The wood in the fireplace is burning brightly, and the room is as warm as spring, which is in sharp contrast to the ice and snow world outside the window.
"Captain." A SAS member walked out of the room and waved to James in the living room.
James gestured to the other three players, asking them to continue staring at Anthony on the sofa in the living room, and then walked into the back room.
"What happened?"
James frowned. He knew that the inner room was a surveillance room. There were more than twenty cameras installed around the safe house, including surveillance footage inside the house and even within a hundred meters of the surrounding woods.
"I guess something happened." Monitor Wright said to James, "All the surveillance footage was lost, and the two secret sentries on the periphery did not respond."
James glanced at the surveillance screen, which was full of snowflakes.
"Follow me."
The two walked out of the inner room. James picked up the MP5 submachine gun and said to his men: "You three stay here while Wright and I go out to take a look."
After that, the two of them came to the door cautiously. James gently opened the door and carefully checked whether there were any traps. After confirming that it was safe, he first stood out of the door and walked into the wind and snow.
At this moment, the two of them didn't notice at all that there was a pair of eyes on the roof of the two-story wooden house staring at them.
James and Wright covered each other and walked towards the outer sentry position.
It was already 12 o'clock at night, the wind and snow were very strong, and the vision was filled with snowflakes, so the two had to wear night vision goggles.
Simon held his breath and watched James and Wright walk away like a hibernating snake.
Snowflakes covered his entire body. Because he was wearing a snow tactical suit, he seemed to be integrated with the snow. The snow was equipped with a heat insulation function that could block infrared heat sources, so even night vision devices could not detect his presence.
As a top killer, he had long known that Alexanderkovic was just using himself as a pawn to disrupt the situation.
As for Chris, in less than a week since this poor guy came to his side, he has already realized that this person is definitely not just a member of some peripheral organization, he is a serious spy.
Of course, even Alexanderkovic had no way of knowing that Lilia and Simon had actually been together for a long time.
If having sex with Ximen before was just for the mission, then the relationship between the two began when Ximen was injured and recuperating at Lilia's house.
Love grows over time. Although this kind of plot is terrible, it has been tried and tested time and time again.
As a swallow of the KGB, Lilia has long been disgusted with this kind of life without tomorrow. As a desperate hero, Ximen not only brings Lilia a sympathy for each other, but also the original attraction of a strong male to females.
Besides, Ximen is very handsome.
Most women have little resistance to handsome men, no matter who they are.
Tormented by her feelings, conscience and professional ethics, Lilia finally let her feelings take over. She told Ximen everything she knew, including the KGB's plan to use him to establish a powerful peripheral organization that could interact with OTAN at any time.
Intelligence service confrontation.
Simon had nothing at that time, and he felt that the whole world was betraying him, including Anthony and Eric, whom he regarded as a brother.
To make a comeback, the easiest way is to rely on a powerful organization, not to mention a department like the KGB, which is a great way to the sky.
Therefore, Simon accepted Alexanderkovic's invitation and joined his army to become the leader of the gravediggers.
The day Operation Stockholm was issued, Ximen knew that the opportunity had come.
He guessed that if the preliminary operation of infiltrating the charity gala was successful, when he proposed the conditions for meeting Anthony, MI6 and CIA would definitely bring Anthony to Stockholm to prevent the situation from worsening. After all, it was far away from the Holy Cross Brothers in Berlin.
Meeting is not far away.
This is the consistent way of doing things in intelligence agencies - prepare for the worst for any sudden situation.
What's the worst case scenario?
That is, if everything that happens on the island cannot be organized and Korolev cannot be sacrificed, then Anthony will be thrown out as the last pawn to save his life.
After the incident broke out, MI6 and the CIA had already conducted various tests and analyzes on Ximen. Many intelligence analysts believed that people like Ximen would most likely not be under Alexanderkovic's control.
He will rebel.
If this is the case, Ximen's desire for revenge is real, and asking the OTAN intelligence organization to hand over Anthony is not just a cover.
According to this speculation, sacrificing Antony would obviously cause Simon to stop his actions and release the hostages.
However, other intelligence shows that Ximen does not have complete control over the entire Gravedigger.
This concern was one of the reasons why M and Patsy did not choose to hand over Anthony in the end. It was not just because Anthony had captured too much black intelligence.
Everything seemed to be guessed by Simon one by one. When he staged a big drama of kidnapping hostages on the island, Lilia had already been active throughout Stockholm, using all her previous resources to prepare the weapons needed for Simon.
The vehicle also collects intelligence on Anthony's arrival.
When the dinner scene in the castle was still a mess, Ximen escaped from the sewers. While the attention of the entire country and even the city was focused on the castle incident, he unknowingly fell in love with Lilia, who had been waiting in the alley.
The car then drove towards the MI6 safe house on the back side of the city.
The plank road was built in the open and crossed to Chencang secretly.
This plan was almost perfect, but Ximen would never have guessed that his only flaw was that he did not expect that the young girl named Xiao would not be surrounded by country Z bodyguards at all, but a serious top-secret force.
Squad.
Ximen finally began to move his body slowly.
He had to be careful. One of the people in the room was the famous MI6 agent. Most of those guys were recruited from top special forces such as SAS or SBS. Their tactical literacy was absolutely extraordinary. As long as he made a few mistakes,
will be killed.
Breaking in by force is definitely not the first choice. The assassin is not a Rambo-like character. If we use animals to describe it, then Rambo is a tiger, and the assassin is a poisonous snake.
When he reached the chimney, he stopped.
This country is extremely rich in forest resources, and most people in Northern Europe still retain the habit of burning fireplaces, and this country house is no exception.
Ximen was lying next to the chimney and could smell the faint smell of smoke and the fragrance of burning wood, as well as a warm heat.
He took out a small bottle from his pocket, filled it with several oval solid pill-like objects, and threw them into the chimney.
