Chapter 253 I'll Take Your Life

Her fingers flew across the transparent keyboard, casting a shimmering shadow under the transparent light.

Lin Xi watched the monitoring screen on the computer and sent out commands one by one.

Inside the island's cabinet, in a lavish office, a hurried figure appeared at the door, looking somewhat nervous.

"Minister, there is a lot of negative information about us online right now."

"How significant is the impact?"

"The others are alright, but there's one that's quite serious..." The person giving the report looked at the person in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and then simply handed over the phone.

Island nations are poisoning the ocean!

The minister's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, and he slid down.

The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan suffered a severe nuclear accident, resulting in the accumulation of large amounts of radioactive wastewater. Following an investigation, the plant began releasing contaminated water into the sea, initially discharging approximately 460 tons per day, a process that has been ongoing for a considerable period. It is estimated that the Fukushima Daiichi plant will take decades to decommission, during which time large amounts of radioactive wastewater will continue to be generated, meaning the discharge of contaminated water into the sea will continue for at least 30 years…

The minister grew increasingly alarmed as he read on. Seeing that the report had been shared over a million times in just half an hour, he was utterly shocked. He immediately stood up, slammed his fist on the table, and exclaimed:

"This incident should have been dealt with immediately upon discovery. How could we let it continue to escalate? Do I really need to teach you something like this?"

Upon hearing the voice, the person giving the report instinctively flinched, but still continued, "We intervened immediately, but this account is very strange. We can't find the publisher's information or location, and this report was precisely sent to every mobile phone or computer in the world, and we can't block it, so..."

After hearing this, the minister slumped onto the sofa, somewhat distraught.

Globally! It's spread all over the world!

At this moment, the entire cabinet was on high alert, and a loud voice came over the loudspeaker: "Everyone, assemble in the conference room in 5 minutes. No reason is acceptable for being late, or you will be responsible for the consequences."

"Everyone, assemble in the conference room in 5 minutes. No reason is allowed for being late, or you will be responsible for the consequences."

"Everyone, assemble in the conference room in 5 minutes. No reason is allowed for being late, or you will be responsible for the consequences."

The broadcast continued for three times before ending. The minister immediately jumped up and rushed to the conference room. Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Xi on the monitor. She was still sitting quietly reading a book as usual, as if she hadn't heard the sound, proceeding as if nothing was wrong.

Just as a strange feeling arose in his heart, he was urged by the people around him and hurriedly followed.

.......

Immediately afterwards, an official statement was released, claiming that the nuclear wastewater had been treated by the Multiple Radioactive Material Removal System (ALPS), and that all radioactive materials except tritium had been reduced to safe levels. The statement also said that the discharge plan met the safety standards of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and had been approved by the IAEA. The island nation's government also stated that it would cooperate with the IAEA and other international organizations to ensure the transparency and safety of the discharge process, invite international experts to participate in the testing, and make the relevant data public.

The government claims the emissions will have a negligible impact on the marine environment and human health, that the tritium concentration will be diluted to well below international standards, and pledges to continuously monitor the marine environment and organisms after the emissions to ensure safety.

This news was met with strong international opposition, especially from fisheries and environmental organizations.

However, this hurdle has been temporarily stabilized. People in the island nation's conference room, seeing that the social reaction had subsided, revealed disdainful smiles.

Even if they discover it, it still won't stop their emissions plans.

They also created various cute promotional materials related to tritium on different online platforms in an attempt to lower people's guard against tritium and confuse them about its dangers.

Just as they were relaxing and feeling smug, another message suddenly appeared, and everyone received it on their phones.

[Regarding the Fukushima nuclear power plant leak, there was indeed a leak of 220 billion becquerels of radioactive material!]

The total amount of nuclear-contaminated water leaked was approximately 5.5 tons, containing potentially 220 billion becquerels of radioactive materials such as cesium and strontium. This amount could cause leukemia in people worldwide, and 10 out of 16 critical valves were not shut off...

This news has escalated the nuclear contamination issue in the island nation once again, causing a huge uproar internationally...

The authorities came out again to explain and apologize, but still did not make any changes, and the matter continued to escalate.

Only then did the island nation's government realize that someone was probably watching them, and that all of this stemmed from Lin Xi's arrival.

Seeing Lin Xi on the surveillance footage again, day after day, their unease grew stronger. "Quickly, get Ying here for me."

These past few days, they had tried to get information out of her, but to no avail. So they could only let her be, since keeping her under their noses made them feel more at ease, and they put the matter out of their minds.

Lin Xi, who was originally leaning back on the sofa, heard the noise at the door, but didn't even look up, focusing intently on the book in her hands.

Upon seeing the woman's serene and beautiful demeanor, the visitor tiptoed in, careful not to disturb her. However, due to his mission, he still spoke softly, "Hello, Lady Ying, our Prime Minister requests your presence."

Lin Xi's eyelashes trembled, but she didn't reply, continuing to watch...

"Hello, Mr. Shadow, our Prime Minister invites you."

"Hello, Mr. Shadow, our Prime Minister invites you."

After being asked three times in a row, the person's patience was wearing thin, and a hint of anger flickered in their eyes as they were about to speak again.

"Let's go."

Lin Xi slowly got up, straightened her slightly wrinkled clothes, and said, "Lead the way."

"Ah, oh, okay...okay." The man was momentarily stunned, watching the woman's simple movements exude nobility and elegance.

Realizing what was happening, she immediately ran ahead to lead the way, glancing back every now and then. She saw Lin Xi walking lightly, as if strolling in her own backyard, relaxed and carefree. Her gaze was calm and composed, and the corners of her lips were slightly upturned with a faint smile. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was a guest.

As expected of the renowned Shadow, he can handle a country with such ease and composure.

They said it was an invitation, but nobody knew what the purpose of the trip was.

Lin Xi was quickly led to the conference room. Seeing that there were quite a few people sitting in the room, Lin Xi calmly found a seat, raised her head slightly, and looked at the person in the center.

No one spoke for a long time, and Lin Xi wasn't in a hurry. She leaned back in her chair, pretending to doze off...
