Chapter 925 Chess Game
Frank looked at Anna with a half-smile, "You are right, someone will suggest that Vasilev award you a medal. He may not agree, but after coming to Paris I will definitely summon you.”
After listening to the two men talking about the subsequent action plan, Jack looked at Brian, who just shrugged innocently.
Frank is really the right person for this matter. Only he, an old guy who has been involved in the complicated era of the late Cold War, can pull off the current situation.
——
Late at night, in the safe house, after eating some vegetable salad, Jack packed up and prepared to leave. This time the incubation time was not as long as before, but the evacuation would take a long time. Reducing unnecessary food can avoid trouble as much as possible. .
The rest of the people also had their own tasks. After Brian handed several bullets with red warheads to Jack, he quickly left.
Before him, Anna had already taken the lead. She should be nervously waiting for orders from the FSB in her apartment in the city center.
At around 3 a.m., Jack secretly sneaked into the observation deck under renovation while carrying the "TAC-50" on his back.
Frank said that the place had been temporarily suspended due to financial problems and promised that no one would disturb it, but he still carefully searched up and down and set up simple sound traps at several entrances.
Everything was ready, and the long wait began. The weather in the morning was good. It stands to reason that Paris has a temperate maritime climate, with no severe cold in winter and no scorching heat in summer, but there will be slightly more rain in spring and autumn.
Today is a crisp and sunny day in autumn. Jack wonders if Frank has taken this into account. Judging from the old spy's style of planning operations, it should be very possible.
At the same time, in the embassy two kilometers away from Jack, Anna was sitting on a bench in the corridor on the third floor, trying to adjust her breathing and heartbeat.
When Frank explained the whole plan, there was a moment when she wanted to give up directly. She even suspected that the whole thing was a conspiracy from the beginning. Starting from accidentally drinking the sleepy black tea and being kidnapped, she Just in the middle of a huge conspiracy.
Because all this is so incredible, when she was most helpless, a handsome figure suddenly came to protect her, just like a arranged story of a hero saving a beauty.
She admitted that she was a little delirious because of the drugs, and she was quite excited for a moment, but what agent has not received drug tolerance training?
However, just when she was about to act, the guy suddenly revealed his identity, and things developed completely beyond her expectation.
Anna has been secretly reminding herself that this may be a trap deliberately set by the other party, but her reason tells her that it is not.
She is just an insignificant little person. No one would set a trap for a little person like herself at the expense of the lives of so many rich and famous people.
When she took the "Spotted Viper" and followed Jack to make up for the damage, she made a point of confirming the identities of the people in the box. Although she didn't recognize them all, the faces of those few were familiar to her. There is no trace of makeup.
She knew that the subsequent conversation between the two was deliberately overheard by her, and she also knew that it was Jack who kindly gave her a hint, so Anna did not hesitate to grab the life-saving straw halfway.
After that, the development of things was beyond her expectation again. The girl was ready to give her everything, but she was disliked by some hateful guy.
What seemed so difficult to her was a matter that a certain bald man could figure out in just a few phone calls.
Frank's plan also stunned her. Not only did she not need to take too much risk, but she was no longer the ultimate executor and real beneficiary.
In this plan, the freedom she dreamed of and couldn't ask for seemed to have become a incidental thing. This was completely unreasonable but seemed so real.
A long time ago, Anna told herself not to trust men or anyone anymore. The only person she could rely on was herself.
But she couldn't do anything on her own, it was just changing from one cage to another.
"The General wants to see you." A man named Chenkov appeared in front of Anna.
Anna looked up at him. This man was once her hope. He recruited her into the FSB with a false promise. He was also the target of her original plan to seduce.
The only thing she has confidence in herself is her appearance. She can detect the desire hidden in this man's seemingly cold eyes, the desire to "eat her alive".
He will definitely not dislike himself for being too thin and having angular bones. This is obviously the body that every girl dreams of. Inexplicably thinking of another hateful man, Anna quickly gathered her thoughts, stood up and smoothed the wrinkles on her skirt, and followed Chenkov without saying a word.
Walking into an ordinary lounge, there was a small table in the middle. At this time, a chessboard was placed on the table, and an ashtray was placed next to it.
Anna subconsciously looked at the west-facing window and found that the red curtains had been drawn up, but the window had not been opened.
Vasilev had a cigar in his mouth. When he saw Anna, he just nodded slightly towards the seat opposite him and motioned for her to sit down.
"I invited you to play a game the last time we met, but you rejected it. You shouldn't reject me again this time, right?"
Anna forced out a smile and sat down in Vasi Opposite Lev.
The last time she saw this general, he had a gun pointed at his head one second, and the next second this lunatic asked to play chess with her. Can she muster up the courage to reply that it will be another day? It is putting life and death aside.
Thinking of this, Anna glanced out the window again. Vasilev seemed to have misunderstood something, and nodded to Chenkov who was accompanying him, "Go and open the window."
The girl was slightly startled. She didn't expect that the only task assigned by Frank was completed so smoothly, and she didn't even need to pretend to be choked by cigarettes.
Vasilev was in a good mood today. Although the important guest was stuck halfway due to traffic problems, it also gave him a rare break.
Although his subordinates would prepare a smoking room and chess for him wherever he went, Vasilev rarely used them, one reason was lack of time, and the other reason was the lack of good opponents.
The girl in front of him is a good opponent. She is stubborn and refuses to admit defeat. He only hopes that her chess skills can be as good as what is written in her information.
“I must admit that I didn’t have much hope for you at first. If a girl is too beautiful, she will become a big trouble sooner or later, so we usually only hire ordinary-looking ones.”
Vasilev was stroking the gray beard on his chin. His stone-green pupils were a little white because of his age, like the eyes of a dead fish. They were extremely penetrating when he stared at people.
Anna didn't respond, and didn't know how to respond. She concentrated on thinking, and then moved the pieces on the chessboard.
Vasilev kept chattering to himself, "Your superiors suggested to me that you be awarded a Medal of Excellence. If you can beat me today, that medal will be yours. What do you think?" Like?"
"I will try my best." Anna tried to restrain herself from looking at the window and tried her best to focus on the chessboard in front of her, but it was really difficult.
As time passed bit by bit, she even had a suspicion. The experience of the past few days was like a dream, becoming no longer so real, as if everything was imagined by her. .
Could all of this be a dream? I am actually still under the effect of hallucinogens. Because I am too eager for freedom, I have imagined this series of incredible experiences. In reality, I am actually in a certain place. The body of an obese rich man was being ravaged.
"It seems that you are not in good condition today. If that's the case, the medal will be far away from you."
For a while, even Vasilev's voice on the opposite side became a little blurry. clear.
"General!"
A few drops of warm liquid suddenly splashed on her face, Anna suddenly came back to her senses, and then she heard a belated sound of breaking through the air. .
“Whoops!”
