Chapter 196: A Sudden Order

"Let me go to a psychiatric hospital? Whose order is this? Serov looked at the person who read the order with a blank face, this order was too confusing to be a little confused, no wonder Serov was surprised.

If we want to say that the psychiatric hospital has something to do with the work of the KGB, it is certainly not the psychiatric hospital that treats diseases in the hospital, but the place where the prisoners under the KGB are held, and most of the people in it are staunch pro-Western elements in the Soviet Union, including many intellectuals and some former officers of the Soviet Red Army, who are being held in the psychiatric hospital. However, Serov's job is in the foreign intelligence department, and it has nothing to do with the internal department, so it would be no problem to let Alexey of the Second Directorate go there.

"Comrade Serov, I don't know the specifics!" The internal affairs police shrugged and said with a helpless look.

"Oh, I see! Go to a psychiatric hospital and inspect it, right, write a summary report? Serov had the posture of obeying orders, although this order was somewhat nonsensical, and now Serov can only accept it.

In fact, the number of prisoners in the prison system in the Soviet Union has not changed much from three years ago, when it was nearly a million prisoners, and it is still nearly a million. It's just that these prisons scattered all over the Soviet Union have changed a number of prisoners. From counter-revolutionaries of that year to subversive state elements, especially after the 20th Party Congress, there was a strong backlash in Georgia, and the Second General Directorate dispatched many Georgians to prison.

Serov went to report to Director Panyushkin, and by the way asked who had sent him to inspect the psychiatric hospital, but again did not receive a positive answer, because Director Panyushkin did not know either.

"Maybe it's an order from the Presidium of the KGB, but our First General Directorate didn't actually receive this order!" Panyushkin patted Serov on the shoulder and comforted, "It's not long anyway." I can come back in less than two months, and it's nothing to take a look, just like an experience......"

"But I'm from the Department of Foreign Intelligence, and this is the purview of the Second Directorate!" Serov said with a smile and a smile, "There are so many people in the Second General Bureau, why did you let me inspect the mental hospital?" ”

"You don't have to think about it so much. What is the First General Directorate and the Second General Directorate, we are all part of the KGB, let me help you transfer a group of people from the Second General Directorate! Maybe it's a huge amount of work! Panyushkin said lightly, "I'll help you transfer the director of the Second General Bureau to communicate, and send a group of comrades from the Fifth, Sixth, Ninth and Tenth Divisions to go down to the prison to inspect the prison this time, since there is an order from above for you to go down to see the world." If you can find a problem, you can find out the problem of the inspection, understand? ”

"Yes, Comrade Panyushkin!" Serov stood up and saluted, presumably to see the dark side of the Soviet Union once.

The Fifth Division of the Second Main Directorate of the KGB was to deal with all the departments in the Soviet Union that fought against atheists in the name of religion, so that the Soviet people could do their best to resist the bondage of religion. Whether it is Orthodox Christianity, Catholicism, Islam, or Buddhism, all of them are the targets of the Fifth Division's surveillance, and all religions, regardless of their influence, are all monitored by the Fifth Division. The head of the Fifth Department was also the chairman of the USSR Committee on Religious Affairs, which was responsible for religious affairs throughout the Soviet Union.

The 6th Division of the 2nd Main Directorate of the KGB. The work was to deal with the national centrifuges in the Soviet Union, and the three Baltic states and Transcaucasia were all under the key monitoring of the Sixth Division, and nationalists in any region were the key targets of the Sixth Division. The first thing ethnic minorities protest against the government will face is the attack of the Sixth Division.

The 9th Division of the 2nd Main Directorate of the KGB. The main objective was the department whose main objective was to monitor the cultural circles, to monitor writers with pro-Western ideas, to control unofficially sanctioned dissemination, to detect authors who had a favorable opinion of capitalism, and to search the secretly printed press, which helped Suslov a lot. In fact, most of the work of this department is actually dedicated to dealing with public intellectuals.

The work of the 10th Division of the 2nd General Directorate of the KGB was similar to that of the 9th Division, except that the focus of the two departments was different: the 9th Division dealt with public intellectuals, and the 10th Division dealt with all the university students in the Soviet Union.

As soon as Serov received the order to inspect the psychiatric hospital, a group of powerful lineups were instantly assembled around him, which is estimated to be the championship in a year if it is in the basketball league, and there is no need for even a run-in period.

"If I do another prison clearance operation now, it will probably be much more powerful than in Azerbaijan back then!" Serov returned home and reported that the time had been set, and he would leave Moscow in March to inspect the entire Soviet prison system, including the prison system, labor camps, and psychiatric hospitals.

"Didn't you say that the KGB employed 200,000 people and there were millions of informants around the world, so why do you always make you travel?" Valya's little face fell, and her ruddy little mouth chattered endlessly, "Obviously the Second General Bureau should send someone to inspect, why did you ask to go?" Is there no one in the KGB? ”

"And 200,000 internal affairs police and 350,000 internal affairs troops of the Border Guards!" Serov thought about it and continued to pick it up, and then his face instantly changed helplessly and said, "I don't know anything!" I don't even know where this order came from, and no one told me even if I asked......"

Just like Valya said, this inspection of the prison system should be the responsibility of the Second General Directorate, and it has nothing to do with people like Serov in the Foreign Intelligence Department, but things are so strange, and he is the one who goes to inspect in the end.

"Your director's brain is sick...... Valya was holding a huge kitchen knife in her hand, and the pork on the cutting board was considered to be unlucky, and the meat foam chopped by Valya flew sideways, making Serov, who was watching from the side, break out in a cold sweat. Why didn't you usually notice that Valya had such a big hand?

"Can't say that, it's all about work!" Serov spread his hands and said, "I go on a business trip to work, isn't it all for my family to live a safe and happy life, in fact, I am quite happy......

"Hey, you really don't look like a Soviet...... sometimes" Valya unbuttoned her apron and asked Yelena to help her continue to do it, rubbed over and touched Serov's face with her greasy little hands, and said coquettishly, "If other men were to think like that, they wouldn't think that way at all!" I wish women would go out to work every day and support them......"

Don't compare me with the old hairy people who eat, drink and beat their wives, Serov was very dissatisfied with Valya's comparison, a man like Serov, no matter where he is, is like a firefly in the dark, so distinct, so outstanding! Grinding off the lard on his face, Serov's praise for the woman was still a little fluttering.

However, in Serov's opinion, in fact, the current Soviet men are quite good compared to the Russia of later generations, after all, the Soviet government's management is not comparable to that of the Russian Union, and the word liberation is not just a simple talk.

"That's right!" Valya seemed to come back to her senses suddenly, and instructed uneasily, "You go down to inspect this time, but don't look like you're in Azerbaijan, it's not in that kind of place where information is not available, if you come to another prison clearance operation, you will definitely be finished this time, don't start messing around again with a hot head." Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about me and your daughter......"

"It's natural, I'm not going to mess around for you!" Serov seriously agreed, with a family comes scruples, and now even if there is a chance to do another prison clearance operation, he will not do it. In fact, the main purpose of this inspection was to find out some problems in prison management, which was somewhat similar to the work of the Bafu patrol, but I don't know if he, Xie Qingtian, could find an opportunity to plug the loopholes in the Soviet prison's prison management.

is about to go out again, Serov is ready to spend time with his family, usually at home Serov feels that family is actually like this. If you really leave for a month or two, Serov suddenly finds that he is still quite reluctant, just because he usually sees it every day and doesn't feel it.

Before this inspection, Serov also went to the Soviet General Prosecutor's Office and the courts, not necessarily to find out how many unjust cases were found, but mainly to find out the approximate percentage of prisoners in the Soviet prison system, how many were murderers, how many were political and administrative criminals, how many were counter-revolutionaries, and so on......

At the same time, communicate with the comrades of the Second Directorate, after all, Serov is basically incompatible with the prison system except when he was in Azerbaijan, and you must know that several departments of the Second Directorate, almost every one of them is staring at any unusual behavior in the country all the time, this time Serov must communicate well with these departments in order to find problems when inspecting the prison, otherwise Serov will definitely be blinded and cannot find the north......

"This time we will not only inspect the territory of Russia, but also other republics, such as Kazakhstan and Georgia, and see that the prisoners in the prisons are guilty, but we cannot violate the human rights of the prisoners at will! Do you understand? Serov said to the comrades of the 2nd General Directorate of Yishui.

"Since it is the cooperation of our two general administrations, our director has ordered us to cooperate with Comrade Serov's work, and this time we will naturally fully cooperate, and we will definitely not hide the problems found during the entire inspection process!" The comrades of the 2nd Directorate immediately assured that they would never hide any irrational aspects of the prison that they had seen during the inspection just because Serov was a member of the 1st Directorate.
