Adele curled lazily on the recliner next to him. The television in the room was showing the upcoming press conference. However, the press conference had not officially started. The only people who were pacing around were the staff making preparations and some reporters carrying cameras and microphones looking for the ideal positions to lay them out. There was no one on the podium.
She squinted at the young man in the wheelchair and said uncomfortably, “Can you choke your bird to death? It’s so noisy.”
The young man ignored her and tapped his finger on the parrot’s head. Then, the parrot immediately stopped squawking and cleverly jumped into the young man’s hand to peck at the food.
“Jasper made such a huge mess in Sunrise Land, but where is he now?” The young man asked casually.
“Finland.”
Adele yawned and said contemptuously, “This group of Sunrise Land people are really shameless enough to use the power of agents to deal with an ordinary businessman. The funniest thing is that they have failed. I wonder if they feel that their chivalrous spirit is only equivalent to children with water guns now.”
The young man said flatly, “Those are just little fish in the periphery. It would be very troublesome for the real intelligence department to do such things. No one can command them while the head of the country is unconsciousness.”
“What’s more, the higher-ups in Sunrise Land are not fools. Everyone knows that a political storm of the highest level is about to begin, and Jasper was just a bargaining chip that they are using.”
“If they remove the cover of this storm, they can benefit from it, so why deal with Jasper? This would just be dealing with the subordinates and the idiots below.”
Adele replied, unconvinced, “A chess piece they’re using? You’re just jealous. What chess pieces have you seen before that can cause trillion dollar losses in Sunrise Land in one fell swoop?”
The economic loss caused by the Sun Dollars foreign exchange crash was conservatively estimated to be at least 900 billion US Dollars. Even for Sunrise Land, it had lost a layer of skin.
