War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 1475 Xia Shushi’s Girlfriend

On the last day of August, Wei Ran has returned to his grandma's house in Baiyangdian. He is now holding half a watermelon and spreading it on a lounge chair under the toon tree, and holding the other half of a watermelon and spreading it on another bench. Suisui chatted with each other.

"So we're reunited?" Suisui used a rice spoon to dig out a piece of watermelon meat the size of an egg, brought it to her mouth, took a bite of the boss, and asked in a low voice.

"Um"

Wei Ran also took a spoonful of watermelon, put it into his mouth, and responded to the other party's question in a vague whisper.

"What about Captain America?"

After Suisui asked, she immediately regretted it, "Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask. That... you didn't kill anyone, right?"

"That's what you said"

Wei Ran took a sip of a spoonful of cold watermelon juice and whispered in a painful voice, "Having spent half a million dollars, you still need me to do it myself?"

Upon hearing this, Suisui immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said jokingly, "Be careful the police uncle arrests you."

“If we want to arrest him, it must be the American police.”

After Wei Ran finished speaking, he smacked his lips in confusion, "It's a pity that Captain America's son was not caught."

"How about we ask Mr. Sherlock for help and put a reward of $50?"

Suisui grasped the stainless steel rice spoon and said subconsciously, "As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves. It is also said that if you cut the weeds without removing the roots, you will definitely get sap. And as the saying goes, strike first to gain strength, and attack later."

"boss!"

Before Suisui could finish her harsh words, the Katenka sisters each ran out of the room with a tablet computer, "There's news."

Hearing this, Wei Ran and Suisui immediately put down the watermelons in their hands, each took out a wet wipe and wiped their hands randomly, then took the tablets handed over by the sisters.

"News from more than half an hour ago"

Anphia explained, "Captain America's son, former U.S. Representative Brad, has been found. He was hidden in a container at the Hue port that was supposed to be sent to a country containing rods."

"In the container?" Wei Ran asked pretending to be surprised, "Is he still alive?"

"died"

Anfisa secretly rolled her eyes in her mind and explained with a normal expression, "His mobile phone and some food were found in the container, but he was already dead. At present, the local police initially determined that he died of heat stroke caused by high temperature. , the temperature in Hue has been very high in recent days.”

After a short pause, Anfiya continued, "Originally, the container was supposed to be on board last night, but it was delayed because a package of unique products was detected on the cargo ship."

"So... it's just too hot?" Suisui asked in shock.

"According to the police's judgment, the time of death should be around noon today."

Anfisa said, "The police analyzed that the container was located relatively high and was locked on the outside. In addition, based on the cans left in the container, "the other party probably drank a lot of beer to try to cool down because the temperature was getting higher and higher. He also poured a lot of beer on himself.

Although the surface temperature was close to 50 degrees that day, it was fine because of the sea breeze. However, the container, which was always exposed to the sun, was like an oven. "

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a horrible way to die."

Wei Ran couldn't help but was speechless, and he also briefly flipped through the content displayed on the web page of the tablet computer in his hand.

According to the above statement, the police found frequent emails and phone calls in Brad's mobile phone mailbox, the last of which was a distress message edited around 1:00 noon today and several calls that were not made.

Unfortunately, there was no signal in the container, so the final phone calls were not made at all, and the emails were not sent at all. However, the police have also stated that they will follow these clues to investigate.

In addition, the police did not know whether they were stimulated by the photos that were exposed some time ago or by the official attitude of the United States a little later. This news also used a considerable space to break the news. Contents found in Ladd's mailbox.

Among them were emails in which he threatened Jack, the former director of VN15, to kill Wei Ran, as well as key evidence that he had hired Jack to help him murder political opponents.

Of course, all this has nothing to do with Wei Ran, or even Hela, Succubus, or even his allies.

Although the forged unfinished emails and call records were credited to Anfiya, the matter of stuffing Brad into the container and then exposing it was entirely done by Ivan Yoo alone.

Of course, this could also be called Wei Ran's business skills assessment before he went to work in the orphanage.

From the current point of view, Ivan Yoo, who is taking a public flight and is expected to land in the Philippine Monkey Country soon, has undoubtedly given a perfect score.

"Just now I said I would spend another 50 yuan to buy a safe."

Suisui said happily, "Mr. Brad is really considerate and has saved me a lot of money."

"So you can really afford 50 US dollars?" Wei Ran asked pretending to be curious, changing the subject without leaving any trace.

"That's what you said"

Suisui snorted proudly, "Not to mention anything else, the dividends from the pseudo-documentary we shot in Antarctica last time were enough for me to spend two to three US dollars, but it's not bad to save. Now, I’ll probably be able to buy another big plane in a few years.”

"What?" Wei Ran looked at the other party in astonishment, "Buy another plane?"

"Can't"

Suisui became more and more proud, "Now this one is not enough. Not only does it have to be responsible for the Greva fruit route, but it also has to fly Mr. Cha's demining equipment to black Africa from time to time.

In a month or two, the routes over to the town of Tula and Inta will probably get busy. Now one transport plane is simply not enough. If it weren’t for that ugly thing from Jima, I would have considered it. Rented a plane. "

Hearing this, Wei Ran grinned and couldn't help but start thinking about whether to contact Uncle Chubu with big ears.

Knowing that he couldn't help Suisui with his big business, Wei Ran simply changed the topic again, "Now that Captain America and his beloved son are dead, we should prepare to return to Kazan to make money."

"Let's go back tomorrow"

Suisui made the decision, waved her hand like a rich man, and said energetically, "Inform Alili and ask him to drive that ugly thing over to pick us up. We will take a special flight back this time."

"Why are you so generous this time?" Wei Ran asked with a smile.

"What a great man, you saved us 50 dollars!" Suisui said happily, "If we don't spend it, we won't feel at ease."

"That's true"

Wei Ran nodded mindlessly, "Where are your parents? Aren't they going back with you?"

"They went to visit Uncle Wang again."

Suisui shook her head dumbfounded, "My father and Uncle Wang have now become drinking buddies like brothers, and my mother is already discussing with Uncle Wang to focus on her old profession."

"What's your job? Be a prostitute?" Wei Ran asked subconsciously.

"Can't"

Suisui obviously knew something inside, "This time my mother is planning to use agricultural drones."

"Drone?"

Wei Ran's eyes widened, "Where do they usually sell them?"

"Russian"

Sui Sui answered as a matter of course, "I don't know how they negotiated it, but the price was lower than the one Qin Ershi found for me. Basically, if Qin Ershi bought three, they could probably buy five. I heard the quality is a bit worse."

Mother-in-law is going to become an arms dealer?

Wei Ran glanced at Suisui with a strange expression. The latter obviously knew what he was thinking. He said like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, "It seems that the buyer was contacted through an old man from Marta's house. This time with Marta, It really doesn't matter, Erta.

In addition, my father said that Mr. Alexander seemed to be involved in this business. These drones were not only sold to the front line, but most of them really served agriculture. "

"So what about the travel agency?" Wei Ran asked. "You remember my dad's old friend, right?"

Suisui asked, "Sister Zoya's father, Uncle Pasha, is going to close down the supermarket he took over from Sui Xin's family and take over the travel agency business. Also taking over the travel agency, Greva is sent to Volgograd. Those little punks who took care of Grandpa Nikolai.”

"Them?" Wei Ran's expression became even weirder.

"Specialized in the business of sending Russians to China to play"

Suisui spread her hands, "I don't know the details, but as far as I know my godfather and godmother are also involved."

"No wonder I haven't seen them at all in recent days."

Wei Ran muttered secretly. He was originally curious about why his parents suddenly went out to play with Suisui's parents. They were conspiring together to achieve a great cause.

"Can't"

Suisui continued to reveal exclusive information that Wei Ran didn't know about, "I heard that my godfather and godmother are planning to let Sui Xin's parents and Aunt Fu run the travel club, and they are also involved in the drone business."

Done! My parents also became arms dealers.

Wei Ran grinned, "Why don't I know anything about this?"

Suisui took a big spoonful of watermelon into her mouth as a matter of course, "My godmother said, it's useless to tell you. If you don't tell me, you're just wasting your time and making no money."

"Um, ah, right! How is Mr. Nicholas doing?" Wei Ran had to change the topic again.

"Mr. Nikolai is in good health. I heard from Sister Zoya that he recently participated in a swimming competition across the Volga River. Not only did he win the first prize in the senior group, he also saved an old lady who couldn't swim. Go up."

Monster Wei Ran increasingly felt that he could no longer continue the conversation.

At this time, Anfiya, who was sitting on the maza, also contacted Alili, and Anfisa notified the other girls who came to China.

To say that these girls are not idle, those Hela international students were left in Suisui's gang den in the capital to (eat) build (drink) socialize (play) and (have fun) to enhance communication.

Lola works during the day to receive business training and spends time with her sister Korava after get off work.

Even Marta and Lucinda had things to do. After they measured the blood pressure of the two families' grandparents, they were borrowed by Grandpa Sui Sui, who had not practiced medicine for a long time, to start free medical treatment in the village. Even a few days ago, when Wei Ran was in critical condition, the old man and two children were interviewed by the county TV station.

If we really talk about it, the Katenka sisters are the only ones who have nothing to do on the surface, but only on the surface.

Seeing Suisui and Katenka sisters chatting about their work arrangements, Wei Ran wisely gave up the recliner. He walked into the room alone and took out what he got from the latest page of the metal book: a US military butt bag.

Ever since he shot the red smoke bomb to Wild Boar George, there was a blue vortex on the back of the latest page in the metal book.

Under this whirlpool, there is another message definitely from Zach: "Every qualified war photographer should have at least a half-frame camera and a sufficiently accurate light meter, as well as sufficient spare film and basic development. equipment."

As mentioned in this sentence, the canvas handle of this butt bag has a very familiar light meter fixed with a metal bead chain, and there is also a Nikon S3M half-frame camera.

This camera is not only equipped with an S12 motor that can take 72 pictures per second, but also has a motor-driven battery fixed at the bottom of the hard cowhide camera case.

After these days of experiments, he discovered that whether this camera, that light meter, or this heavy bag can be taken out of the metal book and used separately.

This will undoubtedly allow him to record some fleeting moments in time as quickly as possible - if he needs to.

Open the bulging butt bag. Compared with the original version, this butt bag has an extra canvas partition in the middle.

The space on the left was filled to the brim with fifty or sixty films in sealed tubes. He had already checked that most of these sealed tubes contained 135 rolls, but there were also a dozen of them, which contained 120 rolls that could be used for the Rollei.

The space on the right contains several spare motor batteries, a thermometer protected by a stainless steel lining with a piece of suede rolled on the outside, a developing tank in a secret bag, and several bottles needed for developing film. of potions.

These things were enough for him to develop the film into a visible negative under the simplest conditions.

The photographer’s equipment is sorted, right?

Wei Ran muttered secretly, picked up the retro light meter and glanced at it, then adjusted the half-frame camera, pointed it at the two beautiful girls outside the window who were busy talking about work, and pressed the shutter.

However, before he could put down his latest camera, he found a heavily modified off-road vehicle parked outside the courtyard gate in the viewfinder.

As the car door opened, a scumbag who was about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a double-breasted practice suit, round-top cloth shoes, and a few circles of Star and Moon Bodhi bracelets wrapped around his wrist, but he had the appearance of a boy and a girl and fair skin walked away. come out.

Unscrupulously stretching lazily at the gate, Xia Shushi set up a pergola with his hands, squinted at the scorching sun, and sneezed as expected.

"clang clang"

Knocking lightly on the vermilion iron courtyard door, this fellow enthusiastically greeted Suisui and Katenka sisters under the toon tree, and then asked, "Your Majesty, your loyal servant Wei Ran Woolen cloth?"

Why is this scum here?

Just when Wei Ran, Suisui, and even the Katenka sisters were putting away their cameras and other things, the same idea came to their minds, and the main driver's door of the off-road vehicle was also pushed open from the inside.

Immediately afterwards, a tall girl with sunglasses on her forehead and fresh short hair walked out.

This is indeed a big girl. If nothing else, at least her height seems to be at most one forehead shorter than Xia Shushi, let alone... right?

Compared to Xia Shushi's lazy Chinese dress, this girl is much more energetic. She wears a pair of loose lace-up sweatpants and white sneakers, and her upper body is a dress that extremely, extremely, extremely highlights her proud figure and wheat-colored skin. black waist tight tank top.

Is this the Dazha girl introduced to Xia Shushi by Qin Er's father? Xia Shushi's ancestral tomb must have erupted with a flare!

The same idea came to Wei Ran and Suisui's minds again, and the former also subconsciously glanced at the off-road vehicle with a Sichuan license plate at the door.

It can be seen that this car has definitely been professionally modified, especially the eye-catching reminder on the back side of the car that "there is an AED in the car, and you can break the window to get it in an emergency without any responsibility", and even the big red window hammer fixed on the outside of the car. It implies that the owner of this car has a great sense of justice.

While thinking about it, Wei Ran opened the door and left the room, and said enthusiastically, "Why did you come here?"

"Come on, let me introduce you to everyone."

Xia Shushi didn't care about Wei Ran's problem at all. He hugged the girl next to him and said proudly, "This is my daughter."

"Prospective girlfriend, he hasn't passed the probation period yet."

While the girl was correcting Xia Shushi, she stretched out her hand towards Suisui and introduced herself crisply, "Hello, I am Qin Qi, Xia Shushi's prospective girlfriend, beast, ah no, Qin II, that one should be a slut It's my cousin."

"Um, hello!"

Suisui immediately shook hands with the other party after a brief moment of astonishment. After introducing herself, while Wei Ran was shaking hands with the other party, she also introduced the Katenka sisters.

Without entering the house, Wei Ran and Suisui invited Xia Shushi and his soon-to-be girlfriend Qin Qi to sit down at the stone table under the toon tree. The Katenka sisters followed closely and brought iced watermelon. And a cold Coke.

"So you came here without even saying hello, just to show off your girlfriend?" Wei Ran joked while dividing the watermelon between Xia Shushi and Qin Qi.

"No!" Xia Shushi took a big mouthful of watermelon proudly.

"Would you like to put another one in and try?"

After Qin Qi finished speaking, she also picked up a watermelon and took a bite of the boss.

In general, although this girl's character and temperament were too different from her figure and name, they matched Xia Shushi inexplicably.

"I really just came here to show off my girlfriend."

After Xia Shushi finished speaking, he took another bite of the boss's watermelon and said vaguely, "Let's see if you can help me."

"Help? What are you doing?" Wei Ran and Suisui looked at each other, then asked curiously.

"Ask Qin Qi about this." Xia Shushi picked up the second watermelon as he spoke.

"I'm a university teacher," Qin Qi paused and continued, "I teach geography."

Did not see it

Wei Ran and Suisui looked at each other in tacit understanding, each understanding the same murmur in the other's heart.

"This summer vacation, I drove to Ganzi." Qin Qi continued, "I found something on the road."

"I went too"

Xia Shushi, who had already finished the second watermelon, picked up the third watermelon and said, "We found something on the way. I guess it may be a relic left behind during the Long March."

"Long March?" Wei Ran was stunned and asked subconsciously, "So what exactly did you discover?"
