Chapter 2
New acquaintance
At the 70th kilometer, the radio went quiet, as there was mostly desert around, and
The nearest village was very far away. But John was a smart guy, he wasn't going to
die from the heat in the desert in the heat and at the same time lose your motorcycle. He took a spare
a can of gas, which he always had, water and some food, mostly snacks and nuts. And there is literally a kilometer left to the destination. He arrived and the light on his phone turned green.
-Ugh, he came, what hell, and also in a jacket. - He drank water, ate nuts, Snickers and
poured gasoline into the motorcycle.
- It is necessary to put him in the shade, otherwise the handsome man will mate. And hiding your motorcycle securely
under the huge thickets of cacti, he began to look for a bunker, a laboratory ...
- Would you like to know what it is and where it is? - John was at a dead end, he walked, wandered for a long time,
knocked on the phone, but he did not see anything.
Well, it looks like I was wrong. - John was about to call Lee, but then he noticed
a huge hole in the canyon and went there.
- How strange, such a big canyon, but what is it. John rubbed his eyes, is it really
he began to look for some kind of lever and mechanically kicked the first
stone.
-Ai.-The stone turned out to be hard, no, it's not a stone. John suddenly understood something and became
blow the dust off the stone, it was an old abandoned ventilation shaft, but where
leads.
- Bingo, John rubbed his leg, took a knife and carefully unscrewed the bolts from the ventilation, although
after the first unscrewed bolt, the ventilation fell out by itself.
- Well hello secret mine, I knew it, ugh it was not easy.
The shaft was quite large and fortunately it was not difficult for John to climb through,
He turned on the flashlight and climbed up the dusty, sandy shaft. John crawled and crawled and
suddenly, no, this is not a dream, he saw the cleaned ventilation passages, clean and without sand.
Yeah, that's it, he took the walkie-talkie, since the connection in the desert did not catch and contacted Lee.
- Whether I'm an eagle, answer as you hear.
There was a hiss from the radio and a voice answered, "Hi, John can hear you perfectly,
the data turned out to be correct."
-Yeah, listen now I'll try to connect to the computer network if it is here,
you can hack them and help me.
- It seems it's time to get your hands dirty, okay when you connect, call, end of connection.
John knew to tread carefully if you were spotted, that's it.
and no one will even know that you were here, the place is classified, and people rarely come here. Johnny climbed through the ventilation and ...
"Oops, that's exactly what I need." John was right above the surveillance room, good thing
There are no cameras in the ventilation, otherwise he would already be a corpse.
A fat guard in the uniform of an officer was sitting in an armchair, it only remained to distract him
and get into the room.
Hmm, John thought and came up with. There was a door next to the room, another ventilation went out there, John knew what to do.
He took a knife, opened the ventilation, no luck in the corridor, and the cameras in the dark corridor
nothing to put. So John took a knife and loudly that there are forces, creaked on the glass.
The guard was alarmed and said: Hey who, there. The boss is you.
John did not wait for an invitation to become, he quickly dived into the ventilation and closed the door.
The guard opened the door, took the lantern and went to the end of the corridor, closing the door behind him.
-It worked- John locked the door from the inside and started looking for a USB port for the computer, and here it is. He radioed Lee.
-Whether reception, there is a contact.
- Hey Joe, glad to hear, hold on a second. Yes, it won't be easy.
- How much time do you need?
- Five minutes, here is a five-digit code.
Footsteps were already heard in the corridor, it was bad.
- Lee, it's not five minutes.
-Listen, not everything is so simple, take your time.
-So good, it'll be about a minute before the guard comes back and plus two more,
until he realizes that the handle is locked.
- Three minutes, okay, don't distract me.
John was sweating and it wasn't from his jacket, the guard was slowly approaching.
-Damn, it's bad business, we must urgently bring down. -John thought.
And now the guard has already pulled the handle, the rattle of the handle was heard.
- Damn .... - the guard was seriously angry. Stupid door, jammed again.
John exhaled a little, but he knew he didn't have much time.
-Lee, I'll be all in the water now, are you coming soon?
-Good news four digits are ready, there is only one left.
- Lord Leah, I'm serious, I'll be finished now. - John was ready to kill or
put the guard down, whatever, so long as he doesn't get caught. And now the handle has almost succumbed,
John was preparing to strike and was reaching for his pistol, but then a miracle happened.
- Done, get out of here.
In time, as soon as John climbed back into the ventilation, the door opened with a roar and the guard tumbled right into the place where John had just been. It's good that he managed to take out the flash drive, otherwise he would have been immediately sued.
- And who only comes to mind to make doors that are locked not from the outside, but from the inside. - The guard again sat down to work and clattered the keyboard, checking the cameras.
- You are my debtor, you know how it was not easy, and by the way, I erased the recordings from the cameras,
in this office so that no one will find you.
-Lee, I'm sorry, I forgot that there are cameras there, thank you, you saved me. Free from me
repairs during the year.
- Come on, I'm joking, we're friends, by the way, I've never seen such a huge network.
So let's see, ooh...
Interesting, listen, I'm sending you the coordinates through their network to you where the archive is located.
Good luck.
John looked at the phone, and the route really came. So right, left, forward,
down and …
John wiped his sweat and looked up. It's the same, next to the main headquarters to be stunned.
John followed the route and dialed Lee.
- Lee, I'm here to check the sector.
- I understand, so it seems to be clean. Now I'll open the ventilation, it has an auto-lock.
Click, ventilation opened, but John was not ready for this, he was lucky
he plopped right down on the couch, got up he swore and dialed Lee again.
-Lee, well, I could have warned you, I'm not a cat.
-Oops, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, okay, the main computer is in front of you, go ahead,
And I'll try to connect to it.
John went forward, he was struck by the room. It was large, but there was little light in it, instruments and cabinets with some kind of data were scattered everywhere. He wanted to see
but then Lee got in touch.
- I connected, but there is one snag.
- Well, speak up.
- It looks like when I hacked into the computer, the security protocol worked.
-AND…
"Of course I was able to restrain him, but you only have ten minutes.
- Are you kidding?
- No, I'm absolutely serious, in ten minutes every person in this complex
will know that you are here.
- Okay, then I won't waste a minute, although I have left ...
- Seven minutes. Quickly insert a flash drive and download everything you can.
- I already, the main thing is to follow the entrances and exits.
- Good.
John, inserted a flash drive, no, not just that, another download.
-Download completed at 40% timeout five minutes.
- That's not enough, I'll only have two minutes.
- John, is it John, answer.
- I'm on the line, something happened.
"Yeah, a lot of military men are coming here, what the hell…"
- Whether, whether...
- I'm here, someone hacked my computer. John get the hell out of there
data, take what you have and go. You hear Wali. Crap…
- Lee, Lee.
-Damn interference, looks like we've been discovered. And then John's words came true.
- Anxiety, anxiety, strangers in the complex, everyone is fully prepared,
all fully prepared.
-Damn it, John pulled out the disk just in time. The door gave way and they tumbled in
dozen soldiers.
John managed to slip into another vent, he was almost noticed.
Good thing Lee opened all the vents and not just one.
- Damn, I'm in ambush. - John, hoping to escape, crawled back and noticed a strange room.
- It's, yeah, here it is, suddenly the walkie-talkie buzzed and different voices came from it.
-Hey first, I'm second, did you find an unexpected guest?
-Second first, no way. What about your third?
-It's worth checking the ventilation, run the cooling system, let it freeze
we'll take him here, he's not going anywhere.
John swallowed, but as he noticed, he slipped into the first ventilation in the way.
The jump was successful, he found himself ...
-It's a utility room, phew could be worse. Hm, let's see. The door gave way and he quietly
went out into the corridor. There seemed to be no soldier, John realized that now the way back through the ventilation is closed, because becoming an ice is not an option. John quietly and carefully
looked around, hoping to find some kind of door. And lo and behold, the door was found, however
he did not know what the door was. But there was no choice, the soldiers were already roaming along the corridor.
-That's the same ... Oh, okay, with God. He opened the door, the key card from this room is fortunately
was in the database that Lee hacked into.
The door opened and it turned out that it was another corridor with three doors.
-Yeah, and what is mine, damn it. - There was no time to think, John wanted to choose already
the door but it was too late, an explosion was heard, fortunately John hid behind a strangely shaped statue, she withstood the blow.
The door opened and on the threshold stood a man in a business suit, surrounded by soldiers.
John knew this scoundrel well, there was no doubt everything, as his father said then,
short-haired brunette, with a mustache and a scar on his cheek. I had to do something
and fast.
- Well, of course, John even forgot about the soldiers. - He also has a smoke grenade, just enough to distract them. He put one hand on his back and held a pistol in the other.
- I would not advise you to do this young man, it is better for you to drop your weapon.
"Yeah, found a fool." John thought.
Two options. First you raise your hands and go out, and I will discuss with you
your terms or you will die here like a fool.
John smiled and chuckled softly and peered forward softly.
- Okay, I give up - he came out from behind the shelter. You won.
-Drop your weapon, count to three.- the brunette gave a command with his hand and started the countdown.
-One, two...
John raised his hand forward, no one was ready for such a turn as he expected.
-Three, fools. - and then bang everyone lay down, smoke poured from a grenade.
- Idiots, it's just smoke, behind him... Behind him.
Shots were heard, but John managed to open the first door and darted through it.
He was right, he ended up in the basement. John closed the door tightly and made her
cabinets and what was in the basement. But what is this above the place where the closet stood?
hole and John was ready to swear that someone was moving there. He put his finger on the trigger
and said:
- Who is here, well, answer me, otherwise I will shoot. - but John did not have time to raise the gun, as
the silhouette moved towards him and now at his temple there was already the barrel of a pistol of dessert needles.
- Without unnecessary movements, otherwise I'll take out your head, you understood. - in front of him,
More precisely, it was a girl, his age. With a dark complexion, in a dark leather jacket with earrings in the form of rings, a red bandana and long red hair.
- I ... I'm madam, it's good they sent another hound to finish me off. Know the same
I will never work for ColZirex. The eagle will live forever...
- And the falcon will be faithful to him ... - the girl loosened her grip.
-Know the same I will live forever ...
"Even if they find me." The girl helped John up.
"Well, it looks like you're Alpha." John sat down on the floor and rubbed his temple.
- And you are an eagle, we will postpone the acquaintance for later, and now we urgently need to get out.
Behind me. - the girl opened the hatch in the basement as soon as John did not notice him.
