The next morning, Eisen woke up to a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Gao Tianjun and Counselor Zhuang standing at the door, fully dressed.
"Pack your things immediately and come downstairs in 10 minutes. Our schedule has been adjusted and we will return to China today." Gao Tianjun said to Aisen.
"Is the inspection here over?"
"To ensure your safety." Gao Tianjun said with a serious face, "Hurry up and prepare."
The attack that occurred at Mary's house a few hours ago, and the final confirmation of the identity of the attacker, was a wake-up call for Gao Tianjun and Counselor Zhuang. Especially for Gao Tianjun, he would not be able to bear the responsibility if something unexpected happened to Aisen abroad.
Responsible. He had promised Li Zhanxiong for this.
Therefore, less than an hour after the attack, Gao Tianjun urgently discussed with Counselor Zhuang, Guo Rui and others, and decided to temporarily cancel the remaining trip of the inspection team in Amesbury and the UK, and take the same day's flight back home.<
/p>
Counselor Zhuang immediately informed the embassy and booked a return ticket for the inspection team - British Airways flight 4577.
Guo Rui notified Bald Harry of their decision to adjust their itinerary, and asked him to readjust the security plan and escort the inspection team to the airport.
"I've already killed that guy! Besides, it's only over an hour from here to Heathrow Airport, and it's broad daylight, so it will be very safe! Of course, I will still escort you all the way to ensure that you arrive at the airport safely." Baldhead.
Harry said.
When Easton and Martin learned that their inspection trip to Amesbury had been hastily suspended, their reactions were very different. Easton knew full well that this was an impromptu decision that China had to make because of last night's attack. And Martin
He arrogantly believed that they had not found a clue here yet and could not be disturbed by this attempted attack. He made exaggerated gestures and said to Gao Tianjun:
"Mr. Gao, we are a scientific expedition team. Our purpose here is to verify the relationship between crop circles and Eisen's hallucination. It would be too hasty to go back so soon! I don't know what my colleagues will think of us!"
If you have decided to return, can I stay on my own? I will take full responsibility for my own actions."
"This is not your business alone, Dr. Martin!" Gao Tianjun said. "Since you are now an expert hired by our '601', you must unconditionally accept all our arrangements, and we must also be responsible for your safety.
Unless we obtain an official statement from the IAWG announcing the termination of cooperation with '601', after that, you can make your own choice."
Although Gao Tianjun's words were calm, they made Martin feel a little shocked. He shrugged and was speechless.
When a group of people got into the car, they saw Dr. Winnie and Katz walking from the direction of the town center. Bald Harry stepped forward to take Winnie's backpack and threw it into the back seat of his off-road vehicle.<
/p>
"Superintendent Harry, Mr. Katz happens to be going to Heathrow Airport," Winnie said. "I have promised him to ride in your car. We still have some issues to discuss on the way."
Bald Harry glanced at Katz without comment.
"If it's inconvenient for you, I can also call a taxi myself." Katz said to Winnie.
"Get in the car!" Bald Harry waved to Katz without any enthusiasm.
Ding Yushi saw Winnie and walked over to say hello: "Dr. Winnie, are you also going back to London?"
"Yes! I originally wanted to use this opportunity to communicate with you, but it's a pity that you suddenly decided to go back!" Winnie said helplessly. "I hope I didn't scare you last night."
"How could it be? Dr. Winnie, my bald Harry is here!"
Ding Yushi shook hands with Winnie and said: "This time is really too short! You are welcome to go to Kunlun Snow Mountain next time, and I will definitely accompany you!"
"Okay! I will definitely arrange it." Winnie said, taking out a USB flash drive from her small bag and handing it to Ding Yushi. "This is some research information from our CCCS on the crop circle incident and Stonehenge. I hope it can be used
Here to help you! This information has rarely been made public before!"
"Oh, really?! Thank you so much!" Ding Yushi said excitedly. She took the U disk, opened her backpack, and put the U disk into the compartment where her passport was kept.
"CCCS is a very open research institution," Winnie continued. "We are very happy that more people from the world can come to the UK to study crop circles. For this reason, we hope we can cooperate more in the future!"
The inspection team bid farewell to Mrs. Mary and left the town of Amesbury in a commercial vehicle. Bald Harry drove the off-road vehicle ahead. It was 8 o'clock in the morning when they set off. If everything goes well, they will arrive at Heath around 9:30.
Luo Airport.
Perhaps everyone was still immersed in the unexpected incident the night before, and few people opened the topic along the way. Easton seemed a little bored, so he began to tell everyone about the historical allusions of England. From the Anglo-Saxon immigrant branch to the British royal family
From the contributions of Newton, Darwin and Shakespeare to human civilization, to the legendary experience of Hawking...
Easton talked with gusto, but Martin found it boring and closed his eyes to rest.
"I often ask myself this question," Easton finally said, "If Newton had not been hit in the head by that damn apple, if Darwin had obeyed his father and inherited the family business and became a famous doctor, we would still be doing this today.
Perceive the universe and life from a narrow or even biased perspective?!"
"Haha! Easton, you finally told the truth!" Martin suddenly opened his eyes and shouted.
A layer of gloomy mist shrouded the sky over Salisbury Plain. The morning sun was filtered by the haze and its dazzling light was filtered out. It looked like a piece of white paper that had been rounded by scissors.
There are few vehicles on the road leading to London. On both sides of the road are continuous harvested wheat fields and occasional groves. Due to the lack of light, it presents an almost black-and-white pastoral scenery.
Eisen was looking out the window in a trance, and did not hear what Easton and Martin were saying. Not long after driving, he had a feeling - or a premonition - that the bald Harry in front of him would be involved in a car accident! Such a feeling It would even become a visible scene, constantly flashing before his eyes. He didn't know whether it was due to the impact of the accident last night, or whether it was due to his extraordinary precognitive ability that had often appeared recently. He has been nervously paying attention to the situation along the road.
"Aisen, did you have a good rest last night?" Ding Yushi, who was sitting next to him, asked.
"It's nothing, I've had a good rest." Aisen looked away from the window. "Yushi, I feel something will happen again..."
"Have you had a premonition again?" Ding Yushi stared at him and asked quietly.
"Well, we need to pay more attention to the car in front of us!"
At this time, Ding Yushi saw a trailer driving slowly in the middle of the road 200 meters ahead, carrying a harvester. She had already heard Bald Harry's off-road vehicle honking its horn.
"There's something wrong with the car in front!" Eisen muttered.
"It seems something is wrong! Everyone, sit down!" Guo Rui, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said almost at the same time. He seemed to have been alerted to something.
As expected, the incident happened just a few seconds later——
Just as Bald Harry's off-road vehicle and the inspection team's commercial vehicle were forced to slow down due to the obstruction of the trailer in front, a truck suddenly rushed over from behind the two vehicles. Guo Rui saw that the situation was not good and the driver had not yet reacted. He quickly reached out and grabbed the driver's steering wheel with one hand to make an emergency evasion. The commercial vehicle was only brushed aside by the truck, but the car also turned around due to the sudden change of direction. It was about to rush down the roadbed and fell into the ditch. , under the joint control of Guo Rui and the driver, he finally hit a tree on the side of the road and stopped.
Because the commercial vehicle turned around when it stopped, the passengers did not see what happened immediately after they were hit - after the truck scratched the commercial vehicle, it directly hit the car driven by Bald Harry. The rear of the off-road vehicle. At that time, Bald Harry's attention was entirely focused on the trailer in front, and he failed to take precautions against the truck that suddenly rushed from behind. Under the violent impact, the off-road vehicle collapsed and rushed down the opposite roadbed. Finally, it rolled over in the weeds on the roadside!
The whole process happens in just a few seconds...
Just as the driver and passengers of the commercial vehicle were in shock, Guo Rui shouted in a low voice: "Attention! Everyone, please get down!" After that, he quickly opened the door and jumped out of the car, took out a pistol from his suit, and hid it behind his back. Move close to the body of the car and observe the situation on the other side of the truck and off-road vehicle that caused the accident.
The truck that caused the accident was parked on the side of the road, and the people in the car were silent for the time being.
The driver's door of the off-road vehicle was being pushed open with difficulty. The first thing that stretched out was a hairy arm, and then Superintendent Harry's bald head was revealed. His forehead and cheeks were already bright red.
The doors on both sides of the front of the truck opened, and two people got out of the truck, one on the left and the other on the right. One of them stood by the car and glanced towards the commercial vehicle, but did not find Guo Rui. The other person went directly to the off-road vehicle.
He walked away from the car and took out a pistol from his waist!
When Guo Rui saw it, he turned around and motioned to the driver to open the side door of the commercial vehicle. He gave Gao Tianjun a look, which meant that the people in the car should get out of the car quickly and hide in the grass in the ditch by the roadside, and he would be responsible for covering them! p>
Gao Tianjun understood and immediately ordered the members of the inspection team and Counselor Zhuang to get out of the car and hide. When Ding Yushi got off the car, she was still holding her backpack tightly in her hand... All this happened on the other side of the car, the man standing next to the truck.
People have no idea.
Bald Harry leaned out of the car and saw the man walking toward him with a gun raised more than ten meters away. He clearly remembered that this was the man he had spared in Belfast. p>
"Ivan?!" Bald Harry quickly took out his pistol and pointed it at Ivan.
"Nice to meet you, Superintendent Harry!" Ivan also pointed the pistol at the bald Harry and said with a smile. "I'm sorry that we met in this way today. I don't want to be your enemy - you have ever had
Thank you for your kindness. Today I just want to ask you to do me a favor..."
At this time, two people came over from the trailer parked in front, both carrying automatic rifles.
Bald Harry raised his hand to wipe the blood that flowed from his forehead into the corners of his eyes, and continued to use the car as a cover, aiming his gun at the opponent. "Ivan, I'm warning you, don't do anything stupid!"
"Let's make a deal," Ivan continued. "As long as you hand Katz over to me, I can ensure the safety of all of you, including your Chinese friends."
Bald Harry glanced at Winnie and Katz in the back seat of the off-road vehicle. Winnie had fallen into a coma, and Katz was staring at him, his eyes glowing red like a jackal...
"This is impossible! And you can't even think of escaping this time!"
Ivan sneered and said: "Mr. Harry, please understand your situation, and you should think clearly about the consequences of your confrontation. This may cause diplomatic disputes!" As he spoke, he looked towards the commercial vehicle.
He glanced in the direction, as if to remind the other party of something.
"Were you responsible for last night's attack?"
"Yes, I don't deny it! Although Tony messed up last night, our game is not over yet! Do you think so?!" Ivan said and took a few steps forward. "Frankly speaking, Harry
Superintendent, I really don’t want to embarrass you, you’d better get Katz out quickly!”
Guo Rui heard clearly the conversation between bald Harry and Ivan. Although he already knew that the target of the attacker was not members of the inspection team, he still watched the development of the situation with a gun. After all, once there was a firefight between the two opposite parties, what would happen?
Accidents may occur. However, he cannot take any action at this moment. He must ensure that the inspection team is on the temporarily neutral side.
Guo Rui made a gesture to Gao Tianjun and the others who were hiding by the ditch, telling them that there was no danger yet and motioning them not to move. Gao Tianjun and Ding Yushi were protecting Aisen on the left and right. After seeing Guo Rui's gesture, he followed
Ding Yushi exchanged glances.
Ding Yushi supported Aisen with one hand and tugged on her backpack with the other hand, which contained a USB flash drive given to her by Winnie that recorded important information about the crop circle. She had been listening carefully to the conversation coming from the other side of the highway.
Because of the distance, some content could not be heard clearly. She wanted to lean forward a little, but unexpectedly she stepped on the mud and slipped. She instinctively let go of the hand holding the backpack and hurriedly grabbed the miscellaneous things around her.
Grass, but accidentally dropped the backpack into the ditch...
