0106 The situation has changed
Xie Bin was also accustomed to Tang Yan's way of speaking, so he directly chose to ignore it.
"I also found out this morning, in the past, this kind of auction was in a vacant villa, but this time it suddenly changed the location, saying that it was on a yacht. The place I was referring to was a yacht club, and I got a call in the morning informing me that today's auction was going to be on a yacht. ”
Hearing this news, Tang Yan also understood why Xie Bin wanted to talk to him again.
On the second day, Xie Bin had already told Tang Yan about the content of this mission from his superiors, and the cultural relics about the shipwreck were actually true, but the identity of the international thief was not as simple as a thief. On the one hand, he is a clergyman, and on the other hand, he has a deeper hidden identity, a multinational spy.
The so-called multinational spy refers to the person who is not an agent trained by the intelligence agency of any country, but because he is engaged in a relatively special industry and is active in various countries, and valuable cultural relics are destined to have access to high-ranking officials and nobles in various countries, so that the possibility of obtaining some information from various countries has increased a lot. An unexpected miss, he was targeted by the British, at first it was just a normal pursuit, but this guy was too cunning, and he escaped again and again under strict pursuit, but the British blocked the whole territory, and he couldn't leave the British border.
After a few encounters, he piqued the interest of Scotland Yard and eventually British intelligence, who tried to recruit the guy and felt that he definitely had the potential to be 007.
Although he escaped the pursuit each time, he was equally exhausted, and when British intelligence found him, he chose to negotiate with the British.
He is a thief of freedom, and the reason why he became a thief is that he advocates maximum freedom, of course, it is impossible to agree to die for the British, but the British are pressing too hard, and he can only choose to make some compromises. The result of the compromise was that he could gather some information for the British while engaging in theft and trading in antiquities, but the British had no right to order him what to do, and the British had to pay for the information he collected.
In this way, he quickly became a political-military intelligence monger, previously operating mainly in Europe and Africa, but this time he actually entered the territory of the Republic.
The military is vague about the identity of this person, and even the British, who are most closely associated with this person, do not know his true identity, let alone other countries. The reason why I knew these things was because of an agent in the country. The agent had been active in North Africa for a long time, and his ancestors were Captain Jin, and occasionally did some private work. He had come into contact with this person because of a private job, and he had formed a group with this person to rob an ancient tomb. The location of that tomb is quite special, just below the presidential palace of that country. Then, he found that this person was not only interested in the contents of the ancient tomb, but also found out the information of the country's air and military defenses. He paid attention, and soon found out that this person had sold this information to several different countries, and this person's hidden identity was about to be revealed.
This agent has long since returned to the country, and this person has even contacted him after entering the territory of the Republic this time. Of course, this person didn't know the identity of the agent, otherwise he wouldn't have been in contact with the agent if he was killed.
The General Staff directly suspects that this person's entry into the territory of the Republic is by no means just to sell those cultural relics, and that the Americas are not his usual scope of activities, so the military suspects that this person's entry into the country this time is likely to have some espionage purposes, especially since after he entered the country, he came into contact with the children of high-ranking domestic officials, which makes people even more worried.
That's why Xie Bin has this mission, the purpose is very clear, to block the possibility of this person from obtaining any domestic intelligence. Of course, if there is conclusive evidence, it is obviously better to arrest this person and obtain greater benefits. However, if he is arrested only for the crime of reselling cultural objects, international extradition law is involved, and he is usually required to be extradited back to the country where he is internationally located for trial. For this kind of person, secret arrest will not work, he has the background of several European countries behind him, and the pressure from these countries alone is difficult for the military to bear, not to mention the existence of a Holy See, the military leadership directly suspects that the reason why this person can obtain the status of a clergyman in the Holy See is largely due to the umbrella that a certain country helped him find. Once a secret arrest is carried out, the protest of the Holy See in the name of religion alone will be enough for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to drink a pot.
Of course, Xie Bin was not willing to complete the task of blocking this person's access to intelligence, and he hoped to get evidence that this person was engaged in intelligence trading, so as to publicly arrest him. Not to mention the role that exchanging spies with other countries can play, the information that can be obtained from his hands alone is enough to make the military excited.
Today's auction was temporarily changed to a ship.
Of course, this is obviously not to escape or evade the law or anything like that, this is just an inland river, not the high seas, and it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to try to evade legal punishment in this way.
Xie Bin asked who proposed to change the venue as soon as he got the news, but he did not get an accurate answer.
However, I couldn't ask for the result, but I could guess it by guessing. In this auction, according to Xie Bin's news, in addition to the fact that the organizer is still the same high-ranking official, the most important thing in the auction is the person who was targeted by him.
And that high-ranking official obviously didn't need to change the venue after that, the original villa was also his property, but now he had to change to a rented yacht, which was obviously not that person's style. Besides, although this kind of auction is more or less illegal, who has the courage to find trouble with such a high-ranking official? What's more, those who are eligible to participate in this auction are not equipped with rare treasures in their hands, that is, after high-ranking officials or wealthy businessmen, to put it bluntly, they all have to shake the ground three times when they stomp their feet, and no one will be full of food and have nothing to do to disturb such a group of people. Then, the change of venue is even more unnecessary.
Then, the only explanation is that the person who holds the treasure asks the organizer to change the venue under the pretext of safety.
This person's purpose is also very easy to explain, on the water, the safety factor for him is obviously higher, whether there is an ambush around the yacht, you can know at a glance. And around the villa, there are so many places where you can hide a few people.
"In fact, this so-called increase in the safety factor is also a very childish means, right? It's easy for your military to get a few frogmen to ambush around the yacht, right? Tang Yan began to feel that the IQ of the so-called international thief was also very problematic.
"That's what he said, but as soon as he gave this notice relatively suddenly, the temporary transfer of people is not so easy, and if he really finds someone to come, this matter will cause a relatively large movement. Second, he is more of a psychological comfort, in fact, no matter what, the military should also pay attention to the influence, in front of so many second-generation people, there will definitely be unnecessary trouble. Some leaders advocate that as long as the person is not given any chance to obtain any information, some leaders advocate taking it down and maximizing the benefits. ”
Tang Yan frowned: "Can you be a little assertive?" I hate you soldiers the most, Nima training is to turn left and right without an idea, and you don't have an idea about this kind of thing? ”
Xie Bin was speechless for a while, Tang Yan was talking about a serious matter, and he was out of the way for a while, his brain was spinning very fast, and the direction was very weird, flickering left and right, and the position was extremely erratic, if my country's men's football team had such a striker talent, it would have been in the top four of the World Cup long ago.
"And what the hell do you think?" Tang Yan asked helplessly.
"I want to take this guy!" Regarding this point, Xie Bin has a very accurate idea, he has always had the intention of winning this person from the beginning of accepting this task.
"That's fine, if you don't think anymore, I'm really too lazy to care about your."
"It's probably about the national system, and you actually say it's a broken thing?"
"It's about Lao Tzu's, how much can leaking state secrets affect Lao Tzu? Will the Nima Americans fight or will the British have another Opium War? ”
Xie Bin was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it, as if what Tang Yan said was also reasonable, not to mention that this person is actually unlikely to have access to particularly important state secrets, and even if it is really a major secret leak, the impact on the people is minimal. Whether it is politics or military, it is too far away from ordinary people.
"Then someone has taken the secret away, it's a very slap in the face, right?" Xie Bin now understands Tang Yan's thinking pattern to some extent, and he knows that Tang Yan will never allow others to slap him in the face.
It's a pity that Xie Bin still doesn't know enough about Tang Yan, and only understands Tang Yan's surface.
Tang Yan rolled his eyes: "Idiot, it's you guys who hit you in the face, and it's about Lao Tzu's birds." ”
Xie Bin was stunned again, he finally understood Tang Yan's logic completely, for Tang Yan, what collective sense of honor and what national righteousness are bullshit, he is just a small people, all he wants is to live a better life, it seems that this kind of thinking seems to be very selfish, and there is no national self-esteem, but this is what the vast majority of ordinary people think. The thinking of ordinary people and professional soldiers is not on the same level.
"Anyway, you are an expert in cultural relics, and after you get on the ship, if you have the opportunity to contact him, you can talk to him more about art......"
"Talk about wool! Lao Tzu can't speak English again! Tang Yan felt that Xie Bin's IQ was really hopeless, and at the same time, he also felt that the IQ of the leaders of the army was also hopeless.
(Do you dare to let me update a few more chapters?) - Hey, how do you have a masochistic tendency? Nima, no matter, dare not? Do you dare? Lao Tzu is masochist, you come to abuse me!! Actually, I'm talking about monthly passes, you know! )
