46. Guesswork

“Eve, can I get coffee and breakfast for two?”

The early meeting had turned into a busy workshop, so breakfast and strong coffee would be useful.

“My man in this city said that yesterday morning and afternoon there was a fight in the port, plus a very large fire, which burned almost all the main warehouses. Here, you can see the destruction in this photograph.” Mr. Lao handed to Nguyen the photo. “And, most interestingly, the Yankees took an active part in the incident. Their convoy entered the city, under the cover of helicopters, and they broke into the port and fought there.”

“Fought with whom, the Cartel? They are allies; they have everything under control…”

“I don’t know why. I don’t know the reason for it, and I don’t know how it ended. About three o'clock the Yankees came back, and everything was quiet until nightfall, but then it got dark, and they began to shoot again. Battles started all over the city. That was the last thing I received from my man, before I lost contact with him.”

Nguyen went to the window and looked at the morning city. All was calm.

“What do they say in the presidential administration and the Ministry of Internal Affairs?”

“They are pretending to know nothing. The Yankees are not commenting on what is happening.”

“The situation is very interesting.”

“Mr. Nguyen, what do you think will happen if it isn’t gang violence? Civil war? A coup attempt?”

“There’s something very serious happening, but I don’t think it is what you fear, Mr. Lao. It isn’t a revolution. I understand that you are responsible to your leaders in Shanghai for the fate of their giant investments in this country and therefore you are afraid of any changes in power, which could be arranged by the Americans. A new government may terminate the contract with your company on their orders. But the revolution would begin here, in the capital, or in one of the major cities on this side of the ridge.

“And all this happened over the ridge, in the territory that is actually beyond the control of central government. Plus a complete absence of any requirements, and information barrier imposed by the Americans. Typically, they prepare for such operations with powerful propaganda support, and here, on the contrary, there is complete silence. They are desperately trying to hide what is going on. No, it isn’t a revolution, there’s something else that we don’t understand yet. I think this is very serious, so I will give the order to gather all my men. I recommend that you tighten security on your assets, Mr. Lao.”

“I’ll give orders, wait…”

Mr. Lao took a small army-style phone from his pocket as it rang, and then listened attentively.

“Yes, of course, keep me posted. Call as soon as you have new information.”

“Who was it?”

“This was from the presidential administration. The Yankees have just made contact with the government. They say that there is a deadly epidemic in the valley, and there has been an urgent need to implement quarantine to prevent the further spread of infection.
