Chapter 1424 The thorns of growth
In fact, these mercenaries have not been confiscated their own mobile phones. Many of them have called their homes or others to play with their mobile phones and surf the Internet.
Barker didn't.
Since the radar monitoring station was destroyed on the south side of Busanga Island, he knew that the monitoring activities between countries were so crazy that almost all voice calls or digital information exchange would be monitored. The difference was whether a certain ID number would be paid special attention. If some countries instigated these actions in Mahaddad behind the scenes, the information of this small city of tens of thousands of people would be monitored to the point where a needle would not be missed, so he didn't even dare to buy an ordinary phone to report safety to his home.
What's more, don't he have a phone number? How strange it is to buy another one.
But I bought a regular cheap tablet touch phone for Gulisa in the past two or three days. It can play games and connect to the Internet, because there is free wifi everywhere in this tourist country's capital, so Gulisa occasionally takes it out to make fun of it. However, it is obvious that this girl from the Kurdish mountainous area is not keen on this thing. According to her, she also has a mobile phone when teaching, but she can't contact her homes as a nomadic people. She just contacts friends and colleagues in the city. The same is true now. She has no phone number to call, and the main reason is that what she sees is fresh at every moment, so she has no time to play with her mobile phone.
But what is more interesting is that she applied for some social software accounts in the Kurdish region. At that time, she hoped to get in touch with the outside world more. Speaking of this, she carefully explained to Buck that it was definitely not a water-like poplar flower.
Barker wouldn't care about this: "Now you take the initiative to add some local people around you and see what they are saying."
It was already midnight when he returned to the youth hostel, and Buck naturally slept without distraction. Gulisa was sitting next to him, focusing on the screen of her mobile phone. In the shadow of the narrow single bed against the wall, only a faint light was reflected on her face.
That night, the mercenaries were still in and out of the terrace and dormitory of the youth hostel, drinking, smoking and chatting. For them, this was just a day of not going well at work. The other party responded unexpectedly quickly and suppressed the situation steadily and accurately. Everyone just finished work early and came back tomorrow.
But when the bright sunshine of the Indian Ocean spread to the city again, Gulisa was a little shocked.
The girl who hadn't fallen asleep all night had dark circles, but her tiredness disappeared. As soon as she came to the street, there were traces of being beaten, smashed, looted and burned everywhere. There were sandbags and isolation piles placed on the main streets and alleys, and military and police were on duty to check their passports everywhere!
Gulisa said to Buck with difficulty: "Why does this... feel similar to Iraq?"
For her, this was too unbelievable. The city gave her a very beautiful feeling in the past few days. The colors were bright and there seemed to be no haze. Everyone was smiling and kind. There was no need to worry about bombs and guns in the streets and alleys. Walking on the road to see the bustling market and listening to the birds on the treetops is almost a realistic version of heaven. Why did it become almost the same as Iraq, which was a disaster overnight?
Buck kept looking down at her phone: "Heaven and Hell are in a moment, and it is a price to be encouraged to overthrow the order. The smaller the area, the smaller the price. There is no big loss when it is often stir-fried, but the big country cannot withstand such torture. Iraq was once the strongest country in the Middle East. Once the order is disrupted, it will be difficult to pick it up again."
Yes, this city is too small, surrounded by the sea, no matter how much trouble it is, it is limited to this island. The surrounding islands, hotels and islands are basically controlled by investors and will not be affected. Even the airport has suspended contact with the capital's main island, and it has become an isolated island. Now it seems that the walls are full of slogans of resistance, glass windows are smashed, and cars are burned. It is easy to clean up these things, just like the people of this city are getting angry and turning back. It is still possible to do whatever they should do. Restoring order will only take one or two days. It would be too difficult for those big countries.
On the mobile phone in Buck, Gu Lisa collected various propaganda jokes, mocking the president, criticizing corruption, hating outsiders, and clamoring to overthrow the current government. This is just a message sent by Gu Lisa as a local girl who added some active ids and got it. You can imagine how much information the locals convey to each other. As several social software mainly released by Americans, they will not filter this information at all. It seems that it makes sense that China blocks these software.
"Please stop! Show your passport!" The military and police in two or three uniforms reached out to stop Buck and others. Behind the batons and fully armed guns, there was even a light explosion-proof vehicle posing in the corner of the street with the same eye-catching expression.
Buck and Gulisa both took out their Turkish passports and temporarily handled them at that military base. They were very real. The other party saw that they were a couple who showed their travel identity. They were very good-looking and gave it a salute!
Then, although the white British companions who had been keeping a distance of three or five meters from them were holding their South African passports, they were immediately left and shouted to check!
Buck and Gulisa's obvious Asian Middle Eastern appearance keeps them from the blacklist!
This is almost the first time Buck and Gulisa have come to this country and have gained freedom without surveillance!
He pretended to look at it and said that he had nothing to do with the unlucky British man. Buck led Gulisa and disappeared on the street corner soon. He casually found a restaurant that was still open. He turned to the dining table on the terrace on the second floor, and asked Gulisa to order food. Buck was finally able to take out the phone and turn on the phone to report to Lao Bai!
This phone also needs to have better results in unobstructed areas that can accept satellite signals, so Buck cannot make calls in the bathroom.
Lao Bai was very surprised: "Okay! By chance! This matter has been progressing very well so far! You have made great contributions!"
Seeing Gulisa still swaying among several colorful dishes, Buck expressed her question: "Why didn't you just catch us, and wouldn't you stop the incident?"
Lao Bai smiled and explained: "Diplomatic matters are not that simple. First, these people have not done anything so far, and there is no charge. Second, we cannot completely affect a sovereign state. Moreover, this is not to say too much to our obedient subordinates. He also thinks that it would be counterproductive to monitor them closely. We can only observe and assist from the side and show as little Chinese elements as possible. China has never been aggressive, right?" He paused and added: "And some things are not to expose us, but to let the other party's intentions after the incident and to alert other countries that this is how the lost helpers come from."
Buck described in detail the details he observed, including the young woman who had been squatting in the hotel. Old Bai was skillful: "That should be a civil service, including the inciting words you saw, maybe she was being transferred, and it might also be on-site command, but generally such a young person cannot be an action command..." Lao Bai reminded: "From the current situation and their scale, it is inevitable. There may be a later move. You must pay attention to your own safety, hide your identity, and evacuate quickly when necessary. Our company and office can serve as your evacuation point... With your subordinates there, this time we immediately let the companies and offices protect the surrounding expatriates and tourists as soon as possible. Your personnel have already played a role, it's very good!"
This country is too small to even embassies of various countries, so the Chinese embassies are held by the ambassador in other countries. If such a thing happens, it can only be achieved by local Chinese institutions in fulfilling their protection duties, which is unprecedented.
The strength and confidence of a country always need to grow bit by bit.
