Chapter 282 Ambush
Chapter 282 Ambush
Romania, next to a market in Bucharest, a strong man wearing a hat is speaking some unfamiliar Romanian to the store, buying the vegetables he needs.
The brim of his hat was pulled down very low, almost covering his eyes, and the beard on his face was not cleaned well, making the whole person look a bit vicissitudes and sloppy.
With his gloved left hand, he grabbed a few plums in the wooden basket in front of him, looked carefully and asked the seller: "How about this? Is it fresh?"
Seeing his intention to buy, the seller tried his best to sell it: "I picked this from the orchard early in the morning, it is absolutely fresh."
"Besides, my plums are optimized varieties, which are guaranteed to be plump, with a refreshing taste, sweet but not greasy, and very thirst-quenching. You won't regret it after you buy them back."
The strong man was a little confused when he heard the series of sales from the stall owner. With his unfamiliar Romanian, he could only use the expression and movements of the stall owner to help him understand the long and fast sales words.
"Uh, then I want six of these." The man said as he picked up six plums and handed them to the stall owner.
The stall owner was also very happy to see that the business was concluded. Although he only sold six plums, he was confident that those who bought his plums would become repeat customers.
"A total of three lei." The stall owner quickly wrapped six plums and handed them to the man.
"Okay. Three lei. Here you are, thank you." After hearing what the stall owner said, the man also counted the change in his hand, and after confirming that there was no problem with the amount, he handed it to the stall owner.
"You're welcome, you are welcome to come often." Hearing the man's thanks, the stall owner also said to him with a smile.
After buying the plums, the man continued to wander around the market, buying other vegetables he needed.
At the same time, an ordinary-looking man was sitting and drinking coffee not far away. Although he held a newspaper in his hand, his eyes never left the man who was wandering in the market.
"Boss, the target is wandering around the market as usual, and the action can start at any time." The man drinking coffee secretly touched his ear, and then whispered to the person on the other side of the headset.
Hearing the man's report, a male voice came from the other side of the headset: "Continue to watch and report at any time, so that other people can cheer up, don't be caught by him and don't get lost."
"Understood." After hearing the instruction in the earphone, the man drinking coffee also replied softly, and then returned to his work.
The man who is being followed is Rumlow, the subordinate of Crossbones, and the sturdy man in the hat who is being followed is of course the Winter Soldier-Barnes.
Barnes got rid of Hydra's control after seeing the events of the plan, and he seemed to remember something after fighting Captain America Rogers.
He walked into the museum with such doubts, and then learned about the history of World War II and the Howling Commandos there, and at the same time, he also knew what kind of person he used to be.
After that, he secretly came to Romania in Europe from the United States, and settled down in its capital, Bucharest.
Bucky chose this place for two reasons. The first reason is that it is far away from those extremely developed regions and countries, but at the same time the level of development is not very backward, which is more suitable for his secluded life.
The second point is actually related to the previous point, because in this region of Europe, Bucharest in Romania is considered to be the area with the lowest consumption, and he will not be under great pressure living here. After all, he is now a notorious fugitive, that is, he has no job and cannot be too public.
He lived here in seclusion after Hydra's insight plan was shattered. He thought that no one knew his whereabouts, but he didn't know that Crossbones, who had escaped from S.H.I.E.L.D., had been keenly aware of his escape and abnormality.
After doing everything possible to find his whereabouts, Crossbones began to arrange for people to follow him.
Crossbones knows the skills of the Winter Soldier, and also knows that with his current strength, there is no way to capture him back and brainwash him.
So he can only use the most stupid method, which is to ask his subordinates to follow up in shifts. Although he can't control Bucky in his own hands now, at least he can know his whereabouts at any time, in case of emergencies later.
Just like now, the preparation he made in advance will be available immediately.
After Crossbones and the monster reached a cooperation agreement, the monster also explained the importance of Bucky to Crossbones. This Winter Soldier is not only an important bargaining chip against Rogers, but also has a faint relationship with Tony Stark.
The reason why he knows this is because the monster has already found the officer who holds the codebook for manipulating the Winter Soldier before cooperating with Crossbones, and he pried out the latter part of the information from the officer.
In the end, the main reason for not being able to get this part of the information completely was that the officer's mouth was too firm, and he would rather die than disclose this important news.
After the monster threatened him with his life, this person decisively chose to give up his life and use his own death to keep this secret.
Therefore, the monster can only speculate how to obtain all the information from the few useful information that was forcefully pried out when the officer was not dead.
It is estimated that the complete information can only be known after they capture Bucky. According to the analysis of the fragmentary information revealed by the tough officer, the monster can faintly know that the information he wants seems to be hidden in the head of the Winter Soldier-Barnes.
There seemed to be some secret hidden in his mission report, and this secret was so critical that the last officer with the notebook would rather die than reveal it.
The Monster and Crossbones plans are now in place, the only thing that matters is the Winter Soldier, so today is the time for them to capture Barnes.
After such a long surveillance trail, Crossbones could finally have the Winter Soldier in his hands.
After all, it is indeed a great waste for a perfect agent with such powerful strength and rich experience to wander around outside all day like this.
Fortunately, now that he has reached a cooperation with the monster, this resource can finally be used instead of just sitting idle here.
