Paris, France.

"Crunch!" With the sharp sound of brakes, an Opel minibus stopped outside the Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis church.

"Man, St. Paul's Church has arrived." The driver turned around and said to the couple sitting behind him, "Have fun!" ”

"Okay, thank you." Hearing this, the two stood up, thanked them, and got out of the car with their luggage.

Built in the 17th century in the time of Louis XIII, the Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis church is typical of the Baroque style, and the whole is full of hedonism in addition to strong religious characteristics, which is in stark contrast to the famous Notre-Dame Cathedral on the nearby island of Sité.

The church is not large, especially compared with Notre Dame Cathedral 900 meters away, but its dome is unusually high, and with the seemingly non-existent holy music, it easily gives people a solemn and sacred feeling, which also makes it under the great glory of Notre Dame Cathedral has not lost its own color, and has become a more famous attraction in Paris.

"This is the Church of Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis?" The feminine-looking girl in a long dress looked up at this famous church and exclaimed, "It's beautiful!" ”

"What's the use of being pretty? Have all one's goods in the window! In contrast to the girl's full praise, the boy looked a little scoffing, "Okay, let's go quickly, the Gestapo comrades are still waiting for us." ”

"Manfred, you really don't understand style!" The girl slapped the boy hard and said angrily, then strode towards the destination alone with her luggage.

Manfred touched his nose and looked a little innocent, he couldn't understand why the girl was suddenly angry.

However, he didn't bother to think about these problems, in his opinion, completing the tasks assigned by Leon was the first goal.

Shaking his head, Manfred trotted a few steps to catch up with the girl in the distance, silently took the luggage in the girl's hand, and the two slowed down and walked side by side.

Paris is worthy of being the capital of fashion and romance, even if the army is constantly losing in Italy, France, Germany and France, and the main elite of the Allied army is even about to be completely surrounded on the line from Calais to Dunkirk, but the city of Paris does not seem to be affected, there are still unknown bands playing classical or pop music on the streets, and the elderly and children are still enjoying the afternoon sun in the park.

This pace of life is normal for Parisians, but it is something that Manfred and Claire have never experienced.

In their usual days, the only sounds in their ears were the wails of enemies or comrades, but now the air was filled with intoxicating music and the laughter of passers-by.

This made the two of them a little uncomfortable, but fortunately the destination was not far from the church, and after walking a few hundred meters, they arrived at the place, a huge department store.

Walking into the mall, the two first walked around, and after making sure that no one was paying attention to them, they went straight to the retro clothing area on the second floor to pick out two sets of clothes, and then walked to the checkout gate No. 13 with clothes in their left hand and luggage in their right hand.

The cashier at the No. 13 cash register saw the two of them coming over in this posture, and his face suddenly became a little nervous, but he immediately adjusted back and asked the two with a smile on his face, "Are you two together?" ”

"Yes, together." Manfred nodded as he took Claire's clothes and handed them to the cashier.

The cashier took the clothes with both hands, quietly opened the collar and looked at the item number, and then accosted the two of them: "Look at the two of you, you just came to Paris, right?" ”

"Just here." Manfred nodded again.

"So are your daily necessities ready? Especially for things like umbrellas, it rains a lot in Paris. The cashier began to "enthusiastically" sell to the two of them, "If not, then I can ask the shopping guide to take you on a walk - I don't think two sets of clothes can stop you from the heavy rain in Paris." ”

"Is it like this? We really didn't have an umbrella with us...... "Claire's soft voice sounded, "I thought the weather in Paris was mostly sunny...... Samiel, why don't we listen to this young lady and go buy two? ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Manfred glanced at Claire with a grin.

"Hey! Thoma! When the cashier heard that the two had agreed to his offer, he turned his head and shouted to a man in a shopping guide uniform not far away, "Take these two customers to pick out two umbrellas, remember, they must be good!" ”

"Understood." A shopping guide named Thoma walked up quickly and said to Manfred, "Dear Sir and Madam, please come with me." ”

After saying that, he left the cash register with the two of them and walked towards the third floor of the mall, and the sound of the cashier and the next customer behind him also came to their ears.

"Hey, Emily, why haven't I seen you so warm to me?" The customer behind Manfred, who apparently knew the cashier, asked suspiciously as he piled the contents of his basket onto the cash register.

"If you're new to Paris and you're as handsome as he is, I'll be so enthusiastic about you." Emily replied with a casual smile.

The two of them walked to the third floor under the leadership of Thoma, but instead of going to the commodity area, they went straight to the president's office in a remote location.

"Boss, the guests of the motherland are here." Thoma knocked on the door.

"Really?" The door was quickly opened from the inside, and a man of about 70 years of age on crutches appeared.

The old man glanced at Manfred and Claire, then stepped out of the way: "Come in quickly, Thoma, you should get off work today." ”

Manfred and the others nodded, and walked in from the old man's side.

The old man sent Thoma away, locked the door, and couldn't wait to come to the two of them, stretched out his hand to the two of them, and said, "You are the 'King of Spades' and the 'Q of Spades', right?" ”

"Yes." Manfred and Claire shook hands with the old man.

The "King of Spades" and the "Queen" are the code names for both of them, with "Spades" representing the SS "Ghost" Alpha Squad (Hearts, Clubs, and Diamonds representing Beta, Gamma, and Delta respectively), while "K" and "Q" represent "King" and "Queen".

Hearing that the two of them confirmed their identities, the old man suddenly became fanatical, his withered hands trembled slightly, looked at the two with expectant eyes, and asked, "Führer...... Did the Führer mention me before you departed? Does the Führer have anything to say to you? ”

"Absolutely! The Führer has never forgotten you, and all the heroes who fought for the Empire in the shadows! Manfred replied with a smile.
