Chapter 149: Antonio's Plan
Jarves, who was on the side, saw Antonio's changing expression, and while he was puzzled, he asked with words. "Stationmaster, what's wrong with you?"
Antonio waved his hand. "It's okay, but I saw the boss's instructions and thought that I was going home, and I was a little scared and a little anxious. ”
Antonio said as he rubbed his stiff face with his hands, swept away the loss in his heart and the decadence in his body, and then picked up the newspaper on the bar and walked towards the crowd.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" Antonio walked up to the crowd and raised the newspaper in his hand. "The boss's latest instructions, let us stay put, wait for the Delta Special Forces to come and converge, and then return home together. ”
"Great......"
"Fantastic......
As soon as Antonio's words fell, there was a cheer in the restaurant.
These agents of the Polish station, because of the collapse of the Soviet Union, many of whom have not been home for several years, now know that they are going home soon, and their hearts are naturally excited.
"Ladies and gentlemen......"
Antonio pressed his hand, suppressed the cheers in the restaurant, and then said with a smile on his face. "The task was done very well and the boss was very satisfied, for which he ...... I decided to take out the long-cherished Perrierto Flower as a treat and to celebrate our ...... Go home!"
Antonio said as he took out a bottle of Perrier-Jouët from the wine cabinet and poured a glass for everyone.
After pouring the wine, he took the lead in picking up his glass and looked at the crowd. "I salute all of you, I am very happy and honored to have worked with you all these years. Finally, may God bless America!"
After Antonio finished speaking, he looked at the crowd in front of him, and then at the bubbling champagne in the glass, and at this moment he had a sense ......of tranquility that he had never felt before.
After drinking the champagne from the glass, Antonio said goodbye to everyone and returned to his room alone, and when the door was closed, he took out his satellite phone and called his wife and children on the other side of the ocean.
"Lisa! ”
"Oh, dear, it's good to hear you!"
"Me too!"
"Lisa, I'm about to go home, and when the task in hand is completed, I'll come back, and I won't leave when the time comes, and I'll always be with you and the child. ”
"Really!"
"Really. ”
"Great, you need me to bring the child, can you tell him?"
"No...... No, I'm going to leave soon, tell the kid that I will always love him and that I will always love you, Lisa. ”
"I love you too, and I am waiting for you to come back with my children. ”
"Hmmm......"
Hanging up the phone, Antonio was already in tears, with deep longing and reluctance in his red eyes. The world yearns for life and fears death, and he is no exception, but many times, many things, are not up to oneself, nor can one choose.
After wiping tears from his face, Antonio lit a cigar and walked towards the restaurant.
At this moment, everyone in the dining room is still celebrating their homecoming, and the joyful atmosphere fills the entire restaurant, until the first person falls, this joyful scene comes to an abrupt end, and when Antonio returns to the dining room, there is a squirming body lying on the cold ground.
"Why?" asked the young agent, who fell to the ground and pointed feebly at Antonio, who had just entered.
As a top student in chemistry, of course he knew that he had been poisoned, and that there was no cure for tetrodotoxin.
What's more important is that this poison is still contributed by him.
"Because the country needs us to be silent!" Antonio walked over to the young agent and crouched down, reaching out and touching the young agent's face.
When John asked him to eradicate the Arctic fox mercenaries, he already knew that he and his men were also targeted, but he had always had the illusion that John would finally change his mind.
But when he received instructions from John that the Delta Special Forces would be in charge of the escort, that illusion no longer existed.
What kind of unit is the Delta Special Forces?
Others may not know, but as a mid-level CIA agent, Antonio knows somewhat.
It is impossible for such an elite unit to be sent to serve as the simplest escort mission, they are here for only one purpose, that is, to exterminate the mouth, and as for the object of the extermination, it is obvious that it must be the CIA members who participated in all the incidents.
In the eyes of the higher-ups, any unstable factors must be erased, and now that the Arctic fox mercenaries have disappeared, the remaining CIA must also be eliminated.
Antonio can accept this kind of thing, because he usually gets rid of a lot of unstable factors, and this time it's just his turn. And he's a lot better than those who disappeared quietly, because he would eventually become a martyr and be buried at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia.
But there is one thing he can't accept, and that is that the rest of the 12 agents will be dumped to the bottom of the sea like the Arctic fox mercenaries, and used as fish feed.
This kind of thing, Antonio does not want to see, let alone accept.
Everyone will die, sooner or later, but to die meaningfully, so he must do something for these brothers who share weal and woe to make their death worthwhile, or at least become a martyr like him.
Because only when these people become martyrs will their families be taken care of, their wives and children will be respected, and they themselves will die a well-deserved death.
And how to make John change his original intention and make these 12 agents martyrs, the only way Antonio can think of is to do it himself.
Only when they took the initiative to sacrifice their lives for the country could they use this tragic act to impress John's compassion, and finally make John unable to do anything and abandon his original plan.
Originally, this kind of strategy did not have the slightest effect on the superiors, because as the superiors, they would not compromise with any threat, whether it was good or bad. But the reason why Antonio still did this was because he came into contact with John and found that John was more human than the other superiors.
That's why he firmly chose to poison the wine and end his life with the other agents, and he had to die anyway, either he killed or committed suicide, is there a difference? Instead of being shot to death by others and thrown into the bottom of the sea to feed the fish, why not let himself die with dignity and take care of future generations after death.
As for running, Antonio never thought about where the people who were worried about the Morgan family could run, even if they ran to the moon, Antonio believed that the Morgan family had a way to get him down.
What's more, his roots are all in the country, and he ran away, so what about his wife and children in the country?
So he can't run, the only thing he can do is to accept it, and then silently wait for the end of this period of his life.
