"What is our identity?" Xia Yan asked Barney Ross beside him in a low voice, holding a new passport with the name "Jack Lee".

At this time, the three of them boarded a plane flying to a city in Central Asia and deliberately chose economy class.Xia Yan and Barney sat together, while Christmas sat far behind them.

"When we are operating in the city, we are like a sales company for a new Canadian precision tool brand. We are not welcomed in the company and are thrown into Central Asia."

"If we go to the wild, we are an NGO that studies birds. We are registered in Canada. This time we are going to investigate the survival of birds in Central Asia." Barney took out an introduction to birds from his backpack. handed the book to Xia Yan.

"This..." Xia Yan was a little confused holding the book.

"It's okay, just look through it casually. You are an intern, so it's only normal that you don't understand." Barney then put on a blindfold. It would take a long time to fly from the United States to Central Asia.

Xia Yan was not sleepy at all, so he really started to read the book.

……

Three days have passed and the situation is not optimistic.

Barney found a local guide. With his help, Xia Yan and the others braved the cold wind and dust in December and finally figured out the whereabouts of the precision tools in the past three months. Most of them were implemented, but some Six or seven sets could not be found due to various reasons such as war.

During this process, Xia Yan played the true role of an "intern" and learned a lot from the two experienced mercenaries.

There is no way, Barney can only activate their third identity, which is still sales, but this time they are selling arms.As an experienced mercenary, Barney quickly found a local broker.

Barney easily gained the trust of the broker and said that he had a batch of arms that he wanted to sell and wanted the broker to introduce some sellers.The sellers of this place are various large and small terrorist organizations.

During the conversation, Xia Yan "accidentally" mentioned the "Ten Rings Gang" to the broker. The broker said: "We know the Ten Rings Gang."

Xia Yan asked: "Where have you seen it?"

Broker: “It’s on your American TV!”

Xia Yan: You are talking about cross talk with me!

This person said that the brokers selling intelligence around here have all heard of the "Ten Ring Gang", an organization that just appeared, and they all want to find this organization. There are not half a hundred to thirty organizations in this area, but until now No one has found any clues about the Ten Rings Gang.

Xia Yan and others couldn't keep up the questioning, so they changed the topic and started chatting with the broker about business like real arms dealers.

On this day, the three of them had lunch in a restaurant. Seeing that there was no one around, Xia Yan took out the information to see if there were any missing clues.

After the Ten Rings Gang successfully attacked the US military for the first time, they released a video. The "Ten Rings" flag on the background wall was very conspicuous. Of course Xia Yan, who has watched the movie, knew that this was just a terrorist group that stole the name of the "Ten Rings Gang" The backer behind the organization is actually Stark Industries' second-in-command, Obadiah Stane.

As Howard Stark's best partner and the veteran who stabilized the company after Howard's death, he regarded Stark Industries as his own. When the son of an old friend returned to his prodigal son, he used his dazzling and enviable talents to Taking the company to the next level.

But Obadiah believed that Tony had robbed his company, so he secretly united with the "Ten Rings Gang" and kidnapped Tony Stark. His original intention was to let the Ten Rings Gang kill Tony, but the Ten Rings Gang obviously He is ambitious and wants to master the technology of manufacturing missiles, forcing Tony to use crude tools to create missile prototypes.

But Tony, who refused to admit defeat, used simple tools to build a set of steel armors hammer by hammer. With the armor, he escaped and ascended to heaven, and this was how the future Iron Man was born.

When Xia Yan was lost in thought, a childish voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Isn't this ten rings? I saw this at my grandpa's house."

Xia Yan turned around suddenly and realized that at some point, a local boy had walked behind him and was staring at the video screenshot of the Ten Ring Gang in his hand.

Xia Yan's eyes drifted towards Barney and Christmas, and found that the two people also had expressions on their faces like "I accidentally got distracted just now."Xia Yan and Barney looked at each other, neither of them said anything, but they knew what the other wanted to express.

Xia Yan, "Isn't this such a coincidence?"

Barney: "It happens to be like a trap"

Xia Yan: "But this is the only clue at the moment!"

Christmas: "Sometimes the hunter can appear as the hunted!"

Xia Yan and Barney looked at Christmas at the same time, "What, you can interrupt even if we make eye contact?".

The little boy just spoke English that was not very fluent, so Xia Yan also slowed down and said, "Where did you see this?"

"I saw it at my grandpa's house, but" the little boy tilted his head and recalled, "it was not on the flag, but in the book."

"Then can you take us to find your grandfather? We are looking for this, it is very important to us."

"But, my grandpa said you can't bring strangers home. What if they are bad people?"

"We are good people, why do you think we look like bad people?" Xia Yan's smile became gentler.

The little boy pointed at Barney and Christmas and said, "Those two look like bad guys."

Barney, Christmas:…

In the end, Xia Yan followed the little boy alone, but Barn and Christmas were following behind. After they followed to their destination, they found that no one was following or monitoring him the whole time. It seemed that this was really a coincidence.

However, the three of them also made an agreement that after Xia Yan entered the house, he would call Barney's number every five minutes or so. If no call was received by then, they would rush in.

"Grandpa, someone is looking for you!" The child shouted as soon as he entered the yard and was about to run into the house.

"Be careful! Don't fall." Xia Yan took the child's hand and asked him to walk slowly.

"Atik, who did you bring?" An old man opened the door and walked out. He was wearing a slightly old woolen suit, which was different from the old men wearing robes all over the street.

The old man was stunned for a moment when he saw Xia Yan holding the little boy's hand.

"You are Atik's grandfather, I want to ask you something." Xia Yan greeted directly in English.

"It's cold outside, let's talk inside!" The old man took his grandson's hand from Xia Yan and slowly walked into the house.

Xia Yan put his hand into his trouser pocket, made the first call, and hung up after five seconds.

Entering the house, Xia Yan found that the house was filled with various books and notebooks.The photo on the wall seems to indicate that the old man was once a university professor.

The little boy was sent by the old man to read a book in the house.

"You can just call me Xia. How should I call you?" Xia Yan sat down on the sofa that was piled with books and left only a little space.

"Just call me Aziz." The old man sat down opposite Xia Yan and found a new cup from the table to pour black tea for Xia Yan.

Xia Yan looked at the coffee table and found that there was only half a cup of black tea left near him. Xia Yan reached out and moved the half cup of black tea to the side and found that the cup was still a little warm.

"Mr. Aziz, have you seen this?" Xia Yan took out a close-up photo of the "Ten Ring Flag".

"Are you an information dealer?" Old man Aziz said after taking a look at the photo.
