Basra Sudan Palace Inn, Iraq.

"Bang!"

"Your name, your profession ... ”

Charlie Hanks, who was knocked to the ground by the butt of a gun, curled up on the carpet with a frightened and bewildered expression, looking at the four masked militants with loaded guns, asking questions in the desert tycoon's language.

He heard that the simple desert tyrant language was fine, but now his Iraqi translator had already been knocked to the ground, and he began to beg for mercy with his head in his mouth.

"Charlie Hanks, journalist, reporter for Newsweek... ”

"Bang!"

"Woo... Ahem... ”

Charlie was kicked in the abdomen by the other party, the severe pain and the feeling of tumbling in his stomach made him break out in a cold sweat in pain, but as a war correspondent, he knew that he had encountered Iraqi terrorists, gritted his teeth and endured it, and did not dare to scream at all.

"Not our goal ... ”

"Killed?"

"Take it away first... ”

Charlie's face became more and more ugly as he listened to the militants' conversation, and at that moment, the door was slammed open, and he cautiously looked up at the door, where he saw two other militants walking in.

"Finding the target, we'll leave immediately. ”

"What about them?"

"Kill!"

When Charlie's face changed dramatically when he heard this, he hurriedly shouted: "I am a reporter for Newsweek, and our newspaper can pay a ransom to save me... ”

Bang!

Another kick in his mouth, accompanied by a vicious curse, Charlie's eyes widened as he looked at the muzzle of the gun that had been aimed at him, waiting for death to strike, and the other reached out and pressed down the muzzle.

"Take them all! Quick, move faster!"

"Get up!"

Charlie was grabbed by the hair, staggered to his feet, a black hood was put on his head, and then a person pressed out of the guest room quickly...

Being stuffed into the truck, listening to the other party's conversation, the screams of another person beside him, Charlie curled up, not daring to make the slightest sound, I don't know how long he drove, the car stopped, the door was opened, he was also dragged out of the car, was pressed left and right for a while, and then was kicked down, the hood on his head was removed, there was no light, a small dark room.

Los Angeles.

IN THE DIMLY LIT BEDROOM, THE SHADOWS ON THE WALL ARE ELONGATED AND A LITTLE DISTORTED, BUT IVANA ZEMAYAN'S BIAN FIGURE CAN STILL BE CLEARLY RECOGNIZED.

Andy has a comfortable face with one arm on his pillow, and the other hand is extremely dexterous to dribble the ball, playing all kinds of tricks, which is dazzling, as for Ivana, there is almost no way to be distracted, and can only ride wholeheartedly...

Buzz –

Andy frowned slightly, the arm pillowed behind his head was unfolded, he reached out and took the mobile phone on the wound table, and looked at the caller ID.

"Go on, don't make a sound, I'll answer the phone... ”

Ivana's pretty face was already covered with fragrant HAN, a pair of beautiful eyes were full of confusion, and she reached out to cover her mouth very well-behaved, and continued...

"Hey, it's me, you say... ”

"What?

The beautiful Ivana saw that her man's expression became very ugly, knew that something was wrong, and waited quietly, not wanting him to be distracted.

"Whew-"

Andy's expression was solemn, and his voice was a little low: "CBS reporters were also kidnapped, and are there any organizations and individuals who have expressed responsibility for this incident?"

。。。。。。

"Immediately issue a statement, our newspaper will do everything in its power to get our staff released, and we hope that people or institutions will not release the personal details of the abductees until the incident is clear! Contact the Iraqi side and find the local government, and they will say that we are willing to negotiate with the other side, yes, right now!"

Andy hung up the phone, his brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, and the reporter of his newspaper finally won the jackpot.

He knows better than anyone that journalists often risk their lives to report the truth about what is happening in the world, and that Iraq is currently the most dangerous place in the world for journalists.

Since the U.S. war in Iraq began in 2003, 208 journalists have died in Iraq, and 65 journalists died in Iraq in 2007 alone. Among the journalists killed, it was mainly Iraqi militants who were killed.

That's why Andy would let his newspaper's management suggest to his war correspondents, after being kidnapped or captured, that the newspaper was willing to pay a ransom to save them, at least for the time being, to keep them safe, and to give the outside world time and space to prepare a rescue plan.

"Dear, dear, what's wrong?"

Andy was pulled back to reality by Ivana's questioning, and when he saw the puffy puff on Meiyan's face full of worry, and remembered the chain reaction caused by looking at the house during the day, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, Nima, it's really a disaster.

"Nothing! I'll let you eat first!"

Andy changed from passive to active with some anger, and turned on the animal mode, so that Ivana's beautiful voice echoed above the bedroom, singing unbridled and cheerful.

"Whew-"

Andy let out a long sigh of relief and helped Ivana who was lying on the wound to cover the quilt, while he got off the wound, picked up the nightgown and put it on, without washing the sweat and others on his body, and walked out of the bedroom full of truffles with his mobile phone.

"Joseph, it's me, we have a journalist in Iraq who was kidnapped by unknown militants, at the Sudan Palace Hotel in Basra, his name is Charlie Hanks, you contact our people, ask them to find the local US troops stationed there, make secret interventions, look for intelligence from the black market, first determine if the person is still alive, and also, find an intermediary to ask about the other party's conditions.

Can determine the location of the other party, if you can, save the person back, if the rescue is too difficult, just redeem the money, but still have to find out this group of miscellaneous pieces for me... I want them to know that my people are not so easy to kidnap and that my money is not so easy to earn!"

Andy said with a gloomy face and a slightly hideous vicious expression, and his mood became a little calmer when he heard Joseph's crisp answer on the phone.

At this moment, his back was pasted with a warm embrace, Andy hung up the phone, turned around and said softly, "Why are you up?"

TURNED AROUND AND REACHED OUT TO TAKE IVANA, WHO WAS BLUSHING AND STILL HADN'T RETREATED BETWEEN HER EYEBROWS, INTO HER ARMS, CARESSED HER BACK, AND KISSED HER SWEATY FOREHEAD.

Ivana was a little angry, put her arms around Andy's neck, and comforted with some worry: "It will be solved smoothly, since there are no casualties on the spot, then there is a great hope of rescue." ”

"HMM! STARTING TOMORROW, THERE WILL BE TWO MORE BODYGUARDS BY YOUR SIDE, AND I WILL TRANSFER PEOPLE FROM MONTANA!" ANDY TIGHTENED THE INCOMPARABLY PLUMP DELICATE BODY IN HIS ARMS, HIS EYES NARROWED SLIGHTLY, AND HIS TONE WAS UNDOUBTED.

Ivana knew that her boyfriend was a little insecure, and she also heard the insistence in her tone, so she naturally didn't tease her boyfriend's nervous nerves, bowed her head slightly, and hummed softly.

Andy bent down, picked up Ivana, walked into the bathroom, and began to fill the bathtub with water.

"These war correspondents are risking their lives to work for the newspaper, and no matter what, I, as a boss, will do my best to get them back safely... ”

At the same time, New York.

Jon Meacham gave an overnight interview to television, announcing the abduction of the journalist and issuing a statement that he hoped the militants would not harm his employees and that he would be able to get in touch with them.

The rescue attitude was very positive, which made CBS TV, which also had a reporter kidnapped, a little embarrassed and passive.

After all, the owner of CBS TV, Lei Shidong of Viacom, should have fallen asleep, and he called at 10 o'clock in the evening, tsk, well, I still have to ask after all.

To tell the truth, this matter has left the big boss Lei Shidong, and CBS TV really can't come up with a good solution, because the relationship between CBS and the US military can be said to be extremely bad.

Their journalist was kidnapped, and they wanted the help of the American military in Iraq, so they didn't have to think about it, maybe the American military would open champagne to celebrate, and then find a sofa to sit on and watch a good show.

As for why, heheda, let the US military lose face all over the world, and the much-questioned and attacked US military in Iraq's "nue prisoner incident" was first reported by CBS TV, for the pressure from the US military, it was completely regarded as a fart, the report was a sensation in the world, CBS also became famous, of course, it also completely offended the US military.

The old fox Lei Shidong, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by the phone, although reason told him that calling him at this time was definitely an important thing, but he was still a little depressed, after all, he was old, and sleep was very important.

Coldly picked up the phone, heard the report of his subordinates, and said without even thinking about it: "According to the usual practice, issue a statement, put pressure on the local government and the police, and let them find a way, that's all!"
