Chapter XXXVIII
The sister-in-law opened the door, and it was actually the grandfather who knocked on the door.
The old man didn't speak after entering the house on crutches, and walked into the back room with one hand behind his waist without looking back, and then an unquestionable voice came: "Xiao Wu, you come with me!" ”
Seeing his grandfather's unhappy face, Chen Xu vaguely guessed something, and exchanged a look with his family that I didn't know anything, and then put down the teacup in his hand and got up from the sofa and walked in.
Grandpa was already sitting on the bed in his small bedroom waiting for him, and after entering the house, he closed the door at Grandpa's signal.
"Tell me honestly, where do you want to go this time? Beijing told me that there was no confidential meeting to be held at all. "Grandpa's face is not good, he knows that his grandson went to study in the Soviet Union for five years, and he doesn't know what skills he has learned, and he seems to be unable to control him anymore.
Since grandpa is willing to ask in private, it means that there is still a chance to explain, grandpa is a veteran, Chen Xu didn't dare to hide it and said directly: "The Japanese side gave me the news of the Soviet spy leader 'Ivan', this person's real name is Beria, he killed Lao Zhong in front of me at the beginning, and now I want to go abroad to find this person to avenge Lao Zhong." ”
"Hmmm! I'm sure you have the ability to do this, and the MIA told me that when the Japanese police found you in the villa, the house and garden were littered with the bodies of Soviet agents, almost all of whom had been shot in the head. Your marksmanship is so accurate, I believe you are sure, but you must pay attention to your own safety. ”
Grandpa is a veteran in the end, and he also agrees with this idea of revenge, especially an old worker like Zhong Jian, who has followed him to work in the factory for almost his whole life, and was shot to death by someone for unknown reasons, he must not be able to swallow this breath. Since his grandson wants to take revenge, and has the ability to take revenge, then there is no reason why he should not support it.
"You brought Zhong Siyang with you? Still need help? If you want a gun, grandpa can help you get ready. The old man gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice.
"The big man inherited his grandfather's kung fu and preserves himself, and if he has the opportunity, I hope he can kill the enemy with his own hands. As for the weapon, I don't have to worry about it, I have my own way to prepare it after I go abroad. Chen Xu nodded, grandpa's support made him have no worries, he could rest assured that he could toss abroad, and if he encountered difficulties, he might be able to get the support of the military intelligence bureau by making a phone call.
"Hmmm! Since you have a plan, I won't interfere. It's just that you must pay attention to safety, revenge will come in the future, and there will be opportunities in the future, so don't risk losing your life for a while. ”
Grandpa stood up, although he agreed to Chen Xu's actions, he was still uneasy in his heart, after all, the head of the Soviet secret service did not eat dry food, and it must be extremely dangerous for his grandson to fight with them.
"I'm not a novice in the industry, your old man has 10,000 hearts, if things don't work out, I won't do it." Chen Xu stepped forward to support his grandfather and made a guarantee.
"Get out! I'll send you ......"
While speaking, the grandfather and grandson walked out of the small bedroom, and the family was about to send Chen Xu to the airport.
In order to hide from his family, Chen Xu tried his best to take a plane to Beijing in front of everyone. Zhong Siyang took a plane for the first time in his life, and he always felt stuffy in the cabin, and he was restless all the way, and he was relieved until he got off the plane.
The two came to Beijing quietly, and they were not in a hurry to leave, Chen Xu took Zhong Siyang to have a good time around the Forbidden City. Two days later, I took a plane to Kunming, where I actually boarded an international flight to Kabul, Afghanistan.
Afghanistan was in the most turbulent period at this time, and in a few months, the Soviet army would rush headlong into the cemetery of empires, laying the groundwork for its own collapse. The war also brought Afghanistan's industry and agriculture to its knees, beginning the next 30 years of misery.
Afghanistan is still open, foreigners can enter freely, and the capital, Kabul, has become a dueling ground for intelligence agencies, and the Soviets are undoubtedly the biggest force in preparing the army for advance.
Now, if you go directly to India, you may not be able to catch Beria's whereabouts, and in Kabul, where Soviet intelligence forces are mainly operated, you may be able to catch a clue.
The propeller passenger plane landed at the airport in Kabul, and all the two saw was a runway, next to a lone control tower, and there were only a few propeller passenger planes parked in the airport, and the flow of people was sparse.
Zhong Siyang was too big to sit on a motorcycle, so Chen Xu had to hire a donkey cart, and the two sat on the cart and let the donkey pull it to Kabul city.
Kabul is still a little cold at this time, but the weather is nice and the air is fresh. Sitting on the donkey cart and shuttling on the road between the mountain road and the hills, from time to time you can also see other donkey carts coming from the opposite side, leisurely and very comfortable.
At this time, Kabul has not yet been devastated by the war, although the houses are low, it still has a modern urban feel, and it is almost night, and the surrounding streets are already brightly lit, and even the passing parks are brightly lit. Compared with the later Kabul, which was first ravaged by the Soviet army for ten years, and then bombed back to the Stone Age by the American army, it is completely two worlds.
I took the bus and found a hotel near the city center, booked a double suite, and after the two of them checked in, they finally had a chance to rest after a long journey.
"Director, when are we going to find that Beria!" Before the war, Kabul was much more developed than Xiangping, and Zhong Siyang came abroad for the first time, so he walked around the room, especially like to stand on the balcony and watch the people and cars on the street below.
"No hurry! When we get rested first, we will look for him on the street, Beria is no matter how cunning he is, he is also a member of the KGB intelligence system, as long as we find a clue in this intelligence system, we can always catch him. ”
Chen Xu lay on the bed, stretched his waist, looked at the sunset outside the window, and then said: "Let's go to a restaurant on the street to have a good meal later, and then walk around to see if we can find something." ”
Zhong Siyang couldn't even speak English, and he was blind when he went abroad, so he could only listen to Chen Xu's arrangement.
In the middle of the night, after the introduction of the hotel manager, Chen Xu took the big man one after the other to the restaurant next to the nearby intersection to finish eating. Directly opposite the window on the second floor of this restaurant is the door of a bar. According to the hotel manager, the restaurant was filled with Soviet people, including many Soviet officers, every night.
Zhong Siyang didn't understand that Chen Xu was eating in this place to observe the old Maozi opposite, Chen Xu knew that this product had a large amount of food, so he ordered a full table of pilaf, beef, mutton, horse meat intestines, and flatbread on the menu, and this guy was not polite as soon as the dishes were served, he kept stuffing things into his mouth to eat.
Chen Xu chewed slowly, and ate the mutton with a pot of pilaf for more than half an hour, he knew that he might not be able to find the target tonight, so he was not in a hurry to finish it.
The leftovers on the table were removed, and the boss brought two glasses of milk and a plate of soft cakes with sweet fillings, and Zhong Siyang ate them one by one. Chen Xu felt a little overwhelmed, so he only tasted half a cake, but the milk was unexpectedly delicious.
Chen Xu's eyes never left the bar across the street during the meal, and the people who came in and out were under his surveillance.
After looking at his watch, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and the pedestrians on the street were gradually becoming scarce, and when Chen Xu was about to get up and go back to the hotel, he unexpectedly saw a familiar figure walking from the end of the street, and then entered the bar.
Chen Xu was not only familiar with Beria, but also knew many of his subordinates, most of whom were still very young and not veterans of a hundred battles in later generations. The person Chen Xu saw just now was one of Beria's main subordinates, "Beretski".
The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan was imminent, and for the Soviet Union, Afghanistan was a strategic location, so it had to be controlled. But for the Soviet army, Afghanistan is a big fat sheep, and the Soviet army is grinding its fists and waiting to rush in to make a windfall, so Beria, a cunning fox, will definitely send someone to get involved.
This Beretsky and Chen Xu really have an indissoluble bond, when Chen Xu received training and surrounded and annihilated Beria's gang. What was arranged for Chen Xu was to capture this Beretski, who was too young and lacked combat experience at that time, so he simply dealt with this veteran who had been polished in the Afghan war for ten years, and finally let him run away.
But now, on the contrary, Chen Xu is full of combat experience, and Beretssky at this time is still a rookie who has not participated in the war.
"Found the thread, get ready!" Chen Xu kicked Zhong Siyang, who was still struggling with a sheep bone on the other side of the table, to get him ready.
Maozi is generally born tall and tall, and this Belitsky is no exception, especially if he is still a soldier, Chen Xu can still control him if he has a gun, and he is estimated to be killed by him with a fist if he is unarmed. However, there is a more fierce guy beside him, Chen Xu is not worried that he will not be able to subdue him!
In order not to arouse suspicion, the two of them checked out and left early, then walked around the neighborhood to familiarize themselves with the environment, and finally hid in an alley where they could see the bar, slowly waiting for the target to appear.
"Would you like one for the big man?" After waiting boringly for almost two hours, I felt that the target was about to come out, Chen Xu usually doesn't smoke, only when he is nervous, he always likes to relieve his feelings one after another.
"I don't smoke!" Zhong Siyang squatted opposite and shook his head vigorously.
"I said that you are a manly husband, you don't smoke or drink, how can you please your wife in the future!" Chen Xu lit a cigarette for himself and took a hard puff.
"What does pleasing a wife have to do with smoking and drinking?" Zhong Siyang touched the back of his head and said strangely.
"Men don't have bad habits, they must be boring, how can women like it, you don't understand the truth that men are not bad and women don't love?" Chen Xu is an old fritter, although he himself has no female popularity, but it does not prevent him from theorizing a lot.
"Director, is that Mao Zi the one we want to catch?"
"Let me see......" Chen Xu turned his head to look at the opposite street, and sure enough, he saw three drunken old hairy men stumbling out of the restaurant, one of them was his target Beretski.
"Let's go! Let's go around to the front and find a place to intercept them! ”
Chen Xu threw the half-smoked cigarette on the ground and crushed it with the soles of his feet, then shrunk his head into his coat and quickly walked through a dark alley next to him.
