Chapter 144: Overseas Calls (1)
Lin Si'er looked out the window with stupid eyes.
Through the window, she saw the moon hanging high in the sky.
At some point, a fluffy cat, with its tail held high, deftly crawled over the barbed wire from the newly built brick wall two months ago, leaving behind a series of terrible screams, like the howl of a baby.
Possessing a keen sense of smell and being able to climb walls and trees with agility is probably the nature of all cats.
Lin Si'er thought that spring is the season for cats to be in estrus......
She had a few months left in her life not so long ago, and now she may only have a few days left. Death was already closing in on her, haunting her bed.
Lin Si'er moved her gaze to the old piano next to the ground window.
After more than half a year, the skull USB disk that Lu Zhichao forced her to ask for was still very well hidden in a small hole there.
Life was so short that she could no longer steal time from death.
Lin Si'er thought that after her death, this piano might be discarded by Lu Zhichao one day, or sold. If so, all her hard work will be in vain with the skull USB disk that she protects with her life!
Outside, there was another terrible meow of a cat. On that brick wall, you can see the shadow of the cat swaying in the moonlight.
After a while, the cat suddenly stopped barking. It turned out to climb onto the ground window and look into Lin Si'er's basement.
Perhaps, this estrus is called a spring cat, and it has wandered around, and its mate has not been found, but it may be a little hungry.
Sure enough, the cat came in through the ground window.
It was one meter away from Lin Si'er's bed, and stayed very vigilantly for a moment, and finally slipped over, and before Lin Si'er could see its appearance clearly, he took a piece of barbecue in his mouth, quickly crossed the ground window, and escaped in the dark.
After a while, the cat came in through the window again.
This time, it didn't run away again, but was in front of Lin Si'er's bed, chewing directly around the plate.
Lin Si'er remained motionless, for fear of disturbing the cat's eating.
After about ten minutes, the cat seemed to have eaten a lot, and it first jumped to Lin Si'er's bedside, stared at her in the dark for a while, and then climbed up to the ground window. turned his head and said "meow" to Lin Si'er very kindly, before disappearing into the moonlight outside.
Lin Si'er thought that the cat's "meow" just now might be an expression of satisfaction and gratitude for the hospitality she had given.
The next day, it was Colini who was in charge of Lin Si'er's care.
She was apparently just on an errand, and the food she brought in was noticeably worse than that of Del, with no drink, no fruit, only half-cooked potato chips, and a large plate of fishy jerky.
Like every time, Colini did not forget to curse Lin Si'er before closing the door: "You damned woman, you won't last long, it's time to go to God!" ”
Where is God?
Although Lin Si'er does not believe in God, she very much hopes for the existence of God at this time.
She silently thought in her heart that if God had mercy on her misfortune, he would tell Hua Nianping what was going on now, even if she died, he would definitely take revenge on Lu Zhichao for her and expose the face of this international spy to the world.
Lin Si'er knew very well that the reason why Colini viciously cursed her was because he broke into Lu Zhichao's office and copied the evidence of Lu Zhichao's crime into the skull drive under Colini's nose.
Undoubtedly, Colini and Gesfen are Lu Zhichao's accomplices. The three branches of the Harder Company are the head organ of all the conspiracies of these people.
Although more than half a year has passed, Lin Si'er vaguely remembers that in the Skull USB drive, he copied the military and economic secrets of China stolen by Lu Zhichao.
She set up four folders of this information, including information on dozens of high-ranking officials who had fled from mainland China, the numbers, types of troops, and their armaments, the tendencies of China's core political and military leaders, and China's energy needs and crises.
What's more, Lu Zhichao's computer actually stored a variety of electronic maps, covering the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait in China, and even Argentina in South America and Australia in the Pacific Ocean, all the way to Antarctica.
Lin Si'er stared blankly at the darkened roof until her eyes glazed.
This was because she remembered that on the third floor of the house, she had seen a wall chart in Gersfin's room, with a wall chart marked with the copyright of the Harder Company, clearly drawing a lot of dotted lines.
Therefore, she hallucinated on the top of the house and tried to sketch those electronic maps, hoping to find some clues from them.
When she was the deputy editor-in-chief of the social weekly in Beijing, China, she received internal training organized by relevant departments and knew the bottom line of national defense secrets and the military importance of electronic maps.
When it was getting dark, a cat appeared on the newly built wall outside, and it walked along the wall. After a while, it appeared on Lin Si'er's ground window.
This time, Lin Si'er seemed to see clearly, it turned out to be a purebred California long-haired curly-eared cat, the same one she had visited last night.
The curly-eared cat "meowed" at Lin Si'er and jumped to her from the ground window.
It cooed, grinded its paws on the bed, and with great satisfaction, began to eat the dried fish from its plate.
The U.S. curly-eared cat, native to California. In the early eighties of the last century, this type of cat was first discovered, and there are only tens of thousands of them in the whole country.
It is clear that this is not a feral cat, as it wears a very delicate collar around its neck to prevent the parasites that may be present on the cat. Its fur is long, its tail is fluffy, and its body is very cleanly combed.
It seems that the owner of the curly-eared cat not only pays attention to its nutritional balance, rarely gives it a meat diet, but also pays attention to its hygiene.
All cats have a lot of curiosity. When the curly-eared cat ate all the dried fish, he looked at Lin Si'er carefully with a gentle and cute expression.
The cat's eyes are beautiful, with a deep blue sheen, round like a walnut, and its pupils are vertical up and down, dilated in the dimness.
Lin Si'er stretched out her hand and caressed this friend who came from nowhere with great pity.
An indescribable sadness welled up in her heart, filled with gratitude for the curly-eared cat. She thought that when she died without a trace, maybe this cat would be the only one to accompany her through the lonely last moments of her life until she closed her eyes forever.
Just then, there was the sound of the door opening. As if frightened, the curly-eared cat swooped from the bed to the floor window and disappeared.
It was Del who came in, who took over from Colini on the night shift.
"Madame, what would you like to eat tonight?" Del asked, "I can't imagine that you can swallow something in the past two days, and that's so glaring!" ”
In his opinion, Lin Si'er, who is terminally ill, has reached the point where she can't eat these days, and it is hard to imagine how she can eat up the whole plate of food in the past two days when her life is dying.
"Mr. Del, please help me open a bottle of whiskey and give me a large portion of foie gras." Lin Si'er replied.
Del thought that with Lin Si'er's current weak appearance, he was so angry that he didn't even seem to have the strength to open a bottle of wine. He opened a bottle of whiskey and put it in front of Lin Si'er.
"I didn't hear it clearly, Madame mean, do you really want a large portion of foie gras?" Del asked again.
Lin Si'er nodded in confirmation.
