Chapter 52: The Red Cross
The area of the border city is not large, and the two of them quickly arrived at the place, and this street is considered an area with a relatively high concentration of Russians. The buildings next to the road have a bit of the smell of old Maozi as the locals say, which is obviously different from other places in appearance.
Lydia chose a Russian-style coffee shop, well, at least nominally. As a port city, although the basic conditions of the border city are not very good, just like the Russian Far Eastern cities have Chinese people, it is not surprising that some Russians live here permanently, but they are not everywhere as most people think.
The combination of Lin Ye and Lydia still attracts some attention when walking down the street, even in this café. After all, most of the people who patronize here are still Chinese.
"What kind of coffee do you want?" said Lydia with a note in Russian, which made it much easier for her.
"Do you think I look like someone who often comes to this kind of place?" Lin Ye said without thinking, wouldn't it be a shame to say the wrong thing.
"It's not like it, but you can learn, it's much easier than going to school. A slight smile hung on the corner of Lydia's mouth, which was not a mockery of Lin Ye, but a reminder from the side.
On the surface, Lydia, who is polite and polite, has seen a lot, and because of family relationships, gangsters are not uncommon. So Lydia will not be sarcastic to anyone, nor will she deliberately say anything, and will interact completely by nature.
Simply ordered two cups of coffee, which was impressive, and now Lin Ye felt that this Mao Mei, who looked difficult to contact, finally had a hint of human flavor. He himself was nailed to a child-like body with the soul of an adult, and others looked weird enough, but this girl felt even stranger to Lin Ye.
Lydia's arms were pressed against the table like white lotus, and as she drank coffee, a hint of inquiry flashed between her eyes. This demeanor was noticed by Lin Ye, and he asked in a low voice, "You also came out to relax, right?"
"You're sensitive! go out for a walk with me" Lydia sighed and put down her coffee, probably because Lin Ye was not Russian, which made her confide in her heart a little, without worrying about being leaked.
"Okay!" Lin Ye simply agreed, and then took out the money to settle the bill, and the two of them came out one after another, and there was a church nearby. This is the border between China and Russia, so this is a relatively rare Orthodox church in the country.
However, this Orthodox church, in Lin Ye's opinion, is not the same as the church in Russia, and even has a kind of Buddhist characteristics in his eyes, which is not surprising, many old buildings actually have no obvious religious characteristics, for example, he has seen a mosque, if it is not written in three Chinese characters, the average person still thinks that it is a Taoist temple set up there, life is so wonderful, often walk around and always see strange things.
And the cross of this church is red, so it is very festive, and Lydia, who has her back to the cross, speaks out about the current troubles, when it comes to the dispute between the Minister of Internal Affairs of Primorye, and Lydia's father has an opponent. The head of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs Nakhodka is also inevitable.
Nakhodka is an ice-free port, only less important than Vladivostok, and although it has a small population, it is also one of the few populous cities in Primorsky Krai, and this challenger should not be underestimated. At present, he has received a lot of support, and this person himself is older than Lydia's father, in short, it is not easy to do.
I have enough qualifications, and there are people who support the conditions for both, and this is not a sentence that can solve the problem.
"It turns out that the current Russia, it is the people who still open their mouths and close their mouths, when the Soviet Union was there, there were still task indicators for those cadres to complete, and now that they have become administrative officials, it is estimated that they only have to move their mouths, you Russians themselves don't believe what those people say, right?" From Lydia's words, Lin Ye could hear how her father usually spoke, and couldn't help but be a little funny.
"You're still laughing!" Lydia had a serious face, she was really angry, although she didn't have any hope that it would solve the problem, she just complained and complained, but she didn't want to hear ridicule here.
"Okay, no kidding, you also said that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a public police department, so the police department should be most afraid of public security issues, but your Russian police are relatively corrupt now, and some small things will not hinder the career of the local supervisor!" Lin Ye said eloquently, "There must be no shortage of weapons and other things in your country, the Cold War has been fought for so many years, and the weapons produced are astronomical, so you can think of a way from this aspect." ”
"You said to find two gangster killers to kill that General Directorate of Internal Affairs? Lydia snorted coldly, shook her small brain, and said like a rattle, "At this time, I shot and killed, not to mention that the other party himself is the director of the General Bureau of Internal Affairs, at this time, kill the competitor, and others will not suspect my father?"
In Lydia's opinion, Lin Ye is still too young and naïve, and the level of relevant knowledge needs to be improved.
"Did I say that I killed someone? What kind of method is this? How low-end?" Lin Ye said in a low voice, "How difficult it is for such a high official as the director of the General Bureau of Internal Affairs, now follow my train of thought, and I will deduce it for you." ”
"First of all, your father is the Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of the Primorsky Territory, and the other party is the senior head of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs. The advantage is that your father is not the leader of the local area, and if something happens in the local area, he will definitely not find your father. ”
"Besides, there is a lot of weapons in your country, and it is not difficult to find explosives. Nakhodka is a local ice-free port, and there must be an abandoned arsenal left behind, and even if there are none, it is not difficult to find some simple explosives. This targets the local area, and if something happens, it won't be found anywhere else. ”
"It's okay to create a bombing and not let the other side squeeze the influence on the local area, anyway, your father's location is closer to the center of the government of the region, right? If you want to expand your influence, it's actually very simple, pick iconic buildings. ”
Once it comes to other countries, the forest with a bad stomach will be full of firepower, and he is not afraid of accidents, and he is not Russian, who believes that this trick was made by a Chinese?
"What kind of landmark?" Lydia suddenly felt that the boy had become so unfamiliar, the kind of deduction that implied excitement, and it was chilling to think about it.
Lin Ye pointed behind Lydia, and after the girl turned around, the red cross above the church came into view, and she heard the voice of the boy behind her again, "There was an accident in Beslan last month, right? If the local Chechens are not easy to find, or the matter is too big to finish, it is okay to find a random minority to come out and lie down with a gun, aren't there many Central Asians in your country?"
