For Owen and others, every trip the ambassador makes is an opportunity.
Yesterday's monitoring had predicted in advance that the ambassador would have a meeting with local officials today, but the specific time and place were not known. No one went out after getting up in the morning, and they all waited quietly. The embassy may leave at any time.
.
"Fake~"
"What's wrong, Ted?"
"I don't know what's wrong with this damn mobile phone. The battery is very low. I just charged it last night. I haven't used it much all night and only 30% is left..."
"Maybe you should change your cell phone."
"Yeah, but I still have damn bills to pay..."
"..."
Listening to the complaints on the other end of the speaker, I shrugged stupidly. This kind of monitoring mode has such disadvantages. There is no way to do it. Working 24 hours a day, the battery consumption will definitely be fast.
Everyone was doing nothing all morning, just listening quietly, eating, chatting, going to the toilet, and talking to their wives. Finally, around noon, the real business came.
"Get ready, the ambassador will be leaving in twenty minutes..."
Freddy called Ted on the other end, and Ted immediately gathered his men.
The sound of the engine starting came from the other end of the speaker, and everyone in the safe house also got into their cars.
"The hummingbird is ready, the other party's destination this time is the Church Square."
Sha Baitian told everyone in Omega the destination she heard from the conversation, and Omega set off.
The car drove all the way, still following Silently in the dark under Sha Baitian's command. Ted and his people didn't notice anything.
Passing through the crowded street, the two Omega cars followed slowly and slowly on the next street. Occasionally driving too fast, Shabaitian would immediately tell them to slow down.
They had been in Benghazi for a few days and had a basic understanding of the nearby road conditions. The church square was not far away, and they arrived not long after driving.
There were no accidents along the way. Behind them, the two cars of Irving and Ghost turned off the side road and just saw the butt of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class disappearing into the gate of the Church Square.
The two of them did not follow in. It was a semi-enclosed space. In this case, it would be easy for the other party to notice if they followed in. Owen and Ghost parked their car near the square and began to check the weapons on their backs.
"The fortune teller went in to investigate, and the others stayed in the car on standby."
After Owen finished speaking, he opened the door and got out of the car. He put on a baseball cap for himself, and then walked casually along the street. Fred in front also got out of the car after receiving the order. He had never met the guards, so he was close.
The best candidate for range reconnaissance.
Owen and Fred passed by each other, like two strangers without any communication. Fred took a few turns and entered the square with a drawing board.
Church Square is actually an open space in front of the church. Because the venue is large enough, many activities are held here.
There are many people standing in the square at this moment. Ambassador Stevens's position is very conspicuous. He is standing on the podium and giving a speech to the people below. Every time he talks about something wonderful, many people below will applaud. Ferey
De noticed that those people were well dressed, they must be the local officials in Benghazi.
Fred pretended to be a sketching passerby, unfolded his drawing board in the corner, took a pencil and started sketching, and soon the outline of the church appeared on the paper.
The church square is an open area, and speeches are only part of it. There are many people doing other things. Vendors sell food and flowers, children are playing, and some people like Fred are also painting, but they mostly paint in oils.
So Fred's sketching does not seem out of the ordinary.
"Oh, it's hard to imagine that in such a war-torn country, where survival is a problem, there are still people who are obsessed with art."
Silly comments came from the earphones, and everything Fred saw was transmitted back to her through the portable camera. This scene was indeed strange. It was like a paradise, completely different from the chaotic Benghazi outside.
In the footage, Ambassador Stevens finished his speech and received a round of applause. After he stepped off the stage, he began to shuttle among the crowd, constantly socializing with people. It was obvious that this guy must be a party animal, and he can handle it easily.
Several of his security personnel were scattered around the square.
While Fred was investigating at close range, Owen was wandering outside. After wandering around, he had carefully looked at all the suspicious places nearby.
He expected to find the guy who monitored Stevens last time, but was doomed to be disappointed.
Owen had his back to the gate of the church square, looking like an ordinary person smoking on the roadside. But what he didn't expect was that the embassy's Mercedes-Benz G-Class had an electronic rearview mirror specially installed by Ted on the butt, which functioned as Ted's.
You can remotely check the situation around the car through your mobile phone.
At this time, Ted happened to see Owen's side face through the electronic rearview mirror.
"It's that guy~~"
Ted recognized Owen instantly. Owen was sitting next to him in the bar that day. He remembered his appearance very clearly. Owen was also present in yesterday's battle. Ted became nervous, although yesterday it seemed that Owen's group was not targeting him.
The ambassador went there, but meeting him again today is definitely not a coincidence.
"Something happened. Right in front of the gate, I saw one of the people from yesterday's group..."
"Owen, you were exposed..."
Shabaitian notified Owen immediately after monitoring Ted's situation.
Owen was stunned. He didn't know where he was exposed, but judging from the other party's actions, it was obvious that he was right.
Jack had already pulled Ambassador Stevens out of the crowd.
"What are you doing?"
"Sorry, Mr. Ambassador, there is a safety hazard here. We must leave immediately..."
"But I..."
Without giving the ambassador a chance to resist, Jack had already pressed his head and stuffed him into the car. The other people took out their guns. Although the muzzles of the guns were not pointed at Owen, they all looked unabashedly at where Owen was.
direction.
"The other party is leaving, what should I do?"
A question from his companion came through the headset. After a moment of hesitation, Owen finally said: "Let them go, don't cause misunderstanding. Becky, keep monitoring..."
He still didn't understand how he was recognized by the other party, but the ambassador was not their target, and the other party was obviously very restrained. As long as they did not follow, the other party would definitely not shoot.
"clear."
The ambassador's car left quickly, and Owen and the others stayed where they were so as not to cause misunderstanding. They waited until the car had driven some distance before Owen ran towards his car.
"The other party turned onto No. 2 Street, and the destination should be the embassy."
Owen and the others were still hanging slowly in the distance. On the screen in front of Sha Baitian, the two Mercedes-Benzes of the embassy had turned from No. 2 Street onto a side street. This was the only way back to the embassy.
Boom~~~
Without warning, a car exploded on the roadside. The timing of the car explosion was very clever, just at the moment when the rear of the Mercedes-Benz passed by and the front of the G-Class arrived.
"There is a situation~~"
Although they couldn't see the picture, Irving and others heard the explosion. In the drone picture, the G-class was blown over by a car bomb, and the car overturned on the side of the road. Although the Mercedes-Benz sedan in front did not bear as much as the G-class,
But it also hit a car parked on the side of the road crookedly.
At this time, suddenly there was a rapid sound of tire friction coming from the side road, and another off-road vehicle roared out and headed straight for the Mercedes-Benz sedan that was on the road.
