USA, New York, JP Morgan Chase Financial Building, one week after the 911/[-] incident.

A U.S. 911/911 financial policy meeting hosted by the JPMorgan Chase consortium is underway. This meeting is attended by major officials from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, the Department of Justice, the Department of Defense, and even the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency and the Pentagon. Not only that, the current US President Bush also attended the meeting. This meeting was hailed as the redefinition of US financial policy after the [-]/[-] incident, so the meeting was extremely confidential.

At the meeting, JPMorgan Chase's chief investment officer reported in detail the data on the U.S. stock market, foreign exchange market and major stock markets around the world since the 911/[-] incident, focusing on analysis and prediction of the future trends of gold and oil, and also gave several suggestions for the government to adjust financial policies.

The main officials of the U.S. Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve reported in detail the trend of the U.S. dollar exchange rate, the national debt situation, and the current losses in various industries in the country. Finally, the Treasury Department estimated that the economic losses caused by the September 911 incident in the entire United States will exceed two trillion U.S. dollars.

"In addition, we collected the short-selling power of the U.S. stock market before and after 911/911 and found that there was a mysterious large fund that gradually shorted the major U.S. stock indexes a few months before the [-]/[-] incident. Not only the United States, but also other major stock indexes in the world. Although this A mysterious fund was broken down into hundreds of accounts, but through joint decryption with the British intelligence agency, we finally locked the command center of this fund in a certain country in East Asia."

"Can't you be more specific?" asked the American Bush with a gloomy face.

"After we calculated that the short-selling funds this time exceeded [-] billion U.S. dollars, among all the countries in East Asia that we could launch this short-selling attack based on their comprehensive national strength, none of them met the criteria. In other words, based on the strength of the countries in East Asia, no one could. Launching an attack on such a financial scale is what confuses us the most.”

"Check! We must investigate this matter and find out who is behind it. This person must have some relationship with this terrorist attack, otherwise it would never be such a coincidence." President Bush said.

"This fund is being gradually withdrawn. We have locked the whereabouts of these funds through SWIFT, and the results will be available within three days."

"Okay. Although the 911 incident shifted our work focus from the Asia-Pacific to the Middle East, and the Middle East will be our monitoring area for a long time in the future, we will never allow anyone to make American money by shorting the U.S. stock market. Whoever is behind this must be found!" Bush slammed the desk with a muffled sound.

"Your Excellency, our Ministry of National Defense has prepared a war plan and deployment in the Middle East..."

Ye Fang never expected that the top secret meeting of high-level officials in the United States on the other side of the ocean would discuss him in the first half of the meeting, and another topic of this meeting was a war that the United States was about to launch.

What Ye Fang didn't expect was that although he had thought carefully enough about this short-selling operation in the global capital market, he didn't expect that because SWIFT, the world's most popular fund settlement system, is controlled by the United States, he would not be able to handle large-scale capital flows back and forth. It was only a matter of time before the results of the investigation came out. In the end, after the funds were tracked by the United States and the United Kingdom, Zhongrui Capital was quickly targeted.

The result of the secret immediately put Lu Jiaming of Zhongrui Capital into great danger.

Fortunately, Ye Fang's funds were withdrawn very quickly. Although the intelligence agencies of the United States and Britain had targeted Zhongrui Capital, they were unable to take any action on the incoming and outgoing funds. Xiangjiang is a key surveillance area by the intelligence agencies of the United States and Britain. It is not difficult to locate Lu Jiaming's whereabouts.

It’s just that Lu Jiaming and Ye Fang have been together recently, living in seclusion. Ye Fang didn’t pay too much attention to some surveillance agents around him, until Lu Jiuge saw that there was not just one surveillance agent outside Deep Water Bay, but almost a United Nations. . Lu Jiuge told Nan Yi about the situation immediately. Nan Yi told Lu Jiuge not to tell Ye Fang about the situation for the time being and asked him to take someone to investigate.

Nan Yi knew that Ye Fang was under a lot of pressure now and didn't want these trivial matters to affect him anymore.

Just when Lu Jiuge was about to take people out to find out, an unexpected incident turned into a head-on confrontation with these secret forces. The staff in the secret trading base of Zhongrui Capital has almost been withdrawn. The trading teams of Meng Fei and Zhuo Hao have withdrawn from Zhongrui Capital. Everyone took their bonuses and went abroad to enjoy themselves.

The rest of the trading was taken over by Zhongrui Capital's own team. After Lu Jiaming finished handling everything, he was going to Deep Water Bay to report to Ye Fang. Just as Lu Jiaming came out of the Zhongrui Capital Building, he was followed by a car. .

Luo Zhong, who was driving the Ghost Team, was driving. During this period, he and the doctor had been responsible for Lu Jiaming's security. As soon as the car left the main city, Luo Zhong, who was driving, spotted the vehicle following him.

"Knife showman, there is a car behind us that seems to be following us." Luo Zhong said through the rearview mirror.

Lu Jiaming looked alert. He looked back and saw a black car following him leisurely.

"Hurry up and find a place where no one is around to ask." The doctor slowly put on white medical gloves and said nonchalantly.

"Okay." Luo Zhong said as he stepped on the accelerator, and the car immediately sped out. The black car following behind saw this and increased the accelerator to catch up. However, when the black car turned a curve going up the mountain, it saw the car it was following parked on the side of the road. It was already empty.

Four foreigners in black suits got out of the black car. These foreigners were all professional intelligence agents. One look at the footprints on the ground and it was clear that the people in the car ran up the mountain.

"Chase!" The four people immediately ran towards the dense forest on the mountain.

Before the four foreigners rushed into the dense forest, Feidao and the doctor appeared from the woods. The doctor smiled and asked, "Are you looking for us?"

One of the foreigners glanced at the flying knife and the doctor and said directly, "That person is not here, let's retreat!"

As they spoke, the four people ignored Feidao and the doctor and actually turned around and left, making Feidao and the doctor dumbfounded. Feidao said directly, "These four people don't think highly of us at all."

"You can tell if you feel good or bad, just make a gesture. I haven't exercised for a long time." The doctor flicked his wrist, dropped a scalpel into his palm, and rushed forward.

"Wait for me!" Feidao drew out the flying knife, held it with his backhand, and followed closely.

These four agents of the British intelligence agency were not idlers. They immediately turned around when they heard the sound of the two running behind them, and then started a four-on-two fight. In terms of close combat, these four people were no match for the flying knives and the doctor. In particular, the two of them had an advantage in close combat with knives. After a few encounters, the four of them were already covered in blood.

Especially two of them had a half-foot-long wound on their arms caused by the doctor's surgery, which was deep enough to penetrate the bones. The two agents, who were in so much pain, took out their pistols from their arms and pointed them at the flying knife and the doctor, mouthing. Shouting "Fuck you! kill you!"

"Hey, there is a gun, that's interesting." Feidao and the doctor looked at each other and said with a smile, but they didn't pay attention to the two pistols at all.

However, the other two companions seemed to be very concerned about taking out their guns, and even their words and shouts did not stop them from taking out their guns. It was obvious that these two companions had murderous intentions.

At this time, Feidao suddenly raised his head and shouted behind the four people, "Come out!"

The four foreigners didn't even think about the trick with flying knives. They reflexively looked behind them and realized that they had been fooled when they found no one. The knife and the doctor flew out of their hands at the same time. The two knives shot directly through the palms of the two men as if they had eyes. The two men let go of their right hands in pain, and the pistol fell to the ground.

The other two companions couldn't help but take out guns from their arms when they saw this, but Feidao and the doctor didn't give them another chance. The two of them stepped forward and cut off the tendons of both hands and wrists with the knife. The two of them were so painful that they fainted immediately. past.

These four foreigners all had guns and were obviously not ordinary people. Feidao immediately contacted Lu Jiuge. A few minutes later, Lu Jiuge and Nan Yi arrived at the dense forest and saw the four foreigners.

With little effort, the four foreigners confessed that they were staff of the British intelligence agency, and their mission was to wait for an opportunity to take Lu Jiaming away.

"Caught me?" Lu Jiaming pointed at himself and said in surprise. Lu Jiaming didn't know when he became the target of arrest by the British intelligence agency.

As for the reason for arresting Lu Jiaming, the four agents did not know the reason. They only knew that the order was personally issued by Lister, the person in charge of Xiangjiang.

"Lister?!" When the news came back to Ye Fang's ears at Deep Water Bay Villa, Ye Fang sneered and said, "What is this Lister doing to arrest Lu Jiaming?!" At this time, Ye Fang never thought that he and Zhong Rui Capital, including Lu Jiaming, would be exposed to the sight of the American and British intelligence agencies so quickly. To be precise, Lu Jiaming. After all, Ye Fang is safe for the time being.

"Mr. Ye, what should we do with those four people?" Lu Jiuge asked.

"Let them go, can we really kill them?! If we do, we will be in a lot of trouble." Ye Fang said.

"Okay, I understand." Lu Jiuge said.

"But this Riester wants to arrest Lu Jiaming, I still have to understand the reason for this." Ye Fang murmured.

When the four agents who were let go returned to the British Consulate to see Lister, they described their encounter in detail, and were then carried away for emergency treatment. Although Lister expected that Lu Jiaming would not be so easy to catch, he did not expect that his four agents would be unable to resist and be seriously injured.

At this time, his subordinates handed the file bag containing all the information about Lu Jiaming to Lister. Lister opened the file bag and took out one of the photos. He was immediately surprised and exclaimed, "It's him!"

Soon, Lister immediately called his assistant, handed him the photo in his hand, and said, "I want all the information about this person, everything."

"Sir, there is a detailed report on this person's peripheral investigation, and I can give it to you now." the assistant replied.

Lister suddenly yelled, "Re-investigate, I mean re-investigate, what you see may be an illusion, what you see may be what he wants to show us, do you understand?"

"Yes, sir!" The assistant took the photo and turned away, but soon turned back. After seeing it, Lister said dissatisfiedly, "Why are you back again? What else can you do?"

"Sir...that..."

"What's the matter? Tell me!" Lister was really angry when he saw his assistant hesitating.

"That... the person in the photo is here to find you." The assistant pointed outside.

"What?! Ye Fang!" Lister said in surprise.

Soon, Ye Fang walked calmly into Lister's room with square steps. Lister put away all his suspicions about Ye Fang and immediately put on a typical politician's smile.

"Mr. Ye, long time no see." Riester came up and opened his arms to hug Ye Fang.

Ye Fang quickly stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "We Chinese don't like this, so let's shake hands."

Lister spread his hands and said with a smile, "Okay." Then Lister's big hand came together with Ye Fang's, and Lister patted Ye Fang's arm like an old friend. If Ye Fang hadn't known that Lister Regardless of his identity, it's really easy to be confused by his illusion.

After the two briefly exchanged greetings, Lister and Ye Fang sat down quietly. At the same time, Lister told his assistant not to see anyone and did not want anyone to disturb him.

"Mr. Ye, are you here unexpectedly?" Lister asked deliberately, even though he now knew that the boss behind Lu Jiaming was actually Ye Fang. Lu Jiaming was recorded in detail in the file package passed by the United States. The history of his fortune, including the background of how Zhongrui Capital was established, is very clearly recorded.

"Lister, we are old friends. I wonder why your people disturbed my friend today?" Ye Fang asked directly.

Lister chuckled and did not answer Ye Fang's question, but asked directly, "I wonder how much profit Mr. Ye made from the 911 incident?"

Hearing Lister's words, Ye Fang immediately realized the reason why Lu Jiaming came into the sight of the British intelligence agency. He suddenly realized that he seemed a little presumptuous today. However, Ye Fang then thought about it. Since Lu Jiaming had been traced, it was only a matter of time before he was traced. However, Ye Fang didn't know how the British had locked onto him so quickly.

"How did you know it was me?" Even though Ye Fang's heart was turbulent, his face was still as calm as water, which made Riester deeply admire Ye Fang's determination.

Lister smiled and said, "There is an old saying in China: If you don't know what others want to know, you have to do it yourself. Mr. Ye's ability to fish in troubled waters is really superb. He not only shorted the U.S. stock index, but even the major Western stock indexes. My and I The family suffered heavy losses in the 911/[-] incident, and Mr. Ye really deserves a share of the credit."

At this time, it was Ye Fang's turn to laugh and said, "I earned the money from the capital market, not from your pockets. You can't blame all the losses on me. As far as I know, Dafa 911 I’m not the only one who has made a fortune in disaster, haven’t you investigated how much money the big conglomerates in the United States have made?”

Lister nodded with deep understanding and said, "Strictly speaking, there is no relationship between how much you earn and how much I lose. It doesn't even have anything to do with Britain, but it does have something to do with the United States. You should know that our relationship with the United States is close. We are endless partners, we must handle the things they entrust us with, can you understand?"

This time, Ye Fang finally learned that the British intelligence agencies had spent all their efforts to find him, and that the real leader was the United States.

"I don't want to tell secret stories. I just want to know how the United States found me?"
