“We were called to escort the daughter of the Minister of Health, Ms Dlamini, to safety as a direct order from Peter Schmidt, the Multinational Regional General Manager for South Africa.”
In the Johannesburg city police station, a group of armed mercenaries walked into the police station aggressively. The bald mercenaries leading the team had fierce eyes. If it weren't for the obvious MNU blue shield logo on their badges and armbands, it would be difficult to tell what the police officers were like in the police station. Will the police be the first to pull out their weapons and point them at these people's heads?
"Um, this..."
The policeman on duty at the service desk looked through the paper document handed to him by the bald mercenary. After learning the other party's name from it, he glanced up at the blue shield badge on the mercenary's chest and asked: "Ku Colonel Perth, right?"
The policeman's tone was not friendly, but considering MNU's notorious reputation in South Africa, it is not difficult to understand why his attitude towards the mercenaries was very perfunctory from the beginning.
Seeing the policeman flipping the documents back and forth, but refusing to let anyone bring Juliana, Coopers touched his bare head and said impatiently: "Yes, officer. Also, I think I and the photo are The difference shouldn't be big enough to warrant spending so much time identifying the authenticity, right? The situation is urgent and I need you to bring her over immediately!"
Hearing this, the policeman put down the document. His face was full of confusion and he spread his hands helplessly, saying that the colonel might have arrived a step too late. A team of people had taken Juliana away half an hour ago with a warrant from the mayor of Johannesburg.
"What? How is that possible?!"
When Coopers heard the news, he was shocked and angry. He thought that MNU had never paid less and less to the local government of Johannesburg every year. Why did the other party want to go against them on this matter now?
Could it be that the obedience of those officials all along was just an act, and that they were secretly loyal to their country?
With his own doubts, Colonel Coopers immediately asked to see the surveillance video of the police station to find out who took away his target.
After countless eye rolls, he finally entered the monitoring room as he wished. But facing the snowflakes all over the screen, the colonel's bald head turned slightly red with anger, and his brows were almost furrowed.
Taking a look at the tense expressions of the police around him, Cooper guessed that the police did not intend to protect those unknown persons who came one step ahead of him, and even the mayor's warrant in the other party's hand was probably a forgery.
Combined with the ability of these people to manipulate the surveillance of the city police station, there are not many people worthy of suspicion.
Coopers knew that he was not the type to use his brains, so he shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He just reported the situation here, which made several MNU senior officials in the secret base who were waiting for good news look at each other. I don't know who to doubt who broke their wishful thinking.
...
In the base conference room, an MNU South Africa executive speculated: "Could it be the work of those hawkish officials? After all, there have been rumors that Dlamini is their shadow leader. Now this woman is in our hands Of course, they must protect the safety of her daughter."
Just when everyone was convinced, General Manager Schmidt, who was sitting at the head of the table, sneered and mercilessly denied the executives' statement.
"It can't be them. Have you forgotten those hawkish officials who died in Dlamini's house? That was an execution by beheading! This is obviously a warning, and you don't have any laboratory comparison results?" You can see that the wound at the break does not match the attack method of the biochemical beast."
Without waiting for others to chew on the information he gave, Schmidt stated his guess clearly and concisely.
"Gentlemen, there is a third force outside us and the South African government that has joined this game. They are well-trained, well-organized, and well-equipped. They are different from our previous enemies. Even if we look down on the South African government, we cannot underestimate it. them!"
After some analysis, the executives nodded in agreement, but they still had one question that remained unanswered.
What is the purpose of this unknown force?
As we all know, MNU and South African officials are in a state of overt cooperation and covert confrontation, and the root of the problem is how to deal with District 9 and the shrimp people in it.
MNU plans to relocate the Shrimp People to a new restricted area about two hundred kilometers away from Johannesburg so that they can continue to conduct various weapons and technology experiments. South African officials have always wanted to kick the ninth restricted area out of the country and let African countries share this huge mess.
The former will lead to MNU's economic colonization and control of South Africa to a further degree, and the government will completely become a puppet of multinational corporations. The latter means that after twenty years, the South African government has finally been able to eradicate this cancer that has been sucking nutrients from countless people. As for the country that took over District 9, it is natural that the MNU has to worry about it. They can't control it and they don't want to.
This faction corresponds to one kind of human attitude towards shrimp people, MNU is to use, and South Africa is to exterminate.
Countries and forces that want to get a piece of the pie in the field of alien technology have all followed MNU. Among the remaining forces, except for profit-seeking gangs, most are local official organizations. The representatives of these people are the hawkish officials in the South African government. .
They are determined shrimp exterminators and will do anything to get District 9 out of South Africa forever.
However, this unknown force that suddenly joined the chess game was obviously not on the same side as our own, otherwise they would not have targeted them in this way, and deliberately took away the target named by MNU before Colonel Cooper. But the headless corpses of several hawkish officials also silently demonstrated that the group behind this group was by no means an official organization, at least not an official organization in South Africa.
At this time, the executive who had made the wrong guess not long ago spoke again, but this time his statement was recognized by Schmidt.
"Could they be pro-Shrimps? This would also explain why their technology is so advanced, because there are Shrimps teaching them alien technology!"
Because the last time the Immortal Army and the Arasaka ninjas had a fight in the ninth district, the underworld leader Obersancho ordered people to guard the main roads leading to the battlefield, so that the Arasaka people had cleaned up the battlefield, and MNU's employees Bing was also blocked outside by a group of vicious gangsters with heavy machine guns.
Therefore, after that, the MNU investigators who received the benefits of the gang "believed" that there should be a conflict between the shrimp gang and the human gang in the ninth district, resulting in a small-scale fight.
At that time, MNU's top management was still busy in a war of words with the South African government over the issue of District 10, and did not continue to conduct in-depth investigations. As a result, they still know nothing about Arasaka's existence until now.
"It is not impossible. The board of directors has long guessed that the leadership of the shrimp people was not dead in the riots, but they have hidden it well for many years, which makes us think that they are all dead. If they are behind it , with the temptation of alien technology, it is expected that traitors will appear among humans."
General Manager Schmidt nodded and fell into thinking.
Now that it is known that a third force has entered the market, it is necessary for MNU to change its strategic direction in the near future. For example, taking advantage of the heavy losses suffered by the hawks within the South African government, the construction plan for the 10th District should be reconciled with the doves. After it was finalized, the two parties who then reached cooperation worked together to find out the mysterious third party.
Of course, considering that the purpose of the mysterious force is most likely to help the shrimp people return home, Schmidt plans to report the matter to MNU's European headquarters, so that the entire Western world can invest in the search to avoid the conspiracy of the human traitors. He really succeeds and brings the alien army back for revenge.
"What's going on with the mothership lately?"
Thinking of this, Schmidt looked at the executive responsible for the daily management and maintenance of the Shrimp Mothership in the conference room. After getting a negative answer from the other party, he pondered for a while and ordered: "Let everyone who is still inside the mothership All scientific researchers have been transferred to ground laboratories for research. They are the company’s best talents and must not make any mistakes.”
"In addition, the security forces around the mothership must also be strengthened. You can coordinate this with Colonel Cooper. The colonel will be given whatever resources he needs. We must prevent the shrimp people from leaving the earth at all costs!"
After finishing speaking, Schmidt, who felt he had nothing to say, announced the adjournment of the meeting. When all the executives left, he sat in his chair, feeling a little uneasy for no reason.
"Oh, it seems I haven't had enough rest recently, aha...huh..."
Yawning, Schmidt stood up and prepared to go to the interrogation room to see how the interrogation was going and whether the stubborn woman had spoken. Although he didn't have high hopes for it, especially since Coopers didn't get her daughter, Dlamini's resolve only grew stronger.
"That's all, let's just give it a try. After all, the European headquarters is very interested in her biochemical beast..."
With the idea of giving it a try, Schmidt's back disappeared at the end of the long corridor illuminated by lights outside the conference room, unaware that a bloody massacre was about to take place in the base.
First latest.
