The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

This is a flight that departs after 11 o'clock in the evening. It takes more than seven hours to fly to Paris. The arrival at Charles De Gaulle International Airport is about one o'clock in the middle of the night in France.

The flights with absolutely cheap fares are all very low discounts, but this time is bad enough that many people will find a place to make do with until dawn before leaving after arriving at the destination airport!

There is a price to save money, but not all passengers who need to travel between the two sides of the Atlantic are wealthy people or companies who pay for their tickets. No matter how hard it is, many passengers will always choose the cheap red-eye flights.

In fact, airline business is not easy to do. Such a red-eye flight has less than half of the ride rate, which is a meager profit. It does not make much money, but if you don’t do it, someone else will do it. At least you can make more money on the return journey, all for the market. Share.

But tonight the crew encountered a very strange situation. The flight attendants originally thought it would be easy. This kind of flight only needs to send pillows, blankets and drinks once, so there are fewer passengers and no worry.

Unexpectedly, it was almost full at once. You must know that this is not a domestic red-eye flight from the west coast of the United States to the east coast of the United States in the traditional sense. The sudden increase in passengers two or three hours before departure is rare.

The company will be happy. This is all money. If every red-eye flight is like this, American Airlines' financial statements will look a lot better. As for the flight attendants, they will have to be busy for a while.

When boarding the plane, the flight attendants kept their professional smiles, but their hearts gradually became drums: What kind of passengers are these!

unusual!

After boarding was completed, the flight attendant went to the cockpit deliberately and told the captain of her discovery.

"Captain, the hundreds of newly added passengers are all young men, not a single woman or child, and... these people don't talk much, but they should be together, just like an army."

The captain was looking at the counterweight table and the passenger list, and listening to the flight attendant's words, he said: "Tell everyone, don’t worry, I just received a call. At least 90% of the newly added passengers are urgently booked tickets inside the company. .

Don't ask too much, don't think too much, who knows what's above.

Finish the work early, and go to the top to sleep if you need to change shifts and rest. I really hate this time. It's still late in the night when I get to Paris! "

The last sentence is obviously a complaint.

No crew likes such a red-eye transoceanic route, but the later midnight route has its advantage, that is, the relative distance is relatively short. New York and Paris are about 5,500 kilometers, and the cost is low for airlines. This is because the crew members are too much. Pick and choose.

The straight-line distance from New York to Paris is 5,840 kilometers. Under normal circumstances, the actual flight distance of an airplane is between 5,500 and 6,500 kilometers. This is related to various factors such as air routes and high air currents.

The earth is turning, the routes are busy during the day, and the reason for the allocation of routes can make you fly thousands of kilometers more by burning oil!

As for the return journey, it will take longer. This is a story of chasing the earth and turning around the earth. Therefore, it may happen that the flight distance of the aircraft itself is shorter than the straight-line distance on the map to reach the destination.

The captain didn't want to know what passengers were on this trip. People arranged through the company would not be dangerous, at least they would not be dangerous to the company's own aircraft.

A bunch of men, fortunately, according to the baggage report to see that the number and weight of the luggage on this flight did not exceed the standard, plus the fuel was not filled up, there is no need to worry about the excessive proportion of male passengers causing the aircraft to be overweight.

Everything was normal. After the passenger plane took off and climbed, according to the New York Air Traffic Control Center's report, a private business jet was also using the same route to Paris at the 10th highway in front of their 767.

Don't worry about being too close and being disturbed by the wake of the aircraft ahead, because although the route is the same, the private business jet did not take off from JFK Airport, but from the Long Island private airport where the 767 fell the other day.

It was a Gulfstream, and the cruise altitude of this club was almost 6000 feet higher than that of the red-eye flight. The cruise altitudes that the two are used to are not at all on the same level.

However, the rich people who took the Gulfstream 4 seemed a bit special. The aircraft used the long-range cruise speed, which was fuel-efficient and not in a hurry. It was 20 kilometers slower than the cruise speed of the 767, and it would be within half an hour. The passenger plane below was flew to the front.

The private jet flew to Paris in the middle of the night, and it was not in a hurry. The captain and co-pilot of the airliner were a little confused.

Suddenly thought of...

Isn’t the private airport in Long Island owned by the company’s major shareholder? Is it related to the newly added passengers in the cabin?

The two pilots were not CIA, and I didn’t think about it any more. Flying with autopilot was very easy. After another four hours to prepare the pilots to come back and take over, these two can go to the upper concealed pilots to rest. District to lie down.

The 767 passenger plane, on these intercontinental flights, is equipped with crews and rest berths just above the heads of ordinary passengers.

...

Mr. Captain guessed it. All the 112 male passengers belonged to the company's major shareholder, Mr. Allen, but the final destination of this mission was not Paris for a large part of them.

Some people will transfer flights or train to Belgium, Germany, and Italy in Paris-within a few hours, the "Joint Force" has received preliminary and effective intelligence support.

This time, not only these 112 personnel from the original intelligence agency, special forces, special operations teams of the police department and other departments worked for the boss. In Nice, there were also hundreds of company subordinates who specialized in dirty work. Ready to execute the instructions of the task at any time.

Not only the company’s own personnel, but also the heads of three small but powerful mercenary organizations received a notice from the middleman-waiting for instructions, there is a dirty job to be done, and no other job is allowed within two weeks. Start paying the waiting commission.

This is a good thing ~www.readwn.com~ As for the mission destination, I only know that it is Southeast Europe, not to mention where.

As a matter of principle, the heads of the mercenaries generally refuse such waiting tasks with unclear destinations. Otherwise, if the employer wants you to go to Yugoslavia to die, who will eat it? !

Fortunately, the intermediary revealed a secret that is not allowed to be leaked, which is also a secret that these heads dared not disclose: the employer is a "united force" and the destination is not the place where Yugoslavia has been slain into a flesh mill.

That's it. The employer has a good reputation, gives generously, and will not let people die. As for who to kill, it doesn't matter at all. This is the craftsmanship of these groups of mercenaries.

The contractors in the technology did not chat much, each took a pillow and started to rest. Their appearance did not attract the special attention of ordinary passengers. Others did not know that this group of people bought tickets two or three hours in advance.

At the same time, in the Gulfstream 4 at 6000 feet above their heads, 6 Red Devils, two female former KGBs, plus Randy, Linman, and Paul, are basically full of this one. The boss sometimes uses it. Business jet.

Guan Boss and Andre are in India, and Pavel Koshevoi is in charge of this mission.
