Chapter 337: Complex situation

"And the trouble doesn't stop there.
" Long Zhengwu said slowly.
"What's the trouble?" Lin Rui frowned.
"This woman's identity information can't even be found by Kobain." Long Zhengwu looked at him and said, "You know that the satellite network built by Kobain has very high authority and can call almost any resource. As long as it is the US Department of Defense. He can also find out what can be found. And I also used some relationships, starting with cia, but nothing was found."
"So this woman's identity is very secretive, maybe she is not an American at all." Lin Rui thought for a while.
"I have had similar guesses. But just half an hour ago, I received a new request from ExxonMobil. They asked us to resolve this before the terrorists or robbers announced the news. Question." Long Zhengwu said slowly.
"This request is a bit too much." Lin Rui frowned. "Will the robbers still get our consent to announce the information? How can we stop this. Besides, there are all-pervasive journalists. After all, paper can't contain the fire. . Maybe within a few hours, the news will be known to the world."
"Don't worry about this. ExxonMobil has completely blocked the news. Anyone within the oil company who knew about the incident also issued a password. This news will never be made public." Long Zhengwu said slowly. .
"Why do you do this? Is the energy of this oil company really so great, can it even cover the sky with just one hand?" Lin Rui asked in surprise.
"I don’t know why they did this, and we don’t need to be clear. We just accept instructions and complete the task. Other issues are not something we need to consider at all. What I have to say is if these big chaebols really If they want to cover the sky with their hands, they can also cover it." Long Zhengwu said slowly, "My guess is that this woman's identity is very special, and once it is made public, it will have a great impact."
"I think so. They probably did this to protect the woman." Jason analyzed, "We can't find out who this woman is, and the kidnappers shouldn't find out. Once this matter is made public, the kidnappers know this. After who the woman is, I am afraid there will be more serious consequences."
"This seems to be another troublesome thing." Lin Rui said helplessly.
"Very troublesome." Long Zhengwu said, "Well, are you ready to take over this task?"
"We have to learn more." Lin Rui thought for a while, "I really went to Libya, so I can't run around like a headless fly?"
Long Zhengwu nodded, pointing to the document and said, "Everything we know is here. Study it carefully, I know this will be difficult, but since we have accepted the task, there is no reason to shirk. This It is the rule of this industry."
Lin Rui nodded, "I understand." He turned to Jason and said, "Notify the other team members. We will gather in 30 minutes."
In the team's combat meeting room, Lin Rui explained the general situation and distributed the information to each team member. Jiang Jian stared at the document and read it carefully and then fell silent.
"Actuaries, there are too many ambiguities in this task. I need your analysis and opinions." Lin Rui said to him.
Kishi nodded, and put the information in his hand back on the table. "This information should have been provided by Mobil Oil Company. Many details are deliberately obscured. Maybe they have something to hide. For example, who is this mysterious woman and why she appeared with the executives of Mobil Oil Company. On the helicopter?
If these attackers know her identity, then her special identity is likely to be related to the attackers' motives. But they deliberately concealed it, which undoubtedly increased our risk in this matter. "
"I also understand, but the employer has made their attitude clear. No matter how much we ask for, we won't get more from them." Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Long Zhengwu has already tried this, even he Failed to get the employer to compromise. So it is impossible to get more information from the employer."
"Then it can only be considered purely from the Libyan side." Jiang An frowned. "From the location of the attack, it is near the Sirte Basin in northern Libya. This area is the main oil producing area. Qaza After the fall of the Philippines, many different factions were active in this area.
Judging from the attack on the helicopter, the purpose of their attack is clear. Because they used at least three vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft machine guns and bombarded with powerful firepower until the helicopter was forced to land with damage. To shoot down such a light helicopter, the kind of high-rate machine gun they use is easy. But the whole process lasted for nearly ten minutes, they were chasing the helicopter. "
Lin Rui nodded and said, "This shows that they are not aiming to shoot down directly, but to force the helicopter to stop. This is obviously to protect the personnel on the plane. In other words, they wanted to capture the personnel on the plane alive from the beginning. "
Jason nodded and said, "If it is captured alive, there are usually only two reasons. Either it is to ask for a ransom. Or it is for terrorism. For example, kidnapping a hostage and then asking for release, or even more live beheading. "
"That's the problem. Three days have passed. Usually within three days after the kidnapping, the chance of receiving a ransom or other request is the greatest, and after more than three days. This possibility is unlikely. Because in that situation, either the hostages have been killed, or they are ready to be taken into custody for a long time." Jiang An said slowly.
"Actuarial, can you make a detailed list to see how many armed factions with this strength are in the Sirte area?" Lin Rui frowned.
Jiang Jian smiled bitterly, "This is really hard to say. I tried to count. There are more than a dozen factions of militants operating in this region alone. And because the Libyan war just ended, these who once opposed Gaddafi The armed men are equal to a big victory, and all of them are strong and strong.
Originally armed with NATO-supported weapons and equipment, they seized a large amount of military equipment from the original government forces. A small faction can be armed with this anti-aircraft machine gun. There are no fewer than seven or eight armed factions that meet the conditions for attacking helicopters. "
This news made Lin Rui feel helpless. There is no way, these former opposition armed forces can now be regarded as masters, all of them have a certain scale of armed forces, and sometimes they create friction. No wonder those large oil companies have no sense of security.
