Chapter 496: Sealing the Deal (1/2)
After getting the replies, Kai met Marsha again.
”I hope that you feel refreshed after taking a bath.” Marsha smiled.
”Indeed. The fatigue has gone.” Kai nodded in agreement while saying, ”Anyway, the president has agreed to collaborations in the future. However, we would like to know your intention first.”
”Of course. I can send you the contract later and as long as there's a discussion among us, I believe it can be done.”
”Good. You're negotiating it with him. As for the rest, I can agree with a few conditions.”
”A few conditions… May I know about the conditions?”
”First, I don't want to be tailed, so I hope you don't send any spy to French. Also, what I do needs to be covered up.”
”I will manipulate the media for a while. If possible, I would like to know the exact date of the attack, so we can have more preparation.”
”Certainly. I will contact you through Arnaud later. Killing a prime minister is indeed a great sin in front of the law, but I think it's fine as long as someone else kills him, right?” Kai smiled.
”Don't tell me…”
Kai smiled. ”Yes. I want to let whoever behind him kill the prime minister. That's why I need you to pressure him to the brink. If this can't succeed, then I will kill him with my own hand.”
”I understand.” Marsha thought for a moment and asked, ”I'm wondering why do you feel everything is so easy for you? You never suspect me?”
”There's nothing in this room that can escape my ears. I can sense many cameras and recorders in this mansion, but none of them is in this room.”
”…” Marsha fell silent, realizing Kai's ears were more amazing than she thought. With those ears, Kai wouldn't be at a disadvantage, considering the ears could also assist him in telling whether one was lying or not. ”Those ears… I really want to possess them.”
”Trust me, you don't like having these ears.” Kai smiled as he recalled how many times he almost died or wanted to commit suicide because of the unbearable ears. ”Anyway, let's focus on the topic. What is your plan to destroy the prime minister?”
Marsha thought for a moment and raised three fingers. ”There are three steps that will succeed within ten days. First, I will spread the scandals one by one every day, causing a chain reaction from the citizens to lower the prime minister's position.
”After that, I will begin launching my attacks on other Union Members to stop them from interfering in this fight while letting him know that no one would help him. In that case, he would have no choice other than to ask for help from the one who supported him.
”At that moment, you will strike him down along with the other hybrids. I hope you can convince them to get the cure in the US Base because I can safely assume that those people have lost their trust in the Union. And I hope that all of them are under custody because I don't want to deal with the future threat.
”Last but not least, the cover-up. Unless you're doing something too big, I can cover up almost everything. Unfortunately for you, the Union will take the credit for all this, including the corpse of the prime minister and the one behind him.”
”I can agree to the plans, but I need an assurance that your soldiers won't enter the battlefield. I also want you to make sure whether there's another spy in the Union or not.”
”I understand. I will do a thorough investigation after this.”
”Hmm… I don't know why, but I feel like you've got all the benefits this whole time.” Kai tilted his head in confusion. ”Should I say as expected from you? No wonder you're called a prodigy.”
”We're the same. However, both of us are working in a separate line of work, so I am glad that I don't need to fight against you. I'm scared that nothing I've prepared will work against you and your ears.” Marsha shrugged.
Kai chuckled, rose from his seat, and extended his hand.
To show that the two had sealed the deal, Marsha shook Kai's hand with a smile. ”I'm looking forward to our cooperation.”
”Likewise.”
After a long discussion, Kai and Marsha had finally agreed with some terms. As one would expect from a genius in politics, she simply didn't budge unless she got a huge benefit from it.
