At 6:50, Nancy stood behind the long line at the security checkpoint on time.Today's line is unusually long.Clearly, all pockets have to be thoroughly checked.She was increasingly surprised to find that the security personnel at the inspection desk took all the bottles or glass bottles from people's bags and threw them into a large container next to them.A large notice was posted on the top of the metal detector, prohibiting staff from bringing any liquids inside. Nancy pondered desperately about her situation.If the security guards took away her perfume bottle, she would never see her children and husband.Her heart was beating violently, and I believe the young man sitting in front of the security checkpoint must have noticed her nervous expression.But when he saw Nancy approaching, he just smiled friendly and asked her to open the handbag.

He fumbled for a bottle of perfume and a bottle of aroma spray.Sorry, you can't bring it in. Nancy's face showed despair.But in that situation, it was understandable.Listen, sir, please.I can't go in without this bottle of perfume!President Zieger of the United States is coming here today. I am the customer service supervisor. I can't face him with a suit of oily fumes!Nancy's words were rather reluctant. As the customer service supervisor, she didn't need to be near the kitchen at all.However, right now, the man didn't know about it. His eyes showed understanding, but he still shook his head.Sorry, we got instructions.

Tears welled up in Nancy's eyes.This is Chanel Allure!It was a gift from my husband on our wedding day!Do you know how much this vial is worth? Sorry ma'am, there's no way.We have strict instructions that all liquids are to be poured into this container. In desperation, Nancy picked up the vial, pretended to pour a little on her wrist, wiped it away with her fingers, and put it under the security inspector's nose.Please smell it!Really perfume, right?I mean, I know you get instructions.You can't throw away a hundred dollar perfume!Just because you believe it contains a liquid bomb, eh?

The screener sniffed Nancy's wrist politely and shrugged.I'm sorry, but I still can't do it, or I'll be in trouble. Just then, a man in a black suit, whom Nancy had seen a few times in the lobby and once on CNN, walked inside.The security inspector was taken aback when he recognized the man. What's up? This lady won't hand over the perfume, sir. The man took the vial from her hand and looked at it carefully.The charm of Chanel.I bought a bottle for my wife at Christmas.Incredibly expensive.He made a gesture of spraying the air, and Nancy held her breath.He noticed the look in her eyes, and must have interpreted it as that she felt sorry for the expensive bottle of perfume, and with a mocking smile on her face, he handed the vial back to her.

What should I do now, sir?It's obviously perfume in it, but the regulations are very clear The man cast a lewd glance at Nancy.To hell with the regulations!Let her go.I know this lady.We investigated her thoroughly. Nancy frowned.Thank you, sir!Thank you so much! He made a face.When it's all over, maybe we can have a cup of coffee together. I'd love to, sir.As Nancy said, she stuffed the vial into her handbag, put it on the small table next to the metal detector, and walked over. Metal detectors beep loudly. Nancy was taken aback.Only then did she remember that she was nervous and forgot to take off the gold-plated brooch inlaid with artificial gemstones.

She put it in her handbag and went through the metal detector again.This time, the detector made no sound.Without waiting for the security inspector to think about it, she grabbed her handbag and rushed in quickly. It wasn't until she came to the familiar reception desk that she realized what she had done.She sneaked in the perfume bottle from under the nose of the security inspector!She abused the trust of her fellow man!To make matters worse, she puts her guests' safety at risk.This is the worst thing you can do as a hotel worker. Her hands trembled slightly, holding back sobs.Porter Jack.Tobin gave her a worried look.He was sent by the CIA to her team, and it was rare for him to be a friendlier person.nervous?

She nodded, but could not speak. Me too.Of course, President Chigurh arrived around noon.The President of Russia has arrived.Most of the sheikhs and sultans also checked into hotels last night.The one that makes me most nervous is the new Secretary-General of the United Nations, whose name is so hard to pronounce. I think, let me have a cup of tea first!Nancy said, and walked into the small kitchen.At least, she can still be alone here. She opened her handbag, took out the vial, and stared at it as if it were an unsecured grenade.If she revealed it to Jack now, it might not be too late.Perhaps the CIA would pretend that Nancy had followed through on orders to protect her family.Perhaps, before that Auduma did it, the CIA people had already found them.perhaps

Oh, this is Chanel Allure! Nancy was startled.Jane who appeared in front of her.Tanan was also a member of the CIA.But unlike Jack, she was insensitive, short and fat, and paid little attention to appearance.She failed even the first interview with the hotel personnel department. Jane held out her hand.can i try it Nancy immediately put the vial back in her handbag.no.She said, her tone more determined than she wanted to convey. Disappointment appeared on Jane's face.I just want to smell it! Nancy forced a smile.Sorry, this was a gift from my husband.It is very important to me. All right, all right, all right.Jane pursed her lips, pushed Nancy aside, and poured a cup of coffee.This might be Jane's third cup of coffee today.She drank too much coffee and sweated after drinking it.In this way, it will damage her image even more.Nancy could only hint at it gently, but it didn't seem to work.

This is Nancy.The longest day of Shin's life.Throughout the day, helicopters continued to land and take off, bringing leaders from various countries.Standing in front of the reception desk, Nanxi kept greeting the leaders of the countries who stepped into the hotel amidst the roar of the plane.She felt her heart would break at any moment, her face was sore and sore from the constant smile.She believes that people can see the despair in her heart as long as they stand within a hundred feet of her.But no one seemed to notice her expression.She is just an insignificant little person, no different from the little worker next to the elevator or in the flower shop.

She has been considering whether to reveal the truth to the CIA.But she will probably lose her relatives and her family for this.She thought of how in the 9/11 incident, how the passengers on United Airlines Flight 93 to Washington bravely subdued the terrorists under the premise that they were sure to die, and avoided a greater tragedy.Whenever she contemplated confessing to Jack, she pictured Timmy laughing proudly as he blew out five candles on his fifth birthday.She couldn't bear to deprive him of the opportunity to experience his sixth birthday.Anyway, she is so small.Strangely, she had a strong feeling that Auduma would keep his word.As long as she did what he asked, he would keep her promise and let her family go.

Her reason told her how absurd this assumption was, and that it was just her wish.Once the terrorists no longer need her, they will kill her, just like treating her relatives, but she resists this warning in her heart. At nearly twelve o'clock, Jim.Crete came to the reception.All the pressure was concentrated on him, bouncing back like water splashed on a bear's thick fur.He looked at her with green eyes that seemed to see through everything.Then he laughed.How are you, Nancy? For some reason, she was able to face his direct gaze.No problem, sir. His gaze seemed to dig her.She suddenly felt shaken. You seem very nervous.He said. Nancy nodded.So many important people here, I kind of can i help you Nancy endured it in her heart.She couldn't bear it any longer.It's useless to keep going like this.She couldn't take it anymore, she couldn't bear the burden alone any longer.She must be free.sir i At this moment, Crete turned his head and put his hand over his ear to block out the noise.Apparently, he got a message from the hidden earphones.OK, understand.I'll be right here.He said, without looking at Nancy again, he rushed straight to the side entrance.From there, there is access to the staff car park.Today, the parking lot serves as a makeshift landing site for helicopters. The president is here!Jack said. A few minutes later, the President of the United States appeared at the side door, accompanied by Crete and two security personnel wearing sunglasses.He was shorter than he appeared on TV, with piercing eyes and an amiable smile.When he saw Nancy, he walked straight over.I'm Richard.zig.He said. Nancy hesitated to take the hand that the President extended.The president's handshake was just right and made people feel comfortable. Welcome to Al Mandhar Hotel, Mr. President.Your room key, Mr. Crete, is ready.I wish you a great stay here and a successful summit! The President looks at her.Have you worked in this restaurant for a long time? Nancy nodded.Yes sir, seven years. How does it feel to be away from home?Do you hope to return to your hometown someday? Nancy had a sudden urge to defend her decision to stay in Riyadh.My husband also works here.He is an architect. Understood.the president said.He ignored Crete's gesture to accompany him to his room.The helicopter was a bit late and the time was tight, but Chigurh was not flustered by it.He gave Nancy the impression that chatting with Nancy was more important than anything else, as if she was the focus of his concern.I think it would be great if there are Americans willing to stay in Saudi Arabia.This will stabilize the relationship between our two countries.Do you have any children, Nancy? There are two children, sir.A boy, a girl.Nancy suddenly realized that the president's attention was just a mechanical gesture, just to win people's hearts.He uses this method to make other people feel valued, making people feel that he is very kind.Just like she does every day.Like her, he was not sincere!Suddenly, she was full of hope that the President of the United States would ignore her, as other leaders of the world did, even despise her.At least, that's more or less true. Oh, not bad.The President has not said enough. Your children, who grew up in two different cultures, must have a better understanding of what globalization is than many people of your generation who have never stepped outside the country. Nancy did not tell the president that living in a closed and isolated residential area was not conducive to understanding foreign cultures.She avoids the subject.Yes sir, I hope so too. The president smiled.I believe that if I do not go to my room now, Mr. Cretter will have me escorted.He said, winking at Nanxi.Goodbye, Nancy, and give your sir my regards! I'd love to, sir.Thank you so much! Chigurh turned around and was led by his entourage to the elevator.Crete turned his head and glanced at Nancy, then followed the president and stepped into the elevator. Impressive guy, no?Just as the elevator doors closed, Jack said. Nancy nodded.Yes, that's right.Jack smiled.All Nancy's previous hesitation disappeared.
