Chapter 584: A Living Legend
Big Ben, also known as the Elizabeth Tower, was an iconic building at the height of the Victorian dynasty in the mid-19th century, and has been the largest clock tower in the world for more than 100 years, representing the majesty and power of the empire on which the sun never sets.
Of course, with the progress of society, the British Dynasty has reached the age of the twilight, not long ago the Saudi tyrants who started by selling oil built a large number of world firsts, including the world's largest clock tower.
However, although Saudi Arabia has built a bunch of world firsts in one go, no one will pay attention to it at all.
After all, with the current building conditions, as long as you are willing to spend money, theoretically speaking, it is easy to surpass the world wonders built by the ancients.
Besides, the meaning and cultural heritage of these monumental buildings are not just by throwing money at them.
Big Ben is located next to the River Thames and in front of the Palace of Westminster, the hall of the British Parliament.
So when Gin said that the first target of the six bones was the British Congress, Li Qingyuan immediately thought of the other party's plan.
Because from any disaster movie or epic blockbuster, the first step in the fall of London was the bombing of Big Ben, as if you had come to England, and if you didn't blow up this clock tower, it would feel like something was wrong.
With the character of the six skeletons that is crazy and even blows himself up, if he doesn't choose Big Ben as the first breakthrough, then there is really a ghost.
Just now, he also took the poison island boy to watch people set off fireworks in the square behind Big Ben, if Gin's bastard's phone call was ten minutes late, and the bell tower hundreds of meters high fell from the sky, then unless he could turn into a Hulk, otherwise he really couldn't stand it.
However, the probability of such a huge bell tower falling and hitting his head is almost negligible, but Master Li, who has never been confident in his luck, thinks it is better not to take that risk.
So after hanging up Gin's phone, he walked directly to the other side of the square with the poison island guy.
It would have been a very difficult thing to move forward in the almost crowded square, but this little trouble was not a problem at all in the face of Master Li's brute force, anyway, as long as all the guys in the way pushed away.
There were countless insults along the way, and by the time he retreated to the high ground next to the River Thames with the Poison Island Boy, Big Ben's clock had finally come to an end.
“Duang…… Duang…… Duang……”
The four-metre-long minutes on Big Ben finally came to an end, and the huge bell tower began to sound its melodious bells.
"Senior Bond, your health care doctor has said many times that your current physical condition is really not suitable for coming to such a crowded place."
Westminster Square, Agent Hart looked at the old man in front of him and said with some concern.
Now the square is crowded with people, if the living ancestor in front of him is accidentally bumped and fallen, his political career will really be over.
It is true that this old man used to be the world's top master, but after all, he is over 90 years old, and if he bumps into it, it will cost his life.
To know James. Bond, that is a living legend in the secret service world, this living ancestor was active on the Allied battlefield during World War II, obtained a lot of confidential information from Nazi Germany, and was made a nobleman by Her Majesty the Queen because of this achievement.
Later, during the Cold War, James. Bond's name is even more resounding throughout the world, when the Soviet KGB was famous all over the world, but he could ignore the KGB blockade as nothing, and even infiltrate the Kremlin alone to steal information.
Generally speaking, people like secret agents live in the shadows, but Bond has lived an alternative life, his reputation is known all over the world, and even the movies based on him have been widely praised all over the world over the years, and he himself has become a banner of the British government.
So even if the Home Secretary, Lady Hilda, was sprayed in the face by this old fellow, she could only spit on herself.
Who calls people too old!
Although the world's major intelligence organizations have joined forces to block the news that the Six Bones are preparing to cause trouble in London, James. Bond is worthy of being the world's top agent, and he smells a hint of conspiracy in the air.
It's just that he has been retired for too long, and the guys in the Military Intelligence Agency don't believe that his group has tens of thousands of horses and the most advanced monitoring equipment in the world, is it better than an old man who has retired a long time ago?
Of course, thirty years ago, James. Bond is famous all over the world, but he is already an old man who can be an ancient, everyone is coaxing you, and you will retire peacefully, right? Do you have to run back and point fingers, are you annoyed?
"There must be a problem here!" Ignoring Harry's nagging, Bond stopped in the square, looked up at Big Ben in the sky and said.
"Bond-senpai, it's really time for you to go back and rest." Agent Harry said helplessly.
Taking care of this living ancestor is really quite annoying. Bond made a big fuss about Downing Street, and if it weren't for the fact that his qualifications were too old, even if the prime minister saw him, he would have been sent to the custody on charges of alarmism.
Because Bond really couldn't produce substantive evidence, and the group of military intelligence officers insisted that nothing abnormal had happened in London recently, so in the end, the cabinet felt that it was estimated that the legend of this secret service was Alzheimer's, so he had to coax and deceive him.
I can't help it! This guy is an antique from the same era as Her Majesty the Queen, and no one dares to offend him, so he can only send him away in the way of sending him away.
It's just that although the cabinet members thought they were doing it seamlessly, they didn't want to think about it. Bond was a legend in the secret service world back then, although his skills and reactions have deteriorated because of his age, but his mind is still clear!
So these days, this old guy is alone in the streets of London looking for clues, vowing to find out the problem.
It's a pity that although he was a legend in the secret service industry back then, he is old after all, and now the major intelligence organizations around the world are joining forces to dig a hole for the British government to jump.
In addition, the partners and informants who worked with him back then are almost old and dead, so until today, James . Bond also found no substantial evidence.
