At Baghdad International Airport, an Airbus A320 passenger plane slowly landed on the runway of the airport.

The plane, which took off from the United Arab Emirates, carried hundreds of journalists from all over the world.

The men were grouped in the UAE in batches and escorted by two US Super Hornets to Iraqi territory.

The passenger plane, which had landed smoothly, slowly moved to the tarmac far from the terminal building, where the convoy prepared by the Iraqi national security forces was already waiting for them.

All the reporters on this trip actually hired security companies, but the Future Technology Group stipulated that any non-state armed forces (Idris is considered a government armed formation) and personnel of the future security company, other security companies or any form of personnel with firearms and dangerous controlled substances are prohibited from entering Marin Town.

As for the security of these journalists, it will be the responsibility of the Future Security Corporation and the Iraqi National Security Forces.

However, the Iraqi National Security Forces were only allowed to pick up the journalists and send them out of Baghdad safely.

Then in the future, the people of the security company will take over the protection task outside Baghdad, and then there will be nothing to do with the Iraqi national security forces.

And this is what the top echelons of the Iraqi national security forces demand, because they simply cannot afford the impact of the accident.

Once these reporters from the world's major mainstream media have three strengths and two weaknesses in Iraq, the Iraqi government will not be able to explain clearly.

It is better to hand it over to the people of the future security company, and even if something really happens, there is no direct responsibility of the Iraqi government.

on this. The people of the future security company did not refuse. I happily agreed.

When hundreds of reporters stepped off the plane one after another. was tightly protected, and the three buses that had been prepared had already stopped to the side.

In the cargo hold of the passenger plane, after all the belongings carried by these reporters were transferred to the bus, the convoy set off as soon as possible.

Today's Baghdad seems to be more strict because of the arrival of this group of journalists.

In the car, Robert supported his chin with the palm of his hand with a depressed expression, and he was not like other reporters. I kept taking pictures of the city of Baghdad outside.

Because of this place, he is too familiar, as an ace correspondent for the Washington Post, he once worked as a war correspondent on this land for two whole years.

Baghdad, he has almost set foot on this land, and he is probably more familiar with every grass and tree here than the people of Baghdad.

A few years before I got away from the war and returned to the bustling city, I would come to this land destroyed by the war from time to time in my dreams. It's just that this kind of dream is not so pleasant.

Two of his former partners. It was in this city that one of them was kidnapped and finally had his head cut off by an extremist group because the ransom was not paid in time. The video was handed over to him.

The other was in an interview, the powder that was blown up by a roadside bomb was only found in a charred finger, put it in a body box, and sent back to China.

So, for Robert, the land of Iraq, not even a trace of goodwill can be found.

Outside, there are still buildings full of bullet holes, and no one has come to clean up the ruins of the buildings after the explosion.

The indifferent gaze under the scarf is still the same as it was a few years ago.

And this kind of gaze, once encountered alone, is very likely to turn into a fierce light in an instant.

At the thought of returning to war-torn Iraq, Robert greeted his boss's family again.

Looking at his partner next to him, carrying a camera and seemingly devoting himself to photographing the cityscape outside the car window, he was very helpless in his heart.

Coming to Iraq, naturally, was very reluctant, and after a few years, the country and the city have hardly changed.

If I had to say anything had changed, it was the damn weather, it seemed to be getting hotter.

At this moment, there were more than 30 reporters in the car, all of whom were talking about it in various languages.

It upset Robert too, and what really upset him was that he was going to stay here for one night, because that damn press conference didn't officially start tomorrow.

If he could, he really wanted to leave this sad place that he didn't want to come over for the rest of his life.

But he couldn't, and the Washington Post lined up three people this time, one of whom was his partner and a very good photographer.

The other, the shitty interim director, is a quiet-looking and inconspicuous little man.

If this trip is to interview some scenic and holy places, then such a person is at most a related household and a publicly-funded tourist.

But in Iraq, only fools in the world would travel here.

Therefore, Robert is too lazy to guess the identity of his temporary boss, because it is not important.

He just needs to do his own thing, just like he did as a war correspondent, take care of his own affairs every day, and then follow those experienced soldiers, so that he can live a little longer.

The convoy left the most dangerous Baghdad, and the road was very calm, which made Robert feel a little unbelievable.

In his mind, it was no secret that so many journalists came to Baghdad, and those well-informed extremist organizations would certainly not let go of such a good opportunity.

This kind of opportunity is not necessarily aimed at journalists, but only by wreaking havoc in Baghdad when these journalists arrive, and the next day it is estimated that it will spread to every corner of the world's mainstream regions.

Because this group of reporters will not give up the news material that is happening around them, even if it is an explosion, for reporters, it is news.

It's just that today's unusually quiet Baghdad is, in Robert's opinion, very unusual.

However, he didn't care, maybe the law and order in Baghdad has really improved recently.

It's just that Robert also knows very well that this kind of thought is just a very naïve spiritual comfort.

Because ISIS has released more than one message that it will take necessary actions against Future Tech Group during the press conference held by Future Technology Group.

No one thinks ISIS is joking, and there is no need to make such jokes about this terrorist organization that is now being shouted at all over the world.

In Robert's view, the best way to sabotage the first press conference of Future Technology Group is nothing more than to attack this group of reporters.

If there are no reporters, there will be no audience for the press conference, and there is no need to continue.

There is no simpler, more direct and effective way to do it.

At least, that's what Robert himself thinks. (To be continued......)
