Chapter 425 Things Are Getting Bigger
There were three dead bodies lying in the corridor, falling into dead silence. ? Hunting ????? ???????
It was Bi Ji who recognized Zhou Qingfeng, she recognized him the moment she saw Zhou Qingfeng's eyes, and reminded Erwin in a low voice. But Erwin pushed her towards Zhou Qingfeng to create obstacles, and killed her in the ensuing chaos of firefights.
Erwin was shot twice in the body, the .45 rounds ripping through his ribcage and killing him within half a minute. And it was the stunned waiter who died in the end, Zhou Qingfeng had no choice but to kill him to silence him.
After doing all this, Zhou Qingfeng could only sigh at Bi Ji's body, and said 'sorry' helplessly. He searched Erwin's body and confirmed the room the other party used to direct the operation.
There were four or five of Erwin's assistants in the room. These people had no resistance to Zhou Qingfeng's sudden intrusion, and they were all killed almost in a face-to-face. And what made Zhou Qingfeng dumbfounded was that the oil painting he had managed to obtain and sell appeared in front of him intact.
"This is really a big joke." What Zhou Qingfeng has to do now is how to deal with the current situation, but it's not easy to cover it up. According to some seized documents, there is still a cash banknote weighing two tons waiting for him to deal with on board, which should be the property he wants to defend.
"Hell, how do I transport the two-ton banknotes?" Zhou Qingfeng tried to transport the banknotes to the wasteland, but the banknotes are obviously not low-value items in the real world, and they can't be carried at all.
Zhou Qingfeng also went to the ship's vault, only to find that 200 million U.S. dollars in cash had been shipped out separately as CIA's funds for operations, stored in more than a dozen large safes, and four special forces members were in charge of guarding them.
The four special forces members were easily killed by Zhou Qingfeng. So far, except for Xu Yun and Feng Wan, everyone on the cruise ship who knew about his connection with the oil painting auction was killed by him, but he just couldn't transport the money. If the money cannot be transported, the task assigned by the ‘god’ will not be considered completed.
As time passed, another trouble came again-the destroyer USS Larsen of the US Seventh Fleet appeared near the Ocean Princess and asked the cruise ship to stop for inspection. This warship was originally going to support Erwin, but now the people it was going to support have been wiped out.
This "Arleigh Burke" class Aegis destroyer was originally under maintenance at Changi Naval Port in Singapore, and rushed to help Irwin's operation after receiving the order. It brought a whole company of the Navy's 6th team, which was specially used to stabilize the situation on the cruise ship.
When more than a hundred people from this company boarded the cruise ship, Zhou Qingfeng realized that he really underestimated Lao Mei's ability to act. He hurried into the monitoring room on the cruise ship, destroyed all the monitoring video and personnel, and then took off his combat uniform and threw it into the sea in a panic.
Erase all traceable traces along the way, and retreat to the cabin to play the role of your own tourist.
From cIa's point of view, with the help of a company's 6th navy team, the situation on the cruise ship is absolutely fine. And when more than a hundred American soldiers armed to the teeth really boarded the boat, what they saw was a slaughterhouse of flesh and blood. All the soldiers thought they were just here to perform an ordinary assistance mission, and now the people who needed their assistance were dead.
"My God!" The leading officer was stunned by the corpses scattered all over the ship, especially the dozens of corpses on the auction site, each dead worse than the last. "Report to the chief, we are in trouble!"
The news was transmitted quickly on the radio waves, and the first to learn about it was the Seventh Fleet Command in Yokosuka, Japan. The current Commander Thomas had just fallen asleep, and when he heard the news, he thought the adjutant was joking to himself, "What are you talking about..., all the cIa personnel in charge of the operation are dead?"
how can that be? !
The second person who knew about this was Secretary Carter of the U.S. Department of Defense. His Excellency, who is busy with everything, just finished a reception. After hearing the news, he repeatedly confirmed it four or five times before rushing to report to His Excellency the President—— We in America have suffered a major setback.
Yes, this setback is really big enough! Not to mention the failure of the operation, even the operatives were all lost, and none were left behind.
In the end, cIa himself was the one who found out about this, and they, who were always well-informed, were astonished. Because the people who should have sent them the news at the first time were all dead.
The director of the CIA, Brennan, was furious on the spot and ordered that the matter should be thoroughly investigated immediately. This is a matter of the dignity of the United States, and the murderer who dared to confront the CIA must be found.
As for this matter, the media with a keen sense of smell also got news from the tourists and staff of the cruise ship in the first place. When the Ocean Princess stopped off the coast of Singapore in the middle of the night, it happened to be noon in broad daylight in the United States, and the Americans who were about to rest and eat were caught in a wave of news.
"Terrorist attack on US cruise ship, hundreds of people are expected to die."
"The Ocean Princess was hijacked by pirates, and the gangsters demanded a sky-high ransom."
"The rescue operation may have failed, and it is believed that a large number of Korean tourists were beheaded by bandits."
Shock, disaster, we are all Americans... Waves of news on the Internet make it hard to tell whether it is true or not. Most of the people who spread the news were non-professionals on the ship, and all kinds of gossip were flying all over the sky. Thousands of people on the cruise ship were all panicked, and there were people who said anything.
The Americans who saw the news were immediately dumbfounded. Some people exclaimed that this was the second '911' terrorist attack. But after getting the list of tourists on board, I found that there are mostly Asian tourists on the cruise ship, and Americans are in the minority.
Even the Chinese government has paid special attention to this matter, expressing that it will take necessary measures against this terrorist attack. Because there are a large number of Chinese tourists on the cruise ship, the government waved a big hand, and the coast guard ship, let's attack!
There is nothing else in China these days, the coast guard ships are in charge, and more than a dozen coast guard ships rushed over overnight. This is the same as the Malaysia Airlines disaster. A large number of Chinese coast guard ships finally had the opportunity to go to other countries' waters for a while. Basically, after one wave, there will be a second wave, and many things will be done by the waves.
And under such circumstances, a large number of US troops stationed at Changi Base in Singapore began to rush over by helicopter. They brought in a large number of so-called rescuers, but first began to investigate the tragedy that happened on the cruise ship.
And this kind of determination to investigate to the end is extremely detrimental to Zhou Qingfeng, he is now trapped on the boat and can't go anywhere. If a clue was left because of some oversight on his part, the fun would be great.
Chaos requires even greater chaos. The 6,000 or 7,000 people on board cannot be investigated by the Americans step by step in such a calm manner. Standing on the balcony of his own suite, Zhou Qingfeng stared at the destroyer 'Larsen' looming in the night, and a vicious thought came to his mind. (To be continued.)
