Chapter 264 The Land of Right and Wrong

Chapter 264 The Land of Right and Wrong
Emergency visits are common. When a major crisis occurs or a diplomatic crisis occurs between two countries, an emergency visit is a routine operation.

Emily didn't know how she got on the plane. She was in a daze, and under the gaze of countless people, she boarded the British diplomatic plane, and then arrived at the Paris airport in less than an hour.

Since it is an emergency visit, there must be a reason, and this reason is easy to find. The two countries will hold a meeting on major discoveries in the intelligence system, and that's it.

The information released by the KGB was false, and both Britain and France denied it, so the big mess was covered up.

As for why Gao Yi had full confidence that he was safe before and after boarding the plane, the reason was very simple. The British had a hundred thousand ways to kill him, but as long as he died, everything that happened today would be spread, and the British could only consider the one hundred thousand and first way.

Gao Yi was sent back with a pinched nose, and the matter was over. Yes, MI6 was at fault, but the External Security Service regained its face, and the two sides could join forces to hunt down Iron Fist George in the future, and that was it.

There's just one problem.

The French should have let the turmoil end quietly, but they actually held a welcoming ceremony.

The UK has not yet left the EU, and there are not so many rules for a foreign minister's visit within the EU framework. What's more, it is not a visit by the prime minister or head of state, so there is no need for a welcoming ceremony.

But France really did it.

The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not so ignorant. After all, they will meet each other every day and will inevitably have dealings with each other in the future. Humiliating a neighboring country, which is a big country, to death will make it difficult to carry out future diplomatic work.

But the French Presidential Office was extremely ignorant and didn't give any face to a diplomatic visit. Why did the people in their Presidential Office have to host such a visit? Well, it's fine if they want to host him, but why did they roll out the red carpet and have a guard of honor? What is this?
As a great country, why do the French want to disregard diplomatic etiquette?

The Foreign Minister had roared in his heart countless times, but after the plane's gangway was set up and Gao Yi and Emily got off the plane one after another without forcing him to go down first, the Foreign Minister finally understood the French's intention.

The red carpet and music were not meant to welcome them.

Gao Yi did not let the four British bosses get off the plane, which was to leave them with something to wear.

It was not that Gao Yi was willing to leave the British with some underwear, but the key point was that some people on the French side ran around and tried their best to persuade them, and the Elysee Palace finally gave up reluctantly letting the four British ministers get off the plane and gave up this rare opportunity to walk the big guy away.

So it’s not really that Gao Yi is kind-hearted, but that the French are considering the long-term.

But although we missed the last opportunity to humiliate the British, we must at least show some appreciation to the heroes who returned triumphantly.

The result was that the Elysee Palace sent people to roll out the red carpet, play music, and send out the guard of honor to welcome the triumphant warriors.

The national anthem was not played, but mounted guards were sent to wait at the airport.

Gao Yi got off the plane and saw this scene. It was impossible for him to say that he was not proud, and it was also impossible for him to say that he was not happy.

However, Gao Yi still needs to think carefully about what to say next.

He couldn't just say that he was just messing around. Telling the truth would damage his image. He had to say that everything was under control and everything was planned and premeditated.

The British plane left without even waiting for Gao Yi and his team to leave. As soon as Gao Yi and his team got off the plane, the plane immediately turned around and flew back to Britain.

Then Gao Yi and Emily got into a luxury car, with motorcycles and police cars leading the way in front, and a long line of cars following behind, and they returned directly to the swimming pool in the most glorious way possible, just like the French.

I didn't go to the Elysee Palace, so I don't know what the French considered. Maybe they thought that doing so would force Britain to go to war.

The convoy returned to the Directorate-General for External Security, where there was a red carpet and a group lined up to welcome them. Marina went forward to open the door herself. The director of the Directorate-General for External Security waited to shake hands with Emily, and with a look of satisfaction on his face he praised her for a job well done. Only then could they say thank you to the real hero of this operation.

"Thank you!"

The director of the General Administration of External Security is a man in his sixties with a big nose. Gao Yi had never seen him before because the director himself did not really manage things, especially not any specific matters.

But it’s different now. This welcoming ceremony was ordered by the president.

If it is not convenient for the president to show up, then it will be inconvenient for him as a director to do so.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you for your contribution."

The director held Gao Yi's hand and shook it back and forth for a few times, then he turned around, made a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile: "Come in, please."

Marina just hugged Emily with relief, and then she didn't say anything to Gao Yi, but looked at Gao Yi as if she was twenty years younger.

"I'm sorry that I failed to complete the most important task."

The most important task is to break Iron Fist George's legs.

But after going there, he went in and out of MI6 several times, fought and made trouble again and again, but in the end he still didn't get to see Iron Fist George.

Of course, Gao Yi was just being polite and modest. It was impossible for him to break Iron Fist George's legs.

There is a welcome banquet, no matter what time it is at night. After a tiring day, the hero returns. Wouldn't it be appropriate not to have a grand welcome ceremony? Wouldn't it be appropriate not to let the hero have a good meal?

At worst, the dinner can be changed into a party, or even a celebration party.

At this occasion, it was OK that Lin Xianghua and Feng Biao, who were seriously injured and unable to move, did not attend. Lucy and Luca, who were able to move, did not attend either. The main reason was that there were too many people at this occasion and it was inconvenient.

Because this was a very small but very high-level semi-official and informal celebration meeting, if someone hadn't strongly dissuaded him, the president would probably have come in person.

It was not to give face to Gao Yi, but mainly because I was happy. I can't say that a century-old national humiliation was wiped out in one day, but I let out the anger that I had been holding for hundreds of years. It was really refreshing and I had to celebrate.

From Napoleon's victory at Waterloo to this day, the French have finally achieved a great victory with the help of a second foreigner.

A victory that cannot be seen in the light is also a victory, just as a failure that is concealed is also a failure.

"Congratulations and thank you."

Gao Yi was holding a glass of red wine. After a whole night, his glass was still half full.

But when Marina came up with the glass of wine to congratulate him, Gao Yi definitely couldn't keep the glass of wine any longer.

He clinked glasses with Marina, then Gao Yi drank the red wine in the glass.

"Tonight, you can ask for anything, and I will definitely satisfy you."

Marina's eyes were seductive, and her forty-something years seemed to be an advantage to her. She was like an apple that ripened on a tree, rather than an apple that was picked unripe and then transported a long distance to be delivered to the customer.

It’s a pity that Gao Yi didn’t drink enough wine.

"Is it true that you can ask for anything?"

"real."

"Very good. I have offended Britain badly this time. Can you find a way to send us to a safe place and let us get through the difficult times ahead safely?"

Gao Yi took off his pants with an expectant look on his face and farted.

This was something that had already been agreed upon and was already in progress. France provided a safe place for Gao Yi and his group to take refuge, but no one knew why Gao Yi made such an unnecessary request.

Marina took a deep breath and smiled, "Okay."

As adults, there is no need to explain it so clearly. Marina has given clear instructions, but Gao Yi rejected Marina's invitation in an implicit way. What else is there to say? Does Marina have no shame?

But Gao Yi still said seriously: "You may not understand what I mean. This is what I think. After such a commotion in the UK, the British will not be satisfied even if they kill me. Now it is no longer possible for me to hide in France. We have to leave France."

At this time, Marina began to think that Gao Yi might be overthinking, but he did not reject her kindness.

"I don't think it's necessary. France is safe enough. No matter what the British want to do, they can't hurt you."

Gao Yi believed that Marina was telling the truth, but he had his own concerns.

"But what about the future? We will be here for at least a few months, which is enough time for the British to investigate us. We can't hide here forever. When we leave, we will face the most severe retaliation from the British."

Marina took a sip of red wine, thought for a moment, and said, "So you want to leave now?"

"Yes, my request is to leave immediately, leave right away, but it must be done under the premise of safety."

If you don't think about the future, you will have immediate worries. You can be lazy and focus on recuperating, but you will have to worry about Britain's retaliation in the future.

Since it is impossible to play for France, I might as well leave cleanly and leave earlier than originally planned.

But where to send them is indeed a problem.

Marina thought for a moment and said, "Is there anywhere you want to go?"

“If I could, I’d like to go to America.”

Marina grinned, and Gao Yi could only smile along, but Marina said in a teasing tone: "Have you forgotten why you hid in France? Please, at this time, you still plan to take a few wounded people to hide in the United States? Don't dream, you only have two choices now, one is a country that can protect you, and the other is a country that the CIA and MI6 will not pay attention to. There are only these two places. Otherwise, you will be caught wherever you go."

Well, it seems that the French are still not capable enough.

Gao Yi fell into deep thought.

Marina suddenly said: "In fact, you can really stay in France. You know, the door of France is open to you."

But Gao Yi just didn't want to stay in France, let alone join the Directorate-General for External Security. If it really didn't work, he might as well stay in Saudi Arabia, where he had a higher status.

So Gao Yi didn't respond to Marina's words. He suddenly asked, "What is the place of the country that is not paid attention to?"

Marina seemed a little disappointed. She sighed softly and said, "Africa, Mali, Niger, or Central Africa, whatever you choose. It's fine as long as you can tolerate the environment there. Now, I just hope you can think it over carefully."
