Section 186 The Lurker [I]

Yi Shui is back? This was news that surprised Qin Lang, because he hadn't received any news before. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 But Yi Shui should also return to San Diego, he has been away for too long, and Rachel has begun to worry about some problems that only lovers will worry about, if he doesn't come back, something very bad will happen in the end - Qin Lang has seen too much of this kind of thing, but he doesn't want to see this kind of thing happen.

Qin Lang didn't want to see Yi Shui being repeatedly scrutinized by Rachel like a schoolboy who made a mistake and refused to admit it.

Now, of course, that can't happen again; Before Rachel had too much to think about, Yi Shui was back in San Diego. It's a good thing, and it's worth celebrating.

"We can hold some small celebrations......" Qin Lang stopped suddenly. Just now, he thought of another problem: there are always a lot of whispers to talk about after the long-separated lovers get back together, so maybe he should set aside some time for Yi Shui and Rachel to let them be alone.

He started over. "Tonight, I'll leave Yi Shui to you, so that you have time to ......"

But surprisingly, Rachel refused. "Nope. There's no need to do that, Qin. She winked at him twice, "Actually, I think your suggestion is good, we can have a little dance tonight and invite some people over, plus you, me and Elizabeth, to celebrate Yi Ping'an's return." ”

Qin Lang understood what she meant. Elizabeth! The prom party to celebrate Yi Shui's return was just a pretense, and Rachel's real purpose was to get Elizabeth to leave her room and the chemistry for a night of fun - she couldn't refuse the invitation. Even if Elizabeth doesn't want to worry about Rachel's face, she will still give a little face to Yi Shui. Of course, in fact, the education she received also made it impossible for her to refuse invitations without scruples.

It's a great idea, a very good idea.

"A prom." Qin Lang nodded, "That's it." ”

"I'll start arranging it right away." Rachel was delighted. On the one hand, she finally thought of a solution to the problem before Qin Lang, and on the other hand, she personally arranged a dance party to celebrate Yi Shui's return, which she liked to do.

Qin Lang saw it, and he smiled. "Well, that's up to you, Rachel." After a pause, he then asked, "What else do you have to tell me?" She just said that there were "some" messages, but only two were named, so what was the rest?

"Your head of security at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Lawrence Fisborne, has some news for you about Japanese spies." She paused, thought for a moment, and finally said, "And he is also going to introduce you to a newcomer who wishes to work in the Ministry of Internal Affairs." ”

According to the rules set by Qin Lang, every employee recruited by the Ministry of Internal Affairs must be interviewed by him before he can officially enter the company - after all, it is an extremely sensitive special department, he does not want any unsuitable or completely wrong people to join in, and Qin Lang also hopes that he can know and remember every employee who works in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

It's just that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not brought in new blood for a long time, because it simply cannot find outstanding personnel suitable for intelligence or counterintelligence work. So now it was quite a surprise to hear that Fisborne had brought a newcomer.

"Newcomer?" He was stunned for a moment, "Who is it?" ”

"A German named Friedrich-Karl Messerschmitt."

"Germans?"

"That's right, the Germans." Rachel nodded.

But Qin Lang didn't like the Germans, neither then nor now—for no other reason, just a people who could challenge the most powerful countries in the world twice in less than thirty years, but thought they were very good, and its people could not be smart in any way—at least, Qin Lang thought they could not be smart.

Of course, if this German was really the kind of role he needed, he wouldn't refuse to give him a place in the company, as Novotny did – but the question is, is this really the person he needs?

Unable to reach a conclusion for the time being, Qin Lang decided to talk to this German first. "Where are Fisborne and this German, Rachel, where are they?"

"Your office."

Fissborne and Friedrich-Karl Messerschmitt were in Qin Lang's office, patiently waiting for his arrival. Of course, the two men behaved completely differently, and while Fisborne writhed in his chair out of boredom, the German always maintained the starting position, sitting quietly and motionlessly, with a faint smile on his face, like a sculpture.

Generally speaking, candidates who come to the interview will never act like him, they will feel nervous, they will feel uneasy, and they will involuntarily think of many things that are related to the interview or not...... People or things - but Messerschmitt is not an "average candidate", he is not an ordinary character.

But from another point of view, he is an extremely ordinary character. The German had no distinguishing features other than a thin, typical Germanic-style but ordinary-looking square face and beautiful blond hair, and he was of ordinary stature, neither tall nor short, a little thinner but not so thin as to attract attention. If you mix him up with the Germans or the Nordics, it will be very difficult for anyone to identify him unless they are quite familiar with him.

To a large extent, he resembles a professional spy, or has many elements of becoming a professional spy.

At least Qin Lang thinks he can become a professional spy.

"Now it looks like either Mr. Fisborne has picked up a treasure, or we're being targeted by someone or organization." He smiled at Rachel, "Personally, I think the latter is more likely. ”

"Don't you think it's too hasty to draw conclusions now?"

"So I'm going to do some investigation." After speaking, Qin Lang opened the door and walked in.

"Mr. Qin." Fissburn immediately stood up, and then Messerschmitt stood up - but unlike Fissborn, he appeared calm and composed, and it was purely natural, not at all what a candidate should do when he met the boss of the company.

Qin Lang became more interested in the identity of this German. "Friedrich-Karl Messerschmitt?" He stopped Fisburne from introducing him and started the conversation himself, "You want to be at Umbrella?" ”

"I was intrigued by the work that Mr. Fisborne had described to me." The German replied, his voice calm.

However, Qin Lang still heard something: fluent London English, without any accent, he has either lived in London for a long time, or has undergone strict language training. Qin Lang felt that things had become more interesting. "Is that so?" He looked at the Chief of Security, whose face was turning strange, "Can you tell me what Lawrence said to you?" ”

"Sir—"

Qin Lang interrupted Fisborne, who was trying to interfere with the conversation. "Lawrence, can you get away for a while? I would like to speak separately with Mr. Messerschmitt. ”

With no choice but to leave—of course, he had not forgotten to give the Germans a meaningless warning look—and he himself knew very well that since Qin Lang had already asked that question, it was impossible for Messerschmitt to hide anything from him; In many cases, once a mistake has been made, there is no room for change, and the only thing people can do is regret it.

Waiting for the depressed Fisborne to close the door of the office, Qin Lang nodded to Messerschmitt. "Please sit down," he said, "and we can sit and talk." ”

Messerschmitt sat down obediently, and he answered the question. "The fact that Mr. Fisborne didn't say much to me, he used to mention the astronomical telescope, he used to mention the women's locker room, and that's it."

"Interesting statement." Of course, we all know what Fisborne means. Qin Lang smiled secretly, and then began his formal question: "So, you are German, Mr. Messerschmitt?" ”

The Germans shook their heads. "Nope."

"No?"

"I'm from Hanover. Of course, you can also consider me British. Messerschmitt defended himself, "In the year I was born, the Prussian army occupied and annexed Hanover. Because of my opposition to the Prussian regime's rule over Hanover, when I was five years old, my father led the family to emigrate to England. ”

A remnant of the Kingdom of Hanover against the Prussian regime? Although this explanation is quite reasonable, Qin Lang did not find any nostalgia for his "homeland" in Messerschmitt's tone. Of course, this could also be because he has lived in London for too long, but ...... In any case, even if he was really a Hanover remnant living in England, he would have been worth conducting a detailed investigation.

Unfortunately, there was no one to do it.

While he was secretly thinking about it, Qin Lang then asked, "So, can you tell me which school you went to and what kind of jobs you used to do, Mr. Messerschmitt?" Also, why did you come to California for a job? ”

"Of course there is no problem." Messerschmitt smiled faintly, "However, it may take up a lot of your time." ”

He began to recall. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) (To be continued.) )
