Chapter 1342: Secretly Arriving in Cuba
Chapter 1342: Secretly Arriving in Cuba
In fact, it is not just the Russians living in high latitudes who long for sunshine and beaches. Londoners, who live in the famous foggy city and always carry an umbrella when going out, also prefer to go on vacation to areas with plenty of sunshine.
For example, Eastbourne, located in the southeast of England, is close to the famous Beachy Head, and the area behind the cliffs is regarded as the sunniest place in England.
As a result, the small town of Eastbourne has become the first choice for domestic tourists, especially Londoners, for short vacations in the country. Every summer, the six-kilometer-long beach here is crowded with tourists speaking with a London accent.
However, Eastbourne looked much quieter in winter. When Jack drove a banana yellow Austin Mini and brought Anna to the cruise terminal here, someone had been waiting here for a long time.
"This car looks like it suits you." Reese was obviously still a little upset about someone complaining that he had stolen a vintage Citroen 2CV.
The Austin Mini is the little green car driven by Mr. Bean. Its shape is actually somewhat similar to the Citroen 2CV, but it looks more "sissy".
"Like you said, the only cars that can be easily stolen nowadays are old cars like this." Jack shrugged nonchalantly, because Anna was driving most of the time and he was busy messaging Justin.
There are really too many things to arrange, considering that the action he is going to make this time might be a little bit big and there will be a lot of people involved.
Even though he had already prepared smoke bombs (Decima Organization) and a scapegoat (Killer Han) in advance, Jack even deliberately ran to the door of MI6 and wandered around.
But out of caution, he had to ensure that all those involved in the operation would not be linked to keywords such as "Caribbean Sea" and "island" by intelligence agencies such as the CIA afterwards.
The whereabouts of the "Shangri-La" inspection team to Europe, or of course the "tour group", were exposed to the spotlight of European media throughout the entire process. Although most of the "family members" did not actually show their faces, photos of Chris and a group of senior executives frequently appeared on the front pages of various media.
Firstly, the leadership of Shangri-La has always been low-key, especially the boss Chris, who has always been hidden behind the scenes, unlike the usual American tycoons who always make shocking remarks to attract attention.
This rare collective appearance is itself a big news.
Moreover, "Shangri-La" has now transformed from a "dark horse" among Internet companies into a super unicorn enterprise.
Unicorn is a term used in the venture capital industry to refer to unlisted companies that have been in business for a short period of time (less than ten years) and have a valuation of more than $10 billion.
The valuation of super unicorn companies usually exceeds tens of billions of US dollars.
Therefore, Chris's public appearance and high-profile trip this time attracted considerable attention, especially when he claimed that he would invest in building two large European data centers for "SBL" in Norway and France, which attracted the attention of many people, including senior government officials of the two countries.
Justin's mission is to ensure that all members of the "Shangri-La" delegation to Europe still appear to be in Europe when the "flash" that shocks the world appears on a small island in the Caribbean.
This was also the plan Brian made after he found Jack and pondered over it all night in the small building at the base.
Long before, when he and Frank broke into Langley and experienced the seemingly plausible plot of the first part of "Red Fire Battlefield", Jack had been thinking about how to deal with the plot of the second part.
Because Frank's "R.E.D." gang is not like the "Taken" series with Brian as the protagonist. As long as some key factors are changed, such as the protagonist's life trajectory, the subsequent plot will not happen.
There is no strong connection between the plots of the two parts of "Red", which also means that no matter what Jack does, he may not be able to prevent the explosion of the nuclear bomb.
Of course, whether the nuclear bomb explodes or not actually has nothing to do with Jack. The explosion location in the original drama is high in the sky off the sea not far from London. Even if there is radioactive dust, it should not have much impact after drifting across the Atlantic Ocean.
Besides, strictly speaking, what Jack needs to worry about is not that the nuclear bomb will explode, but that the nuclear bomb will not explode.
It is easy to imagine how much trouble a nuclear bomb that can be carried around at any time, can be detonated by dropping it anywhere, and can avoid radiation detection will cause to the world. In the past, someone could still say that if the sky fell, there would be tall people to hold it up, but now...
All one can say is that the makeshift team of the world's largest country is as weak as that of someone in his previous life, forcing him, a small FBI agent, to start worrying about world peace.
In short, this nuclear bomb must be exploded, and it must attract the attention of the world. It would be best if it were exploded to the point where no one cares about where the nuclear bomb came from, and instead focuses on other aspects.
For example, why are there so many wealthy and famous people gathered on the island that was bombed into the sky, and what are they doing there?
Behind Reese, docked at the dock, is a 44-meter-long, extremely eye-catching ultra-luxury yacht.
Although the British Empire's navy has declined to a dismal state today, the number of yachts owned by the British old money is still respectable.
Chris just wrote a check and easily rented such an almost new luxury super yacht from the local yacht club.
Since the Royal Navy held its last naval review in 1977 on the 25th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne, the last symbol of the "sun never sets" has been swept into the dust of history.
In 2005, the United Kingdom held an international naval review to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, but because the royal ship "Britannia" had been retired before that, Her Majesty the Queen had to use an Antarctic research ship as her own ship.
The Battle of Trafalgar was the battle in which the legendary British naval commander Nelson was killed. On October 1805, 10, the French and French fleets were defeated off the coast of Cape Trafalgar, Spain.
On that day, Britain lost their maritime legend, and Napoleon lost hope of attacking the British mainland.
Ironically, at the international naval review held 200 years later to commemorate the battle, the British Royal Navy's fleet was not even as powerful as the visiting French Navy.
Later, as the two aircraft carriers "Invincible" and "Ark Royal" were retired and auctioned, by 2012, the UK could only hold a so-called water memorial event on the Thames.
Jack still remembers a certain ironic photograph of the Queen's cruise ship accompanied by thousands of dinghies and small boats. It was an unbearable sight, a twilight of empire.
"Chris is really generous." Jack couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the large ship with smooth lines and blue and white stripes on the hull. After all, he was a man who had been on a destroyer and a nuclear submarine, but the three-deck luxury yacht in front of him still shocked him.
A 44-meter yacht is actually quite large. Even though a lot of space is wasted on entertainment facilities such as swimming pools, bars, and sunbathing decks, there are still as many as seven or eight cabins that can accommodate people, not counting the crew's rest rooms.
Jack didn't quite understand how some "professional" photographers in his previous life could photograph an aircraft carrier as a fishing boat and a 10,000-ton destroyer as a small dinghy.
Anyway, just taking the luxury yacht built by the Italian company Azimut-Benetti that he was on at the moment, the energy consumed by running up and down it was equivalent to the amount of exercise some failed authors do in a whole day.
As one of the few countries in Europe that has retained a certain level of industrial strength, Italy is indeed good at building yachts. It has three layers of infinity decks, with lines that gradually converge from bottom to top, extending from the stern to the front of the bow, creating an extremely spacious space on board.
"It's a pity that we can't enjoy more than one day on the boat." Marvin, wearing a white captain's uniform, held a cocktail in his hand with a look of regret on his face.
Now they are crew members of a yacht called "Princess Anne". Marvin insists on being the captain, so Frank can only be the first mate.
Jack, Reese and Anna are crew members and also waiters. Their mission at the moment is to depart from here and go to Saint-Malo, France to pick up a group of "rich people" from the United States on board, then sail along the coast of France and Spain, cross the Strait of Gibraltar and go to the Mediterranean for a tour.
Old lady Victoria returned to her home in the suburbs of London, waiting for MI6 agents to come.
Things have come to this point, and the issue MI6 needs to consider is no longer how to silence the witnesses, but how to recover the briefcase-type nuclear bomb that disappeared right under their noses as soon as possible.
In fact, MI6 at this time was in far more chaos than Jack had imagined, because Mr. Greer, the boss of "Decima" who was shot to death by him, also came from MI6.
The current situation is that Dr. Edward Bailey, a former MI6 agent, "fooled" everyone and used several "R.E.D."s to bring back the "red mercury" nuclear bomb hidden under the Kremlin from Moscow. He was going to trade it in London to Mr. Greer, who was also a former MI6 agent, founded "Decima Technologies" and was responsible for doing dirty work for the US government.
The CIA was also going crazy. They were also not free from responsibility in this matter, because the person who killed the two old guys and finally stole the nuclear bomb was Han, the top killer they hired for 2 million.
Now "Han" is missing with the nuclear bomb and no one knows what he wants to do. While MI6 is looking for him, it is also trying hard to throw dirty water on the CIA.
"You're playing with fire." Harry, who had rushed from Normandy in a small sampan overnight, complained as soon as he saw Jack.
Jack still had a smiling face and served a plate of fragrant fried cod. "Apart from the blacksmith, the person who is best at playing with fire is probably the chef. Try this."
While enjoying the delicious food, you can admire the sunrise over the distant sea. Although the English Channel breeze is biting in winter, it is extremely comfortable to be in the glass house on the top deck.
Harry's anger was soon dissipated by the combination of delicious food and beautiful scenery. After all, Jack did not play the game of acting first and reporting later. He even did not hide from him where he planned to detonate the nuclear bomb.
"Edward Bailey's body was shot according to your request. The British didn't find any flaws. I also saw the body of Mr. Greer. I never thought that he was once an MI6 agent."
Harry, with his hard-lined face, was worried, which was rare. "What exactly does this 'Decima' organization want to do?"
"Who knows? Maybe they want to rule the world? Haven't you always been responsible for secretly investigating them?" Jack sat down next to him, took out a box of cigars and put it next to him, indicating that he could do whatever he wanted.
Apart from some impressions gained from watching the plot explanations of the fourth and fifth seasons of "Person of Interest" in his previous life, all the information Jack had about the "Decima" organization came from Harry's investigation during this period.
The impression is that the "Decima" organization is mysterious and powerful. It not only secretly manipulates members of Congress, but also infiltrates the CIA and the military, and eventually gains control of a considerable level of military network authority.
Harry's investigation, including the information obtained from interrogating the blond man with a shaved head, further confirmed his impression that the "Decima" organization had big ambitions.
Being able to kill Mr. Greer this time was a pleasant surprise. Even Jack did not expect that this man would be lured out by a nuclear bomb and get his lunch box smoothly.
It is foreseeable that the plot of "Person of Interest" will be a mess. After all, such an underground organization is unlikely to collapse due to the death of a leader, but the style of behavior after the change of people is obviously unlikely to remain consistent with the previous one.
Now Jack doesn't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, but even if he is given a chance to do it again, he will still choose to empty the magazine at the old guy, because by doing so, perhaps some good people will not have to die.
After enjoying a delicious breakfast and a Cuban cigar on the boat, Harry got back on the dinghy and left. As the boss of the "Omega" department, he had to pretend to assist the CIA in finding the whereabouts of the nuclear bomb.
The luxury yacht arrived in Saint-Malo at noon and set sail again after picking up a group of Shangri-La Group executives and "family members".
It was just nightfall when the "Princess Anne" sailed westward and approached Ashen Island. Under the cover of darkness, several small speedboats slowly approached the "Princess Anne" yacht.
Ten hours later, a Gulfstream jet with an altered aircraft registration landed at Cuba's Varadero International Airport.
An old Victorian lady dressed in tropical tourist clothes leaned against a 1954 Buick Skylark convertible, with Ivan next to her in a floral shirt and shorts.
"Welcome to 'Green Crocodile of the Caribbean'." Seeing Jack and others getting off the plane, the old Russian, holding a large cigar in his mouth, opened his arms to welcome everyone like a host.
