Chapter Ninety-Six: Joining the Backbone and Entering the Battlefield with Orders!

On December 26, 1975, at 11 a.m. EST, our flight landed at New York International Airport in New York City, more than four hours after our flight was in the air.

When we looked out the window, it was already freezing and snowy, and it felt like New York should be colder than San Francisco.

Since, we wore winter clothes that were distributed to us at school, so we put them on before getting off the plane.

After that, we got off the plane with our luggage.

After we got out of the airport, we were picked up by a special CIA vehicle!

Soon after, the vehicle dropped the four of us to a CIA's purpose-built speedboat dock.

The pier is heavily guarded and has a helicopter apron and a speedboat pier.

A guard led the four of us to the speedboat waiting area.

After we were checked and checked by the inspectors at the boat waiting area, they let us board the speedboat docked at the dock berth.

We had just sat down on the speedboat and the speedboat drove away!

We knew they were going to take us to the CIA's island base in this bay.

This base is a secret base, fully enclosed management, very heavily guarded, except for CIA personnel, other personnel are not allowed to enter and approach!

After disembarking at the island pier, a vehicle took the four of us to the courtyard of an office complex here.

After we got off the bus, the staff here took us here to go through the onboarding procedures, accept re-registration and background checks, etc.!

I feel that the management of the CIA is too strict and cumbersome, they see everyone as a criminal suspect who deliberately conceals the truth, they don't trust anyone, including their own people!

Here, we underwent re-verification, medical examinations, photographs, electronic fingerprinting, blood samples for blood typing and DNA testing, etc.

After completing the entry procedures and medical examination, we were taken to four different interrogation rooms.

There, the interrogators put on the helmets of the bioelectric wave induction testers.

They interrogated and tested us for more than an hour about our personal identity, social orientation, religious beliefs, hobbies, and psychological characteristics.

After passing the audit, we received a CIA trainee work permit, but our student ID card at Stamford Polytechnic School was withdrawn by them.

Of course, we also received a new duffel bag, two sets of underwear, two sets of civilian clothes, two sets of military uniforms, as well as basic daily necessities and meal cards.

Then, they assigned us a dormitory, and the four of us were put into a dormitory!

The living conditions here are similar to those of the school's dormitories.

Since we had lunch on the plane, we had coffee and chatting in the living room of the dormitory.

Xiaoda smiled and said, "Alas! It's like going to jail here! It's too tiring to study and train in school, so it's good to spend some time here! Let's play cards and have fun! ”

Xiaoming said: "Alas! Xiaoda! You're so naΓ―ve! They spent so much money and energy on us, they will leave us idle?! Look, go on, they're going to let us go out and help them with their lives! ”

Wen Tao said: "That's right! Look at what we learned at their secret service school, isn't that a weapon of mass destruction?! The CIA is vicious and violent! In the future, we can't take it lightly! ”

We were chatting when one of the guards called the four of us away.

The guards took us to an office.

In the office, we met General Jefferson, who was sitting alone behind a large desk, and after the guards had taken us, he closed the door and left.

Jefferson was working on some paperwork and he asked us to sit on the couch and wait for him.

We started to sweat because the room was too well heated, so we took off our coat and sat down on the sofa and drank coffee.

Soon Jefferson got up and came over to talk to us.

Jefferson smiled and said, "Oh! The children! Are you all right?! ”

I said, "Your Excellency! We were very nice! Wishing you a happy Christmas! ”

Jefferson said, "Great! You are the best of my pick! I'm thinking about your future work! Now, we in the CIA have two very troublesome places, one in Europe and the other in South America, both of which are related to the fate of the entire free society! So I'd like to separate the four of you, one to stay in New York and one to go to London for work! To be fair, let's make a fun game! Now, I have four cards in my hand and only Aces and Kings in them! Those who draw an A will go to London immediately, and those who draw a K will stay in New York! Jack, Tom! Let's draw the cards first! ”

So, Jefferson spread the four cards in his hand on the coffee table, and Xiaoda and I both drew the old K!

Jefferson immediately held down the remaining two cards!

Jefferson smiled and said, "That's it! Locke, Vinson! You're in luck! Prepare for your trip, you're going to the airport and report to the CIA workstation in London! ”

So, Xiaoming and Wen Tao got up, saluted Jefferson, and hugged Xiaoda and me to say goodbye!

Jefferson called the guards and took Xiaoming and Wen Tao back to the dormitory to make preparations.

After they left, Jefferson turned over the remaining two cards to show me and Da, and they were all old kings!

Jefferson smiled and said, "Jack, Tom! That's fairness! The fair rules are up to us! You should understand that! ”

Then, he threw all four cards in the garbage basket and went to his desk to call someone.

Soon Chris came in, and Jefferson asked Chris to sit down with us, and Jefferson sat down as well.

Jefferson said, "Jack, Tom! Now Chris is the leader of your action team! In the future, you will obey his arrangement! Tom, you go back to the dorm and wait, we're going to talk to Jack alone! ”

After Xiaoda got up and saluted, he took his coat, walked out of the office, and went back to the dormitory by himself.

After Xiaoda left, General Jefferson said, "Chris, Jack! At the moment, you two are the people I trust the most. After we returned from the Vietnam War, many bureaucrats in the headquarters did not like us! Therefore, we have to come up with a couple of amazing results to show these parasites! I'm in my fifties this year, and I'm going to get you up as soon as possible so that you can continue to fight for the free world! Therefore, my first task for you is to eradicate the sworn enemy of the free world, the Mexican Renaissance Alliance! ”

After taking a sip of coffee, Jefferson said: "This revival coalition is an international terrorist organization, and their organizational network has infiltrated the entire free world, so we have cooperation and division of labor with the FBI in this operation!" We are responsible for overseas raids, and the FBI is responsible for domestic detection and large-scale raids. I have already completed the intelligence collection and pre-planning of this operation by myself! With the help of the informant, we have just plotted against a local leader of the Renaissance Coalition in New York, a man named Garsiat. According to Garsiat's intelligence, in Mexico City in recent days, the Renaissance Alliance is going to hold a secret congress! Garsiat is also going to participate. Your mission is to follow Garsiate to Mexico City and join us in this meeting! And collect meeting materials at the venue, and record and video the whole meeting! Then, find a way to blow up the entire venue and wipe out everyone who attended the meeting! Do you understand? ”

Chris-in-one and I said in unison, "General! Got it! ”

General Jefferson said, "All right! Get ready for action! ”

After we stood up and saluted the general and shook hands, Chris led me out of Jefferson's office.

Chris asked me to go back to the dorm, call Xiaoda, bring our casual clothes and duffel bags, etc., and then go to his office to find him.

So, I immediately went back to my dorm!

When I returned to the dormitory, I couldn't see Xiaoming and Du Wentao anymore.

Xiaoda said: "Alas! When I returned here, Du Wentao and Zhou Xiaoming were already gone! ”

I said, "Alas! We're going too! Prepare two sets of spring and autumn clothes and duffel bags, and Chris will arrange for us to go to Mexico for field business in no time! ”

So, we changed into casual clothes, carried CIA work cards, guns, ammunition, watches, etc., and put two sets of spring and autumn clothes and simple daily necessities into our luggage bags.

Then, we went to Chris's office with our duffel bags.

When we got to Chris's office, he and we went to a large secret service tool storage room.

There, Chris gave me and Da access to the following equipment:

1. Large-capacity miniature phonograph pen and 2 sets of memory, which is a phonograph that can record continuously for up to eight hours.

2. A miniature digital pinhole recorder and 2 sets of video memory.

3. 2 sets of miniature digital cameras.

4. Military laptop computer and satellite communication device 1 set, this set of equipment has satellite network calls, transmission of documents, voice and image and other communication functions, but also has satellite positioning, audio and video recording functions, and supporting special power supply and high-energy batteries, etc., this set of equipment in a portable suitcase, although relatively heavy, but, the most advanced communication tools at that time!

Chris also equipped me and Xiaoda with silencing weapons and portable equipment such as ammunition, high bullets, knives, etc.

In this way, we get a computer communication suitcase, a special agent tool suitcase.

We returned to Chris's office with two suitcases and luggage.

When we got to the office, Chris handed us each a local passport.

The passport bears our English name and photo, and we identify as Mexican immigrants in New York.

Chris said, "That's it! This is your new identity for this mission! You're Garsiat's cousin-nephew, a native of New York! Garsiat is a half-breed Indian man in his fifties, and he has the same black hair and black eyes as you! No one will doubt your relationship! All you need to do is adjust your English accent to New York tones! Now, you're going to a hotel in the city! Tonight at 12 o'clock, Garsiat is coming to you! Then, you go with him to Mexico City! I'm waiting for you in Mexico, with the rest of the operatives, in the hotel where you're going to stay! Do you have any other questions? ”

Xiao Da and I said in unison, "No! ”

Chris showed me and Da a picture of Garsiat!

After we saw it, Chris shredded that picture on a paper shredder.

In the end, Chris handed me $200,000 in cash, which I put in my duffel bag.

After we rested for a while, Chris shook my hand and said, "Jack! Let's go! Good luck with your journey! ”

So, Chris called a guard!

Xiaoda and I left with the guards with computer cases, toolboxes, and luggage!

The guards took us to the helicopter where we took a helicopter to book a hotel.
