When the darkness slowly disappeared and a glimmer of light appeared in front of her eyes, Alice's consciousness returned to her body. She slowly opened her eyes and saw a round ceiling lamp. Next to the lamp, there was a spider spinning a web.
What is this place
She struggled to get up, and then discovered that it was a basement without windows. She was placed on a bed without any clothes on her body.
There was no other person except her in this basement, and it was eerily quiet. She tried hard to recall some details before she fell into coma, but she couldn't figure out why those extras would attack her. According to the plan that James discussed with her, after knocking Thompson out, she and James would go to the top hotel in Las Vegas to celebrate with champagne, and then fire a cannon to celebrate. According to that plan, James would go to England with her the next day and transform her into a new generation of Bond girl. But now she was in a basement without even a centimeter of fabric on her body.
Two minutes later, Alice climbed down from the bed. She walked to the door and tried to open it, but the door was made of 3o4 stainless steel and was locked from the outside. She couldn't open it at all.
"Let me out! Let me out!" Alice yelled at the door.
There were footsteps outside the door, and then a woman's voice came, "Just be quiet, or I'll put some snakes in the basement."
For some reason, when Alice heard about snakes, she subconsciously protected the area between her legs, and her beautiful face lost all color.
"That's good. Just be honest and quiet and you won't get hurt. If you are noisy or even want to run away, I promise you, I will use a chainsaw to cut you into 100 pieces." The woman's voice was cold and ruthless. .
"You... who are you?" Alice said fearfully: "Why am I here?"
"Why do you think you are here?"
"I... I don't know." Alice suddenly remembered something, and she added: "Where is James? Where is my James?"
"Your James? Haha..." The woman outside the door sneered: "I'm afraid he is raising a ransom to redeem you now. You have met a good man, if he will really spend money to save you."
"He... you didn't kidnap him?"
"If we tie him up, who will give us the money?" The woman outside the door said, "We gave him 72 hours to prepare 1,000,000 US dollars. If he gives us the money, we will give it to him."
"He... is he willing to give you a ransom?"
"Then it depends on how much he loves you."
"I've only known him for two days. You kidnapped the wrong person."
"We can see that he loves you very much, and he should pay the ransom. Just wait, the most important thing you should do now is to pray." The woman left the door, and her footsteps gradually faded away.
Alice stood at the door for a while, and then dragged her tired steps back to the bed. She threw herself on her breasts, and the scars left by James still remained on her bulging buttocks and small waist.
She is beautiful, but there is only one spider here to appreciate her, but that spider keeps spinning her web.
At the same time, it was in a desert on the outskirts of Vegas, and it was hard to say that I was suddenly doused with a bottle of mineral water. He choked on the water and coughed violently.
When James regained his breath, he only saw one person, and it was that face that made him hate and fear him.
The person standing in front of him was none other than James, who had brought him this nightmare.
After seeing clearly that it was James, Thompson suddenly roared and rushed towards James like crazy.
Xia Lei did not dodge. When Thompson rushed in front of him, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked him.
Thompson's body immediately flew upside down, flying several meters away before falling heavily to the ground. Even though it was soft sand, Xia Lei's kick still made stars appear in his eyes.
Xia Lei walked towards Thompson.
Thompson crawled back on the sand with his hands, and said fearfully: "Who are you?"
Xia Lei stopped in front of Thompson, and the corners of his mouth turned up in a nice arc, "I am an angel sent by God to save you. You can regard me as your angel."
Thompson almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
The person who harmed him to this point actually said he was his angel!
Xia Lei walked to the back of a Ford pickup truck parked nearby, and then opened the lid of the cargo box.
Under the glaring sunlight, the cargo box of the pickup truck contained stacks of U.S. dollars, which seemed to glow. A car full of cars, at least 50 million US dollars!
Xia Lei patted the US dollars in the carriage, then took out an IOU from his trouser pocket, opened it, showed it, and then said: "God sent me to close your door, and then sent me again. A window has been opened for you. Your destiny is already in my hands. I am your angel. As long as you listen to my words, you will be saved. A young and beautiful woman who can take you around the world in luxury. Yacht, you can even go to the Pacific to buy an island and become the king, aren’t these what you want?”
"You...who are you?" Thompson was not stupid. When Xia Lei made this request, his first reaction was that he had met a spy, and he had been calculated from the beginning.
"I've made it very clear, I am your angel."
"Nonsense!" Thompson struggled to get up from the ground. He seemed to have some confidence, and his tone of voice became stronger. "Tell me, are you working for the Chinese or the Russians outside? Maybe you can They are from Iran, am I right?”
"Have you ever seen a Russian spy who is as handsome as me? Have you ever seen a Chinese spy who is willing to give you a car full of money? Or, have you ever seen an Iranian spy who drinks wine and eats pork chops?" Xia Lei said in a teasing tone. .
"If you are not a spy, who are you?" Thompson said: "You designed all of this, what exactly do you want me to do for you?"
"Actually, it doesn't matter who I am, what's important is that I can save you." Xia Lei said.
Thompson's eyes moved to the money in the pickup truck and the IOU in Xia Lei's hand. His heart was hesitating, but his eyes were already burning, full of greed and desire.
If a person just crawled out of hell and found out that he was not dead, his courage would definitely be several times greater than before. Thompson felt like this at the moment. Although he didn't know what Xia Lei wanted him to do yet, he was already eager to get the money.
Thompson hesitated and said, "What do you want me to do for you?"
Xia Lei said: "What I asked you to do is very simple for you, and it will not be discovered. You only need to survive dozens of hours, and your life will be different from now on."
"What if I say no?" Thompson said. People like him don't believe in free lunches in this world.
Xia Lei smiled, "If you refuse, this IOU will return to the hands of the loan sharks, and they will kill your daughter and your grandson. As for yourself, you kill Alice and wait for you. It will be a life sentence. There are a lot of black people in prison who like white people's butts, but I suggest you prepare more Vaseline because they will not show mercy."
"Fake!" Thompson was like an enraged beast. He pounced on Xia Lei again.
A second later he was flying again and landed heavily on the sand.
Xia Lei said calmly: "Those loan sharks are inhumane. It's not difficult for me to guess how they will treat your daughter. Think about it carefully. I have 5,000,000 US dollars in my car. With this money, you can You can retire early and enjoy life. It's easy to reject me. The worst I can do is find another target. But you have to think clearly that there is only one chance for you. If you miss this one, you will go to hell."
Thompson's expression was extremely complicated, and there was a war between heaven and man in his heart. There is a voice in his mind that says yes, and there is also a voice that says no. These two voices haunted him, making him hesitate.
Xia Lei closed the lid of the carriage and walked towards the cab. Just as he opened the car door, Thompson finally spoke.
"Wait!" Thompson got up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Tell me, what exactly do you want me to do for you?"
Xia Lei said: "It's very simple, be my person."
"Be your person?" Thompson was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"
Xia Lei said: "You are a brigadier general in the US military. You are in charge of security work in Area 51. You have very high authority. I think you must know about the Shepherd Plan, right?"
"So you came here for the Shepherd Plan!"
"Are you surprised?" Xia Lei said coldly: "If I don't go for the Shepherd Plan, then I go for your daughter. Which one do you choose?"
"Project Shepherd is the highest-level secret plan in the United States. What you asked me to do is very dangerous. If I'm not careful, both of us will be ruined. You have to think clearly." Thompson's tone softened.
Xia Lei said: "As long as you listen to me carefully, carry out my instructions meticulously, and make everything go according to my plan, nothing will happen to you and nothing will happen to me. I will get what I want, and you will get these 5,000,000 Start a new life with your IOU, we have nothing to do with each other, just transactions for dozens of hours, what are you afraid of?"
Thompson was silent. Xia Lei spoke very easily, but he knew that treason in the United States would be punished by death. He still hesitated a little.
Xia Lei said: "Mr. Thompson, do you still remember what I said at the gambling table tonight? Sometimes people need a gambling spirit. If you don't even have the courage to gamble, you should have some in your future life. How bleak is it? Think about your daughter and grandson, and think about the disgusting things you have to face in prison, what else do you have to hesitate?"
Thompson bit his lip, "I promise you! What is your plan?"
"You will know, but before starting our plan, you have to prove your sincerity to me." Xia Lei said.
Thompson said: "I have nothing left, how do you want me to prove my sincerity?"
Xia Lei said: "I am not the only one who is interested in the Shepherd Project. There is a Japanese woman. Help me ask her out. As long as you do this, you have proven your sincerity to me. I will I’ll give you an IOU.”
"What about 50 million?" Thompson asked warily.
Xia Lei said: "When you help me complete my plan, you will get this 5,000,000 US dollars."
"No, if I help you date the person you want to date, you have to give me half of it!" Thompson said.
Xia Lei smiled and said, "Money is a small thing to me. Since you want it, I can give you half of it." After a pause, he opened his arms and said, "Come here and hug your angel now!"
Thompson, “…”
While the two were hugging each other, Qian Jun pressed the shutter of his camera on a nearby sand dune.
Everything was going according to Xia Lei's plan, not a millimeter off track.
