Chapter 917: Sneaking into the Auction House
After seeing this information about Patricia St. Clair, Jack realized that he had never heard of a person like Jeffrey Epstein in this world. , the Loli Island case did not break out.
He checked the relevant information and found that there was indeed a rich man with the same name in the United States, but he died in a plane crash a few years ago.
Did a former presidential couple silence them in advance? Jack knew very well that he shouldn't delve into things he didn't understand. Apart from a bland documentary in his previous life, there seemed to be no movies or TV series that dared to touch on this sensitive event involving the upper class of Europe and America.
So in this world that has been deeply affected by various movies and TV dramas, it seems reasonable that similar global scandals have not broken out.
Frank hurried out after getting the investigation results. Cassel had not seen the specific situation in the Albanian gang's lair before, and was gritting his teeth while watching the TV reports.
Although several developed countries in Europe and the United States seem to have close relations, there are also many discords between them, especially regarding the reporting of negative news about each other.
If you want to know more about some scandals in the United States, Reuters, BBC, and AFP are the best sources of information. Vice versa, the Associated Press has always been very good at reporting European royal news. Drill.
If this scandal concerns Europe and the United States, then you can only read the TASS report. As for the trash media in a large Eastern country that can only parrot the news, you can basically ignore it.
Looking at the tragic plight of the rescued girls on the TV news, if Cassel might have thought that Jack and his father’s methods were too cruel before, now he only regrets that he could not do it himself Find some tricks on Mark Ou.
"There will be an underground auction tonight." Frank, who soon returned, brought back a piece of news.
He looked a little embarrassed. Jack noticed that there was some blood on his sleeves and the skin on his knuckles was broken.
"What did you do?" He was a little curious about how Frank got the information. Of course, he was mainly worried about the trouble that would follow.
Jack had tried his best to help cover up the ending, not only not letting Brian provoke his former colleague in the French intelligence service, but also disposing of Marc Ocha's body.
The plot of the second part of "Taken" is that the family behind Mark Ocha comes to seek revenge on Brian, and learns his identity from his former colleague.
Now there is a high probability that there will not be a second part. After all, the world generally develops according to normal logical lines. The problem is that since Brian has no problems, Frank should not make any trouble.
Frank flicked his wrist and said nonchalantly, "I just sat down and had a drink with an acquaintance from back then. The local gangs today are really rude."
Seeing his unwillingness After saying more, Jack didn't ask any more questions. Compared to Brian, Frank's identity was much more confidential.
The era when he was active was in the late Cold War. The drastic changes in Eastern Europe were like a major earthquake that affected the world, but it also gave birth to a large number of legendary intelligence officers comparable to 007.
Just look at Frank’s two long-term safe houses in Paris alone. He should have been active in Eastern and Western Europe back then.
"This auction is apparently a banquet, starting at 9 o'clock in the evening, in Mark Ocha's private club." Frank's face looked a little ugly.
Jack glanced at the time. It was already three o'clock in the afternoon. There was not enough time left for them to prepare. No wonder the bald man's face turned dark.
"How are you going to get in?"
It's definitely too late to get invitations or anything like that. Their purpose is to save people, not to kill everyone in and out, no matter what Paris says. In a country's capital, infiltrating in disguise becomes the only option.
"I heard that you are a good chef?" Frank smiled at Jack.
"Eh?"
——
When hobbies turn into work, happiness disappears. With an expressionless expression, Jack poured sauce on several portions of foie gras. Jack estimated that the time was almost up. He found a moment when no one was paying attention and hid in the utility room. He took off his chef uniform and put on a suit, straightening his tie. Become handsome again.
Guests gathered in the hall, chatting quietly in twos and threes. No one noticed that there was an uninvited guest here.
"Is there anything I can help you with? Sir." Brian, who was dressed like a waiter with a black tie and a white towel on his arm, appeared next to Jack holding a tray.
"Thank you." Jack picked up a glass of champagne from the tray and took a sip. He asked with a smile, "Where is the bathroom?"
"This way." Brian asked. gesture.
The two walked to a secluded place, and Jack asked in a low voice, "Have you found Patricia St. Clair?"
Brian nodded and looked at the other end of the hall. He opened the inconspicuous door and said, "There is an elevator inside, which should lead to the underground. He took people down just now, but there was someone guarding the elevator entrance."
After saying that, he stepped on the trash can next to him, poured all the wine glasses in the tray into it, stuffed the tray behind a pot of green plants, and walked straight into the bathroom.
A moment later, Brian appeared again, also wearing a high-end suit, and the two of them walked towards the small door together.
Opening the small door, a security guard in a black suit stood in the elevator room and asked respectfully, "How can I help you?"
"Let's see Mr. St. Clair. Brian said with a smile.
"Please tell me your name." The security guard opened the list in his hand.
"John Wigger." Jack gave his false name and closed the small door behind him seemingly casually.
"Uh, sorry, your name is not on the list." The security guard looked at Jack with some doubts, and was about to turn his eyes to Brian, but heard Jack continue to reply with a smile, "I know."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stepped forward and punched the security guard at the bottom of his ribs near his abdomen. The diaphragm between the chest and abdominal cavity was hit hard, and the severe pain could make people lose their breath in an instant. Ability, let alone calling for help.
While the security guard was bending over in pain, Jack had already turned behind him, restrained his neck with a naked choke with one hand, and pressed the elevator switch with the other hand.
The elevator door opened with a "ding-dong" sound, and Jack dragged the still twitching security guard into the elevator. Brian followed closely, pressed the button for the first floor, and the elevator door slowly closed.
Everything happened in a blink of an eye. Before the security guard could try to continue struggling, Jack broke his neck with a "bah" sound.
The sound of "ding dong" sounded again, and the elevator door slowly opened. Brian quickly looked around with a "spotted viper" with a silencer in his hand. After confirming that there was no one in the corridor, he quickly walked out of the elevator. Helped open the equipment room next to it.
Jack dragged the body into the equipment room, closed the door again, and then took stock of the situation on the underground floor. This underground auction was quite authentic, and it really put the auction house underground.
Although the elevator just showed the first floor below, judging from the time it took to get here from the first floor, the depth should not be less than 10 meters. Jack suspected that this might be part of a civil defense fortification.
There are two passages facing the elevator, and the one on the left is blocked by an iron door. There is a slight chill with the influx of moisture. Jack silently calculated the location of the building where the club is located. It is estimated that this place should lead directly to the Seine River.
The passage on the right has several steps leading down. The passage is very luxuriously decorated, with expensive marble pattern tiles on the walls. Needless to say, the auction house should be down there.
