Chapter 113 Don't look forward to the next time
Village in the glacial valley of Kashmir.
Ethan and his ex-wife and old lover Julia looked into each other's eyes, speechless; Julia's current husband, a young white man, glanced at Julia and Ethan from time to time, while chatting with Jiang Shan here and there.
"Man, all the Orientals I know are like this!"
He gave a thumbs-up, glanced at Julia, and said, "Our medical team worked in Africa before. I know a Dr. Chen. If Africans have a God, then he is the God of Africans!"
“He killed Ebola!”
One can tell that Bai Nan's words are filled with genuine admiration.
“If our funders hadn’t asked us to come here and solve the smallpox problem in this area, we would probably still be in Africa, working with Dr. Chen.”
"Some time ago, a deadly virus, Lamanla, appeared in Africa. Chen Bo is committed to researching the Lamanla vaccine, and I hope I can provide him with all the help I can."
At this time, Julia came over: "They have other things to do."
When Bai Nan heard this, he said "oh" and apologized to Jiang Shan: "Sorry, I didn't know."
Jiang Shan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter."
Said: "You guys are busy."
He nodded to Ethan who was not far away and pointed to the left; Ethan also nodded and pointed to the right, indicating that they should split up.
——At the foot of the hill on the left, in a wooden building, a faint and tempting "fragrance" came from.
That was the smell of 'food', exactly the same as the smell of the plutonium core obtained from the White Widow before.
Jiang Shan remembered that in the original plot, the people of the Apostle Organization waited until Solomon arrived here before they started assembling the atomic bomb.
Now Solomon is gone, Walker is dead too, and nearly twenty hours have passed.
The scent of the two plutonium cores was so clear and concentrated on the left side, not in other directions, which meant that they had not yet been assembled, nor had they been dispersed or transferred, but were still here. This meant that the Apostle Organization had no warning before this - they did not know that Solomon and Walker were dead.
However, Jiang Shan knew that the appearance of their group, who were completely different from the medical team, would most likely attract the attention and vigilance of the members of the Apostolic Organization lurking in this village.
Jiang Shan looked at the fragrance and walked down the slope to the left. He said to Elsa who was following him, "I thought you would go with Ethan."
Elsa said nothing.
Although she had some extraordinary feelings for Ethan because of her past experiences, that feeling was no match for the feeling Jiang Shan gave her.
More importantly, she is now facing a problem - Solomon is dead, and he did not die in her hands. She has no way to wash away the stain. She is considering whether to accept the recruitment of Jiang Shan, this extraordinary man, and work for him.
"Be careful."
Jiang Shan said, "I saw people from the Apostle Organization."
Those eyes, so clear.
As he spoke, Jiang Shan raised his hand and fired a shot. With the silencer turned on, a body fell from the wooden building at the bottom of the slope with a "puff".
Elsa held the gun in both hands and quickly pulled herself together, but unfortunately, she was following Jiang Shan and had no chance to take action.
When Jiang Shan and Elsa walked down to the wooden building, seven people had already died at the hands of his gun, one shot at a time, each in the head.
No one dares to show up.
Jiang Shan slowly walked up the ladder and came to the door. Suddenly, he reached out with his iron-like hand, penetrated the wooden wall on one side of the door, and pulled a person out alive.
He let go and pushed with his backhand, pushing half of the man's head into his chest.
Elsa, who was following beside him, couldn't help but shudder all over.
So brutal.
Jiang Shan kicked the wooden door open, but the person didn't move. Then there was a burst of gunfire, and then Jiang Shan rushed in. Elsa hesitated for a moment, and only heard a few muffled groans from inside, and then there was no sound.
When she went in, she saw some corpses lying all over the place, and then found Jiang Shan in a compartment inside. Jiang Shan was opening a box, revealing two spherical plutonium cores inside.
Jiang Shan thought about it, took out the plutonium core he had obtained from the White Widow, and placed it together with the two plutonium cores in front of him - they were a family, and they had to be in order.
Jiang Shan let out a satisfied breath.
Finally got them all.
After closing the box, Jiang Shan picked it up, looked at Elsa, smiled, and walked out.
As soon as I walked out of the wooden building, I saw Ethan and his two companions rushing over.
One of the two parties was on the ladder of the wooden building, and the other was under the ladder of the wooden building. After a pause, Ethan relaxed and let out a long breath: "Did you find it?"
Jiang Shan raised the box.
Ethan nodded. "I'm glad nothing unexpected happened."
Jiang Shan walked down the stairs, faced each other, and said, "Solomon and Lark are both dead. As long as the people here don't receive relevant news, there will be no accidents. We are still in time."
There is none of those thrilling moments - the so-called thrilling moments are often what happens when one is in desperate situation and has no other choice.
It's like walking on a tightrope; you might fall over in the next moment.
On the contrary, a plain and dull life with a strong start but a weak finish is the reflection of confidence.
It means there are no accidents.
Ethan smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Although I want to ask you for the plutonium core, I know that if I don't have you this time, I might be in trouble."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
He said, "I don't know how many reports I will have to write when I go back this time. Man, it's my honor to work with you once. But I don't look forward to the next time."
A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Shan's eyes.
He thought that Ethan would ask for the plutonium core; then he would kill these people and feel at ease.
But I didn't expect Ethan to say that.
Ethan is the Americans' ace agent, but what can be said about this man? Every time he is fooled, fooled, and calculated to solve various accidents or man-made crises, he will do his best, without any compromise, and even at the risk of his life.
Even with all kinds of grievances and false accusations, he could always stand firm.
This is a standard American hero template.
In Jiang Shan's opinion, it is people like Ethan who support the backbone of the Americans. It is undeniable that this guy is a good person.
But his hero is my enemy.
However, even so, Jiang Shan did not intend to feel guilty. He expected Ethan to show his American brutality to him, and then kill him, so that he would not feel guilty.
But Ethan didn't do what he wanted.
Luther and Benjy followed Ethan's lead, and even after Ethan said so, they didn't say anything.
Jiang Shan smiled and said, "I don't look forward to the next time either."
Maybe the two people's words had different meanings, but after they finished speaking, they both smiled.
"Then," Jiang Shan walked past Ethan, "Let's say goodbye now."
[Skill Points: 78]
Elsa followed Jiang Shan, and when she walked past Ethan, she paused for a moment, then followed him without hesitation.
Ethan yelled, "Elsa!"
Elsa turned back: "Goodbye."
Ethan was stunned.
It was not until Jiang Shan and Elsa disappeared from his sight that Benji muttered, "I thought you would ask for the plutonium core. You don't know how nervous Luther and I were at that time."
The fat black man Luther smiled and said, "He's a sharpshooter. I don't think our three little pistols can beat him."
Ethan shook his head. "It's the same whether he or we are. Both the Eastern powers and the United States have nuclear weapons. It doesn't matter who keeps the three plutonium cores."
Then he added: "Of course, it would be best if we could keep it. But as you said, we can't beat him."
As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the medical camp.
Luther and Benjy looked at each other and shrugged.
