Dubai is a fascinating place, in the 50s it was a modest seaside town in the Arabian Gulf, and after the 90s, Dubai has been reborn. Rows of skyscrapers have miraculously risen on the banks of the Hall River, making you feel like you're in New York. Like other Middle Eastern cities, Dubai is rich in oil.

Lin Rui is different from others, he doesn't know much about this distant Middle Eastern country. I only vaguely know that this is an extremely extravagant country, and the cost of planting every tree here is more than 3,000 dollars. There are several of the world's most expensive hotels, there are some of the most aristocratic sports in the world, and water is more valuable than oil.

Barbos, Porsche, McLaren, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Bugatti Veyron – these luxury cars are used here as police cars, and gold jewelry is part of a woman's weight. At the same time, it is a country in the eye of the world war.

Although it is located in a key place in the Middle East, it is insulated by terms such as the Iran-Iraq War, the Gulf War, and "911". Veiled women and men in white robes and hats, extravagant walls, flamboyant folk crafts and magnificent monasteries, are filled with intoxicating exoticism in the shadow of date palms.

It's home to the world's longest cake at 1.75 miles, the world's largest shopping bag, and the world's largest artificial island under construction at a cost of $3 billion. At that time, the island, designed to resemble a large palm tree, will also be visible from the moon. It's a city built with money.

After Lin Rui and the others went ashore at the port, they were greeted by a group of men in black. Strong and strong, the muscles of his body even make the black suit on his body look a little tight. The white man led by him carefully checked their identities, and after getting confirmed, he nodded to Lin Rui and said, "I'm Security Captain Parker." I've been ordered to leave security to you. ”

Lin Rui nodded as he walked, "Okay, where do we start?"

"Go this way. Parker, the white man, stretched out his hand. They were not in a car, but in a helicopter. After all the personnel got on the helicopter and took off, that Parker handed a stack of materials to Lin Rui, "The target is the Burj Al Arab." ”

Burj Al Arab is the world's only tallest seven-star hotel, the hotel is also known as the Burj Al Arab Dubai because of its resemblance to a sail, the hotel is built on an artificial island in the Persian Gulf 280 meters away from the beach shore, only connected to the land by a curved road, a total of 56 floors, 321 meters high, the top of the hotel has a cantilever beam structure of the apron projected by the edge of the building.

The construction of the hotel took five years, two and a half years to reclaim the artificial island in the Arabian Sea, two and a half years to the building itself, using 9,000 tons of steel and 250 foundation piles driven 40 meters into the sea. Designed by a British designer, the hotel looks like a sail full of wind, with a total of 56 floors and a height of 321 meters, making it the tallest hotel in the world, one step higher than the Eiffel Tower in France.

It is a symbol of Arab luxury and a new symbol of Dubai. Walking into the world's tallest hotel is like walking into Aladdin's cave**, and the proof of luxury is not pen and ink. From the mini-submarines in the seafood restaurant, to the 17 telephone boxes in each room, to the eight Rolls-Royces used as airport buses, you can see a little bit of it.

During the 30-minute flight, the helicopter landed on the helipad on the 28th floor after a bird's-eye view of Dubai's cityscape from above and the magnificent landscape. A group of black-clothed bodyguards with MP7 submachine guns on their bodies walked up and checked on Lin Rui and the others. After reconfirming, Parker nodded to them. "Please come with us. ”

Jiang An frowned and said in a low voice, "These people are very professional and material, if I were the employer, I wouldn't remove them." ”

"This is enough to show that our task is not simple. Lin Rui nodded in a low voice. They took the elevator to one of the hotel floors, and when they stepped out of the elevator, they were greeted by several security guards who checked them more thoroughly. They were then taken to a small conference room.

In the conference room, an elderly woman was waiting for them. This woman is supposed to be the personal assistant. Lin Rui has seen her photos, and now she seems to be older than in the photos, but she is very good at makeup, and she is very good at dressing, and her gestures are very elegant. It gives a very comfortable feeling.

It is indeed rare for a woman to be middle-aged, but still maintain such an elegant temperament.

She saw Lin Rui enter, as if relieved, "You are Captain Rick, thank you for finally coming." ”

"Yes, you're Lady Lyerry. Lin Rui walked over and nodded.

"Yes, I'm Lyree. Mr. Parker, give them a briefing. Miss Lyree nodded.

Parker, the captain of the black-clad bodyguards, nodded, "Yes, everybody, please watch this. This is the periphery of Burj Al Arab as there is only one road in and out. So we have ambushes at both ends of the road for guarding. There is a team of five people downstairs, monitoring the surroundings. There are also people at the elevator entrance and on the rooftop roof, and the corridor leading to the target room is patrolled by six armed bodyguards. The target's room is protected by two people in close quarters. ”

Lin Rui nodded, "This is your current protection plan?"

"Yes sir, and the scheme has proven to be very effective. Parker replied.

Lin Rui looked at the drawings he showed and said, "It's done very well, but the distribution of personnel is too even, and it can be more emphasized." Also, I think there should be a local reinforcement in this position and there. And you overlook a few points, the hotel kitchen and laundry. It only takes a little poison for a healthy person to die like a heart attack. ”

"We know, but we can't get into either place. We tried to communicate, but the hotel has its own security procedures and they also have their own set of rules, and it is impossible to make changes for the sake of an important guest. Parker replied.

"Where is the target?" said Lin Rui, looking at the floor plan.

"We've booked a total of twelve rooms here, and we need to protect them, move randomly around these rooms to avoid being pinpointed. There are also no higher positions nearby that can be used as sniper points. And this altitude is extremely windy, and it is almost impossible to assassinate by sniping from a distance. The influence of the wind on the flight of the warhead is too great. Parker nodded.

"What about helicopters, is it possible for the assassin to use a helicopter to complete the raid?" Lin Rui frowned.
