Chapter 395 The fox pretends to be the tiger's power
Jiang Baota glared at Qi Tongtian with his side eyes, but he had to concentrate on driving and signal Qi Tongtian to shut up with his eyes, and his eyes were about to cramp.
But Qi Tongtian didn't understand what he meant at all. He lowered his head and typed a long string of words for Jiang Baota to see.
[Brother, what's wrong with your face? Don't worry, I will never record the general's selection of a concubine in the itinerary minutes. Hey brother, when we went to Fengcheng together, the general's boyfriends couldn't stand each other and would fight over a disagreement. Who would have thought that they get along so well now? From what I heard from their words, it seems that they have formed a group. My God, the general is really good at controlling his husbands——]
Jiang Baota took several glances to read such a long paragraph of words. The more he read, the more his head hurt because of Qi Tongtian's anger.
This idiot, has he forgotten what happened to the last guy who talked behind the general's back? He still remembers what it felt like to have his fingers stuck in his head and flipping it around!
Fortunately, the Bingqiao Residence had appeared at the end of the field of vision, and there was not much time left for Qi Tongtian to talk. Jiang Baota decided to wait for the general to go in for the dinner, and then deal with him properly, so that he could deeply recall the situation at that time, tighten his skin, and learn what it means to be cautious in words and deeds!
Icebridge Residence is the official residence where the Speaker and the First Family live and conduct business, located in the center of Glory City.
The official residence was originally surrounded by a lush forest covering an area of more than 1 hectares. The forest was planted with oak, birch, beech and other trees, which were green all year round. There were also flowers and trees such as crape myrtle, poinciana, kapok and osmanthus. When the flowers bloomed, they were as bright as fire and the fragrance was overwhelming. There were many circular open spaces in the forest, and the carefully maintained forest paths crisscrossed and scattered in a star shape, connecting these open spaces into a network. It is a very famous landscape in the City of Glory.
But now these forests have been completely cut down and covered with thick layers of cement, making them look cold and hideous.
After passing through the concrete ground that was originally a forest, the vehicle slowly slowed down and stopped in front of the canal that runs through the city, ready to undergo the first security check.
The guards, with the emblem of the Glorious City Guard on their armbands, led several explosion-proof dogs towards the vehicles in the convoy.
Qi Tongtian opened the door and got out of the car, standing beside the car ready to cooperate with the inspection. A man who looked like a team leader walked up to him with two guards leading explosion-proof dogs.
The man held an electronic tablet in his hand and said seriously, "How many people are on the bus? Who are they? Do you have an invitation letter? Please get off the bus for inspection and then open the trunk."
Qi Tongtian's face changed. It was his first time to come to Bingqiao Residence. He didn't know there was a step of getting out of the car to check. He had never heard of it before.
He knew that they had to go through three security checks to enter the official residence. Did they have to go up and down three times? How could this be the etiquette for an executive officer who came to the banquet?
He used common sense to feel that this process was wrong. Did the senior officials have to get out of the car and be inspected when entering and leaving the official residence? How could those high-minded officials in Glory City tolerate such treatment? Were they deliberately making things difficult for their general?
Thinking of this, Qi Tongtian said stiffly: "The trunk of our car is for decoration and cannot be opened. The person sitting in the car is the executive officer of Fengcheng, Lieutenant General Ai, the commander of the Fengcheng Guards. He has been invited to attend the executive officer's welcome dinner. Are you sure you want the lieutenant general to get out of the car for inspection? Your equipment and capabilities are not so backward, right?"
The man raised his eyebrows and said sternly, "All people and vehicles entering the Ice Bridge Residence must be carefully inspected. This is for the sake of the Speaker and the safety of the executive officers. The executive officers of other bases have all gotten out of their cars. Why should your Maple City base be treated specially? Is there some secret hidden in your car that cannot be seen by others?"
Qi Tongtian was furious: "What are you talking about!"
The car had been parked for such a long time, and Qi Tongtian had been negotiating with the newcomers outside. Even if the sound insulation in the car was very good, several people noticed something was wrong.
Jing had already disappeared. His voice rang out of thin air in the carriage. He smiled and said, "Sister, I heard it. They want us to get off the car for inspection. Why doesn't today's dinner look like a welcoming party? It looks like an opportunity to set rules for 'everyone'~"
Ai Wanxin chuckled, knowing that the "everyone" he was talking about was probably referring to her.
It seems that the rule that only one person can be brought along should have been specially prepared for her.
He Yang frowned and said, "These guys are using their tricks to torture people again!"
Jiang Baota hurriedly said, "General, I'll go down and take a look."
"No need." Ai Wanxin said calmly, "In that case, we won't go. I'm tired too. Call Xiaotian up and notify all vehicles to turn around."
Jiang Baota was startled and responded subconsciously: "Yes!"
He opened the door and got out of the car, saying loudly to the angry Qi Tongtian: "Get in the car."
The man reached for the holster on his waist and said warily, "Do you want to break in?"
Jiang Baota's eyes were as sharp as a knife. He said in a cold voice, "You may not know that you guard the bridge in Guanghui City every day, but our general just solved the crisis in Shuangcheng and Zhangcheng bases. He arrived in Guanghui City this afternoon. He was exhausted from the journey, but when he thought that this was a welcoming dinner hosted by the Speaker on behalf of the country for the executives of the major bases, he reluctantly took the trouble to come to the banquet."
"Since you are prepared to treat our country's heroes in this way, we will not accompany you."
"I just don't know whether this is your guards' own intention or the Speaker's intention. After our general goes back and has a good rest, I will definitely ask him about it."
"Everyone, get in the car and turn around."
After saying this, he ignored the grim-looking captain of the escort army, got into the car and slammed the door. His entire action was done smoothly and in one go, looking very cool.
Jiang Baota did not close the door when he got off the car, so the three people in the car could hear clearly what he said.
He Yang turned around and looked at him, smiling, "Captain, you're right."
Jiang Baota and Qi Tongtian breathed deeply. Jiang Baota had been so aggressive just now, but now he scratched his head shyly: "General, you won't blame me for taking advantage of the power of others, right?"
He Yang waved his hand nonchalantly: "How could that be? Remember, you will represent our general from now on. No matter where you are, you don't have to be bullied by anyone."
Jiang Baota nodded vigorously and laughed, "Captain He, I have to say it, it feels really good to have the general's support."
He Yang raised his eyebrows arrogantly: "Then you have to get used to this feeling in the future."
Under the incredulous gaze of the escort team, the convoy actually turned around on the spot and drove away in the direction they came from.
Even the Labrador that the little guard was holding looked confused. The little guard asked blankly, "Captain, what...what should we do now?"
The team leader was also in a dilemma. He never expected that the executive officer of Maple City Base was so powerful. He had to quickly call the office of Bingqiao Residence to report the emergency situation there.
Soon, two cars with official residence license plates rushed out as if their butts were on fire and chased in the direction the convoy left.
