Chapter 642: Chapter 616: Making a Move

The people who came to rescue were ruthless, treating lives as if they were nothing, obviously accustomed to dirty work.

But no matter what, these people were here to save him. Watching as a whole team was mowed down like grass in an instant, Gao Yi felt truly uncomfortable.

Then there was the third wave coming; they were actually from the FBI Hostage Rescue Team.

How ironic, is the Hostage Rescue Team here to save him?

Gao Yi looked at Buck and whispered, "What does Hostage Rescue Team mean?"

"It’s an elite squad of the FBI. Well, they’re very skilled at rescuing hostages, exceptionally proficient at precise strikes without harming hostages. Many are retired from Special Forces. This is probably the special forces unit with the highest percentage of snipers, very police force-like."

Buck’s answer was quite standard, with a complex expression, which wasn’t hard to guess—because he was from the FBI.

Gao Yi looked at the people coming to rescue him and whispered, "So which unit are you from?"

"We’re the Veterans Support Association."

The short answer revealed enough information.

They were indeed from the NSA. The so-called Veterans Support Association was actually a Black Army unit supported by the Pentagon, gathering retired elite soldiers, providing a legal reason for these veterans to gather under the guise of helping with mental health issues.

Now, elite squads of the United States were entering the fray, engaging in direct combat in the city of New York.

But wherever you justified it, the FBI was the only legal one.

This was the benefit of having law enforcement authority. No matter what the CIA or NSA were, their people were now terrorists. Even if all were killed, these departments would never admit to dispatching the troops.

"What should I call you?"

"Parsons."

"Do you have reinforcements?"

Gao Yi asked hopefully, and without hesitation, Parsons said, "Yes, our other team is clearing the heavy machine guns occupying the building. Once they’re successful, we’ll start our action."

Parsons turned back to look at Gao Yi and seriously said, "The ones who attacked you before were hired by Ben. They even had personnel from the United Nations directly involved, and Ben’s intelligence came from the FBI. Now, the FBI, finding the situation uncontrollable, has finally intervened personally. Next, our reinforcements will use machine guns set at the high points to cover here, so the FBI can’t break through."

This situation is too complicated; it’s not just beating down the Andic Group like a drowning dog; it’s clearly a U.S. version of a three-kingdoms battle.

At this point, Yuri suddenly said, "As a team captain, don’t you know a bit too much?"

"What’s wrong with being a team captain?"

Parsons glanced back at Yuri, wearing a skull mask, and without hesitation said, "Let’s be frank, we won’t lack collaboration in the future because I’m the one handling Dark Web affairs from now on. Dealing with my matters, chasing the Andic Group, rescuing the Garden—it’s all on me."

Gao Yi suddenly realized, and Yuri immediately had no more doubts.

They were indeed allies, bound to have long-term dealings in the future. No wonder Parsons was so candid and invested in protecting Gao Yi.

Because Gao Yi was now recognized by most as the successor of the Andic Family, and if he were to die, this matter might not fall through, but there would surely be significant upheaval.

Now, he could completely trust Parsons. Right at this moment, Parsons continued on the communication device, "What?"

Parsons’s tone was filled with shock and disbelief. He looked at Gao Yi and said in a deep voice, "Reinforcements can’t make it, our Team B was intercepted, the FBI deployed enforcement helicopters, uh, the situation might be worse than we anticipated."

Before Gao Yi could even ask, Parsons whispered, "Why is the FBI going mad? Why dare to act like a world war in New York? If you have any intelligence, please tell me immediately."

Gao Yi was dumbfounded and said, "I don’t know, how would I know why the FBI went mad."

There was a feeling, that the probability of Gao Yi encountering a fool was extremely low, but his chances of meeting a madman were quite high.

So isn’t it another possibility that the people dealing with Gao Yi, more precisely, Gao Yi’s enemies, are often driven to madness?

Parsons whispered, "This situation is definitely abnormal; the trouble is, if the FBI uses their enforcement power, openly using their power in New York, how could we possibly be a match for the FBI."

The local official doesn’t outrank the present official. No matter how powerful the Pentagon and CIA are, one being military and the other an intelligence agency, how could they compete with the FBI, which has enforcement power across the United States?

No matter how the FBI reports this afterward, but right now, the combined power of the Pentagon and CIA can’t defeat the FBI, that’s for sure.

Gao Yi made a decisive decision and said without hesitation, "Call for reinforcements! Quickly report to your superior, let them exert pressure from above!"

The opponent was not playing fairly, fighting back was a sure way to seek death forcibly. At this moment, they could only rely on authority. The CIA couldn’t handle the FBI, but Panetta could ask for help from the White House, have the President order the FBI to stop their action.

Gao Yi and Parsons both took out their phones, while Yuri turned to Buck and said, "Ask your colleagues. This kind of large-scale public operation can’t be happening without a single clue, ask your colleagues what happened!"

Buck took out his phone, and for a moment, everyone in the cake shop was hastily making calls, while blocking any enemies possibly coming through had to be left to Yuri and Lucy.

Gao Yi was the first to get through a call, urgently saying, "The FBI sent the Hostage Rescue Team to forcefully attack me..."

Parsons quietly said from the side, "The FBI doesn’t play by the rules; they openly intervened, only I’m left in Team A, Team B sustained heavy casualties. The FBI sent SWAT teams for a forced attack, we’re surrounded, and the Gardener is here too."

Buck got through to his call, and urgently said, "Hey, do you know what happened in Long Beach? I heard the Hostage Rescue Team was dispatched, and there’s also... what? A nuke?"

Buck was dumbfounded, listening to the call and looking at Gao Yi. After a moment, he said in a daze, "Thank you, I’m outside, haven’t gotten the news, uh, alright, I got it."

Ending the call, Buck whispered to Gao Yi, "The FBI is currently executing an emergency counter-terrorism mission; the FBI issued an emergency order. The Soviet Restoration Committee, which made a nuke attack, has placed a nuclear bomb in New York, ready to detonate anytime."

"What!"

Gao Yi was startled; he instinctively looked at Yuri, and after Yuri shook his head in disgust, he finally realized.

There wasn’t any nuclear bomb; the FBI was using this as an excuse to act.
