Before dawn the next day, the residents living in Walvis Bay suddenly heard a rush of military orders coming from outside the window, followed by the sound of a large number of car engines.
Cars whizzed past the windows of the residents, shrouding the entire town in an oppressive haze.
Many people were alarmed, thinking that there were rebels in Namibia or that it was a precursor to war.
These people looked out the window nervously, only to see hundreds of soldiers armed with live ammunition lining up in Walvis Bay. Military jeeps were parked in a row as if they were being inspected by the leaders.
Seeing that this group of soldiers was not in a state of alert, these residents finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, what was even more surprising was that these troops all stopped at the Flamingo Hotel. After a while, several soldiers escorted an Asian man out of the hotel and then into a military vehicle.
Finally, this group of troops once again left Walvis Bay in a mighty manner...
...
Under the escort of the Namibian army, Chen Chen smoothly checked into the Mainland Embassy in the capital, Windhoek.
In the next few days, Chen Chen did not take even half a step out of the embassy. Even matters such as signing contracts and holding meetings were carried out in the embassy. The mysterious organization from that night did not look for Chen Chen again.
However, Chen Chen knew that the other party had not given up. They were just silently waiting for him to show up again.
Moreover, since the previous attempt to capture him alive had failed, the next time would be an assassination.
After all, the other party's goal was to prevent him from investing in Namibia. Blacklight Biotechnology was a wholly-owned enterprise in Mainland China. Once the legal owner died, according to the legal process, before his parents inherited the company, they would have to seize and verify the accounts. Naturally, they would not be able to continue investing in Namibia.
However, according to Little X's investigation, this was indeed the work of the Rainbow Nation. The secret plan against him was still on the desktop of the Rainbow Nation's National Security Bureau.
However, the Rainbow Nation did not directly take action. Instead, they handed the project over to a private military company called "Tara".
The full name: Tara Private Security Company.
Looking at the information sent by Little X, Chen Chen fell into deep thought.
This company was the former Executive Mercenary Company.
After the Outcomes Mercenary Company was split up, a new private military company was formed by one of the executives.
Back then, EO was unparalleled in Africa. They were active everywhere, such as quelling the Rwanda crisis, helping the governments of Sierra Leone and Papua New Guinea to quell the unrest, defeating the Angolan rebels, and so on …
Although it was later dissolved due to the United Nations' International Anti-Mercenary Act, even a broken ship had three pounds of nails. They had to be wary of this Tara Private Security Company.
However, the fact that the information on his side could be transmitted to the Rainbow Nation so quickly, even allowing the other party to know his itinerary like the back of their hand, this was the internal reason of Namibia.
It was just that there was too little information available to Little X to find out who the mole was for the time being.
"Mr. Chen Chen?"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. It was the staff of the embassy.
"Come in, it's not locked," Chen Chen said to the door.
At once, the door opened gently. A staff member of the embassy led a black woman in. "Mr. Chen Chen, someone from the Namibian Department of Investment wishes to see you."
Chen Chen frowned inwardly, but when he saw who it was, a gentlemanly smile appeared on his face. "It's Madam Lydia."
"Mr. Chen Chen knows me?"
The woman in front of him was wearing a black evening gown. Her face lit up when she heard this. "I don't think we've met before."
"I've seen your photo on the official Namibian website." Chen Chen said politely, "Besides, your voice is still fresh in my mind."
"I see. I wonder if Mr. Chen Chen is disappointed or satisfied after seeing me in person?"
The woman sat down in front of Chen Chen like a lady, her bearing graceful. If not for her skin color, Chen Chen would not have believed that the woman in front of him was black.
That was right, she was the "black car" that Chen Chen had mentioned.
"I'm a little disappointed."
Chen Chen displayed a regretful expression. However, just as the other party showed a startled expression, Chen Chen said again, "I'm disappointed that I didn't come to Windhoek earlier. Otherwise, I would've been able to see Madam Lydia's beautiful face sooner. I have to say, it's a pity."
"Hahaha, Mr. Chen Chen, you're so funny!"
Hearing this, Lydia could not help but reveal a row of dazzling white teeth. She leaned more than half of her body toward Chen Chen and at the same time, used an extremely seductive tone to say, "Then, you're thinking of..."
"Ahem, Madam Lydia, did you come here to catch up with me?" Chen Chen suddenly coughed heavily and changed the subject.
"Uh, not really... I'm here on behalf of the investment department to ask you to attend the speech at the city hall on December 28th." Lydia seemed to be unable to keep up with Chen Chen's pace. At first, she was taken aback, then she gave Chen Chen a resentful look and explained.
"Speech?"
"Yes, you should understand that infrastructure like electricity is very rare in our country. The people of the country are eager to have enough electricity. Your investment may be just a commercial activity to you, but to the people of Namibia, you're an angel sent by God..."
Lydia looked at Chen Chen eagerly and at the same time, said without any hesitation, "However, due to our internal system, we have a disagreement with the Ministry of Environmental Protection regarding the location of the nuclear power plant. If you can participate in this speech and garner enough support from a group of citizens, then there will be no more resistance on the location issue!"
"When and where?" Chen Chen asked.
"The time is December 28th, starting at 12 noon. The location is usually set up in the square in front of the city hall."
"Not on TV? Doesn't that mean I have to show my face in public? "Chen Chen frowned.
"Don't worry about this, we'll arrange for sufficient security to ensure that you won't be in any danger," Lydia quickly explained.
"Oh?"
Chen Chen's expression flickered. He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised his head to look behind Lydia.
On the wall behind Lydia was a city map of Windhoek.
[Windhoek's geographical location is 22 ° 34 ′ S, 17 ° 06 ′ E. The day of the speech is December 28th, 2022. The point of direct sunlight at noon on that day is 23 ° 26 ′ S, the angle of sunlight = 90 ° - (point of direct sunlight – local latitude), substituting the formula gives...]
[Based on the angle of sunlight on the 28th, if the other party arranges for a sniper to assassinate me on that day, using the Fresnel effect, I must be in this position at noon...]
[In that case, in order to catch the other party, I must...]
In an instant, endless formulas flashed through Chen Chen's mind. From what Lydia saw, Chen Chen merely glanced behind her for a moment before returning to normal.
Lydia continued to persuade him. "Besides, this is the city. Even if the other party attacks you or assassinates you, where can they escape to?"
"You're right." Chen Chen nodded with a look that said, "But I have another request."
"Please do." Lydia perked up.
"I hope that the venue of the speech can be set here."
Chen Chen walked past Lydia and pointed to a spot on the map on the wall. "For safety reasons, I hope that the speech can be held near the embassy. I think this location is perfect."
"But, the embassy is already near the suburbs..." Lydia was a little troubled.
Chen Chen said nothing, only staring at her steadily.
Lydia lowered her head sheepishly. "... Alright, if you insist."
Soon, Lydia took her leave.
