Chapter 346: Investigation
Lin Rui looked at Jiang Andao, "At least we, like them, have five days to figure out what exactly they are doing." β
"You want to go to the Duchess's land, and the British Durramo will investigate" Shogishi frowned, "I think about this matter, you'd better think about it." After all, our task is to deal with the hostage incident, and if we lead the hostages to be killed, we cannot afford this responsibility. β
"I understand, but you should also understand that this hostage deal is a big scam at all. It is absolutely impossible for the people of the Order to hand over the Duchess. What we can do is to investigate and find out the true purpose of the Secret Society. This is the real way to free the hostages. Lin Rui said slowly. "We don't know where the Duchess and the other hostages are being held at this time. But this does not mean that the people of the Order do not know. β
"You're trying to figure out the GuΓ² Secret Society's people to find the Duchess's place of detention," Shogishi frowned.
"Yes, the Order's unusual activity in the area around Duramo shows that they have something to do in that area, and we can use this as an entry point to see what exactly they are doing, and even get news about the Duchess from them. Lin Rui explained, "It's Monday, and there are still five days until the weekend morning, and if we find the location of the duchess, then it will be easy." β
"They will definitely not exchange hostages for ransom, so they will definitely continue to hold the duchess and others. And when they think they've drawn everyone's attention to the hostage deal. Then the place where the hostages are really guarded will not be put in too many people. We could have raided the hostage holding sites and rescued all the hostages while the deal was in progress. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;" Jiang An moved his eyebrows slightly.
"Yes, lies are a wonderful thing, and sometimes lies are repeated too much, and they are also deceptive to themselves. When they emphasize the hostage deal with Mobil Oil, they will also let their guard down somewhat. As long as they think that the other party has taken the bait, this vigilance will definitely drop to a certain extent. Lin Rui said slowly, "And if we find the place where the hostages are held, we can take this opportunity to rescue them." β
"Do we need to inform Wolf about this?"
"No, the members of the Order are everywhere. The fact that ExxonMobil's helicopter was intercepted and kidnapped by the Secret Society with such precision at least shows that their company is not monolithic, and there must be a secret list of members of the Secret Society. Otherwise, how could their helicopter flight plan and route be so accurately mastered by the Secret Society," Lin Rui shook his head and said, "If we sue SΓΉ Wolf, there is even a danger of leaking secrets, and we will do this ourselves." β
"Okay, let's go back and plan. Shogishi nodded.
After returning to his residence, Lin Rui gathered all the team members and told them what he thought. The team members agreed. After all, none of them wanted to be involved in a hostage deal that was completely unbacked by any intelligence, because that would most likely be a trap.
Compared with Lin Rui's plan, although it is a bit risky, it is an opportunity to seize the initiative by himself.
Lin Rui nodded and said, "Since we have all agreed, I will divide the task, and I will directly participate in this operation with Jiang'an and Wang Haoze." The remaining three of you stayed behind to take care of the affairs with ExxonMobil. Keep me informed of any updates. We will follow the border through Libya to Durramo to investigate. β
"Why don't we go with you," Yelena frowned.
"Because there are too many people, the target is too big, and once exposed, it is very likely that the hostages will be in danger. And I need someone here to deal with ExxonMobil. At least until Saturday, to make them think we're still here and haven't left. Lin Rui said, "I said it so clearly, do you understand?"
"See, you're worried that there are people from the Order within our employer, so you need someone here to create a false impression. Let them think we didn't leave. Yelena nodded.
"It's good to understand. Wang Haoze, you prepare and check the equipment and vehicles. We'll leave in fifteen minutes. Try to be careful not to attract anyone's attention. Lin Rui nodded, "The place we are going to is very dangerous. β
Durramo is not dangerous at all, it is a very peaceful African land. It's like it hasn't been polluted by any modern civilization. It consists of three small towns, one of which is a port city near the sea. Most of the Africans here are fishermen, and even the air smells faintly fishy.
Lin Rui and the others hid the car outside the city, and several people walked in together. They were dressed like mercenaries that were commonplace in Africa, with their faces wrapped in sand bandanas, grayish-yellow desert camouflage, and weapons slung over their shoulders. This outfit was enough for the local blacks to avoid them.
There were obviously a lot of mercenaries like them in this place, so the locals were a little afraid of them but not surprised.
"Where are we going?" said Wang Haoze in a low voice.
"The way to find a gathering place for the members of the Order is simple. Lin Rui lowered his voice and said, "Pay attention to energy." The Order's vehicles require fuel, and many of their electronic communication devices need to be recharged regularly. β
"I see, just find the gas station and ask. After Wang Haoze thought about it, he immediately nodded, "And in every port in this place, those fishermen are using batteries." Therefore, many gas stations offer charging services that also provide charging for a fee. Maybe for a small fee, you can get the news from the locals. β
"Be smart, but be careful not to be seen. Lin Rui nodded.
"What about you," Wang Haoze frowned.
Lin Rui looked at Jiang'an Road, "Let's go and find out where the secret society is most likely to hide, such as abandoned farms, garbage stations, factories, etc., places where there are few people but it is convenient to hide vehicles." Everyone kept the communication open, and as soon as they found something, they immediately sent a signal through guΓ² wireless communication to notify others. And whether we find any clues or not, after an hour and a half, we will have to come back here to assemble. β
"If you don't find it, you'll come back to gather," Wang Haoze said a little strangely.
"That's right, even if we don't find them, we have to come back and assemble and compare and summarize some of the information we have gathered. There's always something to discover. Unless the Secret Society isn't here, they're sure to be able to find clues in this seemingly unrelated information. Remember, we don't have much time. "The shore is strictly sΓΉ authentic
