"Leningrad Air Traffic Control Agency? Where did a business jet that left Tarmac 3 last night go? What the? Don't have this plane? No way? I have conclusive evidence that there was indeed a plane that left the third tarmac at 9:30 p.m. yesterday night, and you can't possibly have this plane on your flight record......" Baranikov angrily complained to the staff of the Leningrad Air Traffic Control Bureau.

"If you don't believe me, come and see for yourself! I don't know where you heard about it, but I can tell you with certainty that there was never such a plane. The person from the air traffic control bureau replied unceremoniously, what if the other party is the KGB, what era is it now, the era of the KGB is long gone. The ATC is under no obligation to cooperate with the KGB's unreasonable demands.

Since the landing time of the plane on Red Square, the Soviet Union has invested a huge amount of money, and the supposedly impenetrable western air defense network has completely become an international joke. Gorbachev no longer wanted to believe the nonsense of the military and intelligence services. Shortly after the Red Square period, the heads of the Soviet Ministry of Defense and the KGB resigned, and their successors were not recognized as good leaders in military or intelligence work, but rather mediocre people who were suddenly promoted.

Gorbachev did this in order to weaken the power of the military and the KGB, because the top officials of these two departments were promoted from among the lowest-ranking deputy ministerial-level cadres, so they naturally did not have the right to enter the Politburo, and Gorbachev used this hand to expel the forces of the KGB and the Ministry of Defense from the Politburo. From then on, the treatment of the KGB military began to deteriorate dramatically.

With the end of the war in Afghanistan and the loss of leadership in Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union's foreign military presence and foreign intelligence agencies became bloated, and the KGB and the Ministry of Defense had to begin their own painful process of slimming down due to the drastic reduction in operations and cuts in funding.

Originally, four new-generation Marshal Kuznetsov-class aircraft carriers were used by Seryosha to trade with Brazil, India, China, and Argentina, and a large number of ships of the Pacific Fleet were dismantled and converted into distant-water fishing vessels. The large number of tanks and armored combat vehicles stockpiled to cope with NATO's offensive were also cleared by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, some were sold to Iraq in exchange for oil, and some were dismantled and converted into agricultural machinery or construction machinery. The marshals of the Ministry of Defense were bitter about this, but they could not say a word about Seryosha's request. Because the troops who have been withdrawn from Eastern Europe and Afghanistan are now working on the economic projects organized by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.

The same is true for the KGB, which in the past was one of the elite in a million. But now, when the Soviet Union stopped expanding abroad, they became dispensable.

Elites returning from Eastern Europe, with excellent foreign language skills and many years of experience living abroad, it is not difficult for those who have returned from Eastern Europe to find a job in the foreign trade industry at the Mediterranean Trading Company. But some of the KGB were so old that there were few suitable positions for them, whether in private companies or other state-owned enterprises, and their lives fell from heaven to hell all at once.

Who made this country what it is today, of course, are the moths who infringed on the interests of the people and the country. As long as Baranikov is still in the KGB, he will not give up his efforts. Air traffic control bureau not cooperates? So what, and the military! As long as it takes off and records, it can't escape the military's radar, and those people want to hide the fact that this flight exists, how can it be so simple?

"Hey, is it the Western Air Defense Command of the Ministry of Defense? I am the head of the internal intelligence service of the KGB, and I would like to know about the plane that took off from the Leningrad airport at 9:30 p.m. yesterday. Yes, all of them! Please give me this report as soon as possible. Yes, it's important...... "Since such a unit as the Air Traffic Control does not take the KGB into account, then what about the Ministry of Defense?" They are now brothers and sisters with the KGB, so will they also perfunctory the KGB?

Baranikov quickly got his hands on the radar record for the night, and from it, he got the information he wanted almost effortlessly!

"Hey, Gorky Bureau? I want you to investigate, there is a business plane landed at the airport in Gorky yesterday, I want you to take a look, to see if this plane is parked in a hangar somewhere, yes, I just want to check, don't make a public announcement! Baranikov cautiously got in touch with the Gorky Bureau, and after he sent instructions to the other party to ask for help, the Gorky Branch immediately took the order from the headquarters as a big deal.

It is impossible for such a large plane to disappear out of thin air, and Seryosha was afraid that the disappearance of a bunch of internationally renowned people from Leningrad would attract the attention of those who care, so he deliberately erased the flight records of these planes from the flight records of the Leningrad Air Traffic Control Bureau. But Baranikov's insistence was something that Seryosha did not expect. Seryosha did not yet have the ability to command the western air defense network of the Soviet Union to serve himself, of course, if he really ordered the Ministry of Defense to do so, it would be an unprovoked fire!

The Gorky bureau quickly replied to Baranikov's translation, which Baranikov could hardly believe. The Gorky sub-bureau confessed that eight planes landed on the runway of Gorky Airport that night, and now these planes are under strict supervision and are blocked in the hangar of Gorky Airport.

After Baranikov hung up, a long-lost smile appeared on his face, this time he would not let the cunning prey run away again.

Baranikov left Dzerzhinsky Square 11 almost without thinking, and he booked a plane to Gorky as soon as possible. Then I didn't even have time to prepare my luggage, so I rushed directly to the Moscow airport. He wanted to fly to Gorky right now, find the planes, and hide them in the hangar, and he wanted to see who had the energy to summon the Italian mafia godfather to the Soviet Union. By the way, it seems that ten years ago, an Italian mafia heavyweight died in Gorky, is it all a coincidence?

Baranikov's brain had never been so active, and on the way to the airport, Baranikov was constantly imagining what was going on. He was really curious about what kind of people were controlling this hand-eye-to-eye organization.
