A Mercenary’s War

Chapter 707 Clues

Gao Yang was excited for a reason, because he saw a gun in the photo.

Among the antique shotguns Gao Yang gave to Morgan, the most precious one was a double-barreled shotgun made by Clemens and once used by Emperor Franz Joseph I of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Whether in a cultural sense or in terms of the shotgun itself, what Gao Yang gave to Morgan was an incredible antique shotgun, but for Morgan, the most important gun was Emperor Franz Joseph I. The one given to his queen.

It was a gun that Morgan's mother had used, and that Morgan's father and Morgan himself had spent their whole lives searching for but couldn't get.

In Europe, everyone knows Princess Sissi's reputation. Outside Europe, because of a classic movie, Princess Sissi seems to be more famous than her husband. At least Gao Yang knows about Princess Sissi from the movie. , and before he got the shotgun used by Franz Joseph I, he didn't even know that it was this man who dragged Austria and Germany into World War I.

The shotgun that Princess Sissi once used and repeatedly expressed how much she loved it in a letter must be considered a treasure, right? It witnessed the love between Franz Joseph I and Princess Sissi, and was given as a wedding gift to Princess Sissi, who loved sports and hunting. In terms of cultural relics, it also has the wealth value of this shotgun. Say, it counts as a treasure, right?

Especially for Morgan, his father spent his whole life searching for a shotgun that he couldn't find, and he himself spent half his life looking for a shotgun from Shadow that he couldn't find. That is definitely a treasure.

Therefore, if it can be regarded as a treasure from all angles, then Gao Yang has discovered the key to unlocking the treasure. It's not the password to open that safe, it's the key to finding Princess Sissi's shotgun.

There are many photos hanging on the wall, some large and some small. The people in the photos include Dusselev's personal photos and some photos with others. Gao Yang didn't look at those photos particularly carefully at first, but he took them His eyes fell on a pair that was one meter long. When taking a large photo with a width of 60 centimeters, it was out of sensitivity to guns. He discovered the problem.

The group photo Gao Yang looked at was a group photo of Dusselev and another person. Dusselev looked very young in the photo. He and the other person were both standing and taking a photo with a shot moose in front of them. The moose The body is very large. In the photo, Dussel placed an upright double-barreled shotgun on the moose's neck, while another man placed a flat-mounted double-barreled shotgun on the moose's belly.

Dusselev's gun didn't deserve attention. What excited Gao Yang was the gun held by another person.

The gun body faces the outside from the left side, and Gao Yang can see the carvings on the gun body.

The photo is a long time old,

Judging from the age of Dusselev in the photo, it should have been taken in the 1980s. Although the photo has been rephotographed, it is still a bit blurry. The pattern on the gun body could not be clearly seen. Gao Yang could only vaguely see that there should be a line of inscriptions engraved on the metal plate on the left side of the gun body.

Although he could not clearly see the content of the inscription, the look of that gun looked very familiar to Gao Yang. The shape of the gun butt was exactly the same as the one he had given to Morgan. It was just that the length of the gun barrel was slightly shorter and the gun stock seemed slightly narrower. But the more this happened, the more Gao Yang was sure that the gun in the photo was the same. The shotgun was definitely the same as the one he got.

If the inscription on the gun can be clearly seen, everything will be certain.

Gao Yang carefully looked at the person holding Princess Sissi's shotgun. From the photo, it seems that the man hunting with Dusselev is much older than Dusselev. He should be in his late 40s or early 50s, and he looks nothing like Dusselev. Dusselev is of Caucasian ethnicity, and the other person in the photo is of Europa ethnicity. Just this alone can make him Gao Yang ruled out the possibility that they were father and son.

It is gratifying to find clues, but at least thirty years have passed since the age of this photo. The person who took the photo with Dusselev may have died of old age, and the shotgun may have been lost to the world again, but no matter what, it can be found A clue, at least for Morgan, would be great news.

Seeing Gao Yang's excitement, Grolev asked curiously: "What's wrong? What did you find?"

Ke Sen also shrugged and said: "Did you find a password that can be determined? Or did you find some treasure in the photo."

Gao Yang calmed down and said, "It's nothing. Well, it's nothing. These are some of my things, not some treasure."

In front of Ke Sen, Gao Yang definitely couldn't tell the truth. After resisting the urge to call Morgan immediately, Gao Yang pointed to the photo and said to Ke Sen: "Can I take this photo away? ?This is very important to me, and I want to take it away if it won't affect your cleaning work too much."

Ke Sen shrugged and said, "No problem, we are going to tear this house apart, so taking away a photo won't be a big problem."

Gao Yang carefully took down the photo, and then his interest in guarding and opening the safe weakened a lot. He began to focus on pondering the information provided in the photo.

Generally speaking, experts who are good at tracking small traces are careful and very observant people. Gao Yang can also be counted in this category, but after looking at it for a long time, he could not analyze anything particularly useful. Come.

Judging from the photo, Dusselev and the others were hunting in autumn. The background far behind them should be broad-leaved forests, and the hunting should be in swamp-like terrain. The Soviet Union had not yet disintegrated when they were hunting. , there are too many places in the entire Soviet Union that fit this characteristic, and moose are also widely distributed in the Soviet Union. Gao Yang can't tell where he is hunting at all.

Gao Yang lacked knowledge about the Soviet era, lacked understanding of the Soviet Union's vast territory and terrain, and had no understanding of the Soviet Union's flora and fauna. After looking at it for a while, he gave up on getting more information from the photos.

Although he gave up analyzing any valuable information, and Gao Yang couldn't ask Grolev, a Russian, for the time being, Gao Yang's attention was entirely devoted to the photos, and he didn't know how long it took until he left. Antonio, who was holding the tools, opened the door and went in before interrupting Gao Yang's train of thought.

After carefully placing the photo in the living room, Gao Yang returned to Dusselev's bedroom.

After placing a box on the safe, Antonio rubbed his hands and said to Ke Sen calmly: "Can we start?"

After hesitating for a moment, Ke Sen whispered: "Are you sure?"

"Of course!"

When things came to a close, Ke Sen became cautious. He frowned and said, "This safe belongs to the damn KGB. If there is a bomb in the safe, how powerful do you think it would be? Such a big cabinet. , if there's a big bomb inside that can take off the entire top of a building, I don't want a big explosion in Manhattan."

Antonio shrugged and said: "I don't think a retired KGB has the leisure to plant a big bomb in his own house and sleep on it every day. I think the most he can do is blow up the people in this room, and the most he can do is Now, for the sake of safety, you’d better leave and wait for me downstairs.”

After Ke Sen touched his sparse hair again, he finally said: "Okay, open the safe."

After finishing speaking, Ke Sen looked at Gao Yang and said, "I'm leaving here and waiting below. If you are worried and willing to stay here and watch, just watch him work and don't disturb him."

What a joke, Gao Yang wouldn't stay in a house that might explode. He couldn't wait to leave the apartment, and he wanted Yelena and the others to leave too.

Gao Yang and the others also went downstairs with Ke Sen and returned to Grolev's house. However, as soon as they entered the house, Gao Yang was about to ask Fry to inform Yelena and all of them to evacuate out of the apartment, but he saw that Ke Sen, who was walking towards the sofa, had not yet He sat down, tapped his ear, and said in surprise: "What did you say? It's been opened? The bomb has been taken out too?"

After waiting for a while, Ke Sen stopped sitting and turned directly to Gao Yang and said: "Go up, the safe has been opened."

Gao Yang said in shock: "So fast?"

Ke Sen just shrugged and said, "It's just that fast."

Gao Yang immediately gave the photo he took down to Tommy and said, "Take good care of it for me. Don't damage it or get it dirty."

Gao Yang and the others had to go back right after they went downstairs, but this kind of torment made them feel happy.

When they arrived at Dusselev's bedroom, they saw Antonio playing with a square box. After seeing Corson, he raised the square box and said with a smile: "Boss, you are indeed right. A bomb is enough to blow this house to pieces."

Gao Yang looked into the open safe and felt better when he saw the neatly stacked green banknotes inside.

"How did you do it? Why so fast?"

After hearing Gao Yang's question, Antonio said disdainfully: "Drill a hole, connect the wire to the microchip, and then start decoding. There are eight passwords. It took less than a minute to unlock the password." Wow, this Russian guy’s password setting is really simple.”

Gao Yang clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, let's count the money quickly. It seems like a lot of money. I think it can at least pay your commission."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yang saw a strange look on Grolev's face next to him, and then muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "Why did he also use eight ones as a password? It seems that the password of eight ones is really too big." It’s easy, well, I have to change my bank password quickly.” (To be continued)
