Chapter 3: The Door to a Foreign Country

When she got home, Yu Mengting lay on the bed and tossed and turned, her mind kept thinking about Dewey's words: My mother left me a note saying that she was on a tour.... How do you think about it, how do you feel that something is wrong... It's really strange to see Dewey today, I haven't seen him for almost 6 years, but his expression is inevitably too plain, isn't it? The more I think about it, the more unhappy I become, so I dialed Dewey's home... Unable to connect at all, Yu Mengting got up and immediately rushed to Dewey's home.

Dewey had already boarded the plane here, and when he left, he didn't take anything with him, only a few strings of numbers in his hand.

Before 8 o'clock in the morning, Dewey got off the plane and rushed to the mountains before the troops, about 20 miles away.

At half past 10 o'clock, Dewey got out of the car, and the place where he landed was still nearly five miles away from the troops.

"One---two---- three---- four----" Not far away, Dewey heard the roar of the military camp in the mountains again, and his heart was a little more relaxed, but this visit was not a good thing.

"Comrade, please take a detour, this is a military restricted area!" The guards at the gate of the special operations brigade saluted Dewey.

Dewey slowly took off his sunglasses and looked at him with a mischievous smile.

"Uh.... Hello platoon commander Du!!" The guard's waist pole suddenly straightened.

"Haha, uh.. I'm looking for Company Commander Li!" Dewey saluted back and put on his sunglasses.

When he arrived at the company commander's office, Dewey knocked on the door, but no one answered, and the company commander probably went to a meeting at this point. Dewey opened the crumpled paper in his pocket again, and the strings of numbers made Dewey's scalp tingle, once as a special scout, he had never touched such a thing as a message.

"You send the indicators to all the squads and platoons for the comrades to see! Get things done!" A familiar voice came from the right side of the corridor, and Dewey glanced at Company Commander Li! He was beckoning to the soldiers beside him.

"Good !! company commander," Dewey stomped his foot and saluted cleanly.

The air froze for a few seconds. "Yo, what kind of wind blew your kid back? I just left yesterday, what's the matter, I want to go back to the furnace so soon to rebuild?"

"Yes, I miss the army so much, I feel like the army is my home. Saying that, Dewey entered the office with the company commander, "However, there is nothing to do without going to the Three Treasures Palace, I, I have to ask you for a favor on something important..."

"Things... Alas... That's it, you see you..."

The company commander's expression became serious, "This...... There are many codebooks for messages, and if your mother uses the current codebook, we can check it internally, and if she uses the old codebook, then I have to report to my superiors. ”

"Look at this meal, it's a message. The company commander touched his beard.

As soon as he heard this, Dewey's head felt like he had been beaten, and his heart that had been put down was raised to his throat again, and his conjecture was confirmed by more than half of it.

Dewey stayed in the army for two days and waited for the results, but unfortunately, the code of the paper regiment did not match the code book stored by the special operations brigade for nearly 10 years!

"Dewey, the results are out, I can't match it at all!" the head of the regiment walked over with a paper ball, "Did you make a mistake?"

"It's impossible to make a mistake, but how can you not get the number..."

"Could it be... By the way, my mother's army in '78 must have used the codebook from that time!" Dewey clapped his hands.

"78 years, 20 years ago... There's no one in the brigade, so I can only report to the Confidential Bureau, this.. What you're not sure about... It's not a trivial matter to report to the confidential bureau!" "Actually, Company Commander Li didn't want to make such trouble, but Dewey was a good soldier he had brought for two years, so forget it, it's better to do a favor!"

In this way, Dewey lived in the army's guest house for another week, and he basically didn't close his eyes much these nights, because time really was money to him!

It was also a blessing for Dewey to be able to intervene in the Confidential Bureau, and it just so happened that the deputy director of the Confidential Bureau was Company Commander Li's brother-in-law.

A week later, the results came in, but they were a big surprise!

The message is true, but it is not a codebook of 78, but a 68-year NSA!

"Oh my God!

"This is a big problem, I read your file when I joined the army, and your family didn't work in the National Security Bureau. The company commander looked hideous, "Your family... There won't be spies, will they?" said Dewey, pulling to the company commander's lips.

"Nonsense!!" Dewey roared.

"You're scared me to death, I'm just talking!" Old Li was frightened back several steps by Dewey's roar, "This thing... My brother-in-law said hello, it's not a trivial matter, Dewey. ”

"NSA, this one really doesn't exist. Dewey was confused, he just couldn't find that he had a half-dime relationship with the NSA!

"Also, the message reads..."

Lao Li paused suddenly. "Hey, you mean, I'm going to die!"

"It's an exact coordinate!" Company Commander Li rolled his eyes, "The coordinates have been located, it's a foreign country! ”

The figure written down in a Morse telegram decades ago at the back of the photo turned out to be an unrelated city, and Dewey thought about it before and after, but he really couldn't figure out what the connection was, but he felt that it must be a code!

In the afternoon, Dewey decided to go to Los Angeles.

After asking the company commander for instructions, because Dewey was a special operations officer and could not leave the country, the company commander asked someone to help him get a tourist visa to the United States, only half a month, that is to say, no matter whether the results were found out within half a month, Dewey had to retreat and had no chance, and he was abroad, and the army could not help anything!

But Dewey was determined to make this long trip, he felt that his mother was in Los Angeles, and it was really difficult to find a needle in a haystack in such a big city!

After three months, Dewey's mother was still silent, and the local public security could not find out the reason at all, and Dewey, who was waiting for a visa, was almost desperate, and he washed his face with tears all day long, and it seemed that only when he left the country could he know his mother's whereabouts! Dewey's premonition became stronger and stronger...

Three months later, the passport and visa were approved, and after Dewey said goodbye to Yu Mengting, he embarked on a journey to a foreign country...

On March 13, 1996, Dewey was not yet 25 years old, and it was his first time in a foreign land.

As soon as I got out of the airport, a wave of heat came to my face, and the people on the street were colorful, and many of them wore short sleeves. Street graffiti, beach bikini balls, and street basketball games were all about Western cultural activities that didn't appeal to Dewey, who only had 15 days!

At the airport gate, a taxi came uninvited, "Young man, Chinese, right? Where are you going?" The Asian driver, who speaks fluent Chinese, appears to be Chinese as well.

It is said that the fellow was in tears when he saw the fellow, but along the way, the driver was looking for Dewey's words, but Dewey didn't want to deal with him at all.

There was an embarrassment in the car for a while. Suddenly, the driver said inexplicably, "Dewey." ”

When Dewey heard this, he immediately looked at the driver in the rearview mirror, "Who are you?" The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Comrade Dewey, don't be nervous! I know you, you are... Company Commander Li's soldier right?" the driver suddenly frowned.

"You..."

"I am Company Commander Li's informant in Los Angeles! In '83, China colluded with drug trafficking forces inside and outside China, and I was the informant sent here by Company Commander Li at that time. ”

"Informant, why have I never heard from the company commander about you?"

"He didn't talk about me, but he told me about you, you have made two third-class merits and one second-class merit, the second in the military region's martial arts competition, and the first in shooting, Lao Li has been friends with me for decades, how can you know me as a recruit?"

Dewey shut up.

"Why didn't Lao Li tell me that there was such an informant to pick me up before I came?"

"Lao Li is worried about your safety, and said that he would tell you after getting off the plane, you might feel better, right?"

"Let's find a place to settle down first, I'll take you to a place, I heard that the team seems to have found something, let's wait for the order. ”

"You mean, I... My mom .. Did something really happen to her?"

"There's no specific information on this yet, but... But we've sealed all your personal files to the outside world, at least you don't have to worry about your personal safety..."

Before the words fell, "Enough!! if my mother has something three long and two short, I... What's the use of being alive... It must have been the remnants of the peacekeeping battle a few years ago that came to the door! Fuck! I shouldn't have been in the Special Operations Brigade! What a fucking damn thing!" Dewey slammed the car seat.

Before the sun set, the two checked in at the Royal Hotel to wait for the results of the investigation by their superiors...
