Chapter 414: Rage

Outside the emergency room.

Jiang Chen sat silently in the chair with a gloomy expression on his face.

No one dared to approach him other than the soldiers in kinetic skeletons. The fluid-looking armor covered their chest, and the sleek helmet shielded their head. The soldiers with rifles on full alert protected him in the middle. They examined anyone approaching with sharp eyes… If anyone dared to approach in the first place.

An assassination in public.

With an accident like this in broad daylight, Ivan didn't say anything and handed in his emblem himself, but Jiang Chen tossed it back at him.

Ivan was not to blame. New Moon Island was hundreds of kilometers away from Coro Island. From start to finish, the whole incident took place in ten minutes. The mercenaries entered the border disguised as tourists, and the weapons and equipment they used were all smuggled into Xin with fishing boat marked with Xin's flag.

Although Jiang Chen was furious, he didn't blame anyone. Unleashing his anger on his people was the most foolish and useless choice.

The doctors and nurses in the hospital passed him anxiously, fearing to anger the demigod that is clearly fuming.

Then, a soldier with a rifle turned from the corner and stopped in front of Jiang Chen. He leaned forward and whispered.

”Four pedestrians wounded; one person pronounced died in the hospital. Eight police wounded; two pronounced died in the hospital; four police died because of C4 explosion…”

The cold casualty numbers didn't stir any emotion in Jiang Chen's heart. After the soldier finished, he only said emotionlessly.

”Who's the perpetrator?”

”Reliable evidence indicated that the perpetrator is Arrow Military Company. Xin's Ministry of Foreign Affairs already protested against the Madagascar government to punish the perpetrator…”

But everyone knew that these protests were useless. It was not that Madagascar didn't want to take care of these problems, but because their military force would not even win against the battle-trained soldiers.

Because of this, the emerging nations maintained the stance of keeping an eye open and an eye closed to the illegal militants' misdeeds internationally. As long as they didn't cause trouble domestically, they would not question their legality.

”I'm talking about the actual perpetrator.”

”…Sorry, we didn't manage to capture anyone alive. But the boat fled in the direction of country F's territory, and our boats were blocked by F's coastal guards at the border.” The soldier lowered his head.

The fishing boat that released the helicopter immediately fled to Xin's border. Although New Moon Island sent out fast boats to chase them, when they escaped into country F's borders, Celestial had to stop pursuing.

Country F's coastal guard freely allowed the militants to enter. It was almost certain that country F was the perpetrator behind this kidnap mission. The only problem was the lack of evidence, and it was virtually impossible to find proof hiring mercenaries to do the dirty deeds.

Jiang Chen closed his eyes.

He was reflecting on his mistake.

The army stationed at New Moon Island could protect Xin like a steel fortress, but he ignored the work in intelligence. Willie society's spy already reminded him, but he didn't think too much of it. Only till now did he realize the severity of the problem. Xin's national security was as penetrable as a piece of paper. And the immigration policy would continue to deteriorate the security of the country. He somehow overlooked this problem before.

He must establish an intelligence department fast before the national security worsens.

Ayesha…

The corner of his eye glared at the closed doors. Jiang Chen felt twisting pain in his heart.

[Fool, why were you trying to prove yourself with wounds… so what if a few rats ran away?]

At the corner, Zhang Yapin with flowers walked over.

He looked at Jiang Chen face full of gloom and let out a sigh.

”Tulips. Help me give these to the wounded. Sorry…”

”I'll form a national security department as soon as possible,” Jiang Chen said expressionlessly.

Zhang Yapin paused, sighed.

”That would be best.”
