173: Chapter 173 You think you can just leave without paying me back?
No one expected that Lin Heng, who started as a major criminal under ironclad evidence, could still turn the tables!
At this moment, he had even become an idol and a hero to everyone!
The USA Ambassador felt that this whole situation was so surreal that it was somewhat hard to accept!
“I do not agree to this!”
The USA Ambassador found such a result hard to stomach. He quickly waved his hand and roared like a sore loser.
However, not a single person present paid him any mind. Instead, the lackeys following the USA all showed somewhat embarrassed expressions on their faces.
If the USA Ambassador asked them for a reason later, many of them probably wouldn't be able to answer.
After all, the things that the Ambassador of the Football Country... oh no! The Football Country Warlord and Drug Lord had done were things even they didn't dare to disclose directly.
After the USA Ambassador finished venting, he glared viciously at Lin Heng.
He said without even raising his head:
“You say the Ambassador of the Football Country is a Warlord and Drug Lord, and you've all agreed to that, so I have no problem with it.”
“However!”
“The person before us is an international war criminal. Do you really intend to let him go scot-free like this?”
“Do you know how much economic loss Lin Heng's appearance has caused us?!”
“No one can deny this, right?”
He thought the USA Ambassador's words would rally the atmosphere of the entire room...
Yet, unexpectedly, the USA Ambassador's words not only failed to move anyone but even drew a wave of contempt.
Many Ambassadors, including those from the Eagle Country and the Bear Country, were internally rolling their eyes at the USA Ambassador.
This guy really dares to say anything...
Instead of saying Lin Heng harmed their interests, it would be more accurate to say Lin Heng directly harmed the interests of the USA!
Since only a small portion of them had suffered, the majority of them were still perfectly fine.
Calling him an international war criminal was just the USA taking the lead because they felt Lin Heng had meddled in their affairs and hindered their ability to make money...
In fact, many of them had gained some benefits, more or less, because of Lin Heng.
For example, last time in Saudi Arabia, Lin Heng commanded the battle and provided weapons support, enabling the Saudi Royal Family to defeat the USA warships...
Because of Lin Heng's contribution, they were able to buy cheap oil directly. If the USA had actually succeeded, the price of that oil would likely have doubled!
Not to mention the other things Lin Heng had done...
The Ghost Mercenaries were so famous internationally, and they weren't the type to only care about money.
Lin Heng's Ghost Mercenaries had even helped them resolve local disasters.
Some thankless tasks were simply not a problem for Lin Han's Ghost Mercenaries; they took the money and left, clean and efficient!
The only people who suffered because of the Ghost Mercenaries were purely those who didn't pay or didn't keep their promises...
“You... what do you all mean??”
“Don't you think there's something wrong with Lin Heng? He's an international war criminal! If one day he attacks you, will you still be able to sit as steady as Mount Tai?”
The USA representative found it hard to accept the crowd's reaction.
He widened his eyes and questioned everyone present.
However, the many Ambassadors present only chuckled awkwardly upon hearing this.
“Ahem... I don't think you can put it that way. Those mercenaries are at least operating according to international practice; they haven't directly become terrorists...”
“Exactly, the Ghost Mercenaries he formed are good mercenaries who work for money. I've used them many times, and getting things done for money is what I call efficient...”
“Is it possible that the Ghost Mercenaries are actually doing good deeds?”
“Actually, I don't think you can count as an international war criminal, Lin Heng. There doesn't seem to be any direct proof or evidence to show that he is one, right?”
“...”
The people present engaged in a flurry of discussion.
By the end... what they were saying became more and more outrageous!
Even Long Anyou and Old Chen found it unbelievable.
Good grief...!
Did Lin Heng stuff them with money or something?
Why did it feel like something wasn't quite right??
Upon hearing this, the USA Ambassador's face became as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a live fly!
These damn guys...!
Lin Heng shrugged his shoulders slightly at this and said with a look of boredom: “It seems no one thinks I'm an international war criminal. In that case, does that mean you think I've committed war crimes?”
“I wonder if your country's laws should be amended according to international practice?”
“Also, about me being wanted previously, I wonder how the compensation for mental distress should be paid?”
Pfft...!
Good grief, he actually wants mental compensation fees?
Probably only Lin Heng could say such words.
Long Anyou and Old Chen quickly felt at ease after seeing the situation on the scene.
Initially, they were quite worried about Lin Heng, but now it seemed their worries were a bit redundant.
Instead of worrying about Lin Heng, they might as well take this time to care more about the USA Ambassador.
At this moment, the USA Ambassador was probably about to cough up blood from anger!
Long Anyou and Old Chen stole a glance at the USA Ambassador; his face was turning blue and red, his chest was heaving, and his eyes were practically spitting fire.
He was probably about to have a stroke from rage...
It seemed he was thoroughly infuriated by Lin Heng's matter.
Long Anyou and Old Chen hurriedly suppressed a secret laugh; with so many international media outlets present, they still needed to maintain their image.
After a light chuckle, Long Anyou and Old Chen quickly restored their facial expressions.
A picture of solemnity!
On the other hand, the USA Ambassador was fuming. He scanned everyone present.
Especially those behind him who had initially been on his side.
It seemed they were determined to stand in opposition to him.
Lin Heng got lucky this time and managed to escape!
Soon, the USA Ambassador gave a cold snort.
“Fine, fine, fine... consider yourself lucky this time, but there won't be such a good opportunity next time!”
After speaking, the USA Ambassador flicked his sleeve and walked directly out of the Dragon Country Embassy in front of everyone.
Everyone looked at each other.
Regarding the USA Ambassador's departing figure, they all pointed and whispered.
At this moment, Lin Heng called out from afar.
“Oh, right, USA Ambassador...”
“Umm, you haven't paid me my mental compensation fee yet!”
“Being watched by billions of people globally—did I give my consent?”
“With such a big incident happening, the impact on a University Student like me isn't good. You want to leave without paying compensation?”
