Chapter 105: Madame Bach's Advice
An ordinary cigarette was only half smoked, and when she suddenly turned around, Lynn saw her newlywed wife leave the dressing mirror and walk towards the door. The suitcase is placed next to the door, the coat is hung on the hanger, the shoes are neatly placed in the shoe rack, and the room is casually looked around, the neat bedding and sheets, the refreshing floor and tabletop, the cleanliness is comparable to that of a star hotel.
Woman this animal...... Don't you have to spend a long time putting on makeup and dressing up before you go out?
The newlywed man who has lived a single life for more than 20 years is very puzzled.
Dinah didn't notice Lynn's surprise, she bent down, leaned against the wall with one hand, picked up the scarlet high-heeled boots with the other hand, lifted her right leg back to the side, and her silky chocolate-colored hair fell naturally down her shoulders.
What a feminine scene!
Lynn watched intently as his newlywed wife put on these mid-top leather boots in a natural and elegant manner, and stomped twice on the spot, so that a pair of straight long legs in black socks were particularly eye-catching. Not only the legs, but also her arms are very slender and slender, wearing this dark green round-neck long-sleeved suit is very shirt-shaped, loose and moderate skirt of the same color wraps around the small and tall hips, and then puts on the windbreaker version of the royal blue jacket, wearing a black velvet top hat, elegant and fresh temperament, dignified and youthful charming.
After putting on her coat and hat, Dinah looked up at Lynn, only to find that her newlywed husband was looking at her with stupid eyes, and laughed shyly and slyly: "Can't you go yet?" β
The pervert's expression was caught, Lynn smiled embarrassedly, pressed the cigarette out in the ashtray, looked at his watch, he had left an extra hour for Dinah to prepare, but he didn't expect her to do it in a quarter of an hour, but it was a little early to go directly to the submarine cave at this time.
"Uh...... Ready to go? Do you want to check it again? β
Like a quartermaster counting the supplies in the warehouse, Dinah stretched out her index finger and counted out of thin air: "toothbrushes, towels, change of clothes, jewelry, combs, facial oil, socks...... I've brought everything I want to bring, and I shouldn't have pulled anything down. Oh, the credentials...... I also brought my documents! β
It doesn't matter if you bring these things with you or not, Lynn has already converted her salary and rewards during this period into pounds sterling and claimed it from the logistics office of the imperial base camp, plus the hundreds of "American knives" earned at the Los Amos atomic bomb test base, and it is enough to change the clothes of the newlywed little wife from head to toe in Switzerland. In addition to the passports obtained by the intelligence service from the Norwegian authorities, they also prepared Finnish passports, Spanish passports and documents proving Spanish diplomatic status. However, these do not need to be carried with you, and the documents provided by the Spanish side are in case of emergency.
Lynn thought for a moment, "Let's go!" While it was still early, we went to say goodbye to Mrs. Bach. β
Although Lynn did not mention his past in the "Vampire" commando, let alone his personal admiration and admiration for Bach, Dinah still responded with a "yes" very obediently and did not ask more.
If you look at it from the perspective of later generations, what a good girl this should be! Lynn thought to herself.
After going out, Lynn carried the suitcase in one hand, and Dinah carried the women's bag, and her hands tightly wrapped around her husband's strong arm, walking unhurriedly as if she was walking as usual. The Bachs lived in the officers' quarters of the Imperial Strategic Staff, with suites identical in structure and size to those of generals of the same rank, and their low-key, discreet approach to life was the same as his style.
"Look at it now, the environment here is still very good, peaceful and calm, warm and moist all year round, and food and clothing are worry-free." Dinah suddenly sighed.
It's okay to talk about it in a normal way, or to discuss it behind closed doors in your room and outside when you leave...... But it's quite sensitive! Dinah...... You're still a 19-year-old girl with no understanding of the dark political struggles, and it won't be long before you know how difficult life is.
Lynn muttered to herself.
"If Europe is now plagued by disasters as they say, and people are being bullied by the American and Soviet forces, can we find a way to find my parents and brothers and bring them with them?" As she said this, Dinah wrapped her arms around Lynn tighter. Perhaps in her eyes, her husband is an all-powerful hero, and as long as he fights for it, the FΓΌhrer will definitely approve it.
Speaking of Dinah's family, Lynn was a little helpless. Even as the chief strategic staff officer of the Imperial Headquarters, he was unable to access the information about the background of the "porcelain dolls", not because he did not have access to the extremely core secrets, but because there were no archives in the "Vault" base in this regard. As a result, he knew very little about Dinah's family, except to hear from her own that her parents and eldest brother's family had been controlled by Himmler's SS and that the officers who had brought her to the FΓΌhrer threatened to throw her family into a concentration camp and torture her to death if she dared to resist or plot against her.
When she said this, Dinah was like a poor innocent lamb, with only fear and no resentment for the hungry wolves.
As the current chief of intelligence at the base, Andri should know something, after all, the title of "porcelain doll" was first learned from him. However, he didn't want to owe a favor to others, he didn't want to give someone a handle, and he didn't want to lose the natural and relaxed feeling he had now because he knew the inside story, so Lynn never made a special trip to Colonel Andri about it, and besides, based on a strong intuition, he believed that the answer didn't have to be searched, and that it would come to the surface sooner or later.
In front of Dinah, Lynn still reassured in a tactful tone: "Actually, you will soon see that the situation on the European continent is not as bad as it is rumored. If your family is still in Denmark, you must have been freed by now, and the British and American troops are only temporarily stationed and will be evacuated soon. β
Dinah leaned against Lynn and whispered, "What about your parents and siblings?" β
Lynn had shown his new wife the pictures in the notebook, and had a general understanding of the condition of the "family" in late 1944 from the contents of the notebook, and there was no news about them since. Lynn rarely thinks about these relatives in other worlds who have never met, if there is a chance, she can help them live a better life with her own strength, but if she really gets together again one day, she doesn't know how to face them.
"I guess they're in the same situation as your family!"
"Hopefully, the day of goodbye won't be too far away." Dinah said softly.
When I came to Mrs. Bach's house, I could hear the sound of music and singing coming from inside before I entered the door, but after knocking on the door, the music stopped, and after asking the identity of the visitor, Madame opened the door. Even though it was nightfall, she was still wearing a long dress, her hair was coiled, and she was stepping on a pair of slippers, which made her even more petite in front of Lynn and Dinah.
"Madame General, we are here to say goodbye to you, and we leave tonight." Dinah squinted and smiled.
is also the general's wife, in Lynn's eyes, a wise and virtuous lady, a gentle and lively, completely different type, completely different style.
Inviting the two couples into the room, Mrs. Bach smiled gently: "Enjoy your wedding trip!" Have fun! β
"This trip may take a little longer, ma'am, please take care!"
Lynn's respect and gratitude for Bach are stronger than this sentence.
For Lynn, Mrs. Bach always maintained an appropriate distance, and her kind expression was also obviously polite.
"Thank you for your kindness, General Gargo! As long as the base is safe and sound, I don't think I have to worry too much. β
Lynn smiled a little awkwardly, indeed, as long as the base is safe and sound, it means that all the expatriates at least have no rebellion.
"Dinah!" Mrs. Bach turned to her colleagues in the troupe and told her in a sisterly tone: "Don't talk casually outside, and especially avoid revealing your identity." Nowadays, it is said that the negligence of one detail can cause irreparable consequences. β
Dinah obediently took her arm: "Don't worry! I'll keep that in mind. Besides, Gargo will definitely protect me well, you don't have to worry. β
This made Lynn feel both happy and pressured, going to a completely unfamiliar country like Switzerland, Finland and Sweden, and on the way he might encounter spies from various countries and other situations, he wanted to bring a barge and two guns to act as the most bullish flower messenger, but the reality does not allow the existence of that kind of wind, and the security personnel arranged for this trip cannot reach the level of the movie plot - 24-hour all-round protection. In order to avoid exposure, they can only secretly carry small firearms at a distance most of the time.
For Dinah, Madame Bach was still more affectionate, and she said softly: "Sit down and have a cup of tea!" β
Lynn looked at her watch intentionally: "No! It's almost time for us to go, but we're here to say goodbye to you. β
In fact, looking at the outfits and luggage of the two of them, Madame Bach could have imagined that this was the case, and she turned her head to look at Lynn for a few seconds, and said, "General Gargo, I think Laurenz would be proud to have a companion like you, and I think he would have liked me to give you a few words of good advice...... The more it looks like a friend, the more likely it is to have a dagger hidden in the sleeve, and the more cold and blunt it looks, it may be your friend. β
This does sound reasonable, and Lynn suddenly remembered the poem Bach had given herself, which also mentioned the crow and the lone wolf, which was also a meaningful reminder of who they were referring to?
Lynn didn't ask explicitly, and if she did, Mrs. Bach wouldn't answer. Things are often like this, if you are clear and discussive, the other party will be suspicious, if you give some hints, the other party will have more eyes to guard against it.
"Thanks for the reminder, ma'am!" Lynn raised her arm slightly, and Dinah returned to her husband's side and took his arm.
"There will be a date later!" Lynn bowed slightly.
Mrs. Bach smiled, raised her petite and slender hand and waved it gently: "There will be a date later!" β
