Chapter 796: Transaction in Advance (asking for monthly ticket)
"Forget it, get out of here first!"
Gu Ji looked around, glanced at the passers-by who were fleeing in panic near the alley entrance, then turned back to the car.
Gillian also understood what he meant.
After all, they are now playing the role of PM mercenaries. If a gunfight breaks out in the streets of Washington, the capital, they will inevitably face the problem of being wanted by the police, so they naturally have to run away as soon as possible.
But before leaving, she took the mobile phone from the Indian's body.
"Fuck! If we weren't so outnumbered this time, they would never have been able to escape!"
On the way back, Carlos was still a little unwilling.
If we can capture one of his men alive, we might be able to get a lot of important information about Riddle.
"Don't worry, if we suddenly kill one of his men this time, it will definitely mess up Riddle's mentality."
Gu Ji narrowed his eyes and rearranged the magazine of his pistol.
In fact, he is already very satisfied with the current result.
Because from the very beginning, they were putting pressure on the target to induce the other side to send reinforcements.
The ending was just as he wanted.
And the fact that the other party was so eager to evacuate the scene proved that these people had no intention of engaging in a head-on fight with them from the beginning. The left rear-end double-teaming and ramming was only to allow their companions' white car to escape pursuit.
But what I didn't expect was.
Gu Ji reacted so quickly that he took care of one of them immediately.
This forced the other party to flee quickly.
Now, the sudden death of one of their men was enough to throw them into temporary chaos.
"Damn it, what did you say?"
"Boss, it's my fault for not doing my job well. I didn't expect them to come to my door so soon."
Inside a single-family house in the northern suburbs of Washington, DC.
Riddle's expression changed completely when he heard the report from his mustache-faced subordinate:
"Tell the people below to prepare and move the transaction forward to tomorrow noon!"
"Tomorrow? But Boss, we haven't found a new middleman yet, and the identity of Cohen is still unknown, right..."
"Do as I say!"
"Yes!"
……
"Transaction advanced?"
As soon as Gu Ji and others returned to the safe house, they received the latest intelligence.
Riddle changed the transaction information on the dark web half an hour ago, confirming that the time would be changed to 12 noon tomorrow, and the location would be set in Rock Creek Park on the northwest outskirts of the city.
The US Department of Defense will purchase the Rx-2.8, which can invade military weapons control systems, from him for US$7 million.
This proved that Riddle was indeed panicking.
Because O'Connor just died last night, it would be difficult for him to find a new middleman in such a short time.
Therefore, it is highly likely that he will ask his trusted subordinates to take action.
Now he has become the target of public criticism.
The US officials want the Rx-7 intrusion system in his hands, Xia Guo wants to capture him, and the PM mercenaries want his life.
It can be described as besieged on all sides.
If we continue to drag it out, the situation will only become increasingly unfavorable.
It would be better to carry out the transaction in advance and use the Rx-7 system to attract these forces to fight each other. When the fight is almost over, Riddle will bring people out and reap the benefits.
But there was one thing that Gu Ji couldn’t understand.
Why must the transaction location be set in the capital?
Doesn't this clearly tell others that he is now in Washington, DC!
You know, based on the existing intelligence information.
Riddle's resources and influence are mainly in Central America. Even if he doesn't return to Guatemala, he will at least set up his forces on the US-Mexico border.
Thus.
Even if something really went wrong, at least they could take advantage of the chaos to cross the border to Mexico and seek help from reinforcements.
This doesn't fit in with Riddle's usual cautious style...
Just when Gu Ji fell into deep thought.
Carlos returned with a document in his hand:
"The higher-ups have approved the plan. Tomorrow at noon, the Ministry of National Defense will send a middleman to conduct the transaction with the seller. We will continue to play the role of Cohen and the mercenaries and lurk nearby. Once we are sure that the transaction is successful, we will start to rob it. At that time, the middleman will cooperate with us in the play to lure Riddle out!"
"I always feel that the trading location is set up a little strangely."
"Don't worry, we have set up a dragnet all around. As long as the mysterious seller dares to show up, he will definitely not be able to escape!"
Compared to Gu Ji's worries.
Carlos seemed much calmer, perhaps because he was fighting on home soil.
This is Washington, D.C., after all.
The FBI headquarters, CIA headquarters, the Department of Defense's Joint Special Operations Command Center, and all kinds of elite forces are located here. Even if the famous Al-Qaeda comes, he has to leave on his knees.
"Okay, I'll notify my people to get ready!"
Gu nodded and contacted Lei Wanshan at the command center, asking Gao Bo and others to bring the stinger and make preparations in advance near the transaction location.
Because the transaction takes place in a natural park.
This wild forest environment is most suitable for the stinger to play its role.
It's snowing on the long street at night, and tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
All parties are preparing for tomorrow's transaction.
Fortunately, Riddle changed the time temporarily, leaving many countries with no time to react, such as Russia, Israel, Britain, France and other countries that were farther away.
It has only been two days since I received the transaction news.
Even specific combat plans may not be formulated, let alone dispatching intelligence and armed forces.
This also greatly reduces the possibility of a large-scale melee like the ones that occurred in Brazil and Iran.
Early the next morning.
Gu Ji was ready, put on the black mask again, and went to the transaction site with Carlos, Gillian and others to prepare for an ambush.
Rock Creek Park is located in northwest Washington, near the National Zoo.
It covers an area of more than 7 square kilometers. In addition to natural resources such as woods and streams, there are also many artificial golf courses, equestrian fields, picnic areas, etc., so there are many people coming and going.
Just after a night of heavy snow.
The woods in the park have long been covered with a layer of white frost, and the streams that used to sparkle are now sealed by ice, like silver ribbons.
Gu Ji and his group walked along the winding path in the woods, their feet making a "crunching" sound on the snow.
"The transaction location is probably around here."
Carlos grinned and began to direct his men to set up a watch position.
The location he was talking about was an open space by the stream at the bottom of the slope.
Picking up the telescope, Gu Ji first looked up at the sky to see if there were any unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, but due to the dense branches, his vision was limited, so he began to observe his surroundings.
Judging from the time, Gao Bo and the others should have arrived.
"Gu Ji just sent a signal, they are already in position."
"Ok."
"Shh, it's really cold today..."
500 meters west of Gu Ji’s location.
In a dense forest.
Gao Bo and his group were wearing white outdoor training uniforms, MC camouflage tactical vests, holding fully equipped Super Duty rifles, and were lying on the snow.
Not far from them were the HRT special police led by Jamie.
There is no way, since FB must be present for joint law enforcement.
In addition to them, there are also CIA intelligence armed forces and special operations forces from the Department of Defense on standby nearby.
"There are so few people around here. It's so eerie and quiet..."
"Brother Baron, is there something wrong with this transaction?"
North side of the trading location.
Barron and others were wearing white windbreakers and hiding behind the branches of bushes covered with white frost, observing their surroundings.
The five subordinates Wang Xueming left behind.
There was only a thin guy with single eyelids who knew a little English and could barely communicate with him.
Barron rubbed his tactical gloves:
"It's hard to say, but what is certain is that Riddle should not be here. At least, he will not appear in front of that Cohenlu."
He also saw the news about Cohen's appearance in Washington and reported it to the 7472 organization.
"So what should we do, Baron?"
"Wait!"
Barron spat out a word and put down the telescope. "Wait until Cohen shows up, then Riddle will most likely show up, and then we can take action..."
Time passed by minute by minute.
Everyone hid where they were and waited for their target to appear.
And on a hillside 900 meters away from the stream.
Few people would notice that among the mess of ice and snow, there is a bunch of brown-green dead leaves, as if floating in the air.
Upon closer inspection, what was hidden under the camouflage of dead leaves was actually a pitch-black gun muzzle.
It was Adams and his men.
"Captain, the transaction time is approaching!"
"Test the wind speed."
"It's staying at an average of 15 to 21 mph, the problem is the wind coming off the creek keeps changing."
A mercenary with a scar on his eyebrow was holding an M151 positioning and observation system and acting as an observer.
A distance of nearly one kilometer is already considered long-range shooting.
In this distance range, any slight factor may affect the final landing point of the bullet, so it must be strictly considered.
Adams kept adjusting the sights according to his deputy's reminders.
He was holding a Desert Technology SRS military silenced bolt-action sniper rifle, which was enough to handle the current shooting distance.
"Captain, someone seems to have appeared!"
"They should be from the Ministry of Defense. Ignore them and focus on the fake Cohen and Riddle. We must not let them go today..."
As he spoke, Adams had already debugged the basic parameters.
And in the field of view of the scope.
Several tall, strong men wearing black hats appeared by the stream one after another. One of them was holding a black briefcase. They were the middlemen sent by the Ministry of Defense to carry out the transaction.
The leader, a round-faced middle-aged man, kept looking at his watch with his lips moving.
It seems that he is communicating with someone behind the hidden headphones.
The trading time of 12 o'clock is approaching.
Suddenly, two or three figures appeared faintly on the slope of the south bank of the stream, which immediately aroused the vigilance of all parties.
"Someone's coming! Watch out!"
Carlos reminded.
Gu Ji immediately picked up the telescope.
Since the three men were wearing tactical hats and masks and their faces could not be seen clearly, it was impossible to determine whether they were Riddle's men. However, it seemed that the US officials should have already set up controls around the area in advance for this transaction.
It would be difficult for ordinary people to get close to the transaction location by chance.
"Watch out for that backpack!"
Gillian warned.
Among the three new people, there was a man carrying a black backpack who looked extremely suspicious.
As the two sides get closer.
The middleman of the Ministry of National Defense also began to be cautious, and several of his men put their right hands on their waists to be ready to deal with any emergencies that might arise at any time.
Until the two stood close together.
I don't know what they said, but the round-faced middleman and the backpacker opened their backpacks and suitcases at the same time. It seemed that the transaction had already begun.
Gu Ji saw with his own eyes that the backpacker was showing off the electronic device in his hand that looked like an octopus router.
It's just different from before.
This time he didn't even see the system prompt.
Logically speaking, the system gave a prompt of "found recycling game items" last time at the factory in Iran's secret base, which was the same distance away.
Is this thing fake?
At the same time, the Defense Department's middleman also opened the laptop in the box, apparently to verify the funds with the other party.
A few minutes later, Carlos suddenly spoke in the headset:
"The deal is about to end, get ready!"
"Wait, are you sure this thing is real?"
Gu Ji stopped him temporarily.
Unexpectedly, Carlos' tone was extremely confident: "It's confirmed. The other party used this thing to invade two Predator fighters at the nearby Fort McNair Army Base! Go!"
"chug……"
The voice just fell.
Bobcat and others on the side pulled the trigger one after another.
One of the sellers' men was unable to dodge and was shot dead on the spot.
The remaining two people and the middleman from the Ministry of Defense grabbed their belongings and fled in all directions, looking for shelter.
Although Gu Ji always felt that this deal came too easy.
But now the arrow was on the string, he had to shoot it, so he could only follow Carlos and others to launch a surprise attack down the slope.
According to a pre-written script, the middleman of the Ministry of Defense will cooperate with them in acting.
The two sides exchanged fire back and forth, engaging in a seemingly fierce exchange of fire.
The remaining two of Riddle's men were caught in the middle and suffered from both sides.
The backpacker in charge of the transaction failed to dodge and fell headfirst onto the frozen stream, with his hat falling off.
See this scene.
The pupils of Gu Ji's eyes suddenly shrank into a line.
These facial features...
It's Riddle!?
He couldn't believe that Riddle would show up at the transaction scene so "brazenly" and only bring two of his men with him, so much so that he was stunned for a moment.
"Damn it! Two targets appeared at the same time!"
"Shoot Riddle first."
"Target Riddle, turn right! Right nine!"
"Transferred."
"sudden--!"
The moment the deputy spoke.
Adams quickly turned the muzzle of the gun to lock onto the target and decisively pulled the trigger.
There was a muffled sound.
Delay of about one second.
Under the field of view of the high-power optical sight, the bullet crossed the snowy forest and landed on the target Riddle.
A cloud of blood mist suddenly exploded from his chest and he fell to the ground.
"Hit the target."
Adams spoke calmly, then calmly pushed and pulled the rotating bolt to reload, as if he had known that this shot would kill Riddle, "Next..."
"There are snipers!!"
"Look for cover!"
Jillian yelled.
Gu Ji watched helplessly as Riddle was shot through the chest and fell in a pool of blood, dying on the spot.
The mysterious seller who has fooled countries countless times.
Just die?
