After Jascho left, Li Lan also walked out of the base and went straight to the Bagua City Government Office Building.

As soon as he walked into his office, Farah hurried in.

"Sir, the Chinese delegation has arrived." After entering Li Lan's office, Farah spoke.

"Arrange for them to stay first, and I'll summon them later."

"I've arranged for them to stay, but some of them want to see you right away." Farah Road.

"Oh......, what's it called?" Li Lan asked curiously.

"Zeng Zhihua!"

Hearing Farah's answer, Li Lan already had a plan in his heart, "Let him come over!" ”

He didn't know about Zeng Zhihua's arrival in advance, and he still had a lot of good feelings about the director of the Second Bureau of the China Security Bureau, and he didn't feel the bureaucratic style in Zeng Zhihua. With this, Zeng Zhihua has raised a notch in his heart.

After hearing that Zeng Zhihua had come to Somalia again, Li Lan immediately thought of Lin Meiqi. For her, Li Lan was very concerned, and she had been away for half a month, and according to the itinerary, she should also return to China. Regarding her current situation, Li Lan is very concerned in her heart. Therefore, when he heard that Zeng Zhihua was coming, even if Zeng Zhihua did not ask to see him, he would ask people to find Zeng Zhihua.

Ten minutes later, Zeng Zhihua, who had been absent for more than a year, sat face to face with Li Lan again.

Although the age difference between the two is nearly doubled, one is twenty-four or five, and the other is nearly fifty years old, but the two of them, one old and one young, sit together without any sense of disobedience.

"Director Zeng, I haven't seen you for more than a year. The official authority is introverted, which is really rare! ”

Mr. Li Liao praised. If only I had been half as young as I was. That's really a blessing from a previous life. ”

After a compliment from one person to another, the two laughed in unison.

"Director Zeng, it's not the first time you and I have met, don't come here with these imaginary things, there are not many things that can help you, this time the Chinese military delegation came, and it seems that you don't need to come out. Please tell me if there is anything to do. After reining in his smile, Li Lan said lightly.

Perhaps in Mr. Li's eyes, the military delegation's trip was not very significant. But for us, the significance of this trip is extremely significant, and no accidents can occur. So, I'll be in charge of confidentiality. Zeng Zhihua shook his head, and when he heard Li Lan's words, he felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and the No. 1 leader attached great importance to the delegation's trip and selected this group of people overnight. He immediately set off to Somalia and let him personally go out as the leader of the team. is considering that he has experience in dealing with Li Lan head-on, and the relationship is relatively good. Chief No. 1 was also a little worried. The members of these delegations were unable to meet with Li Lan. And there is a deep meaning to let him come here. That's secrecy. In this way, it is enough to verify the importance that the No. 1 leader attaches to the delegation.

"I'm afraid it's more than that!" Li Lan said.

"Of course not. Naturally, I have other missions here. It's just these things. None of the delegations are important. Zeng Zhihua did not hide it, and said: "This time, the No. 1 leader asked me to tell you, he has recognized Lin Meiqi as a righteous daughter, so that you can be completely reassured." Secondly, I also brought someone to take over the work of Maggie Lin as a liaison between the two of us. ”

Hearing Zeng Zhihua's words, Li Lan's concern calmed down a lot, but as for Zeng Zhihua who wanted to send someone to be a liaison, Li Lan simply refused, "I am deeply grateful for the contribution of the No. 1 leader. But I hope that our relationship will be maintained by a liaison. ”

"No, no......, you're mistaken." Zeng Zhihua hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The means of the liaison to directly transmit the information between you and me has absolutely no intention of surveillance. ”

Seeing Zeng Zhihua's appearance, Li Lan said: "Presumably you also know that Lin Meiqi is now my woman, do you think I will not be clear about all her missions?" To tell you the truth, from the day Maggie Lin stayed here, my subordinates have been monitoring her twenty-four hours a day, listening to all her communications. Those so-called satellite encrypted phones don't work with me at all. ”

Li Lan's words made Zeng Zhihua silent for a moment, weighed the pros and cons in his heart, and said helplessly: "Then you should also be very clear about our attitude towards you, to be honest, this is the first time since the founding of the country that the country has been so supportive and indulgent to a shili." Occasional surveillance is also a way to make the state feel more at ease to support you. We want to make sure first of all that you're not a pawn of anyone, and that's for sure. Secondly, we need to understand that your political leanings are now also one-sided. And ......"

Before Zeng Zhihua finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Lan: "The country still wants to restrain me, don't get out of control!" I am afraid that I will put a hole in the sky and affect the country's strategic jihua, so that the country will be on the brink of war, and affect the country's economic development. ”

Zeng Zhihua nodded, he didn't feel embarrassed because Li Lan said this, and then said: "The current shijie is the shijie of economic integration, and without absolute certainty, the national strategic layout is all considered. ”

"And now?" Li Lan said pointedly.

"According to the latest instructions of the first leader, we will not restrict you again in the future!" Zeng Zhihua said very seriously: "There are only less than five people in China who know about this matter, and I only knew it when I set off and the No. 1 leader gave me a special explanation." To be honest, many people in China have a lot of complaints about the country's strong support for you. However, under the dictatorship of the No. 1 leader, the voices of these people did not affect the decision of state policy. This delegation in particular, many people have changed their minds about you. Some of the words of opposition also fell silent. ”

Speaking of this, Zeng Zhihua paused for a moment, then changed the topic and continued: "Lin Meiqi is my student, I myself like this student very much, when she was training, I didn't teach her too many dark side things, I just hope that one day she can get out of this circle." Don't leave too much burden on your heart, the tasks she performs are also relatively safe tasks. To say a word of disbelief, I cut out nearly half of the qualified agent course. Because I really don't want her to lose herself and become a tool of politics. Only Lin Meiqi and I know about this matter. Now, I see how much you have done for her, and I am so happy for her as a mentor. ”

Li Lan took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for teaching Lin Meiqi with your heart!" ”

For a long time, Li Lan had a lot of doubts about Lin Meiqi's mental quality as an agent. To put it bluntly, that is, the innocence that Lin Meiqi has makes him often a little uncomfortable. Because at the beginning, Li Lan regarded Lin Meiqi as a well-trained agent, a female agent who was full of emotions and only had a task. However, that night, the two lines of tears left by Lin Meiqi touched him deeply. At that time, he also realized that from the beginning, it was a mistake to look at her. It turns out that this is the problem.

Li Lan naturally likes such Lin Meiqi, not an agent who has a cold heart to extinguish her emotions. Therefore, this sentence of thanks is his sincere words from the heart.

"Over the years, I've been thinking that my teaching to Maggie Lin is probably wrong, because it could kill her on a mission. However, such fears have disappeared. With a hero like you, what else do I have to worry about being her other half? Zeng Zhihua sighed with emotion, "An 80,000-ton aircraft carrier in exchange for her freedom, I believe that no woman on Shijie can refuse such a man." ”

"I won't say much about thanks, now I haven't given Lin Meiqi much of a safe environment, and it is also a good choice for her to return to China. It's just that I don't want anyone to disturb her peace. Speaking of zuihou, a cold light flashed in Li Lan's eyes.

"After Lin Meiqi returns to China, I will try my best to protect her and ensure that no one will disturb her." Zeng Zhihua solemnly assured: "Although I don't have much right to speak, I have such determination. ”

"I will remember your efforts, but personal friendship is personal friendship, and as for the liaison appointed by the state, I cannot accept it." Li Lan said very seriously.

"It's going to be hard for me." Zeng Zhihua hesitated.

"There's nothing too hard to do, and you know what I'm capable of. I can contact you and the No. 1 leader at any time, and you can naturally contact me at any time, since there is no communication problem between the two sides, weishenme still has to do this superfluous move. Li Lan took out her mobile phone from her pocket and said to Zeng Zhihua.

"Alright! I'll ask for advice on this. However, you also know that CCTV's Africa channel has opened a Somalia special, and Lin Meiqi's previous news work also needs someone to take over. This is an important means of letting Africa and the country know about this place. So, you shouldn't have to say no! Zeng Zhihua said.

"I don't have to refuse, but I can only limit myself to the news, and I don't want anyone to come for any bad purpose." Li Lan is also willing to spread the situation here to Shijie, so naturally he will not refuse such an offer.

"Rest assured, the person who came must be a pure journalist." Zeng Zhihua reassured and continued: "Isn't it time for us to talk about the business next?" This time, I have brought more than a dozen experts from the equipment research departments of the navy, land and air force, and if what you give them can satisfy them, then future orders will continue to come.
