Volume 1 Bath in Fire Chapter 291 Paradise of Paradise
Chapter 291: The Peach Blossom Spring
After several disputes, the island of Comoros, which was full of national sentiment, achieved full independence and elected its own president, prime minister, army, navy and air force, as well as a large number of policemen, a large number of mayors and governors, and so on, while the rest of the Comoros decided to remain in the French system in a way that was approved by them.
Mayotte remained within the French political system under the name of a "collective territory".
This system is the equivalent of a special zone, under the direct jurisdiction of the French president, who accepts the protection of the French army and renounces its diplomatic powers, but the governor of the island is elected by the inhabitants and then approved by the French government. Because the supreme leader is self-elected, and the judicial and governing power of the island is vested in the original inhabitants of the island, they are called collective territories and enjoy absolute autonomy, while France is only their nominal "motherland".
Of course, the inhabitants of the island still continue to follow the French law, the French police system, the French government's civil service evaluation, and even the tax rate system is completely French...... But this land belongs to the collective, and they can make their own decisions on this land, they choose their own police, they choose their own government personnel, and no one can represent them.
Today, Mayotte has a French army of thirty-two men, with a total of seven officials and a governor, and the island's taxpayers are responsible for supporting only the seven civil servants, including the police, and the excess tax is used to improve the island's medical facilities and infrastructure. From time to time, they also receive an additional overseas allowance from the Paris government.
Of course, the inhabitants of this collective territory do not have the right to vote in the French elections, they only have the right to vote in the elections on the island, but they are indeed French, and they are overseas residents recognized by the Paris government, so they can enter and leave France as freely as if they were going to their own vegetable gardens, and the island is scarce because of the strength of the armed forces and the number of law and order. Basically, the islanders get along with each other completely on moral constraints, and there are very few disputes, so few cases occur, so that the police on the island can only deal with cases such as cats and dogs climbing trees for many years.
In a sense, this state of complete islander autonomy resembles a paradise. Buying an island and reef in this kind of collective territory, basically what you think about in the reef, no one is interested in you. And if other countries are interested in your actions, the French army will protect you, and the Comoros and nearby African countries have tried to annex the collective territory of Mayotte, but the presence of French troops on the island has put them in the dark and finally extinguished the fighting.
Mademoiselle Baroness continued: "You have just come from the Sea of Glass, and the Sea of Glass is not suitable for hiding things, the depth of water is more than a hundred meters, and the water depth of more than a hundred meters looks as shallow as a basin, and your baby is driving underwater, and I believe that any bird flying in the sky can see it clearly......"
An Feng cut off Miss Baron's words: "Well, whether in Comoros or Mayotte, are there any islands for sale?" ”
"How is that possible? Do you know that the latest reward for buying Mayotte Island property was issued about 40 years ago, and the collective collar is not big, no matter who has the collective collar property, it will not be easily sold, you want to buy the reef or the island there, Ha Luha, please me. ”
An Feng's eyes lit up: "Do you have the goods in your hands?" ”
Miss Baroness giggled and replied: "That's right, I have a small island in my hand, the area is not large, about seven kilometers long, no more than three kilometers wide, there is an extinct volcano on the island, which is not too big or small, and now the crater has become a lake, the mountain is more than 1,100 meters high, the island is full of rocks and tropical rainforests, it is hot and humid all year round, and there is almost no production."
The island...... As you know, the property tax levied in France has been getting higher and higher, and the personal income tax has reached 50 percent, so the owner can't stand it, and he is willing to rent the island forever. You can sign a 100-year lease during which the island will be yours to use, but the property will remain with the owner.
You're just looking for a habitat to hide your treasure, so keep the island in a desolate state so it doesn't increase the owner's taxes. Well, because there is no production on that small island, and the air is humid and hot, there are not many tourists, and one of the houses on the island has been covered by tropical rainforest, even if you fly low over the island, you can hardly see any buildings on the island, which is simply the best place to hide. If you have time, I can accompany you tomorrow to have a look. ”
At this time, An Feng had already marched to the vicinity of the airport, the seaplane that the suspect was waiting for had landed, the owner was unloading the cargo transported on the plane, and Odney had already disguised himself as a ground maintenance personnel, infiltrated the plane, installed the corresponding listening and surveillance equipment, and was getting off the plane.
"Whatever I do, you're not curious, are you?" An Feng asked on the phone.
Miss Clinton thought for a moment and replied, "Well, I can ask nothing." ”
As he spoke, Oldney, who was dressed in cargo pants, passed by An Feng, and at this time, Oldney was carrying a small toolbox in his hand, disguised as a descendant of French immigrants, and followed a group of ground pilots to the spare parts warehouse
The maintenance engineer at the head said as he walked, "...... Our previous judgment was correct, the engine did get some water, but it was not a big problem, we immediately replaced the pontoons and cleaned the engine. However, the pontoons must be replaced in pairs to ensure the complete balance of the aircraft, and the old pontoons are severely worn, which will lead to ......"
An Feng turned to the other side of the hangar, and at this time, the ground crew supervisor walked towards An Feng enthusiastically, and the suspect stood at the entrance of the hangar from a distance, watching the movement here.
The ground handling supervisor earnestly asked An Feng what requirements he had here, and An Feng immediately showed his flight license and asked to rent a twin-engine small seaplane...... There are not too many restrictions on people with a flight license to rent an airplane, because the pilot's license itself is not cheap, and it is registered in the global network, such a person rents your plane, it is impossible to drive your plane to other countries for resale, because the aircraft is also registered in the global network, and during the flight, the whole process is monitored by ground air traffic control personnel, except for a few people with ulterior motives, most of the pilots who rent the plane, they will strictly fulfill the contract.
After paying five days' rent, An Feng rented a twin-engine four-passenger seaplane, at this time, the plane rented by the suspect had been unloaded, and the ground crew began rapid maintenance, and about six hours later, the plane could be put into use.
Such an itinerary is arranged by the suspect, because the plane is a very fuel-consuming machine, and the test flight also consumes more than ten tons of fuel...... It's as wild as Madagascar.
At dawn, Miss Baroness drove into the airport in an Aston Martin convertible, wearing large sunglasses on her face and a large brightly colored scarf covering her head, dressed like Vivien Leigh in the black-and-white movies of the last century.
The radiant Miss Clinton saw An Feng on the side of the hangar, slammed the brakes, the wheels made a sharp scream, and a faint light smoke was scattered at An Feng's feet, Miss Baron laughed loudly, jumped out of the car with a basket, and shook the basket at An Feng: "I brought breakfast, will we take off now?" ”
An Feng looked around, and Miss Baron immediately explained: "I didn't bring bodyguards, I think with you, there is no problem with my safety." ”
This sentence was not only heard by An Feng, but also by the busy aircraft maintenance personnel, as well as the suspect, at this time the suspect had already completed the procedures for renting the aircraft, the maintenance engineers had completed the maintenance work, and were in the process of re-inspection, and the ground supervisor of the hangar had not yet gone to work, and there was not much in the entire hangar.
A ground crew member had a look, he trotted to the side of the Aston Martin car, almost drooling and caressing the body of the supercar, and asked attentively: "Miss, do you need to serve you?" ”
Miss Baroness didn't raise her eyelids: "Park my car well, don't let others touch it." ”
The courteous young man's eyes showed ecstasy, he said yes loudly, immediately jumped into the convertible, started the car almost in fear, and then kicked the accelerator, and the car swooped out......
Miss Baron went up to hold An Feng's shoulders, and the two of them walked to the rented plane in a whisper, An Feng just started the aircraft engine, and several people came over to open the hangar door attentively, and then watched An Feng drive the plane out of the hangar.
The hangar area is very large, a separate hangar is hundreds of meters long and hundreds of meters wide, and as for the maintenance of aircraft, the length is more than several kilometers. An Feng's plane drove past the corner of the hangar, he paused slightly, and jumped up along the cabin door with his left hand and right hand, and the lizard and wild cat, each carrying a marching backpack......
The Baroness, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, glanced back, and continued to talk to An Feng casually, and kept stuffing sausages and bread into An Feng's mouth, and frequently wiped the traces on An Feng's mouth with a napkin.
"I've brought you the ring I'm talking about, it's in my pocket, I'll give it to you later...... I don't know how to locate the road in the air, I know the latitude and longitude of the island, and the location is...... How to fly over you can do it yourself. ”
When An Feng's plane took off, he circled over the airport for a week, and during the hovering process, he communicated with the tower about the flight altitude and other details, at this time he saw a bus from the air into the hangar, and the bus stopped by the hangar door, and the hangar door did not close An Feng looked at the hangar door after An Feng left, and found that more than ten men carrying backpacks were jumping down from the bus.
Has the "Doomsday Plan" been launched? An Feng was a little skeptical.
But the mastermind behind the "Doomsday Plan", the computer kitten immediately explained: "Bait, this is a bait, in the recent period, because of the sudden disappearance of the munitions ship, the doomsday plan, the actors have accelerated their actions, there have been tribal clashes in many countries near Kinshasa, the military and police of the local countries have been attracted to the past, and the attention of some intelligence agencies has also been attracted to the past, and now, the real actors, I actually don't know where they are hiding." ”
An Feng squirmed his lips in surprise, and asked silently, "Could it be that you are out of control of this plan?" ”
The computer kitten replied softly: "You know, when this plan was launched, everyone fell into a state of communication isolation, I don't know where each of their teams is hidden, I only know that the plan has begun to start."
At this time, Miss Baron took out a blue diamond ring from her pocket, patted An Feng's arm, and motioned for the other party to raise her hand, she put the ring on the middle finger of An Feng's left hand, and at the same time nagged trivially: "Capricorn Palace should be melancholy blue, I don't know how your predecessor likes black, fortunately I was able to correct it this time, aha, there is finally a Capricorn Palace that meets my heart." ”
At this time, An Feng's mobile phone signal is interrupted from time to time, because this sea area is very vast, and the small islands that can live are very rare, and most of the mobile phone signals forwarded through the base station on the island belong to the signal blind zone, and through satellite forwarding, the satellites that pass through this sea area are extremely rare.
At this time, only the signal of the computer kitten was very clear, because the nuclear submarine where the kitten was located had already sailed to this sea area, just below the sea area where An Feng's plane flew.
The signal forwarded by the computer kitten was not worried about being monitored by the air traffic control department, and Odney, who stayed on the island, softly informed An Feng: "Twenty-one people, plus their pilot, have already boarded the plane, and the people in the hangar feel abnormal, but none of them have stopped it." ”
An Feng replied casually: "Is your situation safe?" ”
Oldney smiled and replied: "I'm not in the hangar right now, I'm hiding in the spare parts warehouse not far away, and I'm watching them with a telescope, rest assured, the plane has been installed with surveillance equipment, and we can see their every move."
At this time, An Feng's demeanor was very strange, the plane was flying to the rocky island that Miss Baron said, and there was silence in the communicator at this time, but An Feng suddenly began to talk to himself, Miss Baron glanced at An Feng, and did not question this strangeness.
When An Feng's plane flew over the island, the suspect's plane also took off, and it was said that he had filled up enough fuel to fly a range of 1,500 miles.
At this time, shortly after the morning prayer time in Islam, the sun jumped over the horizon no more than three rods high, and the shape of the island was very clear in the sun. The small island near the equator is lush and green, almost everywhere is verdant, and there is no color of the land in sight, and the center of the island is like a bull's eye, giving birth to a pool of green springs, except for this pool of water, the rest of the island ......
This is simply a complete bonsai of strange rocks, the lava caused by volcanic eruptions makes the island's strange peaks beautiful, and the crazy breeding grounds of the tropical rainforest make these strange peaks and strange rocks densely covered with a layer of vegetation, there are no roads and no directions between the vegetation.
From the radar of the aircraft, it can be seen that there was originally a pier on the island, and there was a wide asphalt road in the dock area leading to the nearest reef, on which was built a round bunkerhouse, or a two-story barn-like building, but now, under the cover of the rainforest, there are no roads on the island, no houses, thick vines have completely covered the original stone house, and the radar shows that even the walls of the stone house are overgrown with trees, as well as various aerial roots.
The computer kitten looked at the scene at the same time, and immediately praised: "This place is so good." ”
An Feng immediately turned to Miss Baron: "I decided to sign a lease agreement with you, how much is the rent?" ”
Mademoiselle Baroness grinned, "The rent is three times the tax, and I need two percent of it as a commission—although our relationship is not ordinary, business is business." ”
At this time, the suspect began to fly at a low altitude with the plane, and the nearby air traffic control department did not notice that the plane was out of the radar line of sight, because the ground radar calculation in this sea area was too small, and the air satellite did not notice the disappearance of the radar signal for a while - if the plane did not take the initiative to contact the aircraft satellite, the satellite could not pay attention to the aircraft.
A quarter of an hour later, the captain of the ground in Zanzibar was slow to find that the aircraft signal had disappeared, and the airport air traffic control personnel began to mechanically call the plane to answer, and An Feng had switched to the satellite screen with the help of the computer kitten, and observed the flight trajectory of the plane all the way on the satellite image - the Tornado Security Company is gradually launching space satellites and establishing its own global monitoring network, at this time, there is a space satellite belonging to the Tornado Company over the Indian Ocean.
The seaplane flew about 300 nautical miles close to the water, when a fishing boat appeared in the sea area where the seaplane flew, and the seaplane circled around the fishing boat and landed on the sea, and a person on the fishing boat fired a rope with a whaling fork, and after the people on the plane grabbed the whaling fork that was fired, the people on the fishing boat began to send various arms boxes to the plane through this rope.
Miss Baron stopped talking at this time, she had already seen the abnormal dynamics of the plane from the computer screen that An Feng placed on the bridge, but An Feng was still in contact with the tower normally at this time, and made a return move, Miss Baron covered her mouth with her hands, staring at the computer screen with wide eyes, she was afraid that her surprise would be heard by the people in the tower.
After An Feng finished communicating with the people in the tower and turned off the intercom, Miss Baron pointed to the computer screen, but immediately she didn't say a word, turned her head to look out the window.
"You are safe, I will put you on a fishing boat later, you can rest assured, I will not let you go through danger."
Miss Baron thought about it, took out another black diamond ring from her pocket, she stuffed it into An Feng's hand, and didn't say anything, An Feng had begun to lower the nose of the plane at this time, dived to the sea, and flew at a low altitude, at the same time, in the intermittent mobile phone signal, Ruien kept sending signals, asking An Feng to confirm his location.
An Feng thought for a while, switched the computer screen he saw just now, forwarded it to Ryan via satellite, and left a message to Ryan at the same time: "My suspected target has started to operate, they have obtained weapons supplies at sea, and now, I ask for action instructions." ”
Ryan replied at the intermittent signal connection time: "Yes, the sun is rising—we have detected that all the suspects are in action, and we are seriously understaffed, so in the waters you are responsible for, allow you to judge according to common sense." ”
