Chapter 63: Back to the United States
(Click, collection, recommendation, attention, dissemination, all kinds of support (^_^))
The wait didn't seem too boring, and Grant had time to think seriously about his next move. The action here does not mean continuing to save the poor in Afghanistan, after all, as long as the armed leader can be successfully eliminated tonight, there will be nothing to do with Grant here. He was thinking about what to do when he returned to the United States.
Returning to the United States was not a rash decision. If he wants to go to the Americas to "meddle in his business", it is most convenient to be stationed in the United States. As Nadim said, the most important thing to do in this kind of work is networking. If he chooses another country, Mexico, Brazil or something, he will almost be blinded. The establishment of a network is not something that can be completed in a short period of time, and it may not be effective in a year or two.
Of course, even in the United States, his connections are not necessarily widespread. No matter how many people he knew before, and how vast his circle of friends was, they had all been almost completely useless since the day he was wanted by S.H.I.E.L.D. But the United States has one "advantage" that other countries cannot match: as long as you have money, you can do anything in this country. **Arson is a small matter, these can also be in other countries, but many other aspects? Even if there is that manpower, there may not be that technology there. For example, find some professionals to help you check your physical condition, and keep everything confidential; Or maybe you can make a passable outfit......
The most important point is that among so many countries in North and South America, the United States is the one that needs to be saved the most. All kinds of shootings, all kinds of black-white conflicts, all kinds of gang fights, all kinds of everything. Coupled with more than two decades of life, Grant is fairly familiar with some aspects of the country. That's it, even if it's a risk.
So, where to start.
Before Grant could come up with a charter, Nadim returned. Counting the time, only ten or so minutes have passed.
"What's wrong?" Grant held Nadim in his hands and asked eagerly, "What happened?" β
"I almost didn't come back!" At this time, Nadimu was still in shock, "That guy took out something similar to Zippo, and just froze the other person with a casual touch." At that time, I was in the ground under their feet, showing half of my head, and as a result, I was also affected a little, and I felt numb. Paralyzed. β
Seeing Nadimu's appearance, Grant hurriedly handed over a bottle of water. Then while looking at the other party and being shocked, he waited for the other party to solve his doubts.
"Wait, take your time." Which guy is that? And, 'the other person'? β
Just as Nadim drank half a bottle of water in one gulp and was about to speak, gunshots rang out from the camp. Grant looked up his binoculars and saw that all the militants in his line of sight had been brought down by the new gang.
What's going on, the two groups won't fight even if they're not allies, right? No, it's completely one-sided!
"Look!" Shoving the binoculars into Nadimu's arms, Grant looked serious, "Then tell me what the hell happened!" β
Through the binoculars, Nadim, who had just recovered a little, saw the scene of the group leaving. The telescope wasn't magnified enough to see the rest of the story, but he was sure that the militants lying on the ground weren't sleeping. And thereβthe clumps of color he could still tellβthere were no black-clad guys on the ground!
"Okay, okay." Taking a deep breath, Nadim spoke solemnly, "Listen to me, it's Obadistan that those militants kidnapped Tony Stark!" β
"Obadistan? The name...... Uh, you mean that Obadistan from Stark Industries? Grant frowned, "What's going on, Stan has always been an important helper for two generations of Stark. Without him, Stark Industries would not be where it is today. Now Stan thinks Stark is in the way? β
"Maybe that's the case. You know, as an arms dealer, Stark Industries has reached its limit. Stan used to need two generations of Stark's creativity and technology, but now he doesn't ......"
"No, it's not even close. It's true that Stark Industries is ahead of its peers, but it's not enough to throw the others behind. And Stark Industries is far from the extreme, in addition to being an arms dealer, it can have more influence...... But! Speaking of which, Grant finally remembered the topic at hand, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Tell me more details. β
βoKγβ Nadim nodded, "The first thing we said was that the armed leader pointed to the scar on his face and told Stan that it was thanks to Stark, and Stan replied, 'If you had killed him earlier, you wouldn't have lost face'. You can judge from that. Then they went into the tent and said they wanted to see some weapons, and I followed them and sneaked in. Originally, they were referring to the suit of iron armor that Stark had abandoned in the desert. The armed leader says that if Stan promises to give him a dozen or twenty of those armors, he will send them as samples along with the drawings. As a result, Stan takes out an object to immobilize the armed leader, causing the other to bleed from the ear canal. He himself didn't get hit at all because he wore an earplug or something like that, but it was definitely much more advanced than the earbuds. Unfortunately, I was also affected by hiding under the table, and I almost couldn't come back. β
Hearing what Nedimu said, Grant immediately turned around: "Quick, get in the car!" β
"What's wrong. Are we going to catch up? What about that armed leader, he seems to be still ...... Didn't ......."
"Boom"!
Looking at the ruins of the collapsed tent in the camp, with fire and smoke coming out, and at Grant, who had just put the bazooka down, Nadimu swallowed.
"Arming the chiefs is not the point right now." As he started the car and beckoned Nadimu to get into the car, Grant said, "I misunderstood Tony Stark. Stan is the one who sells the weapons, he's the culprit, and of course we're going to visit the main one. β
"So you're going to kill him." Paying attention to the direction of the vehicle, Nedim spoke again, "There are more than twenty people on Stan's side, all of them seem to be elites, but they are not comparable to the previous militants. Besides, I watched their suV...... Even if we do, we can't help it, and I don't think we can catch up. β
Grant pulled the car over.
"You're right." After thinking for a while, Grant said, "We need to remind Tony Stark. β
Nadim nodded in agreement. Then a question came to the two of them.
"But how? Ordinary phone calls will be rejected or even blocked. You can't go straight to Stark, or you'll be considered crazy. β
Nadim was right. Grant thought about it again. After more than half a minute, he spoke again: "I have a solution, but it may not work." However, there is another option that can be implemented as a last resort. In this matter, Tony Stark is the focus. Since Obadistan is determined to get rid of Stark, and has already obtained the Iron Armor samples and blueprints, there will definitely be a battle with Stark. As long as you keep an eye on Stark, you can follow the development of the situation and intervene if necessary. β
"Is this just a last resort? I'm curious what you're talking about. Listening to Grant's words, Nadim breathed a sigh of relief, "How are you going to start?" β
"I need to go back to the U.S. right away."
"'Me'?"
"Yes, just me. You continue to stay here. Grant smiled, "That's my territory, remember." β
Nadim also smiled, "Then you need to ask Theron for help." β
Hearing this, Grant's face darkened suddenly: "You can call...... Please. β
Grant had already seen Theron's strength and his penchant for teasing people during the previous video conference, and he really didn't want to experience it again.
