The surveillance showed that Mia Townsend went to the kitchen to get the Tom Yum Soup, then pushed the dining cart to the banquet hall. On the way, her phone rang, so she moved the cart aside to answer the call.
This process took about a minute.
She answered the phone in a surveillance blind spot.
A minute later, the surveillance showed her pushing the cart all the way to the side hall of the banquet hall, where she waited obediently.
"Mia, this matter concerns the normal diplomatic relations between the two countries. If you don't clarify what happened during that minute..."
Green Foer's words were cut off as Mia Townsend hurriedly pulled out her phone and handed it to Green Foer, saying, "Minister Green, you can see that I was really on the phone and didn't do anything else. I can also assure you that I kept the cart in my grasp the entire time."
Of course, they needed to look, and scrutinize carefully.
Green Foer grabbed the phone.
