air Station. Those four are your share, but I haven’t interrogated them yet; you go deal with it.”
“What?!”
Director Elvis’s thoughts had been preoccupied by the five spies, but on hearing this, he realized there were four more spies?
And they were arrested from the City Hall and the Naval Air Station?
If it was indeed confird that these were spies threatening national defense security, one could only imagine the significance.
If this was reported up the chain, the charge causing huge losses to Bear Country Station might not be completely offset, but at least he wouldn’t be subjected to dismissal or a clearing of accounts.
“They are in our detention room. I’ll have soone take you for the transfer…”
“Wait, Director David…”
Director Elvis seems to have thought of sothing, and after turning his eyeballs, he said, “In addition to those four spies, how about you hand over those two arrested at the California Institute of Technology to too, and we at the CIA will take care of Rodrigozki for you, how about that?”
To him, these spies were like bricks of gold: for each one he could turn in, he would accrue more political achievents. How could he not vie for them?
“I don’t need to kill him; I need to capture him and put him on our court to stand trial, to deter everyone!”
David was no fool and naturally refused without hesitation.
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Director Elvis’s mouth, but he was still persistent, saying, “If we really need to capture him… it’s not impossible. Could you let the CIA have a try at it?”
“No need, I don’t have ti to ss around. That’s all, Director Elvis, let’s leave it there.”
David was getting impatient. If he handed over the two spies from the California Institute of Technology to the CIA, the remaining three business spies might not be enough to negotiate with Bear Country. He had to play it safe.
“This… alright then.”
With the conversation reaching this point, Director Elvis knew it would be inappropriate to press any further.
He also knew that the four spies David had given him were much more important than the previous five; to ask for more would seem rather unseemly.
After all, in this arrest operation, the CIA had only provided a piece of intelligence and had gained four important spies with little effort. It was indeed a big win.
About half an hour after Director Elvis departed, soone knocked on the office door, and David stopped his work and called out, “Co in.”
The next second, Nisen pushed the door open, and he was followed by a man around fifty years old.
This man had a round, rather plump face, and his belly bulged against his suit, which seed barely buttoned and ready to burst at any mont.
“Director, this is Mr. Tugenev, the consul from Bear Country.”
David imdiately extended his right hand and said, “Consul General Tugenev, it’s a pleasure to et you.”
Tugenev also extended his right hand for a shake and then said with so impatience, “Director David, I have a lot of work, so if you have sothing to say, please speak directly.”
According to international laws, the Inland Revenue Service actually had no authority over the Bear Country Consulate, so originally, he had no intention of dealing with David.
But the problem was that Nisen was too cunning, threatening that if he didn’t co, the Western Suburb Branch would thoroughly investigate all tax issues of Bear Countryn in the area.
And if the Western suburb Branch were to take such action, the Bear Country Consulate would have to cooperate in dealing with many troubles, so Tugenev had been forced to co, and that’s why he was hardly in a good mood.
“Alright, then I’ll get straight to the point. You must have heard sothing about Rodrigozki’s case…”
Tugenev imdiately gestured with his palm to stop him, then said, “Yes, I’ve heard of it, but sorry, Director David, whatever cris Rodrigozki has committed in your jurisdiction, he is a citizen of Bear Country, and now he is in Bear Country. Our two countries don’t have an extradition agreent, so I can’t help you.”
