In Columbia, the capital of South Carolina, on the top floor of a high-end hotel in the most prosperous area of the city, Suisui and Anfeisa arrived in advance, as well as the rich young woman Kouko who was just watching the fun, and even her legal advisor and housekeeper Horta.
Already occupying 4 of the only 12 suites on the top floor.
Near noon, Wei Ran, who arrived by car, ignored the reporters following behind him, took the elevator upstairs alone with a small amount of luggage, and checked into the room Suisui had reserved in advance.
Behind him, Anfiya, who was acting as the driver, did not go upstairs. Instead, she followed another car driven by her sister Anfisa and left the hotel and drove straight to Yigu, a large hotel not far away but not too close.
supermarket.
When they found two adjacent parking spaces in the far corner of the parking lot, Anfisa immediately got into her sister's car.
"Yours," Anfiya said, handing a small PSS pistol and two spare magazines to her sister sitting in the passenger seat.
"Provided by the boss?"
While Anfisa responded, she stuffed the pistol and the magazine into her bag, then opened the car door that had just been closed, and walked to the large supermarket with her sister who also got off the car.
"I got it just outside the city at a service area where a lot of freight trucks are parked."
Anfiya paused and reminded pointedly, "It's exactly the same weapon as the one we used in Austria. The one I used even has the smell of the perfume I sprayed on it."
"So the boss really controls a big and scary intelligence organization?"
While looking around, Anfisa frowned and muttered in Italian, "But isn't the cost of transporting weapons from Austria to the United States too high?"
"Perhaps it's a very simple thing for the boss," Anfiya guessed in a low voice, "Do you remember the bonus we received from the boss at that time? He didn't know we were two people at that time."
"of course I remember"
Anfisa trembled subconsciously and murmured to herself, "And last time, it only took him a few days to find out Mr. Dominic's illegitimate child that he didn't even know about.
I'm really curious about how big the boss's intelligence network is. It's simply even more exaggerated than the intelligence network my mother described."
"Do you think this time will be a test for us by the boss?" Anfiya, who was very imaginative, said in a low voice while looking at the cars parked around her, "A test...a test of whether we are qualified to control Hela, or whether we are qualified to control Hela.
Say, test whether the HeLa organization is worth cultivating? "
"If it were a test, wouldn't it be too easy?" Anfisa frowned and muttered.
"This is just the beginning." Anfiya paused and told her what Wei Ran asked her to do before departure.
"Creating an alibi? And creating the illusion that the illegitimate son asked him to meet?"
"The latter wants to hide it from Sister Aurora."
Anfiya reminded, "I guess the boss needs to do something very important. Maybe this trip to the United States to help investigate the illegitimate child is just a cover."
Hearing this, Anfisa raised her beautiful eyebrows, and then looked at her sister, who had been deliberately keeping different makeup, hair, and clothes since she became Suisui's assistant.
After a pause, she smiled and asked, "Who will pretend to be the boss if necessary?" "I will do it."
Anfiya smoothed her ear-length hair, "I need a wig and clothes exactly like the boss's, and I need heightening insoles. In addition, we need to help the boss get a fast enough car, so maybe we need to go there tonight.
Bar hangout."
"I'll help you prepare clothes and a car."
As Anfeisa spoke, she took out a room card and handed it to her sister, "I had already visited here before you arrived. There is no surveillance or lighting around the open-air parking lot where we parked, but the supermarket is open until now."
It’s 10 p.m., and there seems to be a discount after 9:30.”
"clear"
Anfiya took the room card and put it in her pocket, turned around and walked to the parking space in the distance, and drove her car in the direction of the hotel.
at the same time
Wei Ran, who had already checked into the hotel, was browsing the English news on the website with the "assistance" of Suisui's translator.
Thanks to the paid reporters who arrived in the United States yesterday, the historians from China hired at a high price of 2.88 million U.S. dollars, as well as lawyer Carlos’s words that poked at the lungs of Americans during the interview, can be described as guards.
Ran was at the forefront of the news of the day.
If you only read the comment section of the news, you would say these Americans are smart. Some of those comments try to stir up racial hatred and threaten that Asians have made money. How many people will the United States suffer because of the arrival of an Asian history scholar?
Incomprehensible remarks such as how many people have lost their jobs have a lot of supporters.
But you may call these Americans stupid, but at least on the Internet, there are people who accuse Wei Ran, a historian who has made a lot of money, as a greedy liar, and there are people who accuse the Gravitt family of being mentally ill because of their incest.
No one expressed any dissatisfaction with Carlos' lawyer who deliberately set fire to the situation.
"It seems that Lawyer Carlos is indeed notorious," Wei Ran, who apparently could not understand English, joked while looking at the comments on the computer.
"Can't"
Suisui, who was leaning in Wei Ran's arms, said happily while drinking iced Coke, "Everyone knows that you, a historian, and that Gravitt family will not really prosecute these bastards who speak wantonly on the Internet, but Ka
Ross is a lawyer, and he will really send a lawyer's letter."
"How about I also entrust lawyer Carlos to send some legal letters?" Wei Ran asked jokingly.
"forget it"
Suisui pointed in the direction of the door, "I just heard Kou Kou say that not long after you entered the suite, several reporters with cameras moved into the room diagonally opposite to ours and the room near the elevator entrance. Now
Your location is public to almost the entire internet."
"So what?" Wei Ran said pretending not to care. "I checked on the way here."
Suisui reminded seriously, "South Carolina is ranked sixth among the top 10 shooting incidents in the United States. I don't want those bastards who you sent a lawyer's letter to come over at night with guns and show us the United States."
Dream."
"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say it."
Wei Ran put aside the tablet in his hand, pretending to be cowardly, "We will stay in Columbia City in the next few days to see if the illegitimate child will send someone over, so if you have anything you want to play,
You can arrange whatever you want."
"With those reporters?"
Suisui decisively chose to abandon the obstructive Wei Ran, "Forget it, I'll go out with Kamei and Kou Kou. I don't want to be followed by so many shots. What if that illegitimate child kidnaps me?
manage."
"The situation you mentioned is not impossible."
Wei Ran also grinned. He had already thought of this situation, but with the Katenka sisters here, he didn't need to worry too much.
"So just concentrate on making a nest in the hotel to catch illegitimate children." Suisui, who was gloating at the misfortune, had already stood up and walked to the bedroom of the suite. While changing clothes, he said, "I'm going to take Kamei and Sister Kou with me later.
I won’t take you with me when I go shopping."
"I don't know if the illegitimate child will come..."
Wei Ran muttered to himself but didn't take it to heart. It didn't matter whether it came or not. Anyway, his focus this time was not to help others fight for family property.
Compared with these, he has been thinking about another thing. When he finds the bell ringer, whether to kill him after asking all the curious things, or to find a way to bring him back to Russia's No. 33 Fishing Ground.
If it's the former, not only is it simple and risk-free, but it can also secretly satisfy your curiosity.
If it is the latter, it is not difficult. Before setting off to the United States, I had met the son of Qianfu Zhonggu, the son of the Assault Qianfu Zhonggu. Now I have gotten to know the son of Guanshan Yuzizhong Wan through the express delivery. Now I have met him through the express delivery.
Nineel, the self-proclaimed eccentric.
If he is trustworthy, he can naturally give him the information and clues about the bell ringer and let him worry about this problem. Even if he chooses this way, he may not need to take the risk of going to Charleston himself.
After much thought, he finally chose the third way to deal with it - ask Teacher Dalia.
The reason why he made this choice was not only out of compassion, but also to earn favors. As for how he found out about the bell ringer, Wei Ran believed that with the habits of those teachers, there was a high probability that they would not.
This curiosity.
Thinking of this, he immediately took out the authenticator he took out of the food box along with the weapons handed to the Katenka sisters in the service area on the way to the service area, and connected it to his laptop.
I sent an email to Anfiya.
Anfiya, who had almost driven the car into the hotel parking lot, pulled over and stepped on the brakes when she heard the message prompt.
After logging into her email and looking at the message from Weiran, the girl switched to the WeChat interface and sent a message in Russian to Lola, who was staying in Kazan, "Remember to ask auntie to help me feed our pets."
Fortunately, although there is an 8-hour time difference between the two places, Lola obviously did not sleep, and within less than half a minute, she responded to the expression of a little fox making an OK gesture. Seeing this, Anfiya's
There was also a trace of satisfaction on his little face.
By the Kaban Lake in Kazan, Lola, who was drinking beer and eating late-night snacks with Sui Xin, took out a paper towel and wiped the sauce from the corner of her mouth, stretched out her little hand and asked, "Sister, can you lend me your phone?"
good?"
Sui Xin, who was watching a drama, put a lobster tail dipped in red oil into her mouth, picked up the cold beer and responded nonchalantly, "Take it and use it."
"Thank you sister!"
The sweet-tongued Lola thanked her first, then picked up Sui Xin's cell phone and dialed Dalia's number skillfully.
Even though this dim-faced little girl put all her thoughts on her sister Korava and the coffee business in the library next door, how could the Katenka sisters tolerate this girl's idle life?
So even without anyone's arrangement, the Katenka sisters assigned Lola an emergency contact job, and had already agreed with her on various nicknames. Not only Lola's partner Sui Xin didn't know about this,
, even Wei Ran and Suisui don’t know.
Soon, Dalia drove to the already closed Time Library late at night, met Lola who was waiting in advance with her dog Beria, and walked into the basement of the library with her, and walked into the place where
There is a server room.
While Daria waited quietly, Lola pulled out the platinum necklace with bullet casings and longevity locks from the collar of her tight-fitting T-shirt, took off the authenticator hanging on it, and followed the steps Anfiya taught her.
Connect it to the server.
After a while, the LCD screen placed on the table displayed a simple webmail interface.
At the same time, a message indicating that the connection was successful also appeared on the laptop in Wei Ran's hand.
After thinking for a moment, he tapped on the keyboard and asked in German, "If I catch a traitor, should I try him directly or conduct an interrogation? If it's the latter, is there anything you want to know?"
Almost at the same time that he sent this email, Lola also stuffed the platinum necklace with various small objects into the groove on her chest again, patted her mouth gently and yawned,
She led Beria, the dog who also yawned, and left the dark basement alone. In the room where the servers were placed, amidst the humming noise of the cooling fan, Daria read the unsigned letter.
, and after the 10-second countdown ended to automatically delete the email, she stood up immediately! In the dim light leaked from the screen, a trace of surprise and vigilance first appeared on her face, followed closely by disbelief.
of surprise and excitement.
After taking a few deep breaths, Dalia slowly stretched out her trembling hands, tapped the keyboard and responded with a short line of German, "Tell it that you are here to sound the death knell for it. If it can give
The list has been leaked, allowing him to commit suicide to save his family. Finally, be sure to ensure your own safety."
"Understood" Wei Ran responded with one word.
"The friend who planted the seeds together is completely trustworthy and can help you unconditionally."
Looking at the new email that popped up on the screen, Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief and typed
The keyboard, on this bright afternoon, responded with a "Good morning" that neither party could use.
"Good morning…"
Before Daria had time to type the word, the page on the screen began to jump automatically, and finally stopped at a page showing 404.
When she came to her senses, the computer also started the shutdown process. Until the screen was completely turned off and the server room was plunged into darkness, only the red and green signal lights were left flashing one after another.
"Thanks…"
Dalia murmured something, and walked out of the room holding on to the slightly warm wall in the dark. She closed the door gently, and slowly sat on the floor against the cold wall. She tried hard to suppress her crying in the dark.
of sadness.
At the same time, Suisui, who had changed her clothes, also pretended to put on a mask, sunglasses and a baseball cap, carried her cosmetic bag, opened the door, walked to the door of the room opposite where Kou Kou was staying, and pressed the doorbell.
Almost at the same time that she walked into Kou Kou's room and closed the door again, Wei Ran's eyes left the peephole, and then he went into the bathroom that he had checked and took out the food box from the metal book.
Opening the second layer of the food box, Wei Ran put on rubber gloves and carefully took out a small stainless steel box the size of a pencil case.
Speaking of which, this box was a gift given to me by Katenka when she first met her at Shudong Bookstore.
It's just that so much time has passed, but the 12 poisonous needles stored in this box have never been used. In fact, if he hadn't prepared for this trip to the United States, this box would have been locked away by him.
In the safe in the attic.
Gently opening the metal box, Wei Ran's hand lightly ran across the 12 metal tubes the size of his index fingers, and finally stopped on a metal tube containing strychnine poison.
According to the English label on the metal tube, it contains 20 milligrams of strychnine poison, which is double the lethal dose for humans.
Gently placing the locked metal tube on the top of the food box equipped with a night vision device, Wei Ran was not satisfied. He then took out the medical box and found a bottle of morphine and a bottle of morphine that he stuffed into the box.
Go for disposable syringes.
After collecting the medical box, he sucked the morphine into the disposable syringe, carefully capped the needle, and placed it on the top of the food box together with the iron tube that originally contained the morphine and the rubber gloves on his hands. Then he put it back into the metal book.
In the afternoon of that day, Suisui and Kou Kou took Anfiya, who acted as a guide and translator, out to explore this city that was completely unfamiliar to them, while Wei Ran, who stayed behind at the hotel, went downstairs alone, leisurely and contentedly.
After having a meal, I randomly selected an Asian female reporter whose appearance matched the aesthetic best and accepted the interview.
Not only that, he also pretended to let something slip during the interview, saying that he was going to find an American veteran who had also participated in the Vietnam War in Columbia City, and planned to ask some things from the other person's mouth.
He casually threw out some scraps of half-truth and half-false news to fool reporters who were also paid to do things. Then he returned to the room and waited patiently.
As night approached, Suisui, her rich girlfriend Kou Kou and their shared translator Anfiya also returned to the hotel early, nestled in Kou Cong's room and played mahjong they had brought.
In contrast, Anfisa, who took most of the day off in advance, did not return to the hotel until eight o'clock in the evening, replaced Wei Ran who had been deliberately losing money at the card table, and opened a bottle of specially bought
of agave as a bet.
Seeing that Suisui, a silly girl with a food addiction, was getting drunk again by his little assistant, Wei Ran just smiled, left Kou Kou's room with the handbag placed at the door, and returned to the opposite door alone.
guest room.
About half an hour later, all the lights in the suite were turned off, and in the bathroom, Wei Ran also put on the black sportswear prepared by Anfisa, and used cosmetics prepared by the other party, first using medical tape.
I got the thick lips that are the trademark of black people, and then painted my entire face, neck, hands and arms black.
Finally, he put on a pair of contact lenses that could disguise large areas of the whites of his eyes, as well as a mask and baseball cap that blocked his face. Only then did he stand in the dark.
I pushed open the bathroom window and tried to pull on an inconspicuous rope hanging from the roof. Using it and the fire staircase outside as cover, I easily climbed out of the window and climbed to the roof of the hotel.
Putting away this inconspicuous rope and an unknown mouse pad placed in the corner, Weiran ran to the iron door leading to the stairwell as quickly as possible, and quietly slipped into the safe place.
The passageway re-closed the iron door leading to the roof.
After listening for a moment, he took steps, one step at a time, from the top floor to the ground floor.
Without leaving the stairwell at all, Wei Ran glanced out through the half-open safety door, and then waited patiently.
Less than 10 minutes later, Anfiya, wearing high heels, walked out of the elevator and walked to the side of the commercial vehicle alone. She first opened the cab door and got in, but soon, she opened the door again and got in.
He came out, opened the door of the rear compartment, took out a pair of flat shoes and put them on the roof of the car, and then took out an unclosed parasol.
It was precisely with the cover of the open cab door and Anfiya's action of closing the parasol that Wei Ran, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately ducked out of the stairwell and got into the back car almost touching the floor.
inside.
Without waiting for his movements to stop, Anfiya also casually threw the closed parasol into the car. Then she took off her high heels and threw them into the car, and put on the flat shoes placed on the roof of the car.
"Clang!"
As the door of the rear compartment was closed, Anfiya got into the cab after changing her shoes, started the car and drove to the supermarket she had visited when she arrived in the afternoon.
While passing by the unmonitored area of the parking lot, Anfiya slowed down the car slightly, waited for the boss hiding in the car to jump out of the car and close the electric door, then immediately increased the speed and drove straight to the entrance of the supermarket.
Just when this girl was rushing to buy some late-night snacks for the little sisters in the hotel during the last hours of the supermarket's business, Wei Ran also climbed over the green belt and left the parking lot, following the instructions on the note left by Anfisa.
Like a real black man, he carried a bottle of wine prepared in advance and walked unscrupulously on the street.
Not long after, he wandered into the parking lot outside a bar not far away, and easily found a black Dodge Charger with a bouquet of flowers on the roof.
As if he was the real owner of the car, he pressed the car key and opened the door. With just a glance, he saw the fat man in the back seat who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, but was sleeping as if he was dead.
man.
With a silent smile, Weiran started the car and slowly drove out of the parking lot, heading straight for Charleston, more than 170 kilometers away, in the dark.
Fortunately, during the two-hour drive, he didn't even see a police car, let alone being stopped by the police.
With the help of the mobile phone navigation provided by Anfisa, Weiran stopped the car at a distance of one kilometer from the target location.
Looking through the rearview mirror, he glanced at the car owner in the back seat, who was sleeping soundly due to being drugged. Wei Ran gently opened the door and walked towards the coastline in the night.
Soon, he saw a white single-family villa surrounded by coconut trees less than a hundred meters from the coastline.
Although this two-story villa is full of Mexican style, it is not big, but it is extremely beautiful. There is also a beautiful swimming pool in the yard that reflects the starlight.
After listening to the lullaby-like sound of the waves in the distance for a moment, Wei Ran pinched his nose and trembling bones that were elevated with medical tape, squatted down, took out the food box under the cover of the bushes, and put it on himself first.
night vision device, and then put the metal tube and the disposable syringe filled with morphine into his pocket.
With the night vision device turned on, Wei Ran easily climbed over the one-meter-high fence in a fluorescent field of vision that was much clearer and brighter than in Grozny, and then easily picked the lock on the back door of the villa.
Before entering the room, he did not forget to put on the disposable shower cap he brought from Kazan to his shoes, and then he opened the door and walked in.
Thanks to the small area of this villa, the space on the first floor is also large at a glance.
Just watch it all.
And with the light from the door light that was on all night outside the main entrance, he could clearly see that there was a photo frame hanging on the wall of the living room on the first floor.
In this photo frame, there is a blond white man wearing a crisp suit and a high nose. On both sides of his body, there is a particularly elegant woman, a little blond girl, and a little boy holding a dog.
Having both children... I don't know how many people's blood was used to buy it... Wei Ran snorted secretly, turned around and stepped on the stairs, carefully walking up to the second floor.
However, the moment his eyes were raised above the floor of the second floor, he suddenly saw an old man in pajamas right in front of him, holding a small revolver and aiming it at him!
"Bata!"
With a soft sound, the lights on the second floor were turned on, and Wei Ran could see clearly the appearance of the old guy who had frowned. He even heard the faint and even sound of snoring coming from the bedroom behind the old guy.
