There were really no people on the streets of Baghdad under the sun, so the car was moving very fast.
Now we have to go directly to the green zone, but Gao Yi doesn't know what procedures are required to enter the green zone. Lin Xianghua has heard about it, but he doesn't know what to do specifically.
You should definitely ask Ali, who already has a green zone pass, about this kind of thing.
"Do we need any documents to enter the green zone?"
"It is definitely necessary. You have to apply and wait for the Americans to agree before you can enter."
“Is it difficult to apply?”
He was leaving in such a hurry that he didn't have time to prepare for many things. Anyway, Gao Yi was used to solving problems as they came, so he didn't think there was anything wrong.
Ali thought for a while and said: "It's easy for Americans to apply. It's a little difficult for people from other countries to apply. But I know some people who can easily apply as long as they pay some money."
Gao Yi and the others came to Baghdad to do business. They would leave immediately after completing the mission. It was hard to say how many days they could stay. If things went well, they could finish the job in three or two days at most.
So it really doesn’t matter whether you can enter this green zone or not.
Gao Yi looked back at Luca and said, "Are you going?"
"Go and have a look."
Gao Yi said to Ali: "Then go directly to the Green Zone and see where the pass is issued."
Didn't you say that it is easy to apply for American citizenship? Anyway, Gao Yi now has a passport, so it should be easy to apply for it.
Ali didn't say anything. He drove directly to a street that looked normal. There were no gates, but there were roadblocks and barbed wire, and there was a checkpoint next to it.
Ali stopped the car, and then he said to Gao Yi: "Vehicles need to be inspected, and you also need to be inspected if you want to go in, but this is just a security inspection, and you have to go in front to apply for a pass. I go in and out of the Green Zone every day and I am very familiar with them.
, take your documents with you, and leave other things in the car, so that you can pass the inspection faster, and the most important thing is that they will not take the opportunity to detain your things."
This makes sense. Gao Yi had a lot of cash in his bag. If a group of soldiers checked it, he might have to find something to extort.
But this bag was too important, so Gao Yi thought it was better not to put it in the car.
Among the three of them, Lin Xianghua brought a large backpack and put it in the trunk. Gao Yi also brought a small backpack. Now that he wants to check it, he should check it.
Lin Xianghua didn't put anything too special in his backpack, just clothes suitable for the climate in Baghdad and some combat equipment other than weapons, such as walkie-talkies and so on.
Seeing that the soldiers at the checkpoint are all Iraqis, but not American soldiers, I guess this is the first post, so if you want to apply for a certificate, you have to keep going.
Lin Xianghua said: "Then I won't take the bag."
Gao Yi, who was used to finding connections through the back door, had no doubt that Ali said he was familiar with the people at the checkpoint. He got out of the car and said to Ali: "Wait for us over there."
Luka and Lin Xianghua also got out of the car. Ali drove the car slowly through the S-shaped passage between the roadblocks, and then slowly, slowly, while driving forward, he suddenly accelerated and drove straight forward without a trace.
.
The three people looked at each other, and then they all looked at the inspection post.
There was no one outside. A few Iraqi soldiers under the awning were holding guns, half-smiling but not smiling, looking at Gao Yi and the others as if they were fools.
Gao Yi trembled and whispered: "It's broken!"
Luka held his head in his hands and said in shock: "Oh no, we were fooled..."
Lin Xianghua's mouth opened wide. After hearing what Gao Yi and Luka said, he said with a stupid look on his face: "Is this okay?"
The three people walked towards the awning together, and a soldier pointed his gun directly at them.
Gao Yi said in English: "Hello..."
Luca said in Arabic: "Hello, are we... being deceived?"
An officer nodded silently, and then the remaining soldiers began to laugh happily.
A killer, a mercenary, and a middleman were deceived by a black car driver in Baghdad.
Gao Yi looked down at his bag and sighed softly.
Fortunately, I didn't leave my bag in the car.
Gao Yi felt fine, but Luka felt an unprecedented sense of shame.
It is a shame and humiliation that a middleman, a broker, was defrauded of his luggage by a taxi driver.
It’s such a shame, everyone is so embarrassed, it’s too shameless to live, it’s too shameless to be around.
Luka took a step forward and said in a sad and angry tone to the soldiers: "You know who he is, right?"
There were a total of seven or eight people under the awning. All the soldiers were equipped with full American equipment, and on hot days they had to wear camouflage uniforms, body armor and helmets.
Only the leading officer was wearing a camouflage uniform, without a helmet or hat. In comparison, he felt much more relaxed.
The officer waved his hand to Luca, meaning to leave quickly and stop talking nonsense.
Even if they are not in the same group, they must know each other, because the driver Ali did this very smoothly. It is definitely not the first time. It is very likely that he will come back to share the money after he left.
Only Lin Xianghua lost his bag. He had no money in it, but it was hard to buy his lost things in Baghdad.
Luca was furious, but he had reason.
What can be done? It is definitely impossible to get angry at these soldiers. Their guns are raised.
Gao Yi took a breath and said: "Let's go, stop talking, as long as the important things are not lost."
Don't talk nonsense to them. If you have this time, why not hurry up and find a cool place to settle down. As for the lost bag, look for it later.
The muscles on Luka's face began to beat uncontrollably. Gao Yi could only hold Luka back and go to a shady place first, as he would be dried out if he stood in the sun.
Standing under the eaves of the roadside, the three of them were silent. They wanted to take a taxi, but no taxi came on the street for a long time.
At this moment, Gao Yi's phone rang.
After answering the phone, I heard Martin say happily: "I have contacted my former colleague. He is willing to help. When you meet him, you will give him ten thousand dollars first. He will help as much as possible. If you think he can
I’ll help you, and I’ll see how much more money you give me.”
Gao Yi coughed lightly and said, "Okay, give me his phone number."
Martin gave a number, and Gao Yi silently dialed the number given by Martin. Soon, the call was connected, and a person whispered: "Hello."
Gao Yi said somewhat unnaturally: "Hello, I am Martin's friend."
"Know where it is and when it will arrive."
Not very enthusiastic or very welcoming, Gao Yi hesitated for a moment and said: "We don't know where we are now, and we are trying to find a way to get to the Green Zone. Well... can you pick us up?"
After a moment of silence, the phone suddenly said: "You are not being cheated, are you? No?"
