The winter in Moscow was so torturous, and there was nothing urgent during this time, so Seryosha planned to go on vacation with Petrov to the Black Sea coast of the Crimea. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In recent years, everyone has almost become busier. And because they are scattered all over the world, it is even more difficult to see each other. Since it's a vacation, it's naturally a rare opportunity to get together. Seryosha told everyone about this trip to Crimea, and everyone wanted to come back and have a look. So this trip to Crimea turned out to be a big gathering of the Gorky Brotherhood.

But before leaving, Seryosha had to do a few things to do to maintain his contacts in Moscow. First of all, he was going to visit Chulbanov, and Seryosha had a bad impression of Chubanov's wife, Galina. So he asked Chubanov out, with the Architects' Club.

The gift that Seryosha brought to Chubanov was a Patek Philippe watch from Switzerland. Although this watch is worth a lot of money, it doesn't look ostentatious at all. Seryosha wrapped the box of his watch in newspaper, because the Architects' Club was a place for dignitaries to enter, and only then did it look less glamorous.

Chubanov was about ten minutes late to get to Seryosha's private room. As soon as he entered the door, Seryosha felt as if Chubanov was a different person. I saw that his face was pale, and he was a little unrelenting, as if he had a serious illness.

"Dude, you don't look good, what's wrong?" Seryosha asked with concern.

"Seryosha, I'm in trouble! It's really troublesome! Chubanov sat down on the couch and cried as he spoke.

This action of Chubanov startled Seryosha, he poured Chubanov a glass of wine to moisten his throat, and then asked: "Brother, what happened?" ”

"Sholokov is dead! I attended his funeral just a few days ago, and it's miserable! I've had nightmares almost every day since I came back! Maybe one day I'll be forced to do this! Chubanov said in horror.

"Sholokov? Minister of Internal Affairs Xiaolokov? Your former immediate boss? How did he die? Seryosha asked in surprise, he didn't expect such a big thing to happen in China.

"Sholokov shot himself in the head with a shotgun, and on the 13th of last month, at the funeral, his face was covered with a white handkerchief, but his whole face was sunken. As soon as I close my eyes, I remember this scene......" Chubanov said excitedly.

"When he died, he could only be buried in ordinary clothes! All honors were stripped away, and less than ten people, including me, attended his funeral! Seryosha, Xiaolokov is the full minister, I am the first deputy minister, do you think I will also be implicated? Chubanov took Seryosha's hand and anxiously consulted.

"Brother, don't worry! Calm down. Maybe not as bad as you think! Seryosha said with relief.

Seryosha was going to leave with a gift, but now it seems that Chulbanov's side is afraid that things are in big trouble. And Seryosha did not know anything about these situations abroad. He couldn't say why for a while, Seryosha thought about it for a while, and then whispered: "Brother, if the situation is really urgent to the point of no return, I still have a backup plan." If you need, I can arrange a plane for you to leave the USSR! ”

Chubanov raised his head, looked at Seryosha, and asked in disbelief: "Seryosha, you're not joking!" What an airplane! ”

"Dude, I have an air cargo company on my hands! As long as you plan carefully, you will definitely be able to get out safely! Seryosha assured.

"Seryosha, I just want to ask, ...... my property abroad" Before Chulbanov's words fell, Seryosha replied cautiously and carefully: "It's all in Switzerland, as long as you go abroad, it's enough for you to spend ten lifetimes!" ”

Chubanov nodded, and then said again: "Seryosha, I understand through the matter of Xiaolokov, they will not let me go." I don't know how Sholokov was forced to die, but I don't want to follow in his footsteps. The money in Switzerland is the only thing on my mind, take care of it for me! ”

"Brother, I also have one more thing I have to tell you, Yakovlev told me that Chernenko is terminally ill! If nothing else, he is no longer up to the post of general secretary. Soon it will be Gorbachev's world! I advise you to plan ahead! Seryosha breathed through Chubanov.

"Terminally ill, how could I not know? When commemorating the military parade of the October Revolution...... "Chubanov asked in surprise.

"If there was no military parade, the general secretary's health would not be so bad!" Seryosha explained.

Chubanov's current position is only a middle-level official in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, many channels of information have been lost, and although he still has the line of the KGB, the KGB is now not treated well by all members of the Politburo Standing Committee, and the KGB does not dare to leak the health of the general secretary.

Seryosha took the opportunity to take out the gift and gave it to Chulbanov. And said to him: "Dude, this is a gift I brought to you, I wish you a happy new year!" ”

"Seryosha, what is it?" Chubanov asked.

"An inconspicuous watch!" Seryosha explained.

"I appreciate your kindness, but I can't wear it, and now many people in the Ministry of the Interior are staring at me!" Chubanov sighed and said helplessly.

"You've had a bad time at the Home Office, haven't you? If you can't survive, come to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation! Seryosha said with concern.

"I also want to go to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, but I can't decide on this matter!" Chubanov patted Seryosha on the shoulder and said helplessly.

"I'll figure out a way, anyway, I want to use people, and the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation also has some law enforcement departments, I can arrange you to the customs anti-smuggling force!" Seryosha said.

Seryosha and Chubanov talked for a long time in the box, and Chubanov's mood finally calmed down a little. Chubanov didn't want to cause trouble for Seryosha, so he was the first to leave the room and go home. Seryosha was thinking about Chulbanov's transfer, and he didn't come up with anything useful for a long time. He decided to wait until he returned from vacation.

After Seryosha left the Builders' Club, he suddenly remembered Lebed, whom he had not seen for a long time. Seryosha picked up the phone and dialed Lebed's number!
