When she came down from upstairs, Michelle's face had returned to normal, and she still looked like a capable and strong woman.
"Everyone, come here and let's have a short meeting together!"
She went from room to room and called everyone into the dining room.
"Everyone, sit down, I have something to say."
As Michelle spoke, she took out several whiskey glasses from the kitchen cabinet and placed one in front of each person.
Then he took out a bottle of whiskey from the wine cabinet and poured everyone a glass of wine.
Returning to the front seat, Michelle raised her glass.
"Everyone, this glass is dedicated to Joyce!"
Everyone stood up, the air in the small restaurant was filled with a solemn smell, and the room was filled with a sense of ceremony.
Whether in the East or the West, there are specific ways to commemorate the sacrifices of our comrades.
The British intelligence agents, or their special forces, often go to the bar to celebrate their victory after each mission, or mourn the dead in the bar.
Although the Eastern and Western concepts of death are different, they have many similarities.
"Here's to Joyce!"
"Here's to Joyce!"
George and Connor were the first to raise their glasses and drink them in one gulp.
Qin Fei, Mist and Yuri also said "To Joyce" after they finished drinking, and then toasted.
Putting down the cup, Michelle said: "The superiors already know the situation here. Don't worry, I will personally write tonight's action report and send it back to the headquarters. If there is any responsibility, I will take full responsibility."
"Major, we can't let go of the people from the Cornerstone Project. They still have people in Joburg. Those who attacked our support detachment and secret base, as well as those who killed Joyce, must pay the price."
Connor interrupted Michelle.
Looking at Connor, who looked sad and angry, Michelle pursed her lips hard, and then said: "I have decided that at six o'clock tomorrow morning, we will take a private plane to the city of Cali, Colombia, where there is a new
As for Hugo, someone will be responsible for taking care of and protecting him until he is returned to London."
"Major! We can't let the blood of our comrades be shed in vain!" Connor still insisted on his opinion, "If everyone dares to make trouble on MI17, then we will have no deterrent effect in future missions! I believe that the people in the Cornerstone Project are
Those who know our identities are just pretending not to know!"
"Connor!"
With a loud shout, Michelle's eyes gradually became sharper.
"This is not a war between two countries! This is a secret war! This is a black operation rather than an officially recognized counter-terrorism operation! Not to mention recognized by other countries or even our own intelligence agencies! The Cornerstone Project does know who we are.
But I didn’t already know who they were! This kind of contradiction and hatred can only be achieved through everyone’s tacit understanding. We lost Joyce tonight, but they have died more in recent days. I
I believe that people from the Cornerstone Project will weigh their own strength and then choose to communicate with Baron Harvey through formal channels. Our goal is to decrypt the hard drive, not to get into a life-and-death war with the Cornerstone Project!"
"Did our people die in vain!? When we return to China, how can we explain to Joyce's husband and children!? Oh! God! I don't even know what I can say after meeting her husband!? I even
We can’t tell him that the person responsible for his wife’s death has already been paid with blood!”
Connor became excited.
Joyce is the intelligence analysis officer of the entire team, and occasionally works as a part-time driver. In the entire action team, although Joyce has only three years of work experience and is not considered a veteran, the friendship between everyone is that of a life and death relationship.
.
Now that he has died in Johannesburg, Connor's inner pain is of course hard to calm down.
"Connor, when you joined MI17 on your first day, you should have joined our industry. There is no real justice. Personal justice, sacrifice, honor and disgrace must all be subordinated to the overall situation! We are working for the country, not
Own!"
She pointed at the door and said loudly: "If you think there is something wrong with what I said, OK, you can keep your opinion and leave my group immediately. I can arrange for you to go to London!"
The atmosphere instantly solidified, and the room was completely silent.
Qin Fei, Mist, and Yuri were particularly embarrassed. They were not members of the MI17 action team. Strictly speaking, Qin Fei and others stayed here only because of Ms.
It is inconvenient for me to intervene in the struggle between them.
After a long period of silence and confrontation, Connor suddenly sat back in his chair and said no more.
"I know it's hard for you all, and it's hard for me too, but now is not a good time to sit here and cry like a bitch and demand revenge on others. The Cornerstone Project is so urgent and wants to get the hard drive. There must be their hard drive in it.
The reason is that the best way to fight back against them is not to kill them all with a gun. If you kill one agent, they will have many agents. Our top priority is to decrypt the contents of the hard drive!"
Michelle's eyes scanned everyone's face.
"Now that the real hard drive is in our hands, the fake hard drive has not yet been activated, and the key to opening the hard drive firewall lies with 'Professor' Morris. Our people have already deployed it in Colombia, but recently there has been
By accident, Garcia had moved Morris out of the city and to the outskirts of Cali, in the province of Cauca, Colombia."
As Michelle spoke, she motioned to George: "Go, bring the laptop over and retrieve the intelligence information near Cali City."
Qin Fei had talked to Lao Yu on the phone before and probably knew the situation there.
After Garcia transferred Morris, he went to the territory he controlled. However, Qin Fei did not understand why even MI17 seemed to be very cautious. This was difficult for Qin Fei to understand. After all, a department like MI17 had to deal with a
Even the biggest drug lords wouldn't be so scared.
"Major, what's the situation in Cali City? Why don't your people dare to act easily? Is it because they don't have the support of the local police?"
Michelle shook his head and said: "No, in fact, we have already contacted the Colombian government. They are very willing to cooperate in combating the drug lord group, but they are not willing to send too many troops to support themselves. They are only willing to provide logistics and
The surrounding peripheral security mission, because the entire Cauca province is not an ordinary province, it is the territory of the guerrillas."
"guerrilla territory?"
Michelle said: "Yes, the anti-government forces have always existed. This is an area where FARC is very active. Ordinary police forces are equivalent to death. The army sent troops there and failed to exterminate them. It also paid a huge amount of money."
A heavy price to pay.”
"FARC?" Qin Fei didn't know what organization it was, it sounded like an abbreviation.
Michel replied: "FARC is the abbreviation of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia. It was founded in 1964. This armed force was originally a very symbolic guerrilla force among the left forces in Colombia. Its original intention was to fight against the injustice of Colombian society.
Equality, in the 1980s, due to its involvement in illegal activities such as drug trading, hostage kidnapping, extortion, and assassination, it broke away from the Communist Party of Colombia and became an independent armed organization. It is currently the largest organization, the most complete equipment, and the best combat effectiveness in Colombia.
Guerrillas."
So many "most"s made Qin Fei raise his eyebrows. It would be very difficult to deal with a FARC, and with Garcia's drug trafficking arm, it would be even more difficult.
No wonder Lao Yu said that the situation in Colombia is not good, and even MI17 must be careful.
If you rely solely on your own mercenary group, it would be difficult to handle this matter. To deal with such a large armed group, you will definitely need the support of the local government, and here is the advantage of MI17. They have strong diplomatic strength.
Although the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets is not as glorious as before, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
"Okay, I can assemble my most elite team to support your operation, Major." Qin Fei smiled and nodded, agreeing to Michelle's request for cooperation.
Michelle said: "So, we will send our people to take charge of the main attack in this mission, and I also hope to get your help. Qin, as far as I know, you have many capable people. If your X
The mercenary group can use all its elites. I believe that by cooperating with our operational troops in South America, we can definitely rescue Morris. Time is very urgent. No one knows when Garcia will hand Morris over to Fan Tianlong, so we must hurry up.
According to the intelligence we have obtained, Fan Tianlong has sent his cronies to South America and will reach a final hostage handover with Garcia within three days. We must act before them." (To be continued)
