"Motives, results, fairness and justice." President Pabre frowned and stared into his eyes. "Before I decided to pardon you, Lady Tai wanted to kill you, the Master of the Li family wanted to kill you, and even the two justices of the Supreme Court expressed their opposition. Where do you think the Federation's fairness and justice was at that time?"
"Mr. President, you are the most outstanding orator in the Federation. I don't expect to be able to convince you of anything. I only hope to be able to convince myself." After a pause, Xu Le said, "I've already said too much tonight, even more than what I usually say in a month. Let's stop here for now."
Although he stopped here, he still frowned and continued to speak. Looking at the people behind the transparent wall, he sighed emotionally. "I was prepared to get married, but it looks like I won't be able to in a short time. It's also possible that I won't be able to get married for the rest of my life. I'm really a bit disappointed."
He looked at Lee Jae-do and asked, "What would your father think? What would your son think if he did? "
With a sliver of complicated emotion, he looked at President Pabre and asked, "Do you really know who George Carlin is?"
"It's easy to think of the meeting room in prison." He gently patted the transparent wall in front of him and said, "It's just that I can't be sure at the moment whether I'm the prisoner or you guys."
In the end, Xu Le said, "You can shoot now."
…
…
The top-secret phone in the confidential room of the official residence rang. President Pabre picked up the receiver and listened silently. He could faintly hear words like "second sequence." It looked like this call was from the Bureau of Proclamation.
After hanging up the phone, President Pabre looked at Xu Le quietly for a long time. Suddenly, he said, "I never wanted to execute you. The Federation government will arrest you as a fugitive and put you on trial.
"Back then, the Bureau of Proclamation and the West Woods Military District's arrest in the West Woods never stopped. And you probably haven't forgotten the warrant for your arrest. Because of the appearance of the marshal, I haven't had time to issue an official pardon."
…
…
Following the silent order, the special elite soldiers who had been silently waiting in the corridor on the second floor of the presidential residence for a long time began to move. In the shortest amount of time, they broke through the two wooden doors that had long been listed as cultural relics.
There was a loud boom! The soldiers rushed in at high speed with high-powered firearms. Their fingers nervously pressed against the warm triggers, and the black muzzles did not leave Xu Le's body for a moment.
During this process, Xu Le was surprisingly calm and didn't make any attempts to resist. Because he knew that as long as he made any movement that would arouse the suspicion of these soldiers, they would definitely not hesitate to shoot at him. Perhaps …
The people behind the transparent wall were waiting for his resistance, because the Federation government needed a reason to execute him, so he couldn't give them a reason.
Xu Le silently raised his hands and allowed these elite special forces soldiers to rush in front of him. He twisted his arms and fastened the super-strong wrist restraints. His ankles were closed with heavy metal positioning valves. Then, he was tied layer by layer to a special metal frame like S3's special product, Zongzi.
The metal frame moved horizontally and vertically like a cross. The cold and thick frame pressed tightly against his spine. Because of the tight movements of the special forces soldiers, the part of his back that was in contact with the metal frame felt a cold pain, but it successfully made his posture appear even straighter, and his chin was raised even higher.
After the two most careful confirmations, confirming that the restraints, the super-strong restraints on his wrists, and the heavy metal positioning valves on his ankles were enough to prevent a real prehistoric monster from moving an inch, these elite special forces soldiers from the Capital Garrison Guard First Division finally let out a sigh of relief, and the strange and tense atmosphere in the study of the official residence finally faded a little.
The Federal Army was a place that respected the strong. Over the years, all the soldiers knew that the strongest of the younger generation in the army were Xu Le and Li Feng. Especially after Xu Le launched a surprise attack on the Empire and returned safely, his reputation in the army had become even more resounding. These elite special forces soldiers, who were usually incomparably proud and self-proclaimed, did not have any pride or confidence in front of Xu Le. They were full of vigilance and even reverence, nervous and worried that if he really did resist, how many people would die before this room truly quieted down?
During the entire process, Xu Le did not resist or even take the initiative to make any moves. However, the nervous special forces soldiers did not fight back, but it was as if they had just experienced the most difficult battle. Their expressions were forced to remain calm, but their combat uniforms were already soaked.
Before being pushed out of the severely damaged door of the study, Xu Le, who was tightly bound to the metal cross, narrowed his eyes and looked at the cup of jasmine tea on the table from the corner of his eyes. He asked the transparent wall, "Is this cup of tea poisoned?"
After learning the details of Shi Qinghai's accident from Zhang Xiaomeng last night, he had not drunk a single drop of liquid that was not processed by him. Therefore, he did not drink a single sip of this cup of jasmine tea. At this moment, he was very curious to know Mr. President's answer.
President Pabre frowned, and a faint tiredness and disappointment appeared in his calm and deep eyes. He did not answer his question.
Because of his silence, Xu Le's slightly narrowed eyes also showed a faint tiredness and disappointment.
…
…
The high-authority communication system on the desk continued to send out reports. Xu Le had been escorted out of the corridor, downstairs, and onto the lawn. He had been escorted into a specially modified armored vehicle and was then handed over to the Iron Seventh Division stationed on the west side of the square.
The transparent wall between the study and the confidential room of the President's official residence had been retracted back into the structure of the building. President Pabre, Lee Jae-do, and Du Shaoqing listened to the voice from the desk in silence. After a moment, Lee Jae-do looked up and calmly looked at Mr. President's dark and tired face.
"I know what you want to say." President Pabre frowned slightly and said, "This young man is not an ordinary person. He is the successor personally chosen by the General. He is a hero in the hearts of the people of the Federation. He is not an ordinary person. You can't just casually kill him."
Lee Jae-do frowned slightly and was about to raise his objection.
President Pabre raised his hand to stop him and continued to explain in a deep voice, "If he dies like this, aren't you worried that the soldiers in the army will be suspicious and disheartened?"
"And because of the Parliament Hill and Lake, those families have already begun to be wary of us. If Xu Le really dies, Lady Tai and the old people like Liyuan Palace will definitely use this as an excuse to do something that we don't want to see."
"The most important thing is." Mr. President stood up and lowered his head to adjust the bow tie on his neck. He calmly said, "Before the operation just now, I received a call from Director Cui. The Federal Central Computer has already issued the third sequence of security warnings. This warning is aimed directly at … Xu Le."
He raised his head and narrowed his eyes slightly. "This is the problem of the first sequence of security that you have been investigating. I have been thinking, if the Federal Central Computer believes that Xu Le is so important to the Federation, then it would be the greatest irresponsibility to the Federation for us to casually end his life."
General Lee Jae-do silently thought for a moment. He smiled and shook his head. After whispering a few words, he left the study of the official residence with Du Shaoqing.
The two wooden doors of the study had long been broken. The curtains that were tied to the door lock by Xu Le with professional skills did indeed firmly secure the position of the lock. However, there was no way to prevent the special forces from directly smashing two large holes in the door.
President Pabre sat behind the desk. Looking at the two holes and the clear and sharp old wood stubble, he unconsciously frowned and fell into a strange silence.
He was the most powerful man in the Federation. However, when he sat alone in the study and could no longer see the young man he had always felt familiar with, for some reason, he felt a little lonely.
The lonely silence lasted for a long time until Bryn, the director of the office, walked in cautiously.
President Pabre didn't seem to hear what he said clearly. He subconsciously nodded and then got up to leave.
Before leaving the study, he looked at the cup of jasmine tea on the table and suddenly stopped. He picked up the already cold tea and took a big sip. He felt a lot calmer.
…
…
Mr. President pushed open the bedroom door but was greeted with a loud slap in the face. He was a little tired and didn't react. He only had time to slightly move his body so that the angry and disappointed palm hit the bottom of his face. Then, when the palm fell again, he forcefully grabbed the other person's hand.
"What are you doing?" President Pabre stared into his wife's eyes and asked in shock.
"Xu Le is a good young man. You can't do this!"
The President's wife's face was full of tears. Her makeup was a mess, revealing the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. It was very obvious that she didn't sleep at all tonight. She lowered her voice and cried out with great pain, "He was caught by you to save you. Are you letting him down? Are you letting your conscience down?"
President Pabre felt a numbing sensation surge into his mind. He stared angrily into his wife's eyes and roared like an enraged lion, "You don't understand anything! You don't understand!"
"What don't I understand?" The President's wife angrily pulled back her hand and said sorrowfully, "You know Lee Jae-do's personality. Back then, I cooked noodles for you every night. I also know his personality. He will definitely kill Xu Le immediately."
"He will kill him immediately!"
President Pabre furrowed his brows tightly. His brows were like the Chinese character Sichuan, like a river with an unknown destination. He knew that his wife was telling the truth, and he didn't want to think about whether he was pretending not to know or tacitly admitting that this had happened.
At this time, the President's wife didn't notice that their poor autistic daughter was staring at them from the door.
Padele's light brown eyes were filled with sadness and disappointment. She was no longer innocent.
