Chapter 0286 Father's Note
As he was about to walk out of the market, he saw a shop selling wheat, beans, and other crops. He also saw the boss, a man with a turban and a big beard, about forty years old, with a burly build, a typical Pashtun.
When she approached the grain store, Tang Yuyan whispered: "Right here, standing at the door is Kalam, our guide. ”
Xia Lei looked around, there were fewer people here, but it was still very lively. Although he didn't find any suspicious people, I don't know why he always had a little unsteady feeling in his heart. always felt that there was a pair of eyes peeping at him and Tang Yuyan.
He has the ability to see through, but it's not a panacea, and in such a complex environment, he can't look closely at everyone. In addition, he lacks some experience.
Tang Yuyan led Xia Lei to the front of the grain store, but did not stop, but passed by it and walked into a gold and silver jewelry store next door.
Pakistan is famous for its goldsmiths and silversmiths, and their jewellery shops are filled with all kinds of fine jewellery, mostly silver, but also gold, but very few.
The owner of the jewelry store is an authentic Punjabi ethnic group, and the enthusiasm of Tang Yuyan and Xia Lei, two Chinese, is simply unbearable. Tang Yuyan spoke fluent Urdu and talked to the boss for a while, and then picked out a few exquisite silver jewelry. And the owner of the jewelry store only charged the cost price.
Leaving the jewelry store, Xia Lei thought that Tang Yuyan was going to reverse and go back into the grain store, but she didn't even look in that direction and walked directly to the other exit of the distribution market.
Xia Lei couldn't help but glance back, only to see Kalam enter the jewelry store. His left eye jumped slightly, and the scene in the jewelry store suddenly came into his sight. He saw Kalam talking to the owner of the jewelry store, then took out a piece of paper that seemed to be exchanged for change, and then bent down to pick up a ball of paper from the basket while the owner of the jewelry store was changing him for change.
Seeing this, Xia Lei retracted his gaze.
There was not a single word of communication during the whole process, but the words to be said were all on that piece of paper.
Xia Lei was ashamed in his heart, he was patronizing and admiring the exquisite silver jewelry just now, and he didn't even know when Tang Yuyan put the note. However, although he saw this scene, he also pretended not to know, and when he left the market, he said, "Didn't you want to see Kalam?
Tang Yuyan said lightly: "He already knows what to do, let's go back, he will wait for us outside the city tonight." ”
Xia Lei didn't ask much, and followed her to the intelligence station. He hadn't walked for a while before Xia Lei glanced back and observed the environment behind him. The feeling of being watched was always there, but he was never able to find a suspicious target. Especially the women here, wearing black veils that cover them from head to toe, and it is impossible for him to see through every woman.
"Did you find anything?" Tang Yuyan also noticed Xia Lei's unusual behavior.
Xia Lei said: "I always feel that someone is watching us, but I can't find that person, do you feel that way?"
Tang Yuyan said: "I don't feel this way, if someone follows us, I will find out." This area is in our surveillance area, and even if I don't notice it, our intelligence agents will be aware of it. Don't be nervous, it's your first time on such a mission, and I feel that way for the first time. ”
Hearing her say this, Xia Lei's nerves relaxed a little, and he looked back a lot less.
As we passed an intersection, a Toyota Camry lowered its window, and a blonde stuck her head out of the window, opened her mouth and spat a piece of gum into Ray.
Xia Lei hurriedly dodged away and said angrily, "What are you doing?"
The blonde said in Russian: "What are you talking about? I don't understand. You should be careful, next time it's not chewing gum, it's a bullet. ”
Xia Lei's brows furrowed suddenly, and he also said in Russian: "Are you threatening me? Are you still polite to spit gum on me? You have to apologize to me." ”
The blonde grinned, "You should be careful, next time it's not gum, it's a bullet." ”
"You guy!" said Charley, walking over to the Toyota Camry.
At this moment, the red light turned into a green light, and the blonde slammed the accelerator, leaving Xia Lei behind.
Tang Yuyan pulled Xia Lei back to the sidewalk, "Forget it, although I don't understand what you're saying, I don't think you need to worry about this with an uneducated woman." You have to remember what we're here for, it's okay to be angry, it's the mission that matters. ”
Xia Lei still looked at the Toyota Camry that was driving forward.
The blonde poked her head out of the car window again, flicked her middle finger at Xia Lei, and muttered something in her mouth.
"Damn, if she rushes back, I'll beat her for you!" Tang Yuyan was also angry, this blonde was really underwhelmed.
Xia Lei was still stunned to look at the Toyota Camry that had already driven away, and his mind replayed the middle finger that the blonde had just thrown at him and the shape of her muttered lips. He interpreted the Russian language of the blonde with lip language, and what the blonde said: chewing gum, chewing gum, chewing gum.
Xia Lei's expression changed suddenly, and the corner of his eye fell on the gum on the sidewalk. The piece of gum still had the blonde's tooth marks on it, and it looked like it was just a piece of chewed gum, a piece of garbage. This is what puzzled him, if the blonde woman ended up swearing twice, it was actually normal, but why did she say "chewing gum" three times in a row?
Charleigh's mind suddenly came back to what the blonde had said to him - you should be careful, next time it won't be chewing gum, it's a bullet.
The blonde also repeated this sentence twice. This is definitely not the habit of Russian women to speak.
"Let's go, don't look at it. Tang Yuyan let go of Xia Lei's hand and continued to walk forward.
Xia Lei walked onto the sidewalk, stepped on the piece of chewing gum with his foot, and then followed Tang Yuyan in the direction of the intelligence station.
At this time, he had actually determined that there was a problem with this piece of chewing gum, and the correct way to deal with it should be to tell Tang Yuyan, and then check the piece of chewing gum. However, a sudden thought of a character made him give up this idea.
The character he thought of was his father, Xia Changhe.
Last time, his father Xia Changhe also sent a Russian woman to contact him, but he was killed by Liang Siyao. This time it is still a Russian woman, and the implication is already very obvious, it is very likely that behind this woman is her father Xia Changhe. If this situation is true, he told Tang Yuyan, isn't this shooting himself in the foot?
Back at the intelligence station, Tang Yuyan gathered all the agents she brought with her to formulate a plan of action. Xia Lei listened for a while and then excused himself to go to the toilet and left. Back in his room, he removed the gum from the sole of his shoe and carefully unwrapped it.
Inside the gum was half a piece of sticky note paper, on which was written a paragraph: Son, you have been targeted, leave Pakistan, don't go to Afghanistan, it's dangerous.
There was no signature, but it was no longer needed, because Xia Lei already knew who wrote the note.
"Dad......" Xia Lei's heart beat sharply, and his hands couldn't help but tremble, "He's still alive, he's really alive, this is his handwriting, I recognize, this is his handwriting!
Xia Changhe's voice and smile appeared in Xia Lei's mind like a rewind of a videotape, and two lines of tears rolled out of the corners of his eyes and fell to the ground along his cheeks. And the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, which was joy and excitement from the heart.
Suddenly there was footsteps outside the door.
Xia Lei quickly crumpled the note, he raised his hand to throw the note into the trash can along with the chewing gum, but then denied the idea, he stubbornly stuffed the dirty piece of chewing gum and the note into his mouth, and swallowed it in his stomach.
This place is no ordinary place, and every one of the people here is a seasoned and experienced agent, and the slightest negligence will reveal his father's secrets!
Swallowing the gum and note, Xia Lei quickly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.
Xia Lei had just wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and Tang Yuyan pushed open the door and walked in, "It's time to eat, every time you want me to call you, can't you come down by yourself?"
Xia Lei frowned, "Eat so early?"
"Eat early and set off after dinner. Tang Yuyan said.
"So fast?" said his father's warning in Xia Lei's mind.
"Kalam is out of town early and we have to catch up with him. Tang Yuyan said.
"Well, let's go to dinner, and then we go to Afghanistan. Xia Lei walked to the door.
His father, Xia Changhe, sent a note to let him be targeted, telling him to go back and not go to Afghanistan, but this warning was sent a little late. If his father, Xia Changhe, had sent this note before he left, he might have refused the mission. Now that the situation is ready to be launched, how can he leave Tang Yuyan and the ten agents and escape? Not to mention anything else, the nature of this matter can also be characterized as an escape from the battle, or even treason!
However, this is not the reason why Xia Lei decided to go to Afghanistan to continue the mission, the biggest reason for his decision was his father Xia Changhe. His father has been missing for six years, and he has not been heard from at all, and he finally knows that he is nearby, how can he let go of this opportunity to find his father!
"I'm being targeted, nine times out of ten I'm also a CIA person, let's be targeted, I'm Xia Lei has never been someone else's target, if you want to catch me, or kill me, you have to ask my gun. Xia Lei's heart was ready.
After eating, Xia Lei said to Tang Yuyan: "Yuyan, lend me your sniper rifle." ”
Tang Yuyan was also refreshed, and directly handed her sniper rifle to Xia Lei, but said: "It's okay to borrow you, but after you go back, you have to give my brother a transformation." ”
Xia Lei looked at her speechlessly.
"Do you want to do it? Tang Yuyan reached out for the gun again.
Xia Lei clenched the gun in his hand, "Deal." ”
ps: Tomorrow my cousin gets married, I have to help pick up my relatives, I can't update, I'm really sorry. It's normal to delay one day a month, so please forgive me, brothers
