It is unknown why this old guy was discharged from the hospital, but one thing is certain, that is, he is no longer in danger, everything is normal, and the rest may be just some flesh wounds. However, he made a fuss, and the news from Berlin showed that the people at the Berlin station did not discharge him from the hospital as he requested, but still let him stay in the hospital, and it was said that he would stay for at least a week.

As soon as we entered Germany, we headed north, stopping at the German city of Frankfurt, near the Polish border, which was not far from Berlin, where we could hide ourselves, and at any time we could go to Berlin to attack the old fellow, and more importantly, if necessary, it was convenient to escape from Germany and enter Poland.

In Frankfurt, it is much more comfortable than in the library in Vienna. Because at least there are a lot of practical furniture in the place where we are staying now, such as sofas, and a bed to sleep in, and the group of people D is all workaholics, basically they don't need beds, most of them just lean on the sofa and stare at one or two disappears, so this bed is naturally occupied by me.

Here, the busiest is estimated to be D. I don't know much about his organization, but judging from what D does, he should have a good position in this organization, and if you compare it from another angle, he is like the chameleon mentioned in the material we found about Project 90, and he is a powerful character who can take charge of himself.

He was in the middle of the command and coordination, not only keeping an eye on the situation in the Berlin hospital, but also asking from time to time to find that Phil in England? Smalling, now he has to check and correct what his companions have sorted out every day. He barely stopped, but he insisted on taking me out every day to find something to eat, or a restaurant, which seemed to be his way of relaxing, and the only moment that made him feel relaxed.

We didn't stay in Frankfurt for long, less than three days when we were full. It's not that there's any danger or a situation that doesn't work against us, but that D's guy was there in England, and D and I were ready to leave for England. At the same time, the materials brought from Vienna are almost sorted out, and there is nothing special to discover, because there are too many things missing in the middle, and the feeling is like a leopard in a tube or a blind man touching an elephant, what he sees is a part, and there is no complete and direct evidence.

Can you find Phil? Smalling, let me finally see a new hope. But then D's words disappointed me again, because he told me that the name was Fei'er? The Smolin guy isn't in good shape at the moment, and he's sane. He has mental problems, many times which are said to be god-like, and he is now being hospitalized in a Liverpool hospital.

Although the man was having mental problems, D and I decided to check out the guy. First of all, there was nothing to be done in Germany at the moment, Mr. Ullmann was still in the hospital, and Berlin was still heavily guarded. We have to continue to wait for our chance. What's more, mental problems don't necessarily mean that you can't ask something, you have to see everything, try it to know.

So we split up in two ways, and the guy who had been our driver was going to follow D and me to England. Others, on the other hand, left with the information they had put together. I don't know exactly where I'm going, and D didn't say.

I don't have to worry about how to get to Liverpool in the UK in a concealed way, and they will naturally have arrangements. I am very relieved about this, it seems to me that they have their own network and channels here, and if they are simply in terms of power, they are much stronger than the old guy Younis, and they are only better than Krzhakov.

After leaving Frankfurt, we continued north to Hamburg, where we boarded a cargo ship and followed the Labem River to a place called Cuxhamn on the North Sea. Here we boarded a freighter that was going to sea, but it wasn't going to England, and D told me that the freighter was going to take us to France, where we would disembark and go from France to England through the Channel Tunnel.

"How's that guy doing? Can you still communicate normally? "On the freighter, because we don't move around casually, we can only stay in the cabin, and the only way we can pass the time is to chat except for rest, and D and I can only talk about what we will do next, after all, talk about other things, he has too many secrets, and he doesn't want me to know, so often we don't talk a few words and enter a dead end.

"You've asked this question many times. Are you starting to forget? That's just when I arrived in the UK, and I will help you see a doctor. D said impatiently.

"I mean, a person with mental problems, can you believe what he says? What seems to be a normal communication may be far from the truth, and it is all conjured up by him because of mental problems. The key is that you can't simply see this abnormality, because he's telling the truth, he's telling the truth. I said.

When D heard me say this, he looked at me helplessly and said, "What can I do then?" Even so, you have to try. It doesn't matter if it's half-truths and half-truths, as long as there is the truth, it's up to us how we distinguish them. Also, it's up to you to ask. ”

"Me?" I looked at him in surprise, "You should be better suited than me in this regard, right?" ”

"Nope. Others may be more suitable for me than you. But this person I think about it, you are more suitable than me. D said with certainty.

"Why? Just because I can speak Russian? I asked.

"Nope." D waved his hand, "It's not just that. You've been working for the 17th game for so long, and you know better than I do about the way the Russians do, and you know a little bit about their way of thinking, their tone of voice, and their way of doing things. Knowing how they threaten a talent is most effective. So you're more suitable than me. ”

"It's not... I understand, so doesn't that guy know better? I asked, "I don't have much confidence to deal with such an old agent." Besides, what do I ask? Just ask directly? ”

"Think for yourself. Think about what your boss would do. Haven't you seen him do something like this before? Coercion and temptation, this shouldn't be possible, right? D asked.

"I've seen it... As I spoke, I remembered what the old guy looked like in the United States and in Ukraine, "But does this work?" I can deal with such an old spy by imitating it? ”

"Don't think it's so complicated." D said and smiled, "First of all, we're dealing with a psychopath, then a spy, and a spy who has been retired for many years. Come to think of it, in my opinion, mental illness is the biggest problem we face. ”

"Okay... But I'm even less experienced in dealing with mentally ill people? I said helplessly.
