Chapter 052: Everything is ready
Tips:
After a few minutes, a man in his thirties walked down from the second floor, and after seeing Yang Fan and Anna, he came over and said, "Hello, two VIPs, I am Carter, the owner of this clinic, please come with me." ”
Carter took Yang Fan and Anna to the outside of the innermost office, which seemed to be an operating room on the opposite side.
Carter opened the office door, let the two into the office, and motioned for them to sit on the couch.
Carter walked to the window and closed the curtains, took out two yellow file bags from the drawer of his desk, handed them to Yang Fan and Anna, and whispered, "Robin, blue ghost, this is what you want." Earlier, the horns came, and he had already got his things and left first. ”
Yang Fan checked the document bag, which contained a black Glock17 pistol and a quick-draw holster of the same model, as well as two magazines, and Anna also signaled that there was no problem.
The two stood up, and Yang Fan stretched out his hand and said, "Thank you, Carter." ”
Carter shook Yang Fan's hand, smiled slightly, and said, "You're welcome, good luck to the two of you." ”
After saying goodbye to Carter, Yang Fan and the two drove to Mount Etna.
In fact, the location of the honey badger team is not in the scenic area of the volcano, but in the woods not far from a botanical garden, where there is an abandoned building, where the hostages are kept.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion, Yang Fan and Anna walked around the volcano scenic spot, and then drove to the target location.
Yang Fan parked the car near the botanical garden, brought a gun and binoculars, and walked with Anna to the target location.
The two stopped approximately 1 kilometer away from the target building, which was in a forest with a path leading to the outside of the forest.
Catania is a plain area, and Yang Fan and Anna are hiding in the woods, only roughly determining the location of the target building and the surrounding environment, but it is difficult to see the whole picture around the building.
Yang Fan found through the satellite map of his watch that the north side of the building was a large forest, and to the north was the extent of the volcano.
To the west of the building there is a small hotel nestled in the woods, and to the south there is a small village with about a dozen buildings.
The small village has direct access to Catalia airport, which is about a 1-hour drive away.
Yang Fan looked at the map and said, "If they want to evacuate, they can only go south through the woods, escape to this small village, and then take a car to Catalia Airport." ”
Anna nodded and said, "So, they should have hidden the car in this small village in advance. We might as well vandalize their cars ahead of time and try not to let them flee in their cars. ”
Yang Fan zoomed in on the map, pointed to one of the towns, and said, "Actually, even if they get in the car, they will be more than 20 kilometers away from the nearest Belpasso.
There are few inhabitants along the way, and we still have a chance to kill them. But I agree with you, we try to kill them before they break out of the woods, and if we can't do that, don't let them leave the village. ”
Anna nodded and said, "So be it." Let's go to that village today and destroy their means of transport if we can find them.
In the next few days we will go through all the routes from this village to the Catalia airport, predict their best retreat routes, and find out all the suitable places in the route for ambushes. ”
"Okay, let's go to that little village now."
Yang Fan and Anna drove to the small village on the map. There are very few people in this village, Anna and Yang Fan pretended to be self-driving tourists, accosted the locals, and without much effort, they found out about the four new Toyota LC70 SUVs in the village in recent days.
Anna contacted Parker, who found out that the cars came from a car rental agency in Catalia and had been rented by an Israeli named Tamir half a month earlier, for one month.
Although no personal information about Tamir has been found, it should be the Honey Badger team based on time.
Yang Fan and Anna easily found the vehicles and destroyed the ignition system of the cars.
They had already planned to start the action 2 days before the trade deadline, so they weren't worried about someone from the Honey Badger team coming in advance.
For the next four days, Yang Fan and Anna traveled back and forth between Catania and here every day. In order not to attract attention, they change the car every day with a different color and style.
They walked through all 12 routes and finally identified one of the most likely evacuation routes for the honey badgers. It took another day to carefully study all the suitable locations on this route for ambushes.
In fact, both Yang Fan and Anna knew that the chances of the Honey Badger team escaping here were very small. It's rare to have such ample time to prepare, and the two of them try to make the plan foolproof.
On the last day before the operation, Yang Fan and Anna had completed all the preparations.
The two had breakfast in the restaurant, and Yang Fan said to Anna: "Anna, there shouldn't be anything to do today, why don't we go to Catania for a while." The mission may start tomorrow, and today I want to relax. ”
Anna sat opposite Yang Fan, smiled slightly, and said, "Didn't you say that you don't like to visit those places of interest that you like during the mission?" ”
"yes. But I want to go for a break, people can't be in a state of tension all the time, you say? Yang Fan smiled.

Tips:
"Alright, let's go."
Yang Fan rented a Ferrari California sports car, and the two drove to Catania. They rented a boat, and Yang Fan drove the boat to the sea, far away from the city.
From the boat, they could see Mount Etna, and white smoke was rising from the top of the volcano, and the white smoke floated in the air and connected with the clouds, painting the blue sky with a touch of white, and dotting the whole sky.
Below the fire is the city of Catania, where the colourful buildings enclose Mount Etna and protect the city like a totem of the city.
Ships of all sizes on the sea seem to be attracted by the scenery in front of them, constantly shuttling to the edge of the city, reluctant to leave, occasionally honking their horns of different lengths and times.
The boat stopped at sea and rocked lazily, Yang Fan and Anna kept looking at the scenery in the distance, and neither of them spoke.
Yang Fan simply lay on the deck, looking at the remote-controlled sky, he felt that this was the real life.
Anna sat down next to Yang Fan and asked, "What are you thinking?" ”
"I'm homesick."
"Homesick?" Anna was surprised: "I heard you say that your home seems to be a coastal city, does the scenery here remind you of your hometown?" ”
"No, it's not a view." Yang Fan looked at Anna and said, "It's a feeling." That feeling of tranquility, peace. It doesn't matter where it is, it's a feeling of home. ”
He then asked, "Anna, do you feel homesick?" ”
Anna smiled faintly and said softly, "Yes." At Christmas, which is my birthday, I think about the old days. I haven't been home for Christmas with my brother and mother in many years.
I didn't want to go back because there were not only good memories there, but also things I didn't want to remember. ”
Yang Fan sat up, looked at Anna, and said, "Anna, when you go back to Ukraine this time, I will definitely help you find out what happened to your brother back then."
Also, I'll do my best to help you find that demon from back then and kill him! Then ......"
"And then what?" Anna looked at Yang Fan and found that he couldn't say anything, so she turned her head to look at the sky again and said, "Sometimes, I hope this doesn't end so quickly.
I didn't think about where I was going or what I was going to do when I was done. Thomas is right when he says that the most frightening thing in life is that there is no concern or expectation for the future.
So I never set a so-called plan for myself, and even if God spared me, I was afraid of the feeling of emptiness after achieving my goal. ”
She turned her head to look at Yang Fan and asked, "Yang Fan, have you thought about it?" Once you've done everything, what are you going to do? ”
Yang Fan smiled, turned his head to look in the direction of Catenia, and said, "Anna, I was the same as you before. But since I learned that my sister might still be alive, I changed.
The reason why we feel empty when we achieve our goals is because our goals are all related to hatred.
The drive for revenge can keep you strong to survive in the current situation, but it can't sustain you to live happily ever after.
Revenge may be the motivation that can keep you alive for a while, but it is definitely not a reason to keep you alive.
Now, I have other goals besides revenge. I hope to be able to find my sister and bring her back to Huaxia, and I want to take care of my adoptive mother so that they can live happily. ”
Yang Fan looked at Anna and continued: "And you, I hope to be with you-"
Yang Fan was just about to muster up the courage to truly "confess" to Anna, but at this time, the phone rang inappropriately.
Yang Fan took out the phone and saw that it was Daniel calling, and after answering the phone, Daniel said: "Yang Fan, the matter on our side has been settled, everything is going well." It is expected to be able to return to the hotel at noon, and the specific things will be discussed. ”
"Okay, I'll see you later." Yang Fan hung up the phone.
"Contact Evan and ask about Group B." Anna said.
Yang Fan nodded and dialed Evan's phone, the phone was just connected, and Evan said on the other side of the phone: "Yang Fan, I was about to call you." The miser promises to be able to get the gear of Group B done today! By 8 a.m. tomorrow, all members of Group B will be able to leave for Sicily. What's the situation going on your end? ”
"Everything is going well on my side, and I expect to start tomorrow at noon. If Kevin and they were able to arrive in the evening, the timing would be just right. Yang Fan said.
"Alright, let's keep in touch." Evan said.
Yang Fan hung up the phone and said with a depressed face: "This call is really not at the right time. ”
Anna approached Yang Fan, leaned her head on Yang Fan's shoulder, and said softly, "We still have half an hour, you don't have to say anything." We can't make any promises to each other right now, and it's not too late to think about it if we're all done and we're all alive. ”
Yang Fan always felt that Anna was too pessimistic about her future life, and he even felt that Anna did not avoid these because of those so-called rules, but because she wanted to escape these rules as an excuse.
Yang Fan didn't say anything. He knew Anna, who was an extremely calm and intelligent person. If there is fear in her heart, she can only get rid of it completely on her own.
