After the snow stopped at noon, the wind became lighter.

In the silence of the forest, even the sounds of small animals have disappeared.

The whole world seems to be frozen by low temperatures.

Zhou Zhen dragged the sled and walked hard in the snow, and with every breath, he could feel the exhaled heat freeze into ice slag and then fall to the ground.

In such weather, it may be a joke to pee with a stick, but if you want to go big, you can only pull it in your pants.

If you dare to expose your skin, you may not have pulled out the stool, and you may have frozen.

Zhou Zhen definitely didn't want to try, in this extreme weather, survival is a difficult thing.

After walking out for about a kilometer, Zhou Zhen put the sled on a small hill, then put on his skis and began to ski forward in the forest.

Although it was dark and the moon was only the crescent moon left, the surrounding scenery was still faintly visible due to the reflection of snow.

His destination was the labor camp not far to the north, which was very large, with thousands of prisoners, and together with the families of the prisoners, a large residential area was formed in the northern part of the city.

And this large residential area is centered on the labor camp farm, which is distributed in a fan shape.

The prisoners' family area is between the farm and the city, but the two areas are distributed in different jurisdictional units.

This labor camp is very famous, which is why there are international observers like Ayrte, who are actually mainly the Americans, who are now allies of the Soviet Union, as well as representatives of the member countries.

Zhou Zhen wanted to investigate Ayrte, and Ayrte was specifically looking for him today, and he must have his own purpose.

He wouldn't have taken such a big risk just to block the Soviet government!

Zhou Zhen also suspected that Mo had encountered some movie plot, but after searching almost all the movies and TV series about the Soviet Union and the United States, he did not find the same plot.

This period is more sensitive, and the geographical conditions of Russia are unique in the world.

It was easy for them to send spies abroad, and most of them were in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Come to Siberia, stupid!

No spy can hide in this enclosed area, and no spy can withstand the climatic conditions and living conditions here.

It cannot be said that there are no spies for the ideal, but most of the spies are actually for life.

When you come to be a spy in such an almost isolated and extremely cold region, most people will not come.

Like Ayrte, it was directly because of his work that he would come to be a spy with a clear face.

He won't be able to work here for a long time, usually two or three years at most, and then he will return to China.

So, why did he save himself?

Unlike the labor camp that Zhou Zhen had envisioned, it didn't look like a prison at all, just a large lumber mill.

Even prisoners commute to and from work on time every day, but in terms of labor remuneration, there may be some differences from ordinary workers.

Without a strong defense, there are several pieces of the factory area, some are specially logged, some are transported, some are decomposed, and some are made into various furniture.

Zhou Zhen carefully glided and observed for a long time in the places where there were no lights on the periphery, and then determined the central area of the factory according to the location of several factories, cinemas, and gymnasiums.

Then, according to the signboard, the office building of the main plant was found.

He took off his sleigh and, like an ordinary worker, walked around the gloomy streets.

It's a boxy four-story office building, the building is not high, but boxy and looks very imposing.

The windows are not big, and they are all closed because of the snow.

There was no light in the northeast corner of the building, so Zhou Zhen quickly designed the angle and location of the climb, and when he saw that there was no one around, he climbed a few times and went directly to the roof.

The snow on the roof was very thick, and Zhou Zhen didn't care that he would leave footprints on the roof, so he walked over directly and pushed the door of the roof.

The door didn't open open, it was supposed to be plugged in from the inside.

Zhou Zhen noticed downstairs just now that there were guards at the south gate and the west gate, but there were no guards at the north gate and the east gate.

After analyzing the decibel that might make a sound, whether it could reach the guard room on the first floor, Zhou Zhen held the handle with his hand, and then used his skill.

The force was immediately retracted, and the latch inside was damaged, but the sound that occurred was not loud.

This is the roof of the fourth floor, which is far from the janitor's room on the first floor, and there are many walls for sound insulation.

The door was pushed open, and Zhou Zhen entered, then closed the door and listened carefully.

Everything went smoothly and didn't disturb the people here.

Zhou Zhen waited for about ten minutes before slowly walking down.

The secretary's office, the political commissar's office, and the outreach office here are Zhou Zhen's goals.

In the offices of the secretary and commissar, there should be information about Ayrte, even if there is no archive and outreach office.

There was also the specific residence of Ayrt, and he couldn't ask Louise and them directly, so he had to investigate it himself.

Things went well, and Zhou Zhen found all the information of the working group in the filing cabinet in the first office.

Born in Pittsburgh in 1902, Ayrt was originally a lawyer before joining the League of Nations.

He is now the head of the post-war processing team in Krasnoyarsk, so he is also valued by the Soviet side.

As for his residence, it was not arranged on a farm, but in an upscale guest house in the city.

Zhou Zhen found the location where he lived on the map, but he didn't want to go.

There are very few people on the streets here at night, pedestrians will be in the spotlight, and he is still a fugitive.

What's more, he didn't come over tonight, apparently because of something or a social interaction.

Even if it passes, it is not always possible to find someone.

As for the evidence, this is even more impossible, where he lives, I am afraid that spies will check it several times a day.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen suddenly thought that even if he had food, he couldn't move it all to Louise's house at once.

Everyone knows how much money her family has!

But it's easy to do, dig a hole in the forest near their house and hide it.

Without taking anything with him, Zhou Zhen quietly came to the first floor and came to the north gate, where the gate was blocked from the inside by a square log.

Zhou Zhen took away the square wood and left silently.

This operation did not have any effect, and if you want to know Ayrt's purpose, you can only start with him.

Leaving the farm, Zhou Zhen returned to the place where he had stored his sleigh, and then dragged the sled to the side of the road only two hundred meters from Louise's house.

Then Zhou Zhen moved ten bags of flour from the space, as well as various canned food, snacks, and several sets of women's underwear and sweaters.

Ten bags of flour and 500 catties are enough for their mother and daughter to eat for a few months.

It's not that Zhou Zhen is unwilling to give more, it's that their family doesn't have a place to store it.

Zhou Zhen returned to the front of the house first, sensing that there were only three people in the house, so he relieved himself this time and pulled the sleigh back.

As soon as he stopped, Louise had already opened the door, and behind her, there were two little heads full of anticipation.

Seeing the sleigh behind Zhou Zhen, several of them had smiles on their faces.

"Do you have a cellar?"

"There's one next to the boiler, but it's been a long time since I've been using it."

Zhou Zhen nodded. "There are still things, but I'm afraid that you don't have a place to store them here, and more importantly, I'm afraid of arousing suspicion."

"We can dig another cellar so that we can put things in and not be afraid of going hungry," Yulenka said. ”

Zhou Zhen smiled and asked, "Have you ever been hungry?" ”

She nodded earnestly. "We all almost starved to death at one time."

Zhou Zhen had nothing to say at this moment, he carried a flour bag in his hand and carried the things on the sleigh into the house.

Several women were not idle, the two children were light, and Louise also held a bag of flour, not disgusted at all with flour on her body.

After two or three times of moving things, Zhou Zhen stuffed the sleigh into the storage room under the house, and helped stuff a few more large wooden blocks into the boiler.

When Zhou Zhen entered the house, Louise helped Zhou Zhen take off the cotton coat outside like a virtuous wife.

Sophia took a dry towel in her hand and helped Zhou Zhen pat the dust on her body.

Even the youngest Yulunka helped Zhou Zhen prepare a cup of coffee and brought it over.

Zhou Zhen sat in the chair like a big man, enjoying the worship of the three women.

If only there was a sofa, this chair is really awkward.

Due to the lack of fabric, the hardwood never had even a cushion.

"Hot water ready, come and wash your hands."

Yulunka saw Zhou Zhen get up and hurriedly took the coffee. "I'll hold it for you...... The coffee was so good......"

Zhou Zhen smiled and touched her head, this touching head kill was very offensive to this girl who lacked fatherly love, she squinted and laughed very enjoyably.

Zhou Zhen washed his hands in the basin, and the water temperature was just right.

"With so many things, I'm not afraid that I won't be able to get through this winter."

"It's not safe here, or there's more food."

Sophia suddenly came out with a corset, picking it with her fingers with some disgust. "Why is this thing?"

Zhou Zhen shrugged. "Originally, I wanted to bring it back to my wife, but unfortunately I didn't take the children's clothes at that time."

She muttered in Russian, with some dissatisfaction: "I'm not a child......"

Zhou Zhen still pretended not to understand, and deliberately asked, "What did you say?" ”

Embarrassed, she turned around and walked into her mother's bedroom. "Nothing."

Zhou Zhen looked at Louise and said with a smile: "Don't worry about me, you go and see those things, you have to put them all away, don't let people find out." ”

She nodded, pointed to the boiler in the middle of the living room and said, "I'll hide things in a moment." ”

There is a dark plate there, which can be opened, and usually the boiler is added from there, and after going down, there is a cellar.

"This cellar is not safe either, I'll take a look tomorrow and help you dig a cellar out."

Yulenka was not as interested in those things as she was in Zhou Zhen, she took a sip of her coffee cup and handed it to Zhou Zhen again. "Why are you so nice to us?"

Zhou Zhen didn't want to tell her that this was the right medicine, knowing what they lacked and what they were specifically given.

"You're cute, of course I can't watch you starve to death......"
