Chapter 266: Mission Paris (1)
Chapter 266: Mission Paris (1)
The surroundings were dark, and Wang Cheng's figure seemed to melt into the night, becoming a part of the night
He stood on the bow of a neighboring ship and listened: the slight snoring of the air, the sound of his body turning, grinding his teeth, and the sound of talking in his sleep...... But the sounds were slight, like the whimper of the wind, the murmur of a swallow, or the echo of the sound of running water.
The silence is not dead silence, but this slight voice makes the night seem darker and quieter.
Standing in such silence, Wang Cheng was in a trance for a while, and his thoughts wandered for a while, but immediately he returned to reality, and he felt that he was standing in the bow of the boat, listening to the breath of the night.
The world is asleep.
Wang Cheng silently walked into the entertainment room of the adjacent ship, and the three or two people in the entertainment room staggered, as if sleep had suddenly come, so that before their game was over, people slept on the card table.
Sleep, which means that the cerebral cortex is inhibited, during which the brain's response to external stimuli is reduced and consciousness is temporarily interrupted.
When brain waves were discovered, sleep was redefined, believing that sleep is caused by the inhibition of physical activity by brain computers, resulting in low physiological activity in animals - giving appropriate stimulation can make them reach a state of complete wakefulness.
If this "appropriate stimulus" weakens only a part of the brain and does not reach the level of "wakefulness" - it is dreaming.
Dreaming can be pure dreams - the body does not move, stimulates part of the cerebral cortex responsible for memory and abstract thinking, and uses fantasy and memories to construct a vivid dream.
But it can also awaken parts of the body to participate in the dream - this is sleepwalking.
The human body itself has valves to control brain waves, and under normal circumstances, pure dreaming will also make the motor function move a little - at this time, the human brain waves are in the "brain waves", often with the dream accompanied by turning over, the muscles of the face and fingers (toes) twitch from time to time, breathing accelerates, and blood pressure rises......
Wang Cheng just sent out a large-area brain wave suppression signal, he simulated the brain wave frequency, so that the people around him fell into the brain wave at the same time, which means that the people within more than ten meters of the vicinity fell into a dream at the same time, and everyone showed their ** in the dream.
This practice is very dangerous, and even the "dream maker" who attacked Wang Cheng at the beginning did not dare to attack on such a large area. Because the resonance of brain waves is bidirectional, you make others resonate at the same time, and you yourself are in a state of resonance, and there are multiple resonances in the brain at the same time - it means confusion, it means madness.
At this moment, Wang Chengcheng stood on the verge of madness, and his figure seemed to blend into the darkness around him......
In a trance, he smelled a perfume on the tip of his nose, which was "AndAndis", a flash, as if he had returned to the glitzy streets of Paris - he understood that he was starting to reminisce again, yes, this is a memory rather than a dream, and the reason why Wang Cheng stirred his mind was to use madness to sober himself.
The second "dream within a dream" occurred in Paris, and it was because of this onset that Wang Cheng felt the abnormality of his body.
It was a robbery operation, a robbery of research materials, and a robbery of researchers.
The study of the "God Particle" was carried out in the world's largest particle collider, which is hidden underground, and it is almost impossible to approach it discreetly under the eyes of the world, but every once in a while, researchers will go up to the ground to breathe in the wind and enjoy the holiday life...... The task of Wang Cheng's group is to wait for the arrival of the researchers in Paris, and then approach the scientists unobtrusively, trying to steal the research materials that will be detected, and then ・・・・・・ to create a false appearance of disappearance and secretly hijack the researchers if the research materials do not solve the problems of the company's researchers. …,
Wang Cheng clearly remembers that afternoon, the Champs-Elysées Avenue in Paris, west of the Place de la Concorde.
A faint smell of "AnasAndis" perfume wafted by, which made Wang Cheng stunned for a moment, and for a moment, his mind suddenly returned to Russia, to the secret training of that year - Wang Cheng did not remember how he fell into a dream, but he remembered how he tried to get out of the "dream within a dream". It took him a great deal of effort to wake up from his dream. When he came back to his senses, he found himself gasping against the wall, pale and confused.
He didn't know how long he had been in a "dream within a dream", and now was clearly not the right time to investigate. Because there was a concerned voice in his ear, he asked repeatedly, "Sir, do you need a doctor?" Need to call an ambulance? Sir, are you feeling better? ”
The voice was very soft, with a slight oriental accent, Wang Cheng took a few quick breaths, re-stabilized his heartbeat, and his eyes saw the reality clearly - the person on the other side was an oriental girl, the girl was wearing a lake blue Manga top and shorts, Hwnter boots, carrying a backpack, white headphone cable hanging from her ears, a pair of light blue square-framed resin myopia glasses, and a white Apple mobile phone in her hand
What a simple little girl.
The girl's outfit was not expensive, the front of the blouse looked like a male shirt, but the shoulders of the blouse were gouged out, so from the front, the girl looked like a serious little girl from a church school, and even the buttons of the blouse were buttoned to the neckline; But from the back, this outfit is a playful off-the-shoulder outfit, lively and vibrant.
This girl did not exist alone, there were countless passers-by surrounding Wang Cheng, their eyes revealing concern.
If the dress of the girl opposite is summer, Wang Cheng's dress at this time is the end of autumn; If the little girl opposite is dressed as youthful, Wang Cheng's dress is middle-aged - he wears a black GwyRaver shirt, AA American clothes black pants and black leather shoes, shiny leather shoes, a brown Cswi bag on his shoulder, a platinum Jaeger-LeCoultre watch on his wrist, a black trench coat, black fawn skin gloves, a pair of black-framed myopic glasses on his face, almost no expression, a polite indifference.
This is the role played by Wang Cheng -- a reporter.
As a journalist, it is his duty to inquire, tracking is his means of livelihood, and forcing Diana to death is just a convenient one, this profession can allow him to eavesdrop on ・・・・・・ and track people and force people to death. Of course, you can swagger and ask about the names of the Particle Collider researchers and their whereabouts -- Wang Cheng is now in the Paris "Obelisk" magazine, and his pseudonym is Valentin. Belozovsky.
"Obelisk" is a scientific magazine, and Valentin is a real person in Belarus - he has published a scientific report, and he is well-known in scientific magazines, and half a year ago, Valentin wanted to come to Paris to seek a career and sent a cover letter to "Obelisk" magazine...... Of course, this person is the "shadow man" produced by the company, so Wang Cheng naturally replaced him as a reporter for "Obelisk".
Valentin. Belozovsky was very cold, and in the two weeks he worked at the magazine, he was rarely seen by the people in the magazine, and his resume said that Valentin had been a special soldier - Valentin's occasional accidentally exposed arms and shoulders were tattooed with special forces, which can be vaguely proved. Therefore, his indifference was understood by the magazine staff, and his toned and fierce physique, by the way, was also interpreted as training from the special forces, so he was nicknamed "a soldier" in the magazine.
Such an indifferent person is a little uncomfortable with enthusiasm and concern, so Wang Cheng made a moderate amount of embarrassment and shyness, as well as a barrier of rejection, straightened up and took a few breaths in a row, and replied lightly: "I'm already fine, thank you...... I stayed up late last night and was a little dizzy. ..., the people around gradually dispersed, and the little girl still held Wang Cheng and asked with concern, "Is it really okay?" Do you want me to help you to the chair and do it? ”
At this time, Wang Cheng's body was already straight, he looked at the little girl opposite, calmly and naturally asked, "Japanese?" Koreans, or ......"
"Chinese! My name is Zhou Ran, a second-year student at the University of Vincennes-Saint-Denis (University of Paris VIII, also known as the Vincenne Experimental Center), studying urban planning, and you ・・・・・・ look like ...... Chinese? Zhou Ran enthusiastically stretched out his hand to Wang Cheng.
Valentin. Belozovsky's identity was: a mixed-race Caucasian of Cossack, Tajik, Tatar origin.
In fact, Wang Cheng's outfit doesn't look like an Asian at all, but he has black hair and black eyes, maybe this makes Zhou Ran mistaken, maybe she would rather misrecognize.
"You speak French fluently", Wang Cheng replied in his French with a slight Caucasian accent: "Valentin. Belozovsky is from Belarus and is a journalist for the magazine "Obelisk", oh, I have oriental roots. ”
"Oh", Zhou Ran showed a sudden appearance, and immediately raised his head again and said, "I see that your face is still very pale and there is cold sweat on your forehead, shall I hold you over and sit for a while?" ”
The two of them sat on the chairs in the Concorde Square, Zhou Ran immediately took off his backpack, took out a travel cup from it, poured a cup of hot tea diligently, and urged: "Drink some water・・・・・・
Wang Cheng stabilized his emotions, took the cup expressionlessly, and took a sip of hot tea gently, the tea was lukewarm and just right.
This is this year's fresh green tea with a light taste and a long aftertaste.
This sip of tea made Wang Cheng suddenly think of the perch, the French like to drink black tea, and it is too rare to be able to drink green tea in France. Wang Cheng couldn't help but put the teacup to the end of his nose and sniffed the fragrance of the tea leaves deeply.
"Ha, you look like a typical Chinese", Zhou Ran's crisp voice echoed in his ears: "Only when we Chinese drink tea, do we smell tea like this." It seems that I am not mistaken, you have a Chinese smell in you. ”
This ・・・・・・ long-trained Wang Cheng has long learned to cover up as instinct, but he didn't expect to show a flaw in front of the little girl today, although this flaw is extremely small, but if this matter is exposed, Zhou Ran will be cleared.
Fortunately, this is Wang Cheng, as long as Wang Cheng doesn't want to be monitored, then no one can monitor his words.
Fumbling and pulling out a Davidoff cigarette, Wang Cheng lit it with a platinum lighter, spit out a puff of green smoke, and explained along the topic just now: "That's right, I know a Chinese friend, and that's how he drinks tea... ・・・Thank you for the rescue, you accompany me like this, it doesn't affect you, right? ”
Zhou Ran dangled his legs back and forth on the chair, and shook his head leisurely: "I studied urban planning, I am inspecting the architecture of Paris, shooting street scenes, this work is not important・・・・・・ just now I was walking on the street, and suddenly I had the feeling of "In the Mood for Love", I was thinking about wearing a cheongsam and a small bamboo umbrella, if it rained a little more, it would be more romantic, and suddenly I saw you holding on to the wall, and your face was ugly. Are you feeling better now? ”
"Very good, very good", Wang Cheng picked up half of the cigarette, reached out and flicked the cigarette into the trash can not far away, and stood up expressionlessly and sent an invitation: "Great, I was also planning to shoot some street scenes, just now you accompanied me for a long time, and now I will accompany you." ”
"Okay" Zhou Ran took Wang Cheng's hand out of sight: "Are you really rested?" I'm not in a hurry, we can go slower. ”
Wang Cheng's shopping scene is to familiarize himself with the terrain and feel the environment, this job is not stressful, and his strong memory allows him to remember the places he passes by almost without taking pictures, which makes him seem very leisurely along the way, only occasionally taking out his camera to make a show. Zhou Ran is very serious, every time she goes to a new building, she always has to check her mobile phone to find out the designer of the building, and sometimes she has to look through the architectural drawings, so she stops and stops along the way without any pressure. …,
Halfway through, Wang Cheng saw the "whirlwind", with orange hair, nose rings nailed to his nose, eyebrow rings on his eyebrows, a whirlwind thin like a skeleton painted with skull makeup, wearing a leather jacket with metal buckles, performing street dance on the street, the tape recorder at his feet made loud music, and the whirlwind danced very intoxicatingly...... His role is that of a street artist. This identity is described in a more colloquial Chinese language, just two words: beggar.
The Champs-Élysées is the busiest avenue in Paris, with the most beautiful streetscape and is known as the "world's first street" and a must-see for those who want to visit for vacationers. Wang Cheng saw that the "whirlwind" was already in place, he pretended to appreciate the other party's street dance, and stood there for a while, Zhou Ran took pictures not far away, so he took the opportunity to take the pensive Wang Cheng into the camera...... At this time, Wang Cheng's "nose" voice sounded in his ears: "That woman, is it safe?" ”
"Safe", Wang Cheng replied quietly.
"Nose" again asked for confirmation: "She just took a picture of you, are you sure?" ”
"Convinced!" Wang Cheng was categorical.
"Nose" paused and replied, "Boss, may I ask you what happened just now?" I saw you suddenly leaning against the wall, as if you were going to faint, I thought you had been assassinated, but I didn't notice the anomaly around you? Then this woman came running across the street to help you・・・・・・ are you sure she's safe? According to the regulations, I need to track and confirm her. ”
"Okay, finish your work", Wang Cheng kept admiring the hip-hop dance and replied coldly: "I'm fine, it's just a sudden dizziness." ”
After a slight pause, he asked, "What's new?" ”
Wang Cheng replied: "Their vacation has been postponed...... Let's plan for the long term. The company has cut off all communication with field personnel and asked all field personnel to sink and wait for the next wake-up after completing their mission. I guess the company is attacking with all its might, in order to keep the fire from us, and to cover up our presence, so ・・・・・・"
This is an indefinite mission, soon after Wang Cheng and others arrived in Paris, the company gradually changed the contact information, at this time Wang Cheng slowly realized the company's strategy・・・・・・ he is now leading a team of eight people, this team has two old employees, six new employees. A configuration like this, if not a large proportion of new employees, is enough for a big operation, let alone just a proximity and hijacking mission.
The new contact method is to contact the postal parcel storage, Wang Cheng at the appointed time, to retrieve the parcel sent in a specific mailbox, this parcel contains the company's new instructions, and new dynamics... This old-fashioned method of contact is both sluggish and inefficient, and at the agreed time of contact, Wang Cheng did not receive any information in two contacts, and he immediately understood that the company was planning to change its business mode by arranging the team in this way. From now on, each group exists in isolation, and the company only wakes up when it is on a mission. The purpose of this is to hide the strength of the company, as well as gradually train new people and change blood for the company.
The hijacking business that Wang Cheng accepted this time was not urgent, and the key point of the task was not to attract attention, even if he had done it, no one would notice the traces of his hands. So this is a deep latent mission, an indefinite mission, as long as the researcher does not make a major scientific breakthrough in a short period of time, the company will not even ask Wang Cheng to take action. And Wang Cheng's team members are fully matched, perhaps to facilitate Wang Cheng to accept other handy tasks during the incubation period, so as to train newcomers.
In this operation, the roles of "Whirlwind" and "Nose" are street watchdogs, and Lily has entered the academy as a professor as a scholar, while the rest of them have also entered their respective roles and waited
The crowd on the Champs-Élysées was endless, and for a moment, Wang Cheng's nose wafted through the smell of perfume, and his spirit was a little trance-like, at this time, he only heard the voice of the "nose" continuing to float in his ears: "Boss, if we are injured or sick during this period, how can we seek support?" Wang Cheng casually threw a banknote into the begging bowl of "Whirlwind", and did not look back at the "nose" beside him who also pretended to enjoy hip-hop dance, and said as he left: "Put the banknote away, there is an address on it, go and get your nano blood." ”
Well, after replacing part of the nano blood, the sequelae is that it is necessary to continuously replenish new nano blood like taking drugs in order to obtain sufficient physical strength and energy. As the team leader, Wang Cheng has the right to distribute rations - presumably as a means for the company to control its employees.
And now, the company has not been in contact for two weeks - who has the upper hand in that firefight?
Zhou Ran greeted the expressionless Wang Cheng and took Wang Cheng's arm and asked, "What did you say to that beggar just now?" ”
"I'm complimenting him", Wang Cheng asked Zhou Ran to hold himself and walked down the street. He felt that Zhou Ran was holding him, and he had no other meaning except for the feeling of intimacy.
This is Paris, the capital of romance, where men and women hold each other for a very common time, and do not contain any ** ingredients.
"Okay, I've done my mission for today, I've taken hundreds of photos, enough to tidy up in a week, what are we going to do next?" Zhou Ran asked easily: "Can your physical strength support it?" If you think it's okay, let's have dinner, I think you're a person with a story, and you've been with me for so long, and you never ask more, which makes me curious, and I want to know more about you. ”
Wang Chengshun pointed to the restaurant not far away, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of his nose, and he beckoned, "Go there." ”
After ordering a simple dinner, Wang Cheng refused Zhou Ran's request for AA system, and Zhou Ran didn't insist on it, she happily raised her knife and fork and began to enjoy a simple dinner, after the two dishes went down, Zhou Ran slowed down the pace of eating, and asked with interest: "Let's talk about it, tell me about your Chinese friends." ”
Wang Cheng shrugged his shoulders: "It's very simple, he's here to do business, we are neighbors, we often share after-dinner time together, and we also share drinks and beer, I've seen him drink tea, it's as simple as that." ”
Zhou Ran smiled: "You, don't you always like to simplify complex things?" ”
"Tell me about you", Wang Cheng asked leisurely.
"Well, it's a long story, I'm in my second year of college, but this is my third year in Paris, I went to a preparatory class for a year before going to university, it's hard, French is so hard to learn, I can memorize 30,000 words before I dare to speak, so the first year is a nightmare for me・・・・・・ Oh, it's the same now, the textbooks are full of professional vocabulary, I just climbed the threshold of conversation, looking at those words is like reading a book from heaven, I can only study desperately......
I was originally going to major in luxury management, but when I looked over, I found that almost all of the students in this major were Chinese, and there were no other people in the whole class, so I had to change my major halfway..."
Zhou Ran said while eating, and smiled apologetically at the end: "Look, I treat you as a compatriot, and I keep nagging・・・・・・ my conversation just now is okay, right?" You don't know, in order to practice my speaking, I pick up strangers when I get the chance...... In order to practice our oral English, our classmates also went to find a local to share a house......"
Wang Cheng took the opportunity to talk: "You can also find me to share a house." ”
It's just a favor, Wang Cheng doesn't feel embarrassed.
Zhou Ran smiled brightly: "How embarrassing?" ”
At this time, the well-dressed "nose" strolled in, sat not far from Wang Cheng and began to order, several diners checked out and got up to leave the restaurant, and when Wang Cheng passed by, Wang Cheng suddenly smelled a burst of perfume in his nose, he was in a trance for a moment, and immediately became alert - yes, hypnosis needs a trigger, or a deep stimulus signal. When the hypnotist implants this trigger into the recipient's mind, the recipient will automatically enter a hypnotic state every time he or she is exposed to the trigger in the future.
Perfume scent, the trigger used by dreammakers is a specific perfume. The scent can be so faint that it is difficult for ordinary people to smell it, but as soon as the smell is touched by the subject, they will fall into a daze and fall into a dreamscape - this is why Wang Cheng has just lost his mind on the glitzy streets of Paris.
What is the specific scent?
