Chapter 397: Falling Out

After arriving at the hospital, that fool Chen Jiaju actually took the initiative to expose his own identity.

It was a pity that he couldn't get any needed clues from the mouth of Xu Jie's father.

Instead, he was angrily driven out by Xu Anni.

At this moment, Xu Jie suddenly appeared and said, "That person just now was not a Police officer at all; he is working for the Mafia of the Soviet Union. Did you receive the package I sent you?"

Although Xu Anni was very surprised, she was still more willing to believe her brother than an outsider like Chen Jiaju, so she nodded.

Xu Jie breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Very good, the things inside are extremely important; you must find the safest place to hide them!"

What Xu Jie had sent to his sister was precisely that Uranium Core.

Back when he was in Ukraine, he had felt that things were not right; the arms dealer's check would take three days to clear.

Three days was enough time for the other party to pull too many tricks, so he hadn't brought the real item to the trade at all, but had secretly mailed the Uranium Core back to Australia.

Sure enough, the other party clearly wanted to double-cross him.

This move Xu Jie had made was equivalent to getting himself a golden medal of immunity.

It was just unexpected that these bastards would follow the vine to find the melon, coming all the way to Australia and even finding his family.

So no matter what, Xu Jie had to show himself again.

After admonishing his sister, Xu Jie stood up and left directly.

And just as Chen Jiaju walked out of the hospital, he was called out by someone, and this person was none other than Colonel Kade.

As expected, Chen Jiajun was right; this old guy had also followed him to Australia.

He beckoned directly inside the recreational vehicle, letting Chen Jiaju get in.

Chen Jiaju reported directly to Kade: "Xu Jie's father, Seventh Uncle, will be undergoing surgery at the hospital this afternoon!"

"And Xu Jie?" Kade asked with a feigned air.

Chen Jiaju sneered; his appearance in Australia was already equivalent to being exposed, yet he didn't expect to be asked about it.

However, he said calmly: "Seventh Uncle said he hasn't seen him for a long time! But I think he will definitely appear."

"Why?" Kade asked with a puzzled look: "If his old man dies, he still won't show up?"

"If Seventh Uncle dies, he will appear even more!" Chen Jiaju said with a look of certainty.

Kade asked somewhat strangely: "Why so sure?"

Chen Jiaju said flatly: "Because he is the only son in the family! We Chinese are different from you; our family values are very heavy. When a relative passes away, he must return to wear mourning clothes, burn incense, and offer wine!"

"Huh? What does that mean?" Kade indicated he could not understand.

Chen Jiaju shrugged and said: "Chinese tradition!"

Kade didn't have any good methods now, so he could only believe that Chen Jiaju's words were useful.

After finishing, he stood up and took out a box, handing it to Chen Jiaju: "Take this; perhaps you can make use of it!"

Chen Jiaju opened it to look, and immediately laughed; inside was a set of Monitoring Equipment.

He laughed at himself: "Now I look more like an Agent!"

On the other side, after Chen Jiajun shook off the surveillance from the Soviet Union side, with Silva's help, he quickly understood some things.

For example, the mysterious arms dealer also had a Big Boss behind him who was a Soviet, and a guy with great power at that.

Chen Jiajun said to Silva: "Who do you think it could be?"

Silva frowned and said: "If we analyze it based on the current data, I'm afraid that mysterious Big Boss from the Red Square conference room last time was definitely present!"

Chen Jiajun was stunned after hearing this and said: "In other words, this operation in Australia was a trap from beginning to end?"

Silva nodded: "Otherwise, why not send the KGB? Instead, they let Chen Jiaju and us take action? Australia is not in the United States; the KGB can run rampant and carry out assassinations in the United States, so why can't they do it in Australia?"

"Dragging us into the water and then muddying the waters!" Chen Jiajun rubbed his chin and said: "That way he can better hide his own identity? In that case, I have thought of one person."

"Oh? Boss, who do you think it is?" Silva said in surprise.

"Colonel Kade!" Chen Jiajun said quite firmly: "As Keziluofu's superior, he must have a certain degree of understanding of our identities! He acted too eagerly, making me feel like he really wanted to hand this matter over to us to do!"

"As long as they find Xu Jie and then silence Chen Jiaju, he can directly pin this black pot on us. After all, only we are capable of carrying such a big black pot!"

Silva carefully savored Chen Jiajun's words and said with an astonished look: "That is to say, once we enter the game, no matter what, we can't escape? What a ruthless plan!"

Chen Jiajun sneered and said: "Don't underestimate these high-ranking military officials; they are also politicians! When it comes to playing dirty, they are no worse than anyone else!"

Although Chen Jiaju was not welcomed by the Xu family after his identity was exposed.

He still quietly sneaked into the place where Xu Anni worked.

According to Colonel Kade's information, Xu Jie should have brought the Uranium Core back to Australia.

It's just that he didn't know where it was hidden now.

He certainly wouldn't carry such an important item with him directly, so there was a high probability he would hand it to his relatives to help keep it safe.

After sneaking into the aquarium, Chen Jiaju discovered Xu Anni wearing a wetsuit and diving into the water with something.

Facing this situation, Chen Jiaju had no choice but to follow her directly.

However, he was not a professional after all; after following for a while, he ran out of oxygen and had to surface.

Afterward, he saw something like a fish fin approaching him.

This scared Chen Jiaju out of his mind; he had previously seen Xu Anni interacting with ferocious big sharks underwater.

However, Xu Anni was in an iron cage at that time, and she was also carrying an Oxygen Tank.

And so, he swam toward the shore with all his might.

But only after he got ashore did he realize that what was following him wasn't a shark at all, but a seal doing the backstroke.

Although it was a false alarm, Chen Jiaju didn't dare to follow anymore and could only return to his car, planning to track Xu Anni.

After Xu Anni came out of the aquarium, Chen Jiaju took the equipment Colonel Kade gave him and fired a tracker onto Xu Anni's car.

"Hehe, simple and easy!" Chen Jiaju laughed and hummed a little tune.

However, the next moment, a figure pulled open the car door and sat in.

And this person was none other than Xu Jie, whom they had been searching for.

Xu Jie aimed his gun at Chen Jiaju and then said coldly, "Take off your clothes!"

"Huh?" Chen Jiaju was stunned for a moment: "What are you trying to do?"

"Less talk, hurry up!" Xu Jie said impatiently.

Facing the muzzle of the gun, Chen Jiaju had no choice but to comply. After he stripped off his clothes, Xu Jie threw him a doll costume and then led Chen Jiaju away from the aquarium to a park nearby.

After confirming that there were no wiretaps on Chen Jiaju, Xu Jie said candidly, "We can talk now!"

"Fine, what do you want to talk about?" Chen Jiaju had originally thought that only he and Chen Jiajun knew about the wiretaps on him; he hadn't expected Xu Jie to discover this secret so quickly.

Sure enough, just as Chen Jiajun had said, things were getting more and more complicated.

Clearly, the Soviet Union side didn't trust him and Chen Jiajun very much either; perhaps they didn't have good intentions in sending the two of them to Australia! Xu Jie said directly, "I know you are Ahong Kong Police officer. Who are you working for now?"

Chen Jiaju also said quite readily, "I used to work for the CIA, now I work for the FSB."

Xu Jie smiled and said, "Your identity is quite complex, isn't it!"

"It was simple at first!" Chen Jiaju said helplessly.

Xu Jie continued, "Is the person who sent you Colonel Kade?"

"You know him too?" Chen Jiaju said in surprise.

Xu Jie did not answer, but instead took out a mobile phone and threw it to Chen Jiaju: "How do you contact him? Call him!"

Chen Jiaju dialed Colonel Kade's number, but before he could speak, Xu Jie snatched it away.

"Who am I? Xu Jie!" Xu Jie sneered at Colonel Kade: "I am with your Hong Kong Police friend now. You want to ditch me without paying? Fine, I want double now, and it must be in cash! I'll give you three days. I will notify you then as to when and where to pay!"

"Wait, we need to talk more!" Colonel Kade on the other end of the line said hurriedly.

But Xu Jie ignored him and hung up the phone directly.

Afterwards, Xu Jie said to Chen Jiaju, "Sorry, I was forced to do that just now! You were bugged with several wiretaps! Your clothes, your car, and the tools they gave you all have wiretaps; your every action is under their control!"

"You are just a hunting dog to them. The less you know, the safer it is for you! Don't keep investigating this matter; it won't do you any good!"

Having said that, Xu Jie turned around and intended to leave. But just at this moment, Chen Jiajun brought some men and suddenly cut off Xu Jie's retreat.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, don't be in such a hurry to leave!"

"You... are the Hong Konger who is with Chen Jiaju?" Xu Jie said with some surprise.

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "My name is Chen Jiajun, and like Jiaju, I am someone who was forced to get involved in this matter!"

Xu Jie looked at Chen Jiajun vigilantly and said, "What do you want?"

Chen Jiajun waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be nervous. I am not in the same group as Kade, nor am I with the CIA, and I don't have much interest in the Uranium Core in your hands!"

Xu Jie frowned and said, "Then what do you want to do?"

Chen Jiajun said coldly, "If you've been coerced and fooled, you have to take revenge, don't you? I'm not the type to just take a beating without hitting back!"

Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Xu Jie immediately opened his mouth wide, revealing a look of shock.

He looked as if he were looking at a madman! Who were they facing? A general with real power in the Soviet Union.

Don't look at the fact that the Soviet Union has disintegrated; a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.

Haven't you seen that even the United States doesn't dare to push the Soviet Union to the brink? Is it because they don't want to? It's entirely because they don't dare! What if they get pushed too far and wash everything with nuclear bombs? Who could bear that responsibility?

Although Colonel Kade is a field officer, he is also a general with real power within the Security Committee.

For an ordinary person like Chen Jiajun to want to take revenge on a guy who controls the FSB, isn't that a pipe dream? But then he suddenly remembered that it seemed Chen Jiajun had also come to Australia with Chen Jiaju.

And he had disappeared immediately upon entering Australia; this kind of ability was clearly extraordinary.

"Why should I believe your words? After all, you have already cooperated with Kade. What if you are here for the Uranium Core?" After a moment of silence, Xu Jie said to Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "You don't need to believe what I say, as long as you can understand what I am about to do!"

"What do you mean?" Xu Jie frowned and said.

Chen Jiajun said indifferently, "Given Jiaju's personality, if I didn't tell you beforehand that you were being monitored, you would definitely have had a falling out with General Kade directly, right?"

Chen Jiaju nodded and said, "That's right. After all, this is a matter my superior found for me; I personally am not very willing to participate in this kind of thing!"

Chen Jiajun spread his hands and said, "Then let me simulate what Colonel Kade is going to do next! Since Jiaju is out of control, Colonel Kade will definitely get rid of Jiaju at the first opportunity! Then he will kill your father and use your younger sister to force you to show yourself!"

Although he didn't want to admit it, given the style of Colonel Kade, whom Xu Jie had dealt with for many years, there was a very high probability he would do this! Chen Jiajun continued, "As long as I can keep your family safe for a period of time and make contact with the Soviet military, you can return the Uranium Core to the Soviet Union and everything will be explained clearly!"

Xu Jie shook his head on the spot and said, "That's impossible. The FSB is not as simple as you see; they are all professional agents! And they transformed from the KGB; even the CIA can't stop these guys!"

"Besides, why would you be able to talk to the Soviet military? And why would they believe you?"

Facing Xu Jie's questioning, before Chen Jiajun could speak, Chen Jiaju said with a strange expression, "Others might not be able to, but Sir Chen should be able to!"

He had seen with his own eyes how Chen Jiajun's subordinates dealt with Guanbacao and Kunsha's men; each one of them was like a Superman, charging forward while taking bullets.

Chen Jiaju felt that in terms of individual combat quality, there shouldn't be anyone who could be a match for Chen Jiajun's subordinates! Xu Jie looked at Chen Jiaju with a surprised expression and said, "How do you know?"

"Seen it with my own eyes!" Chen Jiaju shrugged and said, "Can't you just look at the results?"

"This..." Xu Jie was suddenly in a dilemma.

After he defected from the CIA, he didn't dare to trust anyone except his own family.

Now, facing the invitation from Chen Jiajun and Chen Jiaju, Xu Jie couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

Chen Jiajun didn't force him to take a stand either, but smiled indifferently and said, "It's understandable that you can't trust us for the moment. After all, it certainly wasn't easy for you to defect from the CIA, so why don't we wait and see! See what the consequences will be after Jiaju has a falling out with this Colonel Kade!"

Chen Jiaju was stunned on the spot: "Huh? You want me to go and have a falling out with Kade!"

Chen Jiajun pointed to the wiretap on Chen Jiaju's clothes and said, "Isn't this a perfect excuse?"

Chen Jiaju waved his hand and said, "That's not what I meant. What if that guy Kade is a maniac and really comes to kill me?"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't I still have your back?"

Chen Jiaju said with a vigilant look, "That expression of yours is exactly the same as when my superior tricked me into coming to Ukraine!"

Chen Jiajun spread his hands and said, "Alright, I will send two subordinates to provide you with backup!"

Chen Jiaju thought for a moment and agreed.

However, as he was leaving, Chen Jiaju patted the two young demons beside Chen Jiajun and said with deep affection, "My two brothers, my safety depends on you!"

"It's not like you're being sent to your death, why are you being so dramatic! Go quickly!" Chen Jiajun said speechlessly.

Seeing that Chen Jiaju intended to go and test Kade, Xu Jie nodded and agreed.

……

Not long after, Kade discovered that the connection on Chen Jiaju's side had been cut, and he ran over in a hurry.

Only after arriving at the location did he discover that Chen Jiaju had not disappeared, but was standing beside the vehicle with a dark face, wearing a ridiculous doll costume.

"Are you alright?" Kade asked with great concern.

Chen Jiaju said coldly, "I'm fine!"

"Where is Xu Jie?"

"He left?"

"What did he say to you?"

Chen Jiaju looked at Kade's old face and sneered, "I think there's some kind of agreement between you two!"

"Don't believe him, he is the best at sowing discord!" Kade said with a panicked look, "He is a senior Agent of the CIA!"

Chen Jiaju said indifferently, "You might be right, but how do you explain this?"

As he spoke, Chen Jiaju took out the wiretap and placed it directly in front of Kade.

Facing Chen Jiaju's accusation, Kade seemed to have been prepared for a long time.

He chuckled and said, "This is our duty; we must protect you!"

Chen Jiaju clearly didn't buy it and said indifferently, "If you want to find Xu Jie, he has already come knocking! I will write a report to my superior and your superior! I quit!"

After finishing, Chen Jiaju took his things and turned to leave.

Watching Chen Jiaju's departing back, a gloomy expression appeared on Kade's face.

The murderous intent in his eyes could clearly no longer be concealed.

He had originally wanted to finish off Chen Jiaju after the matter was over, but now it seemed this matter had to be moved up.

Because this matter certainly could not be known by the Soviet Union Security Committee, otherwise the first suspect would be him.

After all, the FSB's recent actions had been very abnormal, and some people had already noticed this and were clamoring for a thorough investigation.

If it weren't for this incident, Kade would probably have had countless troubles knocking on his door by now.

What he needed to do now was to get the Uranium Core as quickly as possible and then hand the complete item over to the buyer.

Only when he had enough resources could he safely leave the Soviet Union.

Consequently, he gave his subordinate a look and said coldly, "Don't let him leave Australia alive!"

The subordinate nodded and immediately drove off in pursuit.

Chen Jiaju returned to the hotel to retrieve his things, intending to return to his country.

In any case, he had entered the country through Chen Jiajun's Guojun Security Company, so he could leave through official channels.

Just as Chen Jiaju finished packing his things and prepared to leave.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a burly man who filled the entire door frame walk in and press his hand down on Chen Jiaju's head.

Then, with one kick, he sent Chen Jiaju flying out.

The difference in size between the two sides was too great; there was simply no way to fight. Before Chen Jiaju could get up, he was hoisted up by the burly man and smashed fiercely into the ground.

"Damn it, help!" Chen Jiaju was shocked and immediately began to call for help loudly.

At the same time, he seized the opportunity to dodge frantically around the room.

But at this moment, another fully armed burly man walked out from another door in the suite.

This guy was carrying a Firearm in his hand, specifically to prevent any possibility of Chen Jiaju escaping.

After all, now that he was in Australia, finishing off Chen Jiaju silently was the best outcome; if that failed, he would provide backup fire.

Chen Jiaju was so scared that he jumped out onto the windowsill, pressed himself tightly against the wall, and roared loudly, "If you don't come out, I'm going to be a goner!"

"Alright, alright, stop shouting!" At this moment, a lazy voice rang out: "What will you do if you shout and bring the Police here!" (End of chapter)
