Chapter Ninety-Eight: Interviewed

Early the next morning, Li Lan came to the No. 1 barracks again.

The major in charge of the interrogation immediately reported to him the results of the interrogation.

All three are part of the CIA's Africa Intelligence Directorate, are originally Somalis, adopted by the CIA from an early age, and raised as agents.

Of course, these are not what Li Lan wants to know the most, what he is interested in is whether they are still in the same party, and what news they are here to spy on.

On the same party side, Li Lan did not have the answer he was interested in, and the purpose of the three of them, in addition to exploring the specific functions of those suspicious buildings in the territory, was mainly to see who was around Li Lan.

However, it is precisely because of their existence that Li Lan has not appeared in front of the public these days, and they have no way to find out.

Last night, the deadline given by the CIA was approaching, so that the three of them did not hesitate to take risks, and they were arrested with a sentence.

It can be said that Li Lan was very dissatisfied with the results of these interrogations. Whether it is MI5 or the KGB, the CIA, or the Mossad, he doesn't care about the origin of these people, but he must find out the purpose of these people.

When Li Lan left, he only left a sentence full of murderous intent: "In the absence of interrogation results, all of them will be fed to the lions." Also, let people find a way to get a few Nile crocodiles, and Lao Tzu wants to build a crocodile pool to greet them. ”

After returning to the base, Li Lan's face returned to normal.

In the morning, at eight o'clock, Li Lan sat quietly in the living room on the first floor of the base car, sipping fragrant tea and others.

"Report, reporter Lin brought." It didn't take long for the guards to report outside.

"Come in."

Soon. The two figures walked into the base car. A very simple dress, a pair of modest flats. There is also a red peaked cap. Red face and no makeup, although not carefully dressed. But the fresh and refined temperament with the angelic face made Li Lan's eyes shine.

As for the man carrying the camera next to Lin Meiqi, Li Lan only glanced at it slightly, and did not pay too much attention.

"Reporter Lin has come from afar, please take a seat." Li Lan didn't get up, but made a gesture of please.

“xiexie!” Since Lin Meiqi came in, she has been staring at the very young man in front of her. On the first impression, Lin Meiqi gave him a high score. Under her ordinary appearance, that calm temperament gave her a lot of good impressions. Favor, and it means that she has a crush on him, but the feeling she didn't dislike when they first met.

"Is it the official beginning, or let's talk about it first." Li Lan said.

"Chatting can enhance mutual understanding, and it's good to chat when we meet for the first time." After Lin Meiqi sat down, she looked at the man with a calm face on the other side. He said loudly: "Mr. Li is contrary to the ancient Chinese hospitality, and we have been here for several days before agreeing to my interview. And you won't let me interview your soldiers, which really makes Maggie sad! ”

"Miss Lin. You also know that this is not a chaotic area that can be counted in the country. Here's one of them. It's not easy to survive here. I've always believed it. The good guys on this shijie don't die, and the bad guys don't die. Stupid people die the fastest. This sentence may not make much sense in China, but here, it is the golden rule. Li Lan slowly fiddled with the tea set in front of her, made a cup of fragrant tea for Lin Meiqi, and said slowly: "Being here, there are battlefields everywhere, if I am not careful, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see my bones now." ”

"It seems really not easy for Mr. Li to be able to set up such a big stall in today's family business." Lin Meiqi stared at Li Lan in a daze, as if she suddenly wanted to see something on his face, but she was very disappointed, and the man in front of her was very calm. She has been carefully dressed here, she is elegant, she has self-confidence, few men can block her charm, now she is a little disappointed, although the man in front of her has been staring at her, but his face is still as calm as ever, I can't see how many amazing looks, I can't see the kind of eyes that belong to men, and I can't see the existence of any desire. This left her feeling a little frustrated.

"Miss Lin dared to come here at a young age, and I admire your courage very much." Li Lan said.

"Huh!" Lin Meiqi smiled lightly and said: "Journalist is originally a risky profession, I don't like to interview calmly, but like to get news that I am interested in in dangerous areas, I have always hoped that I can become a war correspondent." During the Libyan war, I was still studying, and I couldn't go if I wanted to, but Syria didn't have my share, so I applied to come to Africa.

But my guts, compared to Mr. Li, are nothing at all. At a young age, Mr. Li dared to come to Somalia alone to start a business, and with this courage, there are a few people who can reach him. ”

"Miss Lin praised, there are a few more people on Shijie who can truly overcome the fear of death." Li Lan took a sip of tea and continued: "It's not too early, how about the interview begin?"

"It's up to Mr. Li, then we'll get started." Lin Meiqi nodded, although she had a lot of things to say in her heart, she had no choice but to agree.

The camera is turned on and the interview begins.

"Mr. Li, I would like to ask why you chose Somalia." Maggie Lin asked first.

"Because I'm needed here." Li Lan replied very simply.

"As far as I know, there was a battle here before, and many people died, can you tell us what caused that war?" Maggie Lin continued to ask.

"Does armed conflict still need a justification in Somalia? If every conflict needed a reason, there would be a lot less bloodshed on Shijie. Li Lan said.

"I heard that the shili under your command is fighting with the government forces in Puntland, so it won't be for no reason!"

"The Puntland government army, which is also an armed shili, is not much different from the many warlords in Somalia." Li Lan said.

"I heard that you were the victor in that war, and that the Puntland government army has designated your armed forces as an anti-government terrorist organization and protested to the Chinese government, what do you think about this?" Maggie Lin asked.

"The essence of the problem has always been two-sided: I took in the victims and provided them with food, shelter and security, while the government army did everything possible to raise the price of food in order to prevent me from buying food. You know, I bought food to save the innocent victims. If they say that I am a terrorist organization, then what are they with the title of government army? Doesn't that mean that they are even more evil than terrorist organizations?

I myself am deeply sorry for their protest to the Chinese government and for causing trouble to my homeland. However, I will not back down, and as long as there are victims in Somalia, as long as there are Somali civilians in Somalia who are in the middle of the war and facing no need to protect their lives, then I will not stop all actions.

As an outsider, I can do this, and I hope all Somalis can do the same, and I don't need anything in return for what I have done here. That's why I, as an outsider, have the support of so many Somalis. Water can carry a boat, but also can capsize a boat, this is the Tang Taizong handed down the famous saying, only their own selfless dedication, in order to get the support of the majority of Somali people. Speaking of these, Li Lan is the head of the road. Sometimes, he really feels like a saint.

"Your integrity makes Meiqi very admired, and here I also hope that Shijie has more people like you. If it weren't for the fact that I have been in the refugee camp for the past few days, I would have found it hard to imagine that a foreigner would be able to do such a righteous act in Somalia. "If you have difficulties with food, do you allow the help of international humanitarian organizations?" ”

"Saving Somalis has never been a matter of one person, and my liliang is also limited, and now I can only help as much as I can. To be honest, our territory is currently facing a shortage of food, and if the food problem cannot be solved, we will no longer be able to take in the victims, and I am afraid that the distribution of food will also begin to be restricted in the territory. I would be very grateful if I could help an international humanitarian organization. Li Lan confessed that there was no need to hide this kind of thing at all, and he agreed to the interview, wanting to meet these Chinese, and he was originally going for food.

"When it comes to food, we're here to help." Maggie Lin said very sincerely, not a lie.

"Then on behalf of the inhabitants of the territory and the victims of the disaster, I would like to express my gratitude." Li Lan said.

"Coming here, I also heard that Mr. Li's subordinates are fluent in Mandarin, and they also respect and love you very much, can you tell me how you trained them?" Maggie Lin is very interested in this.

"If there is perseverance, it is impossible to have it on shijie. Language is not difficult to master, as long as there is perseverance, anyone can do it. As for their respect and affection for me, that is because I have the right to make them respect and love, and if someone can be like me, then he can also be loved and respected by them. I have this status today, and I have done it all in real terms. Li Lan replied ambiguously, of course he couldn't tell the truth about this kind of thing, so he could only use the means of flickering, and he didn't use this kind of method less anyway.

"It's only been a few days since I came here, but I feel very deeply that it is not easy for an outsider to be loved by so many locals. This was largely invisible in the colonial era of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The people here are very simple, and it is their virtue to be grateful and reciprocated, and I am sure that in the near future, all Somalis will remember what you have done for them. Lin Meiqi said with emotion.

"I just hope that more people will join in, and everyone will gather firewood and the flame is high!" Li Lan pointed out. (To be continued......)
