Chapter 239 Not Following the Script
Chapter 239 Not Following the Script
Lucy woke up first.
After waking up, she didn't open her eyes immediately, but you could see her eyeballs moving, even through her eyelids. Then, her eyeballs stopped moving.
Gao Yi found it very interesting, so he didn't say anything, but decided to observe what Lucy would do.
There are not many people who can pretend to be asleep in front of Gao Yi, and there is no one who can pretend to be unconscious in front of him.
Because Gao Yi practiced Xingyi, Bagua, Tai Chi, and even Xinyi, and in the end they all had to be linked to breathing. In other words, as long as you practice this kung fu, every breath counts.
So other people's breathing is an unconscious survival behavior, but Gao Yi's breathing is the result of his practice for more than ten years.
Some masters of internal martial arts can pretend to be asleep and fake their breathing state when sleeping, but people in a coma, after losing consciousness, cannot consciously adjust their breathing.
When Lucy woke up just now, her breathing was briefly confused. Although she quickly adjusted herself, and Lucy's body did not move at all and her eyes were not open, Gao Yi still found her immediately.
Then I saw Lucy closing her eyes and feeling her own condition.
First, feel that your body is in bed, which means you are out of the battlefield, and you are still covered with a quilt, which means that at least the environment is not hostile.
After a simple judgment by touch, Lucy opened her eyes slightly and observed with her eyes. Then, after discovering that this was not a hospital, and the prison was not a prison, but a large room with several beds, Lucy must have felt puzzled.
So Lucy didn't rush to open her eyes. She should be trying to analyze what was happening.
It was not until Lucy stopped moving and only used her eyes to move around, and then saw Gao Yi, that she finally let down her guard and slowly opened her eyes.
"you're awake."
Gao Yi welcomed Lucy's awakening with a gentle and happy voice.
Lucy opened her mouth and spoke something in French, which was her native language. Even though her mind was not very clear, she knew how to judge whether the environment was safe or not, but she didn't know how to adjust her language.
After a moment, Lucy changed her language and whispered, "Master."
I can’t stand it. I really can’t stand it.
A beautiful woman, the first thing she does after waking up is to call her master.
Gao Yi knew this was very strange, but he felt extremely satisfied in his heart, which made him very... contradictory.
"What is our current situation?"
"We are at the Elysee Palace, but we are about to be taken to the swimming pool, uh, the swimming pool refers to the headquarters of the French Directorate-General for External Security."
Lucy showed a very shocked look on her face. She asked in astonishment: "Elysee Palace?"
By the way, logically speaking, Lucy should be French.
The White House in the United States is open to the public for visits every year, but the Elysee Palace has only been open once in more than a hundred years.
Lucy's presence was not strong in this battle, because she withstood the enemy's attack on the back door, but was knocked unconscious in the very beginning. She was completely unaware of everything that happened afterwards.
Gao Yi stepped forward and helped Lucy to sit up slowly. He asked gently, "Are you dizzy? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is there anything wrong?"
Lucy's psychological shock was obviously stronger than her physical shock. She asked in bewilderment, "Why are we in the Elysee Palace?"
"This is a long story..."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Lucy turned her head and looked at the knocking door. Gao Yi raised his voice and said, "Come in."
The door opened and Marina entered.
Looking at Lucy who was sitting up, Marina smiled slightly, and then she said naturally: "Everything is ready, you can leave now. This lady is awake, congratulations."
Marina's attitude was impeccable, there was nothing much to say, just move away.
But Lucy looked at Marina with a puzzled look. For some reason, there was a strong sense of vigilance on her face.
Weird.
Marina was in her forties and not very pretty, although it was said that people of the same sex would repel each other, but the age gap was too big.
Logically speaking, Lucy shouldn't have any hostility.
Gao Yi was wondering, but Lucy turned her head slightly. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly said, "Swimming pool..."
Marina smiled and said, "You'll like it there. Okay, let's go."
With a wave of his hand, a group of people came in and started moving the seriously injured onto the wheelchair.
Abdullah and his team were also there, but they were only responsible for supervision and did not do anything themselves.
In the early morning when the sky was slightly bright, Gao Yi and his companions were all transferred out of the Elysee Palace. Gao Yi just casually looked at this famous palace where he had only stayed for one night. This was probably the only time he could come here in his life, and he was indeed a little regretful that he could not have a good visit.
The good news is that Gao Yi and his team can have a good visit to the French Directorate-General for External Security. In theory, the level of confidentiality of the French Directorate-General for External Security is even higher than that of the Elysee Palace.
The headquarters of the Directorate-General for External Security is located in the old barracks of Motiers near the Tourville swimming pool in the 20th arrondissement, which is in the eastern suburbs of Paris. It looks ordinary from the outside, but it covers a large area and has a circle of walls with barbed wire on top. That's it.
The office locations of several major intelligence agencies in the world are no secret, and most of them are located in densely populated areas. However, they retain the most mysterious veil in prosperous places. Getting close to secrets is probably the greatest sense of accomplishment of being able to enter the headquarters of an intelligence agency.
The car that picked up Gao Yi and his friends stopped in front of a building, and then several injured people were pushed out of the ambulance and taken directly to the inpatient department.
Yes, this is not a hospital, but it has professional wards and professional doctors.
Gao Yi and his friends were arranged to stay in a vacant guest room.
Of course Marina used the term "guest rooms", and it was a nice way of saying it. The main purpose of these rooms was to provide dormitories for spies with important missions to study and train for a long time, and to detain or protect important people. So, according to the French people's stinginess, as long as no one used them, these rooms were indeed guest rooms.
There are four guest rooms in total, one is given to Lucy, and the rest are divided among the men as they see fit.
Gao Yi lived in a single room, which should be used by senior agents. The furnishings inside were quite rich and very much like the style of a hotel.
Then Gao Yi did not rush back to the room to rest. He was helping Lucy. When he helped Lucy lie down on the bed and had almost dealt with some miscellaneous chores, Marina knocked on the door again at the exact moment.
It was just daybreak when she arrived, and after all the cleaning and tidying up, it was now eight o'clock in the morning. For the French, this was still early in the morning and they had not yet started work. But no one knew why Marina came again.
"Have you packed? If you have, please follow me."
Marina smiled, and then she said seriously: "Go do some morning exercises, then have breakfast and have a cup of coffee."
Gao Yi asked in surprise: "Now?"
"Right now, we can't wait any longer. I hope you understand how anxious we are. So I'm sorry, can we start now?"
Are you so eager to be tortured?
Gao Yi couldn't say that he was very angry, but to be honest, the reason why he was willing to come to the swimming pool and communicate with the French External Security Agency was because he was threatened.
Forget it, since they are looking for trouble, don't be polite.
Gao Yi whispered to Lucy: "Have a good rest, I'll be back soon."
Lucy showed an unhappy expression on her face, and of course, her displeasure was directed at Marina.
Glancing at Marina, Lucy whispered, "Be careful, I don't feel well."
"Ah."
Gao Yi stood up and said to Marina, "Let's go."
Gao Yi had already figured out how to show off and get slapped in the face.
It's a common routine. If you go there, you will definitely be looked down upon. First, someone who is usually good at fighting will come up and slap you in the face, and say something stupid but reasonable, such as "Watch how I deal with you, the loser", and then Gao Yi will come up and slap you in the face.
According to convention, the first one to be beaten was not badly enough, because Gao Yi did not understand the situation and had to show some mercy to his subordinates. As a result, the real master hidden in the French Directorate-General for External Security made a misjudgment, thinking that he could take down Gao Yi, so the second one jumped out, but was killed instantly by Gao Yi and slapped in the face again. Only after this could he win respect and truly defeat the French Directorate-General for External Security.
The third person comes up to genuinely ask for advice. After being beaten into submission, a person with good eyesight and who truly enjoys fighting comes out to show his true admiration and then sincerely asks for advice. This is the convention.
As for these little things, those who have read the book know them, and those who have watched the movie also know them clearly. Gao Yi has experienced them before, so he knows what to do.
It's simple, just go up and beat them, show no mercy, make them unable to get out of bed for three days, but don't hurt them too much, just beat them into submission quickly and that's it.
They walked through a corridor and deliberately went outside to prevent Gao Yi from seeing anything he shouldn't see, then entered the headquarters building through a door. However, the corridors along the way must have been cleaned, and finally they arrived at an indoor training camp.
Gao Yi followed Marina into a fighting arena covered with mats. It should not be a place for training new students. There are special places for that. This should be a place similar to a gym.
The fighting arena was not very big, but there were quite a lot of people. Gao Yi took a quick look and saw that there were at least thirty people, filling up the 50-square-meter room.
Hurry up and have breakfast.
Gao Yi made up his mind, and Marina stepped forward and said loudly: "This is Bu San! You have already seen the case. It is a rare learning opportunity to invite Bu San to communicate with us. Don't miss this opportunity. Welcome Bu San."
After Marina finished speaking, she began to lead the applause, and then extremely enthusiastic applause quickly rang out in the fighting arena.
Gao Yi found himself surrounded by looks of admiration and respect.
This is not right, this is not normal, there must be something wrong.
Gao Yi didn't know how to respond, so he said as he expected: "Hello, does anyone want to try it out?"
The applause was so enthusiastic that Gao Yi stopped talking. After hearing Gao Yi's words, none of the more than 30 people present stood up.
The scene was a little awkward.
Gao Yi regretted that he shouldn't have followed the script because the other party didn't follow the script.
