In addition to an address, the text message also contained a paragraph that stated the trading time and that the trade would be held in the form of an auction.
All buyers are requested to prepare the required funds and pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in one hand.
Rachel Dalton handed the phone to the director, who took one look at it and said not to tell people in the United States yet.
"Solanum must remain in our hands, not even the Americans can stop it."
This technical route for miniaturizing nuclear weapons is needed by all nuclear-armed countries.
Not to mention that the technology it uses is completely different from existing ones.
In the face of real interests, there are no allies or non-allies.
"I understand, Director."
Rachel and Dalton walked out of the director's office, knowing that this was the final test of whether Branch 20 would exist after that.
"Owen Xiao is ready. They can raid the trading location at any time."
…
Luke Hobbs was still arguing with the British at Scotland Yard, and his staff and those in other departments were getting impatient.
"Boss, are we just waiting here?"
Hobbes was not in a hurry at all. He had already thought about it, and he absolutely could not bear the blame.
Then the other departments will definitely make small moves. This will definitely be a chaotic mission, and then all the responsibilities will be passed on to them.
After arguing for a long time, Hobbes took a sip of water before asking, "Is there any news about Dominic Toretto?"
Of course they couldn't do nothing, and finding this street racer seemed like the safest thing to do at this time.
As for the nuclear bomb, stop talking about it. He is the FBI, not James Bond.
"His companions have all arrived in London, but they are currently hiding.",
Dominic's previous racing scene was captured by Scotland Yard's surveillance cameras, but he subsequently lost track of him.
After all, London is an international city, and there are really many places to hide.
If these people decide to hide, it's really hard to find them.
"Keep an eye on him. This group of people is probably related to this incident."
Hobbes already knows about the existence of Letty. Based on her relationship with Toretto, Family Man will definitely conflict with Owen Shaw.
And Owen Xiao obviously came here for that nightshade, so Toretto is likely to get involved in this matter.
So starting with Toretto may be a safer direction to start.
However, Da Ying did not tell Hobbs about the shooting that day, otherwise Hobbes would realize that the matter had reached a very serious stage.
…
Toretto is obviously weak in intelligence, and it is impossible for him to know Owen Xiao's current location.
Of course, he didn't know what Owen Xiao planned to do. He only knew that his amnesiac girlfriend had been robbed.
And there was a bitch who wanted to take his life.
"Brian, I'm sorry, I told you to accompany Mia before."
Toretto felt a little sorry for his brother-in-law. If the matter hadn't been extremely urgent, he would never have called Mia away.
"Dom, we are family."
Nothing can cheer up Dominic Toretto more than these words.
"Yes, we are a family, and this time we are going to bring Letty back."
Toretto looked at these partners in front of him and felt that the whole world could be trampled under their feet.
"The top priority is to find the trace of that guy."
There is also a technician on his management team, black Taj Parker said, "This is not Rio. Without professional equipment, I can't access Scotland Yard's database."
"Hey, others can invade with just a mobile phone, why are you so useless?"
Another black man mocked at the side, and Taiji raised his middle finger at him, "The other person you are talking about must be from the movie you watched last night."
There is nothing Toretto can do in this situation. The car is okay, but the professional equipment Taiji needs is really not available in a short time.
Taj Parker also knew that this would not be available immediately, and they were in a bit of a rush this time.
He could only use his subjective initiative, "Forget it, I'll find a friend to find a solution."
However, this mission made it clear that it was impossible for them to be fully prepared.
Just when everyone is planning to find resources through personal channels.
Toretto received a text message on his cell phone, which directly stated the location of Owen Shaw, and of course also included Letty's photo.
"That guy again?"
Brian saw the news, and the FBI's intuition told him that the person behind the scenes had no good intentions.
"Does this person want to use us to deal with Owen Xiao?"
We can only guess like this, otherwise this matter really doesn’t make sense.
"There's no time to think about it, I'll go right away."
Toretto had no time to think about whether he was being taken advantage of. He was already focused on Leti.
"By the way, Taiji, check what this nightshade is."
The message also said that Owen Xiao's target was something called nightshade.
Taj Parker agreed, and he immediately took out his laptop and started searching.
At 7:30 in the evening, all the people gathered in London began to take action.
However, these people did not know that there were slight discrepancies between the information they received, and the time and place were wrong.
Among them, the MI6 informant got false information, but only Owen Xiao got the truth.
And when MI6 passed its false news to Owen Xiao, this man had already led his people to take action.
Even after seeing it, he thought MI6 was going to burn bridges, so he threw the mobile phone they used to communicate out of the car window.
After this deal is completed, who will be MI6's dog again?
The time given by the seller is quite tight. It only takes ten minutes to get to the destination from where they are.
The other party made it very clear that if you are late, you will voluntarily give up the auction.
Owenshaw and his group traveled in two vehicles, a modified Land Rover Defender and a van containing the racing car.
"We have enough time, and they also need time to auction."
Leti, who was driving, skillfully shifted gears to overtake, and now she knew that they were going to rob an auction.
For an auction that Owen Xiao attaches so much importance to, there must be something of extremely high value on site.
However, Owen Xiao did not tell the other party what nightshade was.
"You're right."
Owen Xiao looked at his watch and saw that there was indeed enough time. With Letty's driving skills, it was not impossible to arrive in advance.
However, they were not there to participate in the auction, but to rob. It was best to arrive when the sale was about to be completed.
The place will definitely be heavily guarded by then, and they need to catch the other side off guard.
…
At the same time, a rapid response team composed of Scotland Yard police and CTSFO drawn from various London police stations has also begun operations.
Of course, it is impossible for Da Ying to leave the whole matter in the hands of a group of mercenaries. Owen Xiao is at best a backup candidate and the person who will ultimately take the blame.
If a firefight does occur and there is too much collateral damage, then throwing this group of mercenaries out to deal with the thunder is the best option.
Of course, what they really count on is the truly elite anti-terrorism force in their hands.
CTSFO was established before the 2012 London Olympics in response to possible terrorist attacks.
Upgraded based on the original SFO, the team members wear Arc'teryx leaf series wolf gray flame-retardant combat uniforms, BHI vests, and are generally equipped with semi-automatic SIG516 rifles.
As a side note, Umbrella's SIG516 are all fully automatic versions, and Dayou really can't stand up to this semi-automatic version.
In addition to these anti-terrorism special police officers, the SAS is also ready to take action.
Da Ying not only plans to grab Solanum nigrum, but also plans to kill all the buyers in one fell swoop.
These people are all potential threats. If we don't take this opportunity to eliminate them together, are we still going to keep these people for the New Year?
The police stations in each district, which had been prepared long ago, immediately surrounded the area where the transaction was located, from three floors to three floors outside.
Of course, such an obvious move could not be concealed from Americans like Hobbs, who all understood that Da Ying already had accurate information.
In addition to Hobbes, people from the CIA, NSA, and DSS (Secret Service) are all putting pressure on Da Ying to join the operation.
Even if it is difficult to get nightshade, we still have to control the buyers.
As for Luke Hobbs, the nominal team leader, they have long forgotten about it.
But this tower-like man didn't seem to care at all.
His people have found Toretto's figure in London's surveillance system, but it seems a little strange.
Hobbes stood in front of the monitoring screen with his hands behind his back. The route Toretto was traveling was a bit strange.
This guy is here to cause trouble for Owen Xiao. According to common sense, it is speculated that he may know some information about the other party.
I chased him out at this time, probably knowing Owen Xiao's actions.
However, his route and Da Ying's arrangement are completely in two directions.
"No way, are you being tricked?"
Thinking of this possibility, Hobbes really broke out in a cold sweat.
He turned around and glanced at those people who were still competing with Da Ying. Couldn't all their information be false?
Who is so courageous that he directly fooled so many intelligence agencies?
Of course, now was not the time to think about this. He immediately called his people over and asked them to prepare the car.
No matter what, he has to chase the goal of Dominic Toretto.
As for the rest, no one will listen to his orders anyway.
However, you must not just chase it.
The careful Hobbes left two people behind to prepare relevant paperwork and let others know what he was doing.
Only in this way can they be freed from responsibility in the end.
And if he really guesses it right, let's see how he slaps those people in the face.
This damn mission is so frustrating.
…
The area in south London was almost full of police and police cars.
Insiders of MI6 are still passing on the news that their buyers have arrived at the scene and the auction has begun.
Rachel Dalton and Philip Locke have arrived at the scene.
This is a multi-agency joint operation, and the specific operational command authority does not lie with MI6.
This is also the reason why MI6 sent Owen Xiao here.
Philip Locke looked at the time, and then said worriedly, "Owen Xiao is late."
Rachel Dalton had already put on the tactical vest with an expressionless expression. This time they needed to put it on themselves.
A dozen people gathered in an abandoned factory not far away, with a makeshift platform in front of them.
The level of simplicity is really quite sloppy.
There were people on guard outside, suspected to be armed with guns.
These people obviously belong to different organizations, and their clothing, attire, and race are obviously different, and they are clearly distinguishable.
OK, this must be it.
CTSFO has already deployed multiple snipers, and several commando teams are also ready, waiting for the order to rush in and arrest people.
It seemed like a simple task, but Rachel Dalton and Philip Locke felt something was wrong.
According to their experience, the guards here are too lax.
This doesn't look like a nuclear weapons auction, or even a mafia transaction site.
Rachel Dalton, who is already fully armed, is in the command vehicle on the periphery, discussing the action plan with the CTSFO commander on site.
A commando team carrying reconnaissance equipment has approached the transaction site.
The space of this temporary auction place is very large. It was used as an assembly line for automobile assembly a long time ago.
The personnel here are limited and there is no way to guard all positions.
Therefore, it is still very easy for the commandos to infiltrate.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! They used a pinhole probe to penetrate the damaged window and transmitted the scene footage back to the command vehicle.
Rachel Dalton and other commanders from several departments all stood in front of the screen and looked at the picture above.
People inside seemed to be bidding.
Rachel Dalton asked Jean to adjust the angle of the camera. Only the people from MI6 here knew what that thing looked like.
There is a huge suitcase on a table, which is now open.
There is a black metal device inside, but the picture is too blurry to see clearly.
"Is that it?"
The on-site commander looked at the picture and decided on the next action based on Rachel Dalton's judgment.
But the problem is that Rachel has never actually seen nightshade.
MI6 only has a rough idea of the size and weight of the thing, and it does look similar in the picture.
Rachel was about to nod, but was stopped by Philip Locke.
"The box does look similar in appearance, but without seeing the contents inside, we can't be sure whether it is nightshade or not."
Rachel looked at Philip Locke who spoke for her, and slowly understood what he meant.
If you are not completely sure at this time, you must not be full of words.
Of course the commander was dissatisfied with this answer, "Is this how Military Intelligence works?"
Philip Locke looked at the other party without giving an inch, and said, "That thing was a product of the Cold War. Do you think a few people have seen it until now?"
The commander frowned. It was undeniable that what the other party said made sense, but this was not the answer he wanted.
"Then what are you doing here?"
But no matter what, the decision-making power is now back in his hands.
