Chapter 50 New Members

One week of theoretical physical training, two weeks of car training, and two weeks of firearms use classes, leaving only three weeks of the eight-week training.

On Monday of the sixth week, Ellie's group had six more people. Two women and four men, the oldest was over 40 years old, the youngest was 23 years old, and they were either Asian or mixed-race. One look at these six people showed that they were quite skilled, and definitely not comparable to the trainees recruited from the security team.

Ellie explained: "These six colleagues are my colleagues from my early years working for a security company. Last week, the branch of the security company in Tokyo was disbanded, so I negotiated with the company and the company agreed to let the six colleagues work in the company and stay in my team temporarily. Only two of them can speak Korean. Cui Jian, your native language is English, right?"

Cui Jian nodded: "Yes."

Ellie said, "In the next three weeks, if needed, please assist with translation work."

Cui Jian asked: "Will you give me a raise?"

Ellie smiled and said, "Gar, let's get to know each other next."

It seems that Bing Ci is determined to catch me. But this is a good thing. If they want to catch me, they must send the bait target to Hancheng. Cui Jian first introduced himself in English: "My name is Cui Jian, and I am from Florida, USA."

The six people nodded, their eyes expressing a certain goodwill, and Cui Jian served as the translator to complete the introduction process.

Members of the Ellie group: Choi Gun, Namgoong, Shi Feng, Joo Jin Jin, Kim Tae Min, Kim Jun Ho and Kim Soo Gil.

The new six: Inoue, Kojima Sachiko, Zhang Haizhen, Jin Yalun, Ruan Yuan and Chen Ji. Among them, Zhang Haizhen and Jin Yalun are Korean and can speak Korean.

Except for Nangong who continued to study, 13 people got on the bus together and headed to the unfinished residential complex in the northwestern suburbs.

Ellie said, "In the next three weeks, we will conduct actual combat exercises, using laser pistols as weapons. Let me say first that Jingtian and his team have many years of work experience and can be considered your predecessors. You should listen to their advice during the exercises. The content of today's training exercise is: anti-kidnapping."

Ellie turned on the LCD TV screen, and the video showed a large building complex. The building complex is close to the sea. It is a villa high-rise complex developed in the early years with sea view villas and sea view rooms as a gimmick. There are 385 villas, 12 24-story commercial buildings, three commercial streets, three kindergartens, two primary schools and a middle school, as well as supporting facilities such as police stations, fire stations, and community hospitals. The main road is in the shape of a human, and the villas are distributed on the left and right. The lower villa is close to the sea, and the terrain of the three residential complexes is different.

This kind of place is relatively rare in South Korea. After all, the land is small and the population is large, and the population density is even higher than that in Japan.

"This is the academy's combat exercise center." Ellie paused for a long time to wait for everyone to finish looking at the map, then said, "The target of protection is a family of four. The mother works in the commercial street, the father works in the only office building, the youngest daughter is in kindergarten, and the oldest son is in elementary school. The kindergarten and the elementary school are absolutely safe."

Ellie: "The bodyguards will take the family of four to the designated location according to the schedule, and will send the four people home at the designated time. Since there are no extras, the bodyguards cannot take the initiative or actively track the kidnappers before the kidnappers take action, before approaching the protected target, and before triggering the alarm."

Ellie: "The employer's family hired extras, and they may cause trouble for the bodyguards. In the first round, Iida and I are the kidnappers, and you are the bodyguards. You should choose your captain as soon as possible and go to the command center immediately after arriving at the villa complex. You have two hours to familiarize yourself with the specific content."

Sachiko raised her hand, "Not fair, there are 4 targets and only 11 bodyguards."

Ellie: "I will draw a target. Actually, you only need to protect one target. This exercise starts at 11 am and ends at 11 am tomorrow. Pay attention to the shift change. There is food supply and a rest room in the command center. Bodyguards have points, and assassins have points. You can buy supplies through your mobile phone, including sirens, drones, etc."

Ellie said: "This is a semi-developed area, and many places have become ruins. Please pay attention to safety. This exercise will be broadcast live at Hancheng Security Company, which is our company's board of directors. The live broadcast personnel will wear yellow vests. The 13 directors hold 5 million reward chips, and will reward colleagues with outstanding performance during the live broadcast. Everyone should perform well, this is also an opportunity to improve your status in the company in the future."

Ellie: "Now I'll leave the time to the bodyguard team." After saying that, she stopped the bus, got off the bus with her accomplice Iida, and got into the car following the bus. Without waiting for the bus to get back on the road, they overtook the bus and headed towards their destination.

……

The 11 people on the bus looked at each other.

Cui Jian was a little puzzled. He guessed that the new members were members of the National Criminal Ice Spikes. They all seemed to be very powerful, but why was there no one taking the lead?
Cui Jian stopped thinking and decided that the new members should be new members of the Ice Thorn, specially selected for Ellie's undercover work. These members have several characteristics, all of them are East Asian, and all of them are unknown. There is another possibility that these six new members were provided by Nemo. After all, the National Criminal Police is an official unit and must abide by certain rules.

The old students were more modest. Seeing that the new members were all seniors, they all kept silent. The new members looked at the old students and the new members. It was obvious that they were not familiar with each other. Half a minute later, a woman in her thirties, Kojima Sachiko, stood up first and said, "If no one is willing to be the captain, I will be the captain."

Zhu Zhenzhen applauded first, then the old students applauded in agreement, and the four new members followed suit.

Cui Jian's eyes turned cold, and he sat down next to the youngest new member Zhang Haizhen: "Hello, senior."

Zhang Haizhen nodded: "Hello."

Cui Jian asked, "Is the senior Korean?"

Zhang Haizhen replied: "Maybe?"

Cui Jian wanted to say more, but Zhang Haizhen said, "I don't like chatting, sorry." After that, she stopped looking at Cui Jian and continued to look at Sachiko, listening to what Sachiko said carefully.

"Excuse me." Cui Jian sat down next to Ruan Yuan and said in English: "Hello, brother. I heard your last name is Vietnamese?"

Ruan Yuan glanced at Cui Jian and said, "I guess so." His attitude and expression were as cold as Zhang Haizhen's, which reminded Cui Jian of his former roommate Wang Ping.

Cui Jian sat back and observed secretly. He found that Sachiko's emotions and eyes were normal. But the other four showed obvious indifference. It can't be said that they were still very focused and concerned about what Sachiko said.

Forced explanation: These four people are very dedicated to their work and don't want to miss any words said by captain Sachiko.

It's normal to have one such person, it's normal to have two such people, but it's a little strange if all four of them are like this.

Sachiko divided the 10 subordinates into groups, and Cui Jian and Shi Feng were in one group. Cui Jian focused on observing, not listening to Sachiko's work arrangements, and nudged Shi Feng next to him with his elbow: "What's the point of grouping?"

Shi Feng lifted his hood, took off his headphones, and asked, "What?"

Cui Jian repeated his question, and Shi Feng asked again: "What grouping?"

Cui Jian was speechless. Shi Feng stretched his head to look for a while and asked Cui Jian: "Where is Ai Li?"

Cui Jian: “Dead.”

Shi Feng was overjoyed: "How did he die?"

Cui Jian gritted his teeth and said, "I'm so angry."

I'm a killer, and I'm so serious about my part-time job, but you, a little thing, actually listened to music and fell asleep during the leader's meeting. Huh? This guy has no enthusiasm at all, and he is not afraid of being fired at all.

Shi Feng listened to Xingzi for a while and understood the current situation. He gave Cui Jian a sullen look, put on his headphones, pulled down his hood, and continued to sleep.
