Battlefield Contractor

When Lin Rui and Jiang An walked into Wolfe's office, they met Wolf who was gloomy.

"Mr. Wolf." Lin Rui put the information in his hand on the table, "This is the information I promised to retrieve. Now the property has returned to the original owner, and I promise that all the contents on it will not leak out. ."

Wolfe said nervously, "You came just right. Even if you didn't come, I'm going to send someone to find you."

"What's wrong, could it be that the hostage incident has made the latest progress" Lin Rui said with a slight eyebrow.

"Yes. The other party has asked for a ransom." Wolff said solemnly.

Lin Rui moved his eyebrows slightly, and this development made him feel a little surprised. Because he is almost certain that the secret society will never be simply for ransom. So he still asked Wolfe calmly, "What did they request through. Can we trace the phone number or email address?"

"Neither, their way of delivering information is primitive." Wolfe smiled bitterly, "They use people to deliver letters."

"The letter is delivered by someone, so who is the letter and where is he?" Lin Rui said in amazement.

Wolf nodded and said, "The messenger is under control. It's right next door, and a guard is watching him. The letter sent is also very strange. It was typed with an old typewriter. There are several grammar and spelling points. It’s a mistake. Obviously the person who wrote the letter is not very proficient in English."

He said that he handed the letter in his hand to Lin Rui. Lin Rui looked at it and said in surprise, "200,000 US dollars, it seems that the amount of ransom they demanded is not very high. What are you going to do?"

"The executives of the company are already negotiating urgently. This lady's identity is extremely special and she was invited by our company. If something happens to her, it will be very detrimental to the company. I think if it is really just the ransom The price should be completely acceptable. The top of the company may decide to spend money to avoid disasters and pay the ransom." Wolf nodded.

Behind ExxonMobil is the Rockefeller consortium. This institution extends its sphere of influence to all sectors of the national economy by constantly controlling financial institutions. It is a big chaebol in a country that is truly rich and enemy. To make a joke, extorting two hundred thousand dollars from them is simply too despised.

Lin Rui shook his head, "This news is suspicious. I suggest you don't believe it."

"Why" Wolf frowned.

"Because this is like joking at all." Lin Rui shook his head, "Ask a personal question, Mr. Wolf, what is your position in the company?"

"The deputy head of the security department of the Libyan regional project." Wolf frowned.

Lin Rui shrugged and said, "This position shouldn't be too high. But your salary can reach this amount in a few weeks. Am I right"

Wolf hesitated and nodded.

"It is estimated that the 200,000 US dollars will not be enough to buy the light helicopter that crash-landed after being hit. The kidnappers with a little bit of common sense know it too. People who can afford to ride in a private helicopter are not worth that low. Besides, your planes The logo of ExxonMobil Petroleum Company on the list is very obvious. It is impossible for the kidnappers to demand so much for blackmailing large companies like you, which rank among the world's seven largest oil companies." Lin Rui shook his head.

"Yes, we also doubted the authenticity of this incident at first. But the person who sent the letter brought the hostage token." Wolf sighed, "The cufflinks of Mr. Robert, the project manager, the lady His ring and pilot's glasses. These are absolutely impossible to impersonate." He pointed to the contents in a plastic bag on the table.

Lin Rui smiled bitterly, "This is even more problematic. This project director, Mr. Robert, is undoubtedly a person who pays attention to taste, because the cufflinks are made of platinum and diamonds. That lady's ring is even more powerful, but it's not a ruby. The value of the ring is very high. The inner wall of the ring is also engraved with the family crest, which looks like an antique. The value of these two things alone is estimated to be almost worth the ransom. Are these kidnappers idiots?"

Jiang An was also dumbfounded. He shook his head and said, "This thing is really weird. I suggest you consider it carefully."

Wolf frowned, "I also feel a little strange in this, so I am very worried. However, I can't influence the decision of the company's top executives. Maybe the kidnappers don't know their identity. And they don't know these things. the value of."

Lin Rui said solemnly, "The kidnappers dispatched three armed pickup trucks for this operation. The range of the dual anti-aircraft machine guns is not very long. However, they made an accurate landing of the helicopter. This shows that they know the flight route of the helicopter well. It was carefully planned in advance.

They did not choose to shoot down the helicopter, but made a forced landing by shooting to cause damage to the helicopter. All this is also carefully arranged. It's not just shooting randomly. All this shows that they have plans and goals, and they will never know who the passengers on board are. "

"I understand, so I am also very troubled." Wolf said helplessly. "But the decision is not with me. The company has already decided to deal with the kidnappers. In their opinion, this is a great thing, after all, it can be settled with very little money."

"The problem is, it's not fair. Why did the kidnappers put forward such a simple condition. There must be other problems in it." Lin Rui paced back and forth, "Where is the person delivering the letter?

"I was monitored, but we had to let him go in the end." Wolfe shook his head. "After all, the hostages are still in their hands. We have to use him to get in touch with the kidnappers. We must let him notify the kidnappers and tell them. , We accept this deal."

"Perhaps when we let him go, we can follow the kidnapper and find the kidnapper's nest." Jiang An frowned.

"I also proposed this idea, but it was rejected. The company's senior executives thought it was unnecessary to take a risk. Once they found someone was following, they might cancel the transaction and kill the hostage. This kind of thing has not happened before. So it's a hostage. For security purposes, we are required to guarantee the success of this transaction. We must not disturb them." Wolff said helplessly.

Lin Rui smiled bitterly, "You think too simple. I'm sure that even if you follow this messenger, you won't get any useful information. Because this ransom demand is simply a smokescreen for the kidnappers to divert their attention. What they want is not the ransom. , It must be something else. The reason why they offered the ransom demand is probably just to buy time for another purpose." To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for a monthly recommendation ticket.
