Happy Hour Hotel, the only hotel in the town of Orangemond.【26nbsp;】
The Happy Time Hotel is a three-story building. In this remote town filled with low-rise bungalows, it can be called a large building. Although the hotel is in some disrepair, it is still clean and tidy.
In a luxurious room on the second floor of the hotel, Frederick, the deputy leader of the Blue Team of Silver Hand, was lying on a hard double bed, holding a TV remote control in his hand and looking at an old-fashioned color TV on the table.
The program was constantly changing. Orangemond is a border town located on the seaside. The broadcast signal is very weak. The programs on the TV are either blurry, have audio but no pictures, or are simply filled with snowflakes on the screen.
point.
"Damn, what kind of bullshit TV show is this?" Looking at another program channel full of snowflakes on the screen, Frederick became angry, threw the remote control in his hand to the ground, and pointed at the 18-inch TV on the table.
The old-fashioned color TV set, shouted loudly. "Felix, is this the room you found for me? I can't even watch a TV show."
Felix was sitting on a wooden sofa with peeling paint, and was concentrating on contacting the various killers sent out. Suddenly he heard Frederick's yelling, Felix was startled, and hurriedly took off his head.
He put on the headphones, walked quickly to the table, bent down and picked up the cracked remote control. "Deputy leader, this is the most luxurious room in the Happy Time Hotel."
"Luxury." Frederick said with a straight face, patted the double bed vigorously, and roared with great dissatisfaction. "Damn, look at this bed, it's so hard that it makes my back hurt. Also, look at it.
The furnishings in the room include a double bed, a sofa, and a TV. Damn it, this room can also be called a deluxe room."
"Deputy leader, Orangemond is a border town. How can it be compared with a big city? Please give it a try. After we return to Europe, we can book you a presidential stay in a five-star hotel.
Suite, let you relax." Felix explained in a low voice with a smile on his face, while using the remote control to select a TV program.
After changing several program channels in succession, a movie channel with a clear picture suddenly popped up on the TV. Felix quickly walked to the bed, gently placed the remote control on the bed, and then said with a smile. "
Deputy leader, you can watch it, it’s still a movie.”
Frederick stared at the movie screen on the TV and asked, "Felix, what kind of movie is this?"
"Deputy leader, this is an American western movie, the title is "Unforgiven"." Felix paused and then introduced in detail. "The movie "Unforgiven" is about a story in the past.
A robber who retired from the world for the sake of his wife and children and lived in seclusion in a remote town. More than ten years later, because he was dissatisfied with the evil vigilante in the town, in order to avenge his friend, he single-handedly broke into the tiger's den and finally killed
That arrogant and domineering Sheriff."
"Sounds good." Frederick nodded, leaned on the bed, and watched the movie with squinted eyes.
"I like the heroic protagonist in the movie very much, especially what he said to the sheriff's men after killing the bad guys, which made people's blood boil." Felix cleared his throat and expressed his excitement.
He spoke solemnly about the lines in the movie: "Bullying a prostitute is unforgivable; killing my best friend is unforgivable; killing innocent people indiscriminately is unforgivable."
"Interesting, I have to watch this movie." Seeing Felix still standing by the bed, talking about the plot in the movie, Frederick waved his hand impatiently and said. "Felix
Lix, please contact your brothers as soon as possible to see how their search is going."
Felix nodded, put on his headphones, and connected with the various killers sent around the town of Orangemond. At first, Felix received some good news, and then bad news came one after another.
The messages came back one by one. Felix's face became increasingly gloomy. After contacting various killers, he pulled off his earphones and reported to Frederick in a panic.
"Deputy team leader, the brothers sent to the north of the town of Orangemond reported that they found a European. After careful questioning, they found that the European was a businessman and let him go."
"The brothers sent to the west of the town reported that they found four Europeans. One of the couples was a tourist. After checking their passports and air tickets, they were released. But in addition, they were released.
Two Europeans refused to cooperate and tried to escape, but they were shot dead by the brothers."
"Very good." A faint smile appeared on Frederick's face, and he nodded. "Tell the brothers that any European who appears in the town, as long as he cannot prove his identity and has even the slightest suspicion,
Then you can kill him."
"For this operation, the employer once proposed that everyone on the Mayflower cruise ship and the Granma cruise ship must die. If one person slips through the net, no matter whether the survivor has reported the two
If the true situation of the shipwreck is leaked, the deal between us will be immediately voided, and the agreed reward of 20 million US dollars will not be paid."
When mentioning the reward for this operation, Frederick shook his head and muttered angrily and dissatisfiedly. "Two cruise ships, crew and passengers, a total of more than 800 people, only paid 20 million US dollars in reward. Damn it,
The person responsible for negotiating the deal has been kicked in the head by a donkey. Killing a person and not earning 30,000 US dollars is like sending a beggar away."
Since the older generation of lone killers retired to the world five years ago, large and small killer organizations have emerged in the dark world. These killer organizations carry out assassination operations and no longer fight alone like in the previous era of lone killers.
It is organized and planned collective action.
Whenever a killer organization receives an assassination mission, members of the organization will jointly perform the mission. Some members are responsible for collecting intelligence, some members are responsible for spot investigation, and some members are responsible for assassination. Such division of labor and cooperation make operations more efficient.
, the assassination success rate has also been significantly improved.
As these killer organizations gradually grow, the division of labor within the organization becomes clearer. Each organization has a dedicated person responsible for external liaison. On the one hand, these liaison officers carry out external publicity and demonstrate the strength of their organization; on the other hand, they actively contact various customers to discuss cooperation.
.
Frederick complained angrily to the external liaison officer of the Silver Hand, then turned his attention to the TV and continued to enjoy the movie. After watching the movie for a while, Frederick suddenly found that Felix was still standing where he was.
He couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Is there any news?"
I have just received some news, and the two good news have been reported. Now the rest is all bad news, and each one is worse than the last. Felix tried his best to put on a smile and said carefully. "Deputy Team
Sir, we have bad news."
"You bastard, why didn't you tell me just now?" After hearing Felix's words, Frederick hurriedly sat up and yelled angrily. "Hurry up and tell me if someone has escaped. Damn it, 20 million
Dollars are gone if one person runs away."
"Deputy team leader, the brothers sent to the east of the town did not find any suspicious persons. However, after they separately entered the town and searched for a while, they found that two brothers were missing. Later, they found two brothers in a clothing store.
The bodies of the two brothers were found, and then they asked the merchants next to the clothing store for information."
Felix cocked his head and said hesitantly. "The merchant next to him said that not long after the two brothers entered the clothing store, they saw a Chinese man and a blond European woman walking out of the clothing store, and they took the
The two brothers parked their jeep on the side of the road and drove away. As soon as the two men left, the proprietress of the clothing store came out happily and told the merchant next to her that she had made a big fortune and that the two customers just now
I gave her 10,000 U.S. dollars. The clothing store owner also said that she was going to Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, to do business and she didn’t want this small clothing store.”
"A Chinese man and a European woman. Aren't there all European tourists on the Granma cruise ship? Why are there Chinese people?" Frederick frowned, thought for a moment, and guessed. "Could it be,
Is this Chinese man here to rescue this European woman?"
"I don't know either." Felix shook his head and said with a sad face. "Deputy leader, there is another bad news."
"What news?" Frederick asked.
"Edmund, who was sent to the south of the town to search for survivors, reported that the bodies of four brothers were found at the southernmost intersection of the town." Looking at Frederick's gloomy face, Felix couldn't help but gasp.
He took a breath and said nervously.
"After Edmund discovered the four corpses, he took his brothers and followed the jeep tracks on the road all the way south. Ten kilometers south of the town of Orangemond, there are Namibia and
There is a stone bridge on the Orange River, the boundary river between the two countries of South Africa, which is the only road leading to neighboring South Africa within a radius of 100 kilometers."
After hearing Felix's endless talk, Frederick frowned and said impatiently. "Damn it, don't talk about these useless things. Just focus on what happened at the bridge."
.”
"Early this morning, after we landed, I assigned the brothers to various places in the town of Orangemond. I also sent people to the stone bridge leading to neighboring South Africa. I asked the bald man Mike to lead
Five brothers were guarding the bridge, checking the passers-by." Seeing Frederick's face becoming darker and gloomier, Felix was afraid that Frederick would spread his anger on his head, so he hurriedly sent him
The credit is laid out.
After putting a layer of gold on his face, Felix continued. "After Edmund drove to the stone bridge with his brothers, he found that six brothers had died at the bridge head, and the bald man Mike
He died the most miserable death. Not only was his head chopped off, but that person also placed his head on the railing at the end of the bridge. Moreover, there was a line of large characters written in blood on the railing."
Felix stopped, glanced at Frederick fearfully, and then quickly lowered his head.
Felix talked a lot, but only half of what he said. Frederick suddenly became furious, glared at Felix fiercely, and cursed loudly. "You bastard, you have to do it."
I'm asking you, are you willing to tell me? Damn it, tell me quickly, what's written on the railing."
"Indiscriminate killing ofinnocent, kill without condone! (Killing innocents indiscriminately, kill without mercy!)" Felix said in a voice like a mosquito.
"Damn it, how dare you threaten our Silver Hand? This Chinese man is so ambitious." Frederick flew up and kicked the bed leg angrily. With a bang, the hard double bed
The bed suddenly fell apart, and the pillows, quilts, sheets, etc. on the bed were scattered all over the floor.
After losing his temper, Frederick gradually calmed down, looked at Felix and said, "After crossing the Orange River and entering the South African border, what is the nearest city?"
"It's a border town called Alexander Bay, twenty kilometers south of the Orange River." Felix answered carefully.
"How many brothers are there with Edmund who has arrived at the bridge now? Do they have transportation?" Frederick asked.
"Edmund bought a van, and there were three brothers in it," Felix said.
"Notify Edmund and ask them to immediately go to the small town of Alexandria Bay in South Africa to track down the two survivors who escaped in the jeep." Frederic paused and then ordered. "Notify Dominic,
Let him lead twenty brothers and rush to Alexandria Bay to cooperate with Edmund in tracking down the two survivors. After discovering those two people, he immediately killed them. The remaining brothers continued to search the Gramma cruise ship in Orangemond.
The survivors."
Felix raised his head and whispered, "Deputy leader, I have a small question."
Frederick frowned and said with great dissatisfaction. "What's the problem? Is my arrangement inappropriate?"
"No, no." Felix was startled, shook his head desperately, and then flattered Frederick. "Deputy leader, your arrangement is very appropriate. In my opinion, you are just
Like a general with outstanding military exploits, he arranged his troops in an orderly manner. This time we have laid a dragnet in Alexandria, and we will definitely find the two survivors."
Hearing Felix's flattery, Frederick smiled triumphantly and his tone of voice became much gentler. "You just said there is a small problem. What is it?"
"Deputy leader, Orangemond is a remote town, and it's difficult to find so many means of transportation at one time." Felix paused, then continued. "Also, people here charge very high prices. I
Edmund said that he originally wanted to rent a car, but the locals would only sell it and not rent it. As a result, he spent three thousand dollars to buy a second-hand van from a car owner, and that van
It’s long past its end-of-life date.”
"What, three thousand dollars to buy a shabby van." Frederick was funny and angry, and said sarcastically. "Edmond is really a talent. In this operation, we have to kill one person to win."
When he received a remuneration of US$30,000, he actually spent US$3,000 on a broken van.”
"Alas." Felix sighed and said helplessly. "Brothers are also in a difficult situation. In order to make our actions more concealed, we have to swallow the anger of the locals."
Seeing Felix's frowning face, Frederick became even more angry. He reached out and pulled out the silent pistol from his waist, and put the muzzle of the gun to Felix's forehead. "Felix
Si, is your head full of mush?"
"Damn, what else do you have in your waist? It's not a fire stick, but a pistol." Frederick looked ferocious, holding the pistol, and hit Felix hard on the forehead several times.
"Tell the locals that each car is worth a maximum of two hundred dollars, and if they don't sell it, they will be killed and they won't get a penny."
