Chapter 889: Unkind Visitors

Xiao Peng could understand Li Yue and Kasim while they were communicating in Russian, but he had a lisp, so he just listened and didn't speak.

Why did they get along so well? The reason was simple: Li Yue spent her undergraduate years studying abroad at Chechen State University, where she majored in Western art history.

There aren't many Chinese in Chechnya. While Chinese people are ubiquitous across the globe, they understand the importance of seeking good fortune and avoiding danger, seeking profit and avoiding harm. They only go to places they consider good. Furthermore, Chinese people prioritize life and safety, so there aren't many Chinese in places like Chechnya, which have been ravaged by years of war. While Chechnya has long since returned to normalcy, people's inertial thinking persists.

Kasin excitedly said to Xiao Peng, "Boss, Miss Li Yue studied abroad in Chechnya! She even lived there for several years!"

Xiao Peng said, "I understand. If you want to chat about family matters, it's better to wait until you've dealt with things here, okay? We can't stay here forever, right?"

Kasin spread his hands and said, "Boss, there's nothing I can do! Even though this car is old, the high-voltage coil is sealed. If it breaks, we can only replace it with a new one! Now we only have two options: either buy a replacement high-voltage coil, or ship the car away. There's no way to solve this problem here."

"How do we transport it?" Xiao Peng asked, "Li Yue, does this car have any special meaning to you?"

He meant to just throw the bike away if it didn't have any special meaning, but he couldn't say it directly. After all, if a girl rode such an old motorcycle, it was likely to have some special meaning, just like his own Red Flag.

Li Yue shook her head after hearing this and said, "Special meaning? I bought this car from a colleague when I was in Chechnya. I just wanted to get a good deal on it. But it's been with me all this time, so I have some attachment to it!"

"What?" Xiao Peng and Kasin exclaimed in surprise. Riding such a junky thing from Chechnya to Ireland? Li Yue was too reckless! It was a miracle that this bike hadn't turned into a pile of broken metal, right?

Xiao Peng held his chin up and said, "No, we have to find a way to move this car away. It's too valuable for a souvenir!"

Kasim asked, "Boss, you said transport it? How? Our car can't even fit it! Don't even think about putting it on the roof of our car, that's too much! It would be great if the car had a tow bar, but we don't have one, and it's too dangerous to tow a motorcycle on the road with a car."

"What should I do?" Xiao Peng looked at the motorcycle worriedly.

Kasin blinked. "How about, Boss, why don't you carry this motorcycle to the next town? I looked and Meath County isn't far from here, only 17 kilometers away."

Li Yue blinked after hearing this: "Xiao Peng, are you really Kaxin's boss?"

Xiao Peng sighed and said, "No, no, no, I'm not his boss, he's my ancestor! Kasin, quickly figure out a way to take this car away, or I'll make you push it to Meath County!"

After hearing this, Kasin put on a 'mask of pain' on his face. Li Yue said, "If it's too troublesome, we can't just leave the car here. We can just go to the town ahead and buy a high-voltage pack and replace it!"

"But what about this car?" Xiao Peng asked.

Li Yue said, "There's no village or shop here. I've been waiting here for three hours, and you're the first car to pass by..."

Before she could finish her words, the three of them looked into the distance together: they heard the sound of an engine.

"Oh! A car is coming!" Li Yue said excitedly.

A convoy of cars came, including pickup trucks, cars and motorcycles, with flags hanging on the cars. At first glance, I thought I had encountered a group of bikers in Japan!

Li Yue waved her hands to indicate that she needed help, but Kaxin grabbed her and protected her and Xiao Peng behind him: "Boss, this is not good!"

Xiao Peng was stunned: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Kasin said, "Boss, look at the flags on their cars!"

Xiao Peng's face turned grim after taking a look.

The flags hung on those cars are very similar to the Irish flag, also a green, white and orange tricolor. However, the Irish flag has three vertical colors, green, white and orange from left to right, while the flags on their cars have three horizontal stripes, green, white and orange from top to bottom, with an AK-47 pattern on the white part in the middle.

Li Yue was completely confused: "What's going on? Who is coming?"

Cassin gave the answer: "That's the flag of the Irish House Army, or IRA."

Li Yue asked in confusion, "Why are you afraid of military vehicles?"

After hearing this, Xiao Peng and Kaxin looked at Li Yue together. This question was really too invincible.

Kasim said nothing. He opened the car door and took out the box Keane had given them before they left. He took out the two pistols from inside, put one in his waistband, and handed one to Xiao Peng.

Xiao Peng shook his head and didn't take it. Kasim didn't say anything either, but simply put the gun on the other side of his waist in a convenient place.

"Why do you have guns?" Li Yue asked.

But Xiao Peng and Kaxin ignored her and looked at the convoy with serious faces, which was getting closer and closer to them.

The IRA is an organization that has existed for hundreds of years. It was founded in 1919 with the goal of overthrowing England's rule over Ireland by force and seeking independence.

Their struggle was effective, and they eventually signed the Anglo-Irish Treaty with Britain, which led to the southern part of Ireland becoming the "Free State" which is now Ireland, and the northern part becoming the current Northern Ireland.

This incident also led to changes within the IRA. Some who supported the treaty joined the Irish Army, while those who opposed it and supported North-South unification continued to fight. They were often involved in violent incidents such as bombings. The British outlawed the organization, and all members could be arrested and imprisoned without trial.

Originally, the people of Northern Ireland had little interest in unification. After all, Britain was wealthy at the time, and there was nothing wrong with following Britain. However, the Royal Ulster Constabulary's crackdown on the protests later angered the people of Northern Ireland and they began to support the IRA.

The IRA also had financial backers. Irish Americans poured money into the organization, which provided them with weapons. That period was a nightmare for Britain: bomb attacks and assassinations were carried out across the country. Even Thatcher, the Iron Lady, was nearly killed by their bombs. Peace finally came with the signing of the Belfast Agreement.

The IRA also completely disarmed in 2005, but disarmament does not mean they no longer exist.

Now their influence is even greater!
