Chapter 896 A firm refusal!
"This is impossible!"
The middle-aged man decisively rejected Pei Xingchen's words. For the first time, he showed an angry expression towards Pei Xingchen and spoke to Pei Xingchen in a tone that was almost like a scolding.
"Cracks have already appeared in Tianbo Building, and no one knows when it will collapse."
"Once it collapses, millions of tons of concrete will completely submerge this place. No one can survive in such an environment."
"Letting them stay here would be tantamount to sending themselves to death. I will never agree to that!"
The middle-aged man rejected Pei Xingchen's words in an extremely firm manner, which made the originally angry special agents show expressions of awe and respect towards the middle-aged man after hearing it.
After hearing Pei Xingchen's rude request, the other people surrounding the middle-aged man all frowned and were very dissatisfied with Pei Xingchen's request.
Just as the middle-aged man said, cracks have appeared again in Tianbo Building, and the cracks are so obvious and dense that it is obvious that Tianbo Building has officially entered the prelude to collapse.
No one can tell how long it will take for the Tianbo Building to collapse, a few minutes or a few hours, no one knows.
But as the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. No matter how long it will take for Tianbo Building to collapse, they must not risk staying here any longer, otherwise their lives may be in danger at any time, and they must retreat!
As for Pei Xingchen's words, forcing the special agents to stay here and continue waiting for Chu Longtu's men, was tantamount to not taking the lives of the special agents seriously. What he meant was that it doesn't matter whether I am in charge or not, you have to do your job for me first!
Such a cold-blooded style of behavior makes people unable to help but feel strong disgust and aversion from the bottom of their hearts.
If Pei Xingchen used the private soldiers belonging to the Pei family to risk his life, then no one would say anything even if they were disgusted.
They are all your Pei family’s private army. Even if they all die, it has nothing to do with them.
But now Pei Xingchen is risking the lives of the members of the special service team belonging to the parliament. How can this not make the middle-aged man and others even more angry and disgusted?
So the special forces team that the parliament spent a huge amount of resources and money to train with great difficulty are all prepared for your Pei family, ready to be used as cannon fodder at any time?
If it weren't for the fact that he still had a bit of self-control, the middle-aged man would have been unable to hold back and started cursing.
Even though he didn't curse, the middle-aged man's face was still extremely cold. He stared at Pei Xingchen intently. He had already made up his mind that if Pei Xingchen said anything nonsense again, he would never give Pei Xingchen any face and would just start scolding him!
Even if the chairman of the parliament behind him knew about it, he probably wouldn't hold him accountable. Instead, he would praise him and say "well done!"
Pei Xingchen is the kind of person who doesn't care about other people's lives, especially taking risks with the property belonging to the parliament. Even if the chairman of the parliament is here, he would have to scold Pei Xingchen severely!
Pei Xingchen was being stared at by so many people with unfriendly eyes, but his face did not change color at all. He just stared at the middle-aged man and said in a cold voice.
"You just promised, are you planning to go back on your word?"
The middle-aged man was almost laughing out of anger after hearing what Pei Xingchen said.
That’s right, he did promise Pei Xingchen to help him capture Chu Longtu’s men.
But it was just a verbal agreement, there wasn't even a draft contract, it was just like the two people reached a verbal agreement.
It was just a temporary compromise reached by the two people due to their differences. Even the middle-aged man had a trick up his sleeve and was not prepared to let the special agents risk their lives to help Chu Longtu.
And now, the building is about to collapse, but Pei Xingchen is forcing him to prevent his men from retreating and to continue to hold on and capture Chu Longtu's men. This is simply outrageous!
Even if the middle-aged man is the assistant to the chairman of the parliament and the superior of the special agents, if he dares to issue such a stupid order that does not care about the lives of the special agents, then the special agents will definitely act without hesitation and let the middle-aged man feel the iron fist of the special forces team.
This is not a war against invaders. They have to fight for every inch of land and not give up an inch. Even if they are left behind by their own people to snipe the enemy and sacrifice themselves, they will have no complaints.
The problem is that there is no honor in the current confrontation, it is just a personal vendetta between two powerful forces. Because of such a personal vendetta, the special service team under the parliament was sacrificed as cannon fodder. I am afraid that after the parliament learns the news, the chairman of the parliament will be the first to send the middle-aged man to court and sentence him to death!
What's more, the building that was attacked was the Pei family's building, not their parliament building. What does it have to do with them?
The Pei family was never a good group to begin with, and it's hard to say whether Chu Longtu, who was competing with the Pei family, was a good person. Since they were all biting each other for personal gain, there was no reason for the middle-aged man and the others to get involved. They should just let the Pei family and Chu Longtu fight it out.
No matter which of the two parties wins or loses, in the end it will be a dog-eat-dog situation, and the only one who benefits will be the parliament.
With this premise in place, the parliament would rather the Pei family and Chu Longtu fight more fiercely than take the initiative to intervene.
So the middle-aged man spoke without any hesitation.
"We just reached a verbal agreement. We just wanted to stop Chu Longtu's men and interrogate them about the attack on Tianbo Building."
"But given that the situation in Tianbo Building is quite dangerous, I have decided to suspend the verbal agreement we just reached. All special agents will begin to retreat, with their own safety as the top priority."
"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood."
"If the person is still alive, then even if we fail to catch Chu Longtu's men this time, we still have a chance to catch them next time."
"But if a person dies, then they are truly dead. There will be no trace left and it can never be recovered."
"I advise you to retreat for the time being."
"Maybe the Tianbo Building will collapse and bury all the culprits who attacked the building. They are buried well, so there is no need to catch them anymore."
“As for the culprit, if the parliament is really sure that Chu Longtu is the mastermind behind this, they will naturally not sit idly by and will definitely take measures against him.”
"These are things that cannot be rushed. It's useless even if you rush now."
The middle-aged man finished speaking in one breath, paused to take a breath, and then looked at Pei Xingchen.
Anyway, his meaning has been expressed very clearly. He will definitely not issue such a stupid order according to Pei Xingchen's wishes!
