Chapter 12: Flying to France
Early in the morning, Beixue was still busy looking up all kinds of information and materials from the newly brought laptop, she hadn't rested since talking to me last night, even when I got up and went downstairs, she was still concentrating on some references, Vaughn didn't know where to sleep, the room was very quiet.
I came to the kitchen, found some food bags with some instant coffee, boiled a pot of boiling water, brewed two cups and brought them to Beixue, Beixue smelled the aroma of coffee, turned her head and saw me putting the coffee cup on the glass coffee table, and said with a slight smile: "Fortunately, I have gained something today." ”
I was shocked and asked, "What did you find?" ”
For the past three days, Beixue has been trying to confirm her analysis that night, and in the face of Vaughn's questioning, she must find an explanation for our surveillance, and with her computer, which can be connected to the government at any time, she collects information not only faster but also twice the result with half the effort.
Beixue said, "Vaughn went out to buy breakfast, and I'll explain it to you when he comes back." ”
Just then, Vaughn pushed the door open, put the food on the table, and walked over, saying, "What must wait for me to come back?" ”
I was wondering how he knew what we had just said, when Beixue said disapprehantly, "Don't think I don't know, you installed a bugging device on the armrest of the sofa, how can I hear your suggestion if you don't come back?" ”
Vaughn took off the small bugging device from the armrest of the sofa and shook it in front of me, only to see a small thing the size of a small thumb with a black button in his pocket, Vaughn explained: "It's my habit, and the bugs here can not only know the situation of my partner, but also respond in time if something happens." ”
It dawned on me that I had never cooperated with anyone, even if I had killed the target of the mission with other killers before, but it was all planned in advance, and in the event of an accident, I could only rely on my own ability to get out of danger, because there is no trust between the killer and the killer, and if you want to install surveillance objects such as bugs, it will only make the killer's profession more distrustful.
Beixue took a sip of coffee, leaned back on the sofa and said, "You may not believe me when I say it, but a few days before Mark came to Oxford, there were more than a dozen delicious fast food restaurants on the way to Oxford, which is the accurate information I got from the commercial registration department." ”
Vaughn said, "As Beixue said, if that's the case, then it wouldn't be a problem to shoot your video, but I'm still hard to believe it's all arranged." ”
I took a deep breath and asked, "So since they have the ability to open so many chain stores in one go, there will always be a huge group of companies to do this, right?" ”
Bei Xue said seriously: "In fact, this fast food restaurant is only available on a dozen or so roads to Oxford in that area, and the owner of this fast food restaurant is a person without any background, the business of chain stores is whoever has money, who can do it, he doesn't matter where he opens the store or who opens the store, so to check the backstage of these chain stores, like a mess, I don't know where to start, I can't do such a lot of work alone." ”
I thought, "Logically, there's no reason for that person behind the scenes to know that I'm coming to Oxford!" ”
Beixue comforted me and said, "Now that we know the truth of the matter, there is no need to get to the bottom of it, as for how that person knew our whereabouts, I think only God knows." ”
The three of us looked at each other, and a little fear and confusion rose in our hearts at the same time, what kind of enemy are we facing?
Beixue said again: "We have temporarily set the enemy's target as Lake, because even I am led by his nose, and if I want to avenge our group, I will steal things, I told Vaughn the whole story, so he basically understands some of the situation very clearly, so these days I am not only verifying, but also making a preliminary plan for us to go to France." ”
Vaughn nodded and said: "The above sent me to complete the mission, and a lot of consideration was made, because the British agents went to steal French things, if they were publicized, it would not be allowed politically or diplomatically, and this mission was very difficult, from the destruction of the H.G team, it can be seen that the other party is not only technically powerful, but also very powerful in terms of information, so since we are going this time, we are equivalent to leaving the position of British agents, and even if we are caught, the British side will not be involved, So these can only be done without being known, and this kind of thing is within the limits of top secret in any country. ”
Besher continued, "Considering the dangers and uncertainties involved, Vaughn and I don't think we should bring Alice with us, after all, she doesn't have the skills and skills we have. ”
Before I could say anything, there was a flurry of footsteps going upstairs, and all three of us knew that Alice had just woken up and had just heard our conversation.
Beixue glanced at me and said, "The most important decision is in your hands, of course, it depends on Alice's meaning, although it is difficult, but in the end it is up to you to decide." ”
At Beixue's suggestion, I went upstairs, leaving Beixue and Vaughn to continue their discussion.
I came to Alice's room, knocked lightly, and asked, "Can I come in?" ”
Inside, Alice replied, "Please come in." ”
When I got to the room, I saw Alice in a white cool shirt and blue jeans with her back to me, standing in front of the windowsill.
I came up behind Alice, wrapped my arms around her waist, and asked, "Did you hear what we said?" ”
Alice nodded and said, "I don't want to be a burden to you, and I don't want to leave you, what should I do?" ”
I said gently: "I never thought of letting you go, you can rest assured, I will protect you, and we will never be separated." ”
Alice turned around and was moved, "Mark, I love you." ”
We kissed each other passionately, and when we opened our eyes and looked at each other affectionately, everything seemed so insignificant.
Alice and I walked downstairs hand in hand, and Bess saw this and said to us, "You have decided?" ”
We nodded, no one understood my relationship with Alice better than Beixue, and Beixue happily said, "That's fine, if this question is given to me to answer, I don't know how to choose." ”
Bei Xue took out two account cards, handed them over and said: "I guess you will go with you, so I made some changes in the plan, this is your new ID card, except that the name has not changed, I have changed the surname, this ID card is specially made for you after research, not only can it pass the identity verification, but if your name is checked, it does have someone, but it will not be found on your head." ”
I took the card and saw that it had Mark Anzer's name on it, and the other card had Alice Cruz's name on it.
Beixue gave us passports from the United Kingdom, the United States, and France, and she explained: "These three passports are real, because you now have British nationality, so you can live in these three countries wherever you want in the future, and after completing the mission in France this time, if you want to go to other countries, I will make a passport for you again for the country you want to go to, as a reward for you." ”
I saw that Beixue thought so thoughtfully for us, and said gratefully, "Thank you." ”
Alice asked, "Where is Vaughn?" ”
I realized that Vaughn was not downstairs, and there was no trace of him when I looked around, and Beixue smiled: "Vaughn is very good at doing things, let him take the first step, and it is better to go separately, at least let the mysterious person who can know our whereabouts, it is best not to understand, I see that we have been walking according to his plan, so we can't get rid of his 'surveillance'." ”
We feel helpless in the face of this almost invisible enemy.
Beixue continued: "This time we leave here, whether Rudolph can find you or not, at least you have moved places, it will not be so easy for him to come back to you again, so here in England we have to leave." ”
After the three of us finished breakfast, it was almost noon, and Beixue said to us after the meal: "I'll go to sleep first, our plane is at 20:00 tonight, remember to wake me up at 15:00 in the afternoon." ”
When Bess went to bed, I taught Alice to play with the computer, and Alice was so interested in this new thing for her that time slipped away unconsciously.
I woke up at 15:00 and we packed up and walked out of the villa, where she drove slowly towards Oxford University in the silver Mercedes E500 I had driven from Dover.
Our destination was of course Professor Dorcus's institute, and when we arrived at the institute, we saw many college students, or people who came and went here, and they were all attracted by the demeanor of our group, and the very different beauty of Becky and Alice attracted the attention of those boys like a magnet.
When they came to the institute, Professor Dorcus and Theresia had been waiting in the reception room for a long time, and they were naturally overjoyed to meet Bescher, who had not met since coming to Oxford, and she naturally had a lot to say in the face of her former teacher.
After a round of cordial conversations, Professor Dorcus smiled: "Thanks to Beixue for sending you to me, now I have made a breakthrough in Mark's cell research, and I will let my computer and Beixue's computer dock and set up the online state later, so you can look at my research results at any time in the future." ”
Of course, I wanted to know more about the effect of these cells on my body, but I remembered something and worried, "Have you found out the whereabouts of the lab rats that escaped from here?" ”
Theresia shook her head and said, "I didn't find anything out of the ordeal, but I always had a bad feeling."
Professor Dorcus interrupted, "It's useless to worry now, who knows where that little thing is going to go?" Maybe it's starving to death, and if it can bring any harm here, it will appear a long time ago. ”
It makes sense for everyone to think about it, so they have to stop thinking about it for the time being.
Professor Dorcas heard that we were going to France, and he had to invite us to dinner at the famous Western restaurant, which was already dark when we drove to the restaurant.
By the time the street lights were on, we had finished our dinner, said goodbye to Professor Dorcus and his assistant Theresia, and headed for Heathrow.
Heathrow International Airport, 20 kilometres from central London, is the centre of air traffic throughout Europe and is also the headquarters of British Airways, the world's largest airline, and is only about an hour's drive from Oxford.
Beixue drove on the road, and the headlights that missed were left behind the car, drawing long lines of light.
Parking in the parking lot of the airport, the three of us walked into the airport hall, the airport hall was brightly lit, everything was orderly, and the people waiting to board the plane and the people who had just gotten off the plane shuttled, interweaving various footsteps to form a tap dance with a tight rhythm.
When Bei Xue went to the ticket counter to pick up the booked air ticket, the news was broadcasting in the hall, and I saw a blonde ** host, who was broadcasting a report: "A few days ago in the suburbs of Oxford, a case of robbery and cremation, the police are actively investigating, and there are preliminary results, please see the report sent back by the reporter in front."
As soon as the picture turned, a relatively fat officer wearing a police hat and a police uniform said into the microphone in front of the one: "After our police investigation, it was finally determined that it was a gangster rush case, because we found the guns of both of them in the deserted garden not far away, citizens near Oxford, please pay attention to the police, please call the police if you find it, we will catch the suspect as soon as possible, this gang of gangsters may not have left the city, please pay more attention to the suspicious situation, thank you." ”
The picture bounced back to the blonde ** host, she said: "This vicious rush incident caused the serious consequences of seven people being killed and burned, I hope the general public will cooperate to find clues, and the next is the call for help and the news group call"
We boarded the plane to France, and who would have thought that this murderer would fly to France with a 100% British passport?
When we got on the plane, the beautiful stewardess said as she walked, "The plane is about to take off, please fasten your seat belts." ”
Alice was on a plane for the first time and whispered to Bell.
I watched as the portholes of the plane gradually moved farther and farther from the ground, and gradually the lights of the city turned into tiny dots like fireflies, and then after entering the clouds, the plane melted into the night sky, and under the twinkling of the stars, the plane's indicator light flashed like a moving star, moving towards the sky over France.
