Henry was dumbfounded. He looked at his boss in disbelief. His boss had spent a lot of effort to capture the key person, but he was going to release him at this time.
“boss？ What did you say? Are you kidding? "
Stephen said angrily, "Do I look like a joker? I said to let him go. You talk to that guy. It's not that easy for him to get out. You know what I mean, right? "
Stephen spoke righteously, but his eyes shone with intelligence. He peeked at Henry, and soon, Stephen discovered that something was wrong with Henry's body. His limbs seemed to want to move.
Stephen, who studied psychology, immediately understood that this guy wanted to run away immediately. Obviously, the Chinese inside might have bribed him.
Henry realized that his boss was very straightforward. Henry had been with Stephen for a long time, so he knew a little about Stephen's habits.
In the past, if he caught a key person, Stephen would ask for a lot of money, usually starting from five million. It seemed that this time, the rules could not be broken.
Just now, Jiang Cheng said that he would give him ten million. Henry was usually very timid, and he knew Stephen's temper very well. Although this guy looked kind, he was actually very evil. He had blackmailed people many times.
Now that Stephen said to let him go, of course, Henry had to do it. He immediately rushed to the basement and came to Jiang Cheng.
Henry was not a fool. Since Stephen had decided to let him go, of course, he had to do it. However, he could still earn five million out of the ten million. He could not let Jiang Cheng know about this, so he could only lie to him first.
"You said you'll give me ten million to let you go?" Henry asked, pretending to be profound.
Jiang Cheng did not expect that the little foreigner would come back after a short time. This time, Jiang Cheng could not help but feel happy. It seemed that the power of money was universal in this world.
"Yes, I keep my word. Ten million, let me go. Of course, you have to let my brother go too!"
"No problem. Give me your account number. I'll transfer the money now and arrange for you to leave immediately. Hurry up, or you won't be able to make it!"
Of course, Jiang Cheng was happy to buy his freedom with ten million. He immediately began to give his account number. On the other side, Henry had already taken out his phone and logged into his account.
Just as the two of them were about to enter the password, the door was suddenly opened from the outside. Both of them were startled and looked at the door.
Henry only saw Stephen standing at the door with an unhappy and serious expression. Stephen walked to Henry, took the phone from his hand, and said coldly, "Henry, I just received a report on my way. It said that you talked to of of of this guy for a long time after I left. Do you want to take the ten million and run?"
Henry didn't expect Stephen to see through him and deliberately bomb him. Henry immediately panicked. As a spy, he quickly realized that he was being watched. He was too careless at that time, and the house was under strict surveillance.
No matter what he said or what he did, it would be recorded by the camera. Stephen already knew what Jiang Cheng had said to him.
"B * stard, I've told you that you are not mature enough. There are some things that you can't do. Get out of here now!"
Henry left without even asking for his phone. In an instant, only Jiang Cheng and Stephen were left in the cell.
Stephen walked to Jiang Cheng and said leisurely, "Jiang Cheng, I just talked to the Americans, and they are very interested in you. However, I am a very reasonable person. We don't have a good relationship with the Americans, but we don't have a good relationship with the Chinese either. You have committed a crime in my territory, so of course I have to take care of it. Now I'll give you two choices. One, you help me with one thing, and I'll let you go. The second, if you don't agree to help me, you will continue to be locked up here. I'll continue to bargain with the Americans and exchange you with them. Which one do you choose?"
Jiang Cheng replied without hesitation, "Tell me the first one!" "Well, you're a straightforward person.
I like people like you. You're straightforward. I'll be honest with you. The burden on our shoulders is very heavy. There was a very serious terrorist attack in Paris this year. I believe you must have seen it on TV. I only have a small request for your help. If you help me catch one of the eight leaders of the ISIS organization, I can let you go, but your brothers must stay here. When you bring their heads or live ones to me, I will let them go! "
"I choose the second one!" Jiang Cheng chose the second one without hesitation. The first one was too difficult. Not to mention whether he could complete it or not, just finding the eight leaders would be a headache.
ISIS was so powerful in the Middle East. This had a lot to do with the local international situation. Jiang Cheng was not stupid. It was not a big deal to kill a few small fries. If he really wanted to fight against a boss-level character, it was basically equivalent to looking for death. How could he fight against a military team when he was so weak? This was simply an impossible task.
"Mr. Jiang, don't be in such a hurry to answer me. I'll give you a year's time. Within this year, you'll be provided with good food and drinks. Other than losing your freedom, you can have anything you want. After a year, if you still can't agree to my conditions, then I can only send you to God, or hand you over to the Americans in exchange for more practical interest!"
"It's up to you. If you want to fight or kill today, come at me. Since I, Jiang Cheng, have embarked on this path, I don't plan to have a good ending!" Jiang Cheng directly rejected Stephen's conditions without thinking. Today, when he was caught and brought here, Jiang Cheng was already prepared to give up his life. However, Jiang Cheng knew very well what kind of person he was. The country would not come to save him. Even if someone came, it would be to kill him, not to save him.
When Stephen heard how resolute Jiang Cheng was, he felt uncomfortable in his heart!
He did not expect that the guy in front of him was not only famous, but also capable. Even his bones were so f * cking hard. At this point, if it was an ordinary agent, he would have known that he was in a desperate situation. There was no choice at all. If he wanted to live, there was only one way, and that was to surrender.
The agents understood this very well. Stephen knew this very well. Jiang Cheng also knew this very well. Stephen was sure that Jiang Cheng would not be so stubborn. At this juncture, if he was really stubborn, he would definitely choose to commit suicide.
This was what agents who had reached a high degree of loyalty would do. However, there was another situation where agents did not resist, but did not speak and remained silent. This kind of people was easy to deal with. They were just waiting for the higher-ups to negotiate with them in order to fight for a better price for their future.
To put it bluntly, this was just a deal. However, Stephen could not understand Jiang Cheng's current behavior.
.....
At this time, in another part of Paris, Lehr was sitting together with a China Chinese-American.
"Director Lehr, we came with sincerity. Our chief has already said that Comrade Jiang Cheng is very important to us. As long as you agree to let him go, we can discuss anything!"
He Xiang sat opposite Lehr and spoke English quickly. This time, he was ordered by his father to come to Paris to get Jiang Cheng back. This was a very important matter. General He had told him everything. As long as it did not involve the country's tactical and strategic principles, he must agree to any conditions. He must get Jiang Cheng back first!
This was He Xiang's first time going abroad to do this kind of task. This time, he used his personal name, not the official name. In this case, the official name must not be used. It was best to contact this kind of thing privately!
Lehr did not expect the son of the China General to give him such a difficult question. Jiang Cheng was now locked up in their prison. This was a big fish that they had caught with great difficulty. They could not let him go just because a person from China came. At the very least, they had to fight for some substantial benefits!
Although China and France were partners, they were two countries. Every family had their own scriptures, let alone a country.
However, now that they had come to the door, he had to answer this question. If he rejected the request of the General's son, it would not be good. It would greatly affect the relationship between the two countries, as well as some of General He's policies towards France.
If General He suddenly voted against some important policies, then it would be over. At that time, the president would blame it on him, saying that he had wrongly arrested Jiang Cheng and caused a conflict between the two countries.
"Mr. He, regarding the fact that your country's agent was arrested in Paris, we are also deeply sorry. However, this Jiang Cheng went to the nightclub in China City and killed Shen Fei, the president of the Paris Triad branch. Now the Triad is looking for him all over Paris. If he is released, then the people of the Triad will come to kill him. At that time, the public security of Paris will have a big problem!"
Lehr thought for a long time before he came up with a reason that was not really a reason. Shen Fei was killed by a grenade from Jiang Cheng. This matter had already made the headlines of the Paris Daily. Everyone in Paris knew that the president of the Triad was killed in his nightclub.
Now the entire Paris Triad branch was in a mess. When Shen Fei was still around, the Triad was still internally stable. Now that Shen Fei was dead, the four most powerful henchmen under him began to stand up.
The four henchmen were called Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. These four people called themselves after the four mythological beasts that guarded the four directions in ancient China.
The four henchmen were all direct descendants. The four of them listened to the president's orders and followed him to conquer the world. Now that the president was dead, the four elders naturally considered a very important problem at this time. Who would take over as the next president?
According to the century-old rule, the president should have been chosen to take over as the president at the beginning. However, the four elders' power and status were about the same. Now, everyone wanted to be the president and have a taste of what it was like to be the boss.
The four of them were not convinced by each other. The president's funeral had not yet been held, and the whole of Paris had already begun to stir.
