”I heard you have a close relationship with the Rothschild family?”
”Just in business dealings.”
”That's what we thought. Based on the information we acquired, they sent out an agent to approach you. If you have a close relationship, they wouldn't have this lack of trust. But speaking of that, you allowed that woman to get into your bed?” Natasha's fingers tapped Jiang Chen's shoulder and adjusted his collar.
There seemed to be a layer of meaning mixed between her words; he didn't know if it was jealousy or mockery.
”I drank a bit much that day. Also, I acquired information from her mouth.” Jiang Chen awkwardly looked away.
Indeed, if he was sober, he never would've done something this reckless.
Perhaps…
”For example?” Natasha looked at Jiang Chen, quite intrigued.
”For example, the Golden Apple.” When Jiang Chen spoke, he carefully observed Natasha's pupils. ”They seemed to be searching for something called the Golden Apple. When… we were doing a certain exercise, she asked me the color of the Golden Apple.”
”What color is it?”
”It's not gold.” Jiang Chen shrugged.
When Natasha heard Jiang Chen's words, her eyebrows furrowed and she looked down.
”I provided the information to you. In return, I want you to clarify for me: what exactly is that thing called the Golden Apple?” Jiang Chen zoomed into Natasha's eyes and he used a serious tone.
”Sorry, based on my level, I only know a bit,” Natasha said.
”You're lying.” Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.
”I'm protecting you. You won't gain anything if you know what it is… Even the KGB doesn't have a solid understanding if that thing really exists.” Natasha sighed.
To be honest, it felt suffocating to lie with his eyes open. (1)
Jiang Chen really wanted to tell her that the thing really existed, but the functionality wasn't as good as you thought - it could only receive information at a certain time from a time point in the future through a special communication channel. And right now, he brought the mimicked communication channel to the apocalypse. It was currently sitting in the corner of Lin Lin's lab.
But he obviously couldn't do that.
Although he didn't think Russia would be able to do anything, to avoid unnecessary trouble, that secret was better eternally sunken in the bottom of the ocean.
”Okay, if you insist on keeping it confidential.” Jiang Chen sighed with defeat and ended the topic.
”I hope you won't misinterpret anything…” Natasha looked away, paused, and spoke again: ”Returning to the topic, the Willie Society orchestrated the terrorist attack and used refugees' bodies to fake the identity of the gunmen. Not only in Frankberg, but all of Europe is a mess because of the refugee situation.”
”When did Russia become the world police?” Jiang Chen joked.
”This has nothing to do with the world police. Do you know the beneficiary of this terrorist attack?” Natasha stared at Jiang Chen's eyes.
From Natasha's eyes as well as what he saw in Ber, Jiang Chen already had the answer in mind, but he still chose to ask.
”Who?”
”The Rothschilds.” Natasha gave the answer Jiang Chen expected. ”The Frankberg New Party, Austria Rightwing Party, as well as Fran… They have been betting on the right-wing parties at the start of last year when the refugee problem began to escalate. They are continuously using the media to bring attention to the refugee situation and ignited the fuse at Ber half a month ago.”
”What do they want to do?” Jiang Chen asked.
”Regardless of what they want to do, they're extremely dangerous. Also, not only us, but CIB is also investigating the dog on their leash as well as the financial monster known as the Rothschilds hidden in the public's eyes. If you don't want to be part of the gamble, it's best for you to steer clear,” Natasha said with seriousness.
Jiang Chen met Natasha's solemn expression, gave it a thought, and spoke quietly when he raised his head.
”I'll remember your words.”
