Chapter Ninety-One: Fishing in Troubled Waters
"Long story short, Ironhide should tell you something, we have the possibility of bringing Optimus Prime back to life, we need you to airlift Optimus Prime over, our location is in the Gulf of Akaba, airborne coordinates ......"
On the other end of the phone, there was a voice from Suosuo, and Li Qi took Simon's locator and reported the current coordinates.
"I made a note of, the Gulf of Yaqaba, which is in Egypt, tens of thousands of kilometers from the United States, across the Atlantic Ocean, how did you fly there?"
"Well, although it's not flying, it's almost the same as flying, you have to come by air as soon as possible, the later the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for us, after you arrive at the airborne area, remember to contact me, I will correct our coordinates at any time."
"OK, no problem, we're at an air base in New Jersey. Optimus Prime has been loaded into the transport plane, and according to the order, we will take off at 21 o'clock in the evening, and I will figure out where to go and drop it. ”
As a comrade with himself, although Li Qi has not been in the lair army for a long time. But he was already very familiar with Lannos, and Iron Sheet had already informed Lanos of Li Qi's plan before, so Lannos had already been prepared.
After hanging up the phone, Lannos found his henchmen, locked down the detailed coordinates of the bay of Yakaba, and began to finalize the secret plan this time.
Black Lieutenant Robert. After listening to Lannos's explanation, Robert finally understood the pull of the matter and agreed to the secret plan, but also raised his own questions.
"If only we were the only ones. We can do it with just an excuse, but what should we do if that troublesome Galloway advisor wants to accompany us? ”
"I almost forgot about this guy, damn it." Lannos frowned.
The two were in the cab of the C17 to discuss, as well as Captain Jerry, the captain who was Lannos's confidant, at this time. Jerry suddenly winked at the two of them.
"I've got a way to get this guy, it's going to work."
On the other side, Li Qi and his entourage, who had contacted Lannos, quietly changed the shape of the car again, replaced it with a gray ordinary car, and got back on the road.
As they left, they passed the police car that was still reconciling with the owner of the tomato seller, and even if these policemen broke their heads, they probably couldn't imagine the target they were pursuing. I had already changed to a car and left.
"Oh no, there's a checkpoint ahead."
The detour avoided the police, and the group restarted on the road, but not far. I saw a checkpoint in front of me, a black police car parked next to it, two submachine guns on the makeshift pavilion, and several soldiers with rifles on both sides of the station, obviously it was impossible to break through.
"Passport, take it out quickly!"
A short officer in camouflage and a beret, shouting in broken English and still holding a radio in his hand, was checking other people's passports.
Not long ago, they had been alerted by the village police that several cars had broken into the village on suspicion of being spies or terrorists because they had refused to be inspected.
"It's over, we don't have passports!" Sam panicked.
"There's a camera up there." Michaela was alarmed.
"Sam, you and Michaela close the window and don't show your face, now hurry up and spray that bottle of potion and spray it in the face. The facial recognition system can't recognize your identity, and only Simon and the few of us don't know him, so we have to pretend to be his child and let him come forward to solve the problem. Li Qi commanded the crowd, and he didn't want Sam's position to be revealed.
Simon looked at Li Qi dumbfounded, pushed himself to the fire pit, and could only admit it helplessly, he also understood that what Li Qi said was true, so he could only open the car window helplessly.
"Poof, poof."
A little white horse pulling a cart snorted twice, looked curiously at the strange four-legged creature, and shook the bell around his neck proudly.
"Silly! Brother has the bell given by the master, do you have it! ”
The young pony, who had not yet been involved in the world, foolishly thought the car for some kind of kind of his own, and when he saw that the car did not react, he proudly stepped on the horse's hooves and pulled the carriage containing the dry corn stalks.
A short man in a military uniform walked over, with a serious look on his tanned face, and walked to the front of the car.
"Get out your passports, we need to check them."
The GIs on either side of him were holding rifles, staring at each other, and Simon stammered as much as he could, racking his brains to think of the Arabic that was about to be forgotten.
"Ah, that, we want to go to the tip of the dagger, Egypt, where Jordan, my family and I are traveling there, my ex-wife's eldest son, oh, he's Asian American with his mom, and now the second daughter, the third son, we're tourists from New York."
The first few sentences did not attract the attention of the short officer, but he was a little suspicious of Li Qi, the "eldest son", Egypt belongs to the pro-American faction, although it is not hostile to Huaxia, but it is also relatively cold, until after hearing Simon's last sentence, his face suddenly changed.
"New York? Oh, that's a big city in America! ”
"Yes, New York."
As a pro-American faction, when the short officer heard that Simon was a tourist from New York, he immediately paid a lot of attention to it, and he no longer minded Li Qi's identity.
"Follow the road, fifty kilometers ahead."
The short officer had a welcoming smile on his face, and it was obvious that Simon had gained his considerable attention, after all, in this place where birds don't lay eggs, it was rare to see a foreign tourist, still from New York, a big city in the United States, which made the short officer quite concerned.
"Let's go buy you a sandwich, thank you!"
Simon's heart breathed a sigh of relief, and he played haha with the short officer, which was kind of foolish, and even shook hands amicably, until they were far away, and the short officer gave up.
After passing through this checkpoint, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and in a pro-American country, the identity of the American is obviously very convenient, which is the same reason that in many anti-American countries, the identity of the Chinese is more popular.
For the rest of the journey, everyone was much more careful, anyway, the car was also stocked with food and fresh water, and after replenishing their strength, everyone continued on the road and set off towards the bay of Yakaba.
After about five hours, they arrived at a small city, Eilat, which belonged to Israel and the small city of Yaqaba in Jordan, less than a few kilometers away, on the left and right sides of the Yaqaba Bay, looking at each other.
