Chapter 2206: Inside and Outside the Wine Cellar
Lin Rui poked his head out and fired a few bullets at the armed guards who tried to rush down upstairs, delaying their pursuit for a moment, then turned around and went downstairs to the basement of the villa.
Alekfelovich was a very particular man about food, he liked red wine and caviar. He has even sold some of the best wines at auction in Europe at astonishingly high prices. Of course, for this Russian oligarch, money is not a problem at all. And he has always regarded himself as a wine collector.
Generally speaking, people who like red wine will buy wine cabinets for long-term wine storage, but wine cabinets tend to fill up quickly, and the price of top wine cabinets is not cheap, and later more collectors began to choose to build their own private wine cellars at home. Alekfelovich is one such person.
However, a professional wine cellar is not something that can be done by installing an air conditioner and putting a humidifier. Because air conditioners can't keep the indoor temperature constant, humidifiers can't keep humidity constant. However, the most feared thing about wine is the fluctuating temperature change, and if the humidity is not enough for a long time, the cork will easily shrink, leading to oxidation and leakage of the wine.
So Alekfelovich built a large underground cellar under the villa in the Eastern District. Because the cellar is too small, it will affect the variety and quantity of wine storage. Many wines need to be stored for a long time, so that the older they get, the better. This will take up some space. In addition, long-term wine and temporary wine must be stored separately, and the storage space should be suitable for it. The advantages of appropriate and spacious activity space are: it can reduce labor intensity, avoid accidents, facilitate ventilation, and facilitate the entry and exit of goods and so on.
Lin Rui believes that this wine cellar can help him buy more time. Because there is enough space in the cellar, but there is only one entrance, and no one wants to rush in.
He went all the way to the underground wine cellar and found that the space here was indeed large enough, it should be about 300 square meters. All of them are decorated with precious wood, which is quite luxurious. There are wine racks, wine cabinets, and several large wine barrels on both sides. There are also several sofas and coffee tables in the wine cellar. Lin Rui sneered and pulled over a sofa, sat down in the wine cellar, put the automatic rifle in his hand across his knees, and replaced it with a pistol. Whoever dares to rush in will not say a word, and will be shot in the head.
After killing several pursuing guards in succession, the men finally did not dare to continue rushing down.
They couldn't get in, and Lin Rui couldn't rush out, so the two sides were deadlocked. Lin Rui took a bottle of wine from the wine rack and opened it while sitting on the sofa. While sipping red wine, I stood guard near the entrance of the wine cellar. Anyway, whoever comes down has to go through this road. While sipping red wine, he carried a pistol, and when he saw someone coming down, he would shoot him. The armed guards above also thought of a lot of ways and threw grenades inside, but there was a corner in the passage below the cellar. The grenade was thrown down, and it did not work at all.
Lin Rui sneered and scolded while drinking red wine, "Your boss is really good." A dilapidated wine cellar is so richly decorated. It's a pity that he can't enjoy such good wine anymore. I don't understand, Alekfelovich is already hanging. You guys, what are you still pestering me for? You're out of work, hurry up and find another boss. ”
There was a shout of swearing outside. "Damn, you have the ability to come out!"
"You have the ability to come down. It's a nice place and there is wine. Lin Rui said with a smile.
The members of the team said bad words to each other, but Lin Rui didn't care at all, he knew that he couldn't escape at all now. But the guards couldn't rush in for a short time. I slowly consumed it with them like this. As long as they have the slightest negligence and carelessness, maybe it is their chance. No matter how slim the chance, at least try to take it.
The voices of these armed guards seemed to confirm Lin Rui's judgment, and after several unsuccessful attempts, they seemed to have lost some confidence. Lin Rui seized the opportunity to strike while the iron was hot, and in the wine cellar below, while holding red wine, he mocked, "Now that Alekfelovich has hung up, who is the leader of you there? Why is no one talking? It can't be that your leaders have all run away, right?"
"It's a little admirable that you still have such good energy after a night of fighting. Suddenly, a voice sounded outside, and the tone seemed very sarcastic.
When Lin Rui heard this person's voice, he laughed instead. "You should admire me. White gloves, you still show up. ”
White-Gloves laughed outside the cellar, "I can hear who you are, too." Mr. Rick, I was surprised. ”
"Are you surprised?" Lin Rui sat on the sofa and took a sip of red wine, "I think you should have known it was me." You have always been well informed. Russian intelligence can't do anything about you, can't they?"
That's right. But I was really surprised, Mr. Rick. But that's fine. I still remember the last time you sent me to a prison in Brazil. White Glove said coldly, "This time is different from last time, now you are a prisoner." ”
"Now, as a prisoner, I'm sitting on a leathery couch, comfortably drinking the red wine of '82. You're forced to huddle in the basement hallway with these pesky guards. What do I think, but it's that I'm a prisoner who looks more chic. Lin Rui laughed and mocked. "Why don't you sit down and catch up and drink?"
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you're up to. White Glove sneered, "Do you want to lure me down?" I'd like to see how long you can stay down there. There's no food down there, how long do you think we'll last with the red wine? two days, or three days? We don't have to do anything. After two or three days, you'll be starving. After a week, you'll start begging me to let you out. Ten days later, you're hungry and confused. ”
"Are you so sure?" Lin Rui said with a smile, "Maybe it won't take me so long for me to escape from here?" do you think your place can trap me for so long?"
"The facts speak for themselves. If you don't believe me, that's the end of our conversation, and I'll come back in ten days to see if you're still as hard-mouthed as you are. White Glove sneered, "Trust me, there's nothing more terrible in this world than hunger, if you've ever been hungry." ”
Lin Rui's heart sank little by little.
