Just when Wei Ran rushed to the Artists Union Academy under the leadership of Tantu, joined Suisui and others, and visited the school under the leadership of Kou Kou and Taxi, the parade in the 10th arrondissement of Paris was still continuing.
But Herbert and Edward, whom Wei Ran bumped into unexpectedly, had already separated, heading to different destinations with their little tails that they didn't notice.
In the relatively chaotic 18th arrondissement of Paris, Herbert walked alone into the Saint-Ouen Flea Market, where security was not good.
The security here is not very good. There are many pickpockets during the day and many thieves at night. And no matter pickpockets or thieves, they don't mind being a robber when the time and situation are right.
But it was obvious that Herbert was quite familiar with everything here, and even greeted each other politely when he met several old thieves.
When he stopped again, he was already standing in front of a shop selling antique jewelry and used clothes. He took out the key and opened the locked rolling door.
Watching him walk into the store, a girl who was following the Succubus Company and was currently in the assessment period walked into a cafe diagonally opposite like an ordinary tourist, and also sent her the address of the store.
companion.
Soon, two white girls who were going to the market together walked into the shop talking and laughing. Taking the opportunity to choose clothes and jewelry, they quietly bought a cigarette box-sized bag that was about the same color as the floor.
The toy car was stuffed into the gap under the shelf.
After some haggling, the two girls bought two skirts and several worthless trinkets from the shopkeeper who was absent-minded but obviously in a good mood at a low price they liked.
At the same time, Weihan's former employer Edward had also driven away from the chaotic Tenth District, entered the adjacent Third District, and drove straight into a quiet Jewish community.
During this busy day, Wei Ran spent most of the day with the girls at Kou Kou's school. By the way, he also tried the school's cafeteria, and got unanimous reviews - it was better than most restaurants in the UK.
The taste is much better.
Before nightfall, everyone returned to Kou Kou's luxury apartment. A little later, Tan Tu also picked up the kid Matthew who had finished school.
He once again took out the sword from Antarctica and conducted some inquiries and communication. Not surprisingly, Wei Ran got an answer from Monica that was almost identical to that from Taxi.
As for Matthew, he used the procrastination technique very maturely - his parents are still working in Antarctica. Even if he wants to ask their opinions, he has to wait for them to come back. Regarding the sword, he can't talk on the phone.
Li told them that it would cause them trouble.
Although the issue of the sword has not yet been properly resolved, and even the sword is being passed around in the hands of the girls, they start to comment on it like jewelry.
But Weiran got a lot of news from Anfiya.
"Boss, do you still remember the photo album you bought in the UK?"
In the game room, Anfiya, who was called by Weiran on the pretext of unstable network to help with debugging, asked while taking the Coke from Weiran.
"Is it related to that?" Wei Ran raised his eyebrows.
“It has a lot to do with it”
Anfiya opened the Coca-Cola and took a sip, and then while typing on the keyboard of her laptop to help optimize the network here, she explained in German, "Today the girls found Herbert's house and put a monitor in it.
and monitoring equipment.”
At this point, Anfiya stopped what she was doing, looked up at Wei Ran and said, "Do you still remember the couple who adopted the three children and used them for sex business in the photo album we investigated?
They are a pair of doctors working in an orphanage."
"If I remember correctly, they seemed to have died shortly after they were released from prison?"
"right"
Anfiya nodded, "Mr. Edward did it. When I was monitoring Herbert this afternoon, I heard him mention it when he called someone.
The original words were this, 'We must find those things before Edward and try to blackmail him, otherwise we will be killed by his hired men like the pair of greedy doctors.' And we have no intention of accompanying him in his revenge.
.”
"So Herbert has accomplices?" Wei Ran asked with a frown.
"Already investigating"
Anfiya replied, "There is no result yet, but it shouldn't be difficult. It's just that we don't have too many people in France, so it's slowing down the progress."
"Speaking of this, besides jewelry stores, where else can we find our girls?" Wei Ran asked with interest.
"Elks Foundation"
Anfiya replied in a low voice, "In fact, even the Gubijing restaurant in Italy, the dessert shop in Kiev, and Makar's farm have our girls working there.
Of course, a considerable number of local girls are currently operating industries within the country, and not only are they profitable, but they have also attracted many local homeless young girls as peripheral members."
Seemingly satisfied with Wei Ran's surprised look, Anfiya continued to explain with great enthusiasm, "In the future, they will be spread across every corner of the world like dandelion seeds blown by the wind."
Just be happy...
Wei Ran murmured in his heart, but did not rashly intervene in the sisters' arrangements for Hela.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't care where the breeze he fanned would blow Hela and the succubus girls.
He just needs the organization led by the twins to provide the help he needs without causing trouble for him - he doesn't even care whether those Hela girls and Succubus girls are loyal.
As for whether these girls, after work, would also consider subverting the United States and controlling the President of the United States as their ultimate goal... none of his business! He is not the President of the United States.
Picking up the game controller again, Wei Ran said casually, "Be safe and don't get into trouble. Especially this time about Herbert. Since it has nothing to do with us, don't expose it."
"What if it involves us?"
Anfiya asked one step ahead, "Considering that you bought those photo albums in public, I'm worried..."
"If there are hidden dangers, expose them in advance..."
At this point, Wei Ran snapped his fingers, "No, no, no, let's keep an eye on Herbert and Edward. If they are about to find those things, they will find a way to grab them. If they can't grab them, they will be exposed and those two people will be exposed."
Ruined together as a scumbag.
I have a hunch that what makes Edward willing to pay for murder is probably not just a few scandalous photos. What they are looking for may also contain some secrets that even Herbert doesn't know about."
"no problem"
Anfiya nodded immediately, "What is the expected goal?"
"Control Herbert, control that Mr. Edward, and get what they're looking for."
Wei Ran said without mercy, "This gives us two more masks, but the premise of all this is not to be exposed."
"We will be very cautious," Anfiya assured immediately.
Hearing this, Wei Ran also shook the game controller and said with great interest, "Please help me ask Taxi or Matthew later to see who is willing to play games with me."
"I see"
Anfiya had already stood up with her notebook in her arms while she was talking. However, Wei Ran's nonchalant look made her feel inexplicably powerless and slightly frustrated.
Sure enough, the newly born Hela still had an insurmountable gap with the other intelligence network secretly controlled by her boss, so much so that he didn't even care about their recent achievements.
Of course, if she knew that at this time, a certain historian was imagining that one day in the future, he could arrogantly say "Secretary Card, I want all the information on this person in five minutes." This arrogant and childish statement,
He would definitely roll his eyes to the back of his head speechlessly.
On the other hand, Wei Ran completely relaxed after learning that Herbert and Edward were not plotting against him or the people around him.
In a blink of an eye, the day came on the 15th. Before the weekend, Weiran and the girls headed by Suisui boarded the plane bound for Kazan while being sent off by Kouko, Monica, Aniya and others.
flight.
Of course, although they came back, Wei Ran temporarily left the sword at Kou Kou's house for safekeeping on the pretext that it would be difficult to cross the border.
Although neither Aniya nor the Katenka sisters, who had handed the small self-defense pistol to Wei Ran the night before, did not believe it at all and even scorned it, Suisui, Kou Kou, Taxi, Monica, etc.
I didn't feel anything was wrong.
As for Marta, Lu Xinda, Lola, Matthew, and the housekeeper Tantu, they don't care.
Not to mention the fatigue of traveling on the road, when Weiran and his team were about to land in Moscow for the last transit, the 18th arrondissement of Paris, France, was shrouded in night.
It was also in this night that Herbert and his two companions drove a van to District 11, which has many taverns. They parked the car at the door of a tavern with a clear purpose and turned off the lights.
The engine waits patiently.
However, Herbert and his two companions did not know that in addition to the few young men who got off the large van that parked next to them, there were several other young men hidden in the carriage.
Slightly thin figure.
The driver of this large van is the Hela girl from the parade jewelry store.
When the night was getting darker and darker, and the two young men stationed in the pub were about to get into their Fiat car after finishing their work, the door of the van next to them was pulled open with a loud crash.
Immediately afterwards, amidst the sound of stinging electric current from the electric shock device, the two young men, who were probably barely adults, also trembled and collapsed to the ground.
However, before the three Herberts could carry the two young men who were shocked and convulsed into the car, the door of the large van next to them also opened.
Under the dull gaze of these three people, three stun guns stretched out from the dark carriage, and electric needles were hit on the backs of the three of them almost simultaneously.
Amidst the faint sound of electric current and the uncontrollable trembling of the three Herberts, they lost consciousness under the stimulation of the electric current before they had time to see who was ambushing them.
A French version of a mantis stalking a cicada and an oriole was quietly performed. Behind them, three girls whose faces were covered by their clothes emerged from the carriage. They first carried the two young men onto the three Herberts.
In the van, Herbert and the others were packed into the Fiat car of the two young men.
After a while, the two vans left the spot one after another and disappeared into the night.
After transiting in Moscow, when Wei Ran and his team returned to their home on the shores of Kaban Lake in Kazan, it was already noon. Mrs. Samantha, the wizard housekeeper who had received the news in advance, also prepared a sumptuous lunch for everyone.
.
In addition, she also told Wei Ran through Lu Xinda's translator that someone had sent him a gift a few days ago, and it was now in the basement of the library.
"It should be Mrs. Kate from the UK," Wei Ran, who was busy dealing with the dog, guessed somewhat hurriedly.
“Just go and see and you’ll find out!”
Suisui had already put down her luggage while she was talking, and ran towards the library with the other girls who were also curious.
"There's news from Paris."
Anfisa, who was one step behind, whispered, "There is good news and there is bad news."
"Say it first"
Anfisa responded in a low voice, "Herbert planned to kidnap the two boys in the album in advance, but we rescued them. What they were looking for were actually a few CDs, and they have been found."
"Where's the bad news?" Wei Ran asked casually.
"Two pieces of bad news"
Anfisa paused, "The two boys are infected with AIDS, and Herbert is dead."
"died?"
"Our people are right. Herbert died in his own home."
Anfisa spoke slightly faster and said, "The monitoring equipment left behind by my sister captured the whole process of Edward coming to the door to find Herbert, the two having a quarrel, and even Edward strangling Herbert to death with his help.
"
"There's internal strife so soon?" Wei Ran couldn't help but frowned, "What's on the CD?"
"I don't know yet." Anfisa shook her head. "The CD will be sent back in about a week."
"Will the secret be leaked along the way?" Wei Ran asked cautiously.
"Won't"
Anfisa confidently made a promise, "Those CDs will be flown into the country together with a pet, and the whole process will be monitored continuously from the moment they are obtained."
At this point, the two people walking at the end had already arrived at the door of the basement. Then they heard Suisui shouting happily, "Come here and try it! It's delicious cider! There are several large barrels!"
Hearing this, Wei Ran grabbed Beria, the dog who was still so happy that he almost took off on his tail. He waited for Anfisa to go in first, and then walked in with the dog.
As soon as he entered the basement, he saw six oversized wooden barrels placed in the basement.
At this time, the girls headed by Suisui were lining up in front of one of the barrels, each holding a champagne glass, waiting to receive the wine.
“These wines taste really good”
While Suisui was speaking, she had already handed a champagne glass half full of fruit wine to Wei Ran.
Taking the cup and clinking it with the girl, Wei Ran took a sip of the mellow fruit wine, but couldn't help but think of Mrs. Barbara who committed suicide.
"This wine tastes good, what's its name?" Wei Ran asked with a smile.
"It says it, but I can't read it."
Suisui, who drank more than half of the glass of fruit wine in one gulp, pointed to the German words on the barrel and said, "But this wine is really delicious, fragrant and sweet. I feel a little dizzy after drinking it, but it doesn't smell of alcohol."
“It’s a very nice name”
Wei Ran glanced at the name printed on the other side of the barrel, and the smile on his face grew stronger.
"What's it called?" Suisui asked after drinking the remaining fruit wine in the cup.
"Waiting for Lily Marlene"
Wei Ran smiled and said, "Lily Marlene is a song. Look, those wine barrels still have the lyrics of that song printed on them."
"Now that you have some good wine, you must have a good story, right?"
Suisui let out a small wine burp, pointed to the wine barrels with a smile that were enough to stuff her in and stuff a Lola in there, and asked, "About those fruit wines and that song, oh,
And the story of the buoy, I want to hear the historian’s version.”
"Not a good story this time"
Wei Ran said, walked to the wine barrel that was set up, opened the faucet installed on it, and drank another glass of sweet fruit wine for himself and Suisui. Then he walked back and said, "Let's go, let's go
Have lunch and tell stories about the cider and the buoy."
"The historian's version," Suisui reminded with a smile while taking the wine glass.
"No problem, the historian's version." Wei Ran assured with the same smile.
On this sunny afternoon, many girls moved the dining table and various delicacies to the yard under one of the oak trees that dogs and foxes were no longer allowed to use as latrines. They also brought extra fruit wine, enough for everyone to drink, and ate while eating.
, while listening to Wei Ran telling stories about the buoy, the fruit wine in the cup, and the tailor shop.
After drinking and finishing the story, the girls each fell into silence. Especially Marta, the field doctor who was brought back from the Wudong battlefield by Wei Ran and Suisui, felt the helplessness of those in the story.
pain.
"It's not a good story, but it's a story worth remembering."
Under the setting sun in the evening, Marta lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and sighed. This story is far more detailed and cruel than the contents pieced together in the suicide notes that Mrs. Kate found.
"Will this story be made into a movie?" Suisui, who was already heavily tipsy, asked.
"I don't know that"
Wei Ran spread his hands and said, "It depends on the outcome of the communication between Lawyer Carlos and Mr. Culp."
"Speaking of this"
Greva, the gangster leader who joined the party halfway, drank all the wine in his glass and said, "I couldn't interrupt the story Victor was telling just now, but during these days when you are not at home, there is a middle-aged man
The man came to visit several times."
"What's the matter?" Wei Ran asked.
"Didn't say"
Greva spread his hands, "He only said he wanted to see you, but he didn't tell us his name or leave his contact information. He only said he would come to visit us again."
"What does he look like?" Wei Ran asked.
"It looks like this. I found it on the library's surveillance system."
Greva said, took out his mobile phone and sent a relatively clear video to Wei Ran.
Unfortunately, this video of less than ten seconds did capture a person, but this person was not only wearing a peaked cap, but also a mask. Moreover, the video only captured a side face, so he was the only one who could see
What was reached was only half of the opponent's mandible.
"How many times has he been here?" Wei Ran raised his head and asked Greva, who was sitting opposite.
"Two times, about a week apart. Each time he was...Mr. Victor, he's here again."
Hearing this, Wei Ran and many other girls turned around and looked in the direction of Greva's finger. Then, they saw a retro and classic Ural sidecar motorcycle driving into the yard of the library next door.
Rather than wondering who the helmeted person on the motorcycle is, what is more eye-catching is that there are three small flags that are not too big on the front of the sidecar of the motorcycle - the Soviet flag, the Russian flag,
