Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 704: Perfect for this meal

Yang Xiaole looked at the hotel, pondered for a moment, and said, "Now that we know the mission location, do we need to go check it out in advance?"

No matter what the task is, scouting should be necessary.

Hearing this, Old He retracted his gaze and said, "Whether to scout the place or not depends on the mission content. Scouting the place in advance has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages. You are not from here. If you go to scout the place in advance, sometimes it will attract the attention of those who are interested."

As he spoke, he started the car.

"Let's go and get your certificates!"

"Apply for a certificate? What certificate? Didn't we say we can't be exposed?"

Yang Xiaole felt strange for a moment.

Lao He started the car and smiled without looking back: "Of course I'll take you to get a fake certificate! Although it won't stand up to scrutiny, it's still fine for daily activities."

These words left Yang Xiaole speechless for a while.

Is there any business of making fake certificates here?
But think about it, it is quite suitable for them to use fake ID with their identities. If the mission fails, their background will not be exposed.

And he knew without even thinking about it that Lao He would never apply for documents as a mainlander.

The car started and headed in another direction.

Sure enough, Lao He said on the way that all of them would apply for documents in countries in Southeast Asia.

Singapore, Myanmar, Vietnam, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, there are all kinds of them.

After hearing what Lao He said, everyone had opinions.

In particular, there is an obvious resistance among Japan, Taiwan and Vietnam. After all, this is due to historical reasons.

Seeing this, Lao He said, "Special treatment during special times. Don't carry out the mission with emotion. As long as you want to complete the mission, you must endure any grievances."

After hearing this, everyone put aside their dissatisfaction.

More than half an hour later, the car arrived at the place, which was a black photo studio.

Lao He talked for a while and then started taking pictures.

Business here is not very good and there are not many customers inside.

Several people took photos together. The reason why they didn’t come together was because they were worried that there would be too many people.

After taking the photos, Lao He and his men returned to the car and waited.

"Hey, Lao Hei! Do you think this photo studio is insured?"

In the car, Zhang Xuesong asked him a question.

Yang Xiaole watched Lao He re-enter the store and shook his head. "There is no such thing as absolute safety in the world. If someone really wants to investigate, they can easily find out by comparing our skin color. It would also be easy to find Lao He by following the clues."

At least in his opinion, if there is something to be investigated, it can be easily found.

The main reason is naturally skin color.

This is why missions in Africa are extremely dangerous.

Zhang Xuesong still frowned when he heard this: "In that case, wouldn't it be easy for Lao He and the others to be exposed?"

Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and hummed, "Yes! But it's relative. At least people who make fake certificates are definitely targets of crackdowns here. After all, he has violated the law. But Lao He doesn't come here often, so once or twice occasionally is not a problem. As long as no one really investigates it."

At least the authorities will not investigate unless they are under too much pressure.

The documents were issued relatively quickly. In less than two hours, all of them had their documents processed.

Old He returned to the car with the things and distributed them to the people: "Take these things and don't lose them. When you are out and about, as long as you are not handling bank passbooks or dealing with government matters, generally there won't be any big problems."

Yang Xiaole took the thing and found it was a hard folding certificate.

The content is printed.

There were photos and information on it, but they were all in French and no one could understand it.

This is not a passport and does not require English for domestic circulation.

Your passport may be needed when traveling around the world, so you naturally need to have English, which is widely used worldwide.

Lao He looked at Yang Xiaole's ID and said, "You are a Singaporean. You came here half a year ago. Remember it clearly. Your name is Yang Hao, so there will be no confusion."

Then he talked about other people.

Zhang Xuesong is Singaporean like him.

What made Li Jianguo dissatisfied was that he was given the identity of a Japanese devil.

I heard Li Jianguo mumbling: "Is the little Japanese as tall as me? Big head is more like me."

Xu Jinbu was naturally arranged together as well.

Hearing this, Xu Jinbu became so angry that his face turned red.

"What's wrong with me? I'm not short anymore!"

Hearing this, everyone was laughing.

Lao He looked at the time and started the car: "Let's go, go back first, and the rest of the people can deal with it in the afternoon. It's not good to have too many people at once."

There was no rush to go back, but instead he drove around the area with everyone to familiarize himself with the terrain.

It was almost noon when the group returned to the grocery store.

When they arrived at the place, the door of the shop had been closed.

Old He seemed to know the customs here. He came to the door and knocked on the wooden door gently and rhythmically.

After a while, Wan Qing opened the door.

He looked at the person at the door, looked around, and nodded slightly.

Lao He responded and led the way in.

The door was sealed again and there was electric light, but the quality was not very good.

After entering, Lao He began to introduce them: "This is Wan Qing, this is Yang Hao, the leader of this team..."

Wan Qing looked at them, smiled and extended his hand: "Hello, Comrade Yang Hao. Welcome!"

"Hello, Comrade Wan Qing, thank you for your hard work."

Everyone exchanged greetings.

Wan Qing then said, "Okay, let's make it short. First, let me tell you the content of our mission this time. You guys follow me first."

Then he led the people through the shop and came to a house inside, which had a back door.

The room is about ten square meters in size.

There were a few things piled inside, and some wooden stools.

Wan Qing moved a table over, placed it in the middle, took out a map and placed it on it.

Pointing to a place, he said, "This is the Il Hotel, you should have been there before!"

Yang Xiaole looked at it and nodded slightly: "Yes, I have been there, but I didn't go in."

Wan Qing hummed, then said: "We received news. Tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow, the Rikal Armed Forces will send people here to carry out color isolation. Their previous person in charge here is dead, and we don't know the name of the new person! But their contact person is in this hotel.

The name is Sandy.

What we need to do is to find the new person in charge and track his whereabouts. If possible, find an opportunity to kill him. "

These words made Yang Xiaole raise his eyebrows.

motherfucker.

This task is really suitable for him.

There is no need for so many people, he alone is enough!

I thought it was going to be a big deal!

As for the Rikal armed forces, they are naturally the largest local armed forces besides the official ones, with a total strength of more than 3,000 people.

These three thousand people are not like the local armed forces in South Africa.

The equipment here is very advanced and complete.

Basically, there is no shortage of conventional combat equipment.

Of course, there are definitely no fighter jets, missiles and the like. After all, weapons are just weapons.

And there are not many heavy weapons such as helicopters and tanks.

After Wan Qing finished speaking, he took out a photo and said, "This person is Sandy. He is currently working as a waiter in a restaurant on the second floor. It is not an easy task to keep an eye on him."

Yang Xiaole took the photo and looked at it.

This is a color photo. If it were black and white, you might not be able to see the face clearly. This is a typical African face. The man is a little thin, wearing a suit and a hat on his head.

After reading it, I showed it to other people.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Lao Wan, I'll call you this, okay?"

This is also what Lao He calls him.

I don't usually call you by your name.

Wan Qing naturally didn't care much: "It's all right, it's not that particular."

Yang Xiaole hummed and said, "It's a pity that I don't speak French, otherwise I could have done this job by myself."

These words made Lao He and Wan Qing stunned for a moment.

Seeing Lao He's bewildered expression, he said, "Within a range of 100 meters, I can hear you as long as you speak, even the smallest sound! Beyond 100 meters, the difference is quite large."

When Old He heard this, his mouth opened wide, a look of disbelief on his face.

But when he saw the calm expressions of Zhang Xuesong and others, he finally reacted.

"Is that true? If that's the case, then the risk of exposure would be much less."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole said, "Then go out, find a place, and try it!"

Wan Qing and Lao He exchanged glances at each other, then went out directly, walked a distance into the commercial district, and came to the door.

Then we had a brief exchange there.

Some have loud voices, and some have soft voices.

It’s almost time to come back.

Yang Xiaole looked at the two of them and said with a smile:
"Old He, is this true? How can there be such a person?"

“Who knows? Let’s try and see.”

"Then should we use a foreign language..."

……

As Yang Xiaole repeated the story, both Lao He and the other man were shocked.

Old He looked at him and sighed, "You really are so suitable for this job."

Then he said, "If you relay what others have said, can you do it?"

Yang Xiaole had naturally thought about this question as well: "I don't know. After all, I don't understand the pronunciation here. People talk very fast when they chat, and there's no guarantee that they won't speak with dialect."

Accents aren't limited to Chinese dialects.

The pronunciation may also be slightly different in other places.

Old He also frowned when he heard this.

It's such a pity that such a powerful ability cannot be used.

It's like monitoring a phone call but not being able to understand what the other person is saying.

His heart was itching from the thorns.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Can you hear the sounds outside? Try and see if we can understand them?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole closed his eyes and randomly found two people who were talking nearby.

Try to repeat what the other person said exactly.

If you speak the same language, it is easy to remember, but if you don't know the language, it will be very difficult.

“@*#（￥*@）@*@）”

"(#*(#))@))"

Yang Xiaole focused his attention on the two of them and repeated what he had said quickly.

Lao He and the other man were listening attentively.

And Lao He was translating: "I was looking for food for...the cow...just now..."

It's intermittent, but I can understand the general meaning.

There are also some that cannot be translated, I wonder if it’s because Yang Xiaole’s pronunciation is not standard.

This is the conversation between two local black people in their daily life there.

Yang Xiaole stopped.

Looked at Lao He.

Old He thought for a moment and said, "Amazing, really amazing. If you can quickly learn the language here, it will be a huge help to us."

Everyone nodded.

In fact, they also realized that the most they came here was to carry out tracking missions.

After all, few people can hear what the other person says while tracking, especially an eye-catching yellow person.

Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and said, "How about this, let's follow your plan first. If possible, I will also start learning. Once I have a basic foundation, my pronunciation will be more standard."

Old He hummed, then thought of something.

He asked, "Since you can hear such a subtle sound, can you also hear it in the direction?"

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Yeah, that's right! That's why I could hear people breathing in the dark during the jungle battles. That's why I made great contributions."

When Old He heard this, he felt as if he had discovered a treasure.

After looking him over, he said, "Okay, I'll go pick up the rest of the people and get their documents processed, and then we'll discuss the specific actions."

That’s settled.

Lao He went to pick someone up, and Yang Xiaole and his group stayed here for dinner.

There is a kitchen at the back where you can cook, naturally using firewood.

"Big Head, you guys go help!"

Yang Xiaole was making arrangements there.

Seeing this, Wan Qing did not rush to the kitchen, but went to find a notebook and handed it to him.

"Xiao Hei, these are basic French words and pronunciation. There is no systematic teaching, so we can only use this stupid method. You will learn them and get used to them later."

Yang Xiaole was already used to the nickname Xiaohei, so he took it and took a look.

All I saw were various English letters written in pen on the notebook.

The first page is the French alphabet.

The second page starts with simple words, and the rest are simple daily routines and sentences.

Seeing the transliteration below made him laugh.

This reminded him of how difficult it was to learn English in later generations, as many words were simply memorized using the transliteration method.

This is not a good idea, and may even be non-standard. Remember that it is difficult to change it later.

But the benefit is that it is easier to remember.

After looking at it for a while, he looked up and smiled, "Okay, then you go ahead and do your work. If I come across something I don't understand or pronounce incorrectly, you can remind me then."

After drinking so much well water, his absorption ability is no longer what it used to be.

Wan Qing agreed and took people to the kitchen.

Yang Xiaole followed behind and started by learning according to the French alphabet.

It is somewhat similar to English but the pronunciation is a little different.

Transliteration is transliteration, and the pronunciation is definitely not standard. Wan Qing was there correcting the correct pronunciation from time to time.

After all, Wan Qing's accent is now very authentic.

While learning, Yang Xiaole was also thinking.

People like Wan Qing can speak foreign languages ​​so fluently, they must have studied for many years.

These are all precious talents!
You should know that even now there are not many people in mainland China who can speak foreign languages, because foreign languages ​​are not included in the scope of examinations.

No one will study if there is no exam.

He collected his thoughts and stopped thinking about it, just quietly studying there.

With his good memory, he was naturally able to learn the 26 French letters quickly, and the next step was to integrate them into his mind.
