Chapter Seventy-Five: Good Things Are Grinding
"So everything was destroyed? Nothing left? I sat calmly on the couch in the VIP room, listening to the trembling members of the security team. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info In fact, they don't have to be so nervous, who would have thought that their immediate boss would be a traitor, and who would have thought that the bomb just now could blow up the entire room without any clues? I got up lightly and sighed, "It looks like our trail is broken." β
"What should I do!" Gran Zangmu exclaimed excitedly: "Is it impossible for us to know the location of the Prime Minister?" Damn, where are we going to find it now? β
"Don't be too nervous, guys," I said with a slight cough, "at least we still have this." β
I pulled out the route map that had been crumpled into a ball of paper. Although the map has lost a corner, at least the main body is unscathed. Suddenly, everyone gathered around to take a look, and no one even paid attention to Aberdullah's body, which was already left with only black wreckage next to him.
"At least one thing is certain," I sneered, "and Yuri was kept in the dark as well. We have the same amount of information about the position of the prime minister as Yuri. β
"Why is that?" Gran Zangmu asked.
"Look at this missing corner." I picked up the map and showed the gap to everyone. When I first saw this picture, I noticed this flat and uniform arc with a missing corner, and it seemed that there was a little discoloration at the edges.
"There is no doubt that this is a trace of Aberdullah's previous destruction. Hand tearing will not leave such a flat notch, and scissors will not cut such a rounded arc. Scissors can't do it, and paper cutters can't do it. So the only way to destroy," I said softly, "is only burning, and the blackening of the notch color is evidence of burning. β
"So what?" Daxia asked, "Even if this is burned, how can it prove that my dad is okay?" β
"You think, if a person is burning a document, it means that the document is no longer needed. But why did he stop burning in the middle of the day and hide the drawing in a bookcase? Could it be that he is crazy? I asked rhetorically. Daxia thought for a while and then understood: "Because at this time someone told him to stop!" β
"That's right!" I nodded in satisfaction and said, "Rotten wood can be carved, but who is it and why did you tell him to stop?" β
"Because of his ...... Superior? Sergey interjected. I continued to nod my head and said, "Absolutely. Perhaps while Abdullah was destroying the incriminating evidence, a signal came from his superiors asking him to keep the map or give him some new mission, so he remembered that the map was still useful, and he rescued it from the fire. So let's think about it, why did his superiors ask him to leave this map at the risk of being exposed? β
"The ......," replied Noblanga in thought, "probably ...... What went wrong with them? β
"That's right! That's it! I yelled, "They must have gone somehow wrong with their plans." Like, they themselves don't know the whereabouts of Lomanov! β
This conclusion is abrupt, but it is the only possibility. Yuri's plan has gone awry! In order to confirm where Lomanov crashed, Abdullah had to take a huge risk to hide the voyage map he had drawn earlier, so that he could study and compare it at any time and help his owner locate Lomanov's location! If that's the case, there must be a ...... on this picture
"I think I found it." After a long silence, I pointed to an area of the map and drew a line with my finger. All those who watched had surprises and suspicions in their eyes. "You're amazing, Comrade Commander, how did you tell?"
"By feeling, guys. Sometimes I feel like Yuri and I are in good shape, and I'm always a beat faster than him. The good news now is that we have determined the general location of Lomanov, and we have also dug up the traitor to solve the problem of why the prime minister's plane leaked, and it is estimated that Yuri is still in the dark. β
"And what about the bad news?" Darsha asked anxiously. I sighed slowly and replied, "Ugh - bad news...... The worst news is this: I estimate that with our capabilities, there is no way to go in and search for a large number of people. And the only way...... Another place in extreme danger. β
As I spoke, I looked at the sky to the south. Several intruder warplanes roared to the south, and the cannon fire from the south grew louder and louder.
β¦β¦
"Welcome, Comrade Makyebka! I'm so happy to be with you again. "Lieutenant General Andrei happily gave me a hug. I didn't expect that after being withdrawn from the United States, Andrei would be transferred here, and I was lucky enough to meet him!
"I can see what you're thinking. But I think ...... You may be disappointed. We are not here to help you deal with the enemy in southern Cairo," said Dasha softly with some dissatisfaction, "in fact, we have come to ask for your cooperation in finding Comrade Prime Minister......
"What a rude fellow...... Wait, I know you," Andrei reflexively glared at Darsha at Lomanov, and suddenly reacted again, "Wait, I seem to have seen you somewhere......"
"You must have seen her, Comrade Andrei - oh no, uncle - at least at last year's International Youth Congress, the one who led the Internationale-"
"Dasha Alexander Romanov!" Andrei suddenly realized, "It is a great honor for us to have the Red Princess in Cairo, and we are very sorry that I did not kneel down to greet the pearl of the Prime Minister's palm." Saying that, he also performed a salute of the Tsarist court to welcome the members of the royal family, and Daxia slammed the door angrily, and the others couldn't help but want to laugh. Andrei was a fierce general who fought and was as fierce as a man back then, but he didn't expect that more than ten years later, his character still hasn't changed.
"A word of caution: although the poisonous butterflies are gorgeous and beautiful, some of them can sting a buffalo to death in a matter of minutes." AndrΓ© whispered in my ear, "As an older senior, this is a little bit of life experience that I personally teach you, you know?" Over the years, I have learned a truth, which is what the Chinese call 'making a fortune out of silence'. I used to think it was cowardly's behavior, but now it seems that it is for the best. Isn't it? Hahaha-"
"I want to ...... Uncle Andrei, this is clearly not the matter we are talking about today...... "Only then did I have the opportunity to say something. But it was interrupted by Uncle Andrei, who was overzealous and prejudiced.
"I understand, Mark, I understand very much. Only Mr. Einstein can activate Yuri's telepathic device to find Lomanov's exact location based on the information you have provided. You've said it again," said Lieutenant General AndrΓ©, looking disdainfully at the pyramids to the south outside the tent, pointing to the tallest and most badly damaged one, "and now it's a difficult problem for you to solve: how to break through the defensive position that controlled Einstein. Everyone's time is precious, and after another 6 hours to wait for the psychic beacon to activate to delay some time, and give them 10 hours later, if the psychic control switchboard is restarted, then it will be too late. β
