Chapter 182: Chapter 182 Victoria
Mountain Eagle received a phone call five minutes later, then walked for about a kilometer before boarding a car, from a brand he had never seen before, that was visibly aged.
Sitting in the passenger seat and looking at an old white-haired lady wearing silk pajamas in the driver’s seat, Mountain Eagle curiously said, "Hello, I am Mountain Eagle. You are...?"
The white-haired lady glanced at Mountain Eagle with a sidelong eye, took out a box of lady’s cigarettes from the glove compartment, and lit one for herself...
Blowing a puff of smoke into Mountain Eagle’s face, the old lady rolled her eyes as she started the car and while driving, she said: "I am Victoria, Mi Lu’s ex-wife..."
Mountain Eagle was stunned for a moment, then with a face full of sincerity and curiosity, he said, "How could a grump like Mi Lu have married a lady like you and let you become his ex-wife?"
Victoria glanced at Mountain Eagle, who had spoken pleasantly, smiled and said, "Because I hated that damn Arctic Fox, so I made Mi Lu choose between the Arctic Fox and me..."
As she spoke, Victoria looked at the flustered Mountain Eagle and said nonchalantly, "Don’t worry about my relationship with Mi Lu. Think about yourself?
You just eliminated 6 assassins from Georgia who entered Russia through the intelligence channels and also injured many gunmen from the Songgai Brothers Association.
You’re in trouble..."
Mountain Eagle nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders and said, "I was already in trouble...
According to my experience, to deal with such troubles, I first need to become the ’big trouble’ in the eyes of others, then I will have room for negotiation."
As he spoke, Mountain Eagle suddenly noticed some clothes on the backseat through the rearview mirror and realized something...
Looking at Victoria, still delicate despite her wrinkles, and noticing the gold ring with an emblem on her right middle finger, he curiously said, "Are you the senior mentioned by Selena?
The purple evening dress she wore before was stunning, and it had the same emblem as on your ring. I didn’t expect Selena borrowed the dress from you."
Victoria probably did not expect Mountain Eagle, who appeared to be a burly gunman, to have such keen observational skills...
She slightly raised her eyebrows, turned her head to look at Mountain Eagle, and smilingly said, "You are smart, what next?"
Mountain Eagle frowned and said, "You have been misleading Selena, from the plane, you made Selena focus on me.
What good does this do?
Making Selena a scapegoat, asking her to risk her career and even life by probing into the issues inside the Great Russian Intelligence Bureau?
Are you in cahoots with Erin?"
Upon hearing this, Victoria sneered, "Erin is a mad bitch only thinking about climbing up...
Selena is the child I adopted, I originally didn’t want her to enter the intelligence department of Russia, but sometimes fate is unpredictable.
Selena, who had been practicing ballet since childhood, was spotted by a bastard and then recruited.
They wanted to train Selena into a Swallow..."
After listening, Mountain Eagle pondered for a moment and said, "Why didn’t you stop her?"
Victoria replied with a grim expression, "I was in Spain at the time, by the time I found out, Selena had already entered the training camp..."
Mountain Eagle suddenly understood and said, "Just because you didn’t want her to become a spy, she was sent to the cold bench on her first day at the Fifth Intelligence Bureau.
What about this time?
I can’t believe you didn’t realize how dangerous this situation is..."
Victoria answered with a complicated expression, "Selena has worked in the archives for three years, but she didn’t want to quit.
Elder bitch Erin has caused big trouble this time, to save her own life, she needs to pull a bunch of moths out from inside the intelligence bureau to cover for her.
Since someone must do it, why can’t Selena seize this opportunity to reach the top?"
Mountain Eagle, astounded, gave a thumbs up...
Erin, Blood Fox’s ex-wife, caught by the Belgar Lake Foundation for her daughter’s sake, had to meet their demands to solve her problem...
But she couldn’t bear the charge of treason, so while collaborating with the Belgar Lake Foundation, she was also trying to extract some internal moths to cover for herself.
When it came time to settle accounts, she could turn the situation around by acting as a mole within the organization.
Mi Lu’s ex-wife, Victoria, seems no less capable...
When she discovered Erin’s ordeal, her first thought was to let her adopted daughter seize this opportunity, to use the clearance of internal moths to let Selena make a splendid transformation.
There must be an understanding between these two old ladies, but each had their own scheme...
The most unfortunate were Blood Fox and Mi Lu, two old men caught in the storm’s eye, their ex-wives causing chaos outside while they could only guard Snowden.
And aside from Assange’s supporters’ five million US dollars, these two old men wouldn’t get anything else but trouble.
Looking at Victoria’s still charming profile, Mountain Eagle helplessly shook his head, saying, "Have you ever thought that Selena might not be able to handle it?"
Victoria nonchalantly replied, "Mi Lu said Blood Fox had taken a smart and capable apprentice, and he said this apprentice would definitely be glad to help Selena..."
As she spoke, Victoria glanced at Mountain Eagle, smilingly saying, "You indeed made it happen!"
Mountain Eagle listened and shook his head with a wry smile...
He now realized how formidable these old intelligence operatives were...
They didn’t make any demands, but they provided some information at the right time, and he naturally followed the path they had planned.
Although later, Mountain Eagle began to disagree with Blood Fox on some matters, prompting him to take the initiative seeking more control and rewards.
However, the collaboration with Selena had been established, and given his personality, he would definitely not ignore the matters concerning Selena and Sergei.
Launching the ’lethal blow’ was crucial for Mountain Eagle to establish his leverage.
Specifically, whether to target the assassins coming after Snowden or the internal pests in Russia, honestly, Mountain Eagle didn’t see much difference.
Targeting the former would reduce the pressure on Blood Fox and the others, while targeting the latter would create more profound influence.
What he needed most now was to make others recognize his capabilities and influence, thereby pushing up the transaction cost for the bigwigs of Silicon Valley and making negotiation a viable option.
This was precisely why Mountain Eagle dared to grenade the underworld gang!
Some things not only need to be done but also need to be known by everyone—that is when they truly matter!
An assassin who sneaks attacks from the shadows will always just be a tool.
Those who hold power and wealth would never negotiate with a mere tool; they would only look for a better tool to destroy it!
Victoria looked at Mountain Eagle who had fallen silent, her eyes smiling as she said, "Blood Fox mentioned that you were eager to make your enemies bleed, aiming to establish your own reputation...
I have a few targets here that might interest you, are you interested?"
Mountain Eagle didn’t want to be led by the nose by this cunning old lady, he decisively shook his head and said, "I’m not interested in being an assassin..."
Victoria smiled and shook her head, saying, "What if it involves killing those after the couple of thieves?"
Mountain Eagle frowned, asking, "Who exactly are they?
Why is someone relentlessly pursuing them? What’s with that child?"
Victoria glanced at Mountain Eagle and with a chuckle said, "Blood Fox said he gave you his International Intermediary Company account, you really should check it often so you wouldn’t miss some major news."
Mountain Eagle, feeling helpless, said, "I really didn’t know, could you please tell me so I know who my opponent is?"
Victoria slowed the car, her expression slightly regretful as she said, "That thieving couple is quite famous; they are among the top figures in Europe’s thieving circles.
But this time, they stole something they shouldn’t have..."
Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle asked, surprised, "The child?"
Seeing Victoria nod slightly, Mountain Eagle curiously asked, "Why would they steal a child?
Given their status as top figures in the thieving circles, they definitely wouldn’t lack money, even if they can’t have children, why the need to steal a child?
What’s special about that child?"
Victoria’s expression turned somber as she said, "Have you heard about custom genes?
That child is a product of a laboratory, and the head of the lab claims that the child is the most perfect product they have produced in thirty years.
That thieving couple originally intended to spend a fortune to custom order a child for themselves, but something happened, and not only did they steal the child from the lab, they also exposed the surrogacy industry operated by the lab, leading to its shutdown.
Snowden took up most of the media headlines, so this sensational story didn’t get much attention.
However, many people are interested in that child, including those who hired the Songgai Brothers Association to hunt down the couple.
That person is Bolonicov, a small oligarch in Russia’s pharmaceutical industry, and a major investor in the surrogacy business and laboratory, also operating several similar life science labs...
This guy has been freely operating until today because he has deep connections within the Russian Intelligence Bureau, and he also supports a group of formidable gunmen.
It’s said that someone in the United States is in contact with Bolonicov because the documents Snowden brought out contained some unspeakable content about the pharmaceutical industry..."
Mountain Eagle felt no impact from the so-called ’Perfect Gene’; in the business market, every few years, something emerges that’s touted as a ’perfect product’.
In Mountain Eagle’s view, there is nothing perfect in this world; anything labeled as ’perfect’ is just a hype, often used to attract investment and enlarge business value.
Mountain Eagle felt indifferent about the surrogacy industry; if some are willing to sell their wombs, others shouldn’t needlessly interfere.
But when surrogacy is connected with experiments, it becomes a devilish industry!
Even setting aside the ethical and moral issues, using people, especially babies for experimentation, in Mountain Eagle’s view, is a wrong deserving of hell.
Looking at the disgust on Victoria’s face, Mountain Eagle shook his head expressionlessly and said, "How much did Mi Lu tell you about me?
If you want me to kill someone, there’s no need to be so deliberate about it; just knowing that they deserve to die, I wouldn’t spare the bullet."
After saying this, Mountain Eagle closed his eyes and thought for a few seconds, then said, "How can you prove what you’re saying is true?
My time is precious now, and everything I do is centered around demonstrating my ability and determination.
I don’t mind killing a bastard, but how can you ensure that while I gain fame, it won’t cause the Russian authorities to trouble me?"
Victoria laughed upon hearing this and said, "If you need, you can obtain a commission from me.
As long as you bring me a photo of Bolonicov’s dead body, I can’t guarantee the whole world would know, but the entire underworld in Moscow will recognize ’Mountain Eagle’.
Also, the media will expose Bolonicov’s evil industries, incidentally involving a few guys from the intelligence departments that Erin bitch wants gone.
And you, Thai Police Yue Shan, can continue to stay at the Four Seasons Hotel..."
Hearing this, Mountain Eagle looked at Victoria in shock and said, "You’re a middleman?"
Victoria glanced at Mountain Eagle, lit a cigarette for herself, took a puff, and said, "Is it so strange?
I’ve been a spy all my life, retired at 39 due to the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
What do you think a woman like me could do?
Become a salesperson?"
