Beer is as integral to Düsseldorf as is the coffee served in the roadside restaurants of Paris, and the hundreds of densely populated bistros and brasseries that serve old beer are concentrated in the old town. The streets of the old town are lined with rows of green benches and tables that can accommodate up to 1,000 people for a drink at the same time, accompanied by the buildings full of history and memories of the old town, as well as the delightful atmosphere of living.

The taverns of the Old Town were very popular, and the situation became even more fervent as there were fewer places to enjoy on earth with war and the environment--- students and teachers from nearby universities, rich and powerful people from the wealthy districts, and futuristic artists and intellectuals who were confused about the future of the Union gathered like rain in sewers. There's plenty to do to keep you entertained, and if you're not happy to sit on the long street and drink, sit by the Rhine and enjoy a book and a beer while enjoying a snack with pretzels, sausages and sauerkraut.

At 12:30 p.m. in Düsseldorf, it is the afternoon rush hour for taverns in the Old Town, and customers are everywhere, moving in thousands. Bruce. Strauss took advantage of the convenience of this chaotic flow of people to cover up with the old Titans troops, Victor. Tumanovsky joints. Five members of the Blue Crusade, the extremist force within the Blue Cosmos, had blended into the crowd as ordered, kept an appropriate distance from Bruce, and responded with force if they found anyone sabotage.

The Basque Country, which has been controlled by Saitoichi. The head of the old ministry of Titans, whom Aum mastered, Viktor. Tumanovsky rejected the ten-man Einsatzgruppen sent on the grounds that the men were too military to perform such a task. Tumanovsky intended to carefully carry out Saito's order, which was to ensure the possibility of a second meeting and thus a tangible "result" or "end" for Bruce.

Tumanovsky followed Bruce to a particular tavern, but it took him a moment to spot Bruce in the crowd--- who was sitting behind a table with a beer in one hand. Buildings and branches in the air shade the sun, and at the other end of the table sit a few people basking in the afternoon sun, and the path behind the table leads to the complex streets, dense woods, then the relatively wide city hall square, and finally to the Rhine by an extremely difficult path to follow. The distance to City Hall Square was less than 2,000 steps, which provided Bruce with the best escape route in case of trouble.

Qin Wuyang has the first-hand investigation information of this place in his hand, and the information has already been entered, but he does not use advanced equipment--- because the more advanced the electronic equipment, the more likely it is to have various failures, including being misled, and he stubbornly uses the old method of using his habits--- his head and physical map. He walked along the Rhine and did not dive back until the crowd had gathered.

The pub is self-service, with dozens and hundreds of people gathered around the beer tower, and more customers walking around or gathering in groups to gossip. Under these conditions, it is almost unthinkable to observe the people who are mixed in from a distance.

Qin Wuyang clinged to or swirled around the people one by one, blending in with the noisy flow of people, moving slowly and irregularly between the tables, but what he never expected was that the agents sent by A-Laws were around him in order to intervene at a specific time. But these A-Laws agents were too focused on Qin Wuyang in the crowd, but they were already targeted by agents of the Federal Army's Military Intelligence Department--- each of them suffered almost the same fate, one by one the barrels of guns covered by magazines or something else against their waists, and then the federal documents flashed in front of their eyes, and then a calm but irresistible voice ordered them to obey obediently. Several of the A-Laws agents were escorted away from the rest of the stage.

But the five members of the Blue Crusade, three men and two women, had not seen this wonderful scene, they had scattered in the crowd, looking at Bruce from all angles, and their eyes were always vigilantly watching everyone around Bruce from five angles that were constantly flowing. A Blue Crusader with a beer on the other end of the blues table saw a tall, muscular man approaching from the corner of Hunsrückenstrße.

Soon, Bruce saw the man, one hand holding the silenced pistol in the holster of the lower shoulder of his left arm.

"You're waiting for me, I'm Victor. Tumanovsky," said the man, wiping his sweat as he sat down at the table, "kept you waiting. ”

Bruce waited for the Titans to sit across from him and leaned forward, before slowly controlling his voice to a barely audible voice suppressed by the ambient noise in a slightly rising tone:

"Basque. Orm told me that you have something that interests me. ”

Tumanovsky laughed dryly, and Bruce handed him a note with a string of numbers on it, and he continued:

"Fifty million federal coins, consider the protection that the information in my hand can bring to you, you will definitely agree."

"You're obviously more than that." Tumanovsky replied.

"Don't play tricks, my friend of Titans, you know the value of what I have in my hands, and you can't grab it, so I advise you not to ask too much, or you'll have nothing."

"What guarantee do you have that you won't turn your back and deny it?"

"Absolutely not. But if I do that, what will happen to the souls of Titans? ”

Tumanovsky was already on fire, enraged by the arrogance of the person opposite, but he still maintained the composure of an intelligence officer:

"Money is not a problem, it will arrive in 4 hours, tell me about the [attachment] you want."

"Indeed, if I get the money and attachments, you can get the file of documents."

"Then just say it."

"It's something I can't get," Bruce said, twisting his fingers, remembering the helpless conversation of an arms black businessman, "five boxes of your G-Series nerve grenades, one case at a time, with a disposable self-destruct launcher and an emergency shutdown button. ”

Tumanovsky was taken aback, for it was the most lethal of all the weapons of mass destruction that could be easily delivered, the imitation of the nerve gas that had caused the tragedy in the satellites, and that a single shot in the crowd would have killed and injured hundreds, if not thousands. But Tumanovsky then snickered, which was exactly what Saito Kazu, the man he actually obeyed--- so that the place of the second handover must be far from civilization, and everything would be easy.

"We don't have that thing anymore, and it's all destroyed when Saito comes to power." Tumanovsky deliberately lied, and he didn't want Bruce to be suspicious because he easily agreed.

"When I'm a fool, you have a lot of gadgets in one of the underground bases in the Ruhr, and they haven't been demolished yet."

Of course, Tumanovsky knew that Saito didn't actually give him the right to hand over these things directly, and he didn't even give him the right to agree to hand them over, and Saitoichi judged that it was a biological weapon or something else. But Tumanovsky agreed:

"I'll have to ask Om-sama for instructions."

"It's none of your business, I'll contact the Basque directly. Aum, you are in charge of getting the delivery location and rushing over, and after giving me things and money, I will naturally give you the documents and files. ”

Bruce's choice of location was a secluded, abandoned green base in a large desert that was his training base. But he didn't give the address right away, but wanted to wait until he and the Blue Crusaders went back to put the place on guard, so that he could prevent the Basque Country. Aum's men rushed over to ambush them, and when the money arrived, he wouldn't need it there.

Tumanovsky nodded, and Bruce continued:

"I know that you have to protect your own interests, you bring things over, I will give you things, you transfer money immediately, and the money will be in place within 10 minutes. But you can only bring a maximum of four people, and these people have to come in small vehicles and stay in the open air all the time, and I want to load my things in a minivan, and all I can do is a driver and you, understand? ”

"Did you mention the contents of the document to anyone else?"

"You're so smart, you guessed exactly right."

"You're great at getting these documents."

Hearing this, Bruce was about to tell Tumanovsky to say less about this pointless sycophant, but suddenly he was attracted to a man next to him.

A chunky guy was yelling at a man Bruce couldn't see, scolding the guy for hitting him and his beer for soiling his clothes. Humpty Dumpty chased after the man, and just as the man tried to sneak into the crowd, Humpty Dumpty pushed the man hard, only to have the man turn around and punch Humpty Dumpty's armpit. Humpty Dumpty suddenly rolled on his side and howled in pain, but at this time, Bruce also instantly saw the face of the scolded, beating man.

Seeing that Bruce began to move his body in order to observe, Tumanovsky asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The avenging angel chasing me," Bruce said, reaching into his clothes, "you get out of here, I'll contact the Basque later. Orm, get him ready. ”

With that, Bruce got up and walked towards the escape path.

A female member of the Blue Crusaders was nearby, and she saw the two men hurrying apart, unable to figure out what the danger was. But she immediately cooperated with Bruce's accomplices at the table, blended into the crowd, and stood on the side of the road to cover Bruce's retreat. The other three immediately began to move in a roundabout way, scanning the crowd as they held their hidden pistols.

Of course, Qin Wuyang had already recognized Bruce. He crept his way down the table, but was stopped by a drunken Humpty Dumpty, cursing that the wine had knocked over his wine and stained his clothes; Only then did he notice that his attention was too concentrated, and he did not notice that a man and a woman had occupied the entrance to the retreat.

After spitting hard, Qin Wuyang began to move unabashedly and began to attack in a straight line. His actions were immediately captured by the other three. Qin Wuyang squeezed through the crowd in order to find a gap to hit Bruce.

At this moment, Bruce suddenly accelerated, and the man and woman who remained at the entrance of the retreat route immediately asked the other three to take over the outer cover, and they followed Bruce and began to gallop so that they could support him at any time, and the three began to create chaos in the crowd. The moment the chaos began, Bruce turned his head, swept Qin Wuyang's face and shook his hand, almost shooting at two of his own people. He gestured for the two to split up, and then rushed into the retreat route himself.

Qin Wuyang followed Bruce closely, but was blocked by the crowd that began to be chaotic, and as soon as the crowd dispersed, he immediately rushed towards the bushes next to the path, but just as he was about to pounce forward on the bushes, he suddenly noticed the reflection on the waists of the two people on the left--- two people were raising their guns to aim. For a moment, Qin Wuyang felt that he had no hope of revenge, but he still turned sharply and knelt on one knee in order to reduce the area of the bullet or avoid the trajectory, but what happened next surprised him.

The two men fell to the ground in quick seconds or more, without splashing or spewing any blood.

Qin Wuyang didn't hear the gunshot, so he looked in the direction he thought it was a bullet according to his vague judgment and feeling--- about a little more than a meter away from him, his closest and deadliest visual blind spot, a woman he was familiar with reached into her lady's satchel with her right hand, and the launcher hidden in it was faintly visible.

"Adie 。。。。。" Qin Wuyang shook his head helplessly.

The female agent of the Federation shrugged her shoulders at the man in front of her, casually loosened her satchel and walked towards Qin Wuyang, she was not worried at all that anyone would hear the sound of her shooting, the sound of the scribing coated with mutated Teflon material was not audible in such a noisy environment.

"Isn't it right to get down on one knee and propose to me?" The female agent said with a smile after helping Qin Wuyang up.

"A second and a half, this angle is concentrated on the human head a few meters away and instantly numbs the target, it's really yours."

"You don't look happy."

"Without that Humpty Dumpty, I'd have killed Blue."

"That's why I'm here, do you really think that guy is a coincidence, your brain is really rusty." With that, the female agent pointed into the distance.

Qin Wuyang looked down, the Humpty Dumpty man stood there before and raised his left hand, his outstretched palm was first aimed at him to show that he had no weapon, and then turned to the extent that he turned his hand away from Qin Wuyang, and then the two fingers were raised and made an awkward reverse V-shaped gesture.

The corners of Qin Wuyang's mouth began to twitch suddenly--- this is an ancient scolding gesture, in ancient times, British longbowmen would always be cut off after being caught because of the reason of killing and injuring a large number of Frenchmen, and the longbowmen who escaped or survived usually put up a V in this way when facing the pursuit of the French, which means: Eat, I can still draw the bow, and come back to fight you. This is also one of the versions of the origin story of the current middle finger curse.

And among the peers Qin Wuyang knew, there was only one dwarf who would like to investigate all kinds of scolding history, so after he approached, he said hello weakly:

"Yo, Matsumoto."

"Let's go, your hunt has just begun, you have to calm me down, I don't want to have fewer people around me anymore... The Federation's agent, Yoshisuke Matsumoto, muttered as he walked forward.

"I need intelligence."

"It's anyone, so we just caught one, are we going to play good cop bad cop?"

"Don't..." Looking at the woman beside her who was blinking and smiling evilly, Qin Wuyang shook his head.
