Chapter 48: The Presidential Suite

After dinner, everyone returned to the hotel and replaced the room type with a European-style presidential suite, and when everyone stepped in, they saw a huge European-style floor-to-ceiling window, covered by brown and white curtains. The floor is covered with brightly colored handmade carpets of pure wool, and on the white European royal style relief walls, three oil paintings of lifelike figures and landscapes are hung, one of which is a sailing ship sailing through the waves, fighting against black thunderclouds and storms at sea; In the shade of a leafy oak forest, a group of young women in medieval aristocratic dresses are holding an open-air party, holding white handkerchiefs and parasols, chatting and laughing together, or raising a glass to drink; There is also a sketch of a fruit table.

The presidential suite, which is about 300 square meters, is furnished with beige European-style mahogany furniture, soft and comfortable villa rustic leather sofas, French-style pastoral beds, and modern household appliances.

Louis walked to the window and pulled the curtains open, reflecting the colorful neon lights of the various shops that had not yet closed in the night outside: "I didn't expect to be able to enjoy such a comfortable living environment in backward Africa." It was a surprise. ”

"It's a 4 star hotel after all. A place to receive domestic VIPs. There will be everything that should be. This is probably the best hotel in the capital. Katyusha unsheathed the holster on her leg, rubbed her sore leg, and placed it on the couch coffee table.

Olivia also came to the window and observed the structure, thickness and color of the glass: "This glass is not bulletproof, and when I rest at night, I still stay away from the window, and there is chaos outside, and I don't know where the stray bullets will fly from." ”

"Well, everyone pay more attention to safety and keep a certain distance from the window." Hugh emphasized.

"Here, on." Louis retrieved two explosive-shaped devices from his backpack and threw one of them to Hugh.

"......., is it necessary to set up a tripmine here?" Hugh asked.

"Of course it's necessary, I don't want to break in in the middle of the night and wake up my sweet dreams. This tripping mine has a lead, in your hand, you pull it out and insert it into the detonator on my side, we install the tripping mine behind the door, whoever wants to break into the door and touch the lead, it will blow up. Without saying a word, Louis closed the door to the presidential suite and fixed the explosive device behind the door.

"That's fine, everyone can worry a little bit and don't have to worry about the movement outside. Sleep soundly, too. Katyusha took an American apple from the fruit tray on the coffee table, shaved it with a fruit knife, and looked at the two busy behind the door from time to time.

"If it's okay, I'll go take a shower first." Olivia said as she took off her jacket and walked to the bathroom.

Hugh helped Louis install the trip mine, took out a bottle of German Riesling apple champagne from the refrigerator, poured himself a glass, turned on the TV and watched today's domestic news on the English channel, a reporter with a microphone in his hand, with his back to the gate of a factory, appeared on the screen: "Now for the live broadcast of war news, the southern industrial town of Kashgar is currently controlled by the ** armed forces, and the heads of the six energy and chemical plants here have joined the ** camp and arranged for workers to work overtime for ** The spokesman of the State Council previously expressed strong protest and stern condemnation of the mutiny of these factories, and claimed that if they did not abandon the darkness and withdraw from the area as soon as possible, and strive for leniency, they would be subjected to heavy artillery fire by government forces. ”

At this time, the camera left the news reporter and turned to several ** armed soldiers, who were escorting two groups of government soldiers who had abandoned their weapons and surrendered, passing through the road in front of the factory gate. As he spoke, three armored personnel carriers converted from pickup trucks, full of armed soldiers raising guns and cheering for victory, passed by, and at the rear of each pickup truck, a 75-mm field gun with a military emblem captured from the government army was dragged by a rope hook.

Soon the picture switched, the scenery of the African savannah appeared in front of Hugh, a white-bearded old man wearing a light yellow sweatshirt and gray shorts, squatting next to the empty skeleton of several bison, took the microphone from the reporter's hand, and said worriedly: "Hello everyone, I am a wildlife scientist, in recent months, the number of a variety of herbivorous wild animals on the grasslands of our country has shown a downward trend, and many animals have caused unnatural deaths in the round-up shooting. I hereby appeal to both warring sides to treat animals kindly, and not to let the extinction of cherished and endangered species become an eternal regret. ”

The old man continued: "And these animals are also an important condition for the development of our country's tourism industry, no matter who wins this war in the end, I hope you can be soberly aware." Without these animals, there would be no foreign tourists and no foreign exchange earnings. I can't be hungry, I can go to the several humanitarian aid stations set up by the United Nations in my country to collect food rations, thank you for your cooperation. ”

"Rest early, Olivia and I will sleep in the bed, you two squeeze into the sofa." Katyusha turned the air conditioner to the lowest, took two thin blankets, and handed them to Hugh and Louis.

Just as the members of the special agent team had just fallen asleep, on the outskirts of the capital, a flight formation of four armed MiG-35 fighters and two Russian Tu-95 bombers gradually emerged from the deep clouds.

On an air defense position on the outskirts of the capital, several government soldiers were leaning on two self-propelled fireproof antiaircraft guns and napping.

Seeing that the situation was not good, one of the surviving soldiers quickly ran to the barracks next to it and pressed the button of the air defense alarm.

Suddenly, the whole city sounded the sound of a terrible and high-pitched air raid siren, and the large and small bright searchlights illuminated the dark night sky, and the soldiers of the air defense bases in the city cheered up their spirits, quickly loaded the antiaircraft antiaircraft guns with ammunition, and hurriedly adjusted the fire control system of the surface-to-air missiles.

Looking down at the city from the perspective of the MiG-35 fighters, I saw citizens the size of ants rushing out of various buildings, onto the street, and running lifeless towards the nearby bomb shelters.
