Chapter 1,298 Warning From the Opposition

At ten o'clock in the morning, Zhang Yaping's chief of staff visited Jiang Chen's villa.

Because there were guests coming, Lilith finally left the sofa and went to the balcony wearing the phantom helmet.

Xia Shiyu is currently working in the Future Man Building, and Natasha went to the embassy as usual. As the only hostess of the villa who did not go out, Ayesha made a cup of black tea for each of them, and then stood behind Jiang Chen.

The tall and lanky chief of staff seemed quite reserved in his attitude.

After the previous chief of staff of the Presidential Palace resigned, this is the first time for the new chief of staff to visit here on behalf of the president. He had greeted Jiang Chen before at President Zhang's inauguration dinner, but this was the first time for such a formal exchange.

After taking a seat on the sofa in the living room, the chief of staff first explained his purpose.

"President Zhang was on a diplomatic visit to a South American country and couldn't come in person, so I came on his behalf."

"I know." Jiang Chen smiled, looked at the chief of staff and said, "Don't be so nervous, just treat it as your own home."

The chief of staff smiled, relaxed his stiff shoulders slightly, paused for a moment, and then spoke.

"It's like this. At the Tokyo Olympics in August this year, we expect to send 210 athletes to Tokyo to compete. Regarding whether to attend the opening ceremony, President Zhang would like me to seek your opinion."

Under normal circumstances, whether leaders go to attend the opening ceremony also reflects to a large extent the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Zhang Yaping usually asked Jiang Chen for his opinion on such issues involving diplomatic strategy.

For example, his current visit to South American countries was carried out under Jiang Chen's instruction. On the surface, it was to open up opportunities for New Zealand enterprises in the South American market. In fact, it was to pave the way for Xinghuan Trading's global power grid to enter the back garden of the United States.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and spoke softly.

"I don't have any objections. Since they are actively seeking to join the Earth Defense Alliance recently and have corrected the mistakes they made, we might as well make some remarks."

After hearing Jiang Chen's words, the chief of staff was slightly startled, and then he also laughed.

"I understand what you mean."

"Is there anything else?" Leaning on the sofa,

Looking at the chief of staff, Jiang Chen asked in a relaxed tone.

"One more thing," he nodded, and the chief of staff's expression became a little serious, "just two hours ago, we secretly met with the confidant sent by the Colombian opposition leader at the New Zealand Embassy in Ecuador."

Before the economic growth brought by the global power grid of the Star Ring trade and the empty promise of the space elevator, Ecuador can be said to be the only South American country that is friendly to the new country and the Star Ring trade. Jiang Chen was not surprised that members of the Colombian opposition were able to successfully enter Ecuador to meet with the visiting delegation from New Zealand.

What really surprised Jiang Chen was that the Colombian opposition would choose to contact them during this sensitive period.

"Oh?" Jiang Chen frowned slightly, "What did he say?"

"He brought a warning from the Colombian opposition," the chief of staff said, looking at Jiang Chen solemnly. "The CIA is planning a murder against President Zhang. According to the intelligence he provided, a Mexican drug lord and a American Colombians will be involved in the murder, and are expected to carry out the murder when the new delegation arrives in Colombia, and blame it on Colombian conservative forces."

After listening to the chief of staff's words, Jiang Chen's pupils dilated with surprise, and he turned to look at Ayesha behind him.

Facing his questioning gaze, Ayesha shook her head slightly, indicating that she had not received any news about this.

Turning his attention back to Mr. Chief of Staff, Jiang Chen tapped his index finger on the armrest of the sofa and fell into deep thought.

CIA is planning to murder President Zhang, which is a very serious accusation.

If true, a bad move could even trigger a war between the two countries.

However, there were two doubts that Jiang Chen couldn't figure out.

Why did the Colombian opposition get the information in advance when even the ghost agents were not aware of it?

If the intelligence is true, then another question arises, why did the CIA choose this time to attack the leader of the new country?

Could it be that the Colombian opposition is lying? To prevent contact between the new country and the current Colombian government?

This is indeed a possibility, and the possibility is not small.

After all, the life and death of the Colombian opposition depends entirely on Star Ring Trade's attitude towards Colombian officials. If there is anyone who least wants to see a New Zealand delegation visit Colombia, it is undoubtedly those who are ready to rise up.

But do they have the guts to lie to themselves?

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

He always felt that things were not that simple.

Seeing Jiang Chen didn't speak, the chief of staff coughed slightly and asked.

"...President Zhang asked me to ask for your opinion on whether to adjust the delegation's visit to Colombia."

Generally, when something like this happens, one would rather believe that it happened than not believe that it didn’t happen. Even if the trip to Colombia is not canceled, the visit time will be adjusted.

However, after pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen's answer was beyond the chief of staff's expectations.

"I will increase the security around him so that he does not have to worry."

"what do you mean……"

"There will be no adjustments to the itinerary."

"This..." Although there was some hesitation, the chief of staff still nodded reluctantly, "Okay."

The meeting is over.

Jiang Chen sent Mr. Chief of Staff to the door.

After waiting for the car from the Presidential Palace to drive away, Jiang Chen looked back at Aisha who was standing at the entrance.

"What do you think?"

"There are too many doubts." Ayesha said softly, "This is an election year in the United States. Even if they want to provoke a war, they will not choose this time. In addition, if it is the Hillary administration, they are now targeting us. The strategy has turned conservative and it is unlikely to make such a risky move."

Jiang Chen nodded.

He and Aisha thought alike.

He didn't think that after facing countless failures, CIA would still be so sure that its plan would not be discovered by ghost agents. They should have fully experienced the power of ghost agents during the spy war that took place in Japan just a few months ago.

Could it be Morgan?

No, that's not possible either.

Although they will become vested interests in the war, this definitely does not refer to a war in which the outcome is uncertain, or which may even cause consequences that they cannot bear.

"I will immediately send people to South America to investigate this matter, and at the same time be responsible for protecting Zhang Yaping's safety." Ayesha said softly.

"Well, I'll leave you with the investigation work. As for President Zhang's safety..." As he spoke, Jiang Chen looked up in the direction of the balcony upstairs in the villa, and a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, "I have something more to say. The right person."
