Chapter 508: Conditions
"Want to see me?!" Hou Dasheng's brows furrowed, and Dani smiled bitterly: "Yes, and the words left by Meddoev are: You must go to Moscow." Otherwise, they won't cooperate, even if you have very threatening intelligence. Or rather...... They will terminate the cooperation. ”
Hou Dasheng frowned and said nothing. But the hound couldn't bear it: "We definitely can't go!" Moscow, that's their territory. Not to mention a few of us, even if the whole jackal goes, if they are going to do something, can we handle it?! It's simply not a thing that is guaranteed! ”
"Actually, that's how I see it too......" Dani looked at Hou Dasheng with a wry smile: "This matter, it's not that the risk is over." It's the equivalent of going to die. Entrust your life and death safety to others. We didn't even have a chance to fight back. They don't have any sincerity at all when they say such things. ”
Hou Dasheng still didn't say a word, he lowered his head and didn't say a word. Seeing this, Dani exhaled deeply: "Cook, I really don't think you can go to Moscow!" Even if we can't cooperate with them in this matter, we must not go to Moscow! ”
"They only gave us 24 hours to think about it, which is obviously not a sincere approach to cooperation." Dani gritted her teeth and said fiercely, "If we go back, we can only send sheep into the tiger's mouth." I even think that we should evacuate Kyiv now! Over here...... It's not safe anymore! ”
At this time, Hou Dasheng slowly raised his head: "Tell them that I will have a video call with Gary Kastrovsky within an hour." If they really want to see me, then please find this person and talk to me. If they don't come to us, then we will abandon this cooperation. ”
Hearing Hou Dasheng's words, Dani and the hound couldn't help but pause. They looked at Hou Dasheng and found that he had no intention of retracting his words. Dani shook the phone on the table. Then he informed Hou Dasheng's words over there.
At the same time as Dani shook the phone, Hou Dasheng lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. It wasn't until Dani finished calling that he slowly raised his head: "Let's go now, go to the service station." For an hour, if there is no answer, we evacuate immediately. Notify others and be prepared to evacuate. ”
Dani couldn't help but nod when she saw Hou Dasheng's solemnity. Hanging up the phone, Dani went to open the cellar door and walked down the stairs. Hou Dasheng's eyes couldn't help narrowing. It was already dusk, but the sunlight was still a little harsher than the basement lights.
They've been in the basement for a while. The three of them were speechless, and Dani took the hound and Hou Dasheng and walked towards the hidden dinghy......
"He asked to see Gary Kastrovsky within an hour?!" In front of the rickety old man, Meddoev felt that his back was all soaked with sweat. The old men seemed to think that he had started to do it. Then no one else has to take over.
From then on, Meddoev could appear directly in front of the three old men, which was not even a treatment for his superiors. Even his superiors were only able to meet the three old men when they were summoned. Other times, even if there is something that needs the help of the three old people, it can only be conveyed through intermediate channels.
But when he saw this rickety old man, he still had a slight smile on his face: "This little guy is very cunning." The lame wolf, though a little stupid and timid. But at least when it comes to choosing your own heir, the vision is not bad. This Chinese kid is still very good. ”
As he spoke, the old man slowly stood up on crutches. The two fat, strong old men on the side wanted to support him. But he raised his hand and pushed him away: "I haven't reached the time when I need someone to help me." When the two old men heard this, they immediately bowed their heads, then stepped aside and bowed slightly.
The rickety old man paused his crutches, walked up to Meddoev and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, young man. We're old men, maybe you've heard our names before. But so what?! The USSR is gone, and we are on the verge of death. Soon, we will all be just like the country we once were......"
"We ...... Maybe more tragic than that. The smile on the old man's face looked a little sad: "It can leave a name, but we can't leave a name." We didn't have a name, but at least it remembered us. Right now...... It's gone, will anyone remember us......"
When Meddoev heard this, he suddenly raised his head excitedly and looked at the rickety old man: "No! We will remember you! Always remember! We remember you both in the past and now in KGB! Even if everyone doesn't remember it, we still remember! ”
"Hahaha...... What you say, young man, may be true. The old man smiled, and this time his smile was better. The age spots on his face widened: "We don't care about this anymore." What else can we care about?! We have nothing left. Maybe what we do now is the last and only thing we can do. ”
But I saw the old man on crutches and crossed Meddoev: "Get ready, I'll talk to that Huaxia kid on the phone in a while." ”
"Speaking of which, I haven't tried video calling with anyone yet." The old man had a smile on his face: "We old things, we are almost all dead." It's these little guys, one by one. I don't know if there are still a few of our old adversaries alive. ”
Meddoev bowed his head and said nothing. After a few old people walked out of the conference room, he hurriedly walked out. When it comes to arranging a video call, it's definitely not something that can be done with simple words. First and foremost, security is guaranteed.
Moscow has confidential foreign communications, but this is to contact Kyiv. It's almost impossible. With satellite channels, then confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. Of course, there is also a way - specially encrypted transmission. But in this way, it will definitely attract the attention of some people.
Indeed, Kiev counts as a traditional power of Moscow. But that doesn't mean that other countries, other people, are ignorant of what's going on there. Suddenly, a specially encrypted communication channel entered Kyiv. A country on the other side of the ocean, which has extremely strong monitoring capabilities, will definitely find out what is wrong with it.
Therefore, it is undoubtedly extremely troublesome to make a video call. But what the old man confessed, Meddoev could not afford not to do. Before all this, he had to inform Hou Dasheng first. It's a pity that Hou Dasheng is now on his way to the service station.
The phone could not be reached, and Meddoev was not in a hurry. He still left a message at the service station, and he knew that Hou Dasheng would definitely go to the service station. Although I don't know the relationship between the jackal and the service station, I went to almost any unfamiliar area. Whether it is an intelligence officer or a mercenary, the first thing to look for must be a service station.
"They agreed to the video call but asked us to wait at least two hours?!" The manager appeared in front of Hou Dasheng, but Hou Dasheng was not surprised. In this matter, it is a little strange that the manager does not appear. Looking at the manager, Hou Dasheng smiled slightly: "Do you know something?!" ”
The manager smiled: "They still have some trouble connecting to Kyiv's network." You know, they weren't very strong in electronics since the days of the former Soviet Union. Now Moscow is even weaker in electronics. If you want an uninterrupted call, it's a hassle for them. ”
Hou Dasheng smiled. He didn't take into account what the governor said. Indeed, it is indeed difficult for Moscow to make video calls with people abroad and to ensure a level of secrecy. After all, since the time of the former Soviet Union, their electronics have been a great weakness. Not much has changed so far.
The direct use of satellites is guaranteed, but the country that directly uses satellites to do so on the other side of the ocean must be alarmed. There is no way to guarantee what problems will arise as a result.
"Do we have a ready-made line to communicate?!" Hou Dasheng lowered his head, thought for a while and asked the manager. The latter smiled wryly: "In this matter, they will never use our line." Moscow is now already sensitive in these areas, and if you make this proposal, it will definitely be vetoed. ”
Hou Dasheng smiled and said, "How do you know if you will pass if you don't bring it up?!" Let them ask the gentleman I want to see directly. The gentleman would tell them whether it was appropriate or not. ”
The manager nodded, and he would never refute a client's request. As long as you can afford it. Soon, the manager walked back with a strange face: "They agreed." Please come with me. ”
Hou Dasheng smiled faintly, and he didn't seem surprised by this result. He stood up and nodded to the Hound and Dani, "I'll go over by myself." You can just wait for me here. ”
The steward led Hou Dasheng from the bar where he and Meddoev had met to the back of the bar. The wine cabinet quietly opened, revealing a room about thirty square meters, and a bearded man inside nodded to the chief steward and got up to leave.
There are complex electronic instruments everywhere, and many Hou Dasheng can't name them. These instruments are flashing red and green. From time to time, the sound of "Didi Di ......" sounds. A fairly comfortable boss chair was pushed to Hou Dasheng's side.
In front of Hou Dasheng was a large display screen of about 20 inches. The manager whispered to Hou Dasheng: "Sir, you can press this electric bell if you have any needs. We're just outside. ”
As he spoke, a picture popped up on the originally black screen. The rickety old man suddenly appeared on the screen. The steward bowed his head and bowed back......
"I've finally seen you." The old man was on the other end of the display screen and said with a smile: "I heard, do you want to see me too?" ”
