Huo Shaoheng didn't have any opinion on who the prime minister was. As long as it was elected and the voters supported it, he would support it.
"General Ji, I understand. Since the election has been restarted, I will have the Special Operations Forces field personnel around the world pay attention to the local VIPs. I won't let them disrupt the election. "
This was Huo Shaoheng's responsibility and the reason General Ji had specifically sought him out today.
General Ji was very satisfied that Huo Shaoheng knew what to do without the need to say it.
"Okay, I'll leave the outside matters to you. Next, to prevent any accidents, the military will mobilize a group of reserve personnel to monitor the election and voting situation in various places. Last time, they used the Special Operations Forces' central control room to monitor the election and voting. This time, Old Long wants you to help monitor it again. "
General Ji picked up the Kung Fu teacup on the desk with a smile and took a sip of the fragrant Da Hong Pao tea.
Huo Shaoheng raised his eyebrows. "You want to use the central control room? Then I'll be clear. This time, only my people can monitor it. The people outside, whether it's the Senate, the Cabinet, or the military's five major military regions, can't interfere. "
"That's for sure." General Ji agreed immediately.
Last time, it was a mess of people who entered the central control room. After Huo Shaoheng came back, he carried out a major purge. Even now, there were still many people locked up in the military police. They couldn't be released without clarifying the situation.
"That's good." Huo Shaoheng nodded. "Then please sign a special order with Speaker Long, and I'll make the arrangements immediately."
Huo Shaoheng knew that he had to follow the rules when doing things in the country. He had to follow the necessary procedures, and he had to ask for the necessary proof.
General Ji had already prepared it. He took it out for him to see and smiled. "I'll have Secretary Cao send it to you. Can you rest assured now?"
"General Ji, you must be joking. I'm just trying to shut other people up." Huo Shaoheng smiled slightly and looked at his watch. It was already noon.
"The news is starting. I'm going to get someone to deploy the reserve troops. Since we've decided to restart the election, we only have a week to prepare in case of emergency. "General Ji picked up his military cap and put it on." Shaoheng, I'll leave the foreign affairs to you. "
"Don't worry, Chief!" Huo Shaoheng stood up and gave a standard military salute.
General Ji's video call was quickly cut off.
Huo Shaoheng turned on the wall-mounted TV in the study and saw that all the TV stations had interrupted their normal broadcasts to broadcast the Senate's special decision live.
He thought for a moment, pressed the intercom, and said to the orderly outside, "Ask Colonel Yin and Miss Gu to come to my study."
The orderly responded loudly and quickly ran downstairs to the dining room to call Yin Shixiong and Gu Nianzhi up.
Yin Shixiong and Gu Nianzhi walked in one after the other. The two of them seemed to be in a good mood as they chatted and laughed from time to time.
Huo Shaoheng glanced at them and said dryly, "Close the door."
Yin Shixiong quickly closed the study door and asked in surprise, "Huo Shao, what's the matter?"
"Yeah, I'll watch TV." Huo Shaoheng clasped his hands together and leaned back in the tall, soft chair.
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
"…"
They looked at each other, unsure of what Huo Shaoheng was up to.
"Sit. Why are you standing?" Huo Shaoheng pointed at the two swivel chairs in front of his desk. "Important breaking news."
"Oh?" Yin Shixiong's heart tightened, and he stopped laughing. "Is it related to Prime Minister Tan's incident?"
Huo Shaoheng grunted, but his eyes quickly swept over Gu Nianzhi's face.
Gu Nianzhi's expression was very calm. If it weren't for her butterfly-like eyelashes that trembled almost imperceptibly, even Huo Shaoheng wouldn't have been able to see the anxiety in her heart.
Of course, Yin Shixiong didn't notice anything strange at all.
He smiled as he sat down on the swivel chair on the left and waved at Gu Nianzhi. "Come, Nianzhi. Sit here."
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she sat down on the swivel chair on the right.
At that moment, the huge wall-mounted TV on the opposite wall began to show the image of the Senate.
In the glorious and resplendent hall of the Senate, the seats were arranged in a fan shape from low to high, surrounding the small podium in front of them.
The white-haired, ruddy Speaker Long wore a black tuxedo with a snow-white bow tie. He stood behind the podium and began to speak with a serious expression.
"Ladies and gentlemen present, and the vast television audience of the nation, hello. On behalf of the Upper and Lower Houses of the Hua Xia Imperial Parliament, I would like to first wish the people of the nation a happy Lantern Festival. "
There was a loud clatter, and waves of enthusiastic applause rang out in the Senate hall.
Speaker Long's expression softened, and he paused to wait for the applause to quiet down before continuing.
"I'm sure everyone already knows about what happened last night, so I won't repeat it here. What I want to emphasize is that we will definitely pursue the instigator of this incident to the end and use legal means to protect the interests of the nation and its people. However, due to the huge international and domestic impact this incident has caused, as well as the conclusion reached after careful technical verification, we are certain that Mr. Tan Dongbang no longer has the qualifications and integrity to continue serving as our nation's Prime Minister. "
There was complete silence both inside and outside the TV. Not only the people of the nation, but people from all over the world were probably paying attention to this special meeting of the Hua Xia Imperial Parliament.
"Unfortunately, after discussion, Mr. Tan Dongbang refused to resign as Prime Minister of the Hua Xia Empire. Under these circumstances, in order to protect the dignity of our nation's leader and the dignity of our nation, the Upper and Lower Houses of the Parliament unanimously voted to authorize the dissolution of the cabinet and restart the general election after an emergency meeting this morning. "
As soon as Speaker Long finished speaking, Yin Shixiong jumped up and screamed, "What?! Dissolve the cabinet?! Doesn't that mean we won't have a government after the Lunar New Year?! "
"It's just dissolving the cabinet. How is that a government?" Gu Nianzhi glanced at Yin Shixiong calmly. "Did you exclude the Parliament and the military from the government?"
"What I meant was, the administrative department, okay? A logician? "Yin Shixiong glared at Gu Nianzhi." I was just saying. Do you have to be so serious? "
"Can you just say something like that?" Gu Nianzhi felt a bit guilty, so she didn't let Yin Shixiong off. "This is a basic rule for national affairs. Don't paralyze the entire government just because you say something."
"Fine, fine, I can't win against you in an argument." Yin Shixiong waved his hand angrily and turned to look at Huo Shaoheng. "Huo Shao, what do you want me to do?"
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "As the Deputy Chief of the Special Operations Forces, inform our field personnel around the world. The operation code will be Nighthawks. Pay attention to the relevant local people and don't let anyone have the possibility of disrupting our general election."
"Yes, Chief." Yin Shixiong stood up and saluted before striding out.
The door slammed shut, and the sound made Gu Nianzhi's heart tremble.
She pursed her lips and slowly stood up. Smiling, she said, "Huo Shao, you're busy. I'll be going too." With that, she turned to leave.
Huo Shaoheng didn't stop her. He silently watched her open the door to the study and walk out.
Not long after, he heard the door to the suite open and close outside.
Huo Shaoheng looked down at the keyboard in front of him and typed two commands to check the network data of the official residence for the past two days.
As he expected, the network data in Gu Nianzhi's suite was a bit abnormal.
Huo Shaoheng picked up the mouse and opened the surveillance program to take a closer look.
Gu Nianzhi had connected to the external system from the Special Operations Forces' intranet. Although it was difficult to find out what she had done after she went out, it was still possible to see her first destination.
At least, what did Gu Nianzhi need to access the server of a library in a small town in Europe from the intranet?
Huo Shaoheng's hands flew across the keyboard as he quietly erased all traces of Gu Nianzhi's online activity from last night.
After turning off the computer, Huo Shaoheng went to Gu Nianzhi's suite.
The living room of the small suite was quiet. The curtains were closed silently, and the sun shone through the snow-white curtains. Dust particles could be seen dancing in the light.
The bedroom door was open, and Huo Shaoheng walked in.
Gu Nianzhi was concentrating on typing program after program on the computer.
Huo Shaoheng came up behind her and bent down to prop his arms on the desk in front of Gu Nianzhi. He pulled her into his arms and asked calmly, "… What are you doing?"
Gu Nianzhi was so scared that her whole body trembled and she almost jumped up.
Huo Shaoheng reacted quickly and pressed down on her shoulders to sit down. Only then did she not bump her head against Huo Shaoheng's chin.
"… Let go of me." Gu Nianzhi moved her shoulders uncomfortably and wanted to escape from Huo Shaoheng's grasp.
"What if I say no?" Huo Shaoheng leaned forward and gently brushed his cheek against Gu Nianzhi's earlobe.
Half of Gu Nianzhi's body went numb, but she was too scared to feel this unusual touch.
"… What are you doing here? I still have something to do. " Gu Nianzhi tried her best to speak calmly, but her voice trembled slightly at the end to show her true feelings.
Huo Shaoheng tilted his head to look at her and sighed softly. He reached out with his large, warm hands to hold both of Gu Nianzhi's hands. "What are you afraid of?"
"I'm not …" Gu Nianzhi pretended to be relaxed and forced a smile. Her plump, curvy lips curled up, but the dimples at the corners of her lips didn't show.
Huo Shaoheng still maintained his posture and held both of her hands. He looked at her silently until he saw a crystal bead of sweat drip from the corner of her forehead.
He could imagine how much mental pressure she was under.
Huo Shaoheng sighed and kissed her cheek. He whispered, "Don't be afraid. I'm here. Everything will be fine."
"… What … What could happen?" Gu Nianzhi was about to cry. She couldn't understand how Huo Shaoheng knew she was the one who did it.
She had clearly erased all traces of it!
"Nianzhi, you can trust me." Huo Shaoheng's arms tightened and he pulled her into his embrace from behind. "Tell me, what did you do?"
