A week later, Lin Rui returned to Aladdin¡¯s Island of the Djinn with the Shadow Broker team. Aladdin welcomes them in a wheelchair, wheeled over by his bodyguard Duncan.
"Welcome." Aladdin smiled slightly.
"Who are you, and what is this place?" Sophia looked at the old man strangely.
"Mr. Aladdin is our partner. For the time being, your entire team will stay here to work. Mr. Aladdin will provide you with everything you need. In fact, he also has a good technical team, including many experts." Lin Rui nodded.
"Aladdin?" Sophia narrowed her eyes and looked at Aladdin, and then seemed to remember something. Somewhat surprised, he said, "Are you the legendary arms dealer? The wanted criminal that Americans have been hunting for all year round?!"
"Obviously, my reputation is not very good. But I assure you, I am actually a very good person." Aladdin smiled slightly, "As for the Americans, my relationship with them is more complicated. There is no guarantee that they will not carry out various measures on me. A malicious slander.
Just like your Shadow Brokers team, aren¡¯t they also what Americans call a despicable criminal hacker group? I remember that was their official title for you. "
Sophia smiled, "It seems you really know us well."
"I know more than you think. I know you still have doubts about joining Trident Company, but I can dispel all these concerns." Aladdin smiled.
"For what, money? It can be seen that you can build such a big place, and money is not a problem for you." Sophia shrugged. "But we never like rich people, we just like to rip them off."
"I know that you are not ordinary people, and money is not very attractive to you, but I can do some things that even money can't do." Aladdin said slowly, "For example, I know that your parents have been together since you were young. Death, it was your uncle who raised you.
And he was imprisoned in Bagram Prison for stealing NATO military intelligence. The Afghan government has officially signed an agreement with NATO, under which NATO will transfer the management of the prison located at the Bagram military base to the Afghan government. "
Sophia¡¯s face changed slightly, ¡°What did you say?¡±
Aladdin smiled slightly, "Bagram base is located about 50 kilometers north of Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan. It was established after the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in the late 1970s.
After the Taliban was overthrown in 2001, the US military used the base as a temporary barracks. It was permanently expanded in 2007 and US and NATO troops were stationed there. To detain captured hostile militants, the US military established prisons within the base.
It is said that 650 militants are detained there. In November last year, the US military built a new prison in the base and named it Parwan Detention Facility. The two prisons have been strongly condemned by international human rights groups because the prisoners held there are neither charged with crimes nor able to mount a defense.
A big reason why the United States-led NATO decided to transfer the management of Bagram Prison to the Afghan government is to avoid condemnation from the international community.
¡°And I have the ability to get your uncle out. After all, I was in Afghanistan and had some connections. Of course, you're welcome. Just think of it as providing the little help I can. Because we also want you to help us. Aladdin smiled slightly.
Sophia looked at Aladdin. This man who looked old and sick made her, who had never known fear, feel a little bit of fear. Even though he was smiling and had a peaceful expression.
"I think my people will help you arrange accommodation, and after you have settled in, I will show you everything here. Including your working environment, if you just ask for any needs, we will satisfy them to the greatest extent." Aladdin smiled He smiled and said, "If you don't mind, I have to talk to Rick now."
Lin Rui nodded and followed Aladdin and bodyguard Duncan into Aladdin's study. Aladdin looked at Lin Rui, "I heard that you are looking for me in a hurry?"
"There's something I think you should know." Lin Rui looked at him and said. "We found a secret camp of the Secret Society in northern Colombia and found the Grand Duke of the Secret Society."
"Have you found him?" Aladdin was surprised.
"Yes, and I know who he is. It's Silver Wolf Michelle." Lin Rui looked at Aladdin's expression and frowned slightly, "You're not surprised?"
"It's not too surprising. Silver Wolf Michelle was already at the top of my list of suspects." Aladdin said calmly. "Did he admit it to you himself?"
"Yes. I also know one thing. The former Grand Duke of the secret society was Yinlang's teacher, but this man died more than ten years ago. Yinlang took over his identity. In other words, YinlangAs the Grand Duke of the Secret Society, Charles continued to control the entire Secret Society. Lin Rui replied.
Aladdin pondered for a moment, "This makes sense. In the early days, I was the strategist of the Secret Society and there was no obvious difference between me and the Grand Duke of the Secret Society. But more than ten years ago, the Grand Duke of the Secret Society suddenly used the bishop to attack me. Take action.
There was no warning in advance, and I had no precautions. Now that I think about it, it should be that the first Grand Duke of the Secret Society died and Silver Wolf Michelle took over the overall situation. He was afraid that he could not control the situation, so he attacked me.
And he succeeded, and the bishop and I both lost. He successfully took power and developed the secret society into the behemoth it is today.
¡°The private military company has developed rapidly in recent years and has become another cover for his identity. With this identity, he has access to high-level military officials in various countries, and even intelligence agencies and other confidential units. It is even more comfortable in Africa. "
"So the Grand Duke of the Secret Society never shows his true colors to others." Lin Rui whispered.
"I was wondering, why did he identify himself to you?" Aladdin looked at him and asked.
"He wants to bribe me to give up my confrontation with the secret society. Maybe he knows about our relationship and plans to use me to deal with you." Lin Rui whispered.
As soon as he finished speaking, bodyguard Duncan had already raised his pistol and pointed it at him.
"What does this mean?" Lin Rui frowned slightly.
"He tried to bribe you, and you saw his face and knew his identity. In this case, it is impossible for you to come back alive if you don't agree to his request.
And you came back alive. So the answer is obvious. "Duncan looked at Lin Rui calmly.
"Duncan, put down the gun." Aladdin whispered.
"Sir, this man cannot be kept. Based on what he said, we can no longer trust him. For the safety of sir, I must" Duncan shook his head and did not put down the weapon in his hand.
"Put down the gun, Duncan. I won't repeat it." Aladdin said calmly, "Mr. Rick is our partner. He is a friend, not an enemy."
