Usually this position is occupied by Uncle Sam's confidant.
It can be said that one person is inferior to ten thousand people.
Second only to the Vice President.
The two lieutenant generals of the National Defense Department are military personnel.
The representative is naturally Sam's military.
The lower-ranking officials are probably these two.
He has no military power and is just a civil servant sitting in an office.
At this point, they had been waiting for several minutes.
The protagonist Chu Zihang had not appeared yet, which made several people frown.
Only Vice President Jonathan was watching his breath, savoring his coffee from time to time.
He looked very calm.
Director Pierce glanced at Vice President Jonathan, his eyes moving slightly.
Then, he smiled and said, "Mr. Vice President, you don't seem to be in a hurry?"
“Is it useful to be anxious?”
Jonathan looked up at the smiling Pierce and said, "We have something to ask of you. The master hasn't arrived yet, so we can only wait."
"If you can't wait, you can leave first."
"I'll just go and tell the president."
"Mr. Vice President, you are such a joke. How could I not wait?" Pierce said with a smile.
"So, what's the rush?" Jonathan shrugged.
"..."
Pierce moved his mouth but said nothing.
But he cursed in his heart: Old man Jonathan!
This old guy is so cunning.
According to the joint research of the FBI and the CIA, Vice President Jonathan definitely accepted benefits from Umbrella Corporation.
And it is very likely that Umbrella Corporation is the biggest umbrella in the United States.
Whenever something happens with Umbrella, it is Vice President Jonathan who sends people to deal with it.
Including discussions on how to deal with the Umbrella Corporation. Many people supported suppressing the Umbrella Corporation, but he was the first to vote against it.
Then there are those people in the Senate, including the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who are actually protected by bribery and umbrellas.
In this situation.
George Herbert, the president of the United States, was also powerless.
In the end, they had no choice but to agree not to suppress the Umbrella Corporation and even to cooperate with it.
Most importantly, they also discovered that the umbrella of protection had already reached the top levels of the U.S. federal government.
The Senate, in particular, has the power to impeach the president.
The terror of Umbrella.
At this moment, George Herbert, the President of the United States, felt a shock.
If this continues, the entire United States will be controlled by Umbrella.
As the President of the United States, George Herbert naturally could not sit idly by.
He has always asked his trusted aides, CIA Director Pierce and FBI Director Adam, to jointly investigate senior officials in the federal government who are associated with Umbrella.
Do not check, I don’t know, I’m scared.
It is unbelievable that Vice President Jonathan could be bribed by Umbrella Corporation.
Except for him, the president.
The others are basically the umbrella's people, so he is the only outsider?
Oh my god, absolutely not!
The United States belongs to America.
It does not belong to the umbrella, so George Herbert has been trying to find a way to clean up the inside.
This attack gave him hope.
Secretly communicated with the Freemasons.
Find a way to resolve the threat posed by Umbrella Corporation.
Chapter 269: Pierce's Question, Chu Zihang Refuses to Answer
In the reception room.
Just when the atmosphere was becoming a little subtle, the door of the reception room was pushed open with a bang.
The first to walk in were two NOCS security personnel, nearly two meters tall, with strong builds that made their suits bulge out.
The two white bodyguards glanced sharply at the people in the reception room.
Then they stood with their hands behind their backs on either side of the door, motionless like two door gods.
Jonathan, Pierce and the others' eyes moved slightly, with different expressions.
The founder of Umbrella Corporation made a grand appearance in a high-profile manner.
at this time.
A burst of dense footsteps came!
Immediately afterwards, Chu Zihang, wearing a navy blue custom-made suit, walked into the reception room with White Ghost, Snake Eyes, Victor and others.
Jonathan, Pierce and others immediately looked over.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Chu Zihang walked into the reception room and spoke to the Sam's senior executives in the reception room with an apologetic smile.
Being late is one thing, it's just to show off one's power.
Compliments are another matter.
As the saying goes, when you see people, you talk about people, but when you see ghosts, you talk about ghosts.
"Mr. Chu, you are very busy, so we didn't have to wait long." Jonathan said with a smile.
Pierce looked at Jonathan deeply and said nothing.
The two lieutenant generals of the National Defense Department also chose to remain silent.
As representatives of the military, they were just there to go through the motions and ask about the attack.
In the end, it was Jonathan and Pierce who made the final decision.
They are the protagonists.
Chu Zihang smiled and went straight to the main seat and sat down.
"Victor, have the servant bring in a cup of hot coffee for these distinguished guests."
"Yes, boss."
Victor nodded and glanced at the security guard at the door.
An Bao understood what he meant and immediately called the servant waiting at the door.
The servant had already prepared hot coffee and immediately pushed the cart into the living room to serve steaming hot coffee to the people.
Chu Zihang looked at Jonathan, Pierce, and the others and said, "I wonder why these senior officials from the federal government have come here so suddenly to visit?"
"Mr. Chu, last night's attack was a negligence of our federal government, and you were almost in danger."
"I came to your manor today to express my sincere apology to you on behalf of the federal government."
Jonathan said, standing up and bowing to Chu Zihang.
"Mr. Vice President, you're here to do more than just apologize, right?"
Chu Zihang played with the lighter in his hand, raised his eyes slightly and looked at Jonathan, with a playful smile on his lips.
"Mr. Chu, of course an apology is our main purpose." Jonathan said apologetically.
"hehe."
Chu Zihang chuckled. Could it be like this? !
Uncle Sam is not one to apologize.
Pierce was a little fed up with Jonathan's servile attitude, so he interrupted, "Mr. Chu, excuse me, can I ask you a question?"
"can."
Chu Zihang shrugged and said, "What do you want to ask?"
Pierce stared at Chu Zihang and asked in a questioning tone, "Excuse me, Mr. Chu, are you aware that federal government law stipulates that neither civilians nor capitalists can possess weapons of mass destruction?"
"Why did you install the Vulcan anti-aircraft weapon on your estate? Doing so is a serious violation of federal government law."
Chu Zihang stared at the aggressive Pierce with a smile and said, "Excuse me, can I refuse to answer?"
Pierce's tone was somewhat unreasonable. "Mr. Chu, are you refusing to answer because you feel guilty?"
"Chief Pierce, your question is a bit excessive. Mr. Chu is not a suspect, but a victim."
"And every citizen of the United States has the right to refuse to answer any irrelevant questions."
Jonathan frowned and interrupted Pierce's questioning.
"Mr. Vice President, I'm doing my duty," Pierce retorted.
"What responsibility? Let me be clear, your CIA only provides foreign intelligence and has no domestic law enforcement authority."
"This is an FBI matter. You are exceeding your authority."
Jonathan retorted bluntly, his tone becoming a little more serious.
Making things difficult for your boss in front of you.
Holy shit, what does that mean?
As if I don't exist?!
Perhaps what Jonathan said does make some sense.
Pierce's expression was uncertain for a while, and finally he smiled and said, "Mr. Chu, I'm sorry."
"It's my professional habit. I hope you don't mind."
"Mind? Haha, of course not."
Chu Zihang smiled, then changed his tone and said, "But..."
"People who talk to me like this have basically gone to see God."
As soon as these words came out.
Pierce's smile froze, and a hint of unknown meaning flashed in his eyes.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
In the end, it was Jonathan who broke the awkward atmosphere of the sudden silence.
"Mr. Chu, the purpose of our visit today is not only to apologize, but also to discuss some overseas security cooperation with your company."
"As for cooperation, our Umbrella Company has dedicated liaison personnel, so there is no need to talk to me." Chu Zihang shook his head and said.
"Mr. Chu, the amount involved is huge, so I want to talk to you." Jonathan smiled and said.
Chu Zihang's eyes moved and he asked, "Oh, how much is the amount?"
"Two billion Mi swords, and also involving some cooperation in defense equipment." Jonathan made a gesture.
