Chapter 50: FBI Agents
The rest of the journey was smooth, with no twists and turns, except for the occasional small sandstorm.
The individual is in the driver's seat. Although Jiang Chen didn't have a car, he still had a driver's license, and there was no problem at all in driving this kind of pickup.
Considering that Tikrit might have fallen into the hands of IS, Roberts, after consulting with Nick and Jiang Chen, decided to make a slight arc, north along Lake Sersar, then east via Samarra, and then to Baghdad.
In short, try to avoid all battle hotspots.
At night, the four of them were still in the car for one night.
The sound of the planes gliding by in the air was a bit scary, but the shells didn't fall, and it was clear that the fluorescent sign still played a role.
Nick, a big Russian man, casually found a reason and switched positions with Jiang Chen. Roberts glanced at Jiang Chen ambiguously, lowered his voice and said in Jiang Chen's ear.
"Rest assured, we slept to death. If you were hehe, I wouldn't be watching. With that, Roberts glanced at Aisha, who was cowering in the corner of the saddle, with a somewhat playful expression.
"Get out of the ball!"
Not to mention that Jiang Chen is not that interested in it for the time being, even if he has, the taste can't be eaten.
For refugees fleeing for their lives, there is naturally no spare time to think about cleaning, and everything is based on survival.
Aisha also knew very well that she must be very stinky now, and her dirty face couldn't see any beauty, so she shrank in the corner of the car door with low self-esteem, hoping that it would not arouse Jiang Chen's disgust.
In fact, although she had some flavor on her, it didn't reach the kind of Cheng that Jiang Chen felt disgusted with. Jiang Chen could fall asleep as if nothing had happened in that stench-filled caravan, and he naturally didn't care about the smell.
What's more, Roberts, who hasn't taken a shower for a week, may be more stinky than her at the moment.
"I probably have a bit of a smell on me. However, I can guarantee that after taking a shower, my body will satisfy you. Aisha bit her lip and said, for her, saying this sentence had almost used up all her courage.
There were two whistles from the front, and apparently neither Roberts nor Nick slept.
These two animals, Jiang Chen scolded secretly.
"Ahem, no, I don't mind. "Huh, I always felt that something was wrong with that.
Aisha's cheeks flushed, but she couldn't see it under the dirty stains.
"Is it okay for an Islamic woman to marry a Han person? I heard that the Han people are Confucian. Roberts' teasing voice suddenly rang out.
She didn't speak, just looked at Jiang Chen.
That's what you think, and we think you're all Christians. You guys talk about ** a lot more times than God all day long. Also, didn't your Chinese teacher tell you that Confucianism is not a religion?" Jiang Chen scolded with a smile.
Of course, this is controversial.
Roberts shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Don't look at me like this, I still have prayers, when necessary." ”
Jiang Chen looked at Aisha, hesitated for a moment, and then said in a serious tone: "You have also heard, I have no faith, and I do not plan to believe in any religion in the future. I've heard that a woman of Islan can't marry a heathen, and even that doesn't matter?"
"It doesn't matter. Aisha shook her head, "You have removed for Allah the devil who has done evil in His name, you are my hero, and without you, I might have died in humiliation." Since you saved me, then I am your private property. ”
Jiang Chen's Adam's apple moved slightly, looking at the calm in her eyes, and finally said nothing.
To be honest, he's a little tempted.
How many men would not be interested in the beauty of the woman? Single for more than 20 years, the virgin is still lost in another world
Of course, it is not excluded that there are those good men who are clean and self-conscious. It's just that Jiang Chen is very frank that he is a layman, and he didn't have that kind of material foundation before, so naturally he didn't cultivate such elegant sentiments.
Follow it, follow it, anyway, there will be no less meat if you are followed. He has money and can afford it.
It might be nice to wash it, after all, it's exotic. Beautiful drivers and bodyguards?
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen felt a lot more relaxed, and he didn't worry about anything.
As for the two animals in front, they were already snoring like thunder at this time

In the early morning, the man simply nibbled on a few compressed biscuits, then drank two sips of water and served breakfast.
Judging by the GPS, their location is already very close to Baghdad. About 20 kilometers northwest of downtown Baghdad, four men were stopped by patrolling American GIs. After a brief examination, the soldiers did not embarrass them.
Roberts skillfully showed his green card to the squad leader on duty, and then borrowed a satellite phone on a Humvee. The guy crouched to the side and made several phone calls in a row before returning the call to the American GI on duty.
Although the behavior of these US soldiers in the local area can be said to be bad, they are still very restrained when they encounter their own citizens. After all, no one wants to receive a summons from their own court. The Ohio guy standing next to Jiang Chen also chatted with him, and he seemed to treat Jiang Chen as a reporter for CTV, asking Jiang Chen if he could give him a close-up.
As for Nick, who looked like a personal bodyguard, he leaned against the Humvee and smoked a cigarette.
Aisha cowered in the car, even though it was as hot as a steamer. From the distrustful look in her eyes, you can see how bad the reputation of these American soldiers is in this area.
Soon, a dark shadow appeared in the distance.
It was a bird helicopter, and on it, Jiang Chen also saw a familiar face.
The furious air currents from the propellers swept the sand from the ground in all directions, blowing ash on everyone's faces. When the bird stopped, the man sitting on the side unbuckled his seat belt and jumped off it.
"Bruce, haha, my old fellow, we're meeting again. Roberts grinned and hugged the mercenary in his combat uniform.
"**, why do you stink so much. Looks like you've been messing around lately?" Bruce patted Roberts on the back and immediately pushed him aside in disgust.
"Ahem, I've been a bit miserable lately, but it's all in the past. Roberts patted the dust off his body, revealing a mouth full of white teeth.
"I don't think things will be resolved so quickly, Mr. Roberts, and it's nice we're seeing each other again. ”
Another middle-aged man came down from the helicopter, who had a hooked nose and glanced at Jiang Chen with a very sharp gaze. This made Jiang Chen feel slightly uncomfortable, but he only frowned and didn't say anything.
"Ahem, Mr. Lawrence, it's a pleasure to meet you. Roberts smiled awkwardly and reached out to meet him.
"Looks like you escaped. Lawrence shrugged his shoulders and said casually.
Bruce walked up to Jiang Chen and said hello to Jiang Chen.
"That guy Roberts, I didn't expect you to help him. Bruce smiled bitterly, and then took the cigarette handed by Jiang Chen.
"Who's that guy? Roberts seems to be afraid of him. Jiang Chen spit out a smoke ring and smiled.
Lawrence Alden, FBI agent. ”
"Please don't divulge my personal information to unrelated foreigners, Mr. Bruce, or I'll have to challenge Blackwater International about the quality of your work. Lawrence overheard the conversation between the two, threw Roberts aside, and walked in Jiang Chen's direction.
Bruce rolled his eyes at Jiang Chen with his back to him, shrugged his shoulders and said, "In short, it's such a bad guy." ”
Jiang Chen watched Lawrence walk in front of him, and was stared at by that uncomfortable gaze for a long time before Lawrence slowly opened his mouth.
"Do you represent your country, or are you an individual?"
"Roberts and I are just business friends. Jiang Chen said lightly.
"Then I wish you a prosperous business, and I hope you don't meddle in your business. Lawrence didn't avoid Roberts at all, glanced at him, and said directly to Jiang Chen.
"Ahem, don't do that, man. Roberts rolled his eyes and spread his hands, "Maybe we can talk?"
"I'm not interested in the conflict between you, maybe you can discuss it privately?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Discuss?" Lawrence spread his hands and smiled at Roberts, "How are you going to discuss, 400 tons of crude oil from Iran, do you think the money is already crazy?"
"Isn't there no evidence yet?" Roberts smiled disappretently, then put a hand on Lawrence's shoulder, "Man, we can make a deal." ”
"Oh? Lawrence snorted noncommittally, but did not open Roberts' hand.
"In order to prevent this special situation from happening, doing business in sensitive areas, I usually sell a little bit of munitions. For example, the gunpowder at the bottom of a certain pressure box is empty and is loaded with a GPS signal. You can use your imagination as to where this batch of arms will go. A hint of sly flashed across Roberts' face.
Lawrence's face changed.
"Stuff. ”
"Here," Roberts grinned as he threw a smartphone into Lawrence's hand, "congratulations, Mr. Lawrence, the future head of the secret service, this is a great achievement." ”
"Your cleverness saved your life, and I am not to blame for the past. Lawrence glared at Roberts meaningfully, then slipped his phone in his purse and hurried to the bird helicopter, "Bruce, let's go, we need to get back to the aircraft carrier quickly." ”
"Okay, boss. Bruce answered, then shrugged his shoulders at Jiang Chen and followed.
"And that Barton! I've got to talk to him. Roberts shouted at the birdie that was taking off.
"Whatever you want!"
The so-called witness protection plan is just a verbal promise, whether it will be fulfilled or not, it is just a sentence from Lawrence.
"You have reached an agreement?" Jiang Chen walked over to Roberts and said casually.
"That's right. With GPS guidance, a single Tomahawk missile can lift those bastards into the sky. Tsk, I'm afraid that the natives are busy moving the arms into the arsenal. That's a big deal. Roberts smiled happily, and then hooked up with Jiang Chen, "No matter these politicians with on their hands, let's go to Baghdad for a drink, I'll treat you." ”
"Your nerves are big enough. Jiang Chen smiled bitterly.
"I've been in this business for a long time, and maybe it's time for me to think about industrial transformation. Roberts shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Iran's crude oil business can't be done, so we have to go to Saudi Arabia, and the shell company has to be shut down quickly." ”
After returning to the pickup truck and saying goodbye to the American GIs on duty, Roberts sat in the driver's seat and started the car and drove it in the direction of downtown Baghdad.
"Do you have any clue?" Jiang Chen said casually.
"A little bit of that's right! Movie! Haha, Hollywood producer is a good person, next time you come to Los Angeles to see me, I'll arrange for you to have a few Hollywood chicks to play. Roberts laughed.
"Hollywood star, can you play?" Jiang Chen glanced at Roberts with a smile.
Roberts had his hands on the steering wheel, grinning, "Los Angeles is a place full of dreams." As long as you're a producer, those blonde chicks who fantasize about overnight success will pout their ass and beg you to fuck. This damn dream, it's really his mother's awesome."
"It seems that the entertainment industry is the same in every country. Jiang Chen smiled, and suddenly remembered that Liu Yao.
A playful smile flashed across his face.
Why don't you get a producer to play with it? Anyway, it's just a matter of throwing money at it.
