He hurriedly put on his clothes and went to the door of the study. He saw Yin Shixiong standing there in his military uniform, just like the orderlies standing guard in the military.
Speaker Long's heart sank even further.
Yin Shixiong was already a colonel. What could have happened for a colonel to stand guard for them?!
Yin Shixiong saw that Speaker Long had arrived and reached out to open the door. "Speaker Long, please come in. Our chief has been waiting for a long time."
Speaker Long smiled and patted Yin Shixiong on the shoulder. "Waiting for a long time? Big Xiong, you're really good at making things up. It took me less than three minutes to come to the study from the time I heard the news. You're exaggerating, aren't you? "
Yin Shixiong knew that Speaker Long had always been approachable like this. He also chuckled. "You calculated the time from the time you received the news that we came to your house. But our time was calculated from 1: 30 in the morning when we went to your Senate building secretariat to request to see you. "
Speaker Long was taken aback and looked at his watch. "It's 2: 30 now. 1: 30? I don't think I was asleep then? Why didn't anyone inform me? "
Yin Shixiong rolled his eyes in his mind and didn't say anything else. He gestured for Speaker Long to enter.
Yin Shixiong waited for Speaker Long to enter the study before closing the door and standing guard at the door.
In the study, Speaker Long looked at Huo Shaoheng, who was also standing straight, and wondered, "What's going on? Big Xiong is speaking very strangely. "
The door to the study wasn't closed tightly, so Huo Shaoheng heard everything. He didn't explain but directly took out a brown envelope and handed it to Speaker Long. "This is the application that General Ji asked me to write in the wee hours of yesterday. I had Big Xiong send it to your secretariat early in the morning for you to sign so that we could start monitoring and investigation. In the end, I waited from morning until now, and it's already the next morning before I see you. Please sign it first. "
Speaker Long frowned and took the brown envelope from Huo Shaoheng's hand. He walked to the desk and sat down. He used a knife to cut open the envelope and pulled out a document inside to read it. His expression suddenly changed.
"What?! You want to monitor … him?! " Speaker Long almost called out the name "Hong Kangquan" on the document, but he quickly stopped himself and stopped himself from saying the name.
"Yes, hurry up and sign it. Once you're done, I'll immediately make the arrangements." Huo Shaoheng spoke unhurriedly. Although his tone was calm, there was a hint of urgency in his words. "We've already been delayed for a day. We can't delay any longer."
Speaker Long's frown deepened. "Why? Shaoheng, what reason do you have to make such a request to a minister in the cabinet? I want to see more evidence. "
Unlike General Ji, Speaker Long was more concerned about whether or not Huo Shaoheng's organization was abusing its power domestically.
In the national organization, he would not allow any organization to have the possibility of being dominant.
The parliament not only balanced the military and the cabinet, but also performed the duty of monitoring the military and the cabinet.
Huo Shaoheng's Special Operations Forces already had too much power overseas. He had to be vigilant and not let this power extend to the country.
Huo Shaoheng also knew this reason, so he had always kept his distance from domestic affairs. He would not interfere if he could.
This time, the monitoring of the national interim election was also at the request of Speaker Long, General Ji, and the various ministers in the cabinet. He had only begun to arrange the work after obtaining their authorization.
Similarly, Huo Shaoheng could not do much with the monitoring of Hong Kangquan without Speaker Long's signature. He could only ask his subordinates to "pay special attention" to Hong Kangquan, but he could not conduct actual monitoring. Naturally, he could not grasp more of Hong Kangquan's whereabouts.
In fact, Huo Shaoheng was also very curious. Where did Hong Kangquan go after getting rid of the two people following him last night?
From the depths of his heart, he believed that Hong Kangquan might have wanted his life, but he was not willing to believe that Hong Kangquan was a traitor who betrayed the interests of the country.
The conflict between him and Hong Kangquan should be a conflict among the people in a power struggle. It was completely different from the conflict between the enemy and the traitor who betrayed the interests of the country.
However, it did not matter whether he believed it or not. To prove what Hong Kangquan was trying to do, they needed concrete evidence.
The reason why they had to conduct comprehensive monitoring of him was to prove whether the information they received was true or false.
Because Hong Kangquan's position as the head of the Secret Service was too important.
Previously, the deputy head of the Secret Service, Bai Yusheng, who was in charge of the North American region, had committed treason. This led to the death of the Secret Service's top spy who had been lying in ambush in the US CIA for many years, and the annihilation of the Secret Service's field personnel in North America.
Now, it was the head of the Secret Service who was suspected. If he really was a mole, then all of the Huaxia Empire's arrangements on the entire Blue Planet would have to be reshuffled.
The losses involved here, whether in terms of human lives or property, were immeasurable.
"… Senior Speaker Long, we received a report, but we can't disclose the details for now. That's why we've decided to conduct comprehensive surveillance in order to prove his innocence," Huo Shaoheng said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing. He didn't immediately condemn Hong Kangquan.
Understanding this, Speaker Long's face turned even paler. He lowered his head and quickly signed his name, stamped it, and pressed his fingerprint. He handed it back to Huo Shaoheng and asked coldly, "… If it was so serious, why didn't you inform me immediately?! It has already been 22 hours since Old Ji signed it, and you gave it to me! "
At times like this, time was truly life!
The lives of all the Secret Service personnel in their country were at stake!
Huo Shaoheng took the brown envelope and carefully examined the three signed application documents. He took out one and placed it in front of Speaker Long. He said calmly, "You can keep this for your records."
He then said nonchalantly, "As soon as General Ji signed it, I asked Big Xiong to send this envelope to your secretariat. I remember that Big Xiong personally handed it to Special Assistant Yang at around six o 'clock yesterday morning."
Speaker Long was taken aback. "You said it was handed to Special Assistant Yang at around six o 'clock yesterday morning? Why didn't he mention it to me? "
"I don't know about that." Huo Shaoheng shook his head calmly. "I waited all day, but you didn't sign the authorization. It wasn't until 1: 30 this morning that I couldn't wait any longer. This matter couldn't be delayed any longer, so I personally went to your secretariat to look for him. You know, this person was my old superior in the military, so I was very worried about alerting the enemy … "
Speaker Long remembered that Yin Shixiong had said that they had been "waiting for a long time" when they were at the door. They really had been waiting for a long time …
Speaker Long's chubby face gradually turned red and purple, filled with anger.
With a sullen expression, he picked up the phone and called the secretariat of the Senate.
Huo Shaoheng also connected to his Bluetooth headset and issued an order to his staff who were on standby. "Authorized. The operation will begin immediately."
The comprehensive surveillance of Hong Kangquan was to cover all of his whereabouts from all angles.
In addition to immediately taking over the internet and telephones in his office, home, and all of his residences, they also had to go to the places he frequented to install surveillance equipment.
Of course, the most important thing was to retrieve Hong Kangquan's tracking chip from the Special Operations Forces' central control room and read the data.
Huo Shaoheng didn't really care that the two Special Operations Forces personnel had lost track of Hong Kangquan, because he had a trump card in hand.
Every member of the Secret Service had a tracking chip in their body, which was controlled by Huo Shaoheng's Special Operations Forces. Unless they resigned from the Secret Service or died, the chip could not be removed.
Removing the chip without permission was tantamount to treason.
And the data of the chip could not be read by the Special Operations Forces at will.
In other words, the data of the tracking chip was stored in the Special Operations Forces' central control room's supercomputer, but in order to read the data, authorization was required.
As long as he obtained authorization from Speaker Long and General Ji, he would be able to read the data of Hong Kangquan's tracking chip and know all of Hong Kangquan's whereabouts. Naturally, he would also know where Hong Kangquan had gone after getting rid of his pursuers last night.
When Bai Yusheng had committed treason, he had used Bai Yusheng's tracking chip to track him down. Unfortunately, he had failed at the last step, and Bai Yusheng had escaped.
Thinking of this, Huo Shaoheng's eyes narrowed. He had a bad feeling about this.
Yesterday, the two Special Operations Forces personnel had lost track of Hong Kangquan. Had they already alerted the enemy?!
What if the tracking chip in Hong Kangquan's body had been removed a long time ago, just like Bai Yusheng's?
On second thought, if it had really been removed, then they wouldn't need any other evidence.
Just this point alone was enough to convict Hong Kangquan of treason.
Huo Shaoheng's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately issued an order to his subordinates. "Notify all customs ports across the country. From now on, anyone leaving customs must undergo an iris scan and fingerprint test. Immediately send the iris and fingerprint data of Target A to the electronic detection system of all customs ports across the country. Anyone who is detected with this data is not allowed to leave customs. "
He hoped that he was overthinking everything, but if Hong Kangquan was really like Bai Yusheng and realized that they were monitoring him, then his next step would definitely be to leave the Huaxia Empire.
