"Do you want to drink something?" Hou Changlin asked with a smile as he invited Lin Wei into the room.

Lin Wei walked to the room and looked around slightly, but did not find Hou Zongsen, he was a little irritable at this time, but the elder in front of him was very kind, and he had no reason to be angry with him.

"Uncle Hou, what are you?" Lin Wei said with some confusion when he saw a shiny dagger on the coffee table on the sofa.

"It's okay, this was given to me by your dad back then, I am thinking about things, and I miss Big Brother a little. Hou Changlin beckoned Lin Wei to sit on the sofa, and then picked up the cup to pour water.

Lin Wei put the backpack he was carrying on the sofa, and then looked at Hou Changlin's back, his heart was mixed, he didn't know whether to tell Hou Zongsen what he did at the moment, let alone how to speak.

"Child, why do you have time to come to see me today?" Hou Changlin handed over the water cup and asked with a smile.

"Oh, that's, it's Uncle Hou, I've already put together the letter and the USB flash drive, the password should be figured out, and I haven't found a chance to open this secret yet. ”

Lin Wei didn't tell Hou Zongsen and Lu Zichu about it, after all, the person in front of him was his elder, because he didn't know if there was any conspiracy in it, and it was a bit inappropriate to say that directly now.

He turned to ask about the past events that he also cared about very much, because everything that happened after this was basically related to the previous Shadow Operation, and Hou Changlin was the person involved eight years ago, so this time was an opportunity to understand the truth.

Hearing this, Hou Changlin looked at Lin Wei seriously, the latter's knowledge generally moved him very much, brotherly affairs between brothers, even if he told himself, but what could he do? It was inevitably very embarrassing.

"There are some things that should be told to you, back then the shadow operation involved a wide range of things, before I separated from your father, he specially instructed me, if he sacrificed, if I can't get out, I must be imprisoned for the crime of leaking secrets, so as to be able to escape the persecution of certain forces, at first I was worried, but then some of the things your father said slowly appeared, in desperation, I was finally forced to surrender and squat in prison for seven years for the crime of leaking. ”

Hou Changlin's thoughts went back to eight years ago, these things he planned to tell Lin Wei last time, but he was worried that the latter was young and vigorous, and he was in danger of investigating the secrets of the year, but now it seems that he can no longer hide.

"Kid, in fact, before I went on the Shadow Operation mission with your father, I was in the anti-drug unit, your father was a criminal policeman, a long time ago I, Zhang Donghong and Han Zhengyang were in the same system, your father and He Jianjun, Land Rover are all criminal investigation police, the two units have a lot of cases docking, over time, we have become very good friends, this should be almost 20 years, now think about it, the past is with the wind. ”

Lin Wei listened quietly, although most of his thoughts were on Hou Zongsen, part of his attention was still listening to Hou Changlin's memories, he knew that the latter might have his own considerations, and he was only now willing to tell himself about the past.

"Uncle Hou, I thought you were all criminal policemen. Although Lin Wei relied on his own exploration during this time, he knew some old things from the past, but there were some details that he couldn't understand at all, and he didn't even know that the six of them mentioned by Hou Changlin didn't belong to the same system.

"It doesn't matter what kind of police force you have, when you encounter an international case, the public security is a family, and the anti-narcotics police and the criminal police are mostly related, I entered some drug trafficking gangs as an undercover agent when I was thirty years old, and your father has been on duty as an undercover criminal police officer for many years, and by chance, we went undercover to a transnational criminal group at the same time, and we stayed for five years. ”

Speaking of this, Hou Changlin's eyes were a little confused, as if he thought of the undercover with Lin Weiguo back then, maybe their friendship in those five years was extremely deep.

"Eight years ago, Brother Wei finally touched the core secret, what this secret was, he didn't tell me at the beginning, but his panic made me think that the matter was very serious, and then we helped each other and fled to the jungle of country Y, and we could have returned to China smoothly, but something went wrong in it. Hou Changlin was silent for a moment, which made Lin Wei even more curious.

"Uncle Hou, you should have returned to China smoothly, in that case, the transnational criminal gangs that penetrated into our country would definitely be wiped out, what went wrong with this?"

"There are two aspects, one is that the news I collected is that a multinational drug cartel is hidden in N City, and Nanling International Nightclub is their den, and then you should also know that an informant who went in to find out was killed, which later aroused the vigilance of the criminal gang, and the operation also failed."

"The second point is that after I got the instructions to continue undercover, I also received another news, Han Zhengyang's news, he said that his daughter was controlled by the criminal gang in country Y, and asked me to find a way to rescue him, and in fact I knew that he had no daughter, maybe like your father, it was his adopted daughter, I was still very moved at the time, but later I told your father about it, and I realized that things were not what I thought. ”

Lin Wei understands this, he still heard his father-in-law Land Rover mention that Han Zhengyang and Lan Xiaodie, chairman of Randi Group, have an illegitimate daughter named Han Yingying.

"Child, in fact, I can understand your father, he didn't tell me a lot of things back then, in fact, he knows Lan Xiaodie, and he also knows that Han Yingying's little girl is her and Han Zhengyang's daughter, let's not talk about Han Zhengyang's violation of discipline, after all, Han Yingying is our compatriot, as a policeman, it is impossible for your father to ignore it, which is also the biggest reason why he asked me to return to China first and find a way to rescue myself during our escape. ”

Lin Wei clenched his fists when he heard this, at this time he blamed his father for going deep alone and recklessly acting in his personal heroism, if he was himself, he would definitely return to China smoothly first, and he was trying to find a way to rescue the hostages.

"Child, don't blame your father, what was the situation at that time, we don't know now, and he chose to save people by himself after receiving a call from someone at the time, otherwise, according to my understanding of him, he is not a policeman who does not know the overall situation, he must have some kind of certainty to make such a choice, it is a pity that he sacrificed. ”

"Uncle Hou, what kind of call can make my dad change his mind?" Lin Wei was very curious about this, although Hou Changlin said that he didn't know the truth, but the latter was the person concerned, and there was always a speculation.

"I am afraid that the only one who can let your father stay is his teacher, who is now Vice Minister Zhou of the Ministry of Public Security. Hou Changlin thought for a moment, and his face became ugly.

"Vice Minister Zhou?" Lin Wei was very surprised, if he said so, could Vice Minister Zhou be the supreme commander of the Shadow Operation?

"Yes, it's not true, but you don't have to be too surprised, and what I have always been unable to figure out is that the current Vice Minister Zhou is not the leader of the joint operation back then. When Hou Changlin said this, he kept rubbing his temples with his hands, and it seemed that he couldn't figure out what to do.

"Are there other senior leaders?"

"Child, this matter is very important, and it is not that simple, because the commander of the joint operation at that time was my teacher, Vice Minister Guo!"

Lin Wei couldn't believe it, this is a bit unbelievable, this series of things is too coincidental, Dad's teacher is Vice Minister Zhou, and Hou Changlin's teacher is Vice Minister Guo, both of which are now senior leaders of the Ministry of Public Security, and they are also involved in Operation Shadow, if he investigates these two leaders, it will be difficult to climb to the sky.
