Chapter 128: Whereabouts unknown
Li Qingcang saw that someone opened the window to ask and hurriedly agreed, but his heart was already half cold, it stands to reason that if Xiao Yu'er is inside, she will definitely be able to hear her voice, if she hears her voice, she will definitely open the window to watch, now since it is not Xiao Yu'er who opened the window, there is a chance that she will not be here.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little gloomy, and when I saw that the Chinese man was still waiting at the window, he said, "Yes! Mr. Ambassador, I am Chinese, I came here to find a friend of mine, can you let me in? ”
The man looked around and saw that there were only the two of them in front of the embassy, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask someone to open the door for you," and closed the window.
Li Qingcang smiled bitterly at the rabbit and said, "Rabbit, it seems that my friend has little hope here. ”
The rabbit nodded and said, "I guess so, if your friend is here, your voice just now is like thunder, and your friend is inside!" Will definitely open the window and come out to have a look.
Li Qingcang nodded yes and said, "Since I have arrived here, I have to go in and ask, in case someone here knows the whereabouts of my friend!" ”
The rabbit nodded and said, "That's nature, it's better to go in and ask." ”
A moment later, a young man wearing glasses walked out of the building, held the key in his hand, opened the iron door, and said to the two: "Come in first!" ”
Li Qingcang and the rabbit hurriedly walked in, and after the young man reflexively closed the iron door, he led the two of them towards the embassy building, and asked as he went, "What's your name?" Who to find here? ”
Li Qingcang replied: "My name is Li Qingcang, I came here to find a friend of mine, her name is Hai Ruyu, she came from China not long ago, they are a non-governmental cultural exchange group, I don't know if you have any impression?" ”
The young man replied: "I have a little impression that not long ago there was indeed a domestic cultural team to come to Alaja, but it was privately invited by a more prestigious Chinese Mr. Hu here, this Mr. Hu has a lot of industries here, this year he has set up several schools in the local area, in order to promote local education, so he invited teachers from some well-known colleges and universities in China to come and exchange." At that time, Ambassador Zhou also attended the welcome dinner. ”
Li Qingcang was overjoyed when he heard this: "Then where is this exchange group now?" Did You Know? ”
The young man shook his head and said: "I'm just a secretary, you have to ask Mr. Ambassador for the specific situation, the situation here is very unstable now, and most of the embassy staff have gone out to help evacuate overseas Chinese." There aren't many people in the embassy, how did you get here? Didn't those armies on the road rob you? ”
Li Qingcang pointed at the rabbit and said, "This friend of mine has some connections here, thanks to him, no one has trouble us along the way!" ”
The young man glanced at the rabbit and said, "Oh! He said no more.
The two of them walked straight into the embassy and came to the ambassador's room. The man who had just opened the window was sitting behind his desk waiting for the two of them.
The young man who took them upstairs introduced: "This is our Ambassador Zhou, and then he took two cups to the side to make tea." ”
Li Qingcang stepped forward and greeted: "Your Excellency, Ambassador, hello! ......" then crackled and told the ambassador why he had come here.
After hearing this, Ambassador Zhou said: "There is indeed such a thing, I also participated in the welcome banquet, but it is not a coincidence that they came, there was a war just after they came, I still have a list of banquet personnel here, Xiao Zhang, you go to the reference room to bring the list of banquet personnel a few days ago, and show this Mr. Li if there are any of his friends in it?" ”
After Secretary Zhang brought tea to the two, he went to the reference room to find the file, and after a while, he walked in with a brown paper bag and handed it to Ambassador Zhou.
Ambassador Zhou took out the file and looked at it a few times, handed it to Li Qingcang and said: "There is indeed this name, I have a vague impression, it seems to be a history teacher at Nanjing University, a very beautiful little girl, who is she?" Lad. ”
As soon as Li Qingcang saw Hai Ruyu's three words, his heart suddenly became excited, and he replied: "It's my girlfriend, Your Excellency the Ambassador." ”
The ambassador smiled knowingly and said, "Not bad! Young man, traveling thousands of miles to save your girlfriend, this friendship is really priceless, I'll help you call and ask, see where she is? ”
Li Qingcang hurriedly thanked him. The ambassador waved his hand and said, "Don't rush to thank you just yet!" I stayed here to coordinate the relationship between all parties and ensure the safety of Chinese citizens overseas, which is my duty.
"Now all the communications here are paralyzed, Mr. Hu has a good relationship with King Azulu, after Gorba occupied Alaja, as a businessman close to the king and the Ruba people, it is difficult for him to be alone no matter how long he is good at dancing! I don't know if his phone number can be reached, but unfortunately our consulate has limited personnel, and most of them have gone to the construction site to organize the evacuation of overseas Chinese, otherwise I would have to send someone to find them. ”
After speaking, he took out a satellite phone from the drawer and began to dial, but the prompt tone that came after dialing was the message that the other party had turned off the phone.
When Li Qingcang saw that the phone was not working, his heart became more and more anxious, and he asked: "Could it be that after the war, the people of the cultural exchange group did not call you for help?" Your Excellency Ambassador! ”
Ambassador Zhou shook his head helplessly and said, "I didn't receive a call for help from them!" Besides, now the communication is paralyzed, and the embassy's public phone cannot be dialed, only the satellite phone can still be used, this is my private number, and not many people know about it, so even if I call, I can't receive it.
"But I think Mr. Hu should be able to keep them safe! After all, these people are his guests, he has been operating here for many years, his personal assets may be lost, and his life safety will not be a big problem! ”
Seeing that this was the case here, Li Qingcang opened his mouth and said, "In that case, please tell me Mr. Hu's address and phone number, and I will find someone myself." ”
Ambassador Zhou said with some hesitation: "You just look for it, it's chaotic outside, it's very unsafe, or you stay here, I'll find a way to help you get in touch!" ”
Li Qingcang shook his head and said: "Thank you, Your Excellency, I am anxious now, as for personal safety, you don't have to worry, I have a way to solve it!" ”
Seeing that he was resolute, Ambassador Zhou no longer dissuaded him, and after writing down Mr. Hu's address and satellite phone number in English on a note, he thought about it and wrote down his satellite phone number, saying: "If you have any difficulties, when you can make a call, you can call me and I will try my best to help you." ”
Li Qingcang took the note, and also left his satellite phone to Mr. Ambassador, and then said: "This is my phone, if you have any news here, please notify me immediately, please!" Mr. Ambassador. ”
Naturally, Ambassador Zhou was full of promises. Li Qingcang then thanked Mr. Ambassador and Secretary Zhang, and then got up with the rabbit to say goodbye.
Outside the embassy door when the two of them left, Li Qingcang said: "Rabbit, I need you to help me get a pass and a car now, and I will solve the rest by myself." ”
As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of dollars from his backpack and handed them to the rabbit. The rabbit hurriedly blocked the banknote handed over by Li Qingcang and said: "What are you kidding, you are the boss's friend, that is, my friend, I am ashamed that I can't accompany you to find someone, the pass and the car are trivial, how can I collect your money, put it away!" Don't you see me as a friend! ”
Li Qingcang saw that he was serious, so he no longer insisted, patted the rabbit on the shoulder and said, "Then thank you!" Brothers. ”
After the two got into the car, the rabbit took out the phone and began to ask someone to prepare things, and then drove to pick it up. On the way, Li Qingcang took out the note and asked the rabbit if he knew the address above? The rabbit glanced at it and said, "Oriental Hotel, it's a little far from here." You're going to go there and find someone, aren't you? "It seems that the reputation of this hotel is not small.
Because Li Qingcang and Ambassador Zhou communicate entirely in Chinese in the embassy, the rabbit can only speak English and Russian as well as some local languages of Nijalia, but he does not know anything about Chinese. That's why I asked!
Li Qingcang nodded and said, "Yes, I'm going to go there to find someone now." ”
The rabbit asked, "What else do you need?" Do you want weapons, there is a shortage of soldiers here, I am doing this business, don't be polite to me! ”
Li Qingcang replied: "It should be enough!" Thinking that I would be separated from the rabbit later, I was still a little more prepared in this unfamiliar place, and I was the first to strike in case of emergencies, so I opened my backpack and began to assemble my own weapons.
The rabbit is also an expert in weapons, and when he saw Li Qingcang's equipment, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he praised from the bottom of his heart: "Brother, you are all high-end goods, good guy, G3/SG1 even sniper, and it is also modified, interceptor body armor, this is what the US Army has just begun to equip, P229, knife."
"Not bad! With this preparation, those militiamen should have nothing to do with you! You're going to drive my pickup truck later, and you'll be loading a few barrels of gasoline with it, and if your girlfriend isn't in Araja right now, you're going to look for it, and you'll be out of the city and you'll be in the desolate African savannah. ”
Li Qingcang nodded in agreement, and the rabbit introduced him to some precautions here along the way, while driving, he soon came to a private house, and the rabbit asked Li Qingcang to wait in the car, and then got out of the car and entered the room.
After a while, he walked out with a pass and a map, and then said to Li Qingcang to invite him to eat something.
Li Qingcang said when he heard it: "I'm free of eating, I'm not in the mood now, I just want to find my girlfriend as soon as possible, and then I will have a good drink with you at that time!" ”
After hearing this, the rabbit handed the things to Li Qingcang and said, "Since you are in a hurry, forget it, I can't find any good place to eat in this environment now, I'm really embarrassed!" I have too much to do now, and I can only rely on you in the future, brother! I wish you to find your girlfriend soon, and I will have a few drinks with you then! ”
Li Qingcang held the rabbit's hand and said, "Thank you so much for your help!" I understand, it's your prime time, you go about your business! I'll take care of the rest. I'll call you then! Brothers. ”
After speaking, he waved goodbye to the rabbit, then started the car and galloped towards Mr. Hu's hotel.
