Chapter 18: Ill-fated
If the embassy district is heaven, then the North City district across the wall is hell. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Of course, it's a haven for mercenaries, arms dealers, illegal diamond dealers, and human snakes, as well as intelligence brokers who make a living selling information.
Serena's informant is actually an intelligence broker.
When the skinny middle-aged black man came in, Serena glanced at Wang Dong, who was sitting in the corner and reading the newspaper.
The meeting point was a big restaurant, it was early evening and there were a lot of diners.
For the sake of safety, Wang Dong was not with Serena, and he didn't want to expose his existence, and in this kind of place where dragons and snakes are mixed, it is better to keep a low profile.
It's been a long time, and who can guarantee that guy didn't betray Serena?
When the thin monkey sat down across from Serena, Wang Dong put his hand under the table and held the USP pistol that had been equipped with a muffler.
"Kenny, you're late."
The sound came from the headphones, Serena brought a mobile phone and it was turned on, and Wang Dong was wearing a Bluetooth headset.
"Serena, what you want is high-end goods, so naturally it will take a little more time."
"Did you bring it?"
The skinny monkey named Kenny placed an envelope on the table and pressed his hand down.
Without further ado, Serena took out an envelope, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Kenny.
It contained a hundred hundred-dollar bills, which came from Kidman, Morty to be precise, the same cash that the mercenaries found in the estate.
At that time, Kidman was ready to evacuate, and valuables had been loaded onto the helicopter, including hundreds of thousands of cash.
After a rough count, Kenny pushed the envelope in front of him to Serena.
Inside are two very realistic fake passports, both with fake names and no photos.
In addition, there are two tickets purchased under a pseudonym.
Serena only opened it for a moment, then put away the envelope.
"Perhaps, this is the last deal I will make with you."
Serena was slightly stunned and looked over at Kenny.
Wang Dong also immediately raised his vigilance and opened the safety of the pistol.
"I'll provide you with a piece of information for free."
"What?"
"Someone is offering a reward of 10 million dollars for your head."
Serena's brow jumped a few times.
"If I were you, I wouldn't be going back to Europe. Now you're a magnet, and the world's best professional killers are coming for you. Kenny stood up. Of course, you won't listen to my advice. Either way, we'll never see each other again. ”
"Who wants my head?"
As if he hadn't heard, Kenny turned and left the restaurant.
"Kenny!"
Serena immediately got up and chased after her, but after rushing out of the restaurant, she was dragged by Wang Dong, who followed her.
Kenny is the local snake here, disappearing from the restaurant and drawing attention to Serena's panicked demeanor.
What about catching up with Kenny?
He made it clear that he would never see Serena again.
The key to helping Serena this time is to be able to buy ten fake passports for $10,000.
After a while, the two of them slipped into the crowd.
When he came to a secluded alley, Wang Dong stopped.
"I'll accompany you back to France." Wang Dong's tone was very calm, he was comforting Serena and calming Serena's emotions.
It's hard to be calm at this time for anyone.
"Who would ask for my head for 10 million dollars?"
Wang Dong didn't say anything, because who it was, Serena must have guessed.
"I must go back."
"We have airline tickets and passports, but we have to prepare."
"Thank you, King."
"What else can I tell me?"
Serena smiled embarrassedly, Wang Dong didn't care about her, and she behaved so politely everywhere, but she looked rusty.
Six hours later, the last international flight of the day took off from Monrovia International Airport.
The flight will be to Rabat, Morocco.
Wang Dong and Serena were the last two passengers to board the plane, and their seats were in the last row of economy class.
Because there was a wound on the top of his head, Wang Dong wore a wig.
Serena dyed her hair dark brown and cut it much shorter.
The appearance of the two has changed a lot, but it is not much different from the photo on the passport.
The two did not bring contraband and did not encounter trouble when boarding the plane.
When the flight entered the level flight state, Wang Dong asked the flight attendant for a pillow.
All the way, he didn't even close his eyelids.
"What are your plans for the future?"
"I don't know, I haven't thought about it, and I don't have time to think about it." Wang Dong smiled reluctantly. "By the way, why are you doing such a dangerous job?"
"It's about my father."
"Your father is a police officer?"
Serena didn't want to say it, but Wang Dong asked, and she couldn't help it.
Serena's father was a missionary who had long spread faith in God on the African continent.
For this reason, Serena spent her childhood in Africa, traveling to many countries.
When she was four years old, she followed her father to Uganda.
Two years later, war broke out in Uganda.
At the time of the incident, she was hiding in a very small wooden box.
In her presence, rebels who believed in another god killed her parents.
It was only a few days later that she was rescued by officers and soldiers of the Foreign Legion.
More than 20 years have passed, but Serena has never forgotten what happened.
"When I returned to France, I vowed to be a police officer and eradicate all violence. Although I grew up knowing that this idea was unrealistic, ......"
At this time, Serena found out that Wang Dong had fallen asleep.
Sighing with a wry smile, Serena asked the flight attendant for a blanket to cover Wang Dong.
In fact, Serena also had an older brother who was also killed in the war.
Although the memory of her brother is very vague, and the difference between the two is eight years old, in Wang Dong, Serena found that familiar feeling, even if Wang Dong is not much older than her.
This feeling comes from a similar experience.
At that time, it was her brother who let her hide in the box and escape the catastrophe.
In her memory, her brother was always able to defend her against danger.
Four hours later, the flight arrived at Rabat International Airport.
The two did not leave the airport, bought tickets to Zurich, and went through the transfer procedures.
After waiting for three hours, the two boarded a flight to Zurich.
As before, Wang Dong slept as soon as he got on the plane.
This is not only a habit from instinct, but also to avoid in-depth conversations with Serena, because Wang Dong does not want to mention the future.
Having come to this point, Wang Dong is also very confused.
Do you want to find out about your past?
The intellectual side tells him that he must be checked, everyone has a past, and according to cause and effect, everything in the present is related to the past.
The emotional side tells him not to investigate, people live in the present, work hard for the future, and not dwell on the past.
Wang Dong is very conflicted, he doesn't want to think about it, and he doesn't want to discuss it with others.
