Chapter 265: Arms Dealers
"Hahahaha! You're so humorous! But in the slums, all sorts of weird things happen, and changing your sexual orientation is nothing compared to that. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info In short, in order to live, the people there are willing to do almost anything, didn't I just embark on the road of crime under your temptation?"
With that, Helena took out a box of women's cigarettes from her pocket, took one out and lit it for herself, and took a deep breath.
Just when she wanted to take a second puff, Lu Li suddenly stretched out her hand, snatched the cigarette, snuffed it out, and threw it into the trash can next to her.
Seeing her cigarette cross a graceful parabola and land precisely in the trash can, Helena immediately shouted, "Hey, why are you pinching my cigarette?"
"Smoking is bad for your health, especially for women. I tempted you to sin, but I did not incite you to smoke. Also, this is a public place, and if you don't want to attract the police, it's best to be quiet and not do anything that might attract attention. Lu Li said as he glanced at the patrol officer not far away from the corner of his eye.
South Beach is one of Miami's most important tourist attractions, and there are more than three times as many police officers here as there are other places, and a policeman with a gun can be seen almost every 50 meters or so.
He didn't want a small cigarette to cause any accidents in tonight's meeting.
"Oh, shit, sorry, my bad!"
Helena instantly realized what a mistake she had made, and hurriedly stuffed the cigarette case into her jacket pocket, the reason why she wanted to smoke just now was to use nicotine to relieve her anxiety and anxiety.
After all, normal people will inevitably be a little nervous when they come into contact with international arms dealers for the first time, although she pretends to be calm on the surface, but she is still very afraid in her bones.
Lu Li undoubtedly noticed the girl's slightly trembling hands, and immediately smiled and comforted: "Relax, today is just a meeting, even if the other party has other thoughts, it is impossible to rashly act without seeing the money." Let's continue with the topic just now, what is the origin of this arms dealer?"
Helena licked her lips, took a deep breath, and replied in a low voice: "I only know that the other party's name is Alexander, it seems to be a Ukrainian, according to the information provided by my ex-boyfriend's ex-boyfriend, he seems to have been providing guns and ammunition to several militia groups active in Florida, as for the rest, I don't know very well." ”
"Arms for the militia?!" a hint of surprise appeared on Lu Li's face that could not be concealed.
You must know that the militia mentioned here does not refer to the National Guard, which has a government formation, but refers to a private armed organization established by the people, although they call themselves patriotic militia, but in fact they are doing things that are against the government.
In the United States, there are probably hundreds of militias of all kinds, including more than 70 neo-Nazis, more than 90 Ku Klux Klan, and 40 skinheads, among which the most powerful is the "Patriot Militia," which has 100,000 armed members and more than 10 million supporters in more than 20 states.
The people of most countries probably imagine that there is such a large armed force of opposition in the most powerful capitalist country in the world.
Generally speaking, in order to survive, these militias either accept the support of certain domestic and foreign political forces, or engage in kidnapping, extortion, assassination, terrorist attacks, drug trafficking and other activities to accumulate funds, and most of them are aimed at promoting racism and hatred of people of color.
If an arms dealer dares to provide weapons to the US militia and has not been arrested by the relevant departments, there are only two possibilities, one is that he himself has some kind of ulterior connection with the US government, and the other is that he has the support of other countries behind him, such as Russia, which has been fighting with NATO.
Either way, it means that trading with such a person requires a lot of risk.
Just as Helena opened her mouth and was about to say something, a black Lincoln SUV suddenly stopped in front of the bench, followed by two strong men in black suits who stepped out of the car.
Without saying a word, they set up Lu Li and stuffed it into the back seat, and Helena was completely ignored.
"Hey, guys, it's easy to scare that beautiful girl with the way you look. Lu Li didn't try to resist, and made a joke casually.
But unfortunately, the two strong men obviously had no sense of humor, they closed the car door with expressionless faces, left Helena and waited in place, and then restarted the car, and soon disappeared at the end of the road.
After about fifteen minutes of driving along the long road of South Beach, the car finally stopped near an open-air bar, and the guy in charge of the car walked silently towards a table not far away, and the other began to search Lu Li in all directions, not to mention his mobile phone, gold bars, cash and other belongings, and even his clothes, pants, shoes and socks were taken off and taken away.
All he had left was a pair of boxer briefs and an adventurer crystal around his neck at the moment.
After another two or three minutes, the closed rear door was finally opened, and two bodyguards and a white man in his forties came up from outside.
The white man, with short brown hair, a red T-shirt, white shorts, and a pair of beach sandals on his feet, looked like a harmless uncle next door, and there was no trace of the momentum of a dead businessman.
When the two met, the first thing he did was greet him with a smile: "Good evening, distinguished guest, I am very sorry for the rude treatment you have received. But for the sake of safety, I had to take some precautions to ensure that our conversations were not overheard by third parties. After all, with the rapid development of technology and the emergence of various eavesdropping methods, I have to be careful. ”
Lu Li spread his hands nonchalantly: "It's okay, Mr. Alexander, it's an interesting experience to meet like this, isn't it? If you don't mind, can we officially start talking about business now?"
"Hehehehehe! You're such a generous customer! Yes, we can now officially start business. With that, Alexander turned and gave the driver a look.
The latter understood, quickly started the car, and began to speed down the Miami road.
Looking at the high-speed moving night scene outside the window, Lu Li couldn't help but sigh secretly, the other party was really cautious to the extreme.
First, he left all the things on his body that might have hidden eavesdropping devices at the door of the bar just now, and then kept changing lanes suddenly to confirm whether there were people or vehicles behind him.
Under a series of countermeasures, not to mention that there is no one behind him to follow at all, even if there is, it will be discovered immediately.
Such a professional performance made Lu Li more and more sure that the identity of the other party was by no means as simple as an ordinary arms dealer......
