The moment he heard this, Du Yang's face instantly turned grim.
To be honest, the people from China's Security Department had shown Hanado considerable consideration.
However, if Hanado were to arbitrarily kill people on Chinese soil, he would absolutely not shield the perpetrator!
He would surely make Hanado understand what Chinese law was!
Sensing Du Yang's change in mood, Song Qiao narrowed his eyes, glanced at Hanado, and sneered.
"So, it's best if the Security Department doesn't interfere in today's matter. I just want the deserving to receive their punishment!"
He made a move to act.
But at that very moment, Du Yang's pupils contracted slightly. He quickly stepped forward to block Song Qiao, and at the same time, met Song Qiao's icy gaze, shouting in a low voice.
"Song Qiao! Calm down!"
Seeing Song Qiao's emotions gradually stabilize, Du Yang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and looked at Song Qiao.
"Mr. Song, even if he really did that, it's still the Security Department's decision to make, not for you to handle it this way."
"A life for a life, what's with all the complications!" Song Qiao's expression was clearly displeased. As he spoke, he shot a cold glance at Hanado, a look that made Hanado suddenly feel a chill.
And when Hanado saw Du Yang also looking at him, he let out a cold laugh.
"Mr. Song, all the people I killed were traitors from the Xue Rong Camp. We are clearing our own house in the Snow Country. Is that not allowed?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Alice's eyes immediately turned red. She gritted her teeth and stared fiercely at Hanado, her face filled with hatred.
"You're spouting nonsense! Kanonina was clearly an ordinary person. She knew nothing! But! You still killed her!"
As she said this, Alice felt a suffocating sensation.
Du Yang frowned and looked at Hanado.
However, Hanado merely sneered at Alice's accusation, narrowed his eyes, and said unhurriedly and slowly.
"Your words don't count in matters like this. Only what I say counts."
"Don't forget, I, Hanado, am the supervisor of the Xue Rong Camp. Would I misremember who belongs to the Xue Rong Camp?"
Hearing his half-smile, half-sneer, Alice gritted her teeth and glared at him.
But it was clear that this action had no impact and was directly ignored by Hanado.
And what Hanado said was indeed true.
Compared to others, the words of the Xue Rong Camp supervisor carried more credibility.
Du Yang immediately frowned and, leading his Security Department personnel, protected Hanado. He looked at Song Qiao and Alice and said sternly.
"Song Qiao, Hanado is an international guest. You are also part of another Security Department. You shouldn't be having this kind of conflict with him."
Upon hearing this, Song Qiao couldn't help but curl his lips. He glanced at Alice and casually asked.
"So, my people died for nothing?"
"Song Qiao!" Du Yang's voice suddenly rose slightly, and his gaze towards Song Qiao became exceptionally serious.
Du Yang took a deep breath, his brows tightly furrowed.
"You can't possibly not know that doing this will have a significant impact on China!"
Indeed...
After all, Hanado was an international guest. As long as he didn't commit excessively egregious acts, this status would protect him well.
Kanonina was also a woman from the Snow Country. If Hanado insisted that Kanonina was a traitor of the Xue Rong Camp, no one could do anything about it.
Song Qiao's brows immediately knitted together, and he remained silent, pressing his lips tightly.
Seeing Song Qiao's reaction, Du Yang's tone softened slightly. He turned his gaze to Alice, who was clutching Song Qiao's sleeve, paused, and continued.
"As for this Alice, our Security Department will take her in for investigation."
"But rest assured, we will also guarantee her safety."
While speaking, Du Yang kept observing Song Qiao's expression.
Although their Security Department and Song Qiao's belonged to different branches, Song Qiao's status as the CEO of Baohua Capital could not be underestimated.
He still had to show some respect.
The two sides remained at an impasse.
Before long, Song Qiao spoke, dropping a bombshell.
"Since when did the International Security Department become a running dog for the Snow Country?"
His words shocked everyone present. The Security Department officers who had arrived were instantly enraged, their faces darkened as they stared intently at Song Qiao, their angry reprimands erupting.
"What?"
"Song Qiao, what do you mean? Watch what you say!"
"This is outrageous. We are merely acting impartially! Song Qiao, your words are too excessive!"
However, Song Qiao seemed to not hear the reprimands from these Security Department officers. He gave a cold laugh, swept his gaze across them, and continued speaking to himself.
"I can temporarily forgo pursuing the matter of Kanonina, but as for Alice..."
He paused slightly at this point, patted Alice's nervously clenched hand, and continued.
"Whether she is a traitor to the Xue Rong Camp has nothing to do with me. At least for now, she is my employee."
"If you want to take her away, I will absolutely not agree!"
This was clearly showing no respect to Du Yang.
Du Yang was clearly angered by Song Qiao's words. His face was full of displeasure, and he clenched his fists, saying coldly.
"Mr. Song, we should all watch our words."
"Furthermore, if Alice is indeed from the Xue Rong Camp, our China International Security Department will certainly handle this matter with the utmost seriousness!"
Unfortunately, no matter what was said, Song Qiao still refused to yield, causing the atmosphere between the two sides to become tense once again.
Under this tense atmosphere, Hanado, who had finally regained some strength, stepped forward.
Looking at the somewhat timid Alice, Hanado felt a surge of impatience. He gritted his teeth and urged.
"Du Yang, let's not waste any more words on this. Take her away quickly, and send her to me after the investigation is complete."
Hearing this, Alice was startled and quickly looked up at Song Qiao, shaking her head frantically.
If she were truly taken for investigation, she would undoubtedly be handed over to the Snow Country authorities.
At that point, she would fall into the hands of the Xue Rong Camp.
And who knew what fate awaited her in Hanado's grasp.
Du Yang nodded. "Song Qiao, there's no room for negotiation on this matter. We must take this woman."
"But don't worry, if there are no issues, she can certainly return to being your employee."
Fists clenched slightly, Song Qiao stared at Du Yang and suddenly smiled.
"Oh?"
As he spoke, Song Qiao took out his identification from his person and revealed the side with his information to Du Yang, saying coldly.
"Du Yang, in front of me, you'd best think carefully before you speak."
At this moment, Du Yang's expression turned sharp as his gaze fell upon the identification.
"Song Qiao, I know you are a Brigadier General in the Security Department."
Du Yang pursed his lips. After saying this, he paused, looked at Song Qiao, and said coldly.
"However, your Security Department and the International Security Department are not the same. This matter concerns the good relations between two countries and must be handled with utmost seriousness!"
"If it escalates badly, it could lead to conflict between the two countries, something you cannot possibly bear the responsibility for!"
"Today, let alone you, even if Mo Ling himself came, I would still take this woman away!"
