Chapter 2256
Big Bang
"We have not obtained permission from local law enforcement, and this matter must not be exposed. Put away your guns quickly and leave this place first." Stonebridge patiently persuaded. He knew that the overall situation was more important and that we should not lose sight of the big picture. After persuading him, he reported to the communication equipment: "Captain, B1 and B2 go to the evacuation point." Although his voice was steady, he felt helpless and unwilling in his heart. There were too many variables in this mission, which caught them off guard.
"It's over, retreat." Colonel Kechuan gave the order helplessly. He was in the command center, and learned the situation on the scene through various equipment. Although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to make such a decision. He knew that without the permission of local law enforcement, continuing the operation would only bring more troubles and might even endanger the lives of the team members.
Inside the apartment.
Long Zhan and his three companions also began to evacuate. However, during the evacuation, the atmosphere was not harmonious. Shakova and Novin were arguing fiercely.
"What are you doing?" Noven looked at Shakova with dissatisfaction and asked. She was still dissatisfied with some of Shakova's previous behaviors, thinking that she was impulsive and willful, and did not take into account the overall interests of the team.
"Destroy the body for Russia." Shakova responded without showing any weakness, with a hint of stubbornness in her eyes. She believed that her actions were in the interests of Russia and there was nothing wrong with it. In her heart, the interests of the country were above all else.
"The boss said we should try not to make a big deal out of it." Novin frowned. She tried to remind Shakova to consider the overall situation and not ruin the entire mission plan because of her personal ideas.
"He's not my boss," Shakova said disdainfully, with a hint of arrogance on her face. She didn't seem to take Colonel Coltrane's orders seriously. In her opinion, she had the right to make judgments and decisions based on the actual situation.
"I've had enough," Noven couldn't help cursing. She was very annoyed by Shakova's attitude. Shakova's stubbornness and willfulness made her feel that teamwork became extremely difficult, and the execution of the task was affected.
"Really?" Shakova grinned with a smug smile, as if she was deliberately trying to irritate Noven. Then, she made a surprising move, lighting the flip lighter in her hand and throwing it a few meters away. There was a hint of madness in her eyes, as if she wanted to prove that her decision was correct through this action.
"Ding-ling-dang."
The metal flip lighter rolled on the ground, making a crisp sound, and landed right at the door of Love's apartment. At this time, the house was already filled with gas, and the pungent smell became stronger and stronger, as if it would be ignited at any time. The lit lighter was thrown over, just like lighting the primer of a gun, instantly igniting the gas in the house.
"Boom~"
A deafening roar was heard, as if the whole world was shaking. Love's house was instantly filled with raging flames, and the flames gushed out from the windows and doors for more than ten meters, like an angry fire dragon, devouring everything around. The powerful explosion shattered all the glass in the house, and the glass fragments flew like raindrops. Some thinner walls were also blown down, raising dust all over the sky. The whole house was instantly reduced to ruins, with bricks and rubble scattered all over the ground.
The police officers who were downstairs were hit by the debris and wood chips falling from the roof and screamed in pain. They were originally here to deal with the situation on the scene, but they did not expect to encounter this sudden explosion. For a moment, the downstairs was in chaos, and the police were dodging the falling debris everywhere, and the scene was in chaos. Some police officers were hit on the head and bleeding; some police officers were hit on the legs by the rubble, fell to the ground, and groaned in pain. Shakova, Long Zhan and Nowen took advantage of the chaos and quickly rushed to the evacuation point... This mission, which was originally full of twists and turns, became more complicated and difficult because of this series of changes, and how they will face the next situation is still unknown...
During the evacuation, Long Zhan looked at Shakova and Nowen, and was secretly worried. He knew that although this mission had come to an end for the time being, the conflicts within the team might affect future operations. And the "Zheba" that was taken away was still missing. It was like a time bomb that could bring great danger to the world at any time. They must find a way to get the "Zheba" back as soon as possible, and solve the problems within the team at the same time, in order to complete this arduous task. At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on them, casting long shadows, as if sighing for the unknown challenges they were about to face...
The hairy man and the driver were in a panic, running away like two wild beasts being hunted by hunters, panting and full of fear. Finally, they came to a building with a sense of age. At first glance, the building had a rough and unruly "steamed style", and the walls were full of mottled marks, like scars left by the years. Without hesitation, they walked straight to one of the largest houses in the building, which seemed to be the core of this chaotic place.
As soon as you step into this so-called gangster headquarters, you can feel a strong smell of illegality. At the entrance, several fierce men stood like door gods, holding automatic rifles tightly in their hands, with fierceness and vigilance in their eyes, as if ready to attack intruders at any time. The scene inside the house was even more unbearable to look at, with several tables placed in a mess. On one of the tables, someone was skillfully dispensing white powder, which flashed a strange light under the light, as if telling of sin; on the other side of the table, there was a large amount of cash piled up, and the stacks of brand new banknotes exuded an alluring smell, but it could not cover up the dirty transactions behind it.
"Open it and take the stuff out." As soon as the hairy man came in, he couldn't wait to shout at the driver, with an irrepressible urgency in his voice. At this moment, in his eyes, the black box was the key to open the door to wealth, and he had long been blinded by greed.
The driver had secretly peeked at the password of the black box before, and now he squatted down skillfully and quickly operated on the black box. With a slight "click" sound, the black box slowly opened, and he took out something like a USB flash drive from it and handed it respectfully to the hairy man. The hairy man was overjoyed and held this small object tightly, as if he was holding his own future.
The hairy man took the USB drive and rushed to the inner room. He quickly opened his laptop and plugged the USB drive in. Now, since he didn't have the buyer's information, the only way to exchange this mysterious object for the money he dreamed of was to find out what was inside. Only by figuring this out, he would know how to find a buyer again and sell it at a high price.
However, when the USB drive was inserted into the computer, the familiar system interface did not appear, but rows of green codes popped up. These codes were like mysterious elves, jumping and increasing rapidly on the screen, so fast that it was hard to keep up. In the blink of an eye, the entire computer page was covered with dense codes.
"What the hell is this?" The hairy man stared at the screen full of codes with wide eyes, bewildered. He couldn't understand these complicated symbols at all, and felt like his head was about to explode, with one head bigger than two heads.
"This thing doesn't look simple. I think it might be from the military." Toppa, the driver following behind, guessed. He frowned slightly, with a hint of worry and curiosity in his eyes.
"Crack~"
A crisp sound broke the brief silence. The computer seemed unable to withstand such a huge computing pressure. After just a short while, it was damaged due to overheating. Wisps of black smoke came out of the computer, accompanied by a pungent smell of burning, filling the air. "This is too outrageous." The hairy man was shocked. A computer couldn't even open this mysterious USB flash drive, which made him more convinced that this thing was extraordinary. At the same time, his desire for wealth became stronger and stronger. He said with shining eyes: "How can I find a buyer?" In his opinion, the more unique this thing is, the higher its value is, which means that a lot of money is waving to him.
"I don't know either." Topar scratched his head helplessly, with a wry smile on his face. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Maybe Heim will buy it."
"Heim doesn't deal with people like you." The hairy man shook his head with a hint of disdain in his eyes. He knew Heim's style of doing things and his network of contacts very well. A small character like Topar would never be in Heim's eyes.
"As long as the item is valuable enough, anyone will negotiate for it. This is a gift from heaven. Millions of dollars can completely turn our lives around. I don't have any connections in this area, so I need your help to sell it." Topa quickly flattered the hairy man. His eyes were full of expectation, hoping to convince the hairy man to take a risk.
"Okay, I'll do it. I'll make some contact and find a chance to arrange a meeting with Heim." The hairy man was finally tempted by the money and decided to take the risk. After that, he patted Toppa on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Toppa, once Heim intervenes, things will become very complicated. Are you ready?"
"Well, I'm ready." The driver named Topa nodded firmly. For the tempting wealth, he had given it all, and his eyes revealed a determination.
"Very good." The hairy man gave Topa a hug, as if conveying a kind of strength, and also announcing that the matter was decided. At this moment, they seemed to be standing at the crossroads of fate, but they had no idea what kind of dangers and challenges were waiting for them ahead.
……
Team B base camp.
"There was a huge explosion on the streets of Tel Aviv, many people died, and Loew died. What happened?" As soon as Long Zhan and his team returned to the base camp, Colonel Kechuan, with a gloomy face, went straight to Shakova to question her. After all, Shakova had forced herself to take the command of this operation. Now that such a big thing has happened, she, as the commander, must naturally take the main responsibility. Colonel Kechuan's eyes were full of anger and questioning, as if he wanted to see through Shakova.
"He tried to pick up a weapon and fight back." Sharkova said nonchalantly while slowly taking off her bulletproof vest. Her expression looked extremely calm, as if all this was just a trivial matter.
"You're really saving yourself the trouble." Colonel Coltrane couldn't help but say in a sarcastic tone. He was very dissatisfied with Shakova's nonchalant attitude. Such a big accident was made lightly in her mouth.
"Nothing is easy." Shakova still looked indifferent. She raised her head slightly, with a hint of disdain in her eyes, as if she didn't take Colonel Coltrane's accusations to heart.
"Corporal, is that true?" Colonel Coltrane turned his gaze to Novan and asked seriously. He hoped to get a more objective statement from Novan, after all, Novan was also a participant in the operation.
"I didn't see him holding a weapon, but I heard him call you a traitor." Novin looked at Shakova with a strong questioning look in her eyes. Her words were like a bombshell, instantly making the atmosphere more tense. She was also puzzled by Shakova's behavior and hoped that Shakova could give a reasonable explanation.
"You didn't see it because you were being beaten next door at the time. Some Russians don't like to cooperate with the West, so..." Sharkova tried to explain, but she didn't finish her words.
"Who fired the first shot in the apartment?" Colonel Coltrane interrupted Shakova mercilessly, his voice raised a few notes, and his words were full of strong dissatisfaction. At this moment, he was more concerned about the truth of the incident, especially the key link of the shooting, because it directly led to the situation getting out of control.
"It's me, but..." Shakova was about to defend herself.
"The mission order is to keep a low profile." Colonel Coltrane interrupted her again, his tone becoming more severe. He emphasized the importance of the mission order. Shakova's unauthorized shooting clearly violated this order and brought serious consequences to the entire operation.
"Orders? I don't take orders from anyone. This is my mission." Shakova retorted sternly. She straightened her back and her eyes revealed a kind of stubbornness and obstinacy. In her mind, her mission took priority over everything else and she didn't think there was anything wrong with her approach.
"Is it possible to resolve this matter quietly?" Colonel Kechuan looked at Nowen again, hoping to get an objective judgment from her.
"It's hard to say, Boss. I can only say it's possible." Novin's answer was quite conservative. She knew very well that the situation was complicated and changeable, and although she was not sure whether it could be resolved quietly, she also felt that Sharkova's handling method was too radical.
"You're talking nonsense. We have no choice." Sharkova said unconvincedly. She crossed her arms over her chest, with a tough expression on her face, insisting on her point of view.
"Why did Russia send you alone, without even a team or a partner?" Chhetri couldn't help but ask, his eyes full of confusion. In his opinion, why did Russia only send Shakova for such an important mission? There seemed to be some secret behind it. (End of this chapter)
