Chapter 2242: The Net Opens Up
A few days later, somewhere in Amsterdam, Lin Rui and others met with employer representatives from the American side.
After reading the mission report of Lin Rui and the others, the employer's representative looked at Lin Rui and frowned, "According to your report, the shadow broker is dead?"
"At least their leader is dead. Although he was wearing a mask at the time, he was shot dead while jumping into the river, as the report makes clear. Lin Rui nodded.
"So, what about the virus program?" the employer representative said in a low voice, "Without the virus program, we would have had a hard time believing that you had succeeded in your mission." ”
Lin Rui placed a chic earring on the table, "Inside this earring, there is a high-capacity data storage chip, which contains all the information stolen from the US National Security Agency. Except for the previous leakage, other virus files will no longer spread, including the Cerberus virus. ”
The employer's representative handed the earrings to a technician beside him for identification, and then frowned, "How could such a confidential document be hidden in an earring?"
"That's where they come in. They found a completely unwitting window girl and put the earrings on her to avoid being tracked. But we still found it and stopped everything in time. Lin Rui shrugged and said, "So, the task is done." You'd better confirm this and then pay. ”
"But we haven't seen the body of the shadow broker, how can we be sure he's dead?" said the employer's representative, frowning.
"The shadow brokers are certainly not dead, they are just a hacker group. And we were only tasked with retrieving the virus from the shadow brokers before it spread. Now we've all done it. If you don't want to confirm that, then we won't hand over the earrings. Lin Rui shrugged and said, "Unless you think it's appropriate for this thing to stay in the hands of a group of mercenaries for a long time." Otherwise, you'd better make sure the task has been completed. ”
The faces of the US employer representatives have changed, and they will absolutely not allow these supercomputer viruses to continue to wander outside. So in the end, they confirmed the completion of this mission very simply.
Lin Rui received a task confirmation call a few minutes later, then nodded and said, "Very good, that's all." He stood up and walked out with a few other mercenaries.
Sergei whispered, "Boss, is it really okay for us to do this? I can't figure out why you let that woman go." ”
"Because we don't have to kill her, and handing her over to the Americans is not a wise choice. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Instead of this, it's better to let them owe us a favor." Besides, this time the shadow broker gritted his teeth with hatred for the Secret Society's robbery. It would be better to let them go and use them to contain the Order's hacking group, which would not do us any harm. ”
"But this time, the shadow broker matter is in our hands. Are you sure they're going to settle the account on the Order's head?" Sergei whispered.
"Because, they will at least sell Cobain a face. Actually, it was Cobain's idea that I let them go. These hacking groups, while not very good, have their own set of rules. Cobain thinks that maybe we'll be useful sometimes. Lin Rui said in a low voice.
"Scared me, I thought you had a crush on that woman. Sergei shrugged.
"Let's go. Mission accomplished. Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Anyway, there is no news from the headquarters, should we spend two days in Amsterdam?"
"I'm afraid it's not that good. Shogishi walked up from behind them and said, "We just got the news, we need to rush back immediately." ”
"What?" Lin Rui frowned.
"It's a matter for the Orumi Federation. In the past week, the Orumi Federal Army has carried out a large-scale crackdown on the rebel guerrillas, and the Freedom Liberation Organization, which had been in a violent manner, has once again been cornered. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.
"That's what we expected. I don't like them either, they are just a mess, and their biggest role is to delay the war in the north and reduce the pressure on General Logan. Lin Rui nodded.
Shogishi replied, "The silver wolf originally thought the same way, but now the situation is different. The news we brought back last time made Silver Wolf change his mind. Originally, he just wanted to hold on for half a year and withdraw when the contract ended. But it's not that simple anymore.
Once the Secret Order seized the initiative, it became a military state with control over the surrounding situation. The attitude of the British and Americans will be completely changed, and they will need the Orumi Federation to counter the growing extremism in Africa. The Orumi Federation will also take the opportunity to further strengthen and become a significant military force in Africa. ”
"And we're going to be forced to pull out of the entire African market. In the absence of a certain scale in several other regions, the loss of the African market is tantamount to the loss of the foundation of the entire Black Island military company. Lin Rui said in a low voice.
"Yes, this should have been the decision of the silver wolf after returning from the United States, and he should have learned something from the Americans. For the Americans, they don't care if the Order is in control of the Orumi Federation. They care about their interests in the African region, and if a strong Orumi Federation can bring that kind of protection. Then they will be happy to see that happen. In other words, they will continue to wait and see how the Order develops. and will not try to limit it. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.
"This is not good news for us, things are going according to the Order's charted course. Lin Rui said in a low voice. "What else did the silver wolf say?"
"There should be something else he didn't say. But he asked us to see him as soon as we got back. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.
"Let's go, then. Almost all matters concerning the Orumi Federation are matters related to the survival of the company. Because we can't afford to lose, we've put too much of our chips in Africa. Once you can't get along in Africa, everything for the company is over. Lin Rui nodded and said, "Actuary, immediately start arranging our trip back." ”
"I'll do it right away. Shogishi nodded. "But if it's the fastest, it's the day after tomorrow. ”
"Then the day after tomorrow. Lin Rui thought for a moment and said, "How is the crystal?"
"That's exactly what I want to say, this time the Lucifer squad has taken another heavy hit. The Gibbs brothers are ambushed and killed by Crystal's men. I'm afraid, Joe and Morningstar won't give up. They may find out that we did it. Shogishi sighed.
