Chapter 121 Wind Vane

Chapter 121 Wind Vane

Saib’s value cannot be squeezed out in one night, so Gao Yi can look for the arms dealer while waiting for Saib to be tried.

He couldn't do this alone. Greens wasn't prestigious enough, and even George himself wouldn't do it. The reason was simple: the CSA's presence in Baghdad was too weak.

But the CIA's words didn't work in front of an arms dealer, but they worked in front of the entire Iraqi government.

Greens' words were useless, but with just a word from George, the Iraqi military would send important people to accompany Gao Yi to do the work.

"This arms dealer is called Shovlov. He has been in Baghdad for many years. He has always lived in the Green Zone. Although he is Russian, he has no Russian background. He is just a pure businessman. Anyone can buy weapons from him, so he doesn't have any obvious inclinations. Therefore, Shovlov's force is not strong. If he wants to kill someone at all costs, it only means that he has been cheated of a lot of money."

Greens' eyes were a little red, which was the result of not sleeping all night, but his spirit was very excited.

The car stopped. Greens lowered the window and waved. Then, when an Iraqi military vehicle drove up, he pointed to the lane ahead and said, "Don't worry about who's in the car ahead, but they can definitely lead you to Xiaoluofu. When you see Xiaoluofu, just ask him whatever you want. Don't be polite. As long as the request is not too unreasonable, Xiaoluofu will definitely satisfy you."

A pure businessman is generally easy to talk to, and as long as there is no major conflict of interest, there will definitely be no danger.

But after he finished explaining, Greens suddenly said, "But if he doesn't know what's good for him, you can just ask him to get out of Baghdad, or let him die in Baghdad. No matter if he has connections with the CIA or the KGB, as long as he dares to leave the Green Zone, we can blow him up with missiles."

Greens didn’t speak so firmly before, but after just one night, he is now very confident.

Gao Yi said softly: "Well, okay."

Greens was tough. Besides Gao Yi, the happiest person was Peter.

Petel couldn't help but the corners of his mouth began to rise.

Greens looked at Peter, who couldn't help laughing, and suddenly took out a black certificate with a round badge on the cover. The pattern was a bald eagle holding three arrows.

Gao Yi didn't recognize this badge, but there were words written in circles on the round badge. Gao Yi took a look and saw that it said "U.S. Department of Defense."

Did the Secret Service actually use the Ministry of Defense credentials directly?

Gao Yi was still curious, but Greens said calmly: "We don't have a special certificate yet, so we are using this now. Your certificate hasn't come down yet, so this is a blank certificate, but!"

After a "but", Greens, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said to Petel, who was driving, "This certificate represents your identity. Do you know the meaning of this certificate?"

Greens still had some authority, and Petel said excitedly and nervously: "Sir, I... don't know."

Greens whispered, "This means you will get unconditional support from the military. We are short of manpower, funds, and even have to borrow office space, but we can call for support from the navy, army, and air force! What CIA! What Department of Homeland Security! Who can have our military strength? We don't have an action team, but the entire US military is our action team!"

After saying that, Greens patted Petel on the shoulder and said, "Of course, we have an action team now. Boy, you are the first captain of the first action team of the National Defense Secret Operations Agency. Don't embarrass our Secret Operations Agency, don't embarrass me, and don't embarrass...Booth!"

"Yes, sir! I...I know how to do it!"

They had not walked far when the military vehicle in front stopped. A middle-aged man in a short-sleeved shirt got out of the vehicle. Greens breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go ahead, I'll wait for you in the vehicle."

Greens will become the highest-ranking officer of the Secret Operations Bureau in Baghdad, so he cannot go to see Shovlov, because it would bring too much honor to Shovlov. If Shovlov wants to see him in the future, he will have to bring a valuable gift.

Gao Yi took Peter and Lin Xianghua with him. The three of them got out of the car and, under the polite guidance of the Iraqi man, walked into a seemingly inconspicuous courtyard in the Green Zone.

There was no communication throughout the process. The Iraqi just stood at the door and waited for a burly Russian man to open the door. Then he nodded to Gao Yi and left.

The sturdy man who opened the door said with a heavy tremor in his voice: "Please."

Xiaoluofu was not very polite. He didn't even go to the door to greet us in person.

Gao Yi didn't care about these faces, but after all, it was the Secret Operations Bureau that found the Iraqi senior officials. He was just a small arms dealer, but he dared to act so arrogantly. Could it be that he didn't want to continue his career?

With doubts in his mind, Gao Yi walked into a beautifully decorated living room. As soon as he entered the living room, he knew why Xiao Luofu did not come to the door to greet him.

A gray-haired old man, with water hanging from his arm, slumped on the sofa, looking exhausted.

Although he is an old man, he looks quite young. However, judging from his complexion, he looks like he is about to die.

Seeing Gao Yi enter the room, the old man forced himself to stand up, then he stood beside the sofa, tremblingly stretched out his hand, and said to Gao Yi: "Hello, I'm Xiao Luofu, I'm sorry that I can't greet you, my health..."

With a long sigh, Xiaoluofu forced a smile on his face and said reluctantly, "Welcome, sir."

Gao Yi couldn't bear it anymore, he shook hands with Xiao Luofu and found that Xiao Luofu's palms were cold.

Although he didn't understand Chinese medicine, Gao Yi also practiced martial arts and was very sensitive to physical conditions such as the circulation of qi and blood. Xiao Luofu's appearance was not pretended, he was really sick.

"What's wrong, Mr. Shovrov?"

Gao Yi let go of his hand and sat opposite Xiao Luofu. After Xiao Luofu was helped back to the sofa by the sturdy man who opened the door, he said helplessly, "Heart attack, almost died."

"You still have to take care of yourself. No matter what happens, your health is the most important thing."

Gao Yi comforted a patient out of Chinese habit, but Xiao Luofu grinned and said helplessly: "Thank you, but I really am... Hi!"

With another long sigh, Xiao Luofu shook his head and said to Gao Yi: "Excuse me...how can I help you?" He did not ask about Gao Yi's background or name, because Gao Yi would naturally bring up these things if he wanted to say them, and without announcing his identity, Xiao Luofu would definitely not ask.

Gao Yi didn't need to hide anything, he said calmly: "I heard that there is a Chinese person here, I want to meet him."

Xiao Luofu was stunned for a moment, because he didn't expect Gao Yi to make this request, but after a moment of hesitation, he immediately said: "Uh, um, can I ask what it is? This... Sorry, after all, I invited you here, if..."

Xiaoluofu must have received some news. He hesitated for a moment and finally said, "I'm sorry about what happened last night. I just wanted to kill Saib. I really don't have any other ideas."

Gao Yi waved his hand and said, "I'm not here to cause trouble for you. I just want to see if that Chinese guy is my... friend. Also, if it's convenient, I want to meet the person who fired the gun last night."

Don't scare a seriously ill old man. Gao Yi said gently, and then smiled, "I don't mean anything else, and I don't want to investigate anything. I'm just curious and want to meet him. If it's not convenient, forget it."

Xiaoluofu breathed a sigh of relief, and then he said to the strong man beside him: "Please ask them to come out, it's okay."

Gao Yi began to get excited, but his excitement didn't last long as four people came out from the room inside.

One yellow man and two white people.

Unexpected, yet expected.

Unexpectedly, I mean that the yellow man was definitely not Li Jie. What was expected was that it was the two white people I saw yesterday, the two I saw in the taxi.

Gao Yi stood up, looked at the yellow man and said, "You, you are not..."

The yellow man looked to be in his thirties, but his appearance clearly did not match Li Jie's photo.

"Hello, hello, hello, hello. Oh, I didn't expect to see a fellow countryman here."

The Chinese man came over very enthusiastically. After looking at Gao Yi, he smiled and said sincerely, "That's great."

Xiaoluofu said with some difficulty: "They are the snipers I hired. This one is..."

"Lao Feng! We are all Chinese, you can just call me Lao Feng."

Xiaoluofu hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the two white men next to him and said, "These two are also snipers I hired."

The two white men looked at Gao Yi with some caution. They just nodded but did not speak or introduce themselves.

Disappointment, that is quite disappointment, but looking at the old Feng in front of him, Gao Yi suddenly said: "Are you a sniper? You shot well last night."

"Last night... Oh! I was thinking your back looked familiar, it wasn't you last night, was it? Oh! Amazing! The way you dodged last night was really amazing, I can't deny it, no one has been able to dodge in that situation in all these years, what can I say, I'm sorry first, I really didn't mean to hit you, but you were too amazing, it was like a divine intervention, it was a stroke of genius!"

Old Feng was full of admiration and praise. He said sincerely, "I am convinced. I am really convinced. I am completely convinced!"

What to serve?
But I have to say that Gao Yi was quite happy after hearing what Lao Feng said.

Xiao Luofu kept looking at Lao Feng, seeming to have some concerns, but he couldn't say anything to Lao Feng.

At this moment, Lin Xianghua, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Weather vane!"

When Lin Xianghua said the word "weather vane" in Chinese, Petel looked at Lao Feng and pointed at him and said, "You are the weather vane!"

Patel spoke in English, but the meaning was the same, both were weather vanes.

Lao Feng's smile froze for a moment, then he continued to smile and said, "Well... I guess so."

If weathervane is a nickname, then what does it mean to be?

When Gao Yi was puzzled, Petel smiled coldly and said with contempt: "I didn't expect to see you here. I have heard of your name for a long time."

Gao Yi looked at Petel in confusion, because Petel's contempt was so obvious.

Seeing Gao Yi's confusion, Lin Xianghua said to Gao Yi without any concealment: "This man is very famous in the mercenary circle, a famous weathervane, and his best skill is to escape in time."

Lao Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "This... is actually all misunderstandings, rumors, rumors."

There is a story, but the person Li Jie was looking for was not found. Instead, a weather vane that looked like it had a bad reputation was seen.

Gao Yi was a little disappointed, very disappointed.

There seems to be no point in staying here any longer.

Looking at Gao Yi's expression, Xiao Luofu whispered, "If you have anything to say, why don't you sit down and talk slowly? What happened last night is my fault. Please don't cause trouble for them, okay?"

Gao Yi waved his hand and said helplessly: "I am looking for a Chinese person, but not Mr. Feng, so don't worry, you are fine."
