Within an hour, the real source of the email was found. It was from Japan.
But the detailed address could not be found. The other party used a very clever disguise. At most, they could trace it back to the computer that sent the email, but it was just a meat machine.
"True Ancestor, the other party's traces have been cleaned up. We only know that he is most likely in Japan."
After listening to James, Lan Mu nodded. In fact, he could guess that it was Japan. The first victim was a diplomat stationed in Japan.
"If we trace the email the moment it arrives, can we find him?" Lan Mu asked.
James and the FBI director both nodded. If they didn't even have this kind of technology, how could they protect America?
"Understood. Arrange for the Vice President to take over as soon as possible! Keep an eye on the second email from the Grim Reaper. Once it arrives, trace it immediately! "Lan Mu ordered.
For a moment, the FBI was busy. They monitored the situation on the Internet and waited until the Grim Reaper's email arrived to trace it.
In the afternoon, the reporters arrived one after another. The so-called Vice President walked up to the podium with a blank face. He held the Bible in his hand and swore an oath.
When the people saw this, they felt that it was not reliable.
When other people took over the presidency, they were all high-spirited and spoke eloquently.
Why did the Vice President look like he had nothing left to live for?
No one knew that the Vice President was a puppet who was coerced. His role was only to stabilize the situation.
"I solemnly swear that I will faithfully carry out the duties of the President of America. I will do my best to abide by, protect, protect, and abide by the Constitution of America … May God help me …"
The Vice President stuttered as he finished the oath. His expression was not happy at all.
On the contrary, the last sentence, "God help me", was extremely sincere. He really hoped that God would show up and save him.
Facing the reporters and people below the stage, he really wanted to shout the truth of the highest power in America: it was already controlled by the Blood Clan.
But he didn't have the courage to sacrifice himself.
After a bunch of nonsense speech, the reporters felt bored. The speech was too dull. It could be said that it was the most unattractive presidential inaugural speech in history.
After the speech came to an end, a reporter boldly shouted, "Mr. President, how did your predecessor die?"
"Sudden illness, cardiac arrest …" The Vice President, who was now the President, answered in a perfunctory manner.
"As far as I know, the former president doesn't have any heart disease …" The reporters were aggressive.
The new president dealt with all kinds of tricky questions from the media in front of the stage. It was obvious that this president was easy to bully. If they didn't squeeze some information out of him, they wouldn't even know how to write the headlines.
No matter how awkward the president was on stage, Lan Mu had been paying attention to the FBI's news. Not long after, the director reported to Lan Mu.
"True Ancestor! The mail arrived! We're still investigating! The other party is very cunning and is constantly throwing out fake data. However, their hacking skills are only first-rate. We are confident that we can find their location! "
Lan Mu nodded. If he couldn't even catch a hacker, wouldn't he be a good-for-nothing?
"What's the content of the email? Let me see."
Lan Mu's email had already been printed out. He sneered as soon as he saw it.
It was the same format, written in English.
"Your new president is terrible, but I can see that he is a peace-loving person. Let him read the following content, or I will kill him in front of the live broadcast! I will follow the former president! "
"In the name of the president, I will evacuate all foreign military forces in the near future, disband all overseas bases, and transfer back the fleet only for self-defense in the territorial waters. I will use my entire career as president to carry out this proposition. For the sake of world peace, I will never interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. "
"The above statement must be read out in public. If it is not done by 15: 30, you can prepare to be the next president!"
After Lan Mu read it, he tore it up.
Read it out in public? How could it be!
It was useless to say it out loud. It could only represent the president's proposition. It was difficult to implement.
The effect of public opinion would be too great. The new president would be subject to endless doubts. America was now Lan Mu's America. Reading this would be a compromise with the "Grim Reaper."
Lan Mu only planned to use this speech to draw the "Grim Reaper" out from behind the scenes and make him give himself away.
"True Ancestor! We've tracked it down. The other party is in Japan and Nagasaki! "The FBI tracked down the real location of the sender of the email.
Lan Mu happily said: "Very good, where is he in Nagasaki?"
"He used the park's network. Mota Park should be the real location where he used the computer, but we can't confirm his identity."
Lan Mu nodded. It was good to be able to confirm a city, so he had to immediately head to Nagasaki.
But before he left, he suddenly thought that if the newly inaugurated president really died before the broadcast, the public opinion would be equally huge. It might even cause CANC to notice the strange deaths of two presidents in a single day. They might even be able to guess the existence of the erasing anomaly.
"Quick! Print another copy … "
Lan Mu didn't want the president to die right after inheriting the throne. Even if he said that, it would only cause the public to scold him. But if he died, it would definitely cause CANC to investigate. Comparing the two, Lan Mu would rather choose the former.
"I … I will fight for the best interests of the people of the United States in my entire career. I …" The new president stuttered, saying clichés, big words, and empty words. He didn't know about the "Grim Reaper."
But while everyone's attention was focused on the new president, he suddenly clutched his chest with a pained expression.
Lan Mu was shocked. He used his mind power to check the president's body, only to find that his heart suddenly stopped, his mouth was foaming, and he directly fell to the ground dead.
"Damn it! It wasn't time yet! He actually killed him! "
It was now 15: 25. Lan Mu had just ordered someone to hand over the note when the "Grim Reaper" made his move.
During the inauguration speech, the new president died on the spot in front of the live broadcast, causing an uproar among the audience.
This sudden change caused the scene to become chaotic. The Internal Affairs Bureau immediately took control of the scene and secretly took the president's body away.
"Damn it, everything went according to normal procedure. The media just said that the president was too nervous and died of a sudden illness."
Although everyone had been turned into Bloodlings, they were still important members of the country, so their mental fortitude was excellent. They methodically dealt with the crisis of the president's sudden death.
Under Lan Mu's orders, they hid the truth behind the sudden deaths of two consecutive presidents, especially the Grim Reaper's mail.
But Lan Mu also knew that the existence of the anomaly couldn't be hidden anymore.
Two presidents suddenly died on the same day, as well as the deaths of many foreign diplomats, as well as high-ranking military officers from various overseas bases.
All of these strange events were enough to make CANC aware of the existence of the erasing anomaly. Even if they could hide the deaths of high-ranking officials, they couldn't hide the deaths of two presidents.
Lan Mu thought for a bit. Since it couldn't be hidden anymore, he might as well use CANC's spies in the USA to tell them the truth. Those spies were all Bloodlings, after being implanted with the blood poison, they became Lan Mu's spies. Through them, they could provide CANC with any information that Lan Mu wanted them to know.
Not only that, but on the surface, the USA would also blame CANC for this!
James once said that CANC had a few realists, so he might as well say that they were the culprits. After all, there were only two major containment organizations in the world that had this type of erasing anomaly. The USA was currently the victim, and since the USA was the first to sign the Space Agency agreement, CANC wouldn't suspect that the USA knew the culprit.
Furthermore, the possibility of the anomaly being in the USA was also ruled out. After all, how could it kill two presidents and so many high-ranking officials in a row?
If he tried to hide it, it would only make it more obvious. Given the choice of not exposing the fact that the Bloodlings controlled the USA, Lan Mu would rather expose the existence of the erasing anomaly.
Even if it was exposed, it didn't matter. Lan Mu had more information than CANC, if he still couldn't win, then there was no point.
"James, I'll leave the task of negotiating with CANC to you. Make sure to express your indignation at the terrorist act of assassinating a high-ranking official and a president. Make us the victims, and in fact, we are indeed victims"
"In the face of an erasing anomaly, CANC won't be indifferent. Try not to deceive them, just use the truth to mislead them. Just hide the Shinigami's mail and let them search for it all over the world!"
James had negotiated with CANC more than once, so he was very experienced in this area.
Leaving the task to him, Lan Mu felt relieved and rushed to Nagasaki in Japan. He wanted to personally find the guy who called himself the Shinigami.
"This guy seems to hate the USA to the core. He acted before the time was up. Was it because the new president said something wrong?"
Recalling the president's speech, he seemed to have said something like "I will strive for the best interests of the USA people in my career" before he died.
Lan Mu raised his eyebrows. [Was it because of that sentence that angered him?] [Isn't that a bit too sensitive?] [Extremely murderous.]
"Damn it, forcing me to compete with CANC."
"I know you're in Nagasaki, this is enough for me to find you first!"
