Chapter 83 Dangerous Attempt

The bloody plot of remorse, obviously, will not happen in the Norman royal family, which attaches great importance to reputation and face, but this does not mean that everything will be carried out in peace. Shortly after the conversation between Octaveer and Prince Balas, two officers in charge of intelligence found Weiss. They said with a sad face that the news obtained from secret channels showed that the Norman opposition forces were carrying out a terrible assassination operation, trying to kill the queen and Prince Balas. If the matter happened in Bellakass and happened in the federal territory, it would undoubtedly trigger a very terrible international event. The fierce contradictions could completely evolve into war, which made them feel unbearable to be underestimated.

Speaking of which, these two officers are by no means ordinary people. One of them has a surname that Weis is very familiar with, Punk. He is the eldest son of General Punk, and people are used to calling him "Little Punk". Punk is now a lieutenant colonel rank and serves in the Military Intelligence Department, which is not obvious. The other officer is Scarpa, a war hero who is as famous as Weis. He is very brave on the battlefield. He once led a commando to break the enemy's defense line and successfully attacked the enemy's corps command. After the war, he was transferred to the Federal Security Supervision Department, and is known for his harshness and inhumanity.

The nickname of Little Punk is "Ghost", while Scapa is "Judge". One is in the dark, the other is in the light, the other is in the light, and the other is extremely hard. The two of them form a temporary partner, which seems to be a complementary combination.

Under Weiss' argument, the officers agreed to let Octavele join this very meaningful topic - although she was sent by the Secret Service to assist in the security work, she belonged to different departments, and secondly, she was a member of the Grumman family, and some things usually avoided the parties involved and close people.

"Is the news conclusive?"

Octavell asked the first sentence when he came up. Punk and Scarpa looked at each other. The news spread through secret channels was no matter how conclusive it was, it was just news, and there was no direct evidence. She asked this question, and the subtext was "If there was direct evidence, the Normans should be reminded immediately to transfer the engagement ceremony venue or replace it in other ways. If there was no strong evidence, we had to consider how to remind the Normans in appropriate ways."

Judging from the reactions of the two officers, Weiss knew that this matter could not be taken to the table. Even if he wanted to remind the Normans, he could only make indirect measures. As for how they were to do it or ignore it at all, it was impossible for the federal side to grasp. Since Bella Casser was the ground of Lorraine, preventing vicious incidents was also the responsibility of the Lorraine State Government. He thought hard and said to the officers: "I have several ideas, one of which is to alert the snake, deliberately launching searches and tracking and spreading news, so that I can try to break it.

The bad ones think we have set their sights on them, let them throw themselves into danger, stop acting, and take the initiative to evacuate. The second is to use static and keep a close eye on the situation around them, check without disturbing others, find out suspicious people and focus on guarding them. The third is to set up a suspicious array, deliberately making the Normans feel that someone is going to do sabotage so that they can retreat because the destruction action is created by us and it has not been launched, so it can minimize its influence... What do you think?"

After listening to Weiss' suggestion, the two officers opened their eyes at first. According to conventional thinking, they could do nothing and could not make any decisions, especially the strange tricks of using this sword to take a different approach, which was simply incredible. But when you think about it carefully, it was like some bold strategies on the battlefield, which seemed to be life-threatening, but in fact it was not as dangerous as you imagined.

Octavell nodded and said first: "If there is no other way, I think the third option is also a risk-worthy move."

"Then do it! Let the Normans retreat and save us from trouble. That is originally the internal conflicts, and they should solve them themselves." The brave Scapa then clarified his attitude.

"The reason why those opponents of the Norman royal family chose Bella Kasser was to create fierce conflicts to cover up their behavior and seek benefits in the chaos. We cannot let them succeed." Punk agreed, but there was no handle left in his words, which made people admire his sophistication beyond his age.

Because of the arrival of Norman royal members, Belakass had already been on high alert, and this alert was undertaken by the two sides to reach an agreement. Among them, the Normans sent their mysterious and elite internal security forces, and the federal side dispatched the special service forces and armed ombudsmen of the Department of Security. In addition to these elite forces, the original security forces were withdrawn from the front line and turned into external alerts.

On the afternoon of the second day after the Norman Royal Family arrived, there were still a few hours before the ceremony officially began. At the scheduled ceremony site, when the guards from both sides routinely conducted security patrols of all tables, chairs and facilities, the federal side discovered a bomb hidden under the chair. This discovery was like a bolt from the blue, which shocked the personnel responsible for the security at the scene. You should know that this bomb was only one step away from the viewing table for the engagement ceremony. Although the bomb was not very powerful, if an explosion occurred at the ceremony site, not only the queen of the Norman Empire and many guests might be attacked, but the chaos that caused next would also give some planners an opportunity to take advantage of it.

With the appearance of this bomb, the entire Belacass was bathed in the sun, but it seemed to be covered with a thick cloud. Just half an hour later, Weiss, Octavere, Punk Little and Scarpa all appeared in the conference room of the Norman management area. The Norman's general manager, the palace attendant, called the meeting.

The court servant informed everyone of the discovery of the bomb in an extremely angry tone, and accused it of contempt and challenge to the Norman royal family. No matter where it came from, whether it was the Norman side, the federal side, or the behind-the-scenes commander of other countries, the Norman Empire would investigate to the end, causing the intentional destroyers to pay a heavy price.

The bomb was found at the engagement ceremony preparation site in the afternoon, and was quietly placed on the table in front of everyone. From the perspective of structure, it belongs to the simplest and most reliable type, that is, it is composed of explosives, wires and timing devices. From the perspective of explosives, it is about the same as the charge of a bomi bomb, and iron-cut fragments were mixed in order to increase lethality. Now, it has been removed from the detonation device and does not have the original threat, but if it is ignited with an open flame, it can still allow everyone present to drink a pot.

Following the previous discussion, Weiss said calmly that the reason why the bomb was discovered was that the federal party had received some warnings from secret channels, but these warnings did not have strong evidence or clear directions. It is only a clue. Now, the bomb has confirmed the authenticity of the warning. In view of this, the Lorraine Federal State Government solemnly made a suggestion, hoping that the Norman side could postpone or cancel the engagement ceremony tonight, and invite members of the Norman Empire and important guests to leave first, and the two sides jointly investigate and clean up the entire Belakass.

The cold court servant of the Normans snorted and said in an undisputed tone: "In the history of the Norman Empire, there has been no important ceremony cancelled or postponed due to threats. This is unacceptable to us. Even if the assassination is hidden among the crowd, we will not give in at all. This is determined by our will and character."

Immediately afterwards, he added: "We will do everything possible to ensure the safety of the scene in the next time, and be ready to use our chests to block the attackers' bullets for the royal family we are loyal to, even if the blood flows into a river."

Weiss was speechless, and the federal Foreign Ministry officials present said that if Norman insisted on holding the engagement ceremony at the original time and venue, the federal government would need to declare that we have tried our best to prevent the occurrence of vicious incidents and protect the safety of the guests present. If an uncontrollable accident occurs, we can only regret that this is not a subjective negligence or intentional act of the federal government, because from the current situation, the attacker is most likely from the Norman Empire.

"Thank you for your kindness!" the court servant said in a calm, almost emotional tone. "If today's incident has been verified and does not have a direct relationship with the federal side, we will never shirk responsibility to you, but in turn, this cannot be an excuse for you to clear your suspicion or responsibility."

The temporary meeting ended in such an atmosphere of neither good nor bad. The Normans strengthened their vigilance, and the Federation did not dare to be careless at all. Under the almost carpet-style repeated inspections, and under the strict guard of five steps, one post and one whistle, the engagement ceremony finally kicked off with the arrival of night.

With extreme vigilance and tension, Weiss stood in the brightly lit temporary auditorium, looking at everyone who felt that it was possible that it was the attacker, but he could not do anything - at this time, in his special vision, the Normans were mostly white virtual boxes, some of which were red, but it did not mean that those reds were the attackers, because in his position, the hostile personnel meant having bad intentions to the Federation, not the Norman royal family. This seemed to be the first time he could not make it.

He used his own special perspective to identify the identity of the attacker. In this case, he could only examine the scene from the perspective of a normal soldier, observe everyone's expression and movements, and try to find some clues from it. The suspicious object was obviously not limited to the guests present. All the auxiliary personnel and all those who could contact this engagement ceremony had the potential for committing the crime. As for the motivation, it was complicated and it was difficult to investigate clearly. Everyone could only be listed as the suspect.

At the request of Norman, the engagement ceremony was conducted by the team sent by the Normans to be responsible for the catering and drinking, and all the materials needed were transported from the Norman Empire. Before the ceremony, all the meals were in place, and a total of 184 logistics personnel, including 60 waiters entering the ceremony site, provided services to more than 200 guests. As long as one waiter was irregular, it was possible to bring dangerous explosives and even poison to the ceremony site. If it was a fatal chemical poison, even if it was only a trace amount, it could cause the death of important people, and this trace amount was difficult to prevent through routine inspections.
