Chapter 1497 - The Assassination that was Doomed to Fail from the Start (1/2)

In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of an express hotel, a man in a black suit held a pair of binoculars in his hand and looked coldly at the smoky street. When he saw “Iron Man” step out of the trunk of the Luer sedan, his pupils constricted slightly.

He gently placed the binoculars on the table beside him, took out a satellite phone from his pocket, and dialed a number.

Soon, the phone connected. Without any greetings, he spoke concisely.

“Mission failed…”

“Failed? How could it be—”

“We miscalculated. I didn’t expect that the ‘Iron Man’ himself was Jiang Chen…”

“Iron Man?” Inside the presidential suite of a five-star hotel, Rockefeller, who held a glass of vintage red wine in his hand, was taken aback, and he subconsciously asked, “Which Iron Man…”

Just halfway through his words, Rockefeller realized what happened.

He suddenly remembered that the year before last year, Rothschild, together with the North American Jewish Consortium, planned a murder against Jiang Chen and Xin diplomats, and even got the CIB director on board in order to provoke a war between the two countries.

This attack was regarded as the fuse of the direct conflict between Celestial Trade and the Freemasonry, and it also prompted the UA authorities to break up the Jewish consortium. At that time, everyone speculated about who the Iron Man was, and that included Rockefeller and Morgan. However, they had zero leads until now.

“Unexpectedly, it was him…”

Rockefeller’s smile was full of bitterness.

They guessed a long time ago that the steel warrior who often appeared near Jiang Chen was probably a super-soldier trained by Celestial Trade or an AI. However, the reality completely surprised them. The steel warrior turned out to be Jiang Chen himself.

He had disguised himself too well.

“Yes…” The man in black gulped down the dry lump in his throat, then nodded with difficulty, “This is our negligence.”

They were a special intelligence force trained by Rockefeller, mainly made up of former FBA agents or soldiers from the Intelligence Department of the UA Army’s Overseas Forces. It was this force that enabled Rockefeller to stand up against other people. While he was slightly inferior to Morgan in capital management, he was better than the “Emperor of Wall Street” in other aspects.

His ultimate goal was to become the second Rothschild.

After a pause, Rockefeller spoke slowly.

“I heard that there is something called truth-telling serum in Celestial Trade.”

“Yes, it is said that it first appeared in the Ukrainian Civil War.” The man in black nodded.

“The rebel has already lost. You should go back under cover, get Kayn Jay to leave C State, and wait for me in Australia.” After a pause, Rockefeller continued, “I want to discuss something with him. Tell him to meet me in Melbourne.”

Canada was no longer safe. If Jiang Chen was assassinated, he could still stay here and wait for the situation in the UA to return to stability, then he would go back to clean up the mess. But now, assassination was now an unrealistic idea.

Rockefeller did not expect Jiang Chen to not only possess capital and force, but his own combat power was also splendid.

“Ok.”
