War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 639 Light and Darkness

One day later, in the middle of the night, Mr. Park from Hanbang country, accompanied by a white stewardess, left Egypt's Cairo Airport smoothly and returned to the hotel.

Saying goodbye to the white stewardess who took the final payment, Wei Ran left along the back door familiarly, and got into a dilapidated pickup truck.

"Why are you here?" Wei Ran looked at Jima in the co-pilot in surprise after closing the car door.

"Look! Look what stupid things you say!"

Jima, who hadn't seen him for a while, winked and said, "Didn't we rush to Egypt three days ago to reshoot the shots? Director Anna, my consultant Maya and I just arrived a few hours later than you, and we even visited together A Berber camp!"

"I" Wei Ran grinned, and finally shook his head dumbfounded, "You are right, but who asked you to come?"

"Teacher Dalia"

Jima lowered his voice a little, and still said with a playful smile, "She said that you might need help, so we rushed over immediately."

"They're all here?" Wei Ran asked in surprise.

"how is this possible!"

Jima said solemnly, "We want to add a sideshow to thank the Berbers for their support for the filming work. At the same time, we also want to call for attention to the education of indigenous children in the desert at the end of the film. So only me, the main actor and The assistant director Anna and consultant Maya are here, and of course, your well-known historical consultant should also come."

"Thank you"

Wei Ran sighed secretly, why didn't he know that Jima and others were able to come, no doubt Daria had already guessed something when she found out that she was looking for Soliman for help, so she asked Jima and Anna to rush Came here to help.

Before Wei Ran could say anything more, Soliman, who was in charge of driving, had already stepped on the accelerator and drove to the resort hotel on the banks of the Nile in the dark.

Only when the car was parked in the parking lot of the hotel did Soliman say, "Mr. Park from Hanbang country has disappeared. It is said that after he owed a lot of gambling debts, he got a job from a gang selling khat grass. The members grabbed an SUV and a large bundle of khat grass and fled into the desert outside the city."

Wei Ran was stunned for a moment, and said regretfully, "Gambling is really a dangerous thing."

"It is indeed a very dangerous thing," Soliman said with emotion as he pushed the car door open, "It is even more dangerous than khat grass."

"Unfortunately, of course, I'm talking about gang members who make a living."

While talking, Ji Ma, who was still sitting in the co-pilot, pretended to scribble a cross on his chest, then handed Wei Ran a cosmetic bag, and while Wei Ran took off the disguise, he helped him "Recalling" what I have done these days and what I will do tomorrow.

Naturally, Wei Ran has nothing to say about this.Regardless of whether that Pu Bangzi was innocent or not, he had to thank Jima and Soliman from the bottom of his heart for what they could do for him.

Besides, he is not some kind of Holy Mother with a golden light behind his back, and he will not be like a fool with Polish blood in his head, accusing his friend of why he had the heart to kill an innocent little stick.

After he washed off the super glue on his hands with nail polish remover, Ji Ma also pushed open the car door, made an appointment to meet him for a drink later, and then left the parking lot on his own.

Going back to the room alone and taking a hot shower, Wei Ran took out the mobile phone and satellite phone from the food box, and then turned on the laptop computer that had been kept in the room and casually browsed the web.

Just when he found the news easily, there was a knock on the door from outside.It's just that before he got up, Ji Ma had already opened the door, and walked back with all kinds of food and drink.And behind him, Maya was actually following with a lot of paper bags in her hand.

"Holding" Jima threw a can of cold beer to Wei Ran, and then put some things like barbecue on the table.

"Are you guys together?" Wei Ran asked in surprise, at the same time he blatantly gave Jima a thumbs up, and then touched his fists with him.

"no"

Maya rolled her eyes, took the beer that Jima helped her open with peace of mind, and said helplessly, "Unfortunately, I became Jima's manager."

"How did you do it?" Wei Ran looked at Jima in surprise, and at the same time opened the can in his hand, but immediately after, he was sprayed all over the face by the surging foam.

Looking at Jima and Maya who were about to be pulled out with a smile, Wei Ran showed his middle finger helplessly, took a sip of the beer that was still pouring out, got up and walked to the bathroom where the steam hadn't dissipated.

"Take this." Maya handed the paper bag to Wei Ran, "Auntie Anna prepared the new clothes for you."

"Isn't she coming?" Wei Ran asked curiously.

Maya spread her hands, "She's swimming in the pool outside, let's not disturb her."

Hearing this, Wei Ran didn't ask any more questions, picked up those paper bags and walked into the bathroom.After simply washing it again, I changed into the high-end casual clothes bought with the help of Teacher Anna.

However, before he even left the bathroom, the tattoo on the tiger's mouth became scorchingly hot again.

Seeing this, Wei Ran leaned against the door and took out the metal book.Under his watch, the metal book turned to a page with "End Act".

At this time, the countdown with more than [-] days left on this page has completely disappeared, and even the words "Mission Objective" and other words under the word "End Act" have disappeared.Instead, it was a string of flamboyant characters written by the metal quill: Down with imperialism!Long live the great unity of the peoples of the world!
"So the final act is actually to overthrow imperialism? The great unity of the people of the world?"

Wei Ran muttered something in his heart, simply put away the metal book and opened the door.But he didn't even bother to guess whether it was intentional or unintentional of the metal book, and he didn't even bother to wonder why the assassination work was done without any reward.

When he came out of the bathroom, Jima and Maya were having a lively discussion around his computer.

"What are you talking about?" Wei Ran asked after sitting down again, took a bite of a skewer of grilled fish.

"Of course it's the latest big news!"

Jima pointed to the news that Wei Ran had just clicked on and didn't have time to read, and said mockingly, "Copper smelting, illegal organ trading, evil organizations, free America!"

"It is said that the evil screaming organization that broke the news will continue to reveal an official of the US Internal Revenue Service and an American media tycoon who have ties to this scandal in the near future."

Maya clicked on a webpage while speaking, and then she exclaimed, "Latest news! The crowd of demonstrators just rushed into the hospital in Salt Lake City and took the hospital's director, Ian Bruno, from the ward. Throw it out of the window and die!"

"Didn't the demonstrators yesterday rush into their underground morgue and find the evidence mentioned in the news?" Jima said gloatingly.

"It is said that the police shot and wounded many people," Maya continued, "and the key evidence stored inside has also been inexplicably lost."

"It must be a good thing done by the American police," said Ji Ma firmly.

"Even a fool knows it"

Maya pointed to the screen and said, "Look, not only the United States and Canada, but also many cities in Australia and the United Kingdom have joined the demonstrations."

"What about Australia and the UK?" Wei Ran looked at the news page on the screen in confusion.

Maya spread her hands and concluded with the appearance of someone who has experienced it, "Even if the news from English-speaking countries is shit, other English-speaking countries will follow suit and grab a bite."

"And France," said Jima, "they don't necessarily like to eat shit, but they definitely like strikes and parades."

"That's right!" Maya gave Jima a high-five in agreement.

Seeing that these two people had left him again and started a self-contained discussion, Wei Ran re-opened a can of beer, and happily joined the discussion like a light bulb.

During the last two days in Egypt, under the guidance of Teacher Anna, Wei Ran and Jima shot a public welfare short film with the Berber children that lasted less than 3 minutes.

At the same time, Soliman also took his capable buddy Baja, and sent an overjoyed tourist and an off-road vehicle loaded with a lot of khat grass into the depths of the desert outside the city in the dark , and watched as one person, one cart, and one bundle of grass were completely swallowed by quicksand, and then the ruts were smoothed out and they returned to the hotel.

Continuing to stay in Cairo for the last day, Soliman personally acted as a tour guide and took everyone to visit the pyramids and museums before sending them on the flight to Kazan.

When Wei Ran and others landed in Kazan, two social accounts and email accounts registered in the United States not long ago had passed the regular release function, and at the same time delivered the last two black materials to the furious United States. The common people sent a timely encouragement.
