General Ji sneered and rejected the proposal “That wouldn’t work, either Shaoheng is still investigating Hong Kangquan, and you’re suggesting that he be handed over to Hong Kangquan for interrogation? You are basically signing his death warrant Or do you ironically want to prove that we arethe hero that stood up against the our own people?”
Speaker Long was especially embarrassed by General Ji’s words “Old Ji, you are quan is in charge of the Secret Service He will not betray our country’s interests for the saquan wished to defect, he would have done so long ago, around the sa defected But you see, has he leaked all our country’s secrets? If he had even the slightest inclination to do so, he would have done it already without having to request my permission to assume command of the central control room For many years he has been the Director of the Secret Service department His annual assess out of the ordinary,” he said
Other than Huo Shaoheng’s allegations against hiquan
