"And the trouble doesn't stop there." Long Noon said slowly.

"What's the trouble?" Lin Rui frowned.

"This woman's identity information can't even be found by Cobain. Long looked at him at noon and said, "You know that the satellite network built by Cobain has a high level of authority and can call almost any resource. As long as the US Department of Defense can find it, he can find it. And I also used some connections, and I started to check from the CIA, but I found nothing. ”

So the woman's identity is very secretive, and maybe she's not an American at all. Lin Rui thought for a while.

"I've had similar speculations. But just half an hour ago, I received a new request from ExxonMobil. They asked us to address the issue before the terrorists or robbers made the news public. Long Noon said slowly.

"That's a bit too much. Lin Rui frowned and said, "Could it be that the robbers will still have our consent to release the information, and why should we stop this." Besides, there are pervasive journalists, and paper can't contain fire after all. Perhaps within a few hours, the news will be known to the whole world. ”

"There's no need to worry about this, ExxonMobil has completely blocked the news. All the people inside the oil company who knew about the incident also issued gag orders. This news will never be made public. Long Noon said slowly.

"Why do you do this? Could it be that the energy of this oil company is really so great that it can even cover the sky with one hand?" Lin Rui said in surprise.

"I don't know why they did it, and we don't need to. We just take instructions and get things done. Other issues are not at all that we need to consider. I have to say that if these big chaebols really want to cover the sky with one hand, they can do it too. Long Noon said slowly, "My guess is that this woman's identity is very special, and once it is revealed, it will have a great impact. ”

"I think so. They probably did this to protect the hostage. Jason analyzed, "We can't find out who this woman is, and the kidnappers shouldn't be able to find out." And once this matter is made public, after the kidnappers know who this woman is, I am afraid that there will be stricter consequences. ”

"It seems like another nuisance. Lin Rui said helplessly.

"Very troublesome. Long Noon said, "How is it, are you ready to take on this task?"

"We have to know more. Lin Rui thought for a while and said, "If you really go to Libya, you can't run around like a headless fly, right?"

Long Noon nodded, pointed to the document and said, "Everything we know is here." If you look into it, I know it's going to be difficult, but now that we've taken on the task, there's no reason to shirk it. That's the rule of the industry. ”

Lin Rui nodded, "I understand." He turned to Jason and said, "Inform the rest of the team." We'll meet in thirty minutes. ”

In the team's combat conference room, Lin Rui explained the general situation and distributed the information to each team member. Shogishi stared at the document and read it carefully, and then fell silent.

"Actuary, there are too many unclear aspects of the task this time, and I need your analysis and opinion. Lin Rui said to him.

Kishi nodded and put the information in his hand back on the table. "This information is supposed to be provided by Mobil Oil, and there are a lot of details that are deliberately obscured, maybe they have something to hide it. For example, who is this mysterious woman, and why did she appear in a helicopter with Mobil executives in the helicopter?

If these attackers knew her identity, then there is a good chance that her special identity had something to do with the attackers' motives. But they deliberately concealed it, and in doing so, it undoubtedly increased our risk to the matter. ”

"I understand, but the employer has made their attitude clear, and no matter how much we ask for it, we won't get more from them. Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Long Xiaowu has already tried this, and even he can't get the employer to compromise." So it's impossible to get more information from employers. ”

"Then we can only think about it purely from the Libyan side. "Judging from the location of the attack, it is near the Siirt Basin in northern Libya, which is a major oil-producing area. After the fall of Gaddafi, there were many different factions active in the region.

And judging by the situation with the attack helicopters, the purpose of their attack is clear. Because they used at least three on-board anti-aircraft machine guns, which were bombarded with powerful firepower, until the helicopter was forced to make a forced landing with damage. To shoot down such a light helicopter, the kind of high-velocity machine guns they use are easy. But the whole process lasted nearly ten minutes, and they were chasing the helicopter. ”

Lin Rui nodded and said, "This shows that they are not aiming to shoot down directly, but to force the helicopter to stop." This was apparently done to preserve the personnel on board. In other words, they wanted to capture the people on the plane alive from the beginning. ”

Jason nodded, "If it's captured alive, there are generally only two reasons. Or, to demand a ransom. Either that, for terrorist purposes. Such as kidnapping hostages and then making demands for their release, or, more extremely, live-streamed beheadings. ”

"Herein lies the problem. Three days have passed, usually within three days of the abduction, when the chances of receiving a ransom or other demand are greatest, and more than three days later. This is less likely. Because in that case, either the hostages have been killed, or they are ready to hold the hostages for a long time. "Shogan said slowly.

"Actuary, can you make a detailed list and see how many armed factions with this strength are there in the Siirt region?" Lin Rui frowned.

Jiang An smiled bitterly, "It's really hard to say, I tried to count, there are more than a dozen factions of militants operating in this area alone." And because the war in Libya has just ended, these armed men who once opposed Gaddafi have won a big battle, and all of them are strong.

It was already holding weapons and equipment supported by NATO, but it also seized a large amount of military equipment from the former government army. Casually pull the armament of a small faction, and there are such anti-aircraft machine guns. There are no less than seven or eight armed factions that meet the conditions for attacking helicopters. ”

This news made Lin Rui feel helpless. There is no way, these former opposition forces are now turned over and become masters, all of them have a certain scale of armed forces, and from time to time there is a little friction. It's no wonder that the big oil companies don't feel safe
