No.126 The town of Drum

Removing bullets is not an easy task, and even professional surgeons take a long time to learn the techniques of removing bullets and suturing them.

Although Victoria is not a professional surgeon, she is a professional killer, and her understanding of human muscles is not inferior to that of professional surgeons.

Frank was shot in the shoulder, and although the bullet did not hurt the bone, it remained in the muscle.

In order to ensure that the arm could be used flexibly, Victoria did not even give Frank a local anesthesia, but just made him drink a few sips of high wine, and directly cut his shoulder with a scalpel and removed the bullet as quickly as possible.

Sterilization, dissecting the wound, removing the bullet, examining the fragments, debridement, and then stitching it up – she completed the minor operation very quickly, and despite her age, her hand was still very stable and there was little to no pain.

The mushroom-shaped, blood-stained bullet was thrown into a crystal clear cup by surgical forceps.

Victoria tore open a piece of the dressing to stop the bleeding, pressed it against the wound on Frank's shoulder, and bandaged it before she began to pack up the used medical devices and put them back in the medical kit box.

"You seem to be more comfortable with this kind of retirement life than I thought you would, Victoria."

Frank looked at his old friend who was busy with it, and the expression on his face seemed to be a little envious.

He spent half a year trying to adapt himself to life after retirement, but life was always unsatisfactory, and he had experienced a lot in the past, and it was very difficult to get out of those things.

He even often wakes up from nightmares filled with things he's been through in the past, like a place full of enemies or a battlefield full of bullets, and the stress can take Frank out of breath.

"Well...... I'm a bit of a fan of retirement, when I have more time to spare, I can do baking and stuff like that, but sometimes I take on some personal jobs to release stress, you know, Frank, and sometimes we still need to decompress. ”

Looking at Frank lying on the sofa, Victoria showed a bright smile, Frank was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood why Victoria was so relaxed, it turned out that she had never really been far away from that world.

"So, that girl, Sarah—tell me how about her?"

Victoria set the medical equipment box aside on the table, sat down on the couch across from Frank, and looked at Frank with curiosity.

"She's more ...... than I thought Be a little more enthusiastic. ”

Thinking back to what happened in the CIA and how Sarah looked along the way, Frank also didn't know how to speak.

He originally thought that this woman would allow him to achieve a truly peaceful life, but he did not expect that now he would start a new adventurous life with her.

After a short conversation, Frank and Victoria went downstairs, but as soon as they arrived in the dining room, he heard a bad news from Joe's mouth, but then Joe gasped for breath and almost tripped Frank over his own foot.

"Frank, there is basically no useful information in the data, the Guatemalan operation report has been blacked out, but it is not completely unfounded, Chen reporter's list includes us, there are eleven people involved in the delivery of packages, but one person is not on the list."

"It's a man named Alexander Dunning, he's not on the list, and he's not dead."

Lin Cheng took over the conversation and threw the information of one person in the file on the table in front of Frank.

"I know him, the president of Browning Orvis, a defense contractor, or rather an arms dealer."

Frank glanced at the profile, but before he could speak, it was Victoria behind Frank who suddenly spoke.

"Someone is protecting him, or he has a connection to the people behind the scenes."

Frank said with certainty.

After a unanimous vote from everyone, they decided to meet the Defence Arms Contractor for a while.

But this kind of existence, there must be its own security team around it, and it is more likely that there are CIA people secretly protecting it, so it is impossible to contact the other party directly, and you must find a way.

In the end, Joe, the eldest blackhead, made a very constructive suggestion - disguise the past and meet in the open, for which they specially forged the identity of a Libyan warlord and sent an invitation to meet with Browning Ovis.

Lin Cheng did not participate in the preparatory stage of the mission, but just watched from the side.

God knows how many channels these elderly agents and killers have, and they even got an old Mercedes in the 70s of the last century for this operation, which is not only legal on the road, but also carries the Libyan flag.

Early the next morning, the classic car carried Joe, who was disguised as a veteran Libyan warlord, Frank, disguised as a driver, and Marven, a bodyguard, on the road together, while Lin Cheng drove another car and followed behind them with the ladies.

Alexander Dunning is located in a small town called Drum, in upstate New York.

In late autumn and October, some parts of the northern United States bordering Canada have begun to snow due to the influence of cold air.

Victoria recorded everyone's clothing sizes, and then took Sarah and Elena into the city to help buy winter clothes, and although Lin Cheng didn't need it, he was forced to arrange it.

In the small city of Drum, which is covered in silver, everyone found a motel to settle down temporarily, and in the room of the motel, several large men sat around the sofa, looked at the map on the table, and began to discuss the specific plan of the operation.

"Here is a map of the manor, the manor is not big, there are only a few buildings, but according to the results of the on-site investigation, it is not the CIA who is secretly monitoring and protecting Alexander Dunning, but the FBI, they have set up an observation point in the northwest corner of the manor, and we have to find a way to bypass them."

Frank spoke slowly, pointing to the location of the observation point he had drawn with a black marker on the map.

"This disguised identity is a Libyan warlord, Lin, your Asian face appears in the team too abruptly, so, your task is to work with Victoria to set up sniper points in the front and back of the main building of the manor, to block the enemy reinforcement that may occur if the mission fails."

Joe patted Lin Cheng lightly on the shoulder, and circled two high positions on the map that were perfect for gathering points.

The door of the hotel was suddenly opened, and Victoria and Sarah, who had changed into white down jackets, walked in with large bags and small bags, followed by Elena, who also had an extra white down jacket.

And the clothes they brought back were also white down jackets of the corresponding size.

Because the operation was to be carried out in the snow and ice, white was a natural camouflage color.
