Chapter 638: Clues, Preparing for Action
South America, 12 p.m., a suite in a hotel in Rio de Janeiro.
"And new buyers?"
After Chenelle finished speaking, Winslow asked with some surprise:
"What's that guy's name?"
"He's a native here, and the name is too long for me to remember."
Chenelle shook her head and said:
"But there's Leonardo in his name, and we can just call him that."
Because of historical reasons, the Ba X people use Portuguese more, and they also need to consider personal identity, cultural background and social status when choosing names, so some people's names are long and complex.
Lacey added on the side that this Leonardo is in the underground world of Rio de Janeiro and has a nickname "Challenger".
The reason is naturally that Almeron, the big drug lord, is the "flour king" of Rio de Janeiro, and Leonardo is the one who wants to overthrow him and occupy the throne.
Lacey casually picked up the mineral water on the table and took a sip, wiped her mouth and smiled:
"Salles is a talent, she sells weapons and ammunition where she sells weapons and ammunition where she sells Leonardo, the challenger, and this woman makes money at both ends."
"This is a qualified underground arms dealer."
CIA agent Roland next to him turned a little pale, smiled and said:
"Without war, how can arms dealers make money."
Everyone knew who the largest arms dealer in the world was, and the detectives ignored him, Mona turned her gaze to Luo An and asked:
"What do we do next?"
Of course, investigate this Mr. Leonardo and see if you can ask him for "help". ”
Luo An smiled, groaned slightly, and said:
"Mona, Michelle, you use the computer to investigate, Lacey, Chenelle, you continue to investigate offline.
We figured out how to figure out the whereabouts of this "challenger" Leonardo, or the places he liked to go. ”
“OK!”
"No problem!"
Lacey and Chenelle took some dollars from Roan and left the room again, Mona and Michelle began to type on the keyboard, Roan turned to Winslow and asked:
"How's it going on your side?"
"Franklin opened the way, and naturally everything went well."
Winslow grinned, raised his hand and made an "OK" gesture to Roan, and said:
"Body armor, rifles, pistols, bullets, etc., have all been bought, all of them are high-end goods, absolutely no problem."
“Good。”
Luo An nodded with satisfaction, because of the special circumstances of this operation, the agents of the 13th Investigation Team left the Federation with only basic pistols and other weapons, and did not have any heavy weapons.
So after arriving in Rio de Janeiro, the first thing Roan did was to throw Winslow a few stacks of dollars and ask him to find a way to buy weapons and equipment.
Winslow was as strong as an ox, athletic, and very bluffing when he pulled his face down, not much different from those terrorists.
Coupled with the fact that Winslow had previously worked in a hostage rescue team and had experience in similar operations, he knew how to find people, so this kind of task was the most suitable for him.
Winslow lived up to Roan's expectations and bought it back in a short time.
At the very bottom of the suite was a study that Winslow used as a place to store weapons.
"MP5-9mm submachine gun, Colt M1911 pistol, HUGGE body armor ......"
Picking up an AK47, Luo An looked at the weapons and equipment on the table, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Winslow speechlessly:
"If it weren't for this AK, I'd suspect you'd have gotten it from the Federal Navy SEALs."
The submachine guns, pistols, and body armor were all standard equipment for the Federal Navy SEALs, but they were older.
Winslow smiled, picked up a submachine gun and loaded it with a few clicks, grinned:
"It looks like the styles are a bit old, but I've checked and they've never been used, and they're safe and reliable.
As for where they come from, you know, the federal military "accidentally destroys" millions worth of weapons and equipment every year.
This is South America, and you gave me so many Franklins, it's not hard to get such a little bit. ”
After a few careful inspections and making sure that the weapons and equipment were all right, Roan left the room with Winslow.
At nine o'clock in the evening, I called the waiter to bring dinner, and everyone ate to fill their stomachs while reporting and sorting out the investigation.
"I'll start with that."
Mona swallowed a large gulp of steak and introduced:
"Michelle and I found out in the police system in Rio de Janeiro that Leonardo's parents, wife, and daughter were all dead, and he had no relatives, only he was still alive in the world, and he didn't have a single weakness.
His territory is in the southeast of the city of Rio de Janeiro, mainly in the slums, where some of his men live, and he himself lives in ordinary neighborhoods not far from the slums. ”
"That's right."
Lacey nodded, she ate her fried chicken bun in three or two bites, and then introduced:
"Chenier and I also found out that Leonardo will leave Rio de Janeiro tomorrow morning to go to a certain area in the west to check on the cultivation and processing of greenery this season."
Everyone knew what the green plants in Lacey's mouth were, and no one was going to ask in detail.
Luo An noticed something, frowned slightly, and asked:
"This kind of information should be very hidden, how did you find out?"
"Franklin, of course."
Lacey wiped her mouth and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and replied:
"Cheniele and I bought this news for $5,000."
"Awesome."
Mona gave a thumbs up to Lacey and Chenelle, then asked:
"Rare opportunity, Luo An, should we act tomorrow morning?"
“……”
After being silent for a long time, Luo An's eyes suddenly moved slightly, and he raised his head and said:
"Michelle, show me the photos of the traffic roads in the city of Rio de Janeiro."
Michelle quickly got up to get the computer, and with a few clicks of the keyboard brought up the photos of the city roads, Chenelle turned sideways and pointed to the photos:
"We didn't know the exact route, but if we wanted to leave the city from the west, there were only two cement roads that were easy to drive, and the rest were potholed dirt roads.
There's an intersection next to an abandoned park, and both roads run through it, and we could have set up an ambush in this park. ”
"Good."
Looking at the map and muttering for a few seconds, Luo An didn't talk nonsense, and immediately got up and said seriously:
"Let's hurry up and eat, then rest for a while to recharge, and we'll set off at half past twelve in the morning!"
"Understood!"
"No problem!"
Fast forward to midnight, half past twelve, and the detectives all went into the deepest room in the suite to get their equipment, and then went downstairs to the parking lot.
Roan, Lacey, and Roland drove the first car to the front, and Mona, Chenellele, Winslow, and Michelle followed closely in the second car, and the group quickly headed to the west side of the city in Rio de Janeiro.
At this time in 2006, the level of infrastructure in the city of Rio de Janeiro can only be said to be average, and the concrete roads have not yet had the same coverage as later generations, and many places are still dominated by dirt roads.
The two cars soon arrived at the target area, and Winslow was about to drive to the abandoned amusement park in the distance, when Roan suddenly pressed the liaison and ordered:
"Stop moving forward, drive to the side and hide."
Winslow was a little confused, but immediately began to turn the direction of the car as ordered, and Lacey, who was in the back seat of Roan's car, asked:
"What's wrong?"
"There's no hurry, let's wait a while."
Luo An also slowly drove the car to the side of the road, turned off all the lights and hidden, and the two cars all disappeared into the dark night, Luo An pressed the contact to turn on the public channel, and asked rhetorically:
"Leonardo is leaving Rio de Janeiro in the early hours of this morning, do you feel that something is not right?"
Winslow and the others in the second car immediately concentrated on thinking, and Lacey frowned slightly:
"We paid for this news, you mean, the news is fake, we were scammed?"
Luo An shook his head, and was just about to explain, when fierce gunfire suddenly rang out under the originally silent night sky in the distance!
