Chapter Twenty-Nine: Bloodstained Dusk
After being called out by the soldiers, Xia Han was still quite afraid.
Because two soldiers walked behind him, one left and one right, although there was no arm movement, this triangular formation looked like he was being escorted as a prisoner.
The onlookers came to the opposite conclusion.
Is Brother Han going to enlist in the army? Or maybe it's the Bayi basketball team.
In short, goodbye Brother Han.
Xia Han came to the school gate, Weiyang was already sitting in the military jeep waiting for him, at this time, the traffic in the city center was much better, the two were put on blindfolds after the jeep officially started, after a large section of viaduct turned to a military camp on the outskirts of the city.
On both sides of the road in the barracks were four- and five-story soldiers' dormitory buildings, and at the end of the road was a fifteen or sixteen-story high-rise building, and the two did not dare to speak all the way.
"Report to the head of the counter-terrorism team." A soldier said after opening the car door for them.
Anti-Terrorist Unit?
With doubts, the two were led into a small command hall.
In the distance, a lanky, swarthy major stared at the real-time intelligence map on the big screen, then turned and brought the two to the table to sit down, and a soldier handed over two more bottles of mineral water.
"Tank, explain." The major threw out a stack of photographs.
"Tanks? What tanks? Xia Han's eyes widened.
Isn't this the aftermath of the Magic Society? Dad, don't fool me.
"A tank from an armored division is missing, and the result is the same number as the one reported by the Magic Association to be found in Minxing Park, how did you do it?" The major said with a gloomy face.
"Heidegger said," Xia Han laughed suddenly, "and conscience can only speak in silence often. ”
I won't say it.
"I'm not as patient as you in the wizarding world, this matter involves the military, and a serious explanation must be given."
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
"Under Article 6 of the Magical Envoys Convention, I have the right to remain ......"
"Coincidentally, why did your sister also write about tanks."
You've found out! Xia Han shivered all of a sudden.
But the military came to a strange conclusion.
"Why did you tell your sister about your mission?"
"She had to ask."
Boom! The Major thumped the table hard.
"Don't write out confidential tasks in the future. Xiao Xia, don't you have any consciousness at all? ”
"I'm sorry, but Major Han, don't go around in circles, okay?"
"Do you know my surname is Han?" The Major looked at his clothes with a puzzled look at him for a moment, and then looked at his clothes, as if there was no clue.
Looking at the corners of Xia Han's gradually curled mouth, Weiyang sighed, this guy is probably going to show off his existence again.
"Because the report in front of you says, Major Han, the head of the operation."
"I understand this," Major Han leaned back in his chair and looked at him again, "You have a good background and abilities that we don't have, but it's not okay to be so arrogant." ”
"I was wrong," Xia Han sat up straight suddenly, "please instruct the chief." ”
"Don't come to this set, generally speaking, we don't deal with the magic world, but this time the matter is more complicated, there are both cases involving the military and the magic world, since you have also signed up for this event, it is necessary to explain the situation."
Xia Han breathed a sigh of relief, it sounded like this matter was serious.
◇
While looking at the photos on the table, I listened to Major Han's introduction.
The photo shows Gao Shan, two men in mountaineering suits standing side by side smiling, one is fatter with white hair on the sideburns, and the other is tall and thin.
Two years ago, Wu Xun, the 26-year-old son of Wu Cheng, the chairman of Xikang Pharmaceutical, was kidnapped while playing golf in Huangshan, and the kidnapping was carried out by an international terrorist organization named Aesop, but after receiving a ransom of 200 million, the six kidnappers actually tore up the ticket and the body was missing.
Coincidentally, in addition to Xia Han and Weiyang, there are exactly six people living in the mountain villa.
And, the number one sponsor of this trail run happens to be Xikang Pharmaceutical. Fortunately, Wucheng continued ten years ago, and Xikang Pharmaceutical has a new heir, and it has been thriving in the past two years, but the past has not yet been settled.
"In the past two years, our group has also been tracking down the six kidnappers of that year, although the current intelligence is not enough to prove that all six people are all, but we do not plan to stop this suspected assassination because ......"
"It's a good opportunity to cast a long line and catch big fish." Xia Han followed and concluded.
If six people are captured in one fell swoop, it could help to break up the power of this terrorist organization in the country.
But why do you still have to send out a notice to startle the snake?
"Won't it scare those six people away?"
"This is the strange part, the organizers received a notice of withdrawal from everyone, but the seven contestants, including Miss Xu, did not quit."
Cursed? No, there is another possibility.
"So the six of them are actually here to meet?"
No.
"At that time, the trade was gold bars, and the delivery location was this villa, and the rumor inside Aesop is that one of the six craftsmen made a lock, and six keys were needed to insert it at the same time to open the chest."
I see.
The waiter, the child, the poet, the angel, the greedy, and the craftsman are the code names of the six.
Not surprisingly, the gold bars were hidden somewhere in the villa, and at that time the six people were each given a key, and now they meet to share the spoils together!
If this operation is successful, even Wu Xun's body can be recovered.
"As for the poet who participated in the activities of your Literature Department," Major Han diverted the subject, "his residence is on the east side of the third floor, but the strange thing is that this room was on fire yesterday, so there will be adjustments, but fortunately, there are enough rooms in that villa." ”
"Are you sure he's a kidnapper too?"
"On this point," Major Han looked at Xia Han solemnly, "Please also find evidence." ”
"Understood, but can you let Weiyang go back?"
"I'm not going back." Weiyang said.
“……”
"I suggest you go together, because there is a magician hidden among the six of them."
“……”
"Xiao Xia, we will ambush you on the periphery and wait for your signal, as long as you confirm all their crimes, we will arrest them as soon as possible."
"What if Mr. Wu advances? I guess he's in there, too. ”
"He didn't reply, anyway, we will only startle the snake when we go in, so in case he is here, please protect him together."
"Okay, got it."
I see, there are not so many mysteries to solve, on the contrary, the main task is to confirm rather than speculate.
The six kidnappers didn't bother with this death warning at all, because their strength was there, so the biggest difficulty in this operation was fighting.
There are three tasks:
1. Confirm the corresponding identities of the six people, find evidence, and capture all alive.
2. Find the gold bars.
3. Find Wu Xun's remains.
In addition, it is necessary to protect Wu Cheng.
Since we arrive at the villa tomorrow evening (Friday, March 9), the competition starts the next day, which means that there is probably only one chance for one night.
As for the enemy's purpose, it is also very simple, kill Wu Cheng to recover the gold bar.
And Wu Cheng's purpose is undoubtedly revenge and finding his son's body.
It is worth mentioning that if the mission is successful, there will be a military reward of 100,000 yuan.
Unfortunately, this has already been known to Ning Ran.
Fortunately, according to Xia Han's requirements, Ning Ran also continued to provide all kinds of information, such as hospital registration lists, financial statements, and other very small things.
Anyway, it's a complicated task, but fortunately I have a killer idea.
◇
It was already evening when he returned home, and the killer sat on the stairs in the antechamber with a displeased face, scratching the puffs in his arms.
In fact, if you look closely, the front hall is quite spacious.
Because there is nothing but the often broken grandfather clock and the abandoned fireplace, it looks as empty as the hallway, but the living room is instead luxurious furniture and daily necessities, and the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the living room are open to a small courtyard, and you can stand by the window to see the pots and pots in the courtyard.
"Looks like you're already famous." Xia Han went over and brushed Qingyi's hair and sat beside her.
Weiyang also sat silently beside Xia Han.
This silence is just right to reverie the killing or redemption that we will face tomorrow.
But the three of them blocked the stairs, and Yueji, who was just about to come down from the upstairs, had to shrink back.
"If my brother doesn't want to go, it's okay......"
"Got it all?"
"Sister Weiyang, I really want to ask you......" Qingyi suddenly sat up straight.
"Huh? If I don't go......" Weiyang replied tentatively.
"Can I bring puffs?"
In fact, just like this cat, the coldness, independence and stubbornness of the two girls are not known to Xia Han.
So like this cat, did I take them in, or did they give me permission to enter their world?
So......
"Happy Holidays."
Saying so warmly, Xia Han gradually smiled outside the door.
"Where's the flower?"
"yes, no sincerity."
“…… Let's go out to eat, I'll have a treat, and I'll leave tomorrow full of energy. ”
After changing the way they answered, both girls turned out to be dumb.
Xia Hanjing stepped out of the door, and after a while, Weiyang followed, and the two looked back together, and found that Qingyi had not yet appeared.
"Where's the puff!!" Panicked shouts were heard from the room.
Did you forget to bring it back from school...... No, I just saw it again.
Meow.
The puff rubbed at Xia Han's feet, and Weiyang picked it up with a smile.
And Xia Han looked at the sky with a worried face, it was a raging dusk.
Putting aside all expectation and curiosity, tomorrow the three of them will face endless killing, witnessing the pathos and sorrow of others.
Earthly misfortunes need to be re-weighed by the scales of order.
That is, the meaning of my existence.
And whether it is successful or not, what will never change is still this blood-stained twilight.
A child of the family, a candidate for the future guardian of the city, he has lived in this mansion since he was a child, just like Weiyang has lived in that three-story building since he was a child. This small piece of land means that the weight on his shoulders has never felt so relaxed and dazzling in the eyes of others.
After breathing blankly, looking at the past side by side with Weiyang may be the only happy time in youth.
It doesn't matter the sounds of people and cars around you, it doesn't matter the hustle and bustle of the city.
The spaces between the buildings are dyed bright red.
The wind at dusk is biting, but it's reassuring.
It's only been half a year to see my sister.,It's half a year to really have an intersection with Weiyang.,The memories before that are very thin.,How much I feel like my previous self is gradually disappearing.,And I don't want to lose to this disappearing memory.,But there's no answer.,There's no one to talk to.。
The only thing that can be recalled is this familiar sunset, so is it really my own luxury to protect and weigh it, or is it for other purposes?
They chose to face everything because of the past, but that's all.
No matter what the challenges and difficulties are, I want to see their smiling faces every day more than these.
Isn't it too gentle for a man?
"What a daze, let's go." Two girls woke him up from a distance.
