Chapter 1056 Trip to Finland

At twelve o'clock in the morning, in the Pezko Mountains in northern Finland.

Except for the manor five kilometers away and the road a few kilometers away, there is no human habitation here.

On this quiet night, a "shooting star" pierced the night sky and fell into the frozen soil covered by the pine forest.

There was a muffled bang.

The snow on the ground was scattered and splashed in all directions, turning into a layer of dreamlike mist under the high-temperature airflow.

When the water mist mixed with broken snow dispersed, the pyramid-shaped airdrop cabin gradually emerged. With the sound of steam leaking, the hatch slowly opened, and a figure staggered out of it, scaring away the little fox who was poking his head at the side.

"Fuck, this thing is really not meant for people to sit on."

After holding on to the pine tree next to him and retching, Jiang Chen raised his arm and wiped his mouth carelessly.

Compared with his embarrassment, Aisha's condition was quite normal. After she walked out of the airdrop cabin, she walked up to Jiang Chen's back with a worried look on her face, patted his back, and cast a concerned look. Said quietly.

"Are you okay? How about...you wait for me here?"

"Pfft, waiting for you here? Then why did I come here in person? Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just that my stomach was a little churning just now." Jiang Chen straightened up with a grin on his face, and turned to Aisha who looked concerned. With a comforting smile, he walked towards the airdrop cabin and put his hand on the door.

In a blink of an eye, he had thrown the entire airdrop cabin into the storage space.

As soon as he got the coordinates from Lin Ling, Jiang Chen traveled back to the present world, took the space elevator to Star Ring City, used his authority to dispatch a transport ship, and took the airdrop capsule to land directly in northern Finland.

Originally he planned to come alone, but after all he couldn't resist Ayesha's insistence, so he took her with him.

In fact, there is no danger at all in this mission. Carmen, who exposed his coordinates, is no different from a dead person to him. Even if he is the only one here, it is more than enough to deal with him.

If he didn't want to give this "old friend" a gift in person, he could just ask Monica to do it.

After putting on the K2 exoskeleton equipped with an optical stealth module, Jiang Chen checked the equipment on his body. After confirming that the preparations were complete, he threw a snowmobile directly from the storage space with a wave of his hand.

Five kilometers is still a long way to go.

What's more, it's a mountain road. If you rely on walking, you may have to walk until late at night.

After Aisha sat up, Jiang Chen started his motorcycle and sped towards the manor halfway up the mountain.

…

This is not so much a manor as a castle.

This northernmost manor of the Rothschild family was built in the seventeenth century. It once belonged to a certain Swedish prince. After several changes, it was bought by the Rothschild family and renovated into a livable manor. Except for retaining the walls of the European-style castle, basically nothing can be seen of its former appearance.

Putting the motorcycle into the storage space, the two of them walked along the mountain road. When they reached the mountainside, Ayesha gestured to Jiang Chen, then activated her optical invisibility and walked forward alone.

The security guard wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket stood at the gate of the manor and yawned facing the empty and lonely mountain road.

A gust of cold wind blew by, making him shiver involuntarily. He looked left and right and cursed softly.

"Fake, will anyone really come to this quiet place?"

When he said this, he didn't notice an almost transparent figure passing by him.

Shaking his head, under the dim light, he suddenly saw a line of footprints on the snow that did not belong to him, and he immediately became alert. However, before he had time to react, he only heard a series of crackling electric sounds, and his consciousness left his body.

Ayesha, who had already dealt with the two people behind him, turned back and shocked him with the electric shock device in her hand.

With a normal human system, it would be impossible to wake up without a day or two.

After dragging the security guard who was lying on the ground and hiding him in the grass, Ayesha waved the electric shock device in her hand to Jiang Chen proudly, as if to say - "Look, taking me with you is indeed the right choice."

Jiang Chen made a helpless expression, stood up from the bunker, and walked towards the undefended main entrance.

His original plan was to enter from the front with a rifle. Anyway, it was far away from the city and he didn't have to worry about the support of the Finnish police. But now I think about the advantages of being low-key. If you can go in without firing a single bullet, at least you will have less trouble when you retreat.

Easily avoiding the patrols of more than a dozen security guards, Jiang Chen followed Ayesha and successfully passed through the atrium to the main building. After entering the main building, the defense force was suddenly relaxed, and even the shadow of the security guard was no longer visible.

"This defense is too lax." Jiang Chen walked down the stairs to the next floor, frowning slightly and looking at the decoration in the villa. Medieval armor and shields look very historical. Judging from the Rothschild emblem stained by time, these armors must have been aged for some time.

Just when he was about to take a step, Ayesha suddenly grabbed him and pointed to the corner wall.

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment and squinted his eyes. It took him a while to notice the clues.

"Infrared alarm?"

Ayesha nodded, raised her hand and sprinkled the special powder, and soon the infrared rays crisscrossing the corridor were outlined. Even if it is optically invisible, it does not disappear completely. If the infrared alarm is touched, some mechanism hidden in the dark may be triggered.

The only thing Jiang Chen wondered about was that Carmen protected herself as tightly as the oil paintings in the museum. Did Carmen never get up to go to the bathroom when she was sleeping?

"give me some more time."

With that said, the little girl took out professional equipment from her waist and was about to start dismantling it, but Jiang Chen raised her hand to block it.

"Leave it to me," Jiang Chen smiled confidently, took out the EMP grenade from his pocket, pulled off the fuse and lightly tossed it against the floor, then watched the grenade roll to the center of the corridor.

The sound of electric current buzzed across, and the infrared rays cut off immediately. Not to mention the trigger device, even the alarm device was completely burned.

Looking at Aisha's open mouth, Jiang Chen grinned.

"time to go."

After whispering something in the communication channel, Jiang Chen took off the rifle from his waist and loaded it, and took the lead to step forward.

About half a year ago, Monica came to this manor, but when she came, Carmen was not here. Although she returned in vain, she still took note of the structure of the villa. For example, Carmen’s office and the bedroom where she once lived.

After following the map to the destination, Jiang Chen stood at the door of Carmen's bedroom. He cleared his throat and politely raised his hand to knock on the door.

However, what surprised him was that the room was unexpectedly quiet, without even a sound.

Jiang Chen frowned slightly. When he realized something was wrong, he turned on the radio life sensing device. To his surprise, there was no sign of life activity in the entire main building, let alone this room. The security guards are concentrated in the atrium, and the servants are sleeping in the annex...

"What's wrong?" Aisha walked up to Jiang Chen and cast a questioning look at him.

"Didn't you expect it was still a step too late...?"

Aisha used the master key to unlock the door. After entering the room, Jiang Chen turned on the tactical flashlight and looked around the bedroom. The bedding is all new, and there is a book on the bedside table. Judging from various details, the owner of the manor should have just left recently...

Walking forward, Jiang Chen picked up the book with a cowhide cover on the bedside table.

By the light of the flashlight, he recognized through the two lines of small gilded characters on the page that this should be a biography.

The author has the surname Rothschild, and this is a family history that originally belonged to the Rothschild family.

"It seems that I didn't find anything." Jiang Chen curled his lips, turned over the pages of the book with interest, and scanned the contents of the book with the light of the flashlight.

At this moment, Ayesha received an internal call from a ghost agent.

After the communication ended, she walked to Jiang Chen's side and said softly.

"Just now, the Russian security services returned a favor to us."

"Oh? What kind of favor?" Jiang Chen turned around and asked.

"They saw Carmen at the Arrowhead Company military base next to the Lake Inari refugee camp." (To be continued.) New website launched
