Living in North America, working from 9 to 5

Chapter 220: Change of plan! Roy was shot in the head!

Seeing the Russian soldier raise his hand to signal to stop, Roy slowed down the car and Anna, who was sitting in the back seat, clenched her pistol.

Novikov picked up the intercom:
"Ahead, military checkpoint!"

Maggie and Selina in the second car looked at each other, and Selina handed Maggie a pistol.

Reaching out to take it, shifting it to her right hand, Maggie gently placed the pistol in the storage compartment under the driver's door.

Selina tucked the pistol under her thigh.

The bald 47 at the back pulled the slide of his pistol and observed the situation ahead.

R-Hound lifted his shirt, revealing a revolver.

Roy slowly slowed down and began to count the number of Russian soldiers in his mind. There were 8 fully armed soldiers near the interception card.

Five military jeeps and two troop transport trucks were parked on the road behind the interception checkpoint. At least 40 fully armed soldiers were smoking, chatting and discussing what had happened tonight in the snow.

An armed helicopter roared past in the sky.

There were more than ten civilian vehicles lined up preparing to leave Moscow. The soldiers came forward and asked the drivers to lower the windows. They used flashlights to illuminate the faces of everyone in the car, including the drivers, and compared them with the photos in their hands.

The military's inspections are much stricter than those of the city's police. All four doors of every vehicle must be opened, and the trunk must also be inspected. Only if no problems are found will they be allowed to leave. However, before leaving, documents must be registered.

Roy and Novikov saw what was happening ahead.

Both of them frowned slightly at the same time.

Novikov turned around and looked at Anna. "They might open the car door to check. Go to the trunk and disguise yourself. I'll see if I can handle it. If not, I'll have to force my way through."

Anna nodded slightly, climbed from the back seat to the trunk, lay down next to Isabella, and covered them both with the tarpaulin.

Isabella asked softly, "What happened?"

Anna made a hushing gesture: "This is the last checkpoint. It's the military."

As she spoke, Anna clenched the pistol.

Isabella took a deep breath and said nothing more.

The soldier saw that the three oncoming cars were all black and of the same model, and immediately became alert.

A soldier waved a high-intensity flashlight in his hand and gestured for three vehicles to drive in his direction.

As the SUV got closer, the soldier could see the license plate number clearly.

It's a military brand...

At the same time, the soldier used the intercom to report to his superiors: "Captain, three black Audi SUVs with military license plates!"

"wait for me!"

"Yes!"

The on-site commander trotted over with five men.

Roy also stopped the car at this time.

It was a local vehicle with a military license plate. As the commander walked towards this side, he used the walkie-talkie to report to his superiors and stated the license plate number of the first vehicle in detail.

The soldier walked to the driver's seat, stopped, and saluted the jeep.

Roy rolled down the window.

The soldier looked at Roy and Novikov, who was in the passenger seat.

Both men were wearing suits, not military uniforms. The soldier asked, "Please show us your ID."

Novikov pulled out his ID and handed it to Roy, who took it and handed it to the soldier standing outside.

At the same time, the on-site commander came over with five soldiers.

Seeing the officer coming, the soldier handed his ID to the commander. Through the lowered window of the driver's seat, the captain saw two people sitting in the front and rear seats. He did not speak, but opened the ID to check: "Yuri Novikov, KGB, Operations Department..."

After comparing the photo on the ID with Novikov's, the captain was about to press the intercom button to report the ID information to his superiors when he heard the intercom ring: "License plate verification, it's a KGB car."

"Got it! Please check for me, KGB Operations Department, Yuri Novikov, he is leaving the city." The captain carefully reported the situation on the scene to his superiors.

Releasing the intercom button, the captain looked at Roy. He took out the photo for comparison, but couldn't see anything. Then he asked, "Your ID."

Novikov immediately said in Russian: "He is my driver, Captain, I think you should return my documents to me."

After being interrupted by Novikov, the captain turned his attention to Novikov and said with a smile: "What happened tonight? Why is there a sudden curfew?"

As he spoke, the captain patted the back of his subordinate, meaning that you should check other vehicles first.

The four soldiers understood what was meant and walked towards the second and third cars.

"An international terrorist has escaped and he is very dangerous," Novikov said.

"So that's how it is. Are you going to leave Moscow?"

"Yes, we are going to Kursk."

The captain nodded and did not ask any more questions. There were some questions that the KGB would not tell him even if he asked them, and they could just make up an excuse to evade them.

As they were talking, two of the soldiers came to the second car and shone a strong flashlight into the interior of the car.

Maggie rolled down the window.

The trooper saw two women sitting in the car.

Maggie took out her ID: "Do you need to see it?"

The soldier took the certificate, opened it and began to check it.

The same thing happened in the third car, and Revolver R also handed the forged document to the soldier.

Serena pressed her hands under her thighs and tightened her grip on the pistol.

Within a minute after the captain reported to his superiors that Novikov was leaving Moscow, Novikov's cell phone rang.

Taking out his cell phone and looking at it, Novikov frowned slightly.

He pressed the answer button and put the phone to his ear: "Director, this is Novikov."

Alisa's voice came from the receiver: "The checkpoint reported that you are leaving Moscow. Where are you going?"

"I suspect they have left Moscow now. I'm going to look for them on the outskirts. The nearest border is Ukraine. If they left Moscow, they should go straight to the Ukrainian border," Novikov explained.

"Now, come back to headquarters immediately. Your mission is not to search!" Alisa gave the order over the phone.

Hearing this, Novikov frowned even deeper...

"Yes, I'll go back now..."

Alisa hung up the phone.

Novikov turned his head and looked at Roy. He couldn't speak English in front of the soldiers outside, as this would arouse suspicion.

He observed the situation ahead from the corner of his eye. There were too many soldiers on the scene. None of the three vehicles were bulletproof. After a little hesitation, Novikov said to the captain, "There are latest instructions from above. I have to go back to the Kremlin now."

After a brief thought, the captain smiled, handed the certificate back to Roy, and said to Novikov with a smile: "Okay!"

After taking a few steps back, the captain called back the soldiers who were checking behind and made room for them to turn around.

Roy raised the car window and turned to look at Novikov.

Novikov whispered in English: "Turn around, let's go back first!"

After he finished speaking, he used the intercom to notify the car behind him.

Roy started the car and turned around on the spot.

The two off-road vehicles behind quickly followed.

On the way back, Roy asked:
"What happened?"

Roy's perception was still very sharp. Although he didn't know what the person on the other end of the phone said to Novikov, judging from his expression, something must have gone wrong.

Novikov frowned slightly and said, "Alissa may have doubted me. It is almost impossible for us to rush over in that situation. Even if we did, we would not be able to escape the pursuit of the military. After all, Moscow is still hundreds of kilometers away from the border."

Roy nodded to show his understanding and asked, "So what are your plans?"

Novikov fell silent.

Roy also slowed down and saw a dark alley on the side of the road. He steered and turned into it.

The other two cars also followed Roy into the alley.

Stop the car and everyone gets out together.

Coming between the first and second cars, Novikov opened the trunk lid and Anna jumped out.

"What happened?" Maggie asked.

"There were too many soldiers at the checkpoint just now, and we had no way of getting out safely. Alisa already knew that I was leaving Moscow. I think she has begun to suspect me. She just asked me to rush back to the bureau immediately." Novikov said.

Guys, look at me and I'll look at you.

Maggie said, "If Alisa already suspects you, then you can't go back."

Novikov did not express his opinion, but was frantically thinking of countermeasures in his head.

Anna said, "Now, the whole city of Moscow is under martial law. It seems that it will be difficult to leave safely tonight or in the near future. I think the martial law will not last long. In an hour, the whole world will know about it. At the latest, it will be tonight, so I suggest hiding for a while."

What Anna said makes sense. After all, this is the capital. How can martial law be kept for a long time? That would cause a series of troubles.

According to her estimation, the martial law will be lifted at daybreak, and at most temporary checkpoints will be added on the roads out of the city.

But even so, they couldn't easily leave safely.

We were just stopped at the checkpoint.

Roy said: "The longer we delay, the more things will change. As long as the checkpoint is still there, it will be difficult for us to leave Moscow..."

At this point, Roy paused.

Everyone turned their eyes to Roy.

Maggie asked, "So what are your plans?"

Taking a deep breath, Roy said, "Kidnap a heavyweight and ask for a plane to take us away!"

"Kidnapping?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Roy nodded slightly: "Yes, if Novikov is suspected, this is the only way for us to leave here safely under the current circumstances."

"Kidnap who?" R-Hound raised his eyebrows.

Roy turned his gaze to Novikov.

"President?" Novikov frowned.

Roy shook his head: "No, this might lead to a war."

Maggie and R-Hound looked at each other, and the two communicated with their eyes. Then R-Hound said, "I think kidnapping the president is feasible!"

Roy, Selina, and Bald 47 turned their heads at the same time and looked at the two with surprise.

Okay……

You, New Hope, wanted to start an all-out war.

"Kidnapping the president requires careful planning and deployment. Now time is running out and the whole city is under martial law. Not only do we have no time to plan, we also don't have enough time to prepare. It's too risky." Roy said.

Roy's current physical strength is a far cry from what it was before the mission. If he were to break into the palace alone, it would not be impossible.

But he has to consider the entire team.

After all, there is Isabella who is seriously injured and has difficulty moving.

"What is Alisa's position in your government?" Roy asked.

"Very high!" Novikov replied.

Maggie looked at Roy: "You mean, kidnap Alisa?" Roy nodded...

After a brief thought, Maggie said, "Okay, what are you going to do?"

Glancing at everyone, Roy said, "Since Alisa asked Novikov to return to the KGB headquarters, I will go in with him."

Hearing Roy's words, everyone on the scene looked surprised at the same time. Anna immediately said, "We just rescued you from the KGB, and you want to fall into their trap again? No, no!"

"Do you think anyone can stop me?"

Anna: "..."

Roy continued, "The solution is simple and clear. We don't have time. Isabella needs systematic treatment and can't delay. Novikov, just let me see Alisa in person. Trust me."

Roy's strength is obvious to everyone. No one doubts his ability. Everyone just thinks that doing so is a bit risky.

Roy glanced at Serena, then at Maggie.

Although Roy didn't say anything, the two girls understood what he meant. In the current situation, only cooperation between the organization and New Hope can ensure safety.

Seeing that no one said anything, Roy began to deploy...

After some simple deployment, Roy, Novikov and Maggie changed vehicles and drove straight to the KGB headquarters under Novikov's guidance.

About forty-five minutes later, the convoy could already see the KGB headquarters building. Maggie and R-Hound drove away from the convoy, leaving Roy alone in his car to go to the KGB headquarters.

At the gate, Roy parked the car.

Novikov handed over his ID.

After scanning the ID, the guard handed it back and let the vehicle pass. After the SUV entered the yard, the guard reported to his superiors.

Roy parked the car in the parking space. He vaguely felt that countless pairs of eyes were staring at him and Novikov.

Roy's perception is very sharp.

Novikov was right, Alisa should have suspected him.

Pushing the door and getting out of the car, Roy followed Novikov into the headquarters building.

Enter the lobby and go through security check.

"Who is he?" asked the security officer in charge of security check.

"He's my undercover field agent, and his credentials are in the safe in my office!" Novikov said expressionlessly.

Not all KGB agents have been to the headquarters, so it is normal for the security guards to look unfamiliar. The KGB has a lot of undercover agents, and with Novikov's level as commander of the Operations Department, he has the authority to bring anyone into the headquarters.

"The system shows that your gun authorization has expired and you need to hand over your gun!" said the security guard.

Without any hesitation, Novikov handed over his gun.

At this point, Novikov was completely certain that Alisa had begun to suspect him, otherwise, the authorization to enter the building with a gun would not have expired.

Roy did not carry any weapons and passed the security check easily, while Novikov's gun was left with the security guard.

According to regulations, no one is allowed to bring a gun into the headquarters unless authorized.

In this way, Novikov took Roy, whose appearance had changed, into the interior and went up the stairs to the third floor. Novikov pulled over a staff member and asked, "Is Director Alisa here?"

"Yes, she just came back from the Kremlin and is currently in the office."

Patting the man on the shoulder, Novikov exchanged glances with Roy and went straight to Alisa's office.

Before they had walked ten meters, more than a dozen agents in suits suddenly came out from the offices on both sides of the corridor and surrounded Novikov and Roy.

Novikov stopped, looked at one of them, and said, "Alexei, what do you mean?"

"Novikov, you need to be interrogated!" said Alexei, the leading agent.

With his eyes narrowed slightly, Novikov said with a gloomy face, "I want to see Director Alisa!"

Since the agents had been unarmed upon entering the building, they did not take any radical actions. Alexei turned his gaze to Roy and asked, "Who is he?"

"My undercover field agent!"

"Then let's take them together for investigation!"

"I said, I want to see Chief Alisa!"

At this moment, Alisa walked out of the office, followed by four agents in suits.

Seeing Alisa, Roy's eyes narrowed slightly.

Alisa stopped three meters away and looked at Novikov with a cold gaze: "Anna is a traitor, Yuri, I really don't want you to be one too."

"Director!"

Novikov took a step forward.

The two agents immediately stepped forward and stretched out their left and right hands to stop him.

Novikov stopped and said, "Director, you know, I have always been your man. How could I be a traitor?"

"Whether you are a traitor or not, we will know after checking you. You have been loyal to me for so many years, I certainly don't want you to be a traitor. Tell me, why did you leave Moscow without permission? Who were in the three cars?"

Director Alisa looked at Novikov with cold eyes.

"I'm here!"

As he spoke, Roy rushed forward suddenly. His instantaneous burst of energy was so fast that the two agents blocking Novikov didn't react at all.

Roy's body rushed straight through the two men's arms that were blocking him.

The huge impact force directly broke the arms of the two men.

Alisa: “!!!”

Just as she was about to step back, she realized that the man was very close.

bang bang-

Two punches were thrown at lightning speed, and the two agents guarding in front of Alisa were killed by one punch.

He grabbed Alisa's throat with one hand, pressed down Alisa's body, flew over and kicked the two agents behind Alisa to the ground. Roy instantly flashed behind Alisa and grabbed Alisa's throat with his right hand.

At the same time, Novikov took the opportunity to rush over, quickly pulled out the pistol from the armpit of the fallen dead agent, and handed it to Roy.

Alisa's agents drew their pistols and collectively aimed at Novikov and Roy.

"Don't be nervous, relax, or I will kill her!" Roy said coldly.

This voice sounds familiar...

Alisa's eyes widened, her face full of shock, and she murmured, "It's you, Roy..."

Alisa recognized Roy's voice.

She couldn't believe that this boy dared to come to the KGB headquarters.

In front of the agent with the gun, Novikov squatted down, pulled out the pistol of another dead agent who had fallen to the ground, and aimed his gun at them.

Taking a deep breath, Alisa's face was as gloomy as water, and her expression was extremely gloomy. She said coldly: "Yuri Novikov, you are indeed a traitor. You disappoint me so much."

"Haha!" Novikov sneered.

"You are from the North American organization..."

"No!" Novikov denied it directly, then said with a smile, "Holy light washes away sins, and souls will eventually be free. Evil cannot make the apostles surrender. The holy messengers will eventually bring light and freedom to mankind, and the iron will will become a new hope..."

"The Guardian Organization..." Alisa was so angry that her whole body began to tremble slightly, and her voice was extremely low, "Anna..."

"So is she."

hiss--

Angry Alisa took a deep breath and said, "Who gave you the courage to stop the headquarters?"

Roy said coldly: "Tell your people to lay down their weapons!"

After he finished speaking, Roy grabbed Alisa's neck and slowly retreated to the end of the corridor to ensure that there would be no enemies behind him.

Roy took a step back, and the agent with his gun raised took a step forward.

After a while, a large number of fully armed security personnel arrived.

"Roy, what do you want?" Alisa asked.

"I don't want anything to happen. I just want to take my people and leave safely."

Alisa narrowed her eyes slightly: "You want to take me away with you, Roy, do you think it's possible?"

"If you think it's impossible, then I will kill you first, and then kill everyone in this building. You should believe that I have the ability to do this, right?" Roy whispered in Alisa's ear.

hiss--

Alisa gasped.

She had witnessed Roy's ability with her own eyes, and the horrific scene that took place in the secret base in the suburbs had only been a few hours. How could she forget it?

"Novikov, get behind me!"

Novikov took a step back and hid behind Roy.

Roy whispered in Alisa's ear: "Give the order to prepare a fully fueled Il-76. As long as you can get us away safely, I will let you go!"

"Haha, even if I agree, the president won't agree!" Alisa sneered, "Your current behavior and previous actions have been identified as terrorist attacks. You should know that Russia never compromises with terrorists. Also, you are an American citizen and a police officer of the New York Police Department. With your identity, you took the Russian senior official hostage. We will identify you as a CIA agent who was ordered to undermine the stability of the country. Aren't you worried that the two countries will go to war because of this?"

"Just you guys? Haha!" Roy laughed.

"why are you laughing?"

"Even if a war breaks out, you will die before it starts!"

"you!"

"I'll count to three. If you don't give the order to prepare the plane, I'll start a massacre here. Maybe I won't leave. Maybe I'll go to the Kremlin. Maybe..."

"you……"

Alisa was so angry that veins popped all over her body.

"three!"

"two!"

boom--

A gunshot was heard!
The bullet cut through the air and flew straight towards Roy's head.

At this moment, the air seemed to freeze.

Alisa's eyes widened.

Roy's pupils suddenly contracted.

Novikov: “!!!”

The bullet hit Roy's left forehead, penetrated the epidermis, and broke apart in an instant the moment it touched the skull.

Bullet fragments flew in all directions at high speed, some of which tore open Alisa's scalp, while other fragments scratched Roy's head skin, hit Novikov's shoulder behind him, and penetrated into the flesh.

Under the huge inertial impact, Roy's head tilted backwards.

The next second, Novikov suddenly covered his shoulder with his hand.

Roy turned his head back, and bright red blood flowed down his cheek.

"Are you okay?" Novikov shouted.

Alisa's eyes were wide open...

All the agents on the scene were horrified: "???"

what's the situation? ? ?
what just happened???
