Chapter 666: The Art of War
At twelve o'clock in the morning, an SUV slowly pulled up to the side of the road on a distant road in a small town north of Kitcartson City, Colorado.
"The nuclear warhead is not with Captain Joceley?"
In the car, Chenier and Lacey turned their eyes to Luo An, a little puzzled:
"What do you mean?"
Luo An put his chin in his hand and said:
"According to our existing clues, it can be analyzed that the person behind the murder of the treasure hunter Mateo is most likely Second Lieutenant Sobian, and his real goal is to find the nuclear warhead."
"That's right."
Lacey nodded repeatedly:
"It's just that I haven't figured out what exactly Sobian is going to do with a nuclear warhead."
"This can be left for discussion and investigation later."
Luo An's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said:
"Let's start with a question, why did Sobian kill Mateo?"
Winslow and Michelle frowned slightly, and Lacey subconsciously replied:
"From Sobian's point of view, after Mateo told the address where the nuclear warhead was really hidden, people were useless, and naturally they wanted to kill him."
Chenelle, whose eyebrows were tightly locked, thought for a few seconds, and suddenly raised her head and slapped her face:
"The real reason why Sobian killed Mateo was because he didn't want Josley to know the hidden location of the nuclear warhead!"
Lacey turned her head:
"Don't you mean the same thing as I say?
Mateo was killed, and Josley and the others naturally could not get the location where the nuclear warhead was hidden. ”
"No, it's not."
Chenelle shook her head, turned her gaze to Luo An, and said:
"What Roan means is that the reason why Sobian killed Mateo is to make Josley and the others watch him at all times! Killing people deepens this trust and judgment! ”
"That's right."
Roan patted Chernelle on the shoulder and explained to Winslow and Lacey, who were still a little confused:
"If Sobian knows that Josley and the others are chasing him, then after getting the real hidden location of the nuclear warhead, in order to successfully get the nuclear warhead and not be caught by Josley and the others, the best way is to disguise an illusion!"
Michelle next to him also reacted at this time, and suddenly realized:
Sobian kills Mateo as if he had obtained the hidden location of the nuclear warhead and leads the people to the specific location.
But in reality, the gang was a decoy, just to lure Josley's group of trackers to follow, and in fact there were no nuclear warheads in the area.
The real Sobian has already taken people in the other direction, and that is where the nuclear warheads are really located!
The Art of War! ”
"The Art of War", literally translated as "the art of war", actually means "The Art of War".
The book itself comes from the East, but the major military schools of the Federation have listed it as one of the compulsory courses.
Even the cumulative sales of this book are in the top 20 in the Western world, and MBA training has listed this book as an important subject for learning corporate strategy.
Hearing the translation of the idiom spoken by Michelle later, Winslow's eyes lit up and he understood what Roan meant, and Lacey quickly turned a corner:
"Mateo is dead, and Joceley wants to find the nuclear warhead and hunt down Sobian, so he can only follow the clues left by Sobian, that is, chase them.
But these clues were deliberately left by Sobian, and they are all illusions! ”
"That's right."
Luo An nodded, in addition to the rational analysis of the two events of Mateo's death and the kidnapping of Chenelle, the "emotional perception" in his mind is also one of the supports for making this inference.
When he arrested Wilfrido, the mercenary carrying the nuclear warhead, the "emotional perception" in Luo An's mind never sent a fierce warning signal.
On weekdays, he would be excited when he encountered a grenade, but today he didn't fluctuate much when he met a nuclear warhead, which made Luo An wonder if the "emotional perception" was broken.
Later, Luo An was relieved, because the problem was not "emotional perception", but that the nuclear warhead was a fake.
When the minefield was arranged, "Emotional Perception" began to remind Luo An frantically again, warning Luo An of danger, and also making Luo An reconfirm that there was no problem with it from the side.
So when leading Chenille and Lacey to evacuate just now, Roan deliberately let Winslow pass by the road not far from the side of the farm, and the fluctuation of "emotional perception" was very small.
When encountering a bunch of mines, "emotional perception" is a crazy reminder; When encountering a nuclear warhead that is thousands of times larger than the impact area of a landmine and whose explosion result is tens of thousands of times more terrifying, the "emotional perception" fluctuates very little.
In the end, Roan could only come to one conclusion: there were no real nuclear warheads on that farm, and the danger judged by "emotional perception" was the people from the security company.
After a few seconds of silence, Lacey suddenly grinned:
"I can now guess why Sobian is upset."
“?”
Several people looked at her suspiciously, and Lacey smiled and said:
"This kind of tactic is not even visible to Captain Josley, no wonder Second Lieutenant Sobian is not convinced by him."
"Promotion in the federal army doesn't have to be based on merit."
Winslow smiled and said:
"Sometimes Franklin, or a relative of the minister, is more useful."
The corners of Lacey's mouth opened:
"It's too real."
Michelle thought for a moment and said:
"Actually, it's not necessarily that Josley is not capable, bring in his perspective, you can find that he actually has no choice.
Because he was one step too slow, Mateo was killed, leaving him with no clues.
If you want to find Sobian, the best way is to first follow the clues arranged by Sobian and go down, then catch Sobian's subordinates in the process, force them to ask for their true location, and finally find and arrest Sobian. ”
Lacey winks:
"You can only follow the enemy's arrangement, isn't this still a lack of ability?"
“……”
Michelle opened her mouth, not knowing how to refute for a moment.
Luo An gently patted Lacey's arm and said in a deep voice:
"There is no need to discuss the matter of Captain Josley, our next priority is to find the nuclear warhead."
As he spoke, Luo An took a map again, looked at it carefully for a moment, and then he ordered:
"Winslow, just stay in this area and watch the battle between Captain Joceley and that farm from afar, and don't come close."
This was mainly done just in case, and to keep an eye on what was going on behind Captain Joceley and the others.
"Understood."
Winslow nodded, and Roan then said to Chenelle, Michelle, and Lacey:
"You and I, let's go to Texas next door."
What mercenary Wilfrido said earlier is suspected to be Mateo's secret base, and the address is in a region west of Texas.
“OK。”
The three girls nodded in agreement, and Luo An then pressed the contact device and asked Mona to help them connect with the helicopter and car.
The group followed the plan, Winslow returned and left first, and the four of Roan began to wait for the helicopter to arrive.
Because they were too tired, Chenelle and Lacey leaned together and closed their eyes to take a nap, Michelle helped them make convenient food, and Roan stood aside, muttered for a long time, took out his mobile phone and found a number to call.
The phone was quickly connected, and a seductive female voice sounded on the phone:
"Good evening, Team Leader Roan, have you figured it out?"
"It doesn't seem appropriate to say this sentence from a woman's mouth."
“?”
Luo An smiled and got to the point, saying:
"I'd like to ask you for a favor, I need to talk to your father."
