Chapter 102: Lies?
Pete didn't answer immediately, but thought for a moment and said, "It really looks like it's ready." As he spoke, he looked at Donovan and said, "I remember that we also arrested many people when we were in the service, some of these people were innocent, some were indeed people who committed crimes or were about to commit crimes, and some of them were targets that we wanted to catch for a long time." But no matter which one it is, during the initial interrogation, their answers will be reversed, and there will be many omissions in the middle, just like if you ask a question and he answers, many things are very vague, sometimes the logic is not particularly clear, and some are subjective and inconsistent with objective facts. The next time you ask, the answer is a little different, it's not that those people are deliberately lying, it's just that it was an emergency response at the time, and they said what came to mind in a hurry. And today this person is clearly not. Although I couldn't understand what he said, the tone and speed of his speech were fundamentally different from those captured armed men in my memory, and judging from the process of Zelda's translation, there was nothing unclear in the middle, otherwise Zelda would have interrupted and confirmed some of the words and phrases many times, just like we saw before, but no, the whole process was very smooth, this person can be said to be fluent, although he felt that he sometimes hesitated halfway, but it was not long, and the words he said were more like they had been organized a long time ago. ”
Donovan listened to Pete say this, recalling his time in the military. You know, he used to serve as a forcerecon, and he did the same kind of operations as Navy SEALs, and he also did more ordinary capture missions. Of course, the circumstances in which these people were interrogated were very familiar. So in retrospect, I do feel that, as Pitt said, the Iraqi man who squatted to answer Meghan's question was some... Some of the thoughts are too clear and too calm.
"You mean he's pretending?" Donovan asked.
Pete pursed his lips and said: "I don't know if I pretend or not, I just think that person is not simple, we, no, it should be said that the people of the intelligence bureau should not easily believe what he said." ”
Hearing Pete say this, Morris seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "I thought it was some shocking secret." Luckily, at best, it's just a bunch of lunatics trying to deceive the Intelligence Agency. ”
"Yes. As long as it has nothing to do with us. Maybe that guy has already made up his mind and wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune. Ochoa said, "You've seen this place, and it's definitely the best thing to get out of here with a sum of money." ”
Pete listened to Ochoa's words and shook his head slightly, "If that's the case, then why didn't the person named Marle Potuk say it?" As he spoke, he looked at Donovan, "Just to get beaten?" ”
Donovan looked at Pete and said, "You think they did this on purpose?" Deliberately monetized non-cooperation, and then forced to comply? Make conditions and then cheat the intelligence bureau out of money? Isn't that a bit too mysterious? ”
Pete sighed and said, "That's what I didn't understand. The man named Malle Potuk was a real hard guy. And the performance of his companion is not only too different from him, but it is not like he was frightened and had to give in. So I think this one is very contradictory. They seem to have some other purpose. ”
Donovan listened to Pete's analysis and thought about it, although it was indeed a little strange to recall it according to Pete, but for a while he couldn't think of what the problem was. So he sighed and said, "Since you can't figure it out, don't worry about it for now." Just do our thing. After saying that, he looked down at the time and said, "That old prison guard should be here in a moment." Before he comes, we have to know what we want to know. Everyone has seen it here just now, is there anything you want to say? ”
"It looks safe here." Matt first said: "This prison is in the middle of the barracks, surrounded by a circle full of Iraqi armed forces. On the way I saw our troops patrolling, and the city is not very big, so if we are attacked here, then we must have plenty of time to react and react. And most importantly, isn't it said that the Turk we are looking for is not here at all? Isn't the danger aforementioned no longer there? So what are we worried about? ”
Morris smiled and said, "That's a good point. I think the people here have thought of that, knowing that the prison is probably the target of the militants, so that's why they're on guard. Also, the entry and exit from the city here seems to be very strict, and I think it's unlikely that there will be any situation here. After all, how many people do you have to organize to have the courage to attack here, and what's the point of doing so? Unless there are some important people here, but isn't there none now? So I think there are real threats that we have to face, but not here, but on the road between Al Sabad and Mosul. ”
Donovan nodded, although he was not too satisfied with the overly optimistic and relaxed state of Morris and Matt, but he also had to admit that these two people did not talk nonsense, and not only did they not talk nonsense, but they also said quite reasonably. After all, it does seem to be quite safe here. So he looked at Ochoa and said, "Chili, what do you think?" ”
"Me? I think Morris is right. We have people here, guns, armored vehicles, and Mosul is not very far from here. I don't think the danger should come from here, but on the way back and forth. Ochoa said.
Donovan didn't bite and looked at the others and said, "What about you?" Do you all feel the same way? ”
Avery looked at Pete and didn't speak, while Jenimi, Bobcat, and William each nodded, with Jenemi saying, "I agree with them." Originally, I thought I would encounter a lot of difficulties. But it seems like we're going well. That's a good thing. ”
"Pete, what about you?" Donovan looked at Pete beside him.
Pete said, "It's pretty safe. But I still think it's time to be familiar with it. Since the old prison guard will be there in a moment just in time for him to take us around, there is nothing to do at this moment. ”
"If you want to go, you go. I'm not going. Morris looked tired and said, "I just want to find a place to stay, preferably a bottle of beer and a cigarette." Isn't it tiring to drive for so long and have such a broken road? My legs are still hard. ”
"I'm not going either." Matt said, "There's really no need for that. If someone does call, will we wait until they come in before leaving? Definitely left first. As for what they do after that, it has nothing to do with us. ”
