Chapter 33: A Legendary Story

"I don't want to carry such a heavy piece of iron on my body to build muscles, but it's a job requirement!" Thomson replied, looking helpless, "because it contains all my work!"

"Then it must be a secret!"

"Of course!"

"What if I lose it?"

"The text inside is encrypted with the world's most advanced method, which even top hackers can't crack. Moreover, once these texts are illegally visited, they will be automatically destroyed within ten seconds and cannot be restored. ”

"It seems to me that you FBI people are always secretive. I'd love to know, where did you get so many secrets?

Thomson smiled, he saw Jin Lingling's intention, so he asked, "Beautiful lady, do you want to see the contents inside?"

"If you're willing to show me, I'd love to!"

"Who would refuse a beautiful lady's request?!" Thomson shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "these things are kept secret in our country, but you may not be kept secret, because these things have no value in your country." ”

With that, Thomson opened his notebook, entered a long list of passwords, and entered the interface of XP.

Compared to the regular XP, this notebook has a lot more professional stuff, including some system features and software. There are several documents on the desktop, and the name of one of them has piqued Jin Lingling's interest - "Regret".

Jin Lingling pointed to the document and asked, "Can you know what's in here?"

Thomson's expression instantly became solemn, he did not answer Jin Lingling immediately, but stared at the document, and after a long time said, "That is a regret in my work, although many years have passed, I still can't forget it." ”

Jin Lingling's interest was even greater: "Because you didn't solve the case?"

Thomson replied, "So to speak, and there are a lot of complications involved in this case. At first, I wanted to continue, but I stopped for objective reasons. ”

"Can you show me?" In Jin Lingling's opinion, Thomson is a very good agent, so she can't wait to know what kind of case Thomson has no way to solve.

"Okay. Thomson nodded.

This document is individually encrypted, which shows that Thomson takes its contents very seriously. After entering the password again, Thomson told Jin Lingling: "Please enjoy browsing!"

Jin Lingling opened the document with increasing curiosity, and the first thing that caught her eye was a set of photos, and when she looked at them carefully, her curiosity immediately turned into shock.

Because the hero of those photos is Pang Jindong.

Although the name on the photo is "Jerry Pang" in English, Jin Linglingtong's familiar face is immediately recognizable. As can be seen from the time on them, the photographs were taken in different periods, spanning about four years, and the nearest date is now four years.

Compared with the current Pang Jindong, he was very arrogant at that time, not as deep as he is now. There are a few photos with earlier dates, on which Pang Jindong is still childish, occasionally showing a naughty look.

Some of these photos are in civilian clothes, while others are wearing camouflage uniforms and holding weapons in their hands. Judging from Pang Jindong's expression and surrounding environment at that time, he was on a real battlefield.

"Why did you see him here?" Jin Lingling kept asking herself in her heart, although she knew that she couldn't find the answer: "Has he done other things abroad? Is he wanted by the FBI?" Pang Jindong, who are you?"

Although Jin Lingling knew that Pang Jindong had been a mercenary, she couldn't understand why Pang Jindong appeared in the FBI file. Jin Lingling roughly skimmed through the rest of the document, then suppressed the surprise in her heart, tried to make a calm appearance, and asked Thomson, "Who is this?"

"People of your country!" replied Thomson, recovering his usual smile.

Jin Lingling closed the document and said gloomily: "I am very saddened that people from our country are wanted because they become criminals in your country. ”

"Strictly speaking, he's not a criminal, and he's not wanted!"

"Then why did the information appear with you?" Jin Lingling felt even more curious.

"It's a long story, and it's a good story to start with. ”

Jin Lingling forced out a smile and said, "I'm willing to listen to the story!"

Thomson pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I didn't start working in the FBI, a few years ago, I was in charge of collecting drug-related intelligence in South America in the Drug Control Bureau. ”

"As far as I know, your country's drug control bureau has the largest anti-drug network in the world. ”

"Beautiful lady, you know a lot. Not only that, the Drug Control Bureau has also recruited and trained many anti-narcotics and intelligence personnel in various countries around the world. After a pause, Thomson continued: "Please note that what I am about to tell you below has never been recognized or confirmed by our government, so I hope that you will treat this qiē as a story, and do not sue anyone else, nor bring it up to the relevant authorities in your country." ”

Jin Lingling nodded: "You can rest assured." ”

"More than ten years ago, in a Zhuanzhi** country in South America, there were opposition forces. As freedom fighters, this force has received assistance from our Government. However, we are embarrassed that this armed force is actually growing drugs and smuggling them into our country in order to obtain funds to support themselves in the fight against government forces. ”

Jin Lingling sneered and said, "This is the price of freedom!"

Thomson pretended not to hear the sarcasm in Jin Lingling's words, and continued: "We are not willing to give up bringing freedom and ** to the peoples of the world, so we have not ended our assistance to the opposition forces. But on the other hand, we must fight their drug cultivation. Based on these factors, the government sent three special forces to secretly infiltrate the area to carry out drug raids, the last of which was in the famous Delta. Regrettably, however, all three operations failed. ”

"Are the opposition forces very combative?"

"Nope. Thomson shook his head and said with an emotional expression: "Because of the assistance from our government, coupled with the proceeds from drug smuggling, the opposition forces have accumulated a huge amount of wealth, and they have used this money to hire many mercenaries with rich combat experience and strong combat effectiveness to help them fight." Three drug sweeps were all thwarted by these mercenaries. ”

When Thomson said this, Jin Lingling roughly understood a little and asked, "This is one of these mercenaries...... Jerry Pong?"

"I don't know what his Chinese name is, only that he is Chinese. At first, he was unknown among the skilled mercenaries, but later he commanded a small force under his command to defeat the Delta at Heights III, and since then he has become a prominent figure in the jungles of South America. ”

"I see. Your government has never admitted such a thing, has it?"

Thomson smiled and said noncommittally: "The failure of Heights No. 3 has prevented our government from launching any military operations in South America, even in a confidential state, in order to avoid greater casualties. ”

"This man has caused you so much loss, didn't your government find a way to assassinate him?"

"You Chinese have a saying: 'When two countries fight each other, each for its own master'. He is a good military man, and that's enough. In fact, our government sometimes spends money on mercenaries to carry out special tasks when it is inconvenient to send troops. Jerry Pang is not the mastermind, and he can't decide anything in politics. Even if he died, someone else would immediately take his place. ”

"As an officer of the Drug Control Bureau, of course you know these inside stories. ”

"There were a few times when I wanted to catch him, but he had a strong anti-detection ability, and every time he managed to escape. ”

"If this man is just a pawn, why are you arresting him?"

"At first, it was purely out of curiosity to know what made an ordinary young man a great mercenary, but I soon discovered that it was not that simple. ”

When Jin Lingling heard this, she immediately realized that Thomson was about to say something she didn't know next, that is, Pang Jindong had never mentioned it to herself. She hurriedly asked, "What's not easy?"

"Ten years ago, this man immigrated to our country with his parents, and then his parents owed debts to the mafia, and then suffered misfortune in a car accident. I have reason to believe that he became a mercenary to pay off this debt. He disappeared less than a year after the death of his parents, and then suddenly appeared in the jungles of South America, where he was an excellent warrior from the moment. According to the documents declared at the time of immigration, he did not serve in the military in your country, and he was only a teenager at the time, and he could not have had a military career before. ”

Jin Lingling said: "So you are very strange, what made him so good all of a sudden, but this is not enough to show that things are complicated!"

Thomson shook his head and said, "You listen to me when I finish talking." He left after five years as a mercenary, and for five years no one knew where he was or what he was doing. In other words, five years of his life were completely blank. I searched all the materials I could find, and then transferred to the FBI, where I had access to some of the more classified information, but I still couldn't find a clue. But at the same time, he has been seen in a number of serious cases that have appeared in various states of our country. Although there is no evidence, I believe that it is him. After a moment of silence, Thomson continued: "Many of these cases involve politics. ”

"Is he a criminal?" When she asked this question, Jin Lingling felt her heart rise to her throat.

"Certainly not a victim!" Thomson frowned slightly, as if he was thinking at the same time: "But not a criminal either! It's strange to say what role he played in these cases, only that he played a very important role." I'm more inclined to say that he's pushing in the positive. ”

Jin Lingling's heart fell back to its original position, and at the same time, more questions arose: "Have you not interrupted the investigation in the past few years?"

"Yes!"

"Are there any breakthroughs?"
