Chapter 1772: Code Name Gatekeeper
Lin Rui and Jiang An returned to O2's station, and O2's gang all ran out. "Boss, you're back?" said Crazy Horse as he looked at him.
"How's the leg injury?" Lin Rui patted him.
"Penetrating wounds, tearing off a piece of flesh. But it's okay, at least it can move. Crazy Horse laughed.
"That's fine, take care of it. You don't need to participate in the quest during this time. Lin Rui nodded and said, "I heard that you have been making a bit of a fuss lately, just you are lame like this, and you still have time to make trouble?"
"No, it's just that the brothers drank too much, so they played a bit big. Crazy Horse laughed.
"There have been a lot of things in the company recently, and the boss is in a very bad mood, don't hit the muzzle. It's still light to punish you for cleaning toilets this time, and if you are really transferred out of O2 and let you go to the front line in Africa, you won't be able to laugh. Lin Rui shook his head and said.
"Wouldn't it?" Sergei said in embarrassment.
"You try to see if you can. Lin Rui looked at him and said, "Go and inform all the brothers and go to the tactical conference room to assemble." We have new tasks. ”
"We already know that. Sergei nodded, "Aladdin and his bodyguards have arrived. ”
Lin Rui was slightly stunned, then shook his head, "So fast? It's really damn, this old guy is sure that we won't refuse." ”
"Forget it, that's how he is. Let's go and see, he should have further information. If we don't accept the assignment, they won't provide it, which is also the norm between the employer and us. Shogishi nodded.
"Let's go, let's go over and have a look. Lin Rui patted him.
Inside, the curtains had been drawn. And, Aladdin's bodyguard, Duncan, is inspecting every corner of the room with a small detector. He did it very carefully and professionally. Jiang An squinted his eyes and whispered to Lin Rui, "This bodyguard of Aladdin, Duncan, may have received professional agent training. ”
Aladdin walked in and smiled slightly, "Meet Mr. Rick again." I beg my pardon for being presumptuous, but I feel that we must place strict emphasis on secrecy before undertaking this mission. Because once the news leaks, we may lose all the work we have done. So, I asked Duncan to check the room first. The place is well done, the walls are soundproofed and there is a metal shield, no hidden camera devices. I'm satisfied. ”
Lin Rui looked at him and said, "This is our place." What you want to do, it's best to ask the owner's permission first. ”
"Understood, we'll take care when we get off. Duncan, put that damn detector down. Now that they have agreed, give them our second information. Let's hear from these professionals. Aladdin laughed.
The black bodyguard raised his hand and threw a flash drive to Jiang An, "This is the latest information about the target, and it is very detailed." ”
After taking the shore, it is played on the LCD screen, which contains a large number of video and audio data, as well as a large number of pictures, text materials, and a large number of statistical information. Bring up the shore to bring up the picture. The man in the picture looks to be about forty or fifty years old, with a little beard, glasses, and does look like a professor.
"Target: Edric, Romanian. On the surface, he is a professor of economics at the University of Bucharest, but he is actually a high-ranking member of the Secret Society, codenamed Gatekeeper. The man disappeared four years ago and is officially considered dead. But in reality he is still alive and helping the highest brains of the Order, wielding a staggering amount of wealth. Aladdin whispered.
He is currently hiding in Meteora, a European island nation in the Pasaria region of northeastern Greece, according to the source. It is famous for Mount Olympus, where the gods once lived, and the breathtaking monasteries of Meteora. Shogishi frowned.
"Yes, it took me three years to get it. Meteora, in Greek, means hanging in the air, and this is what distinguishes many of the monasteries in Meteora. The target you need to capture is hiding in a hilltop monastery there.
Since it was an unexplored area, an old monastery was built on top of a hill. So the only tools that are the same as the outside world are ropes, rattan baskets and pulleys, and it is as difficult to get into it as it is to the sky, and very few people are lucky enough to get there. Aladdin explained.
"Have you locked his position now?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Locked, we've been investigating for a while and now we've determined the exact coordinates of this person. "Aladdin said to the general," please turn the page. ”
The picture on the LCD screen was replaced with a map with coordinates and topography.
"It is an ancient building from around the fifteenth century, originally an ancient monastery that later became a small fortress and is now private property. Aladdin whispered, "The owner of this place is a Frenchman, but we have reason to believe that he is a member of a peripheral organization of the Secret Society, engaged in large-scale money laundering, and is currently in prison." And Edric, on the other hand, helped the Grand Duke of the Secret Society in this ancient building, managing his vast assets. ”
"What about security?" said Shogishi with a frown.
"There's a gang of Russian mercenaries protecting him. And they had received orders to take drastic measures if necessary - to kill Edric. to guarantee that the secrets he knows will never be known. Aladdin whispered.
"So where is this Adrick under house arrest?" said Shogishi with a frown.
"No, he went willingly. For both he and the Grand Duke of the Order believed that that was the only way to ensure their safety. Aladdin looked at Lin Rui and Jiang Andao, "This person is a die-hard duke of the Secret Society, his most fanatical follower. He could even think of giving his life for the Grand Duke of the Order at any time. ”
"How could this be, this person is willing to hide in the mountains for the Grand Duke of the Secret Society?" Lin Rui frowned.
"That's just the way it is. I have said that the most dangerous and unreasonable people in this world are the fanatics. Edric is such a man, he will never betray the Grand Duke of the Secret Society. So the most important thing you have to be careful about when you catch him is not to let him kill himself. Aladdin replied.
"It seems like it's really a problem. Shogishi frowned.
"The Russian mercenaries under his command are the real big trouble. They are trained in the same specialties as the Alpha Army, and they are more qualified. He is a killer and the best fighter. They were the ethnic group of Russian Cossacks who were once considered born warriors. Cruel and ferocious, but absolutely calm. Aladdin sighed. "Very tricky. ”
