Chapter 266: The Final Goal (01)

In fact, things are far from being as simple as expected, even if the military doctors are willing to use hamsters to exchange for more people, there are many difficulties in actual operation, after all, this kind of thing is absolutely disgraceful, although the hostage exchange to avoid further casualties to the greatest extent and stimulate the people's tense nerves, but also from the side to prove their incompetence, the huge and intelligence agencies have ended up in a compromise with the terrorists, which will virtually make the public's trust in it greatly reduced, and at the same time the opposition also seized this opportunityHe began to attack the ruling party on a large scale, laughing at their cowardice and accusing them of incompetence, which for a time caused the entire top leadership to shake up, and they were busy and exhausted.

"Judging from the current situation, even if they can replace all the people back, it is estimated that the people will not believe them." The ghost said as he looked at the news report on TV.

"If we can find Carroll and carry out a successful rescue operation, we may be able to salvage some of the situation, but now it seems that there is little hope." "Carol knows a lot about the style of the CIA and knows how to use his own resources to avoid pursuit, so it's not so easy to find him." ”

Indeed, as Heavy Punch said, although all organizations or individuals, including military doctors, invested a lot of energy to find Carol's whereabouts, but in the end there was no gain, although some traceable clues were also collected during the period, but the role was quite limited, and even once they confirmed Carol's hiding place, but after arriving, they found that the building was empty, and all signs indicated that Carol had left for no more than ten minutes.

"It is estimated that all the agents in Asia are concentrated in the 20,000 square kilometers of South Asia that can be identified, but even if you go to 20,000 people, you will not be able to find what they are looking for in that area." The ghost shook his head and sighed and said, "In the past two days, they have indeed done a lot of work, but it is basically a waste of time, Carol has already gained the upper hand, and now the hamster has also been transported away, although there are more people who have been exchanged this time, when there are still five people in his hands, including Natasha and the leader of the group hired by 03 and HK, it seems that this guy knows the value of the chips in his hand, and several key people are under his control." ”

"He's not a fool, of course he knows the weight of the chips in his hand, and now that Wade and the hamster have been brought back by him, and we're only left with Leenes and Burns, and Remo Galli, I'm curious, why didn't he get his boss's son back." Heavy punch said.

"In fact, he once made this request, but his back refused, and the military doctor is not stupid, of course he understands the value of Remo Galli, since Carol can offer to exchange him back, it shows that Bane still cares about this little son." Worm said.

"Did you make that request? How did I not know? "Heavy punches feel a little strange.

"Your attention is all on the analysis of external intelligence, and you basically don't ask about internal matters." Worm gave him a blank look and said, "I've got to do the work of two people." ”

Heavy punch scratched his head, recently he did focus on the collection of external intelligence, neglecting these things, not that he didn't want to care, but felt that instead of wasting time thinking about those should concentrate on using external resources to find Carol's whereabouts, but the result was quite unsatisfactory, and these peripheral intelligence resources failed to help him find Carol.

"Where the hell is that bastard?" The ghost lay on the bed and let the doctor change his dressing and clean his wounds, the doctor sent by the ghost to take care of their bodies.

"Everybody knows he's in South Asia, but they don't know where he is." Worm said.

"I don't believe that intelligence agencies all over the world can't find him? It's also so abnormal. "The ghost can't figure it out.

"He has a way to evade tracking, coupled with the complex environment in the area, the inability to commit large-scale troops to conduct a carpet search, the number of agents who can go out is limited, and he has little contact with the outside world, so it is difficult to find intuitive clues to determine his whereabouts." Worm said, "What's more, the vast majority of external intelligence agencies are involved, only for intelligence collection, and do not participate in the search operation, so it is basically impossible to obtain from the outside, Carol hides for the purpose of not being discovered, unless necessary, he will not contact outsiders, in this case it is almost impossible to find him, in fact, we have found his traces several times during this time, but they are all a step late, in this case, it is quite good to be able to do this step." ”

"But as long as we don't achieve the goal, it is a failure, and we have only one goal, which is to rescue people, and if we can't find him, we can't achieve the goal at all." The ghost shook his head, "If you want me to see Natasha, they are more than lucky." ”

Carroll didn't make any new requests after changing the hamster when they didn't expect it, as if she had suddenly disappeared, and there was no movement.

On the contrary, the military doctors were confused, this hostage exchange was only halfway through, and there were several people in the hands of the other party, how could it be suddenly terminated? Although they were reluctant to continue the exchange, so far, there was no other way for him to get the rest of the people back than the exchange.

In fact, 03 was also eager to get the rest of the people back as soon as possible, but he didn't expect such a situation to happen, and the military doctor could only try to go to Carol in the end, but the guy seemed to have completely disappeared overnight and didn't respond.

"Could it be that something is wrong, or maybe he doesn't know what to do with the chips in his hand." The ghost couldn't figure it out again.

"Who knows? But I don't think he will be as confused as you say, and I am more worried that he has already killed all of them, so I don't ask for it. ”

"Can you say something auspicious?" Hearing him say this, the ghost couldn't help but frown.

"The reality is cruel and we can't be too idealistic." Heavy punch said.

"I don't think it's very likely, he left the most valuable person, obviously he wants to make full use of these chips, how can he easily kill them?" Worm said.

"What can't he do?" Heavy punches are completely hopeless, he just feels that this time things can't end because of this, and Carroll will definitely show up again.

"After this incident, the 'Clock Tower' finally took revenge on us in an all-round way, especially the unprecedented blow to the Central ~ CIA and even the upper echelons of the United States, resulting in a serious decline in public trust and at the same time, all walks of life began to criticize their foreign policy, in short, the pressure on the top level doubled."

"They deserve it, they have been arrogant for so many years, and someone finally cleaned them up." Worm said with some schadenfreude.

"Don't forget that we are also within the ambition range of the 'Clock Tower', but we are lucky this time, if it weren't for the injury and can't go, we would probably have been caught by Carroll now." "Now we're grasshoppers on a rope, and no one can run, so in a way we have to use their strength to break free." ”

"We don't have a direction now, all the investigative channels haven't been able to give us usable information, we can't find Carol at all, and we can't even talk about continuing to save people."

"Maybe the above are also bothered by this problem, if they can't solve it, then we're afraid we ...... too" Heavy Punch shook his head.

"Didn't the ghost find some clues? Why is there no news in the end? Is it impossible to investigate, or the clue is broken. The ghost asked.

"I can't check it anymore, the informant is missing, and it is estimated that he has been exposed." "The ghost suspects that Carroll's men did it, and he's trying to check the line, but so far to no avail." ”

"Carol is so able to hide, I don't believe he won't show up for the rest of his life." The ghost said.

In the following days, the investigation was still inconclusive, but what I didn't expect was that Carol, who had disappeared for a while on the fifth day, finally reappeared, and it was the military doctor who took the initiative to contact and asked to exchange the rest of the people for Remo Gallias, which was to everyone's surprise, he did not ask for the exchange of Lines, let alone the exchange of Burns Sirias.

"It seems that this is his real purpose, maybe this time will disappear, just to make us lose patience, leaving Natasha and a few other heavyweights to increase the possibility of exchange." The ghost said.

"Maybe they just went back and talked about what to do, or maybe Bane gave him orders." Worm doesn't think it's that complicated.

"This is indeed quite tempting, the military doctor may not have a choice, Remo Galli's greatest value is to fish out Bane, but now this purpose may not be achieved, if he can be exchanged for the remaining hostages, it is also a good deal." Heavy punch said.

"What is there to struggle with at this point? They have already achieved part of their purpose through the exchange before, and they are willing to exchange the rest of the people for one, and they can be regarded as taking advantage, I don't think it is possible for them to disagree. The ghost said.

"Carroll has done so many things, probably just to get this person back, as for Wade and the hamster, it's just a smoke bomb for him." Worm said.

"No one can guess what he's thinking, but now is not the time to think about it, it's none of our business how the above decides, whether they want it or not, we have to continue with the work at hand, even if everyone can come back, we have to find Carol, this bastard has caused us too much trouble, we can't let him be too proud." ”

By now, they have completely ignored the process and details of the hostage exchange, anyway, the overall situation must be clear, those people will always come back, and the final countdown is only a day, they know very well that they can't do anything during this period, so all the relevant work is handed over to others to do, and several of them began to continue to fight from other aspects. Clock Tower's investigation, they need to break through, they have wasted too much time lately, and they fully understand how difficult this organization is to deal with, one Carol will make them embarrassed, I really don't know what kind of enemies they will encounter in the future.

In fact, whether it is the German stock group, the Bain Group, or other industries under the 'Clock Tower', the main ones that have been exposed or verified have been confiscated by military doctors through various relationships and various ways, but although the 'Clock Tower' did not make any effective response, on the other hand, Carol's madness can be regarded as achieving the goal of revenge to a certain extent, I don't know what way they want to solve the trouble in front of them, is it really not that they really don't care, someone is raiding their industry? It's a bit hard to understand, but the Clock Tower doesn't do anything about it.

However, they also know that this aspect of the work is also difficult to do, if it is really so easy to find, it will not be delayed until today and still can't figure out the true face of this organization, they can only try from different angles from various channels, but, in this massive amount of information, it is quite difficult to sort out a clue, but apart from this, they have no other way.

In the early stage, the military doctors confiscated a large number of funds for the 'clock tower' industry all disappeared inexplicably, and later 03 also realized this problem, so they intervened in the follow-up investigation in time, and transferred a large number of funds to the public account, as the activity funds for all actions against the 'clock tower', you guarantee that they can have sufficient financial support, in fact, this is to avoid being monopolized by the military doctors, although they will not turn their faces because of the money.

Their injuries have not yet fully recovered, so in addition to these efforts, they have also carried out a series of horizontal investigations, and they have re-sorted through all the valuable information they have in recent times, hoping to uncover more valuable things from them.

"These things are about to be rotten by the military doctor, what do we mean by using them to prescribe?" The ghost didn't understand the job.

"Since there is no breakthrough, we can only start with these things to seek new breakthroughs." "In fact, we haven't paid attention to the horizontal connection of these subordinate industries, on the surface, they are all individuals who exist with each other, and even have no intersection, as a subordinate group within the organization, do they really have nothing to do with each other?" Is it limited to the exchanges between the upper echelons? And there is no business cooperation at the grassroots level? This is the strangest thing and the most important thing we should pay attention to. ”

"In order to avoid being discovered, this is normal, and none of our investigations into these groups have been horizontal breakthroughs, and they are all verified by some captured people, that is to say, there is really no real cooperation between these large business groups, they are completely independent individuals, and they are also tools for the 'clock tower' to collect money." Worm said.

"The other way is to go through some international surveys of investments in the Clock Tower, and the top leaders of these countries must know something that we don't know, although." The vast majority of the Clock Tower's investments are manipulated through its own groups, but there are still a few countries that have almost become their puppets, and the control of this kind of puppet will definitely not be used in other ways, at least it should be a hamster or controlled by a high-level like Bane behind the scenes, so that they can achieve their investment goals in these countries through these puppets, whether it is to control the economy, or to control the entire country, it must be decided by the people of the 'Clock Tower' themselves to make a meaningful decision. Heavy punch said.

"But the biggest problem is that we can't get information through the heads of these countries, even if the country is small, he is also the head of state, but I am not at our mercy, I am afraid we will not be able to get in touch." The ghost said.

"I'm afraid to take this road will always go through the upper route, and the upper route we can use now, I'm afraid there is only the line of military doctors, if he can get information from these small countries through political means, there will definitely be some gains, but it also has to take huge political risks, after all, this kind of thing has happened everywhere in the world, but as the number one power, there will also be a certain risk in doing this, and if someone catches the handle, it is also good to say." Heavy punch said.

"This is not a problem that we should take into account, our purpose is to find more clues, but there is no available channel at present, let alone a specific direction, only through these relationships to try, I believe they must have considered this problem, the reason why there is no result, maybe because of the scruples you said, or maybe because they don't intend to investigate from this angle at all." "So for whatever reason, we should give it a try, or rather, remind them properly." ”

"We formed a report on this matter and handed it over to 03 to do, and it is better for him to deal with the problems involved in the relationship between them and the high-level, and we can't work hard or help." The ghost shadow has also learned to be obedient and knows when to use what relationship, which they can't do themselves, so they can only hope for 03's strong activity ability, after all, this is a kind of use of the old American high-level.

Heavy Punch nodded, "Okay! Alpha, put together a fact sheet. ”

"Yes, the documentation has been generated, if you need a preview, please check it in the terminal." Alpha said.

"If you don't look at it, just send it." Heavy punches are still relatively recognized by Alpha's ability in word processing, especially this kind of written document, Alpha has never made a mistake, and basically does not need any changes, it can be sent directly.

"In addition, we may only be able to investigate these 'clock tower' personnel who can be identified through some old connections, and some of the missing people have inexplicably appeared to believe that countries will be interested, and using their intelligence agencies, we may be able to find out more." Worm said.

"Those that belong to our channels can be contacted directly, and the others can be handed over to Bruce, and I hope we will not be busy in vain after this round of screening." The ghost said.

Heavy punch nodded "Let's do it, when will there be a result, when will it be calculated, in short, in the current state, we can't do nothing, Carol has driven us to a dead end, we have to find a way out for ourselves, otherwise we will have to be played to death by him sooner or later." ”
