Cooper is willing to talk, which can save him a lot of trouble.
On the contrary, if the other party is always unwilling to talk, it will not be beneficial to Zhang Pin or Bourne.
As America's largest intelligence agency and the largest intelligence agency in the world, the energy Langley can mobilize is terrifying.
And there is another key question.
At present, the dispute between him and Bourne and Langley is just a business matter.
Because everyone has different interests, the current dispute has arisen.
If the situation continues to escalate, when the conflicts begin to become irreconcilable and become life-and-death, then no matter whether it is Zhang Pin or Bourne, even if they can continue to win, their lives will no longer be peaceful.
Especially since they are individuals and Langley is a collective.
When the time comes, no matter how much the opponent loses, as long as they win once, it will cost them their lives.
Zhang Pin has never liked gambling, and naturally he doesn't like to make things irreconcilable.
Unless he now has the ability to directly destroy America, otherwise, the more killings he causes, the more powerful the counterattack force will be in the end.
Temporary compromise is inevitable for Zhang Pin.
Of course, this kind of compromise does not mean that he can only give in.
Langley is a collective, and its indestructibility is naturally a disadvantage. However, just because Langley is a collective, it also has advantages for Zhang Pin.
That is, the number of people who have conflicts of interest with him is limited.
If Langley is really unwilling to negotiate, then he doesn't mind sending away all those who are unwilling to negotiate.
But at this critical moment, Zhang Pin is not willing to take this risk.
"Would you like to shut up?"
Cooper was a little surprised when he heard Zhang Pin's words, and he even looked at Bourne specifically.
When he saw it, Bourne simply chose to remain silent, obviously acquiescing to Zhang Pin's statement.
"Actually, a large part of the reason for this conflict between us is the misunderstanding caused by the lack of communication."
Zhang Pin nodded.
He didn't lie just to negotiate peace with Langley.
For him, many things were really just a little misunderstanding, which finally led to what they are now.
The same is true for Bourne. He has served Langley for so many years. If it weren't for his amnesia, it would be impossible for him to betray Langley.
"Misunderstanding! You are saying that our Asia Hong Kong branch and Bangzi branch were destroyed, and hundreds of members were attacked and martyred. These are all misunderstandings."
"Our European intelligence stations were destroyed one after another, and more than a dozen military attachés and intelligence officers died. This is also a misunderstanding."
"We lost four elite commandos and a group of intelligence agents in Luoji Mountain. This is still a misunderstanding."
"You are now leading the commandos out, then entering the stronghold and coming in front of me. This is also a misunderstanding."
"You betrayed Langley's undercover list in Eastern Europe. Is this considered a misunderstanding?"
Hearing Zhang Pin say that both parties ended up like this because of misunderstandings, Cooper couldn't help but ask the questions in his heart.
"Of course, these are all misunderstandings."
Zhang Pin is so thick-skinned. He has no embarrassment at all for Cooper's doubts.
"In fact, if you look at these things carefully, you will know that every action we take is just a passive counterattack. This time we came to the stronghold, it was the only time we took the initiative. But this time we took the initiative, we came with the attitude of peace talks, and
In order to avoid killings, we transferred the operational members from the stronghold."
Zhang Pin's words make no sense at first sight. After all, if you calculate it carefully, there are hundreds of Langley elites in the hands of him and Byrne, not to mention the economic and messy losses behind it.
If you really want to study it carefully, this is definitely an astronomical figure.
But thinking about it carefully, what he said seems to be not unreasonable.
After all, when these things are taken together, it seems that most of them were initiated by Langley first.
The actions of Zhang Pin and others are not wrong to define as counterattack.
"This is not a matter of right or wrong. Langley's majesty cannot be challenged."
Cooper did not follow Zhang Pin's lead and say too much.
As a master of intelligence, he certainly knew that this incident was unreasonable.
As a behemoth, Langley is naturally on the opposite side of many people.
For the vast majority of people in Langley, they don't care about the so-called fairness and right and wrong. As long as they block the road, they must be removed.
They were even able to break up the Mao Xiong back then, let alone Zhang Pin and Bourne, who could only represent themselves.
"Then there's nothing to talk about."
Zhang Pin also discovered that although Cooper was the confidant of Langley's interlocutor, he obviously had no independent decision-making power.
Cooper: ""
When Cooper heard Zhang Pin's words, he was silent for a moment, but did not give an answer that could be discussed.
He didn't even dare to say anything to temporarily stabilize the two of them, because besides him, there were several clerks in this room.
If Cooper dares to take it upon himself to agree to negotiate peace with Langley's enemies and traitors, he will be punished if the news gets back, even if it is false.
Unlike a loner like Jason Bourne, Cooper's ability to reach where he is today cannot be entirely due to his ability.
Now because of Bourne's incident, his faction has lost a lot of voice.
If he chooses to compromise because of his fear of death, the consequences may be more serious than if he died.
"Okay, it seems like you can't make the decision yet, so I'll go talk to someone who can."
When Zhang Pin saw Cooper like this, he knew that he had found the wrong target this time.
Although Cooper is the commander of the spy operation, he obviously does not have a high say within Langley.
Whether it was the issue of Bourne's identity or Zhang Pin, who was listed as a stumbling block, the other party had no right to deal with it.
"Sorry, I would like the contact information of the person in charge of the Stumbling Block Project."
Zhang Pin passed Cooper and walked into the room. Because they walked in, there were several female clerks who were huddled in the corner and did not dare to move.
Although Cooper was the commander of the Stepping Stone Project, he was obviously not the initiator of the project.
If nothing else, at least he is not old enough. After all, the Stepping Stone Project has been around for many years since the Cold War.
So behind Cooper, there must be someone who really controls the Stepping Stone Project.
And this person is obviously not Langley's boss.
After all, in a key department like Langley, it is impossible for one person to hold the position of commander for a long time.
After hearing Zhang Pin's words, several women couldn't help but tremble, but no one cooperated with his words.
Click——
"A few of you are still very young, and we just want to talk to each other. I believe you can serve Langley. You should be smart people."
No one answered. Zhang Pin directly clicked the bolt of the pistol, loaded the pistol manually, and then looked at the women.
"Ah, don't shoot. I know the phone number. I'll give it to you."
Under the threat of life and death, someone who was usually just a clerk responsible for data processing immediately stepped forward.
"Albert, his name is Albert!"
While the woman wrote down a phone number, she also did not forget to tell Zhang Pin the name of the person in charge of the Stepping Stone Project.
"Thanks."
Zhang Pin accepted the other party's kindness with a smile, then took out his mobile phone and dialed the number.
"I'm Albert."
The other person's voice sounded very majestic.
"Hello, my surname is Zhang, Zhang Pin. Have you heard of my name?"
Zhang Pin got straight to the point.
"Mr. Zhang over at Hong Kong City, Bourne is with you, right?"
After hearing Zhang Pin's self-introduction, Albert on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment. He didn't know whether he remembered Zhang Pin or someone had reminded him.
He even guessed that Jason Bourne and Zhang Pin were together.
"Yes, we are now at your stronghold in Luoji Mountain. Originally, I wanted to find Mr. Cooper for peace talks, but he couldn't make the decision, so I thought it would be better to talk to you. You won't let me
Be disappointed, Mr. Abbott."
Zhang Pin didn't even hide it and openly told the reason for his call.
"Peace talks? That would be the best, Mr. Zhang."
When Albert heard Zhang Pin say that he wanted peace talks, his first reaction seemed to be that he was happy. He didn't know if the other party was pretending or if it was true. At least in terms of attitude, he was much better than Cooper.
"Very well. Most of everything that happened before was caused by misunderstandings. I would like to express my sincere apologies for some shortcomings and irreparable regrets."
"I hope that after the two parties have come to an agreement, everyone can move forward in different directions. It is best that no one should influence anyone anymore. What happened in the past should not be pursued again. What do you think?
Mr. Albert."
Zhang Pin directly expressed his request regardless of whether the other party was really happy or pretending to be happy.
"I don't have much opinion on this, but Mr. Zhang should also know that I have to give an explanation to my superiors for this kind of matter."
When Albert heard Zhang Pin's words, he did not immediately object.
Instead, he first agreed and then put forward a condition.
"Oh, if Mr. Albert has any conditions, just ask."
Zhang Pin was also ready to hear what Albert's conditions were.
"It's like this. Both Mr. Zhang and Bourne are very capable people. Langley has always respected capable people like you."
Albert first took a detour and praised Zhang Pin and Bourne, and then changed the subject.
"Cooper took many people to Luoji Mountain to deal with Bourne's matter. Now that Mr. Zhang and Bourne are both at the stronghold, as long as you two can get out of the stronghold building, the grudge between us will be over.
.”
Albert's conditions did not go beyond Zhang Pin's expectations. As expected, the other party wanted to use his men to try again to see if he could kill the two of them.
Crunch——
Buzz buzz——
Just when Albert finished speaking, there were bursts of car braking and the roar of engines coming from downstairs.
Apparently during the time they were communicating with Cooper and Albert, someone had already notified the members of the action team who had been out in the field.
Now the people who went out have rushed back through the outer gate.
"Okay, then it's settled."
Zhang Pin was not afraid of being surrounded by Langley's field team.
Instead, he smiled and agreed to Albert's request, then hung up the phone.
"As long as we fight out, it will be over."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Pin looked at Bourne.
"Do you still remember where the weapons depot of this stronghold is?"
Bang - bang bang -
"follow me!"
When Byrne heard Zhang Pin's words, he didn't show much expression. He first gave Cooper a few hard blows until he fell to the ground, then turned and walked towards the door.
Bang——
But just as he walked to the door, the wooden door of the room was suddenly kicked open. Even though Bourne reacted quickly, he still flew out.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang——
Da da da da da——
Then a barrage of bullets poured from the door.
When Zhang Pin faced the attack, he did not forget to kick Cooper away to prevent him from being beaten into a hornet's nest by bullets.
Just as Zhang Pin kicked Cooper away, Bourne, who had just been kicked out, was still in mid-air and had already raised his gun and started shooting towards the door.
Bang bang bang——
At the same time as Bourne fired, the shooting rhythm of the gunman who had just fired at the door was immediately interrupted. It was originally a blind shot, and the accuracy was almost invisible. Now with Bourne's interference, the gunman at the door subconsciously moved aside.
Drive to dodge bullets.
Then Zhang Pin didn't give the opponent a chance to shoot again, he pointed the gun directly at the door and pulled the trigger.
Bang bang bang——
When the gunmen regrouped and fired in this direction again, what greeted them were naturally the bullets fired by Zhang Pin.
"Ahh——"
After several gunmen were shot and fell to the ground, the gunmen outside the door were not sure whether they were frightened and did not dare to show up again, or the people behind them did not follow, so the scene became quiet for a while.
Zhang Pin and Byrne looked at each other, and Byrne glanced at the several frightened clerks in the room.
Zhang Pin shook his head and rejected the other party's idea of silencing him.
When the gunman at the door opened fire just now, he had no concern for these people.
Moreover, Zhang Pin really had the idea of peace talks this time. Whether he rescued Cooper just now or left these clerks alive, he was showing his sincerity.
Of course, the more important thing is that these people are not a threat to him at all, so there is no need to kill them.
When Bourne saw Zhang Pin shaking his head, he stopped insisting and stood up and walked towards the door.
"Be careful."
Seeing how reckless the other party was, Zhang Pin stood up and grabbed the other party, then picked up a chair and threw it towards the door.
Boom——
Da da da--
Bang bang bang——
The chair was only halfway flying when a series of bullets smashed it into pieces.
Obviously there was no one at the door, but they were just waiting for Zhang Pin and Bourne to go out.
"Very good, remember to follow me."
Seeing this scene, Zhang Pin was not afraid, but smiled.
Then he reminded Bourne, picked up a chair again, and threw it towards the door again.
The moment he threw the chair, Zhang Pin also jumped out.
