Fez, the ancient city in northern Morocco, the capital of the province of Fez, straddles the banks of Fez and the river, and is also the oldest of the four ancient kingdom cities in Morocco.
Like many Moroccan cities, it is divided into three parts: the old city and the new modern city.
The ancient city on the right bank has the longest history. In the 13th century, another old city was built in the west of the ancient city. It is an academic and commercial center. There are many Arab-style buildings, narrow streets and prosperous workshops and shops.
The modern new city is located in the southwest highland of the ancient city, with wide roads, modern stations, industrial areas and buildings. It is the business center and transportation center in the north of Morocco.
The old town attracts many tourists because of its history and cultural traditions. So there is an indescribable sense of primitiveness here.
More than 70,000 people chose to live in this dark, crowded and shabby old city. And this old town. It seems to be in a state of eternal chaos. Many small alleys have winding paths.
From a height, it is almost a sea of spires, and the porch of the wisher is a workshop of tireless craftsmen.
It is simply difficult to find a few people here who deliberately hide them.
Because most of the streets in the old city do not have any monitoring, and the terrain here is intricate, like a maze of old streets.
As soon as Lin Rui and others came here, they smelled a very bad smell, which was very unpleasant.
"Damn it, I knew that Fes was a stinky city a long time ago. I didn't expect it to be so stinky. Maybe we haven't found the terrorists before they were killed by the smell." Sergey complained.
"I think so, this place is too stinky." Kuaima rarely agrees with Sergey.
The actuary smiled and said, "Morocco is famous for manufacturing leather, and Fez is recognized as the best leather manufacturing center in the world.
Leathermaking, cooking, dyeing, kneading, and air drying continue the traditional craftsmanship for thousands of years. Those smells come from the dye vat. This place is full of dye vats, all lined up like honeycombs.
Each dyeing vat is filled with pigeon dung and cow urine. Because of traditional techniques, pigeon dung and cow urine can remove animal hair without destroying the texture of the leather. That's why it smells so bad. "
"I only care now, where is the person who meets us?" Lin Rui shook his head. "We have to meet up with the intelligence team to understand the local situation.
If you don't have an intelligence team, we won't get any news here. "
"He's here, I saw him." The actuary patted Kishi.
A Berber man walked over, seeing Lin Rui hesitated obviously. Then he approached them and nodded at them, "Mr. Rick, please come with me."
"Are you from the Horus group?" Lin Rui asked in a low voice.
"Yes. You can call me crow. Your request is sudden, and I am here one step earlier than you.
Others are inquiring about the news and there should be results soon.
By the way, this one is for you. "The Berber handed them some plants with leaves.
"What is this?" Lin Rui frowned.
"This is mint. The taste here is very strong, and the locals are used to it, but many people will be very uncomfortable when they come here.
Smell the peppermint to refresh your mind and reduce the odor. "The crow nodded.
"It's too timely. Give me two quickly. The smell here is like a biochemical weapon attack." Sergey quickly took a few mint leaves and put them under his nose.
Several people, led by the crows, came to a small house in the old town.
The crow opened the door, turned his head and said to them, "Come in, this is the safe house we temporarily prepared. Although the surrounding environment is complicated. But the sight line is good here, and it is easy to find abnormal conditions.
And most people don't come here, so it is relatively safe. "
Lin Rui nodded and followed him into the room.
After a few people sat down together, Lin Rui whispered, "Is there any news about those people?"
"Our people are inquiring, so they should be a little frowning. Because these people arrived before us, but they won't be here for long.
So it may take some time to find them. Mr. Rick, you might as well wait for news here. "The crow nodded.
"Let me sit here and wait for news. I might as well go out and look for news." Sergey couldn't help but said.
"I advise you not to do this. There are so many people in this place. You haven't noticed anything. Others are already watching you." The actuary shook his head. "And the place in Fes seems peaceful, but it's actually not peaceful. If you are targeted by terrorists, no one can save you."
"I need your help? Actuary, you have to come up with ideas, make plans, and talk about your command. You are indeed a good hand.
But if it's about this kind of sneaking, street assassination or something. I am much better than everyone here. "Sergey looked disdainful, but sat down obediently.
The actuary has the right to speak in the team second only to Lin Rui. His words still work.
They waited in the safe house in the old town until night.
The crow brought back the news.
"The few people you mentioned have been found." The crow lowered his voice.
"Where are their positions?" Lin Rui whispered.
"Just in the old town, there is a porcelain workshop. The owner of that workshop is innocent and has no previous criminal record.
But he has several relatives who were once peripheral members of terrorist organizations.
People like this are not easy to attract attention, and can provide them with cover. And we inquired that the few people disappeared near the porcelain workshop in the old town.
In the afternoon, we sent someone to investigate, and the workers in the porcelain workshop were no longer there.
Instead, there were a few more idlers outside the porcelain workshop.
This is likely to be their peripheral alert, so we did not dare to continue to investigate further, for fear of disturbing them. "The crow replied in a low voice.
"So it can be confirmed that they are in that porcelain workshop?" Lin Rui asked in a low voice.
"It is not entirely certain that they are hiding in the porcelain workshop. But it is certain that they are in that area." The crow replied in a low voice.
"This is easier. As long as we determine their location, we can try to catch them all at once." Kuaima said excitedly.
"It's not too early to be happy. Obviously this group of people has the support of some local terrorists. In addition, there is no news about Black Panther Gulei for a long time, and it is not ruled out that he may hide in other places.
The current situation is unclear, and if you act rashly, it's easy to get started. What do you think, actuary? Lin Rui turned his head and looked at the actuary Jiang An.
"I think so, first of all we have to confirm the authenticity of the intelligence. In addition, we have to continue to observe and monitor the area. See if these people will take the initiative to reveal the flaws." The actuary Jiangan was more cautious.
