War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 653 Hela's Pomp and Ballet
Since returning to Kazan, Wei Ran has finally fulfilled his wish and lived a leisurely life full of food and sleep.Of course, once this person is free, he will find something to do for himself.But Wei Ran found only one thing for himself - to spend money.

After discussing adjustments with the contractor, Lao Li, Wei Ran paid a high enough construction and material cost, and the latter immediately summoned more manpower to start a drastic renovation.

There are more places to spend money, the server that Anfeya wants and the construction cost of the computer room where the server is stored are also not low.But no matter Wei Ran or Sui Sui, they have already tasted the sweetness brought by Anfeiya's use of the network to collect information, so the money was spent more happily than the cost of workshop renovation.

With these few expenses, Wei Ran's account balance and the cash in the attic safe were added together, and there was only less than [-] euros left. It was not until this time that Wei Ran understood why the Joseph who sold the workshop to him Would rather panic here.

Of course, there are those who spend money, and there are naturally those who don't.

Among other things, when Wei Ran approached Teacher Dalia and proposed to get a scooter of the same model as his armored pickup for Suisui, the other party did not take any money—it was just brought from him. A few of the rough diamonds in that box were randomly selected.

This transaction is not a loss for Wei Ran, after all, he has no channel to sell the stolen goods, and he doesn't know who to sell those colorful and ugly stones to.

He didn't even know who to ask for help in cutting and polishing those rough stones, so he didn't have any complaints about being able to exchange those few broken stones for a car, and even took the initiative to ask the other party to take a few more and buy more. got one.

Of course, although he was extremely satisfied with the deal, when Jima and Maya each drove an armored pickup truck into the yard on the last day of September, Sui Sui's eyes looked like he was looking crazy.

"This is the car you prepared for us?"

"Yes"

Wei Ran patted the heavy door with satisfaction, "It has the same level of protection as my armored pickup, except that the top has changed from a pickup to a passenger compartment with more space."

While he was doing his best to introduce here, Ji Ma also helped to open the wide door of the rear compartment, and said in unison, "The rear compartment can accommodate up to six people, all of which are air seats that can be adjusted 360 degrees. There's even room for a stretcher in the aisle."

"Why should I put the stretcher?" Sui Suo asked dully.

"If the group in the middle is removed, a small table can be installed, which is just enough for four people to play mahjong around." Wei Ran introduced more and more earnestly.

"not me."

Sui Sui looked at the smug Wei Ran, who wanted to cry without tears, and then looked at the Katenka sisters who were holding back their smiles with sullen faces, and the sisters who couldn't straighten up from laughing. Maya finally nodded with a sad face, "Thank you very much, this car is very good. I am very satisfied. That. Katenka! Let's go to the airport to pick up tourists."

Before the words were finished, Sui Sui had already got into the carriage in a hurry, closed the thick door with a bang, and shut Wei Ran out by the way.

The Katenka sisters looked at each other, got into the driver's cab and the co-pilot's cab in no particular order, stepped on the accelerator and walked away.Only Wei Ran and Jima, who were staring under the oak tree, were left, and Maya, who was already laughing and hiccupping.

"Victor, you should ask me about giving gifts to girls."

Jima patted Wei Ran's shoulder with earnestness and said, "Why would you think of giving this kind of car to Aurora? It's not even as cute as a pink Vaz in the eyes of girls."

"You know what! You'll know later that I made the right choice."

Wei Ran, who was still pretending to be a straight man of steel just now, pulled away the dog's paws on his shoulders. The reason why he prepared such a car for Sui Sui was naturally due to his own considerations.And the reason why she deliberately didn't explain it just now was just to let her see the effect for herself.

"Jima is really right this time." Maya said with a smile, "This car is really not as cute as the pink Vaz bread."

"You'll know then"

While Wei Ran was speaking, he threw the keys of his previous armored pickup truck to Jima, "That pickup truck is yours now."

"What did you say?" Jima, who subconsciously caught the car keys, looked at Wei Ran in surprise.

"I said, my previous armored pickup truck is yours, but how about replacing my previous off-road vehicle with me?"

"Are you full?" Ji Ma suddenly said something in Chinese.

"You don't plan to change?" Wei Ran asked with a smile.

"Change, why not change?"

Jima happily took out the car key and was about to throw it to Wei Ran, but he didn't want the other party to wave his hand, "Don't give it to me, you can find a way to send it to Inta. In the future, Aurora and the others will go to Inta, at least There's a car to stand up for, and that's definitely a better fit for Inta's surroundings."

"So that's why you bought a new pickup?" Jima asked in disbelief.

"Almost." Wei Ran gave an ambiguous answer, "Why? You still plan to buy this new car?"

"Damn rich man" Ji Ma scolded with a smile and didn't care, but there was more gratitude in his eyes.

There is no difference between Wei Ran's previous pickup truck and the new one. It would be a loss to exchange it with him for the off-road vehicle that originally belonged to the former, not to mention that the off-road vehicle was still sent to Inta.So inside and outside, he and Inta behind him are taking advantage of Wei Ran.

On the other hand, Maya, who was watching from the sidelines, inadvertently revealed a look of amazement in her eyes that were originally full of smiles.

As a bystander, she probably guessed that behind Wei Ran's generous car change, it might have something to do with Jima's special trip to Egypt to shoot sideshows not long ago.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but spread her palms, and looked at the small gift that Sui Sui gave her just now - two small translucent stones that were slightly larger than soybeans and packed in a jewelry box.

The fact is indeed as Maya guessed, Wei Ran joined forces with Suisui to help Jima and Maya to exchange cars and give them diamonds. The reason is actually to thank them for going to Egypt to prove their alibi .

It's just that based on his understanding of Ji Ma, a scumbag, if he really bought a car for him, this 18th-line star who was born as a gangster would not want it no matter how much he likes it, so he deliberately made such a big circle.

"Okay, don't waste time, let's join in the fun too." Wei Ran bent down and picked up the dog lying at his feet and put it into the newly bought armored pickup.

"Maya, you can drive this car."

Jima gave Maya the keys to the armored pickup truck he had just obtained, then put the keys of the off-road vehicle on the hood, got into the passenger seat of Wei Ran's new car and closed the door.

Maya rolled her eyes when she saw this, and finally got into another car next to her, started the engine and drove out of the yard.

In the car driven by Wei Ran, Jima hung up the phone and said, "Grieva will come and drive that off-road vehicle away and send it to Inta by railway. Thank you, Victor."

"Stop it"

Wei Ran waved his hand and interrupted the other person's disgusting sour words, "The tourists who come here today will stay at the forest farm for one night, and then Feiinta tomorrow morning, you know?"

"Know"

Jima nodded, "I lived in the forest farm yesterday, and experienced all the recuperation programs in the Soviet era."

"For a fee?" Wei Ran asked with a smile.

"The whole set costs [-] rubles. If you want to take a set of Soviet-style convalescent photos, you need an extra [-] rubles." Jima spread his hands, "Mr. Daria said, this is the price set by Aurora. "

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Wei Ran decisively changed the subject, "How did you feel during the half month in Kirov?"

“It was like a nightmare”

Jima said with lingering fear, "That bastard Gorman almost created a screaming organization with his own hands, and I almost incited those psychopaths to overthrow Kirov's police station."

"What did you just say?" Wei Ran suddenly began to doubt his ears.

"I said, that bastard Gorman almost created a demon organization with his own hands, and I almost fanned those psychopaths who overthrew Kirov's police station."

Jima's face was full of fear at this time, "Victor, you absolutely don't believe what Gorman taught me to do."

"If you want to say it, say it quickly." Wei Ran also slightly reduced the speed of the car while speaking.

"Brainwashing" Jima subconsciously lowered his voice, "He taught me how to brainwash."

"Brainwashing?" Wei Ran was stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.

Jima didn't notice Wei Ran's expression, but asked almost muttering, "Victor, how long do you think it will take to brainwash a group of people?"

"One year?"

While Wei Ran gave the answer, he said another answer in his heart - at most one week.

“At most a week is enough”

Jima glanced at Caucasus who was squatting obediently on the back seat, and finally said, "Stop the car first, I have to smoke a cigarette before I can tell you what happened in detail."

Hearing this, Wei Ran pulled over and stopped the car after hesitating for a while, and Ji Ma immediately pushed the door open, and gestured to Maya who was following behind to signal her to take a step ahead.

The two left the cab, and Jima leaned against the front of the car to light a cigarette, looked at the calm lake not far away and said, "Do you still have a memory of a group of children in that mental hospital? When we first went there , there is a girl singing to them."

"I have an impression." Wei Ran nodded, patiently waiting for the other party's description.

"Gorman brainwashed them in about six days"

Jima took a sharp puff of cigarette, "He first gathered all the patients in that hospital together, and eliminated everyone except those children through various language traps. Of course, I was also eliminated from the crowd. inside."

"And then?" Wei Ran, who had already guessed the approximate result, asked.

Jima swallowed, and continued, "Those children were as numb as the living dead at first, but when more and more other mentally ill patients and care workers were eliminated around them, they seemed to come alive."

When talking about this, Jima shivered uncontrollably, "Although I can't understand English, when Gorman eliminated all irrelevant people and only them were left, the eyes of those children It was as scary as the wolves who had been starved for a month in the winter of Inta. And they became extremely united, they unified their costumes, and even designed their own team title and logo.

Then it took about three days, and smiles gradually appeared on the faces of those children, and the hatred in their eyes was also transferred to "

"Say it!" Seeing that Ji Ma had stopped, Wei Ran couldn't help urging him.

"Do you believe?"

Jima said in the lingering smoke, "Their hatred has actually been transferred to the President of the United States. That day happened to be the afternoon of the sixth day. Gorman said at the time that it only took seven days for God to create the world, and it only took seven days to brainwash a group of people. Seven days at most will be enough."

Taking a puff of cigarette again, Jima looked at Wei Ran with a little panic in his eyes and said, "Those children used Hella from Norse mythology as their organization name, and they even designed a girl with a beautiful woman on the left side of her face." , the right face is the devil's face as a symbol."

"And then?" Wei Ran asked, frowning.

"What do you think their goal is?"

When Jima said this, he couldn't help laughing, "Their goal is to become the president of the United States or to control the president of the United States. And in order to achieve this goal, the first thing they need to do is to study hard."

"Study hard?" Wei Ran was stunned for a moment, his brows that were originally frowning were relaxed, and a smile could not help but appear on his face.

"Meanwhile, Gorman asked me to brainwash the psychopaths who were eliminated."

Ji Ma spread his hands, "He asked me to set up an organization that is opposed to those children."

"you succeeded?"

"I screwed up"

Jima said embarrassingly, "Those idiots mistakenly believed that the emergence of the Hella organization was due to the incompetence of the local police, and then they decided to escape from the mental hospital together one night and burn down the police station in Kirov. The worst thing is, Those bastards are hiding these decisions from me."

"And then?" Wei Ran tried to hold back a smile and asked.

"Then they were stopped by barbed wire, and each was given a sedative after being given an electric baton."

Jima said with a bitter face, "That bastard Gorman said that I almost did what the mustache did in the beer hall. He even asked you to tell me in detail what the mustache said in the beer hall. "

"He fooled a group of unsatisfactory waste in the beer hall and burned the Vienna Academy of Arts with him"

Wei Ran made a nonsense nonsense, and asked as he walked into the cab, "Is that old guy back too?"

"no"

Jima flicked the cigarette butt, and then got into the co-pilot and said, "He's doing the final psychotherapy for that cute girl named Monica and that clean freak named Tassie."

"The two of them have also been brainwashed?" Wei Ran asked curiously.

"Probably so"

Jima closed the car door and scratched the back of his head and said, "He didn't allow me to have contact with the two of them, but the girl named Monica must have been brainwashed together with the children I just mentioned."

"Why do you say that?" Wei Ran asked curiously while stepping on the gas pedal.

Ji Ma spread his hands, "Because she got the name Hela, even the face logo with a beautiful woman on the left and a devil on the right was designed by her."

Speaking of this, Jima took out his phone and looked through it, found a picture from a bunch of watermarked pictures of beautiful women's chest muscles and handed it to Wei Ran, "This is the picture she asked Gorman to submit to them at the time." I took pictures of the name and logo of the organization."

Scanning the picture on the screen, Wei Ran was stunned. He vaguely remembered that the desktop of Anfeiya's laptop screen was this picture.And this desktop seems to have been used by her a long time ago, when he thought there was only one Kajianka.

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Wei Ran did not follow this topic to chat, but just increased the speed and drove towards the airport.

When the two of them joined Sui Sui and Maya who arrived earlier, a brand new bus stopped beside the three of them in no particular order.

To the surprise of outsiders, the driver of this bus was Siva, who was brought to work in the Hongqi Forest Farm by Dalia, the grandson of the tank driver, and Mrs. Valentina who waited for her husband to come back until her death. Grandson Siva.

The man named Xiwa remained silent as usual. After parking the car and waving to everyone, he silently wiped the non-existing dust on the car body with a large towel.

Seeing that the gang members that Ji Ma had called to help were already in place, everyone walked to the airport under the leadership of Sui Sui.

After waiting for a while, when a group of tourists came out under the leadership of the tour guide, those Inta apprentices who went to Huaxia to learn how to take a bath also followed behind with their luggage, looking at them With that farting appearance, it is obvious that this month's gold-plated life has been very nourishing.

When they came to the parking lot with these forty people, Xiwa had already stood at the door of the car waiting for a long time, and he even had a small basket full of flowers hanging in his hand. When a tourist gets on the bus, this quiet man will send a bouquet of flowers with a smile on his face.

And those gang boys wearing Adidas three-stripe stripes also smiled like Captain Jia, enthusiastically helping to stuff everyone's luggage into the luggage compartment of the bus.

"Jima, you can drive behind the bus later." Wei Ran said abruptly.

"No problem," Ji Ma replied happily, without thinking about it at all.

"Anfisa, wait for your car to walk behind me." Wei Ran continued.

Anfisa immediately nodded and agreed, also without asking further questions.

"What are you doing?" Sui Sui looked at Wei Ran puzzled.

"Of course it's a show"

Wei Ran said proudly, "Armored vehicle escort, such a showy thing, you fat sheep must like it. This first impression, if you drive a Nissan commercial vehicle, who will remember you? But if you drive an armored vehicle, then that's okay. It’s different. This is Russia after all, and what those people want to see is a tough fighting nation after all, right?”

"Just for this?"

"It's the same price anyway, so why not get one that's impressive?"

"How did I start to think that what you said made sense?"

Sui Sui's eyes lit up, and she patted Wei Ran's shoulder triumphantly, "Comrade you can do it! How do you say that old saying? A fool who thinks a thousand things will gain something?"

"I'm fooling you!" Wei Ranpa, who successfully pretended to be B, pulled away the opponent's little hand, turned around and got into the armored pickup that didn't even have time to tear off the plastic wrapping of the seat.

It is true that the excuses that were specially prepared for Sui Sui just now are part of it, but in addition, the bulletproof commercial vehicle was prepared for Sui Sui because he was worried about being found out and retaliated against after he completed the final task of assassinating Bruno's family uneasy.

However, the facts were indeed as he expected, although his gift of a straight man of steel failed to impress Sui Sui at first, but after the convoy arrived at the Hongqi Forest Farm, it impresses the young men and middle-aged men in the car.Even before they got their luggage, a few curious people came up, took out their phones and started taking pictures.

Seeing this, Ji Ma also lifted the heavy hood spiritually, and even deliberately didn't close the door, so he took a few of his younger brothers to act as porters, helping to carry the luggage diligently.

At the same time, on the second floor of the consultation center not far away, Karp put down the binoculars with satisfaction, "There have been no tourists here for a long time."

"The last batch was still from the Soviet Union."

Teacher Dalia next to her smiled, "Okay, I'm going to organize the girls to perform ballet."

"The show worked," Culp said with a laugh.

Dalia was stunned when she heard the words, and also smiled, and muttered to herself as she walked out, "I haven't heard this sentence for a long time."
