Then, I stepped on the rubber boat and rowed slowly on the sea. Of course I am not rowing home, this small island is very far from the city, how can I row back?As long as I float on the sea until dawn, the helicopter will naturally come to pick me up. At dawn the next day, I heard the sound of the helicopter. I had reached the place where I could not see the small island. I released a flare gun. The helicopter found me, let down the long rope, and pulled me into the helicopter. .Unexpectedly, Lieutenant Colonel Jack, who was in charge of secret work, was actually in the helicopter! I didn't meet Lieutenant Colonel Jack many times, and the words we talked face-to-face probably didn't exceed three sentences in total.

That's because I don't like Lieutenant Colonel Jack at all. If there is anyone in the world who is born to be a spy, a spy, then Lieutenant Colonel Jack is it. He has an extremely ordinary face.Strangely enough, he was a native English immigrant in Australia, but you wouldn't recognize him even among Orientals.With his appearance, he can mix with almost anyone without being recognized.And if you didn't speak first, he would never make a sound, just looking at you expressionlessly! At this time, in the helicopter, he looked at me expressionlessly, like a stranger in a tram.

I sat down, shrugged, and said, "Lieutenant Colonel, I don't think our meeting was a coincidence." "Of course not." There was still no expression on his face.A strange idea suddenly came to my mind. I think that Lieutenant Colonel Jack and Black are actually the same type of people.Didn't Yanfen and Wang Yan describe Braque as "an odd man like a rock"? Between Lieutenant Colonel Jack and Black, the only difference is that one is doing illegal killing.And one is just doing legal killings! I asked again: "It wasn't accidental, so it was intentional?"

Lieutenant Colonel Jack said in a deep voice: "Yes, I know that you will board the helicopter on the sea near here, so I came here specially to thank you." I couldn't help but feel very strange: "Thank you?" Lieutenant Colonel Jack nodded and said, "That's right, because you provided us with information about Black." I was taken aback and said, "Lieutenant Colonel, do you think this is something that can be discussed openly on any occasion?" I have already said that I don't like to deal with a cold-blooded animal like Braque (of course, saying "I don't like" is actually a kind of fear of Braque in my heart), so I informed the secret police working group of this information of.

Lieutenant Colonel Jack should of course keep this kind of informant a secret for me, and never speak nonsense.Now, even though it is on a helicopter, at least there is still a pilot. I really can't imagine how a seasoned intelligence worker would be so indiscreet. Lieutenant Colonel Jack looked at me sideways: "Wesley, are you afraid?" I can't help but a wave of anger rose from the bottom of my heart! I'm not a person who gets angry easily, but I couldn't contain my anger at this time.Generally speaking, when a person gets angry, either because the other party is unreasonable, or because his own weakness is rightly pointed out by the other party.

Now, Lieutenant Colonel Jack is not unreasonable, but also hit my weakness, how can I not be angry? Jack obviously saw my anger on my face. He pointed at the driver coldly and said, "We don't need to keep any secrets in front of him." I looked at the driver, only to find that today's driver has changed.It was a young man who could tell at a glance that he was too stubborn. At this moment, he was pursing his lips tightly, not uttering a word. Lieutenant Colonel Jack continued: "He is one of the best intelligence agents in our working group. Moreover, his elder brother stumbled and fell from the roof of a building yesterday because he was investigating Black's whereabouts!"

When Lieutenant Colonel Jack talked about "stumbling and falling", he especially emphasized his tone.Of course, the intelligence officer did not really "stumble and fall", but was plotted by Braque. I felt a chill in my heart.After I was silent for a while, I understood a little bit why Lieutenant Colonel Jack came to meet me. Without waiting for him to speak, I shook my head and said, "No, you don't have to expect me to participate in your work, I have my own business, and the secret service and intelligence work is the business of a country's government, and I am a civilian. Lieutenant Colonel Jack said slowly: "Our secret working group is not a secret service agency, but a working group affiliated with the police!"

I shook my head: "No, I have very important things to do, and I may have to go on a long journey immediately. How about we stop here?" Lieutenant Colonel Jack didn't make a sound. At this time, I suddenly felt that there was a sharp gaze shooting at me. I turned my head and looked at me with that gaze. It was the young intelligence officer. Looking at the young man's expression, I can naturally know what he is thinking and what he is going to say. I spoke before him: "Look at the instrument in front of you, don't look at my face, otherwise, before Brak comes to you, you will die, young man!"

The young man blocked my mouth, stopped talking, and turned his head away. My flat refusal obviously disappointed them both. But I also have reasons for refusing.Wang Yan and Yan Fen need my help urgently. I will try to restore them, or simply make them completely invisible. This requires extremely hard work, how can I take care of the killer King Brak? The rattling sound of the helicopter's wings rang out regularly, and no one in the cabin spoke anymore. After a while, the helicopter landed slowly, and when Jack and I stepped out of the cabin one after another, I was about to leave immediately, but Lieutenant Colonel Jack stopped me: "Wesley, won't you shake hands with me to say goodbye? "

I turned around and shook his big hand. He looked directly at me and said, "Don't you want to know why Braque came to the East?" I shook my head and said, "I'm an ordinary civilian, and it's none of my business." Jack said coldly: "You are not a civilian, you have a special certificate from the international police, you are a despicable mouse!" My face changed color and I said, "How dare you scold me?" Lieutenant Colonel Jack let go of my hand and turned around with a bah sound.I couldn't bear it any longer, I took a stride, rushed forward, aimed at Jack's ass, and kicked him!

I kicked this kick with the back of my foot, of course it wouldn't hurt him, but it made him jump up two or three feet, and then fell heavily to the ground. This heliport is exclusively used by the local police.At this time, there were many people at the airport, some were senior police officers, and more were ordinary police officers. Lieutenant Colonel Jack's high status in the police force is well known to everyone. At this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone, I kicked him to the ground. Suddenly, everyone stopped moving and turned to me. look. Before Jack got up, three tall armed police officers rushed towards me.I was slightly short, ready to make a scene, but Lieutenant Colonel Jack stood up, stopped the three policemen, sneered at me, and said, "Wesley, I will remember your kick." .” I answered him harshly: "I will also remember what you said just now." As soon as I finished speaking, I turned around and walked out. Several police officers obviously expressed their dissatisfaction and wanted to block the way, but under the stop of Lieutenant Colonel Jack, they did nothing. Suffocated, I left the heliport, walked for a while, and finally called a taxi. When I got home, I fell asleep. When I woke up, it was already afternoon. Only then did I start to think about where Wang Yan put the mysterious object in the brass box.According to my guess, Wang Yan must have brought that object to Professor Lomono that night. Then, this mysterious object that can make the muscle tissue of the human body become transparent is most likely in Professor Luo's residence. Professor Luo has gone to Egypt, and Black has been noticed by the police. So, has this mysterious object changed its location?I thought about it for a while, and felt that I should go to Professor Luo's residence again to see what happened before I could draw a conclusion. I was ready to apply everything, and when I was about to step out of the study, the phone rang suddenly. As soon as I picked up the receiver, I heard a pleasant female voice saying, "Please prepare to answer the long-distance call from Paris." I stayed for a while, the long-distance call from Paris, since Mr. Nelson died, I don't have any special acquaintances in Paris who will call me overseas. I held the receiver and stayed there for a while, when a very calm voice came from the other side, giving a name first.As soon as I heard the name, I was taken aback and said, "So it's Your Excellency." It was a very intimidating name, and in the international police force, his status was still higher than that of my late friend Mr. Nelson. "I heard that you rejected the invitation of Lieutenant Colonel Jack." The gentleman's voice was very steady and deep. He said this sentence, which made me sure of his identity. I was secretly cursing Jack, an old fox, for going to Paris to ask for help. I said angrily, "Jack didn't invite me to do anything, he just called me a despicable big mouse." "No, he said you were a mean rat, not a big rat." "What difference does that make?" "So you kicked him hard?" "Yes, did he tell you that too? I also corrected it. My kick was not hard." "Okay, it's not worth discussing." The other side suddenly sighed: "I'm just thinking, if Nelson was alive, what kind of decision would you make?" I fell silent, mourning my dear friend, and my heart grew very heavy. "It's nothing more, I wish you happiness." The other side was about to end the conversation. I hurriedly said, "Wait, are you calling long distance just to wish me happiness?" "I hope you're happy." "What else do you expect me to do?" I almost growled. "Oh, if you're interested, I hope you can contact Lieutenant Colonel Jack again and ask him how his excellent intelligence officer fell from the tall building." I sighed helplessly: "Okay, I will contact him, and hope he won't provoke my anger again." "I don't think so." The voice on that side was consistent, never agitated, and never slow, and it always had such an irresistible force. I put down the phone, and then dialed the special number of Lieutenant Colonel Jack. As soon as the phone was connected, I said bluntly, "Is it Jack?" "Yes, Wesley!" He knew I was going to call him. I said coldly: "Needless to say, how did your precious intelligence officer fall from the building?" I could hear Jack's voice enduring great anger, and said, "Can you come to the headquarters for a detailed report?" I said, "No, tell me on the phone!" Lieutenant Colonel Jack said: "After the intelligence officer fell to the ground, he didn't die immediately, but he said a few words. Those few words, to our ears, were inconceivable." I rejected him straight away, and said: "Since you have so many smart minds, you all think it's incredible, so I must think so too, so there's no need to say any more." Lieutenant Colonel Jack said angrily: "You are a—" I didn't wait for him to finish, and said, "You despicable mouse!" Still unwilling, he added: "Big rat!" With a "bang", the two of us dropped the phone almost at the same time.I was relieved because I turned him down again.Provoking him is the best way, because I never want to accept his invitation to fight Black. I turned around, however, as soon as I turned around, I couldn't help but freeze. I saw the handle of my study door, slowly turning.Someone is coming in. Who is that?Lao Cai would never open the door without making a sound. If someone is doing illegal activities, I was on the phone just now, and the voice was so loud. Could it be that the person is deaf and cannot hear me? Or are you confident enough to openly come against me? In less than a second, I have made a decision to hide first! I dodge, and dodge to the door. That was a very favorable position. That day I was able to avoid nearly 50 rounds of bullets fired by Braque in that storage room, because I occupied this favorable position. As long as the door is opened, my body will be covered by the door, and people who step through the door will not be able to see me immediately. Moreover, in my study, this position is even more advantageous, because there is a secret door next to the door, which can lead to my bedroom, and there is a very ingenious device on the secret door, so that I can clearly see everything in the study, and from the study, my hiding place is just a wall. As soon as I stood with my back against the wall, I lightly pressed the button to open the secret door, so that if necessary, I could enter the secret door immediately and silently. When I was ready, the door was opened. Up to this moment, I still couldn't figure out who it was that pushed the door open.Because that's an unreasonable thing, who would be so bold?I turned my head sideways, that way, I don't have to wait for that person to show up, as soon as the door opens, I can look out through the crack of the door and see who is standing outside the door. Two seconds after the door lock was unlocked, the door was gradually pushed open. The door has been pushed open about a foot. From where I was standing, looking sideways, the gap in the door was already half a finger wide. . There is no one outside the door! I suspected that I was dazzled, so I rubbed my eyes quickly. At this time, the door had been pushed halfway open, and I looked out through the crack of the door, and everything outside could be seen clearly. However, there was indeed no one outside. For a split second, I was completely bewildered.Is it the wind?What wind can turn the handle of a door?I never know what is happening now, but at least I can know that what I am experiencing now is a strange thing that I have never encountered in my life. I hastily stepped back half a step and opened the secret door with my back. In less than a second, I was already inside the secret door, but I could still look out through a special glass window and see the book. The situation in the room, and the sound in the study room can also be heard. The glass is specially made. From one side, it looks like ordinary glass, but from the other side, it looks like the wallpaper in my study. As soon as I hid in, I saw that the door of the study was completely opened, but there was still no one there. The doubts in my heart reached the extreme, and I was about to step out through the secret door. However, at this moment, the door of the study suddenly closed with a "bang" at an extremely fast speed. It was as if someone had slammed the door shut, but there was no one, and I never saw anyone there! The chill in my heart became more and more severe, and that chill quickly spread throughout my whole body. If I hadn't tried my best to restrain myself, maybe my upper and lower rows of teeth would already be trembling. I am by no means a timid person, and I am not afraid at this time, but the extremely weird and mysterious atmosphere made every nerve in my body tense to the extreme like a bowstring. I held my breath, and after the door of the study was closed, there was no movement. In my heart, I couldn't help thinking, could it be that it was really a strange wind? But my thoughts were immediately overturned by the facts in front of me. Can the strange wind make the chair of my desk squeak, and the seat cushion sink?There is no "strange wind" that can cause such a situation, and yet I see it now!
