Battlefield Contractor
Chapter 2037: confusing
In Mr. K's office, he was a little upset. ???? Take out a bottle of medicine in the drawer, then poured out a few pills and swallowed it. As a black man, he has put in a lot of effort in this position, and he has many colleagues. Of course, the pressure is much greater than other people. Even many times, he must rely on drugs to think completely calmly, especially in the case of chronic insomnia.
The US military base was attacked twice, and he was not without suspicion. That was the elite squad of the Black Island Military Company, but he hadn't easily judged it yet. Many years of professional agent career made him understand that any preconceived ideas must be absolutely avoided. To see the truth of the matter, only through careful investigation and reasonable analysis.
The office door was knocked, and Mr. K frowned slightly. "Come in."
Entering is his assistant, a very capable middle-aged man, who has been working with Mr. K for many years.
"How is your investigation?" Mr. K asked.
"Recently there are many private military companies in Russia. This may be related to their gradual liberalization of control and allowing private military companies to operate. People from at least six companies have recently reported to go to Russia. Of course, it is not ruled out that there is no such thing. Through normal channels, or people who use false identities." The assistant said carefully.
"Oh? How about the Black Island Company I asked you to check?" Mr. K frowned.
"Yes, a few of them are currently in Russia, and our people initially checked it out. They arrived more than half a month ago. For example, they were in some business negotiations with Russia, and they never left midway." the assistant replied Said, "This is their list."
"They were in Russia in the days when the German base was involved?" Mr. K looked at the list and said.
"Yes." the assistant replied, "at least according to our current investigation, they have no problems."
Mr. K looked at the list suspiciously, "That is to say, it is not completely certain yet?"
"Yes, but something seems to have happened to them. They encountered an attack and someone was injured and hospitalized. Afterwards, they seemed to be cautious and did not notice any changes. But in addition, there is another thing worth noting. "The assistant whispered.
"It's also about them?" Mr. K pondered.
The assistant shook his head, "Not them, but the boss of the Rochester Military Resources Corporation."
"Hughes?" Mr. K frowned. "What happened to him?"
"He also arrived in Russia, and not through normal channels." The assistant whispered, "We can't find out when he arrived from any aspect, but it can be confirmed that he had contact with officials of the Russian intelligence service."
"In other words, Hughes went to Russia secretly and had meetings with officials of the Russian intelligence agency." Mr. K thought.
"Yes. I also think this matter is a bit weird. I asked people to check it. Our people traced it to Hughes’ private secret account, and recently there was a lot of transfer information. There was a large amount of Russian ruble income, Then it was converted into U.S. dollars and was diverted through multiple channels," the assistant replied.
"Is the amount large?" Mr. K pondered.
"It's quite large, so they use the method of splitting large amounts of funds and transferring funds through multiple shell companies. It is estimated that they are afraid of being tracked down." The assistant answered carefully.
"Where is the source of this money?" Mr. K frowned.
"It seems to come from a Russian private organization. It is completely legal and has not seen any problems." The assistant whispered.
Mr. K stood up, walked a few steps back and forth, and said with a sneer, "This is really dripping, like Hughes's style. Go and check the transfer time of the money. See what's happening?"
"It has been checked, twice. One time was more than half a month before our base was attacked, and the other time was the fourth day after our base was attacked." The assistant whispered. "The difference is less than a month. It's like the advance payment in advance and the final payment after the event is completed."
Mr. K walked back and forth, "This is a bit interesting. After our base was attacked, Hughes suddenly received a large amount of funds, and it was not a formal procedure, but a private secret account. If this is a reward for a mission , Then it should be a dirty job."
"Mister is suspicious..." The assistant was slightly taken aback.
"I have no doubt, I just make a judgment based on facts." Mr. K waved his hand.
"However, this Hughes has a special status. He is the boss of the Rochester Military Resources Corporation. He has a close relationship with the upper-level military and has cooperated with the military in many aspects. In the Middle East and North Africa, the Rochester Military Resource companies are also the main partners of the US military. It includes military support, such as military intelligence collection, armed preservation, and logistical or non-combat operations, such as private bodyguards, military consultants, etc. Hughes himself also has a certain influence in the military. "The assistant frowned.
"I know he is a man with all sides. Not only he has personal relationships with many high-level military officials, but he is also a golf player with the former president. But this is not a reason for us not to investigate him. As long as there is suspicion, we have to Check." Mr. K sneered. "As for how to deal with it after finding out, just let those high-level **** get a headache."
"Yes, sir. I will send someone to investigate immediately." The assistant nodded.
"Come back!" Mr. K said slowly, "This matter should be carried out as secretly as possible. I don't want to disturb them until I get conclusive evidence."
"Understand." The assistant nodded and turned away.
Mr. K sat down, looked at the list in his hand, and began to be a little confused: Rick Lane... that Asian mercenary? I remember that he was the captain of the elite team in Black Island. If it were him, it might be a questionable target. And after the accident at the secret base in Borneo last time, he also appeared nearby. So could he lead people to do it?
However, the investigation just now seems to prove that they have never left Russia. In this case, the suspicion of these black island mercenaries seems to be cleared. On the contrary, it was Hughes, whose whereabouts were secretive, and had secret contacts with Russian intelligence services. In addition, in his secret account, that mysterious fund operates. It shows that he must have made some kind of transaction.
Mr. K felt his head aches more. He shook his head and leaned back in the chair. Then he poured a cup of coffee. He felt that he shouldn't act rashly for the time being, and wait for the investigation to go deeper before making plans.
