Chapter 26 The IMF’s performance
On the highway, the Optimus Prime truck is driving at a normal speed.
In the closed compartment, Jack and Ethan listened quietly. The sound of the helicopter above them became weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared.
"It seems we are safe for now." Ethan looked at Jack and said.
"Yes, but can you untie it for me first?" Jack shook the cuffs on his wrists.
"Of course." Ethan lowered his head and felt for the keys in his pocket.
"Man, who are you? Why do you want to save me?"
Of course Jack knew who the other party was. He had seen a lot of movie characters in the past two days. But he was really curious about why the other party saved him. It couldn't be because of the aura of the protagonist.
"Ethan Hunter, I am only responsible for taking action. There is someone else who wants to save you. You will know later."
After finding the key, Ethan was about to open it for Jack when the truck suddenly stopped.
The two of them stopped at the same time and listened.
There were faint voices outside, and then there was sudden movement at the tailgate. A few seconds later, the tailgate was opened and someone walked in.
The other person was facing the light, so Jack couldn't see the other person's face clearly. He could only confirm that there was more than one person walking in.
At this time, he looked at Ethan next to him, but found that the other person's face was very ugly.
As the visitor approached, Jack finally saw the other person's appearance clearly, and the leader was clearly Orlov.
"Haha, the world is really small, we meet again." Olof's face was full of fun.
Jack didn't dare to act rashly because everyone else was carrying a gun.
Next to him, Ethan wanted to resist, but before he could make a move, he was held down by Olof's men and then punched in the face.
"Let them be quiet for a while."
After Orlov finished speaking, he turned and left. His men took over his place, raised their guns, and with two "pops", Jack and Ethan felt like they were stabbed by something.
He vaguely saw a dart stuck in his arm. The feathers on the tail of the dart were white. He looked at the dart, then at the guy who shot him, and then lost consciousness.
I don’t know how long time passed. In the daze, something seemed to be ringing in his ears, and Jack’s consciousness gradually returned.
My eyes slowly opened, and what I saw was the white ceiling, and the incandescent lamp was tirelessly emitting a soft light.
The noise Jack heard was a TV hanging in the corner, and the news was playing inside.
Jack looked around. This was obviously a ward. He was lying on a stretcher, with some sensors attached to his body, and various instruments monitoring his vital signs were piled next to him.
I wanted to sit up straight, but felt a restraint on my hands. When I lowered my head, I discovered that my left hand was handcuffed to the armrest of the stretcher bed.
Jack recalled the scene before he fell into coma and immediately realized that he might have fallen into the hands of the FSB again.
Just at this moment, the door opened and a voice came in: "You woke up earlier than I expected."
Olof's figure appeared at the door, with that mean smile still on his face.
"Don't be so surprised." Olof was very interested and continued without waiting for Jack to reply: "You must be wondering how we found you, right?"
Jack remained calm, but secretly activated his mind, preparing to find a way out.
"This is Moscow, the home ground of the FSB. No one can snatch people from the FSB here, not anyone..."
Olof talked eloquently: "This is a game from beginning to end. We just wanted to see if you had any other accomplices, and you saw the result. I have to say that they really value you. I can't bear it."
I want to applaud your plan to use subway tunnels to save people. How did you come up with this idea..."
Jack still didn't speak, but at this moment, the news screen suddenly switched.
"An emergency news here. The Kremlin revealed that the FSB conducted an arrest operation yesterday. They used the spies they had caught before as bait and successfully arrested two spies again. The identities of the two have been confirmed.
He is a formal employee of the CIA. The Kremlin has negotiated with the United States. The following is the official response from the White House..."
Then the camera switched again, and a picture of the White House spokesperson speaking appeared on the screen.
"We solemnly declare that we have never engaged in any espionage against Moscow. Everything that happened in Moscow this time has nothing to do with us. We ask the Kremlin to stop this kind of rumor-mongering, which will greatly affect the normal relations between the two countries.
..."
Orlov looked gloating: "Look, your country has abandoned you. They don't recognize this or your identity. You have sacrificed your lives for this country, but those sitting in the White House blowing the air conditioner
This guy will just let you die like bedbugs in a dark sewer. Is it worth it?"
He spoke with disdain. Seeing that Jack didn't speak, he paused and continued: "From a military point of view, I admire you very much, but your efforts are of no value.
Your friend has already recruited, that guy named Ethan Hunt, he is not as tough as you, and he also has the "Stumbling Block" plan, right? You didn't show up there just to save Pamela Randy.
Instead, kill her. I'm right. Look, I'm not trying to blow you up. I know more than you think.
And those two guys who are chasing you, if my guess is correct, they were sent by your organization to silence you. Tsk, tsk, tsk, how sad, your country has abandoned you, and your organization wants to kill you.
, and I can protect you. Now, tell me everything, this is your only chance to survive..."
After saying all this, Olof looked at Jack quietly.
Jack glanced at the huge mirror on the wall next to him, and the corners of his mouth twitched. From the moment he entered the door, Orlov used everything to convince him and make the belief in his heart collapse.
The White House's attitude is the first weight, Ethan's confession is the second weight, and the pursuit of our own people is the third weight.
Everyone has a rebellious mentality. Ethan has already been recruited, so why can’t I? The country has given up on me, so why can’t I be treason? My own people are chasing me, what else can I hold on to?
The collapse of faith is always due to one point.
Olof looked at Jack and found that the latter's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
An instrument next door suddenly beeped, and the woman in charge of monitoring shouted anxiously: "His heart rate is rising rapidly. Stop him quickly. He must have poison in his mouth. He is going to commit suicide."
..."
On the hospital bed, Jack was rolling his eyes and twitching. When Olof heard the woman's scream in the earphones, he immediately rushed to Jack and opened his mouth.
"Damn it, spit it out..."
Orlov thought Jack was seeking death, but suddenly felt a pain in his throat.
The severe feeling of suffocation caused Orlov to cough repeatedly, but at this time, Jack was not the same as before.
Jack took back the knife, quickly opened the handcuffs with the key found on Orlov, got out of bed, grabbed the gun, and then rushed towards the rectangular mirror on the wall.
The next second, break the mirror.
Violent gunfire rang out, and Jack used the pistol he grabbed from Orlov to knock down one person.
"Everyone put down their guns, or I will kill her. And you, I advise you to take your hands away, otherwise the bulletproof vest I will use next time will not be used."
Behind the broken mirror, Jack held Pamela Randy hostage with a gun. His last words were directed at Benji, whose hand was only a few centimeters away from the handle of the gun, but he did not dare to extend it any further.
Next to him, William was kneeling on the ground. The severe pain in his chest prevented him from standing up. Although the bulletproof vest blocked the bullet, the bruises caused by the kinetic energy were inevitable.
He was the quickest to react among everyone. He drew his gun immediately and was immediately targeted by Jack.
Jack saw that he was wearing a body armor and hit him in the chest with several shots. Although it could not kill the opponent, it was enough to temporarily incapacitate him.
There are a few familiar faces again. Of course his purpose is not to kill people, but to intimidate everyone.
In the room, Olof, who had regained his composure, slowly pulled off the mask on his face, revealing Ethan's handsome face.
Sure enough, these guys are tricking themselves.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, wondering where they had slipped up, causing the other party to suddenly attack.
On the other side, Jack held Pamela hostage and took two steps back to distance himself from everyone.
