Yin Shixiong froze. "It's one in the morning? Huo Shao, even though we don't sleep and are used to working all night, others aren't! "
This was especially true for those lords in the parliament. They were all little princesses who lived like princes. Just because they were chosen, they felt that they were a cut above the others in the three departments of the empire. They could accuse someone of something they didn't agree with.
Only someone like Speaker Long could control the members of the Senate.
"And Speaker Long isn't young anymore. I heard he had an entire day of meetings today …" Yin Shixiong scratched his head. "Do you really want to call him at this time?"
Huo Shaoheng's smile faded, and his eyes darkened. "What? Are you the first person to stop me? "
"Huh? I wouldn't dare! " Yin Shixiong quickly waved his hands. He was so scared that he was tongue-tied. "I, I, I … I just wanted to remind Huo Shao …"
"Then go make the call." Huo Shaoheng turned on his computer. "Say it's an emergency. If I can't get through to Speaker Long in ten minutes, I will personally visit him at his home."
"Yes, Chief!"
Yin Shixiong didn't dare to say anything else and quickly jogged out to call Speaker Long.
Normally, when someone called someone of Speaker Long's level, if it was official business, they would first call his office. Speaker Long's office was the secretariat.
For example, no matter when they wanted to contact General Ji, they would call his office, or Office Ji for short.
To get more familiar, they would directly call Secretary Cao.
General Ji and Speaker Long's offices were staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
When the staff received the call, they would transfer it to the person in charge according to the priority of the matter.
Yin Shixiong followed his usual practice and called Speaker Long's secretariat.
The phone rang a few times, but no one picked up. It was the automatic reply system. "Hello, this is the Senate Secretariat. Please leave your name, phone number, and questions after the beep. We will reply as soon as possible. "
"Di your head, I'll let you di!" Yin Shixiong was furious. The interim election was imminent, and the Special Operations Forces wanted nothing more than to grow four hands to work hard. How could those little princesses in the Senate Secretariat not even pick up the phone?!
Thinking about the Huo Office (Huo Shaoheng's Office) phone calls, there would always be people answering, recording, and immediately transferring to the person in charge.
Every call would be guaranteed to be answered within an hour, and for urgent matters, it would be responded to within ten minutes.
But what about the Parliament?
During these seven or eight days, Yin Shixiong could be considered to have witnessed the elegance of the people in the Parliament …
In a fit of anger, he picked up the phone and turned on the automatic dialing program. He refused to leave a message. As long as the other side of the phone kept ringing, he would not be able to enter the voicemail program.
Ten minutes later, the person on duty in the Secretariat of the Senate was finally woken up by the incessant ringing of the phone. He picked up the phone and said sleepily, "Hello, this is …"
Before he could finish, Yin Shixiong roared, "This is Major General Huo's office from the Special Operations Forces! Major General Huo had an urgent matter to discuss with Speaker Long! Please transfer it to Speaker Long immediately! "
The person on the other side was obviously shocked. After a while, he asked, "Who are you? Who are you looking for? "
"I'm not looking for you!" Yin Shixiong put his hands on his hips. "Major General Huo of the Special Operations Forces wishes to see Speaker Long for an urgent matter! Hurry up and inform Speaker Long! If I don't hear your response within a minute, I'll go to Speaker Long's house myself! "
The person on the other side of the phone finally came to his senses and quickly said, "Please wait!"
He pressed the "hold" button on the phone and asked Special Assistant Yang, who was working overtime. "Special Assistant Yang, Major General Huo of the Special Operations Forces wishes to see Speaker Long for an urgent matter. Do you think we should inform Speaker Long?"
Special Assistant Yang frowned and looked at his watch. "It's already 1: 30 in the morning. Why can't they talk about it tomorrow? Speaker Long had been in meetings all day and was exhausted. He had just fallen asleep. " "Okay, I'll go inform them." The person on duty picked up the phone and said to Yin Shixiong, "Hello, Speaker Long has been in meetings all day and is exhausted. He has already gone home to rest. Can you talk about it tomorrow if you have something to say? "
"I can't. If I could say it tomorrow, why would I call now?! "Yin Shixiong was very stubborn." Okay, Speaker Long has gone home, right? We'll go find him now. "
Yin Shixiong was about to hang up when Special Assistant Yang picked up the phone and started talking to him.
"Is this Colonel Yin?" Special Assistant Yang recognized Yin Shixiong's voice. "What is it? Can't you wait until tomorrow? You know, Speaker Long is very old. He had a whole day of video meetings today and almost vomited … "
Yin Shixiong's voice became sinister. "Who are you? What right do you have to stop us from seeing Speaker Long? "
"I am Special Assistant Yang." Special Assistant Yang quickly introduced himself. "Colonel Yin, do you not remember me? We even spoke at the Senate today. "
"Spoke? Why don't I remember? "Yin Shixiong pretended to be confused.
"How can that be? Didn't you give me a document this morning? Have you forgotten? "As soon as Special Assistant Yang finished speaking, he knew he had said the wrong thing. Unfortunately, it was too late for him to take it back.
Yin Shixiong laughed like a barbell. His laughter was like a hammer, making Special Assistant Yang very uncomfortable.
"Hahahaha … Yes, I gave you the document this morning and said it needed Speaker Long's signature. It's getting better and better. Special Assistant Yang, where's the document?"
Special Assistant Yang smiled good-naturedly. "I asked Miss Gu to give the document to Speaker Long to sign. Didn't she tell you? "
Yin Shixiong, "… Miss Gu?"
"Yes, it's our new intern, Miss Gu Nianzhi." Special Assistant Yang flipped through the address book of the Senate staff. "I have her phone number here. Do you want to call and ask her?"
Special Assistant Yang clearly knew that Gu Nianzhi grew up with Yin Shixiong and Huo Shaoheng, but now he deliberately pretended not to know and even acted like he was doing his job to find Yin Shixiong's phone number.
Yin Shixiong was disgusted, but he couldn't say that Special Assistant Yang was in the wrong.
Because according to convention, this was how it should be handled.
Yin Shixiong's face darkened as he asked Special Assistant Yang for confirmation, "Did you really ask Miss Gu to give that document to Speaker Long to sign?"
"Yes, I remember giving the document to her and asking her to sign it after Speaker Long's meeting is over. Did she not finish her job?" Special Assistant Yang pretended to ask the person on duty next to him, "Where did Miss Gu put the signed document?"
"Special Assistant Yang, Miss Gu got off work on time today. She didn't bring any document to Speaker Long to sign?" The person on duty expressed that he didn't know anything about this.
"Oh, then I'm sorry. Miss Gu was probably too busy today and forgot to bring it to Speaker Long to sign. You also know that she is a newcomer, so we can't be too harsh on newcomers. How about this, when she comes tomorrow, I'll ask her to bring the document to Speaker Long to sign. What do you think? "Special Assistant Yang twirled the pen in his hand and asked happily.
"There's no need." Yin Shixiong glanced at Huo Shaoheng's increasingly impatient gaze and quickly said, "There's no need to trouble you. I'll come over right away to retrieve the document and personally bring it to Speaker Long to sign."
Special Assistant Yang was unhappy. "Colonel Yin, I already said that Speaker Long is sleeping now. What's the big deal? Can't you wait until tomorrow?"
