Even though the car was still speeding, everyone inside couldn't help but hug Swager one by one, and their heartbeats didn't even stop while they were driving. To be honest, Swager looked a little bad, even embarrassed, but this couldn't stop him.
Everyone is happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Initially, everyone thought that Swag was already in danger, but they didn’t expect that he was actually still alive. Swag smiled and lay among the people gasping for air. His body was still a little weak after being tortured for such a long time.
, I had just experienced a tense life-and-death battle, and now my body felt like it was drained, and I had no strength at all.
"Uh...who is this?"
After he recovered a little, he also noticed the stranger in the car.
"Um... I'm Stevens, the U.S. Ambassador to Libya."
"oh……"
The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but Fred immediately resolved the awkward atmosphere.
"Bullseye, what happened at that time? I mean, after you were caught by them..."
"Oh, it's nothing. They didn't intend to kill me. They just gave me some food, then took me to another place, and then moved me here..."
"Did they do anything else to you?"
When Bayev asked Swag, his eyes stared at Makarov unkindly.
"Of course, I have been taken care of by them these past two days..."
Swag obviously said something ironic, and from the look in his eyes at Makarov, it was clear that he would not give up.
"Owen, where are we going now?"
He turned several intersections in a heartbeat, turned around and asked after confirming that there were no pursuers.
"Go to the embassy."
Irving thought about it and finally decided to send the ambassador back. The president and the ambassador's arms reselling had nothing to do with him, and he didn't want to know about it.
"Thank you, thank you for everything you have done for me, America will thank you."
The car sped towards the embassy. Ambassador Stevens kept thanking him. Irving waved his hand impatiently. Saving Stevens was purely a by-product of capturing Makarov. Now Makarov is captured.
Arriving, Swagger has also been rescued. The only thing he wants to do now is to make a deal with President Palmer as soon as possible in exchange for the freedom of Jack and Swagger, and then leave this damn Benghazi.
Ambassador Stevens was afraid that Omega had other ideas before. Now it seems that he is lucky. According to the previous situation, whether he falls into the hands of Sam Fisher or Makarov, he will not be so good.
the result of.
Heartbeat is very familiar with the roads here. After turning a few streets, he arrived at the outskirts of the embassy. Ambassador Stevens had already called the embassy on the way. The gate had been opened long ago. The car did not stop. He walked directly through the gate and stopped.
In front of the main building, the two security guards Chris and Dave who had been notified by him were already waiting there.
"Thank God..."
It was really a surprise to see Ambassador Chris coming up from the car.
They were attacked by a car bomb, and even if they arrived later, they could only watch the ambassador being taken away by others. They originally thought that something bad would happen to the ambassador, but they didn't expect that the other party actually sent the ambassador back.
"Thank you, you..."
Dave had already recognized this group of people as the ones who took away the ambassador before, not only the people but also the cars, but he did not act rashly, maybe there was some misunderstanding.
"No need to thank us, we just happened to meet you at the right time."
"I am……"
Chris reached out his hand.
"I know, you are Chris, he is Dave, you can call me Owen..."
Owen interrupted first, but Chris was a little confused: "How do you know my name?"
Irving shrugged, and they looked at each other and smiled. It can't be said that we all have your information, and I also know that you love to tell dirty jokes. Irving did not answer this question, but said: "No need to greet us, we are just here
Stay here for a while, if you don’t mind, can you find a doctor to help our guy treat the wound?"
Owen was talking about Swager, and Swager had many wounds, large and small.
"Of course, no problem, come with me."
Chris took Swager and left, while Irving stayed where he was. He was going to call President Palmer to see if he agreed to the deal. If so, then Makarov would just stay here.
When Irving was about to call President Palmer, Freddie, an intelligence officer in the embassy, also informed the base director of the CIA intelligence station about the ambassador's return. The director in turn notified Barnes, who was meeting with President Palmer at this time.
Together, they looked at the president after hearing this. President Palmer nodded, and then Barnes made a phone call, saying only two short words before hanging up.
"The action begins."
…
"Owen..."
President Palmer had long known about Irving's capture of Makarov, and he guessed that Irving would definitely call him, and sure enough, the call came.
Irving didn't get too long-winded and got straight to the point.
"Your Excellency, President, I have captured Makarov. He intended to have the wanted KGB spy Eve Short kill Ambassador Stevens today, triggering further escalation of conflicts between the two countries. I can hand him over to you,
He can prove that the Russian airport tragedy has nothing to do with the United States."
"What are your terms?"
President Palmer knew there must be more to Owen.
"Exchange Makarov for your pardon for Jack Bauer and Bob Lee Swagger."
"impossible."
President Palmer rejected Irving without hesitation. Although the president has the right to grant pardons, pardons are likely to cause a decline in public support for him. For a president who wants to be re-elected, this proposal has no reference at all.
, even if U.S.-Russian relations may return to a freezing point, it will not be as negative as the negative effects brought about by the amnesty, especially since the target of the amnesty is the murderer of the Ethiopian Archbishop.
"What if we add the news that the president and ambassador secretly sold arms to terrorist organizations behind Congress' back?"
Irving continues to increase the pressure.
"I don't understand what you are talking about."
Nothing unusual could be heard in President Palmer's tone. As expected, all politicians are good actors. If it weren't for the fact that both Ambassador Makarov and Ambassador Stevens had not admitted it, Irving would almost have thought that this was really a frame-up.
"I'll give you half an hour to think about it. If I don't receive a reply after half an hour, I will report this matter to the media. I think they will understand."
"Owen, are you threatening me? Without me, you would be just a small CTU agent with a meager salary. Everything you have today is all because of me. I gave it to you. What are you doing now?
?”
The president's tone became unkind, and Owen refused to give in: "You are right, but without me, you would have been killed before you became president. Also, don't forget how your president came to be.
Was it your campaign team that helped you win the election? No, it was Swagger and I. If we hadn't forced your opponent to withdraw from the race, would it have been so easy for you to get into this position? And that time in the White House, remember
, I don’t owe you anything…”
Owen's unyielding words caused the other party to fall into silence.
"What do you think of this condition now?"
"I need time to think about it, and I will let you know the result."
Palmer quickly hung up the phone. He should be unhappy, but Owen didn't care about that. Who cares about these things now that they've broken up with each other.
