142. Bomb attack

On the other side of Mexico City, in the Bernanque district.

Apartments here rent at least $2,000 a month, and some out-of-towners buy homes here and sublet them to people who don't want to buy a home and can afford it. The area is sparsely populated and quiet, but there are patrolling police and SWAT officers on duty.

Apart from the high-rises, Bernanke's most luxurious residential complex is a tree-lined villa complex that is more heavily guarded than the apartment complex, with rich and wealthy people and bodyguards.

As a well-known wealthy man in Mexico, Ghana will naturally have a residence here. It's just that his villa is located on the small slope on the side of the villa area, covering an area of 3 acres of manor planted with evergreen plants in all seasons, the three-story villa is a white Gothic architectural style, two baroque white columns at the entrance of the first floor, along the steps of the path, is the fountain with the sculpture of the Statue of Liberty, and there are several water pipes on the lawn that are spraying water mist into the air, rippling with colorful light in the sun.

When his daughter Tina was almost kidnapped, Garner was coming up in the pool in the backyard, his bare and hairy chest, and Diger, who was still wearing a suit even on a hot afternoon, silently handed over the bath towel, knowing that it was about to be time for his boss to watch the news - whenever he was free, every day at this time, Ghana would turn on the TV in his study on the third floor and watch the international news alone.

A bodyguard handed Garner a folded linen suit, and Garner stripped naked in front of his men, put on his clothes, and walked up the stairs to the third floor. A bodyguard pushed the study door open in front of him, closing it again when Garner walked in.

Picking up the remote control on the desk, Garner was about to turn on the TV, but Tina's chubby gray British shorthair cat "Nana" suddenly jumped out of the corner, "Meow" screamed and shook her fat body to walk in front of Garner and paused, raised her amber eyes and tilted her head meekly to look at Garner, and then shook her ass and walked towards the balcony.

With a smile on his swarthy face, Garner put the remote control in his pocket, picked up his phone on the small table next to the recliner, and whispered the cat's name as he walked to the balcony.

"Nana, Nana......."

The kitten looked back and suddenly jumped on the balcony railing, and the fat body shook a few times on the narrow railing. Garner hurriedly rushed over and hugged him, and scolded softly with a doting face, "You want to fall to your death?" What if you die? Tina is going to die of grief....... ”

Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise they would all be frightened by this gentle and amiable Ghana, because those who "know" Ghana well know that this entrepreneur is actually a thief who kills people without blinking.

With a kitten in his arms, Garner dialed a string of numbers on his phone and brought it close to his ear. The phone rang only once, and a gentle female voice rang.

"Siegel Corporation."

"Are there any vacancies at the dock lately?" Garner's hand gently stroked the kitten and looked down at the pool downstairs.

"Wait a minute." The woman replied.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and a soft male voice rang out, with a thick American accent in it, "Hi, Carlos." ”

"My daughter, send a few more people to follow her, she was exposed in this attack, and I am afraid that someone with a heart will find her." Garner stopped petting, and the kitten writhed restlessly in his arms, suddenly broke out of his arms, jumped off the ground, and looked up again at the birds that flew by in the sky.

"Don't worry, is there anything else?" The man responded gently.

Garner stopped talking, but hung up the phone in silence. He looked at the cute kitten squatting on the ground, smiled and took out the TV remote control from his pocket, and pressed the switch on the large-screen TV facing the balcony.

"Boom......."

The ground seemed to be shaking, and the violent explosion lifted the dome on the study in an instant, splashing glass and rubble, and a huge wave of air knocked Garner off the balcony, drawing an arc in the air, and falling into the pool downstairs with his hands dancing, and a line of blood quickly emerged from the clear pool.

The moment the well-trained bodyguards fell into the water in Garner, someone immediately jumped into the water to hug Garner, whose upper body was covered with glass shards, and the others quickly dispersed to set up a cordon, and someone at the gate drove Ghana's bulletproof Bentley over, and Diggle also pulled out his pistol with his backhand and rushed up towards the messy second floor. He quickly turned around and rushed downstairs - the bodyguard Durant who was in charge of the third floor was gone.

The bodyguard Kun Liedong, who jumped into the water, rushed out of the living room with a wet Garner in his arms, and Diggle did not stop or follow, but looked for Durant's figure among the vigilant bodyguards. He saw that Durant was forming an encirclement with the other bodyguards, protecting Garner in the middle and rushing outside.

"Durant." Diggle shouted.

The tall Durant grabbed one of his bodyguards as cover with his backhand and raised his hand to shoot Teagar, who dodged to the side and shouted, "Don't kill him." ”

However, several bodyguards have followed Ghana for many years, and they have long been suffocated by this assassination. As soon as they saw Durant's actions, they understood what was going on, and quickly separated Garner from the bodyguard who was holding him from Durant. By the time Diggle shouted "Don't kill him", the guns in the hands of the bodyguards had already sounded, killing the bodyguard who was held hostage by Durant.

The muscles on Diggle's thin face twitched, and he wanted to raise his gun and kill these angry guys. But after Durant died, the group of bodyguards once again surrounded Garner's car and rushed to the gate, with two personal bodyguards and Diggle in Bentley, and the others in the other two Cherokee, frantically drove out of the villa and rushed to the Christian hospital in Bernanke.

Stunned by the blast, Garner woke up in the speeding car, and Diggle was carefully pulling out the glass shards from Ghana's body, and he chose the pieces of glass that were inserted in his arms and shoulders, one of which was the thickness of a thumb in Garner's neck, only 0.5 centimeters from the main artery. Seeing Garner wake up, Diggle quickly whispered to Garner not to move, lest the glass move and hurt the artery.

"Call Tina." Garner's voice was faint, and blood was oozing outwards all over his body.

"I called, but the phone was still turned off." Diggle nodded bitterly and pointed to Kun Liedong in the front seat. Of course, he understands that if the boss is attacked at home, then Tina who is wandering outside must be in danger.

With a silent sigh, Garner closed his eyes and asked again, "What about Durant?" Did you catch it? ”

"Resisted, died." Kun Liedong in front put down the phone, turned his head to look at the boss lying on Diger's lap, frowned, and then motioned for the driver to drive faster.

In this car, only he and Tigger know Ghana's true identity, and they also know how many burdens this man is carrying on his shoulders, how many things are pressed in his heart, and how many inexplicable responsibilities he bears in this man who is now covered in blood. Kun Liedong is very young, only 29 years old, and has been with Ghana for 7 years, but he feels as if he has lived two lifetimes.

"I'll have people go to the people around Durant, find all the living things he's been in contact with lately, and I'm sure they'll be able to ask for something." As if knowing what Garner was thinking, Diggle whispered, his thin face clenched and his face turned pale.

Garner didn't reply, sometimes it is necessary to be ruthless, especially how to save his own life and the lives of those around him under the premise of being embattled. He remembered the day when his beloved wife collapsed in a pool of blood when his daughter was less than two years old, and the muscles in his face jumped involuntarily.

The phone in Kun Liedong's hand rang suddenly. He looked at the number, then looked back at Garner, and pressed the call button.

"Tina."

Garner's closed eyes opened, and he wanted to get up to answer the phone, but he probably knew that his weak voice was easy for Tina to hear, so he shook his head and motioned for Kun Liedong to continue.

"Are you okay? Now at the police station? Kun Liedong suddenly sat up straight.

Garner and Diggle in the back seat also tensed up, and Diggle reached out and took the phone from Kun Liedong's hand.

"Tina, are you alright?"

“……”

"It's okay, don't move there, I'll arrange for someone to pick you up."

Diggle hung up the phone and looked at Garner, "She was attacked, and it was said that there were police officers nearby. Now the statement is recorded at the police station. ”

"Arrange someone, pick her up, send her to ......, send it to Barranca Manor, watch it 24 hours a day." Garner waved his hand, he originally wanted to send it to him, but it was more dangerous to be around him, so it was better to go to a place that no one knew. Barranca Manor is one of his most secret safe houses, and only the descendants around him know about it, so it should be safe.

What's more, if they can't even protect their daughter, and they have spent decades laying it out, how can the final outcome be like this?

"You go in first, in the hallway, on the roof, in the parking lot. Be careful, even the police don't let them in. Kun Liedong in front was talking through the headset, they had already arrived at the hospital, and the driver drove the car straight into the gate. The doctors and nurses had already arranged for the surgical cart to wait at the door, and when Kun Liedong and Diggle helped Garner out of the car, they rushed to the operating room.

Diger, who was standing at the door, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, dialed a series of numbers, and watched Kun Liedong and another bodyguard follow him into the hospital gate, he stepped aside and pressed the call button.

……

In the Special Police Center of the Mexico City Police Department, Tina sat on a wooden chair in the inquiry room, her heart was hot and cold, but the expression on her face maintained a gentle smile, answering the questions of the policewoman who asked the question. The policewoman knew Tina's background, and she had a businesslike look on her cold face, but when Tina was on the phone, the policewoman still waited patiently until Tina hung up the phone, and at this time Sanchez also walked in, and he was also questioned by the SWAT team before leaving.

Motioning for the policewoman to leave, Sanchez sat across from Tina and stared at her with a smile for a few seconds before asking, "Are you scared?" ”

"Of course." Tina nodded.

Yes, it was scary.

The closest I got to death in my life was in Colombia, and I thought that when I returned home, I would be as safe as before. didn't expect that the gentle and amiable father turned out to be someone else's assassination target. And then today is the third time. Will there be a fourth? Does that person appear when he is in danger?

Tina unconsciously fell into a trance, her mind leaping so wildly that she didn't even hear Sanchez's question clearly.

"Tina......."

"Huh? What did you say? Somewhat embarrassed, she stroked her hair with her hand, and Tina looked at Sanchez apologetically.

"I said, the killer who appeared this time is very professional, and I suggest you accept our offer to protect it."

Shaking her head indifferently, a smile bloomed on Tina's face, "Professionalism is in line with my identity, after all, it is too shameless for an unprofessional killer to kill me." ”

Sanchez pressed his hands on the table and looked down at his fingers, as if flowers had grown on his fingers, "Tina, on our way back to the police station, your father was attacked and the villa exploded. But don't worry, the person is okay and has now gone to the hospital. ”

Tina jerked her chair away and stood up.
