Chapter 37: The Swallow

A month later, a New Delhi court convicted the four defendants of robbery, kidnapping, destruction of evidence, and murder. Subsequently, the four convicts appealed against the verdict and the High Court of India upheld the death sentence and rejected their appeal request. Announcing the verdict, the New Delhi High Court judge said the case had a bad impact and was a rare case in the Indian judicial system that could be punishable by death. The court also rejected the appeal of the defendant's lawyer and ruled that he should not appeal to the Supreme Court of India.

Since Shakru was a direct eyewitness, his days did not stop during this time, and the police and courts asked him to cooperate with the investigation many times, and Badri came to express his gratitude many times, on the one hand, to thank Shakru for saving his daughter's life, and on the other hand, to thank Shakru for cooperating with the investigation so that the murderer of his daughter could be brought to justice. Although Shakru doesn't like to deal with the police very much, he can't turn a blind eye to this kind of evil **, so he has to cooperate patiently a little bit, and the only unexpected gain is to get along well with Badri and the family behind him.

After the final verdict, Shakru couldn't wait to leave New Delhi, on the one hand, he wanted to go out and relax, and on the other hand, it was also related to this incident. Because this incident made him deeply feel the chaos of law and order in India, he felt that he had to have a few strong bodyguards around him, otherwise he would not have a sense of security at all.

In fact, he had already considered this as early as a few years ago, and left a foreshadowing, that is, the cooperation with Aeon Corporation of Japan, so he set off for Japan to visit Kazuo Nakayama, the president of Aeon Corporation.

For his visit, although Kazuo Zhongshan was a little surprised, but still very warm reception, after a greeting, Sha Kelu said: "This time to visit the president of Zhongshan, in fact, there is one thing I want to trouble you!" ”

Kazuo Nakayama's eyes narrowed, and he said with a smile: "Mr. Pandit, what you want to say is not the same thing you mentioned to Yoshino in the first place, right?" ”

Shakru nodded and replied: "That's right, I want to trouble President Zhongshan to help me with a word this time, I want to buy some Soviet specialties." ”

"Oh, I wonder what Mr. Pandit wants to buy?"

Shakru stared at Kazuo Nakayama's eyes and said slowly, "Young Swallow! ”

Kazuo Nakayama asked puzzledly, "Xiaoyan?" What does that mean? ”

"A young swallow is a swallow that hasn't left school yet." Shakru explained.

This time, Kazuo Nakayama figured out what Shakru meant, but it was precisely because he understood what Shakru meant, so he was shocked and stammered: "No, Mr. Pandit, it turns out that what you want to buy is a swallow?!" ”

In fact, it is no wonder that Kazuo Nakayama was so surprised, because this swallow is not referring to the kind of winged bird that flies in the sky all day long, but a female agent privately trained by the Soviet intelligence organization KGB, commonly known as "swallow", and the male agent is called "crow", which is a standard Soviet specialty, which is absolutely not available in other countries.

But the problem is that this kind of agent is carefully selected and strictly trained, and is to be used to carry out secret missions, so these people are subject to strict secrecy by the KGB, how can they be willing to sell, so Kazuo Nakayama frowned and said: "Mr. Pandeit, since you also know about the existence of swallows, do you think this is possible to buy?" ”

"Of course, it was absolutely impossible to change before, but now, I don't think it's without a chance, especially since I want to buy a young swallow that hasn't left school, and I'm willing to pay a high price, 100,000 US dollars to hire a swallow for five years, President Zhongshan, do you think it's possible this time?" Shakru said slowly.

Kazuo Nakayama understood what Shakru meant, if it was when the Soviet Union was in full swing, this kind of unreasonable demand would naturally be impossible, but the current Soviet Union is completely incomparable with the beginning, political chaos, economic collapse, people's lives are difficult, officials are busy making money, many active agents are living miserably for a while, not to mention those who are still in school, almost no one cares, until the Russian regime stabilized that all these KGBs were brought over.

In this case, Shakru's request is really not impossible, especially the price he proposes is really tempting for those red-eyed officials who make money. So Kazuo Nakayama thought about it for a long time before he said, "Okay, Mr. Pandit, I'll go and ask for you, as for the result, I can't guarantee it." ”

"I am already grateful to President Zhongshan for his help." Shakru folded his hands in thanks.

The reason why Shakru would rather spend $100,000 to hire KGB swallows is because in his mind these swallows are the most suitable candidates for bodyguards, these girls have been trained since childhood, not only are they very good, but also simple-minded, and most importantly, they are beautiful enough, so such bodyguards are not only safe but also very eye-catching. (The famous Blackwater Company was only established in 1997, and Israel's Mossad was not formed at this time, so there were not many options for the main character.) )

As for the question of loyalty, Shakru is not too worried, he is a businessman and does not participate in political struggles, and India is far away from the Soviet Union, so there is no need to worry about these young swallows bringing any political missions, and most importantly, he believes that the outside world will help him easily capture these young swallows who have never been out of school.

It didn't take long for good news to come from Kazuo Nakayama: "Good news, Mr. Pandit, this is really good news! Lieutenant Colonel Sokov has approved your application for employment and has given you a place in a class full of top students from the Skolvo Red Flag Special School, and now everything is ready for you to sign a contract and pay the commission in Harbin, China. ”

"Going to Harbin?" Shakru asked, surprised.

Kazuo Nakayama explained: "Mr. Pandit, you have to understand this, after all, this kind of thing cannot be made public now, so it is absolutely impossible to sign a contract in Moscow, and India is too far away, so China, which is close to the Soviet Union, has become the most suitable place, and these swallows have also come to Harbin in the name of carrying out a mission in China, so this time I have to trouble Mr. Pandit to go on a long trip." ”

Shakru, who regained his composure, waved his hand again and again: "It's nothing, it's nothing, I just want to go to China to see it." ”
