Chapter 180 Long planned
"Your Excellency, the car is ready."
"Ok."
When Alice came to her senses, she was already inside the car. For her, the experience of traveling to another world, becoming a hero, then a girl, then a princess, and finally becoming president through her own efforts over the past ten years was unimaginable.
She stretched out her hands, her slender and delicate hands covered with ink marks from writing and erasing, a habit she had never changed.
With his hands resting on his trousers, he wore fine wool trousers and a slim-fitting dark blue suit. As always, the small round hat he wore cast a shadow, obscuring half of his face. At least in terms of his taste in clothing, he remained the same as before.
But the silvery-white strands of hair falling across her cheeks occasionally obscured her eyes, and her lips were sometimes caught by the strands. This was different from before. Moreover, the bulging of her chest, the strange feeling of her developing breasts being wrapped in black underwear, and the emptiness between her legs—this strange feeling was becoming more and more familiar to her.
Alice rested her hand on the car door, looking out the window. In the past, this place was dominated by nature, but now, the power of human industry was etching the marks of civilization—bridges and highways made of reinforced concrete were the skeleton of modern civilization, and these things were changing the world.
And she was the one who started all of this.
Alice crossed her legs, and the car ran smoothly, at least for now. The road to De La Leyer was almost finished, but it would take more than an hour to get there from Port Hilla, at least that long at the top speed of her brand-new Pontiac Tempest.
Alice looked out the window listlessly, pouting slightly to express her boredom, but a moment later she looked in the rearview mirror—there were two other cars traveling with her, one carrying Ms. Sainz, who was going with her, and the other carrying security personnel and logistics staff, all in the same Pontiac Storm.
"How much longer?"
Alice finished reading the reports in her hands one by one. After some time, she looked out the window. The scenery of the highway seemed to never change. However, the road from Port Hira to De la Leyé, then to Versailles, and finally to Brittany, was the longest national highway ever built by the Federal Republic of Emerin. The Minister of Transport, who was accompanying her, personally served as her driver and began to introduce the road incessantly as soon as they embarked on the highway journey.
However, every story has an ending, and the Minister of Transportation eventually stopped narrating and started driving seriously, after all, driving on the highway is a physically demanding job.
"By the way, how's the deal with the Halvin Gang and the Magic Hermitage going?"
Alice suddenly asked, and Rafis next to her looked at the other person in the front seat—Lavinia Olicates, the head of the secret intelligence agency.
"That's what I wanted to say, Miss President. The agents have reported that they've become more closely integrated, but they've also exposed some of their underground transportation routes. Based on the reports from the investigative agents, we have reason to suspect that their underground transportation routes exist beneath Versailles, specifically within the city's drainage system."
"Obviously, isn't it? Using underground drainage systems as transportation channels, humph, just like the rats."
Alice nodded. The clearer the situation in Versailles became, the more she felt that the city had become a giant rat's nest, with rats moving everywhere, and anti-gang operations often turned into gunfights between police and criminals.
"Furthermore, an agent reported that the so-called Harvin Gang and the Secret Order are planning an assassination attempt against the so-called high-ranking members of the Amelansi gang..."
Alice nodded; it seemed that not using a convertible was the right decision.
"Targeting us? Hmm... well, it seems some people are really tired of living. Do they have connections with other countries?"
“Other countries? We haven’t received any intelligence on that yet; at least they’re only operating in the Versailles region.”
Lavinia Olicarts answered, and Alice nodded. The convoy sped off, and she suddenly noticed several cars on one side that seemed to have been following the convoy on the right rear. She suddenly had a bad feeling, but then began to wonder if she was just being nervous.
Moreover, this place, far from any village or shop, is actually a perfect spot for doing this kind of thing.
Do we have any help?
What place are you referring to?
"Right here."
Alice asked.
"The highway passes through Vincennes Air Force Base, where the 23rd Air Tactical Linkage, the 12th Army Air Transport Regiment, and two brigades of airborne troops are located."
"Do you see those two Fiats to our right rear? That's not a good sign. They've been following us the whole time, and those cars could easily overtake us."
Alice looked at the two red Fiat cars, four-seater station wagons. She clearly saw someone roll down the window, and then the whole car accelerated.
"Loli swearing! The attack you predicted is here!"
Alice gritted her teeth, and Lavinia Olicarts immediately grabbed her, followed by a burst of gunfire.
Rafis opened the box in her hand and took out a TEC-9 submachine gun fully loaded with bullets. This is the most commonly used submachine gun among the Amelansi security personnel.
Alice clutched her head; before that, she had seen a Madsen machine gun.
Bullets flew, windows were shattered, and the car following behind lost control and crashed into the car in front. If the Minister of Transport hadn't slammed on the brakes earlier, it would probably have rolled dozens of times on the road.
When Alice regained consciousness, she was being undressed by Lavinia Olicatus, blood everywhere, dripping onto her cheeks.
"Miss President! Wake up!"
The bullet struck the car. Alice's car was equipped with extra armor, but it was still difficult to withstand a full-power bullet. Rafis dragged Alice to the side of the road.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Alice struggled to sit up. She turned her head and saw that she had been dragged to the shoulder of the road. The Minister of Transportation's lifeless body was slumped next to the deformed car. The maid Raffis staggered to sit down next to her, her maid outfit stained with blood.
"Rafis! How are you?"
"These guys...are heavily armed...you'd better duck, your body armor won't protect you..."
Alice frantically pulled Rafis along. The maid had been shot, slightly above her right shoulder, but thankfully it was a pistol bullet that hit an undefended area.
"Who is it?"
Alice picked up the pistol from the maid's hand and pressed the magazine release button; the pistol still had three bullets left.
"There is a traitor!"
Alice looked to the side; the car in front was nowhere to be seen. This was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune—Ms. Sainz, Amelianxie's scientific genius, was out of danger.
The car then crashed into a nearby grove of trees, where it was completely deformed and on fire. The people inside had no chance of survival; they were probably already dead.
Two pistols, two cars full of people opposite, and possibly more.
"Miss President, run! I'll hold them off here!"
