Chapter 287: The United States of America II
You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people.
Morgan had no choice but to let William go to the privatization of the Sun Trust Bank because he didn't want to leave a weak spot for those who were eyeing the investment firms, so it didn't matter if he spent a little more.
Yue Hao accompanied Morgan, walking side by side with him, and before he reached the gate of the Sun Trust Bank, he received a message from the field staff in Yue Hao's headset, through the detection of monitoring equipment, 300 meters outside the building where the bank was located, at ten o'clock, there was a sniper on the top of an eight-story building, with a TAC-50 sniper rifle in his hand facing the door of the bank.
Stopping Morgan who was walking towards the door, Yue Hao raised his left hand and whispered a few words to his watch, and then took him to sit down in the rest area of the bank lobby.
"What's wrong?" Morgan asked Yue Hao, who was standing behind him, with a puzzled look.
"Someone wants you to go to God. In response to Morgan's question, Yue Hao's attention was on the porch outside the lobby.
"Did you catch someone? was it someone sent by William Rogers?" Morgan casually looked out of the lobby window.
"I'm not going to arrest anyone, this man is a walking piece of evidence, and as long as he is in contact with Dick Cheney, I have a way to pull him down from the vice-presidency and let the Freemasons reduce a useful pawn. ”
In about half an hour, a young man with a Chinese face walked into the door of the wooden frame embedded with tempered glass, a pale yellow straw hat was buttoned in the winter, a pair of toad mirrors reflecting the light covered most of his face, and a black long-pole umbrella in his hand on a sunny day was very surprising.
After entering the bank, the man stuck the umbrella in his hand on the shelf where the rain gear was placed at the door, and then walked to the counter and asked the counter staff about something, as if his strange behavior was a matter of course.
Yue Hao patted Morgan's shoulder and bowed towards the gate, and several bodyguards immediately surrounded him and protected him in the middle and walked slowly towards the gate.
Before going out, Yue Hao casually took down the umbrella that was inserted on the shelf at the door, and snatched out the door in Morgan's surprised gaze.
Outside the door, Yue Hao opened the umbrella, and Morgan's gaze followed the unfolded umbrella surface, and pieces of pure white lining appeared in the metal umbrella stand, which seemed so incompatible with the black umbrella surface.
Yue Hao tilted the umbrella slightly to the left, blocking most of Morgan's figure behind the umbrella, and put his right hand on Morgan's right shoulder with one hand, and escorted him into the accompanying car.
The car moved slowly, Morgan couldn't help but be curious, took the umbrella in his hand, reached out and touched the white lining, and said, "You waited for half an hour at the bank, wouldn't you just wait for this umbrella?"
"The lining of the umbrella is made of spider silk body armor material, which can block the sniper's line of sight, can completely resist the fire of the TAC-50 sniper rifle at a distance of 300 meters, and can reduce the sniper's vigilance and facilitate our evidence on him. ”
Handing the umbrella back to Yue Hao, Morgan touched his chin, rolled his eyes, and said, "Although what you said is very reasonable, I found that being aimed at the head with a sniper rifle all day long doesn't seem to be the same thing, in case there is one."
What an accident, am I not going to see God!"
"Which do you want to choose, a sniper who has been exposed or an unknown sniper?"
This multiple-choice question is completely a scoring question, and if you think about it with your ass, you know how to choose, Morgan chose to shut up, he didn't want Yue Hao to think that he was an idiot.
Compared with New York, Atlanta is not the focus of the intelligence department's monitoring scope, and safety is not guaranteed, Morgan, who originally wanted to rest in Atlanta for a night, was sent to the airport by Yue Hao and returned to New York by private jet.
William Rogers, as the largest private shareholder of Sun Trust Bank, owns 10 million shares of Sun Trust Bank, which are currently worth about $50 million, and if he can sell Sun Trust Bank at a 10% premium, he will receive an additional $200 million, which makes him full of enthusiasm.
After Morgan left, William Rogers began to contact the stock exchange to obtain shareholders who held shares of the Sun Trust, and used all means to buy back the shares that were circulating in the market.
Sun Trust Bank has about 440 million shares in circulation on the stock market, and based on the current value of about $5 per share of Sun Trust, these 440 million shares are worth about $2.2 billion, and if it is acquired at a premium of 5%-10%, it will cost about $2.31 billion to $2.42 billion, which is not much for Sun Trust with a market value of about $22 billion.
Back in New York, Morgan became suspicious, and a voice in his head kept alerting him that a sniper was aiming at his head, so that he didn't even dare to go out of the office, and that all the company affairs for the past two days were solved by phone at home, and if there was a document that needed to be signed by him, he would tell the secretary to send it to his home.
After staying up for two days, Morgan, who was really unbearable, had no choice but to invite Yue Hao into the study, pinched his hands and asked, "Yue, have you got the evidence you want?"
"Morgan, I understand how you feel, I've been targeted by snipers on the battlefield, and patience is the only hope to survive at times like these. But patience is often the most scarce quality for ordinary people, and snipers are generally not lacking in patience, and it is not a matter of one or two days to get evidence from snipers. A sympathetic look appeared on Yue Hao's face, but in the current situation, he could only shrug his shoulders.
"No, or you can send someone to kill Dick Cheney, so that he doesn't have to play tricks behind his back!" Morgan said coldly.
"Without the vice president, there would be a secretary of defense, and without the secretary of defense and the director of the FBI, do you think that would work?"
"You let his family go?"
"I gave his family freedom when I came back from Atlanta, but unfortunately we spread kindness, but the sniper had no intention of evacuating. ”
Yue Hao's words made Morgan's heart cold again, and he turned back and forth in the study uneasily, "Is he preparing to die?"
"I don't know what he wants, but seeing how uneasy you look, it seems that I have to do some temptation and turn my passivity into initiative. ”
"That's the best! I don't want to live like this anymore. ”
Out of Morgan's study, Yue Hao went downstairs all the way to another residential building in the community a hundred meters away
On the eighth floor, there is a stronghold of an intelligence team.
In front of the west-facing window in the colony, a member of the American Intelligence Group was setting up an M24 sniper rifle and aiming at the saddle at the top of the rope tower on the Brooklyn Bridge.
Yue Hao patted the sniper rifle team member on the shoulder, picked up the binoculars and pointed at the tower, and said, "Xiao Li, knock out the sniper scope of the TAC-50 sniper rifle." ”
Li Xiang moved his body slightly, the head of the gun was turned, and then a "chirped" shot was issued.
In Yue Hao's binoculars, the sniper scope of the TAC-50 sniper rifle turned into a pile of fragments scattered on the left side of the sniper, but at this time, the sniper did not dare to move, the tower was empty, he had nowhere to hide, and now at this time, any movement could lose his life.
After waiting for a moment, seeing that the other party did not fire a lethal bullet, the sniper began to pack up the sniper rifle, and then left the saddle neatly.
When the figure of the sniper disappeared from sight, Yue Hao walked to the surveillance screen and continued to check his whereabouts through the images transmitted by the fly monitor.
The sniper changed his vehicle countless times in the bustling city of New York before taking refuge in a graduate student apartment at Columbia University.
White threw himself on the single bed, and walked around in front of the ghost gate today, but fortunately the other party didn't want his own life, or there was not even a person on the saddle to collect his body.
Panting, White lay on the bed for a few minutes, this time he slowly stood up and went to the bathroom to wash his face, stared at himself in the mirror for a while, and then sat back on the edge of the bed, opened the wooden table drawer next to the bed, took out a Nokia mobile phone, turned on the power, and in the short time that the phone was turned on, he had already made a decision, this mission could not be carried out no matter what, and it was not painful to be scolded by Dick Cheney even if he lost his life.
"I'm sorry sir, I'm exposed, and I can't go on any longer!" White dialed Dick Cheney's personal phone after the phone was turned on.
"Go find Number Two and let him arrange for you to leave!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone directly, White didn't usher in a scolding, which was the biggest gain of the day, he hummed an unknown tune, disassembled the phone and took out the SIM card, smashed the phone, and threw all the pieces into the toilet and flushed them without a trace.
The surveillance display screen truthfully recorded everything around the sniper's body, and Yue Hao stared at it for most of the day, and he didn't gain much except to get a set of phone numbers. Retracted his gaze, moved his cervical and lumbar spine, moved his position, and explained: "Continue to stare at him, inform the tracking team to expand the tracking area, and don't let go of 'No. 2'." ”
Back at Morgan's house, Yue Hao told him the outcome of the matter, Morgan's high heart finally returned to its original position, his facial muscles relaxed, and said, "Finally, I can sleep peacefully!"
"If I didn't think so, Dick Cheney wouldn't give up so easily, the second wave of killers might already be on their way!" Yue Hao stiffened his face without any intention of letting his guard down.
"Yue, don't put so much pressure on me, let me sleep well first!" Morgan yawned and walked to the bedroom without waiting for Yue Hao's reply.
