Chapter 62: Mr. Lieutenant Colonel
I listened to Xiao Nan's low sobbing, hesitated, and turned on the recording function of the phone and put it next to the phone. Then he said to her: "Xiao Nan, your brother was injured and is now being rescued, do you want to say anything to her?" I recorded it on the phone and showed it to him. ”
Xiao Nan cried even more, and I suddenly realized that Xiao Nan was a mute girl and couldn't speak. I said, "Can you play a song for my brother?" ”
"Brother, I love you." Xiao Nan suddenly spit out these four words, and her voice was very light and smart, as if she was a yellow warbler. I was shocked to see that she was not dumb. I was shocked, but Xiao Nan was still crying and said, "Brother, you must persevere, Xiao Nan...... You're the only one. "The crying girl had only said so much that she could no longer speak, and I could imagine her tears on the other end of the phone. How worried I should be, how sorry I see, and how much I love the third child.
I said to her, "Xiao Nan, you must be good, the third child will definitely get better." ”
"Hmm." Xiao Nan sobbed.
I put away the phone recording, thought about it, and made another call to Sun Xiaoqing. The moment the phone was connected, Sun Xiaoqing also looked anxious, and I said calmly: "I'm fine, Qingqing, do me a favor, take care of Xiao Nan in the past two days, the third child has an accident, I just told her." ”
"Well, be careful, too." Sun Xiaoqing said calmly.
I hung up the phone, took the recording of the call, and went back to the ward. Give the recording to the doctor and have the doctor loop it around the room. Perhaps at this time, what the third child needs most is this kind of willpower encouragement. There are no miracles in this world, but there is a will of steel. The sun shone on the hospital bed, looking at the third child covered in scars, I secretly clenched my fists and said, "Come on." ”
……
Liu Weiwei came to my side and handed me a bottle of water and a box of lunches: "Let's eat some." ”
I nodded, took the lunch box and devoured it. During the meal, Liu Weiwei told me about the current situation in Syria and the attitude of the US side. The riots in Damascus and the killing of journalists have not been exposed by the world's media, and there has been no news of the air battles in the Mediterranean. What was buried under the Umayyad Grand Mosque was not found, and the only Muslim elder who knew about it was shot by the mob during the riots and died.
The reason for the death of the respected elder was simple, and I gave him $10,000. Then his little apprentice saw it, and his little apprentice revealed it to the organizers of the riot. He was then accused of betraying Jehovah, and the mob hung him on a shelf and cut his flesh with a knife. When the riots dissipated, this respected old man became a meal for the wild dogs.
I swallowed the fragrant lunch, poured a bottle of water, and said to Liu Weiwei: "So, no one knows that we have been to the Great Mosque?" ”
Liu Weiwei nodded and said to me, "This is good news, but it is also bad news. ”
I pondered for a while, looked at Liu Weiwei and said, "It seems that we are still embattled now, where did Mia go?" ”
"I gave him a commission yesterday, and he went out to drink."
As soon as Liu Weiwei's words fell, a group of people carried a person covered in blood into the emergency center, and I could tell at a glance that this person was Mia. Mia was not unconscious, he looked very scary, but it was all other people's blood, Mia saw me, frowned and joked: "Dude, I don't look very weak." ”
I frowned and said, "What's going on?" ”
Mia turned her head to look at an American in a suit behind her, and said, "Ask him, he saved me, I'm going to get a few stitches on my ass now, you know, it's very unpleasant to be kicked in the ass." ”
I turned my head to look at the American Mia was pointing at. This is a very traditional American, with a well-dressed suit but a bohemian side, and the resolute lines of his face indicate that the American is a politician, but some of the loose hair indicates that the man is a soldier. He was definitely an officer, as you could tell from his muscular arms.
The man held out his hand to me: "Henry? Howard. ”
I frowned and reached out to shake him: "You should know my Chinese name, I don't have an English name yet." ”
Howard smiled lightly, looked at Liu Weiwei and said to me: "Mr. Hao, I don't think this is the scene of the conversation, I am interested in inviting you to have a drink now, is it okay?" ”
"I'm happy to accompany you." I smiled.
Howard took me out of the hospital and into his Land Rover. Howard took me to a place with a nice view, sat down and asked for two whiskeys. Then he smiled and said: "The minions of the opposition want to arrest Mr. Mia, and I happened to pass by and came to my aid." Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll never see that money-hungry Russian again. ”
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "It's better not to see him, I just owe him the money for the car." ”
Howard Haruha smiled and said, "I think you should know who I am." ”
I knew that he was about to get to the point, so I smiled and said, "I don't know about it." ”
Howard was not angry either, but introduced himself: "I am the head of Shaw Air Force Base in Jordan. ”
"It turned out to be Mr. Colonel." I feigned surprise.
Howard got straight to the point: "I think you should know where that thing is, and we need to know where that thing is now." I don't think you want the CIA people to invite you to tea, you should have heard of their methods, and what is said on TV is just a drop in the bucket in reality. ”
My head was spinning, and if the contents of the Umayyad Mosque were given to Howard, the opposition and government forces would send someone to assassinate me. But if I don't hand it over to Howard, the first person to come to the door must be the CIA, and even Howard in front of me may torture me to extract a confession, and I have to find a compromise to save my life so that I can escape back to China.
Although I know that even if I flee back to China, it is not necessarily safe.
After pondering for a long time, I said to Howard, "Do you need to show a little sincerity if you want this thing?" Mr. Lieutenant Colonel?
Howard seemed to know that I would say that, and he laughed and said, "You just mention it." ”
I calmly said: "My friend is seriously injured, and I want to send him to Washington for treatment, provided that my friend's injuries are healed." Then I would like Mr. Lieutenant Colonel to arrange for me to get a plane back to Shanghai, provided that there are no bombs on board, and I don't want to go headlong into the sea. ”
"Yes." Howard smiled and said, "Then please tell me, where is our little darling?" ”
I smiled helplessly and said, "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, before eating the buffet, you always have to pay the money first, right?" ”
Howard laughs and says, "I always like to eat first." ”
I said in a tough tone, "This time I will follow my rules." ”
Howard shrugged his shoulders in agreement.
