Chapter 262: The Only One Alive
Hou Wan and Yin Wanmeng rushed to the location that Wei Chiran said, that is, PW's safe house in the western district of Chinatown, and when the door opened, both sides were stunned on the spot.
Of course, Wei Chiran and Chu Xia were surprised, because Lord Chen had said that the Indian side had replied that all but the two of them were dead.
However, now Hou Wan is standing in front of him in a dignified manner, like no one else.
And Hou Wan and Yin Wanmeng also looked at Wei Chiran and Chu Xia in surprise, because the accurate information they got was that only one person was alive, and the others were all dead.
The two sides were shocked for a long time, and Wei Chiran let them enter the house, then closed the door, and directly raised his own questions.
After finishing speaking, Yin Wanmeng said: "What's going on with intelligence? I was also confused, and the intelligence from my follow-up investigation showed that the only body that was not found at the scene was from Hatsu Summer, except for me and the Saker who escaped, and I knew that Hatsu might still be alive at that time. ”
Hou Wan was annoyed: "Why didn't you tell me!?" ”
Yin Wanmeng just smiled bitterly, because she was worried that Hou Wan would track down Chu Xia, but Yin Wanmeng knew that Chu Xia would definitely hide incognito once she fled, so she didn't say anything for the time being, how much could she buy some time for Chu Xia.
And the information Hou Wan got was not specific, only an approximation, so he always thought that the Indian side identified the missing person as himself, but he didn't expect it to be early summer.
Wei Chiran asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Hou Wan shook his head and said: "I don't know, the Indian side spent half a month cleaning up the ruins to find the corpses, the complete corpses and the corpses that were later pieced together were a total of 59, before the accident, there were a total of 62 people in the facility, including 5 Indian special forces and the corpse of the person, but minus Yin Wanmeng and Saker, the rest should be 60 people, and then minus me, Wei Chiran and Chu Xia, who are still alive now, it should be 57, but why did 59 corpses be found?" ”
Wei Chi said: "What the hell is going on? ”
Hou Wan looked at Yin Wanmeng and asked, "Why did you only get one piece of information?" What about other corpses? ”
Yin Wanmeng explained: "I'll think of a way again. ”
Hou Wan shook his head and said, "We should go to the Dead Ear now." ”
Wei Chiran was very surprised: "Isn't the Dark Ear focusing on heretical intelligence?" ”
Hou Wandao: "Since the beginning of the Cold War, the intelligence channels of the Dead Ear have begun to expand, but their intelligence is usually relatively unique and does not involve political and military aspects, but this kind of mysterious event, sold to the intelligence departments of other countries, is far better than sold to the Dead Ear through the black market channel, because the Dead Ear will give an amount that the other party cannot refuse, but this unique intelligence, we need to exchange it for unique things." ”
Wei Chiran was worried about Fang Xunyi at the moment: "Where are Fang Xunyi and the falcon?" What happened to the wood plague? ”
Hou Wandao: "I don't know, I haven't seen them since I recovered, and no one has told me their whereabouts, according to the rules, we shouldn't ask about the whereabouts of these two people at the top." ”
Chu Xia asked Yin Wanmeng: "What happened after you took the falcon away?" ”
Yin Wanmeng recalled: "After the explosion, the underground waterway under the castle did not collapse, I left safely with the falcon, and met the people outside, they asked me to put on a gas mask, saying that it was to avoid toxic gases, who knew that I only noticed that there were hypnotic drugs in the mask after I put it on, and then I fell asleep, and when I woke up again, I was taken to the ghost mother." ”
Wei Chi was surprised: "Ghost Mother!?" Why brought you there? Are you sure it's the lone man who took you away? ”
Yin Wanmeng said: "Sure, because they said the code between me and the contact person at the beginning." ”
Yin Wanmeng was not so much an interrogation as a report, and the lone soldier asked her to recount everything in detail from beginning to end, and after a comprehensive physical examination for her, she was let go, but the order given to her was that she would be arranged to enter the Xun team.
Wei Chiran was puzzled: "What does the Xun team mean?" ”
Chu Xia explained: "The lone intelligence collection team, each team is composed of three to five people, no more than five people, there are a total of eight such teams, named according to the gossip, respectively called Qian, Kun, Xun, Zhen, Kan, Li, Gen, Ze, of course, this is only what we know." ”
Hou Wan said again: "But you don't know, from beginning to end, the lonely army has compiled you, Chu Xia and Fang Xunyi into a Xun group. ”
Wei Chiran looked at Hou Wan: "We have always been a Xun group?" ”
Hou Wandao: "That's right, it has always been, but you don't know that the person in charge of your group is me, and now you have to count Yin Wanmeng." ”
Wei Chi pondered for a moment and said, "So, the reason why Lone Army didn't disband this group is that you are still alive?" Or do they know that Hatsu and I are still alive? ”
Hou Wan shook his head: "I don't know." ”
Wei Chiran finally understood: "After a long time, you, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Security, are actually the only people in charge of us?" ”
Hou Wandao: "There are only a few of you who will carry out the specific task, although there are other people under me, and these people are also deployed by me, but they can be regarded as the eyes of the upper echelons to monitor me, this is the system of a lone army." ”
You may be alone, you may be a group, but you don't know anything else, which ensures that the inner workings of the organization are not known.
Take the Xun team of Wei Chiran and others as an example, in the process of collecting intelligence, maybe the Kun team is monitoring them.
Wei Chiran looked at Hou Wandao and said, "Minister Hou, why do I think you have changed?" ”
Of course, Hou Wan could hear what Wei Chiran meant: "I just want to find out what is going on." ”
Chu Xia also felt that Hou Wan was very strange, Hou Wan seemed to be doing the same thing as himself, trying his best to protect Wei Chiran.
Wei Chi stopped asking, what he was thinking was that if things went on like this, Hou Wan would still be exposed, and his intuition told him that Hou Wan was not a villain.
There are several branches of the Stygian in Chinatown, but they are generally not directly found, and need to be guided by homeless people, which is the same reason that the Stygian used beggars to cover up.
The western part of Chinatown is commonly known as the slum and shack area, where the poorest people live in Chinatown, basically have no regular jobs, and make a living from casual labor, and the people who live here have not received any systematic education, many of them are because they heard that Chinatown is full of gold and failed to pan for gold.
After the decline of the Northwest District, the West District has also become a new lair for criminals, after all, the people and terrain in this place are too complicated, and it is easy for outsiders to get lost when they enter.
Years ago, PW and the police conducted a manhunt to find five bank robbers, the scale of the operation was quite rigorous, but what they didn't expect was that the police action would be resisted by the local residents, for whom the West End was their kingdom and the police were foreign invaders.
So, when PW's special forces and police SWAT entered the West End, they were faced with brutal street fighting. PW and the police don't even know who they're fighting against, why they're hitting them, and which direction the bullets are coming from.
The operation cost a dozen PW operatives and dozens of police officers, and although the five bank robbers were captured, they also paid a huge price, and they had to claim that it was a successful operation, but only they knew how troublesome the West End was.
For the police headquarters and PW, it was not that the law was not held accountable, but because they found out after investigating that it was not organized resistance at all, and these people were not trying to stop the police from arresting people, they just thought that someone had violated their territory, and that was it.
Therefore, if the municipal side tries to bulldoze the West District, it will face a war, and it will also be perceived by public opinion as a slaughter of the poor.
So, to this day, the West End is still that West End.
Before going to the Western District, Hou Wan and the others also changed their clothes, and they dressed more casually, at least they couldn't let the people in the Western District see their identities, of course, the lone army was very good at disguise, after the disguise of Chu Xia, Yin Wanmeng and Hou Wan, Wei Chiran looked like a gangster selling soft drugs in the West District, and Hou Wan was more like a gang member, as for Chu Xia and Yin Wanmeng, they played the role of their female companions.
Of course, Wei Chiran was well aware of the dangers in the Western District, which was a forbidden place for the police, and he had heard that some police officers tried to enter the Western District to investigate the case, and after entering, they disappeared, and no one knew their whereabouts.
However, the West Side does not shelter all criminals, most of the criminals have to enter the West End to hide, on the contrary, they will be kicked out, even if you pay a large amount of money, the end result will be squeezed dry by the people there, and then thrown out of the West Side to be arrested by the police.
In other words, the West End is also an xenophobic place.
After the four of them took the subway, they changed to the bus to come to the outside of the West District, the terrain of the West District is particularly strange, it is a basin, to enter the West District, you must first climb over the hills on all sides, and after going up the mountain, the shack area below is unobstructed, which is such a seemingly difficult place to defend, so far the police have no choice.
After walking up the hill through the trail, Wei Chiran looked at the West District in the center of the basin, the scale of the West District was amazing, coupled with the admonition of his adoptive father Wang Lun from childhood to adulthood, he had only seen the picture of the West District by chance on TV, and this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.
Hou Wan admonished: "The person we are going to see is called Zha Hong, and the homeless people in the entire Chinese town are under his control, and their rival is a beggar." ”
Wei Chiran wondered: "Is there a difference between a beggar and a vagabond?" ”
Hou Wan explained: "On the surface, it is the same, but the essence is different. The homeless man does not take the initiative to beg, you give it to him, he asks for it, and he will do odd jobs from time to time, while the beggar does every day to spread out one of his hands and the other hand to catch the passers-by. ”
Wei Chiran asked, "You seem to be very familiar with this Zahong." ”
Hou Wan just said: "I owe him a favor." ”
Yes? Wei Chiran's face was full of question marks.
