War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 966
In Columbia, the capital of South Carolina, on the top floor of a high-end hotel in the most prosperous part of the city, Sui Sui and An Fei Sa, who came one step ahead, and the little rich woman Koko, who was just watching the fun, and even her legal counsel and housekeeper Horta, Already occupying 12 of the only 4 suites on the top floor.

Near noon, Wei Ran, who came by car, ignored the reporters behind him, took the elevator upstairs alone with a small amount of luggage, and lived in the room that Sui Sui had opened in advance.

Behind him, Anfeya, who was acting as the driver, did not go upstairs. Instead, she drove with another car driven by her sister Anfisa, and left the hotel and drove straight to a large supermarket not far away but not too close. .

When they found two adjacent parking spaces at the farthest corner of the parking lot, Anfisa immediately got into her sister's car.

"Your," Anfeya said, and handed a small PSS pistol and two spare magazines to her sister who was sitting in the co-pilot.

"Provided by the boss?"

While Anfisa responded, she stuffed the pistol and the magazine into her bag, then pushed open the car door that had just been closed, and walked towards the large supermarket with her sister who also got out of the car.

"Just got it in a service area outside the city where a lot of delivery trucks are parked."

Anfeya paused, and reminded meaningfully, "It's exactly the same weapon as the one we used in Austria, and the one I used even smelled of the perfume I was wearing at that time."

"So the boss really controls a big and scary intelligence organization?"

"The latter wants to hide from Sister Aurora"

Gently put the locked metal tube on the upper layer of the food box with the night vision goggle, but Wei Ran was not satisfied, and then took out the medical box, found a morphine and a stuffing box inside. Go for the disposable syringe.

"How about I entrust lawyer Carlos to send some lawyer's letters?" Wei Ran asked jokingly.

"A friend who sows seeds together is completely trustworthy, and he can help you unconditionally."

With this in mind, he immediately took out of his pocket the authenticator that he took out from the food box along with the weapons he gave to Sister Katenka when he was halfway in the service area, and connected it to the laptop. He knocked and sent an email to Anfeiya.

After collecting the medical box, he inhaled the morphine into the disposable syringe, carefully covered the needle cap, and put it into the upper layer of the food box together with the iron tube originally containing the morphine and the rubber gloves on his hands, before he took it back into the metal book.

Although this two-story villa full of strong Mexican style is not big, it is extraordinarily beautiful, and there is a beautiful swimming pool reflecting a little bit of starlight in the yard.

After a while, the LCD screen on the table displayed a simple webmail interface.

If it's the latter, it's not difficult. Before leaving for the United States, he met the son of the assaulter Feschenk, and now the weirdo Ninel who calls himself a courier.

Sui Sui, who was leaning against Wei Ran's arms, said happily while drinking iced Coke, "Everyone knows that you, a historian, and the Gravett family will not really sue these bastards who speak freely on the Internet, but Ka Ross is a lawyer, and he will really send a lawyer's letter."

Looking at the rear compartment through the rearview mirror, Wei Ran gently pushed the door of the car owner who was sleeping very sweetly because of being drugged, and walked towards the coastline in the night.

"Forget it, when I didn't say it."

"I'll help you prepare your clothes and car"

Anfeya, who had almost driven the car into the hotel parking lot, pulled over and stepped on the brakes at the same time she heard the message.

With the night vision device turned on, Wei Ran easily climbed over the one-meter-high fence, and then easily pried open the lock of the back door of the villa in the fluorescent-colored vision that was much clearer and brighter than in Grozny back then.

In the afternoon, Sui Sui and Kou Kou took Anfeya, who was acting as a guide and translator, out to visit this city that was completely unfamiliar to them, while Wei Ran, who stayed behind at the hotel, went downstairs alone, leisurely. Lou had a meal, and by the way, randomly selected an Asian female reporter with the most aesthetic appearance, and accepted the interview.

"Let me do it"

Seeing that Sui Sui, a silly girl with a big food addiction, was about to get drunk by his little assistant, Wei Ran just smiled, left Kou Kou's room with the handbag at the door, and went back to the opposite door alone guest room.

Anfeya, who had a big brain, said in a low voice while looking at the cars parked around, "The test is to test whether we are qualified to control Hela, or to test whether the Hela organization is worth cultivating?"

When she came back to her senses, the computer also started the shutdown process.

I'm really curious about how big the boss's intelligence network is, which is even more exaggerated than the intelligence network described by my mother. "

Gently opening the metal box, Wei Ran's hand flicked across the 12 index finger-sized metal tubes, and finally stopped on a metal tube containing strychnine poison.

Fortunately, during the two-hour drive, let alone being stopped by the police, he didn't even see a police car.

The gloating Sui Sui had already got up and walked to the bedroom of the suite, while changing clothes, she said, "I'm going to take Kamei and Sister Kou to go shopping together later, so I won't take you with me."

Just when the girl was rushing to buy fruit for the little sisters in the hotel as a midnight snack at the last hour of the supermarket's opening, Wei Ran also walked over the green belt and left the parking lot, following the instructions left by Anfisa, Like a real black man, carrying a wine bottle prepared in advance, walking unscrupulously on the street.

Not long after, he wandered into the parking lot outside a bar not far away, and easily found a black Dodge Charger with a bouquet of flowers on the roof.

Soon, he saw a white detached villa surrounded by coconut trees less than [-] meters away from the coastline.

"Looks like Lawyer Carlos is indeed notorious." Wei Ran, who can't understand English in name, joked while watching the machine-translated comments.

While Dalia was waiting quietly, Lola pulled out the platinum necklace with bullet casings and longevity lock from the neckline of her tight T-shirt, took off the authenticator hanging on it, and followed the steps Anfeya taught her, Link it to the server.

Fortunately, although there is an 8-hour time difference between the two places, Lola obviously did not sleep, and in less than half a minute, she responded to a little fox with an OK gesture.Seeing this, Anfeiya also showed a trace of satisfaction on her small face.

"Thank you sister!"

After listening for a while, he took a step, one step at a time, from the top floor to the basement floor.

Without waiting for his movement to stop, Anfeiya also casually threw the closed parasol into the carriage, then unhurriedly took off her high heels and threw them into the carriage, and changed into flat shoes on the roof.

"forget it"

Almost at the same time as he sent this email, Lola also stuffed the string of platinum necklaces with various small objects into the ditch on her chest again, patted her mouth lightly and yawned, Leading the dog Beria who also yawned, he left the dark basement alone.

The reason why he made this choice was not only out of compassion, but also to earn favors. As for how he found the bell ringer, Wei Ran believes that with the habits of those teachers, there is a high probability that they will not this curiosity.

"Do you think this time will be the boss's test for us?"

An Feiya reminded, "I guess the boss may need to do something very important, maybe this time coming to the United States to help investigate the illegitimate child is just a cover."

"If it's a test, wouldn't it be too simple?" Anfisa muttered, frowning.

It's just that such a long time has passed, but the 12 poisonous needles kept in this box have never been used.Even, if it wasn't for preparing for this trip to the United States, he would have locked the box in a safe in the attic.

"I checked on the way here"

After thinking for a while, he tapped the keyboard and asked in German, "If I catch a traitor, should I try it directly, or should I have an interrogation? If it's the latter, do you have anything you want to know?"

By the Kaban Lake in Kazan, Lola, who was drinking beer and eating supper with Sui Xin, took out a tissue to wipe the sauce on the corner of her mouth, stretched out her little hand and asked, "Sister, can you lend me your mobile phone for a while?" good?"

Casually throwing out some bits and pieces of half-truths and half-false news to fool the reporters who were also paid for work, so he returned to the room unhurriedly and waited patiently.

"of course I remember"

"What you said is not impossible"

An Feiya brushed her short hair up to her ears, "I need a wig and clothes that are exactly the same as the boss's, and I also need heightening insoles. In addition, we need to help the boss get a fast enough car, so maybe we need to go tonight Hang out at the bar."

"Bang!"

Just like the real owner of this car, he pressed the car key and opened the door. With just one glance, he saw the fat head and big ears in the back row who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, but sleeping as if he had died. man.

"Create an alibi? And create the illusion that the bastard asked him to meet?"

At the same time, a message showing a successful connection appeared on the laptop in Wei Ran's hand.

Wei Ran also grinned, he had already thought of this situation, but there is no need to worry too much with the Katenka sisters.

In this photo frame is a blond white man with a high nose bridge wearing a neat suit.On both sides of his body, there is an exceptionally temperamental woman, a little girl with blond hair, and a little boy hugging a dog.

"So you can concentrate on hunting for illegitimate children in the hotel by yourself."

While looking around, Anfisa frowned and muttered in Italian in a low voice, "But isn't the cost of transporting weapons from Austria to the United States too high?"

And with the help of the light from the door lamp that was lit all night outside the main entrance, he could also clearly see that there was a picture frame hanging on the wall of the living room on the first floor.

"I don't know if the illegitimate child will come"

Smiling silently, Wei Ran started the car and slowly drove out of the parking lot, and drove straight to Charleston, more than 170 kilometers away, in the night.

"This is just the beginning." An Feiya paused, and said what Wei Ran asked her to do before leaving.

Thanks to the small footprint of this villa, the space on the first floor can be seen at a glance.

In less than 10 minutes, Anfeiya, who was wearing high heels, came out of the elevator, came to the side of the commercial vehicle alone, opened the door of the driver's cab and sat in, but soon, she opened the door and got in. He came out, opened the door of the rear compartment, took out a pair of flat shoes and put them on the roof, and then took out an open parasol.

Listening to the lullaby-like sound of ocean waves in the distance for a moment, Wei Ran squeezed his nose and cheekbones, which were heightened with medical tape, squatted down, took out the food box under the cover of the bushes, and put it on himself first. The night vision goggle, and then put the metal tube and the disposable syringe filled with morphine into his pocket.

After a short pause, she asked with a smile, "If necessary, who will pretend to be the boss?"

If it is the former, not only is it simple and risk-free, but it can also secretly satisfy your curiosity.

"thanks."

Sui Sui pointed in the direction of the door, "Just now I heard from Kou Kou that shortly after you entered the suite, the room diagonally opposite to us and the room near the elevator entrance lived in several reporters carrying cameras. Your location is almost public on the Internet."

So even without anyone's arrangement, Sister Katenka assigned Lola an emergency contact job, and had already agreed with her on various pronouns, and this, not only did Lola's partner Sui Xin not know , even Wei Ran and Sui Sui didn't know.

Compared with these, he has actually been thinking about another thing. When he finds the bell ringer, whether to kill him after asking all the curious things, or to find a way to bring him back to the No. 33 fishing ground in Russia.

At the same time, Sui Sui, who had changed her clothes, also put on a mask, sunglasses and a baseball cap, opened the door with a cosmetic bag, walked to the door of the room where Kou Kou was staying, and rang the doorbell.

Darya murmured something, walked out of the room in the dark, leaning on the slightly warm wall, closed the door gently, and slowly sat on the floor leaning against the cold wall, trying to suppress the crying in the dark sadness.

Putting away this inconspicuous rope and an unknown mouse pad in the corner, Wei Ran stooped and ran to the iron door leading to the stairwell as fast as he could, and sneaked into the safe The passage closed the iron door leading to the roof again.

Wei Ran muttered to himself, but he didn't take it to heart. It's the same thing whether he comes or not. Anyway, his focus this time is not to help others fight for property.

Without leaving the stairwell at all, Wei Ran glanced out through the half-closed safety door, and then waited patiently.

Before Dalia had time to type the word, the page on the screen began to jump automatically, and finally stopped at a webpage that displayed 404.

At the same time, Wei Ran, who has already checked into the hotel, is browsing the English news on the webpage with the "assistance" of Suisui's translator.

Taking a few deep breaths, Daria slowly stretched out her trembling hands, tapped the keyboard and responded with a short line of German, "Tell it, you are here to ring the death knell for it. If it can give The leaked list allows him to commit suicide to protect his family. In the end, you must ensure your own safety."

In contrast, Anfisa, who took half a day off in advance, did not return to the hotel until [-]:[-] p.m., replacing Wei Ran, who had been deliberately losing money at the poker table, and opened a bottle to buy it specially. tequila as a bet.

After thinking about it, he finally chose the third way to deal with it—ask Teacher Dalia.

With the help of mobile phone navigation provided by Anfisa, Wei Ran stopped the car at a distance of one kilometer from the target location.

Opening the second floor of the food box, Wei Ran put on rubber gloves, and carefully took out a small stainless steel box the size of a pencil case from inside.

Hearing this, Anfisa raised her pretty eyebrows, and then looked at her younger sister, who has been deliberately maintaining a different makeup, hair style, and clothes since she became Sui Sui's assistant.

If he is trustworthy, he can naturally give him the information clue of the bell ringer and let him worry about this problem.Even, if he chooses this way, maybe he doesn't have to take the risk of going to Charleston himself.

"Maybe it's a simple matter for the boss"

"So what's the matter?" Wei Ran said pretending not to care.

Taking advantage of the unmonitored section of the parking lot, Anfeiya slowed down the speed a little, and waited for the boss hiding in the carriage to jump out of the car and close the electric door, then immediately increased the speed and drove straight to the entrance of the supermarket.

As the doors of the rear compartment were snapped shut, Anfeya, who had changed her shoes, also got into the cab, started the car and drove to the supermarket that she had visited when she arrived in the afternoon.

Speaking of which, this box was a gift given to me by the other party when I met Kajianka for the first time in Shudong Bookstore.

But you can call these Americans stupid, but at least on the Internet, don’t look at Wei Ran, a historian who has made money in the world, as a greedy liar, and some people who criticize the Gravett family’s close relatives for getting married, so they have brain problems, but they are not at all. No one expressed any dissatisfaction with Carlos' lawyer who deliberately turned on him.

It was also with the help of the opening of the driver's door and the movement of Anfeiya closing the parasol, Wei Ran, who had already been prepared, immediately walked away from the stairwell with a stoop, and got into the rear compartment almost touching the floor inside.

"may not"

Sui Sui reminded solemnly, "South Carolina is ranked sixth among the top 10 shooting cases in the United States. I don't want those bastards who you sent a lawyer's letter to come here at night with guns and show us America. Dream."

According to the English label on the metal tube, it contains 20 mg of strychnine poison, which is double the lethal dose for humans.

Wei Ran pretended to be cowardly and threw the tablet in his hand aside, "We will stay in Columbia City for the next few days to see if the illegitimate child will send someone over, so if you have anything you want to play, It can be arranged as you like.”

If you only read the comment section of the news, you say that these Americans are smart. Some of those comments tried to stir up racial hatred, and threatened that the money would be made by Asians. How much will the United States suffer because of the arrival of an Asian historian? Incomprehensible remarks such as how many people lost their jobs turned out to have quite a few supporters.

Don't look at this dazed little bun face in the past, putting all his thoughts on her sister Korava and the coffee business in the library next door, but how could Sister Katenka tolerate this girl's idle time.

Thanks to the reports of reporters who received money when they arrived in the United States yesterday, the historians from China who were hired at a high price of 288 million US dollars, and the words that Carlos’ lawyer pokes the lungs of Americans in an interview can be said to have made the defense Range was pushed to the forefront of the news of the day.

The sweet-talking Lola thanked her first, then picked up Sui Xin's cell phone, and skillfully dialed Dalia's number.

"Good morning."

Until the screen was completely turned off, and it was plunged into the dark server room, only those red and green signal lights were left flashing here and there.

"clear"

Sui Xin, who was watching the drama, put a lobster tail dipped in red oil into her mouth, picked up a cold beer and responded nonchalantly, "Take it and use it."

Finally, he put on a pair of contact lenses that can camouflage a large area of ​​the white of the eyes, a mask and a baseball cap that block his face, and then he pushed open the window of the bathroom in the dark, and tried to grab an inconspicuous tree hanging from the roof of the building. The rope, covered by it and the fire stairs outside, easily climbed out of the window and climbed to the roof of the hotel.

Soon, Dalia drove to the closed time library in the middle of the night, met Lola who was waiting in advance with her dog Beria, walked into the basement of the library with her, and walked into the place where the library was placed. Room with servers.

Almost at the same time that she walked into Kou Kou's room and closed the door again, Wei Ran's eyes also left the peephole, and then went into the checked bathroom, and took out the food box from the metal book.

Logged into the mailbox and looked at the message sent by Wei Ran. The girl switched to the WeChat interface and sent a message in Russian to Lola who stayed behind in Kazan, "Remember to ask auntie to help me feed our pet."

Not only that, he also pretended to slip his mouth during the interview, saying that he was going to find an American veteran who also participated in the Vietnam War in Columbia City, and planned to ask some things from the other party's mouth.

About half an hour later, all the lights in this suite were turned off, and in the bathroom, Wei Ran also changed into the black sportswear prepared by Anfisa, and used the same cosmetics prepared by the other party, first with medical tape. He made black's iconic thick lips, and then painted his entire face, neck, hands and arms black.

Anfeiya took the room card and put it in her pocket, turned around and walked to the parking space in the distance, and drove her car towards the hotel.

"With those reporters?"

"Understood." Wei Ran responded with one word.

In the room where the server was placed, amidst the humming noise of the cooling fan, Daria stood up abruptly after reading the unsigned email that was automatically deleted after the 10-second countdown ended!
In the dim light leaked from the screen, a trace of astonishment and vigilance first appeared on her face, followed by unbelievable surprise and excitement.

Anfeiya guessed in a low voice, "Do you still remember the bonus we got from the boss? At that time, he didn't know that we were two people."

As night approached, Sui Sui, her rich girlfriend Kou Kou and their shared translator Anfeya also returned to the hotel early, and played mahjong in Kou Kou's room.

While talking, Anfeisa took out a room card and handed it to his sister, "I've already visited this place before you arrived. In this open-air parking lot, there is no surveillance or lighting around where we park, but the supermarket is open until 10pm and there seems to be a discount from 09:30 onwards."

Before entering the room, he didn't forget to put the disposable shower cap he brought from Kazan on his shoes, and then he opened the door and walked in.

Looking at the new email that popped up on the screen, Wei Ran let out a sigh of relief, tapped on the keyboard, and responded with a "good morning" that neither of them needed in this bright afternoon.

Sui Sui resolutely chose to abandon Wei Ran who was in the way, "Forget it, I'll take Kamei and Kou Kou out to play together, I don't want to be followed by so many cameras, what if that bastard child kidnaps me? manage."

Anfisa trembled subconsciously, and added in a murmur, "And last time, it only took him a few days to find out the illegitimate child that Mr. Dominique himself didn't know about.

Both sons and daughters. I don't know how many people's blood was used to buy it. Wei Ran snorted secretly, turned around and stepped on the stairs, and walked up to the second floor carefully.

However, the moment his eyes were higher than the floor on the second floor, he suddenly saw an old man in pajamas directly in front of him, aiming at him with a small revolver in his forehand!

"Bah!"

With a soft bang, the lights on the second floor were turned on, and Wei Ran could clearly see the face of the frowning old guy.He even heard the faint and even snoring from the bedroom behind the old guy.
