Chapter 22
What to do? What to do? What to do?
In a second, Richard's mind was racing and he was thinking of all possible contingencies, but none of them worked, and in the end, he decided to go ahead with the original plan.
He smiled stupidly, put his arms around the cash box, pretended to be greedy, picked up a few stacks of banknotes, checked them, and then closed the lid of the box with satisfaction, "Very good, enough friends, let's make a deal." ”
Richard took out the list paper bag again, lost it between his two fingers, and handed it over.
The fake Said did not suspect fraud, took the paper bag, and carried it into his arms.
Several people stood up and walked out of the secret room through different doors.
Richard quickly returned to the old mansion, estimated that the time was almost up, and took out a lighter, wanting to see if Said had been blown up.
Lighting the fire, chanting incantations, suddenly, a small screen jumped out, he saw the room, there was a dead body on the ground, the wall was sprayed with blood and flesh everywhere, a man was looking down at the ground, for a moment, he looked up, oh my God, isn't this Said? Why, he wasn't blown up?
This is the true body of Said!
On the screen, several people came in the dark room, put the dead bodies on the ground into body bags, and carried them out. Saeed hung his face and paced back and forth in the room.
Richard knew that Said had escaped and killed the boy today. He estimated that Ma Tsai might have opened the paper bag in advance, triggered **, and detonated a high-explosive bomb.
Fuck, this kid is a big deal! Richard couldn't help but sigh with emotion. But then he was frustrated, and his target was Syed, not anyone else. But Saeed is still alive, which means that his mission is far from complete.
He started smoking, one after the other, and suddenly, his phone rang, and when he picked it up, his eyes lit up, and it turned out to be Erin calling. Erin told him to rush to her apartment as soon as possible, saying that there was a major discovery.
He cheered in his heart, immediately went out, got into the car and went straight to Erin's house.
After a while, the car arrived at the downstairs of Eileen's apartment, and he quickly went upstairs and entered the door that Eileen had already opened.
Erin was leaning over the computer, saw Richard and said nervously: "I hacked into the website of 'Meike', and I also found the internal emails and QQ text messages between them, you see, that's it." ”
Erin called up all the internal emails and text messages, and Richard looked at them one by one in front of the screen.
After reading it for ten minutes, I finally found an email, which reads like this:
Said: Boss, I've been very busy these days, I still don't see this person, you can find someone from the affairs department to meet him.
Boss: No, this person is very important, from Greece, he has a treasure in hand, you must see it. I've made an appointment with him, and he'll meet you at the old captain's café.
Saeed: So, okay, what time is it, which table? Is there a picture of him?
Owner: Old Captain's Cafe, table 8, tomorrow, at one o'clock sharp. The photo will be sent to you shortly.
Saeed: Okay, okay, yes.
Richard raised his head, his eyes shining with triumph: "Said, the old fox's tail has finally made me hold it, and now he has good fruit to eat." ”
Erin smiled with satisfaction, and Richard took out a thick wad of bills and stuffed them into her hand: "You have done a great job, and you have been given another task, you have to modify and steal the confidential data of the 'Metco' company, or interfere with their computer programs, can you do it?" ”
"Yes, leave that to me." Erin saw that her efforts had not been in vain, and tears of joy flowed down her eyes.
Richard suppressed his excitement and immediately drove to the old captain's café. When I entered the door, I asked the waiter, "I want to sit at table 8." ”
The waiter led him to table 8, where he sat down and pretended to order a coffee snack.
After the waiter left, he looked around, there were more than 20 tables in the whole café, and the location of this table happened to be close to the window, outside was the road, the view was very wide, and it was ideal for sniping.
He watched through the tall floor-to-ceiling windows to see across the street a factory building, which was not suitable for sniping. Diagonally behind, there is an 18-story hotel, and I wonder which room is more suitable for the sniper position.
After a snack and coffee, he stepped onto the road and got into his sports car.
In the car, he took out a fake hood, put it on his head and tried it, and felt that the effect was not bad. Then he took out a mustache with two upturned heads, glued it to his upper lip, and took out the chrome civilization stick from the back seat, and then he was transformed into a rich old gentleman.
I opened my briefcase again, picked out a Greek passport among a pile of fake passports, put it in my jacket pocket, and then got out of the car and walked into the lobby of the "Prince Hotel" at the back of the street.
The waiter stepped forward politely, bowed, and said, "Thank you for coming, one?" ”
"No, two," he said to the front desk, handing over his passport, "I'm from Greece for sightseeing, two people, for seven days, please book me a room with a view of the street." ”
The front desk clerk glanced at his passport and said, "Okay, sir, which one do you want?" ”
Richard thought for a moment and said, "I want this room on the third floor." He gestured to the one directly across from the café.
"This one? Okay, please pay a deposit for three days. A total of five hundred. ”
"Can I take a look at the room now?" Richard paid the deposit.
"Yes, I'll show you." After checking in, the front desk attendant returned his passport and gave him the key to his room.
Richard followed the waitress to the elevator.
He followed the waiter into the room, which was a five-star hotel, the room was luxuriously furnished, he walked to the window, looked down, and saw the window of the café opposite, just in front of him, about 250 meters away from him.
He said in his heart that this position had a clear view, not too far away, and that sniping at this distance would allow him, a sharpshooter, to hit the left eye of a flying fly.
After observing the terrain and stepping on the plate, he was already 100% sure. Out of the "Prince Hotel", he drove to a small street on Houyuan Road.
At this time, Richard changed into a criminal investigation uniform and walked down the side street, surrounded by low bungalows.
In front of a house, he looked up at the number and knocked on the door.
The door opened a crack, and a middle-aged man poked his head out and asked vigilantly, "Are you...... Who are you looking for? ”
Richard recognized him: "What, Shadow Boss, don't know me anymore?" ”
The shadow boss thought for a long time, and finally recognized him: "Ouch, isn't this Inspector Li?" Oops, old friend, hurry up, hurry in. ”
Richard followed the back room and looked around, only to see that it was dimly lit, with many large boxes and cabinets, and machine parts and miscellaneous items piled up everywhere.
"How did you find me? I remember you haven't been here. ”
Richard smiled lightly: "Have you forgotten what I was eating?" How's it going, how is business going lately? ”
"So-so, thanks to your old blessing, you can still get along."
"Shadow, you're an expert at smuggling weapons, and I want to ask you a question, which sniper rifle is good?"
"Which...... Good? I'm ...... I don't understand? ”
Richard saw that he was a little nervous, so he comforted him: "Look, look at you scared like that." Relax, I don't mean anything else, I just want to buy a sniper rifle. ”
The Shadow Boss touched the back of his head, "Huh...... What's this...... I have a lot of models here, you can pick one. ”
The shadow boss pointed to a few sniper rifles and said, "These are the latest models, they are accurate, and they are the standard equipment of the Criminal Investigation Bureau." ”
The Shadow Boss took out a few more gun boxes, opened them, and introduced them one by one: "This is the 'Smith & Wesson' sniper rifle; ‘**’***; This is 'Webley', 'Bulldog', 'Veraudoug', 'Chai Miraut', 'Imperial', 'Arminius'......"
Richard was impatient: "Alright, alright, you can recommend it to me." ”
The Shadow Boss asked, "What's your sniper range?" ”
"250 meters."
"Oh, 250 meters? It's not close. ”
"It's a piece of cake for me, and I've hit a target of 1,500 meters at the farthest."
"I know you're a sharpshooter. Okay, that's it. ”
The Shadow Boss held up a shiny gun with an optical scope and introduced, "This gun has the highest accuracy, **, not to mention 250 meters, even 2500 meters, and it can easily hit hearts." Its optical sight is 8x, the field of view is wide, and the ruler is clear. ”
Richard took the gun, weighed it repeatedly in his hand, thought it was very good, and finally slapped the body of the gun, "I want this one, how much?" ”
"Hehe, someone else's five thousand, you, throw two thousand."
"Okay, here you go." Richard pulled out the bills, counted dozens of them, and handed them to Shadow.
"Thank you, thank you."
"Thanks for what. Call me if there's something. He skillfully disassembled the gun, put the parts into the case, and then lifted the case and turned to go out.
Back in the car, Richard took out an empty suitcase, loaded the gun case into it, and then drove to the "Prince Hotel", asked the waiter to drive the car into the basement, and carried the suitcase into the lobby himself.
Since he had already checked in, he went straight to the elevator and then into room 306.
That night Richard had a good meal, drank a moderate amount of wine, then made a sauna, and found a beautiful chick, and played for half the night.
At half past twelve noon the next day, half an hour before the scheduled time, he had already set up his sniper rifle, pointed the muzzle of the gun at the window of the café diagonally opposite, and waited for the big fish to take the bait.
Ten minutes to go, and he reckoned that Saeed would show up today. He leaned over his gun and looked out the window through the scope.
A crosshaired line appeared in the scope, and the sights and pedestrians on the street were pulled very close, and he glanced towards the intersection of the two streets, and saw that there were many vehicles moving there, and then he looked to the left, and saw that there were not many pedestrians on the street.
He aimed to the right again and found only a few idlers wandering around the intersection.
Richard raised his wrist to look at his watch, and the minute hand was a minute short of 1 o'clock, and Richard turned the muzzle of his gun and aimed at the opposite window.
At this time, several men walked in from the café opposite, and several of them walked to table 8, shook each other's hands, and then sat down.
