Chapter 35: Walking on Thin Ice (10)

The new location is a residential area close to the port. When I arrived, I found that the environment was similar to the one before, and there were all kinds of people living around, and they were all in a hurry, walking towards each other without looking at each other, as if they were not neighbors living in the same building but just passers-by.

Our room was on the first floor this time. After parking the car, Russell knocked on the door with me. A moment later the door opened, and the Drag Bottle looked at Rusol and me, and let us in.

I went inside and looked inside. It doesn't look like a lot of people on the outside, but it's better indoors than the previous two places. There is air conditioning, there is a TV, and there is a fridge. In addition to the living room, there are also two rooms, a bathroom and a kitchen, and they are all very clean. It's not like a place that hasn't been lived for a long time, but it's a nice place.

"How was last night? Look like you're in trouble. The oil bottle pointed to my head and clothes and asked in a low voice.

I glanced at my clothes, and I could clearly see patches of dried and dark blood on them. I glanced at the TV off, pointed, "You didn't watch the TV?" ”

"What TV? How can we still be in the mood to watch TV now? The oil bottle asked a little strangely.

"Oh. I thought the news would be reported. We were in big trouble last night. As I was talking, I noticed Natasha and Sergei coming to the door of the room and looking at me, apparently curious to know something about the outside.

I looked at both of them, and I didn't want to hide too much. Because a lot of times concealment will make people use their imagination and always wonder: Is it worse than expected? This will undoubtedly create unnecessary panic. And I come back like this, if anything says that nothing happens, who will believe it?

"Hmmm... It's big trouble, yes. Ivan was targeted, and I was there to answer him. I said as softly as I could.

Speaking of Ivan, Ivan's wife rushed out and asked eagerly, "What's wrong with him?" Is he okay? Tell me, I'm going to see him, I'm going to see him. ”

"Calm down! Please calm down. I assure you that Ivan is fine, he is really fine. It's true.. As I spoke, I looked at Natasha, who immediately came over to help comfort Ivan's wife, who was already crying.

"Ivan is fine now. He's staying with Paul now. I said.

"And all these blood stains on your body?" Ivan's wife pointed to my clothes.

I'm not going to tell Ivan about Ivan's injury, just tell her that Ivan is still alive. Otherwise, if you tell her that Ivan is injured, you will probably have to use your imagination again.

"These are mine, and Pyatov's." I said.

"Pyatov? How is he now? Natasha asked.

"Hmmm... Pyatov ... Pyatov died. I whispered.

"Dead?" Just as Natasha asked in disbelief, Ivan's wife burst into tears. It should be from Pyatov's death that Ivan is still in danger, in fact, it is not easy for this woman to survive until now, after all, old Ivan died in front of her eyes two days ago, and her husband is in extreme danger at the moment.

I looked at Natasha and nodded, indicating that she heard correctly. Natasha quickly accepted the reality and instead soothed Ivan's wife as she walked into the room, closing the door as she entered.

I glanced at the oil bottle and Rusol on the side, "Where's Pinto?" ”

"Sleeping. Pinto stared at it last night. The oil bottle replied.

"Okay." I glanced at the couch next to me and sat down, "Is there any smoke?" ”

/

The oil bottle looked at Rusol, who pulled out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to me, I lit it and took a puff, "It's even worse than we thought." ”

"What the hell is going on?" The oil bottle asked eagerly, and Rusol on the side looked at me in anticipation of what I was going to do.

I've roughly recounted what I had discussed with Paul. After listening to this, the faces of both of them looked ugly, especially the oil bottle, I haven't seen him like this in a long time.

"How so? Are we really going to leave after those ten days? The oil bottle said and looked at Russol, who looked at me, "How did Pyatov die?" What did the Security Service do? ”

"Yes. The people of the Security Service pursued Ivan. We had already gotten into the car and drove away, but out of nowhere a car rushed out of nowhere and shot at us, and Pyatov was hit, but he held on until we shook off our pursuers before losing consciousness. I said and paused, "Then we rushed down the road. By the time I climbed out of the car to check on him, he had no pulse.

"Damn bastards." Ruthor said and took a heavy drag on his cigarette.

I looked at the oil bottle and said, "We should be gone in ten days, but only if the old fellow Eunice hasn't returned." But even if we leave the road, it won't be easy, and those people outside won't let us go. ”

"Then fight with them." Ruthor looked up at me.

The oil bottle patted Ruthol on the shoulder to comfort him, then he looked at me and said, "Did you say Younis would come back?" ”

I listened to the question ... If it had been before, I would have thought that Eunice would have come along soon. But now ... I'm not sure, because there are so many factors that keep him from coming back. Although Ivan always thought that Younis would appear soon, at least I was not very optimistic.

"Don't worry about that. Let's take care of ourselves. I said and snuffed out the cigarette butt, "I need to rest, you need to be vigilant, now we are walking on thin ice, we may fall and drown at any moment." ”

I leaned back on the couch and began to rest, but as soon as I closed my eyes, all kinds of questions filled my mind, and scenes played back and forth in my mind like a movie. The more I think about it, the more I feel that the whole thing is not as simple as we think now.

Why are we the way we are? Is it really because of the Russian side, another leader of the 17th Bureau was quarantined and censored? At first glance, it seems plausible that we have been fighting NATO, and we have taken advantage of it a lot. Now the offensive and defensive sides have switched places, and it is NATO's turn to carry out the operation. But the Russian side gave up on us so easily? Do they have complete disregard for the interests of the country? Even if the direct leader is isolated, if he wants to liquidate, he should be liquidated with that person, or count the old guy Younis. And since we don't have to liquidate, why don't we help? Won't you still need it in the future? Is it good for them that we are completely eradicated or is it good for NATO?

I guess this question can be answered in a very short period of time. In any case, at least from beginning to end, in my opinion, we should be considered successful and effective in terms of the actions I participated in, otherwise we would not have incurred such retaliatory actions. So a department with achievements gave up the entire department just because there were some uncertain problems with the leadership? Is this logical? Even if we are a son of heaven and a courtier, then we should find someone to replace us. Leave us here and ignore it, the people from NATO have come to the door and have no reaction? Is this normal? Ukraine is their doorstep, is the phrase "how can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch" is a lie?
