Of course he wouldn't put a gun on his body casually, and he could even guarantee that, on the surface, no one would see that he had a gun on him.But now...he would rather believe that he was scanned by someone without his knowledge, and that was the only way he was exposed.

Then, not only Isaac, but also the weapons of Eva Ivanov and her confidants were confiscated, not even the knife of Marilyn Kailo was let go.After confirming that they were not in danger, a group of people were put on black hoods, and their hands were bound and put into a car.

"I heard that some of you have clairvoyance?" The person in charge of guarding them held an AK and smiled maliciously.

Isaac didn't understand, but none of the people who did understand responded.Compared with the previous room where the movement was almost imperceptible, the speed of movement this time was so fast that Isaac suspected that old Ivanov had a brain hole. In the underground palace, a track leading to nowhere was installed.

Fortunately, the journey was not long. After being led around several times, they were finally thrown into an empty room.No, it wasn't an empty room either, because there were two other people in it.

Although the hood hadn't been removed, Isaac could still recognize one as Julie Wang in a disconnected state, but he didn't have any impression of the other.

"You guys are here too." A female voice sounded strange to Isaac, and the woman's movements seemed to be unrestricted. Soon, someone took away the hood that blocked Isaac's head.

When I saw the woman's face clearly, Isaac felt that he didn't know her, but there was always a sense of familiarity in his heart.This seemingly non-existent feeling prevented him from acting rashly. In the current situation, it is very important to find out the enemy and friend.

"Who are you?" Eva Ivanov straightened her back to make herself look less embarrassed.

"Stakeholder," the woman said, "You can call me Anthea."

"But you are here now, I'm afraid you are not a simple stakeholder." Eva Ivanov was not moved by this overture, don't trust anyone too much, because no one can guarantee whether that person will gain Backhand when you trust.

"Something went wrong." Anthea nodded, admitting frankly, "There are many people involved, many forces are competing for it, and there are unexpected omissions in some places."

"What the hell is going on?" Eva Ivanov seemed to have reached the limit of her endurance. "I just want to get back my family ring. Why do I feel like I'm subverting the whole country? This is crazy!"

"It's not wrong to say that." Anthea unexpectedly affirmed Eva Ivanov's thoughts, "You think the death of old Mr. Ivanov was just an unfortunate accident, and the loss of the family ring is also an accident But under this matter, it is a confrontation of many forces. The old Mr. Ivanov is not working for himself, someone has been supporting him behind him, but when he needs to pay back, he regrets it Well, that's the cause of everything."

"Why didn't I know?" Eva Ivanov wondered.

"Of course you don't know, just like you don't know the secrets under this mansion and treat it as an ordinary house for showing off." Anthea said, "Miss Ivanov, whether you know it or not, you have Being involved in this matter, the current fall is just advancing the time of an inevitable event."

"Because you are in the same situation as me, I think you can only use your eloquence to convince me." Eva Ivanov calmed down, "This weight is not enough."

"I won't stay here forever," Anthea said. "My superiors won't let me stay here forever. But now it's running out of time, and we have to work together to save ourselves before they move everything away. Once They successfully transferred important information, and they will not let us go."

Eva Ivanov looked straight at Anthea, but did not reply to her immediately, but pulled Isaac aside, briefly repeated Anthea's words, and finally complained, "Please light up the language next time ?"

What can Isaac do, after many days of rote memorization, he has almost mastered the daily spoken language, okay?However, their communication now is obviously not at the level of everyday oral English.This kind of level that can only understand half a claw, he would rather pretend that he doesn't understand anything.

"There are indeed people moving here all the time." Isaac rubbed his ears, "The manpower of those people should be very tight, otherwise there wouldn't be even a single person guarding us."

"We are locked in a cage," Eva Ivanov reminded.

"It seems that this kind of cage can lock anyone." Isaac couldn't help but complain, "Although electronic locks are not necessarily safe, this primitive one is easier to break."

"You can?" Eva Ivanov's eyes lit up.

"But I don't recommend acting rashly without knowing the specific purpose of those people." Issac clenched his wrist, turning his fingers nimbly, loosening the tight rope, "In this kind of situation we don't know why, suddenly a Little angel who answers questions, will such a good thing happen?"

"Is this your opinion?" Eva Ivanov thought.

Isaac twitched his lips, "I'm really curious about what your father did in private, do you know? The style here makes me feel very familiar."

"Is there?" Eva Ivanov was puzzled, "We couldn't see anything when we came..." Eva Ivanov wanted to grab Isaac by the collar and pin him to the railing of the cage On, unfortunately, her hands were tightly tied, "Can you tell me the truth, are you a skeptic with intelligence behind you, or a psychic with real abilities?"

"Of course it's the former!" Isaac said without hesitation, and then threw the loose rope to the ground, "Now that's not the point, the point is, the architectural style here has the taste of the former Soviet Union, I have seen some KGB The photos of the underground buildings are almost the same as here.”

Eva Ivanov didn't bother to ask how Isaac obtained those photos. She was filled with another question, "But, didn't the KGB change its name to the Russian Federal Security Service following the disintegration of the Soviet Union?"

This incident was not a secret, and Eva Ivanov couldn't understand why Isaac would bring it up alone.

"That's not a name change, but a change brought about by a change in the political system." Issac said, "I'm just guessing, if, if there were some people who were actively dissatisfied or passively excluded during the reform, you have Never thought about it, what would they do?"

"Most of the KGB members are excellent soldiers or college students majoring in law. They are all excellent and patriotic. When they are most active, they are—" Eva Ivanov paused.

"During the time when the Soviet regime was in power." Isaac continued, "It is impossible for the change of the political structure not to be accompanied by a major purge. In the FBI, after the death of the first director, his direct descendants were all excluded, but even so, some of them have mastered it... It’s a bit too much to say subversion, but they have the ability to turn the political arena into a pool of muddy water. "

"You think my father is one of them?" Eva Ivanov felt a little dazed.

"Just a guess." Isaac began to fiddle with the lock on the cage, thanking those who took away the weapons. They seemed to be too rigid in their identification of weapons, not knowing that in some people's hands, a spoon can be a murder tool. Of course Isaac wouldn't hide a spoon, but how could he have less of the little things?

Although, because he rarely used it, he almost forgot about it himself.

"Those people don't want to subvert the current regime, do they?" Eva Ivanov's face was absurd, "No one would be so whimsical, right?"

"..." Isaac was silent, continuing to fiddle with the lock.

"You guessed it." Anthea, who was blatantly rejected by Eva Ivanov, said at this time, "No one wants this kind of thing to happen, but we all underestimated the vigilance of those people."

Isaac clicked his tongue, and relaxed a lot after hearing the crisp sound of the mechanism in the lock.Instead of taking the lock down, he moved it so that people outside could not find that the lock had been opened.After completing this step, Isaac finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At last, he was not locked in a cage and struggled helplessly.

Perhaps Anthea discovered that Eva Ivanov valued Isaac's opinion, and she communicated in English afterwards.However, it is not so easy to gain the trust of a person in this environment, especially the trust of Eva Ivanov.

"Then which side do you belong to?" she asked.

"I can't say too much, but I can assure you that I am trustworthy." After Anthea finished speaking, she looked at Isaac, "What do you think?"

"Hmm." Isaac thought for a while, but still felt that the lady looked familiar, "I know you?"

"I think we have someone we know in common and get on well with that person," Anthea said. "I've also met you, although you may not have much memory."

"Can you give me a hint?" Isaac asked, untying Eva Ivanov's rope.

"Moriarty," Anthea said.

Suddenly, Isaac finally understood where the sense of familiarity that made him invisible but lingering all the time came from.But, Ms. Anthea, who keeps changing her name, are you really not worried that I missed the point and just treat you as a remnant of Moriarty?

How can you embarrass your real boss?To be honest, the surname Holmes is really common. There are very few people here who can think of that gentleman based on a name, but those who are able to think of that name are not a secret!

And, that gentleman's hand is too long, right?Was he really not the one who fanned the flames this time?

Isaac is skeptical.

After all, people as pure and kind as him are definitely in the minority.
