Chapter Ninety-Seven: Interrogation of Spies
PS: The fifth watch is complete
――――――――
On the school field of Barracks No. 1, three black men who looked like Somalis squatted together under the stars.
Behind them, three Chinese soldiers stared at them intently.
The three of them did not communicate at all, nor did they have any body movements, just squatted quietly together. Under the searchlight, there were no other scars on his body, except for a few bruises.
In the evening, the three people gathered together saw that the deadline was getting closer and closer, and the defense here was as strict as ever, so they had no choice but to take a risk.
After these days of oversight, we found several very suspicious places, and the No. 7 tank factory was the most valuable target for them. Unexpectedly, when they finally lurked near the chariot factory and were about to enter after climbing down the wall, they were instantly caught.
They originally wanted to resist, but they didn't expect to be subdued with three fists and two kicks, and they were taken to the barracks without the ability to resist.
When Li Lan arrived, this was the first time the three of them saw the legendary Chinese, and it was exactly the same as the photo they had seen before they came.
After receiving Natasha's report, Li Lan immediately came to the No. 1 barracks, and a squad of guards followed closely behind him.
After coming here, Li Lan did not speak, but looked at the three people in front of him with a calm face. The two sides looked at each other silently.
Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Mohammadi and Farah came together. Farah hasn't left since he arrived at the base three days ago. I just heard that the guards had caught a few suspicious people, so I hurriedly came over with Mohammadi to have a look.
It was specially instructed by Li Lan to inform Mohammadi and Farah. The three people who were arrested were, after all, Somalis, and he felt compelled to let the two of them know. Lest there be any misunderstanding in the future. The relationship between the two sides has been estranged.
"My friend, what's going on?" Looking at the three Somalis squatting together, Farah couldn't help but ask.
"The guards caught three spies." Li Lan said calmly.
"Spy!" Muhammadi on the side couldn't help but exclaim.
"Yes, the whereabouts of these three people have been under our control since they entered the territory, and in the absence of evidence, and in order not to damage the relationship with the Somalis, I have not acted excessively. Tonight, the fox's tail of the three men was revealed. climbed over the wall into the firearms and was caught red-handed by the guards. Li Lan was still calm, and he couldn't see the slightest anger.
"Could they have gone in and stolen something? It's not that serious about spying. Muhammadi beside him couldn't help but ask.
"That's right! That's right! The three of us are just looking for money, we just want to get some weapons to sell, and we don't have other ideas! Please spare us, sir! As if they suddenly heard Muhammadi's words, the three of them hurriedly kowtowed to Li Lan and the others and begged for mercy.
"Is it better to investigate clearly and then make a decision?" Farah next to him also spoke.
"Huh!" Li Lan's originally calm face suddenly showed a smile, looked at Muhammadi and Farah beside him, and said, "I specially asked you to come over." I just want to interrogate the three of them together. No matter what the result is, it can be regarded as an explanation to the two of you, and of course I hope that the three of them will give me a correct explanation. ”
"Well, there are house rules. The state has national laws, and no matter what the purpose of these three people is, it must be handled in accordance with the law. Farah nodded.
"That's exactly how it should be." Muhammadi chimed in.
"Such a beautiful starry sky. It's not a good trial, I remember the other day. The patrolling soldiers caught two juvenile stray lions that had been mixed with hunger and were locked up in Barracks No. 1 to recuperate. Why don't we go there and see if the two lions have recovered? Li Lan looked up at the starry sky and said.
Mohammadi and Farah looked at each other and nodded in unison.
"Take the three of them to the lion cage."
The group soon came to the rear of Barracks No. 1, which was originally a canteen for soldiers, and now in the hall of the canteen, a large iron cage was built, and two juvenile male lions, who had just grown their manes, were locked inside.
On both sides of the large iron cage, there are two mobile iron staircases, and on all sides of the iron cage, they are tightly enclosed with barbed wire like fish scales, only the top of the iron cage has a one-meter square gap that can be closed and closed. And the way to feed these two lions is to throw the food off them.
Because the canteen of Barracks No. 1 has been discontinued, and the soldiers are all congregating on Canteen No. 2 for meals, few people come here.
The two male lions, who were grinding their teeth, immediately roared when they saw the crowd coming in.
The soldier who specially watched the two lions saw Li Lan's figure, and hurriedly walked over and saluted, "Commander." ”
"How are these two lions doing at the moment, and how long has it been since they eaten." Li Lan asked.
"They are in good condition and ready to be released, they haven't eaten for two days, and they are being fed."
"Very well, don't prepare the food, I brought live food for both of them." Li Lan pointed to the three agents who had been escorted over, and said in English.
"Humble duty understands." The soldier who acted as the breeder didn't say much, and consciously stepped aside, where to find a chair, and set it up for Li Lan.
Li Lan sat down generously, and the three agents knelt in front of Li Lan under the custody of the soldiers.
"Report the whereabouts of the three of them every day and give them a good look." Li Lan didn't ask at first, but asked the three of them to take a good look at the results of their surveillance.
"In the thirty-seven days since you entered the realm, you have continued your construction work, meeting in secret twenty-three times, and meeting in secret eleven times in the evening. Don't think we know anything about the three of you, we're in control from the day you walked into the territory. Your food, clothing, shelter, and transportation are under our supervision. Perhaps in your eyes, you have been careful and careful, and you feel that your actions are seamless. But I can tell you clearly. This is nothing more than wishful thinking on your part. Li Lan took out a knife from his pocket and slowly repaired his nails. He spoke.
And the three agents, looking at the three reports that were still in front of them, trembled in their hearts, and their pseudonyms were clearly printed on the cover of the reports. However, the three of them did not move to turn over the meaning, but shouted at the same time: "We really just want to get some weapons to sell,...... And for no other purpose. ”
While crying out for grievances, he did not forget to cry to Muhammadi and Farah for help: "Two benefactors, save us. …… Don't feed us to the lions, we really don't have any other purpose,...... Stealing is not a capital offense! ”
Mohammadi and Farah glanced at the calm Li Lan, did not say anything, and waited quietly.
"You know better than anyone whether there is a ghost in your heart, according to the information you have reported, you do not have any academic qualifications, and you can understand what I just said in English. Self-learning ability is very strong! After the soldiers behind him flipped through and understood what the three were shouting, Li Lan continued, "Your evidence. But what is written on it? weishenme don't look? If you don't have a ghost in your heart, why don't you look at it. ”
"We are really wronged, we are all villains and greedy. I wanted to steal some weapons to sell them for a good price, but the villain was scared of hunger. The three of them were still dressed with mournful faces. In addition to constantly kowtowing and begging for mercy, he did not move to rummage through the documents in front of him.
"Huh. It's a real joke in the world. Li Lan smiled lightly, glanced at Mohammadi and Farah, and said, "You two, do you see anything?" ”
Mohammadi and Farah were not fools either, and they also saw that something was wrong. But neither of them said anything, just nodded slightly.
"I know you guys have been trained as spies since childhood, but I have a lot of tools to deal with people like you. Now I need someone to show me the consequences of challenging my patience, and it depends on Allah as to who it is. Li Lan first spoke to the three men in English, and then ordered the soldiers who were holding the three of them in Mandarin: "Put them in a triangle." ”
Soon, the three of them knelt together again, Li Lan handed the knife to the soldier beside him, and gestured to him for a look, and then continued to speak: "If you don't speak, after the rotation stops, whoever the blade is directed at, will feed the lion." ”
"Let's go." With a start, the knife spun under the noses of the three people, and the eyes of all three were fixed on the knife spinning under them. The speed of the knife is not very fast, but it is very resistant to rotation. It was originally a very long time for these three people, but with the turn of the knife, the time seemed even longer.
No one wants the blade to be facing them, and no one wants to go inside to be with the lions, and although they have undergone rigorous training, they do not have much sense of belonging in their hearts. There is no consciousness that he is willing to die.
With the constant prayers in the hearts of the three of them, the knife finally stopped. The blade was pointed at one of the three of them, and the person who was pointed at by the blade collapsed in an instant.
"It's up to you, push him down. You two just keep my eyes open and watch, and whoever blinks will be next. Li Lan's face was as calm as ever, and when she said these words, she didn't seem to have the slightest fluctuation in her heart.
"Yes." Two soldiers, dragging the decrepit ghost, headed for the moving staircase by the iron cage.
"Spare me! Spare me! ”
Unmoved, the two soldiers took his hands and climbed onto the big iron cage and opened the opening on the top of the iron cage. dragged him directly to the side of the mouth and pushed him down.
However, this person did not fall immediately, and his hands clung to the iron net, and most of his upper body was still on the iron net.
The two lions in the iron cage were already hungry, and the food in front of them was in front of them, where could they bear it, one of them flew and pounced, bringing up a large piece of minced meat, and the calf of the decrepit ghost was pulled off a piece of meat by the lion's claws.
"Ahh Help me! I say...... I said, pull me up! Under the great pain, the decrepit ghost cried directly in English.
"The three of them will give me a separate trial, and if the confessions are different, they will all be pulled to feed the lions." Li Lan got up and walked out of the cafeteria.
When Mohammadi and Farah on the side saw Li Lan leave, they all glanced at the three of them angrily and followed quickly.
And Li Lan was waiting for the two of them at the door of the cafeteria, and at night, looking at the charming bright stars in the sky, he said slowly: "When I came to Somalia, I faced too much pressure. It is necessary to deal not only with the government army, but also with the international shili. My identity has already doomed me to be an enemy, and no one else will let me go, even if I keep to myself. This is shijie, things are not something you can dodge if you want to.
Today's three people are just the beginning, I can tell you very clearly, there are still many restless elements in the territory, don't think that I have assigned you guards to monitor you, but to guard against those with bad intentions.
In the future, we will face an even more difficult situation, as long as the enemy's goals are not achieved, the enemy will continue to use such espionage methods. So, I hope you'll all be careful in the future. ”
Hearing Li Lan's words, Mohammadi and Farah glanced at each other and nodded cautiously. (To be continued......)
