After the Cold War, the way of sending spies became more sophisticated and cautious.

The method of directly sending trained people into the core of the other side has proved to be too complicated and expensive, and once such a spy *** has brought far more harm to the country's image than the value of the information he has gathered, so, except in extremely special circumstances, the intelligence agencies have in fact stopped using this method. Perhaps, star spies like Sorge will still appear, but in the current intelligence work, the role they can play is extremely limited, and the probability of appearing has become infinitely close to zero.

The main task of espionage is to collect intelligence, but with the development of information 'exchange' technology, the limitations of espionage in the traditional sense have become more and more obvious, so the content of espionage work has gradually taken on new content. The "Eurostar Project" is a new attempt, and it has been proven that although such an intelligence network is small in scale, it can play a very big role, and the security of the intelligence agents themselves is guaranteed to the greatest extent. For a spy, once he is suspected by the counterintelligence agency, then the chance of escaping will become very slim, and once he falls into the hands of the counterintelligence agency, then it is only a matter of time before he confesses completely.

The nature of espionage has become more and more towards the full integration of various professions and skills rather than a single effort, which is one of the reasons why all intelligence agencies are getting bigger and bigger. Espionage is incompatible at any level with the whole world of jurisprudence and morality, but no country's government would commit itself to renunciating such an act.

"It's not that we don't believe in human 'sex,' we just don't believe in ourselves."

Someone once described espionage work in this way, and spoke in a tone with mixed feelings.

Only the person in charge of the "European Star Project" is a real spy, and the others are hired non-professionals. These bribed laymen have been told that the only problem they need to 'worry about' is how to 'hand in' their information without being discovered. The person in charge of the intelligence does not have face-to-face contact with these non-specialists during the entire process, and the person in charge and the hired non-experts did not know each other at all, and they mean nothing more than addresses and names to each other, which are completely fictitious. The person in charge is like a logistics delivery center, he only knows how to pack and send it, but he doesn't know who and where the goods come from, or even who and where they are delivered. In this way, even if one of them goes wrong, it will not affect the entire work process.

Judging by the current situation, the approach of the "oracle" only stopped the work of the French "stars" without destroying the entire intelligence network, so the program can be restarted at any time as long as a new person in charge is found. All indications are that Sophie is the best candidate at the moment, and her only problem is that her professional qualities need to be improved.

An Nianrong decided to continue using Sophie, and she only needed to confirm with Luo 'Men' again.

When the news of the successful escape of the military supplies arrived, she was already standing in the hall of the theater in full costume, waiting to enter like everyone else. Chu Jiangnan, who was wearing an evening dress, talked and laughed with the people he knew well, so that others could not notice An Nianrong's anxiety and reluctance in her smile. An Nianrong is not unaware of the need for these empty 'holes' and hypocritical conversations, but she just can't make the same empty 'hole' and hypocritical expressions, fortunately, her beauty and temperament are enough to hide the depression in her expression, just like Chu Jiangnan said, as long as she keeps smiling, it is enough to touch everyone's heartstrings.

An Nianrong felt that the muscles on her face had stiffened. She wished it did, so that the smile would automatically remain on her face, and she would just roll her eyes to indicate that she was still alive. But she also found that beauty, which had always made her disdainful, came in handy at this time: people were unusually tolerant of unusual beauty. Except for those 'lustful', 'fascinated' and 'fan' gazes, basically no one made her feel uncomfortable.

Chu Jiangnan was in a good mood.

Whether it is vassal elegance or heartfelt love, people who come to the concert generally have unusual taste, and Chu Jiangnan is very sure of this. Taste comes from a person's understanding of life and the accumulation of their own cultivation, and they can't pretend to come. A taxi driver may be crazy about symphony, but a group of taxi drivers who have this hobby can make it seem like the world is starting to twist. It's not a question of high or low, but everyone does get what he deserves in his rightful place. Isn't that what society does? Only real fools and people with ulterior motives would think that the responsibility of society is to make everyone's life better, but Chu Jiangnan said that if everyone can come to the concert, then this society is the worst society.

An Nianrong beside him made him feel very proud.

Dressed in evening clothes, she simply 'shot' with four rays, "as if she was like a light cloud covering the moon, and fluttering like a flowing wind and snow." Looking at it from afar, it is as bright as the sun rising to the morning glow; Forced to observe it, it burned like a 'wave'. These are the words that Chu Jiangnan thinks of every time he sees An Nianrong, and when he doesn't see An Nianrong, what he thinks of is "Slim and heartfelt, cultivate the shortness and fit." If the shoulders are cut, the waist is as plain. Neck stretch show, Hao quality is 'dew'. Fangze has no addition, lead Huafu Yu. ”

He had never been so crazy as a 'woman'. Not only him, but even the 'female' who sees An Nianrong will be crazy, crazy because of jealousy. This 'woman' will be your wife, so you have to act like a winner. Thinking of this, Chu Jiangnan couldn't help but look at the beautiful 'girl' beside him again.

An Nianrong didn't notice Chu Jiangnan's affectionate gaze, but kept 'kneading' the evening handbag in her hand that matched the evening clothes. In fact, there is only a mirror and a tube of lipstick in this bag, but An Nianrong still manages to stuff her phone in, although this is not in line with tonight's etiquette. Not being able to put a pistol in already made her feel very uncomfortable, and she would rather not go to this concert without a mobile phone, even if it was a concert specially prepared for An Xiaorong.

When the SMS signal rang, An Nianrong found that the problem was coming. It's okay to shove the phone in, but it's not as easy to take it out, and the 'fine' groomed nails don't allow her to push too hard. She took two quick steps and beckoned to Shi Bao, who was standing not far away, and Shi Bao, who was also wearing an evening dress, walked over quickly, took out a 'delicate' folding knife from his waist, and gently cut a cut on the bag. An Nianrong impatiently threw the bag to Shi Bao and stepped aside to check the text message.

"The long-legged giant is drinking soup."

This is the code word for the completion of the operation, from the Hong Kong Operations Command Center.

A stone in An Nianrong's heart fell to the ground. Before she could get excited, the phone rang again, this was Mo Xinwei. Of course, he would invite An Nianrong to meet as soon as possible, but the happy An Nianrong didn't want to put this night on business. She threw the phone to Shi Bao, signaling that she didn't want to answer the call, and Shi Bao willingly put the phone away.

At this time, a person with a big bath towel wrapped his head walked quickly towards An Nianrong from another direction, Yang Falcon blocked in front of this person without a trace, and someone picked up the corner of the bath towel to let him see his face clearly, and Yang Falcon smiled and got out of the way. It turned out that An Xiaorong, who had not yet put on makeup, ran out of the backstage.

"Do you want to see Chu Tianshu?" An Xiaorong excitedly grabbed her sister's arm. "She was going to be working with me to prepare for this concert, but she decided to get on the plane at the last minute, and if you don't meet her now, you'll have to wait a long time."

An Nianrong hesitated. Chu Tianshu is not a Chinese citizen now, An Nianrong should avoid any contact with her in 'private' situations, and in fact, she does not want to know this pianist.

"There's still a chance in the future." An Nianrong pinched her sister's face. "I don't study with her, it's okay if we don't meet each other."

"You're all my closest people, and people want you to get to know each other." An Xiaorong pursed her lips and made an exaggerated coquettish expression. "An Nianrong, you always disappoint me like this, it's so disappointing to me."

"It's not the first time I've let you down, I don't care." An Nianrong simply put her hands together and gently pinched An Xiaorong's pink face and pulled it up and down. "I'm already giving you face when I come to your concert."

An Xiaorong angrily opened her hand. "The false eyelash 'hair' is going to be 'gone' for you, I hate it."

Chu Jiangnan next to him coughed, and An Nianrong realized her gaffe and had no choice but to let go of her sister.

"Wait a minute, we'll sit in the front row, An Xiaorong, don't play it. I haven't looked at the schedule yet, is it still the beginning of Tchaikov's Piano Concerto No. 1 today? "Chu Jiangnan was not so restrained when he was with An Xiaorong." Or is it Liszt? ”

"Chu Tianshu won't allow me to play these tunes again." An Xiaorong stuck out her tongue. "She said I was too technical and too expressive, so you couldn't hear these difficult pieces today. Okay, I'll have to go back to the backstage and won't tell you. ”

An Xiaorong almost trotted back to the backstage.

"I don't know what she learned from Chu Tianshu, but she already has all of Chu Tianshu's bad 'faults', and she has to run out before the performance starts." Chu Jiangnan shook his head disappreciatively. "I kind of regret finding this teacher for her now."

"I think Xiao Rong is much bolder than before, she never introduced me to anyone else before." An Nianrong looked thoughtfully at her sister's back. "You know what? How long has she known this Chu Tianshu, and she has regarded her as her closest person? Chu Tianshu really has a way. ”

"Musicians are very open-minded, and it's nothing new to be familiar at first sight." Chu Jiangnan smiled. "But I also think that Xiao Rong is more confident than before. If I'm right, you'll be able to hear it later. ”

An Nianrong smiled. "I don't have much appreciation for music, I'm just with you."

Chu Jiangnan's heart was hot, and he couldn't help but hold An Nianrong's elbow. "Nian Rong, thank you for being with me. I know you're busy at work, so I hope it will help you relax a bit and feel better when you work. ”

"I'm already relaxing right now." An Nianrong smiled and put Chu Jiangnan's arm on her shoulder. "Although I don't understand music, I already feel very comfortable knowing that you and Xiao Rong are by my side. We're going to be there again in the future, and I think I should get used to it. ”

Two people entered the arena side by side.

Shi Bao, who was standing in the hall, quietly pulled off his bow tie and let out a long breath. Yang Falcon didn't make any movements, but he could see that this outfit also made him very uncomfortable, insisting on wearing the pistol on the back of the waist made him have to keep a 'straight' posture for a long time, and Shi Bao's pistol was hidden at the ankle bone, so he was much more relaxed.

After An Nianrong entered the hall, their work was over.

"Go out and 'smoke' a cigarette?" Shi Bao 'touched' a pack of cigarettes from his 'trousers' pocket and shook it in front of Yang Falcon. "This kind of occasion always makes me nervous."

"That's right, it's the hardest place to control." Yang agreed. "In the past, Director An would not have come to such a place, but it will be difficult to say in the future."

Walking out of the theater, Shi Bao lit a cigarette and took a long puff, then turned his head to look at Yang Falcon.

"Lao Yang, you are good. In our team, it's not uncommon for people to go back to where they were when something happens like that, and for that reason, you know, so I'm very impressed with your decision. ”

Yang Falcon also lit a cigarette, and the expression on his face was complicated.

"I know, that's why you were sent here, right? I also know that after this kind of incident, they are worried that I will not be able to view the relationship between me and the protected person correctly, and if it were not for Director An's insistence, I would not have returned to this position. So they sent you? ”

Shi Bao nodded.

This is the principle of their protection work, and once they have experienced a similar danger for a protected person, in principle they will not return to the protected person, because of the subtle changes in the feelings between the two people that affect the subsequent interaction. According to the correct rules, Yang Falcon should not come back, but An Nianrong's request is more valued.

As an expert in conservation work, Shi Bao could see that Yang Falcon had an unusual affection for the protection target, but at the same time, he also knew that Yang Falcon was a 'colorful' security guard, so he didn't want to point this out, but he also had to let Yang Falcon know about another thing.

"There is another reason why the above sent me, that is, Director An's current situation is indeed very dangerous." Shi Bao 'smoked' the cigarette to the end in one breath, and then pressed it out on the trash can next to him. "We've got information that another assassination operation about her is underway, but so far we have very limited information, which means that it could happen anytime and anywhere, so I want to make sure you're sure there's nothing wrong with you?"

Yang Falcon also extinguished the cigarette, and then looked at Shi Bao, his expression was very serious.

"I'm absolutely sure."
