Chapter Twenty-Three: The Awesome Bulletproof Car and the Mysterious Carney
Zhang Chao slowly opened the car door - began to look for something in the cockpit, MD !! this stupid Zhang Chao, I'm so angry! Meng Chuan'er couldn't wait for a few big flying feet to kick over and let him run quickly. With half a year's tacit understanding, Meng Chuan'er can be 100% sure that what Zhang Chao is looking for is the anti-wolf spray, there is no way, he can only cooperate with him to rush once, and the rest is left to fate.
The anti-wolf spray should be able to restrain the one in front of Zhang Chao, and the distance from here to the bulletproof car is only 20 meters, but this is tantamount to betting his life on the hit rate of the other two kidnappers at a straight-line distance of 20 meters, Meng Chuan'er feels that even if he hits with his eyes closed, the probability of hitting will exceed 50%.
I didn't have time to think about it, I only heard the short man on the other side howl very suddenly: "Ah!!!" Then he threw the gun with both hands and rubbed his eyes desperately, Zhang Chao was so fast that it seemed to be magic, and he was already on fire in the car when his upper eyelids touched his lower eyelids.
Almost at the same time, Meng Chuan'er shouted: "Fenglong! Run!" and then rushed towards the bulletproof car like a girl! And before the words fell, Li Fenglong next to him had already jumped out - the tacit understanding of the three people was clear in this fatal crisis, Li Fenglong, like Meng Chuan'er, obviously had already expected Zhang Chao's action and the consequences of this action, otherwise it would not be so fast, even if Meng Chuan'er's voice didn't shout, Li Fenglong would have run out.
The black turban behind him raised his gun and was about to shoot after three seconds of confusion, seeing that either Meng Chuan'er or Li Fenglong had to hang here today, and at the last moment, the tall man scolded in Pashto - the gun did not go off.
The gun didn't go off???? the gun didn't go off!! the kidnappers didn't shoot! Wasn't their Allah apparition! Tell them that if they were not good boys, they wouldn't go to heaven and wouldn't give them 72 virgins!
said that it was too late, and then it was fast, Meng Chuan'er and Li Fenglong had already jumped into the car like rabbits, only to hear "Bang! bang!" The car door sounded twice, announcing that they were safe, and the happiness of escaping death made Meng Chuan'er want to shout loudly, Zhang Chao made a sharp turn and drove in the direction of the black turban and the tall man - don't get me wrong, he didn't want to kill them, that was the only exit.
In the car window, Meng Kuan'er saw the two kidnappers put down their guns and waved their hands, and they didn't know what to say, this was because the three of them ran away and knocked down one of their brothers, making these two buddies mentally retarded, right? But putting the gun down meant that they were showing goodwill, at least signaling that they would not threaten Meng Chuan'er and them again. And this kind of overture is not to lure them out of the bulletproof car, if this is the purpose, then it is not the two of them who are mentally retarded, but Meng Chuan'er and their mental retardation.
"Chao'er, you stop for a moment. Meng Chuan'er was so curious, and the adventure factor in her bones was ready to move again.
"What are you going to do? Don't tell me, you're going to get out of the car now and interview these two fools, why are you putting your guns down and waving at you. "Zhang Chao and Meng Chuan'er have been together for half a year, day and night, morning and twilight, he really knows this deflated calf too well, Li Fenglong just said that if anyone was Meng Chuan'er's parents, they would have grown grass on their graves, but this is not a joke, because you never know what this tiger is going to do in the next second.
"Why not, Chao'er, don't you think this is a good exclusive close-up?" Meng Kuan'er began to reach out to stop Zhang Chao from continuing to drive the steering wheel.
"I think Nima is a claw, let me tell you Meng Chuan'er, I usually let you listen to you everything, and you are used to being lawless, and human life is not as curious as your little curiosity, you let me get away!" Zhang Chao freed up a hand and quickly pulled Meng Chuan'er aside.
Li Fenglong in the back row silently opened the bulletproof window, and the cry of the black turban came in clearly: "Can you help us introduce me!"
Zhang Chao turned around and patted Li Fenglong's brain: "You are more used to her than me! Who told you to open the window!"
Zhang Chao also heard the shout of the black turban, the instinct of the war correspondent still prevailed over everything, his hands were more honest than his consciousness, because he and Meng Chuan'er were the same people in their profession, so the car stopped.
Meng Chuan'er opened the car door and got out of the car as she wished, and the black turban, the tall man, and the short man who had reacted to the anti-wolf spray before ran over. None of them had guns.
Li Fenglong and Zhang Chao also got out of the car, sandwiching Meng Chuan'er in the middle, one left and one right, forming a three-person versus-three-person situation. Meng Chuan'er glanced at Li Fenglong, and Fenglong nodded—everything was in plain sight, this is a code word that only a good investigative journalist can understand, and she was going to do an interview at this special moment, and asked Li Fenglong to turn on the recorder.
The black turban said to Meng Chuan'er: "Chinese journalist friends, can you help us introduce the owner of this car?"
"Why?"
"We want to join the Taliban. "???? the Taliban??? Carney is the Taliban? And you can recognize it as the Taliban just by this car? It seems that Carney is still the leader of the Taliban? Yu Xiaoshan "colluded" with foreign terrorist organizations? Meng Chuan'er's brain began to run super again, but she didn't show a voice on her face. Zhang Chao and Li Fenglong obviously understood something, and glanced sideways at Meng Chuan'er from left to right.
"I thought you were the Taliban. ”
"That's different. ”
"How is it different? Taliban with AK and Taliban without AK?" Meng Chuan'er knew that this sentence was very unprofessional, and there was an element of ridicule in it - a professional investigative reporter should be as objective and neutral as possible to face the interviewee, but she really didn't have a good impression of the three Taliban impostors, and it can be said that she was extremely disgusted, so even if she knew that she should remain objective and neutral, she couldn't help but use this sharp tongue of teasing.
The black turban looked at it, muttered a local vernacular, and then said with a straight face: "The Taliban is Afhan, and Afhan is the Taliban, so we are the Taliban, but we want to join the Taliban of the owner of this car." "Dude can really go around.
Meng Chuan'er nodded: "Okay, I will help you introduce you if I have the chance." Bad guys can always be deceived, not only can they deceive but also trick them, and this is Meng Chuan'er's values.
"But there is one condition. Meng Chuan'er continued: "The three of you have to be interviewed by us. ”
The process of the interview will not be repeated, and the whole process is restored to three local goods who aspire to join the Taliban, and when they see money, they want to kidnap Meng Chuan'er or any foreigner to extort money, and then buy guns to join the Taliban.
Their neighbor tied up an Englishman and exchanged it for $100,000 on the same day, this kind of "way to make money" made this guy envious, so he made such a show, and then saw this bulletproof car and recognized the owner of this bulletproof car as the third person in the Taliban, so I wanted to ask Meng Chuan'er to help introduce him. If it weren't for the car, they would have shot.
So Meng Chuan'er finally understood why Carney kept this car here, not only to calm out the artillery fire and block bullets for Meng Chuan'er, but also to make the car mean a door face, a business card, and a certain occasion to directly let the other party choose not to shoot.
So in the past few months, she has been driving the car of the Taliban's No. 3 leader in the streets and alleys in various ways? I really feel worried, but Meng Chuan'er has another ghost idea, and now she doesn't want to say it, she is afraid that Zhang Chao and Li Fenglong will kill her, and she is also afraid that Yu Xiaoshan will shoot her to death over the phone, so this idea has to come slowly and have to be foreshadowed.
On the way to see Chen Jie next, Zhang Chao took the camera hidden in the grass and put it in the car. Meng Chuan'er called Yu Xiaoshan - you must know that Yu Xiaoshan has called her every morning and evening for the past six months, and she has never taken the initiative to make even a single call, so as soon as the phone is connected, Yu Xiaoshan was very surprised, but this is the morning in China, he has not woken up yet, and his voice is full of chaos: "Chuan'er...... What's wrong?"
Meng Chuan'er laughed dryly a few times: "Brother Xiaoshan~~~ Are you still asleep? I'm sorry to disturb you." ”
Yu Xiaoshan on the other end of the phone was excited: "If you want my life, you can take it, don't mess up all this nonsense with me! ”
Hmm? Is it so obvious? Meng Chuan'er coughed dryly, and said with a straight face: "Yu Xiaoshan, let me ask you, is Kani a Taliban?"
"It's not. ”
"It's not the Taliban or it's the Taliban, you don't know?"
"Not the Taliban. ”
"What's going on with his car?"
"That's his brother's car, you're too slow to react, and you're an investigative reporter, you should have asked me three months ago. ”
"So his brother is the Taliban?
"Okay, the number of people has been investigated. Yu Xiaoshan lit a cigarette, spit out a smoke ring, and smiled at the phone: "Carney has nothing to do with his brother, he is not a Taliban and does not do anything related to the Taliban." It's just a car to survive. ”
Meng Chuan'er nodded, and suddenly her tone became soft: "Is your relationship with Carney particularly good?"
Yu Xiaoshan was inexplicably chilled: "The friendship that passed the life, what's wrong?"
"Mmmmmmmm......mmmmmm Isn't Carney's relationship with his brother particularly good?"
Yu Xiaoshan's ears suddenly turned up, how could he feel wrong: "Meng Chuan'er, what kind of idea did you play? Let me warn you, it was I who supported you to go to Afuhan to realize your ideals, but my support is limited!"
Meng Chuan'er rolled her eyes, this Yu Xiaoshan, no matter what, he is too smart and then too domineering. She smiled perfunctorily and said, "I'm human, I can't make ghost ideas." Oops, you're too sensitive, it's okay, you keep sleeping, we met a high commissioner of the refugee office today, and now we're going to interview him, and we're going to talk about ......it tonight."
At this time, Zhang Chaozheng stopped the car, turned around and beckoned Li Fenglong to get out of the car, and found that Li Fenglong's right shoulder was wet with dark red blood stains that had dried up: "Damn! Xiao Fenglong, you are injured!"
Li Fenglong quickly put his index finger to his lips and made a "shh", it was too late, Meng Chuan'er's phone hadn't hung up yet, Yu Xiaoshan heard Zhang Chao's shout, and squinted his eyes at the phone: "Meng Chuan'er?"
Meng Chuan'er felt weak for a while: "Ha, I'm not hurt, Xiao Fenglong was walking and stumbling just now, I'll hang up first when we get to the place, bye." ”
