Chapter 549: 543, Fully Equipped (First Update)_1

Ren He had assumed that someone whose identity was unknown would come to exchange the equipment with him, given that Steve was in the US; surprisingly, Steve himself had now come to the Netherlands.

In fact, Steve’s influence wasn’t as great as when he had been with the CIA; many informants were reluctant to take risks for him.

Moreover, if someone did work for him, it was very likely to be discovered by others. Considering the burden Ren He was shouldering now, if one day something were to leak out and be traced back to him from the slightest clue, it would be truly exasperating.

So, for five million US Dollars, Steve had made the trip personally.

This was also beneficial for Ren He; the more secure the better, exactly what he hoped for.

Ren He took a seat behind Steve, "You’re not planning to enjoy a few days in the Netherlands?"

"Enjoy my ass, I need to leave before you guys start fighting," Steve said irritably, tapping the cello case beside him with his hand, "It’s all in here, good luck to you!"

"Thank you," Ren He said cheerfully, feeling a bit embarrassed for having had someone make a special trip. He had wanted to treat Steve to a meal, but since the other party didn’t want to get involved in any trouble, he let it go.

If Steve ever had a chance to go to China, they could catch up then.

Ren He picked up the cello case and walked away, while Steve’s pupils contracted as he watched Ren He’s retreating figure; damn, this kid was almost inhuman, lifting dozens of kilograms as if it were weightless!

Steve himself had struggled to carry the case!

Steve left quietly, without any more notice than when he had arrived, causing no one’s attention.

And when Ren He returned to the hotel room booked by Chen Da and the others, he carried a cello case on his back, appearing to any ordinary person like a music student, nothing out of the ordinary.

The accommodations arranged by Chen Da were for two people per room, with Chen Da and Ren He sharing one, but now it wasn’t appropriate for Ren He to share a room with anyone else, considering the cello case was filled to the brim with firearms.

He informed Chen Da and then booked a suite for himself; after all, the other students didn’t know he had gotten a room on his own, and why should Ren He skimp on his comfort while traveling?

Chen Da didn’t see anything amiss; he was well aware of Ren He’s status, and it made sense for him to book his own room. He had come to accept that his student was anything but ordinary...

Several students in the troupe came from particularly extraordinary family backgrounds, with businesses that weren’t small.

But if they were compared, whose family could match the likes of Luohe Group or Qinghe Group? Seen from another angle, Ren He was also, in a sense, Chen Da’s big boss...

Ren He used his room card to unlock his suite. Once inside, being cautious, he first searched the entire room using his surveillance detection skills to ensure there were no hidden cameras, and only after confirming the absence of cameras, did he start to inspect the equipment inside the cello case.

As soon as he opened the case, Ren He gasped. The sniper rifle he had used in the US lay there in pieces, and although Ren He knew it wasn’t the same one he had used previously, the feeling was like encountering an old friend.

The familiarity was overwhelming!

The black, cold condensation of its lines and color seemed so reassuring at a glance, making one feel secure at heart. If it weren’t for this sniper rifle, Ren He might never have returned to China.

Ren He did not assemble the sniper rifle in front of him, after all, if he needed to go somewhere, he would have to disassemble it and put it back into the cello case.

Moreover, Ren He was confident that he could assemble it in the shortest amount of time.

He then looked at the other items. First were the sniper rifle bullets: 20 armor-piercing bullets with black rings and 20 Armor Piercing Incendiary Bullets with red rings, totaling 40 sniper rifle bullets.

However, for Ren He, this was already enough. The essence of sniper rifle ammunition lay in precision, not quantity. Hitting the target with every shot was the most crucial aspect.

In addition to the 40 bullets for the sniper rifle, there was a handgun, 60 handgun bullets, and 3 magazines.

The handgun could be used for self-defense during close-quarters attacks, offering more flexibility than the sniper rifle in such situations. Steve had given Ren He’s needs considerable thought, and had provided more than just a sniper rifle.

Last was a black dagger. Its handle was not the hollow, survival type that could hold medicine, but a pure fighting knife, simple and straightforward.

At this moment, Ren He noticed a small box embedded in the plastic of the cello case. On it, a message: "Surprise package, use with caution."

When Ren He opened it, he instantly cursed, "Damn," it was a grenade! Steve had even prepared such a powerful weapon for him!

He had seen this kind of grenade before. It was a type currently in use by the American military and one of the most potent grenades available. Its ovoid thin steel casing was made of two parts that fit together, with a dual-function fuze that provided immediate detonation upon impact or a delay of 3 to 7 seconds should the impact mechanism fail, ensuring reliability. Its primary use was for defensive positions or urban combat, with the goal of killing all live targets.

With all these items in place, Ren He finally felt a sense of security. He did not know who would come out on top if his group and the CIA battle team actually encountered each other in the Netherlands.

The opposition was fighting for American glory, while he was fighting for his freedom. If they met, it would be a fight to the death.

No matter who would win, Ren He could at least guarantee that he would leave an unforgettable memory for his adversaries.

Ren He placed the cello case in the closet of his suite. This item absolutely could not be seen by anyone before the encounter with the CIA, and by the time he had finished setting everything up, it was already evening.

Chen Da called to invite him to dinner. The hotel was quite luxurious; to save trouble, Chen Da had booked the hotel with an added charge for buffet services for lunch and dinner.

Thus, everyone’s meals could be taken care of at the hotel buffet restaurant for the foreseeable future.

A lively group made their way to the buffet restaurant. At this point, the number of tourists in Amsterdam had increased, most likely drawn by the film festival.

The Amsterdam Film Festival was quite interesting. In the week before the award ceremony, there would be various activities, such as their drama competition as the opener, screenings of indie films in small theaters, and many stands giving away movie merchandise.

Furthermore, many international celebrities had arrived early to partake in the festivities.

By now, the Amsterdam Film Festival had become a major event.
