Everyone quickly passed through security and made their way to the courtyard, where Pete took one last look and boarded a minibus parked there. The car quickly drove away, but this time not the same way it came from Kolb. It's a different way. It's going in a southeasterly direction. This road is much more complicated than the one that Kolb came from, not only long and bumpy but also more tortuous, that is, there are many curves. After about half an hour's drive, we took a major road and continued south, arriving at Constanta, the largest port city in Romania, at about noon and boarding a plane at the airport.

After nearly a day of tossing, in the second half of the night, 009 returned to the United States. And landed in Houston, Texas.

"Let's take a break, everybody." Diego got off the plane and said, "We're going to have a connecting flight to Phoenix in an hour." ”

Hearing Diego say this, Morris and Matt looked disappointed and said, "I'm going to have a drink if I'm leaving so soon." ”

"Don't think about it with a drink. Find a phone number to get in touch with your family. Of course, if you're afraid of disturbing your family, it's fine. But I don't guarantee that you'll get in touch with each other later. Donovan said.

After arriving at the departure hall, only a few people went to make a call. Because Morris and Matt were both bachelors, so were the two new white men. So only some people found a pay phone and contacted their home.

Pete was tempted to get in touch, but he didn't go right away. Because what he had to say was complicated, and he could not be explained in a moment, and in the middle of the night in such an environment, he had to use the simplest sentences, otherwise it would be easy to make people feel strange, and he was going to follow Donovan and call them on the phone. After all, if there is really a rescue in the future, then once there is a problem in the prison, it is difficult to say that the investigation will not involve itself, so everything is careful not to let people have something to doubt. Being with Donovan is a proof that he wasn't hiding when he was currently the only contact with the outside world. Although this is a bit of a thief, it is very necessary in Pete's opinion at this moment, after all, as a bachelor, he has no need to contact others in the middle of the night, but what happened in prison made him have to contact him as soon as possible.

"Who are you going to call?" Donovan asked.

Pete sighed and said, "I originally promised to spend Christmas with someone else. According to my judgment, most of us will not go to Iraq, and we will probably go home. But at the moment, it seems that there is no hope. So I want to say it as soon as possible, although it's not good to talk about such a disappointment at this time. However, after that, I was worried that I would not have time to contact. ”

"The dentist?" Donovan asked.

"Yes. Who else could it be but him. Pete said with a look of loss.

Seeing Pete say this, Donovan didn't say anything more but said, "Go ahead, it's not too late." Hopefully, a doctor doesn't have the habit of going to bed early. ”

Pete smiled and came to Donovan's next door, picked up the receiver and expertly pressed Victor Feng's phone number after paying.

I don't know if Victor Feng fell asleep or was a little confused about the strange number that came in the middle of the night, but anyway, it took a while for the phone to be connected, and when his voice came, Pete, who was very familiar with Victor Feng, could obviously feel the vigilance.

"It's me, Pete." Pete immediately said, "I'm in Houston right now. I'm going to Phoenix soon. ”

When he heard Pete's voice and confirmed that it was him, Victor Feng became nervous, after all, Pete couldn't have drunk too much in the middle of the night to let himself pick him up, let alone let him help do something, all he could have was that there was an emergency, and it was an emergency.

"What's wrong?" Victor Von asked.

Pete immediately said, "Listen to me." Listen carefully. Pete turned to Chinese and quickly said after looking around: "I found a person who spoke Chinese in a secret prison in Romania. I repeat, I found a Chinese speaker in a secret prison in Romania. ”

Victor Feng didn't know what was going on for a while, so he could only repeat mechanically after remembering what he said: "Okay." You found a Chinese speaker in a Romanian prison. I remembered. ”

"Good. I think you know how to do it. That's it. Pete said and glanced at Donovan, and when he saw that Donovan was still on the phone, he added, "I mean confirm the identity and see if there is anyone who has lost contact or suddenly disappeared recently." If necessary, if you want to act. I have a plan. ”

"Okay. Got it. After writing it down, Victor Von added, "Is there anything else?" ”

"As soon as possible. I don't know how long this man will last. The other person in charge of this person was the guy I and Parker had met on the west side earlier. Pete said.

"You and Parker? What do you mean? Victor Von didn't understand what Pete meant for a moment.

"Ask Parker. He'll understand. Pete said that when he saw Donovan hang up the phone and walk out, he immediately said in English, "I can't go back for Christmas." I'll find a way to send my gifts. Yes. I can't say exactly where I am now, but I'll contact you when I get back. Bring the words for me and say hello to them. ”

When Victor Von heard him say this, he immediately knew that it was no longer convenient to speak at this moment. So he cooperated: "Okay, no problem." I'll explain it to them for you. Take care, I'll bring your words as soon as possible. That's it. With that, he hung up the phone.

"Who's calling?" Victor Feng's wife, Helen, asked when she saw him hang up.

Victor Feng turned to look at his wife and said, "Pete." I guess I'm going to do something mysterious. Tell me that Christmas may not come back either, and that we can't spend Christmas together, but that he can't miss a gift, and that he has to keep it until he comes back to give it to him. ”

Hearing her husband say this, Helen smiled and said, "Is this Pete?" Usually he doesn't look like a joker. ”

"I guess I'm in a good mood and drank some bars." Victor Feng said and looked at Helen and said, "I'm going to look for a book, and I'll be here in a moment." ”

Helen nodded his head and went to bed. Victor Feng walked quickly to the study, opened the drawer and took out a special mobile phone, quickly sent a message after turning it on, and then closed the drawer again, picked up a book casually and left the study and walked to the bedroom.
