Chapter 1699: Forced to Advance
When Lin Rui and the others returned to their residences again, Sergei and the others also returned. Seeing that their faces were all injured, Lin Rui frowned and said, "Are you okay?"
"It's fine, it's just a small injury, it's ugly, but it doesn't affect the movement at all. Snakeeye shook his head.
Sergei nodded, "It's okay, just those guys from the Secret Society are not our opponents at all." ”
"Fart, don't you know you? You almost died. Lin Rui shook his head and said, "If it weren't for Aladdin's people, not only would you be dead now, but even your corpses would have been burned to ashes." ”
Sergei took a step back somewhat sarcastically, "We just didn't expect things to turn out like this." ”
"It's clear that this was all come up with by strategists, including Sergey's car accident chase and the mobile phone spook we encountered. "His purpose is obvious, he wants to attack Aladdin's men in this way. ”
"But Aladdin hid so deep that he was not moved at all. But we fell for him. Lin Rui continued, "And our luck is also good, this mission is secret, and no one knows that we have taken Aladdin's mission." And we didn't have a direct encounter with the strategist Mark Lovesky. So, he still thought he was dealing with Aladdin's personal guard. ”
"Even so, does that mean anything special to us?" Crazy Horse frowned.
"Yes. Shogishi thought for a moment and said, "This is an opportunity." Not only for us, but also for Aladdin. There aren't many people on the Secret Order side who should know about him, so after these two blows. The Order's strategists and White Gloves would have decided that there weren't many people around Aladdin anymore. So they will underestimate Aladdin's current strength. And, of course, us. ”
"That's right. Lin Rui nodded. "But now it seems that the situation of rescuing the crystal in advance is going to be lost. ”
"yes, the Order is already on guard. It's even more difficult to find out where they are located, Lin Rui, what do you think?" looked at him.
Lin Rui was silent for a while, "With us, it's impossible to find a strategist again." He is a man who does not leak, and we have nothing to do in just one or two days. But one person might do it. ”
"You mean Aladdin?" said Snakeeye.
"Ah, yes. Aladdin is a very cunning old ghost, he can put people around the strategists, and he can definitely know where they are hiding at the moment. Otherwise, we'll ask him directly. Anyway, he was the employer of this operation, and it was a matter of course to provide information. Sergei nodded.
"I called him. Lin Rui shook his head, took out the phone from his pocket and dialed it.
The call was still answered by Duncan, Aladdin's bodyguard, and he said, "Wait a minute. So he transferred the call to Aladdin.
Aladdin's voice was still slow, "Captain Rick, I've been waiting for your call all afternoon. ”
"Our operation failed. Lin Rui said in a low voice.
"I expected that if Maklovsky had been so easy to find, he wouldn't have been the new strategist. Aladdin sighed.
"I would like to ask if you can provide the address where Maklovsky is located. This is our only chance to rescue the crystal in advance. If you miss it, you will be forced to resort to the second and third options. The stakes of these two options are too high. Lin Rui shook his head and said. "I know you have someone by his side. ”
"Yes, it does. Aladdin whispered, "I'm no longer in the Order, but there are still some people who have been favored by me. Including the one who saved you today. I do know where Marklovsky is hiding now, but ...... I can't tell you his address. ”
Lin Rui frowned, "Why?"
"Because the crystal wasn't with him, he was very smart and didn't take the crystal with him. And I'm sure he won't have any connection to Crystal until we meet. He did this to avoid exposure. Maybe where the crystal is, even he doesn't know now.
Because it was not easy to fool me, he simply didn't even know about himself, so that he could keep it absolutely secret. I think he must have informed a reliable subordinate that he was secretly holding Crystal. They won't meet until we meet. Aladdin sighed.
"It can't be, the place we're going to today. Traces of someone being held were found in the garage. Crystal should have been kept there all the time. Lin Rui shook his head and said, "I went to see it in person, and there were still traces of struggle with the chair and rope that bound her." It was clear that she had been held there. ”
"These are all things that can be faked, and Aladdin's purpose in doing this is to create the illusion that you think that Crystal is with him. Then all your focus will be on him, and you will ignore the place where the crystal is really being held.
That's where his brilliance comes in, he always creates the illusion that we are deceived by him. He's a master of trickery, and he's always got you to be tricked by him on some of the most subtle issues. Aladdin whispered.
"Then what should we do?" Lin Rui frowned.
"If you can't do it, you can only give up saving people in advance, as I said before, it's just an overly idealistic plan after all. The situation is volatile, and people cannot be limited by their plans. Even the most perfect plan needs to be constantly adjusted and revised when it comes to concrete actions. Aladdin said slowly. "In addition, I have informed them. The day after tomorrow, I met them at the National Academy of Quantico. ”
"The day after tomorrow, how can you be in such a hurry?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Because of what you have done today, they forced me to agree to meet the day after tomorrow, because they know that there are not many people around me. After suffering two blows today, it is estimated that there are only a few personal bodyguards around him. So they didn't want me to slow down, so they took advantage of the situation and asked for a direct meeting. I had no choice but to agree. Speaking of which, thanks to your performance today. Otherwise I wouldn't have been so passive. Aladdin whispered.
Lin Rui was speechless for a while, so he could only shake his head and say, "I understand." However, the day after tomorrow is too anxious. Our weapons have not yet arrived, and we lack the necessary preparations. If you meet the day after tomorrow, what are we going to do to save people?"
"Mr. Rick, you should understand that you are talking to one of the world's largest underground arms suppliers. Aladdin whispered, "Weapons and equipment will arrive before evening." You have a day to prepare for tomorrow. ”
