Lin Che looked down at Andrew . "Yes, we've been surrounded . We can't get out now . "
Andrew looked at his sister . "I know a place out . "
Lin Che's eyes lit up . "Where?"
"Come with me . "
Qin Hao was still somewhat worried .
Lin Che said, "Now, only we can save him . Besides, we have no other choice too . Either we fight our way out or choose to believe him . "
Qin Hao looked and knew there was no other choice . He nodded his head .
Andrew said, "We often have fights here . So we've prepared a good location for escaping . "
Lin Che believed him .
A person who had frequently faced battles should have experience in this aspect .
Soon, Andrew brought them to a manhole cover . He opened the manhole and jumped in . Then, everyone followed in .
They walked ahead underground, all the way to the outside .
When they saw the sunlight, Qin Hao heaved a sigh of relief .
When Lin Che got out, Andrew asked, "Where are we going now?"
"I'll get someone to send you and your sister for treatment . But we need to go to the President's Office . Since you were able to enter my place discreetly, do you know of any place that we can get closer to the President's Office?"
Andrew thought for a while . "I know a place that you can discreetly get in . But… why do you want to go there?"
Lin Che said, "We're in trouble with your President . You've seen it for yourself . They just sent people to surround us . If we die, you and your sister might not get any treatment . Also, you will get executed immediately for being in contact with us . "
Andrew's face displayed horror . "Is there going to be a fight again?"
Lin Che took in a deep breath . "I don't wish for it to be so . But your President chose to provoke first . I think, this time, it's inevitable . But how it will be will depend on our progress later . "
Andrew sighed . He said, "This used to be a place where we played around . But now, look . How many people are left… Some of my friends I went to school with and played with when I was young have already died, and some escaped… Forget it . I know . I can't look back now . "
He pointed the direction to Lin Che, while she smiled gratefully . With Qin Hao, she walked ahead .
It was a circular, unobstructed manhole cover as well .
"Here, it's here . "
Qin Hao went up first and got the guards to go up as well .
When they reached the President's Office, they found it empty .
"It was still full of people yesterday . How is it like this today…"
Qin Hao was still in shock when he saw someone with a gun . "Who's there? Come out with your hands up . "
Qin Hao immediately took his gun . However, he saw that the person…
"Ah, don't move . It's me, Qin Hao . I'm with Madam . "
It was Gu Jingze's personnel…
That guy relaxed when he saw Lin Che .
"Madam, Assistant Qin, it's good to see you guys . Sir is anxious beyond words . "
With the leadership of this guard, they followed into the President's Office .
It was Lin Che's first time getting into the front . She passed by yesterday and only went to the back . She did not see how the President's Office of this old country looked like .
In the country, she would often go to the Glazed Tile Palace . Being here, she could feel the difference between a big and small country .
But it was still a President's Office, and the atmosphere was solemn .
Gu Jingze was seated inside when he saw Lin Che hurrying over .
"Something just happened . I couldn't find you when I got back . "
Lin Che hugged Gu Jingze .
She wondered if he was in danger as well .
The good thing was, they were both fine .
Lin Che said, "What happened exactly?"
Gu Jingze said, "They got us to come . It's a conspiracy . "
It turned out there was no negotiation . Gu Jingze found out that it was an ambush .
Fortunately, Gu Jingze was prepared when he arrived .
The guards outside were much stronger than theirs . It was not a problem for one to fight off ten . The President had run off upon seeing things getting bad and had temporarily abandoned the President's Office .
Gu Jingze did not dare to leave without seeing Lin Che . He was worried that she was lost and so he stayed back .
Lin Che said, "Seriously… he doesn't even want the President's Office?"
Gu Jingze replied, "Because there are frequent fights and the people change here very often . The President had not been in the position for long and managed to take his office back . It's normal to have it taken away and so, he doesn't really mind . "
Lin Che found it astonishing . After that, she remembered about the plague and quickly said, "Oh yes, we just found out that there's a conspiracy here . "
Lin Che told him everything .
Gu Jingze thought silently . "Perhaps the powers here have already hooked up with the An family . They might have pulled everything together and lured us here intentionally . "
"Then… what should we do?"
"Let's leave first . " Gu Jingze did not want Lin Che to stay around since he was worried about her safety .
"That An family…"
Gu Jingze said, "If the old country wants to work with the An family, then this war is inevitable . "
Lin Che was stunned . Was a war really going to happen?
Meanwhile .
An Beiguo from the An family walked into the old country's President's temporary residence .
"I've told you . Gu Jingze isn't easy to lie to . You guys did not believe me, and now…"
"We didn't expect that the guys he brought would be so powerful . " The President of the old country had just gotten his authority as the newly elected President .
They were working with the An family because the family supported them politically and gave them a fair amount of ammunition support .
"Ah, now we're in a deadlock with the Gu family . I'm afraid we have to fight . " An Beiguo looked up and narrowed his eyes at him . "We need help from your forces . "
The President got a fright and waved his hand frantically . "No way, no way . How can we beat C Nation?"
"Relax, we're quite far from C Nation . They're fighting this long distance . Moreover, there's bound to be someone who will disagree with this fight on an international level . They might not be able to fight . "
"But what if the fight starts…"
"Why? We've supported you with so many finances . If you disagree with activating everyone for the battle, I promise you that I'll let everyone know how you got your power and covered up the plague outbreak . When that happens, your current position, the power you've gained, and the support of the citizens will be gone immediately!"
It was hard to object to this threat .
An Beiguo looked at him with a sinister smile . He thought cruelly, 'Gu Jingze, didn't you want to come? Anyway, we're not afraid of going barefoot and being in a deadlock . But even if our An family wants to die, we'll make your Gu family the scapegoat . We'll make Gu Jingming unable to continue as President with all the prestige . '
