In the early morning by the Seine River in Paris, some young people were jogging, and a traveler was taking photos of the scenery along the way with a camera.
A middle-aged man in a coat sat on a chair, holding nothing, as if waiting for someone.
The phone rings.
"You've gone too far." The middle-aged man took out his mobile phone, answered the call, and said this.
"They captured my daughter, Kern." Brian's voice came over the phone, "I'm willing to do anything for this."
"Including 25 lives, including two policemen?" Kern Claude asked.
"Can a police officer who goes to a place like that still be considered a police officer?" Brian asked, "Both you and I know what the truth is."
"...I don't want to have these useless arguments with you." Kern took out a ticket from his arms, "The fastest plane to the United States, first class, I used my face as deputy director to ask for it on your behalf.
Specialists from the Internal Security Service will transport you safely to the United States."
"What about my daughter?" Brian asked.
"I will find a way for you." Kern said, "But the prerequisite is that you must leave here now."
"We are all retired, Kern Claude, but ask yourselves, if you were me, would you believe the words coming out of your mouth?" Brian asked.
"You have no choice," Kern said.
"No, a father in anger can do anything," Brian from a distance looked at Kern with a telescope and said softly, "Tell me, you are not involved in this matter.
.”
"...I won't talk to you about such irrelevant things." Kern looked cold. The report coming from the headset, the location located through the mobile phone signal was checked by a dedicated person, and it was found that it was just a walkie-talkie and mobile phone placed together.
.
"It seems that you admitted it. That's right. How could the dignified deputy director of the Internal Security Bureau not be aware of the activities of these human trafficking gangs?" Brian sneered.
Kern was silent for a while: "Where are you?"
"I'm looking at you, Kern Claude. Originally, I was worried because of our friendship. Now it seems that it's time for me to let go." Brian said.
"Calm down!" Kern frowned. Before, the relationship was just the destruction caused by Brian hiding it?
"Don't let the situation escalate further!"
"Have you noticed that we are the same kind of people? Kern," Brian's voice came slowly from the phone, "we both value our families."
It was like a bolt of lightning flashed across my mind.
"You can't do this!" Kern turned ferocious for a moment, "That's my family, they have nothing to do with it!"
"Then should my family and my daughter give their lives in this matter?!" Brian shouted in a low voice.
"You are unkind and I am unjust! I regard you as my friend, but you hid the most critical information from me from the beginning, and even tipped off the information to them, those human traffickers!"
There was a long silence.
"I had no choice," Kern said. "Since you're looking at me, you must know that."
"No, there are always choices, it's just that you always made the wrong ones before." Brian said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the tourist who had been walking around with a camera taking pictures of the scenery moved.
He put down the camera and smiled at the young people running towards him.
The young man running also smiled kindly. For some reason, the man's face looked handsome at first glance, but after a closer look, he felt "unremarkable". He felt that he couldn't remember any features at all.
The public face among public faces.
This weird feeling didn't last long.
Because the tourist suddenly jumped up and punched him in the face. When his vision went dark, he felt like the world was spinning and he fell to the ground. In his last consciousness, he vaguely remembered hearing several roars and screams...
Kern witnessed the entire process.
That seemingly harmless and ordinary tourist brought down all the agents who were escorting him in just three seconds without injuring his life!
Only absolute crushing can reach this state.
The moment he reacted and was about to take out his pistol, a cold object pressed against his forehead...
"Be careful of fire." Anxi gave a kind reminder.
He didn't put on any disguise, he just put on the word "ordinary" and successfully "blinded everyone" in front of the male protagonist's face.
It can be seen that sometimes a low-level entry can play an unimaginable role...
"Who are you?" Kern wisely lowered his gun and raised his hand.
"Just a person who wants to have some fun." Anxi took off the headset from Kern's ear, took away the mobile phone in his hand, took away the pistol, and threw them into the river together. Then he took out a new mobile phone to make a call and handed it to him.
To Kern.
"Now you have a choice." Brian said.
"what do you want?"
Kern tried hard to stay calm, knowing that he no longer had any negotiating capital at this time.
"Don't worry, I'm much more moral than you. I just need to get the information I want." Brian said.
"But if I don't get what I want, or get it incorrectly...
I believe you should know the consequences of completely pissing off a Kingsman agent, even though I'm retired.
Your family will never survive before I die, unless they can hide in a safe house forever!"
"What do you want to know?" Kern swallowed hard. He knew very well what Brian was capable of, and he also understood that it was not impossible for him to say such cruel words.
Not to mention, Brian now has such a terrifying assistant!
"Patrice St. Calgary." Brian said, "His details, the person behind it, and the auction location."
"This is impossible……"
"Then prepare to collect the bodies of your wife and children." Bryan interrupted Kern directly, his tone flat.
"Wait, wait!" Kern gritted his teeth and squeezed out a voice from between his teeth, "I can't tell you directly the person behind him, otherwise the end I will face will be death...
All I can tell you is the location and Patrice’s details!”
"It seems that you don't pay enough attention to your wife and children." Brian said.
"Please!" Kern was very angry, but had no choice, "What I said is true... I have no choice! I also want to raise my children and family! And, I really can help you...
…isn’t it?”
"Yeah, help me and give them a little 'warning' at the same time. If they weren't stupid enough, I would just turn into a corpse there." Brian sneered, and then became angry.
.
"Are you doing it for your family, for your children? Isn't the salary of a deputy director of the Internal Security Bureau not enough? Don't be ridiculous, you are just doing it for your position! Then you can watch so many innocent people being killed!"
Kern was speechless.
He wanted to refute, but he didn't dare to refute.
"You should be lucky that you really helped me a little bit, even if it was just a trivial little bit, and it was almost 'offset' by the information you revealed.
I can't do anything to a child for no reason...but remember, the price, what you do will eventually require you to pay the price, all of you!"

Brian said coldly: "Tell me the address and detailed information. You'd better make sure I don't escape. Also, don't expect to kill me there, because I am more than just one person."
"I need to know first that they are safe," Kern said.
"You have no power to negotiate," Brian refused directly, "I have more credibility than you."
"..." Kern was silent for a while, then gave out the information and address, "They will hold a banquet at this place... There will be a private space at the banquet where the auction will be held."
"Asshole." After scolding Brian, he hung up the phone.
"I think you should be able to make the right choice, Mr. Claude, right?" Anxi took back the phone and asked with a smile.
"I just didn't expect Brian to have such a powerful helper like you."
Winner and loser, Kern had no idea of resistance at this time.
"Oh, believe me, there are many things you didn't expect." Anxi smiled.
He didn't kill Kern and left directly.
Because he knew that once the subsequent events came out, Kern's fate would only be worse than death now.
