Chapter 10: Eyeliner (Part I)
Upon returning to the courtyard, the woman checked on the two of them. After looking at the injuries of the guy Pete caught, he looked at Donovan and said, "This one needs to be treated." At least give him a stop to blood. He's still useful, and it's best to keep him awake before using him up, and he can't die. ”
Donovan sighed and beckoned to Ochoa and Ellie, "Deal with him." After speaking, he looked at the woman and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Do you want to find him another doctor?" ”
"I'll arrange it if necessary." The woman said as she walked to the door of the house, "Bring that guy in." When I entered the house, I had something to ask him. ”
Pete and Jeff carried the guy into the house. The lights were already on in the room at the moment. However, he didn't see Bell Bray, nor did the rest of his entourage, and they probably didn't come out of the basement. The woman came to the table in the living room and motioned to Pete, "Let him sit in a chair." ”
Pete and Jeff pressed the injured guy to the chair. The woman immediately asked in Spanish. The man looked up at the people around him and replied. The woman asked the man a few more questions, and soon Pete caught the guy starting to be less cooperative, and began to keep his head down and stop talking.
Pete wondered what the woman was asking him. It's just a pity that he doesn't understand Spanish. So he looked at Jeff beside him and whispered, "Is this an interrogation?" ”
Jeff looked at the woman and also whispered, "Sort of." I don't know what I'm asking. After saying that, Jeff slowly came to Ochoa's side and whispered, "Hey." What are they talking about. ”
Ochoa sneered and translated, "This man's name is Dardardo. A native of Juarez. As he spoke, he looked at the mysterious woman and whispered, "She asked him who sent them." There is no one here to give them the news, to act as an eyeliner. ”
"Eyeliner? Who? Jeff asked, immediately looking surprised.
"I don't know." Ochoa glared at the fussing Jeff, "This man hasn't said yet. ”
The woman said, holding up the phone that Pete had scoured from the man, shaking it in front of the man, and saying a few more words. Pete noticed that the guy was looking a little nervous after seeing his phone. And the woman also noticed this, only to see that she smiled and opened her phone to look at it again, and after looking at it, she began to report one name after another. After about five or six names, the woman pointed to the wound called Dardardo, and said a few more words.
She said the eyeliner was on the phone. If he doesn't say it, he will find it himself. It just takes some time. But if that happens, she'll let the guy bleed dry. And then after finding that inner ghost, she will also release a message that the credit will be attributed to this guy. Let's just say that this guy betrayed him. She said that by then, perhaps Dardardo would be able to reunite with his relatives soon in another world. Ochoa translated.
Pete heard Ochoa's translation and looked at the woman. Although such a threat feels a little shameless, I have to admit that it is very effective. It reminded him of what the guy who trained him had said during a torture training when he was training in that faraway place: "A man may not be afraid of death, but he is afraid of torture, and a man may not be afraid of torture, but he is absolutely afraid of seeing his relatives tortured." So when you want to get what you want from someone's mouth quickly and efficiently, try to figure out how to do it. Unless your target is a real loner. And the guy in front of him began to shake after hearing the woman's words, and his head, which had been kept low, slowly raised it, and after looking at the woman with hatred, he was very reluctant to say a name and then said a few words.
"Conalo." Ochoa said, "This man is right next to us, following us all the time. But he didn't know exactly who. ”
The woman seemed to be satisfied, and immediately turned to Ochoa and said, "Don't be a translator here." Treat him with hands-on help. He must be saved. After speaking, he said to Pete and Jeff, "You two come with me." We have something to do right away. ”
Pete and Jeff immediately followed, and after leaving the room, the woman immediately walked up to Donovan, who was smoking, handed the man's phone to Donovan and said, "I'm going to arrest someone right away." It's this guy named Conalo on the phone."
"Arrest?" Donovan asked puzzled, and at the same time glanced at the name on the phone, "This person has been ventilating the news?" Where is he? ”
"It should be a police officer. It's one of the ten cops. The woman said, glancing out the door, "Are the policemen coming?" Started collecting corpses? ”
"They're coming. That's a lot of movement. But I don't know if I did it or not. Donovan said as he took another puff on his cigarette and handed the phone back to the other party, "Are you sure it's the police?" And the man's words are credible? ”
"Who else is there for us all the time, but the police?" The woman said and shook the phone, "Kounaro's name." If the time is aligned, we will have a call at each location. The last time was just before the end of the feast. It can't be someone on your team, right? ”
Donovan nodded and said, "Then what do you want us to do now?" Arresting a Mexican police officer in Mexico? Even if it really is? I guess this guy can't be stupid enough to really be the name, right? Also, we can't have conflicts with the local government and law enforcement officials, that would be very troublesome. ”
"Of course not by that name. But I'm going to catch this guy. The woman said as if for a moment, and after a moment she added, "I'll go find Bear Bray a favor." Let him talk to their governor. I think we'll be able to find and control this eyeliner without causing any misunderstanding. ”
"So what are we going to do now?" Donovan asked.
"Help me keep an eye on the cops. Don't let them into the courtyard. I think it will only take a moment to get results. With that, he turned and went back into the house.
Donovan looked at the others and said, "Okay. Looks like tonight isn't over yet. With that, he threw away the cigarette butt, pointed to the guy who had been captured by Morris and Matt, and said to Evans, "The old man stayed in the yard and watched this guy." The others come with me. ”
Pete followed everyone to the gate. At this moment, there are already a lot of onlookers outside the courtyard. The ten policemen were inspecting the bodies one by one and confiscating all the guns and ammunition. A moment later, two of the ten policemen walked towards the area, one of them, who was probably in his forties, looked at Donovan and said in accented English after walking up to him, "My name is Juan Marquis, and we knew each other before. It's a shame that we weren't there when all this happened. ”
"That's nothing, don't care." Donovan replied with a blank face.
