Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 453: Chapter 340: Teacher, I’ve Mastered It!

The people from the Eastern Country are demanding an explanation from Mark....

Mark, however, was not tense, and even breathed a sigh of relief.

"At least it wasn’t all in vain, some value was achieved, some results obtained..."

Even though Young Master Sauce One and Young Master Sauce Two were captured, it doesn’t mean they were useless. Before being caught, they at least managed to send back a confidential document.

Secrets within secrets!

This included all the parameters of the Eastern Country’s latest missile development, including the production technology. They had full grasp of every piece of information.

Having this technical document doesn’t necessarily mean they will manufacture these weapons.

But they can definitely develop an anti-missile system based on these parameters, making these technologies as good as scrap metal to the Eastern Country!

As for the Eastern Country Embassy, they demand confrontation....

"Issue a public relations clarification, and if public opinion doesn’t ease, hire someone to negotiate, then play dead and don’t respond, but under no circumstances admit to it!"

A series of response measures flashed through Mark’s mind instantly.

Espionage must not be admitted to, even if both sides know deep down that it was their doing!

There aren’t many smart people in the Western Country, and Mark barely counts as one. Naturally, he came up with the optimal solution.

As for....

"How should we handle the Eastern Country Embassy?"

The subordinate’s face showed a bit of hesitation.

Regardless, they are on the Eastern Country’s turf. If a meeting is requested... they have no choice!

Mark also had a headache.

The two things a spy fears most are being caught red-handed and confessing who’s behind them.

Clearly, Pang Delong and the others have both.

Mark must therefore respond, otherwise, if this isn’t resolved, old grievances could be revisited at any time...

"Take me there,"

Mark sighed and said truthfully, then capped the pen in his hand, stood up, and followed his subordinate, letting him lead the way.

Upon hearing this, the subordinate breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and quickly walked out.

If the other party refuses to face negotiations, the subordinate would have to bear the pressure alone....

Now that Mark is willing to talk, the subordinate is naturally happy to see it, quickening his pace.

It wasn’t long before they stopped in front of a door.

Mark took a deep breath, then placed both hands on the door handle, paused for a moment, and then wore a solemn expression as he pushed hard.

The next second...

"Creak~!"

The door opened.

Inside sat four middle-aged men, all dressed formally, clothes neatly pressed, with serious expressions.

Among them was Xu Liang’s second senior brother, Li Yang, sitting in the main seat. Upon hearing the door creak, he instinctively turned his head to look, and a smile emerged on his face.

But before Li Yang could speak, someone beside him had already taken the initiative.

"Heh, Ambassador Mark, I hope you can provide our country an explanation as to why there is a so-called Young Master Sauce One and Young Master Sauce Two!"

"And why our core confidential R&D technology was leaked!"

Someone spoke bluntly, without any prelude, as if they were simply there to find fault.

Upon hearing this, Mark’s heart tightened, yet he wasn’t afraid. His mind raced, and immediately he feigned confusion and hesitantly said:

"Ambassador Qian Beihai, what... what Young Master Sauce One?"

"Could you elaborate a bit more?"

Qian Beihai’s face immediately showed anger and he shouted:

"Still pretending!? Pang Delong and Zhu Haoyi have confessed everything, including Fang Tianhai. Do you need me to compile the information they provided and place it in front of you!?"

Not to mention their communication channels and their direct superiors.

Just Fang Tianhai alone, with an overseas shell company sending him money every time, it’s hard to clear that up.

But Mark remained determined not to admit a thing.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about," Mark gritted his teeth and said.

"I can assure you that our side has never had contact with the so-called Young Master Sauce One and Two...."

"Could it be another country trying to disrupt the friendship between the Eastern and Western Countries and intentionally framing us?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Beihai’s face only grew angrier.

"This is too much!"

"Aren’t you afraid of sparking a diplomatic conflict!?"

Heh, a threat, eh...

Mark smirked inwardly.

Diplomacy is the continuation of war, and with the Eastern Country significantly lagging, they wouldn’t dare think about starting a war. Since they can’t start one, any so-called diplomatic conflict is out of the question.

Just as Mark was considering how to break away and leave.

A voice suddenly sounded from beside him, and a young-looking man stood up.

That man... was none other than the second senior brother Li Yang!

Li Yang stood up with a cheerful expression on his face, walked to Qian Beihai’s side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Ambassador Mark may indeed have been kept in the dark; after all, the whole story hasn’t yet been fully investigated."

"Ambassador Qian should tread carefully."

Upon hearing this, Mark was taken aback. Before he could say anything, Qian Beihai spoke first.

"Li Yang, what do you mean!?"

"Just what I said, what if it really has nothing to do with Mr. Mark? After all, Pang Delong and Zhu Haoyi never mentioned Mr. Mark from start to finish, they might be in the dark too."

"In fact, this whole espionage affair might just be a farce!"

"Isn’t that right, Ambassador Mark?" Li Yang gave Mark a fawning smile.

Upon hearing this, Mark paused. Even though he didn’t understand why the other party was speaking for him, he still quickly picked up the cue.

"Rest assured, Ambassador Qian, we will certainly provide you with an explanation!"

Mark said seriously: "Our country will thoroughly investigate this matter to the end!"
