Chapter 33: The Famous Louie
Elena didn't think Louie's assurances were useful, but she took Louie with her to meet Hobbs. Her idea is very simple, maybe the other party sees herself as so unreliable, and actually brings her boyfriend over when she is working, so she doesn't need to be used directly?
Arriving at the scene in a rented car, Elena finds Luke Hobbs, who has been named to be her translator.
The agent from the Diplomatic Security Service was tall and strong, very visible in the crowd, and was easy to find.
When she led Louis across the blockade and came to the tall Hobbes, the other party took the initiative to greet him: "Officer Neves, wait a long time." ”
"You're looking for me?"
"That's right!" Hobbes didn't look up, most of his attention was on the materials in his hand, just glancing slightly at Louis next to him.
"Can I ask why?" Elena still didn't want to take the job: "My smile isn't that bright. ”
Hobbes put down the papers in his hand and explained why he had chosen Elena. He checked Elena's files and information and knew that she joined the police force because her husband was shot dead, and that her family had no signs of being bought, so he chose her.
As for other translations provided by the local police, Hobbstone Correspondence was not.
Only then did Hobbes turn to Louis next to him: "Who are you?"
"Louis Hunt, just wanted to see who was so discerning and asked Elena to come over by name. Louis smiled kindly, pretending to be a very ordinary young man.
His acting skills were clearly substandard, and Luke Hobbes frowned when he heard his name: "Louis Hunt, the bounty hunter, are you actually in Rio?"
Louis was shocked, he didn't expect that even Hobbs knew that the identity created by the identity card was so influential?
What Hobbes said next surprised Louis even more.
"It's not going to be the same as Paris again, is it?"
"What Paris?" Elena stood next to the two, feeling neglected. Listening to the tone of Hobbes's voice, what was Louis known for in Paris before?
Fortunately, Hobbes's subordinate Chato walked over at this time and drew Hobbes's attention.
"Good news and bad news......"
"You know I like good news......"
Chato then told what he had found, and he looked around along the railroad line and found the wheel marks in the east and west directions, but he couldn't track them any further once he was on the road.
At this point, there seems to be no clue, but Elena takes advantage of the locals to provide a new direction of investigation, and if it goes well, they will find Dom and Brian.
Louis didn't talk much for a while, and stood quietly by pretending to be an ornament, thinking about what Hobbes had just said: Like that time in Paris?
He had only been to Paris once and worked with Brian Mills to eliminate the Albanian gangs.
At that time, in order to find a reasonable reason, he said that he had to deal with the group of Albanians after taking the job, could it be that the identity card directly recorded that experience in his resume?
In addition to this, the other possibility is that hurricane rescue and the Fast and Furious things are happening in the same world...... How is that possible?
"Mixed together?"
It didn't seem like this possibility, he remembered the phone that Brian gave him back then, maybe he could give it a call, at least to know what was going on?
Here he pondered quietly, but Elena would not let him go: "What did you do in Paris?"
"It's just a trivial little thing......"
"The complete elimination of the entire Albanian criminal group is not a trivial matter. Hobbes definitely did it on purpose, he pinched his waist and stood in front of Louie: "It's definitely not a coincidence that you appear here, you have a new job?"
"No, it's just a coincidence, I'm here for a vacation in Rio, and if you hadn't called Elena over, I'd still be enjoying this wonderful vacation......"
Elena crossed her arms and tilted her head to look at Louie, Louie said more than once that he had come to Rio for work, and then suddenly changed his words? Louie's behavior made her a little unhappy, and she felt that she was being used. It's just that the relationship between the two is good now, and they didn't dismantle the stage on the spot.
Hobbes stared at Louis for a few seconds, and suddenly a possibility came to mind: "You have your eye on Dominic Toretto and Brian O'Connor?"
Elena didn't know that these two people were involved in this case, and after hearing the name that Louis often mentioned, the fire in her heart burned even more.
"Ahem! Actually, I don't have much interest in Torretto and his companions. It's a pity that no one believes his explanation, and neither Hobbes nor Elena has a 'you keep acting, I'll watch' attitude, so Louis can only say, "Why don't I go back to the apartment first?"
"You can't go anywhere, I'll go to those two guys next, I won't give you and me a chance to rob people, you follow us...... Wilkes!" Hobbes called out to another subordinate, "Keep an eye on this guy, even if he goes to the bathroom, you follow him, and never let him out of your sight." ”
Louis spread his hands, he had no problem with this, anyway, he didn't have anything to do next, just quietly watched the play, watching the two protagonists Dom and Brian toss and turn the world upside down, and attracted all Reyes's attention.
His original plan was to wait for Reyes to send his men out to deal with the two protagonists, and find an opportunity to kill the underworld overlord.
The backup plan is to follow the plot, and when the final drag race battle comes, launch an attack on Reyes's car - compared to Reyes who stays in his lair or in the police station, Reyes, who is riding in a car and frantically chasing the two protagonists, is undoubtedly much easier to deal with.
Either way, he just had to be careful not to be robbed of his head by Hobbes.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're going to raid those two hiding places with arms, right?" Regardless of Hobbes's reaction, Louis made his own request: "I don't need a weapon, but you have to give me body armor, right?"
"Wilkes will help you prepare!" Hobbes didn't object, the clues provided by Elena were very important, if it went well, they would be able to find Brian and Dom's hiding place immediately, and the next thing was armed raids and captures, and there would inevitably be conflicts, and he was not a big villain who took the lives of 'innocent passers-by' seriously, and simply met Louie's request.
Commanding his men to prepare their cars and weapons, and then following the clues, they quickly locked on the slum where Brian and Torreto were hiding, located on a hillside.
After driving here, the car could not continue to move forward, and the road behind it was very narrow and winding, and everyone had to choose to get out of the car and walk forward.
"Everyone, bring all the equipment!" The body armor and weapons were all loaded, and Wilkes handed Louis a spare body armor.
Elena doesn't care, she has her own body armor and weapons.
"Do you have a spare pistol?" Louis put on his body armor and performed what it means to be on the spot, Wilkes turned his head speechlessly and ignored him, while Elena next to him smiled wryly.
After Hobbes finished putting on his equipment, he deliberately walked over and stared at Louis for a while: "You'd better not have any superfluous thoughts. ”
Louis continued to spread his hands and said that he was just a 'passerby' of the onlookers, and then quietly followed the group, as if he really had no special thoughts.
Elena looked at Louie several times, and she felt that Louie must be trying to do something when she came with her: "What are you going to do?"
"Even if I have any plans, I can't say it, this guy is right next to me, won't this guy be heard if I say it now?" Louie's words made Wilkes, who was staring at him, turn his head and pretend he wasn't listening.
Are Hobbes's men ...... comics?
"Your target is that Dominic Toretto, right?" Elena glanced at Wilkes next to her, she didn't think it was a big deal, in this situation, Dominic Toretto would definitely be caught by Hobbs, Louie should not be able to grab so many heavily armed agents.
"No!" Louie's real target was Reyes, a goal that was inconvenient to say right now. And he knew that the group would not be able to catch Dom and Brian in this raid.
Before Hobbes and the others walked to Dom and Brian's hideout, Reyes's men had already taken the lead to the hiding place where the protagonists were, and frantically chased the two male and female protagonists who had escaped.
Hobbs's team is a third party who has just made the situation in the area more chaotic and failed to catch the protagonists.
Just as the team was slowly advancing, there was a sudden burst of gunfire ahead, and Hobbes immediately realized that the situation was not right, and ordered his men to outflank him.
Unlike the original story, he did not let his guard down on Louie, and let Wilkes keep an eye on Louis and protect Elena here, and rushed in the direction where the gunshots came from.
Elena looked around speechlessly, she really wanted to rush along, but Hobbes, as the commander of the operation, did not allow it, while Wilkes was watching from the side.
They didn't wait where they were, but continued to walk slowly, and Elena noticed a figure flashing in the path next to her, and when she was hesitating whether to rush forward, Louis had already rushed out first.
"Damn, didn't you say you wouldn't get into trouble?" Elena expressed her dissatisfaction while chasing, but Louis in front of her shouted without looking back: "I just want to help!"
Taking advantage of the momentum of the forward rush, he raised his foot and kicked over a masked guy with a gun, and then punched another masked gangster, and then stood there, looking at the tall blonde man in front of him.
"It's Louis Hunt!"
